Larin Gendash was a Vice Admiral in the Dlarit Navy and served as the Captain of the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Harbinger.

History

Larin was born on Coruscant during the pinnacle of the Empire's glory. He was the middle son of Maxillian Gendash, a high ranking Imperial politician and Jax'aine Gendash, a ship's design engineer. As a child, Larin grew up in an upper-class privileged household. He did not see his parents very often, but he was more than given all the civil liberties his family name allowed him. But, all of this soon ended. After the Empire's defeat at Endor and its subsequent downfall, His family left Coruscant, taking him and his two brothers to the still-Imperial controlled planet of Yaga Minor. From an early age Larin knew he wanted to be in the Imperial Navy. And, while he was duly encouraged to pursue politics like his father and older brother, he would not be swayed.

As soon as he could, he enrolled in Imperial Fleet Academy on Yaga Minor. Here he excelled in a number of subjects, including both naval and intelligence tactics. Early on Larin proved himself to be extremely resourceful and unorthodox in battle simulations. He also excelled at the fine art of interrogation. It seemed that Larin possessed a keen ability to tap into Human pain, a foreshadowing perhaps of his life to come. He was encouraged to enter Imperial Intelligence, but turned down the offer. It was the Navy or nothing for him. With honors Larin moved onto his officer training, where he was taught the skills of a line captain. Because of his high academic status, he was allowed to attend the prestigious and secretive Imperial Academy. So, it was under the flag of the fledgling Empire that Larin graduated from the Academy. He was stationed on Parmac, where he was given the somewhat disappointing task of serving as an on planet assistant to the regional Moff.

Where was the glory of battle? Where was the rush of bridge command? Larin was told that there were simply not enough capital ships left in the Empire that had room for an officer such as himself. He was told he had to wait. Not entirely believing this reasoning, Larin was forced to accept his station in life, an unorthodox officer stuck in a desk job. Watching the Empire falling into continual disarray, Larin married and carried out menial interrogations and transport errands for the moff. He was seriously considering a career change when his chance came.

It seemed that Grand Admiral Thrawn had returned from the Unknown Regions. Larin was assigned to serve aboard the Chimera, Thrawn's flagship. He had finally been given his turn at glory and the means to witness the destruction of the New Republic for good. Still relatively young and inexperienced, Larin began to learn the skills that he had always yearned for. Carefully laid out plans, brilliant unorthodox tactics, respect for his fellow officers, the proper use of men and resources, all these things and more he learned as a lieutenant on the Chimera. For the first time in his life, he saw the impending doom of the Rebellion and the restoration of the Empire.

However Thrawn was eventually defeated and the Chimera was forced to retreat into the Outer Rim with the rest of the Imperial fleet. Larin had witnessed the Grand Admiral's association first hand and found he was greatly troubled. Yet, he had not known then that while away, his wife and two daughters had been killed in the midst of the chaos in a violent political uprising on Parmac. When hearing the news, Larin immediately blamed the Rebels for their deaths. The true perpetrators are still unknown to this day.

Embittered and angry, Larin turned his back on everything and went into recluse. After a short time he realized he would never be satisfied until he was back in space again. With all that he loved dead, he decided he was married to the Navy now.

Taking a job with the Dlarit Corporation he quickly proved his capability and after the fleet was regrouped was given command of the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Harbinger. He slept little and commanded with frightening bravado.

In 29 ABY, Trevarus Caerick boarded the Harbinger along with a squad of black clad Obsidian Cohort. Larin quickly reacted hitting the alarm key but before he could reach his side blaster he was shot in the forehead and killed. The Harbinger was then taken over by Trevarus Caerick and before the Dlarit Navy could react was gone. This began the Battle of Lehon.

Physical Description

Larin was a tall man of with a trim well kept build. He had wavy dark brown hair that has begun to Grey prematurely at the temples. His eyes were a clear icy blue that can be both good nature and extremely intimidating. Despite the years of war and age, Larin remained a more distinguished version of the handsome dashing youth that he used to be. At almost all times, Larin could be seen wearing the standard uniform of an Dlarit officer. His knee boots were always polished to a sparkle, as he prided himself on being well groomed. It should be noted that Larin, being very resourceful, had been known to use his physical appearance to his advantage if needed.
