Oonoo

## Grand Admiral No

**Oonoo**, known colloqually as **No**, was a Force-Sensitive Celegian male, born in 83 BBY on Celegia. He was a realtor and eventually a tycoon, then ascended the ranks of the New Galactic Empire to serve as a Grand Admiral.

## Biography

### **Before the Empire**

Oonoo was born on Celegia long before the Vong ever touched its surface, his name given to him in honour of the namesake of their sister system - Noori.

He spent his early years excelling in business, attending prestigious academies of Galactic finance before creating a string of non-human cafés, transport centres, and hotels that quickly thrust him into high society. He maintained a mysterious profile as much as he could, changing his name to simply “No” - and pursuing doctorate studies in naval and specialized military tactics. His pursuits, switched to organic technologies and applications - rather morbidly inspired by the Vong’s effects on his home planet. His business then turned to providing polymerised material and research into the uses of biochemical technologies.

### **Strategist for the New Galactic Empire**

He made a deal with the New Galactic Empire in order to continue his studies within their ranks, and eventually even the Empress took notice of him. After only a short time spent guarding Dantooine and its sprawling Academies and Palace, the Empress instead requested his presence aboard her ship - with great urgency. His recommended renovations to her ship, palatial bunkers, and fleets were only just completed mere weeks before her final disappearance. He was one of the privileged few to know she was not yet deceased, but even he could not contact her.

He was acting as Grand Admiral aboard the *Triumphant* as the fleet fled into the Unknown Regions, assisting them in fending off the technobeasts that invaded the ship.

His duty was to protect the Empire, and mechu deru did not frighten him. Very little did.

### **Death**

When the Triumphant arrived on Odessen and faced the Pius Dea and other such cultists, it seemed that there would be no escape - but No, a creative-minded strategist - utilized the extra cyanogen gas that he required to live by breaking his chamber as well as releasing the toxic gas from other canisters he had brought from the ship. Cyanogen, being highly toxic, was an effective way to kill those that threatened the Empress' loyalists. No died on Odessen, having sacrificed himself to a death of suffocation in order to save the Empress' Sword, Alisha Tano, from immolation, and allow the Imperials to escape.

## Personality

The Grand Admiral was known to be cold, calculating, easily annoyed by those below him. Most importantly he was loyal entirely to his cause - and he was fearless. He served the Empress without question, becoming one of her closest advisors and even a friend, which was a testament to his wisdom and selfless nature. He may have been cold, or judgmental, but he was not so without reason, and was rarely so to those he respected.

## Force Powers and Abilities

No possessed only the limited Force abilities available to his species, such as telepathy, though he was able to use it effectively when required, speaking with crew and officers frequently through it.

His greatest abilities were his wit and cunning, which enabled him to win naval battles with a relative ease, as well as enabling him to keep the *Triumphant* intact through its journey into the Unknown Regions.
