Trey Connel was the sixth Emperor of the Galaxy (Year 1 Day 212 — Year 1 Day 320). He had previously served as Imperial Army Chief of Staff and Chief of Staff to Emperor Piett. During his long service as Army Chief of Staff, Connel's relationship with his naval counterpart, Gorn Veynom, was notoriously stormy and culminated in mutual accusations of treason.
The only Imperial Army officer to ever serve as Emperor, Connel's reign was brief and most notable for the defection by supporters of his rival, Veynom, to form the Imperial Core. After his abdication in favour of Mccarthur, Connel disappeared for a period before returning as Minister of Defence. Many years later, during the reign of Emperor Vodo Bonias, he would again serve as Army Chief of Staff.

Biography
Early Years
Imperial Career
Connel was Commanding Officer of the Imperial Army when Spytek abdicated the throne. In the absence of a clear successor, the Empire quickly divided into those supporting Connel's claim and those supporting rival claimant Admiral Gorn Veynom. However, while Connel's forces engaged Veynom's in orbit above Coruscant, Grand Admiral Piett' Super Star Destroyer Fury and his fleet appeared out of hyperspace and proceeded to engage and destroy both Connel and Veynom's forces. Connel was spared further punishment and remained in his position under Piett, gradually ascending to Piett's Chief of Staff and second-in-command of the Empire.
Ascension to throne, stepping down
Connel remained as Mccarthur's Minister of Defence for several months before finally retiring from Imperial service. He briefly returned under Vodo Bonias to again lead the Imperial Army before retiring for a second time.
