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. Naval records lists him as serving first as TIE-Interceptor squadron leader in the 214th Escort Company (Apollo) inside the 21st Sector Fleet under command of Commodore Kirov Quel-Droma.

With the reorganisation that occured after the abandon of the Galactic Quadrant system by the Imperial Navy, Uebles served as officer inside the 5th Imperial fleet under then Commander Quaxo. His exceptional leadership skills quickly lead him to become Lieutenant then Lieutenant-Commander and XO of the 5th Fleet as the following testimonies of Commander Quaxo confirm:

"My XO, Lt Count Uebles, is the best men I've ever had under my command. It will be an incomparable Fleet CO, if I may say so, though I prefer he still works with me of course. He is always proposing new projects, and making them reality. His dedication is an example. His activity is incredible. When I ask for something I know I will have some ideas or, in the worst case, at least one mail back in a few hours. I can't be more explicit about him." — Commander Quaxo

Later, Uebles was promoted as Captain and assigned as Commanding Officer of the 12th Sector Fleet. (circa Y1 D180)

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.
