This article is a stub, meaning that it should be expanded. You can help the Holocron by adding to it.

Count Greyson Uebles, also known as Darth Cypher, was the ninth Emperor of the Galactic Empire.

His reign was marred with numerous defections of officers still loyal to Charon and to other factions. However, he also presided over possibly the greatest victory in Imperial history at the Battle of Beta, personally executing Falleen Federation King Eldric Kuraine.

Biography

Early Life

Very little is known of Uebles' life prior to joining the Imperial service. It is known that he was born on Coruscant, probably to an aristocratic family. There is some evidence that after his ascension to the throne Uebles had any documentation of his family and origins destroyed.

Imperial Career

During either the reign of Emperor Spytek or Piett, Uebles joined the Imperial Navy. As he rose through the ranks, he became part of the group of senior Naval Officers close to Grand Admiral Gorn Veynom, including Admiral Darth Knyte, Admiral Jennifer Dreighton and Admiral Gunther von Esling. After Emperor Connel took the throne and Veynom disappeared to the Unknown Regions, Uebles briefly transferred to the newly formed Imperial Intelligence, where he was the first Deputy Director. The growing unrest amongst Veynom's former supporters spilled over though, and he defected to the Imperial Core.

Within the Imperial Core Uebles rose fast, holding the posts of Navy Commanding Officer, Praetorian Guard Commanding Officer and eventually deputy to Lady Protector Dreighton. After the merger between the Imperial Core and Sith Empire formed the Dark Empire he beceame Minister of Defense.

Legacy

Uebles' legacy is a mixed one. While the Empire bled experienced officers chafing under his rule after Charon, the victory at Beta resulted in perhaps the strongest surge of pro-Imperial feeling in the Empire's history, as well as crippling the Falleen Federation for many years.
