Everend Kane

Everend Kane was a human male who served as a Fleet Admiral of the Imperial Navy during the era of the Galactic Empire. As an Imperial officer, Kane became well known for his brilliant intellect and strategic ability. He believed that in order to achieve victory in war, one must remain one step ahead of their enemy, which meant studying them. As such, he dedicated himself to understanding the philosophy, art, and culture of his opponents, which included the Milanians and the Jedi. When Moff Porsha Odum requested a strong commander capable of defeating the rebels on the planet Milano, Fleet Admiral Kane accepted the challenge, intending to dismantle the rebellion one step at a time.

Born on the Mid Rim planet Var-Shaa, Kane desired to travel the galaxy as a commander of a starship. His interests led him to attend the Royal Imperial Academy on Coruscant, intending to rise within the ranks of the Imperial Navy. Upon his graduation from the academy, Kane's early career was highly successful, receiving a series of promotions until he received the rank of Fleet Admiral from Emperor Palpatine himself. At the height of his career, Fleet Admiral Kane served as the commanding officer of the 2nd Fleet, with his Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Stormwind serving as the flagship. Deployed to the Milano sector a few years after the formation of the Empire, Kane sought to defeat the rebels led by Harrison Bellick.
