"Grand Master Skywalker meets with two high-ranking members of the Imperial Remnant to discuss a new and dangerous threat. As Head of State Vitor Riege is preoccupied with squabbles between various Moffs, these two officials head to the leader of the Jedi Council as a last resort"
I made this in an afternoon after rereading Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse. The door slides and the chairs swivel, and there is a black plate for a viewscreen. (I did not have any tiles).
Jacen Solo (later Darth Caedus) was The son of Han and Leia Organa and Solo and once a leading Jedi Knight who proved crucial in defeating the Yuuzhan Vong and protecting the galaxy during the Yuuzhan Vong War.
But Solo's desire to protect the galaxy and his increasing willingness from accepting any cost caused facilitated his fall to the dark side of the Force and became the new dark lord of the Sith, using the name of Darth Caedus.
His trait sady had similar to corrupted his grandfather, the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker, into Darth Vader.

"I'm not a slave anymore. Yours or anyone's."―Rianna Saren
Rianna Saren was a female Twi'lek slave escapee who became a criminal and, afterward, a Rebel Alliance heroine.
Early in her life, Saren was sold into Imperial slavery to the Zabrak Zarien Kheev, only to escape on the planet Coruscant to follow a criminal path.
In 0 BBY, she was contacted by the mercenary Kyle Katarn, who introduced her to the Rebellion.
Saren undertook several missions for the Rebellion that included the theft of an Imperial shipment from a Black Sun warehouse on Coruscant, the destruction of an agricultural research vessel captured by Black Sun to test new kinds of drugs, and the destruction of the Imperial Mirkanite Mining Facility on the planet Mustafar.
During these missions, Saren met an Arakyd Industries security droid named Zeeo, who became her only companion. She had also discovered the whereabouts of her former enslaver, Kheev, and decided to exact her revenge, but he soon captured her.
Saren was sent to the prison world of Despayre, the construction site of the first Death Star, an Imperial superweapon capable of destroying entire planets.
She escaped from Despayre just before the Empire destroyed the planet in a test of the Death Star's capabilities before infiltrating the battle station itself.
Saren was in a conversation between Kheev and Darth Vader, overseeing the Death Star project. She learned about the Death Star's plans on the planet Danuta and realized that the Empire was her true enemy.
Her report on Despayre's destruction provided valuable information about the battlestation's firepower to the Rebellion. Saren later escaped the Death Star and arrived in Danuta, where she killed Kheev and secured updated plans for the Death Star.
Thanks to her actions, the Rebellion received the complete schematics of the Death Star and eventually destroyed the Imperial superweapon.
Juno Eclipse was a Human female officer in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War, having defected from the Galactic Empire after she was accused of treason.
Celeste Morne was a Human female Jedi Master who served the Jedi Covenant as a Shadow, an agency that consisted of Jedi whose identities were erased from the Order's records. She dedicated herself to the Covenant's cause after the loss of her home and family ties in the Great Sith War. In 3963 BBY the Covenant assigned Morne a mission to retrieve the Muur Talisman, an artifact owned generations prior by the Sith Lord Karness Muur that gave the wearer control over the mutant rakghoul creatures.
Furthermore, Morne was tasked to bring fugitive Padawan Zayne Carrick to justice. Over the course of her mission, however, she came to doubt Carrick's culpability in the Padawan Massacre of Taris, for which he had been implicated by the members of the First WatchCircle of the Covenant.
As she fought through the obstructions to her mission, including the unexpected outbreak of the Rakghoul Plague on the planet Jebble and her own doubts about Carrick, Morne fell under the possession of the Muur Talisman.
In order to protect the galaxy from herself, Morne allowed Carrick to seal her in Dreypa's Oubliette. She would remain there in stasis until 19 BBY, when the Sith Lord Darth Vader obtained the oubliette and released her.
She emerged haunted by the spirit of Karness Muur and discovered that the Sith ruled the galaxy in the new era she found herself in. Enraged at this discovery, Morne dueled Vader, but after being defeated used the Muur Talisman to force him to retreat.
For approximately nineteen years afterward she lived secluded on a desolate moon, until she was visited by a company of elite stormtroopers, all of whom she turned into rakghouls in a moment of temporary insanity.
Soon after, Rebel Alliance leaders Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa conducted a mission to recover what they thought to be a secret Imperial weapon, but was in fact, Morne.
She and her Sithspawn attacked Skywalker and Organa, who managed to barely escape with their lives. Morne took an abandoned transport and headed off into space to explore the galaxy.
After a hundred years—the nature of her bond with Muur and the Talisman had endowed her with long life—Morne took control of the Pellaeon-class Star Destroyer Iron Sun and took it into the Deep Core, intending to hold Muur there forever. She then met bounty hunter Cade Skywalker, and after witnessing him cure himself of the rakghoul plague with the Force, joined Skywalker in his plan to assassinate the current Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Krayt. T
heir quest took them to the planet Had Abbadon, where Morne allowed for the knowledge of Skywalker's presence in the Deep Core to reach Krayt.
He arrived and a battle ensued, ultimately resulting in his defeat to the strike team and death at the hands of his own servent Darth Wyyrlok. With the Dark Lord finally eliminated, Morne focused on her own dilemma: the fear that the Sith spirit trapped inside her would soon dominate her completely. She asked Skywalker to free her of Muur's influence, and Skywalker obliged, killing her with his lightsaber.

In Legends of old Expanded Universe
Gilad Pellaeon, nicknamed Gil, was a dedicated Human male naval officer, serving for seven decades in the fleets of the Galactic Republic, Galactic Empire, Imperial Remnant, and Galactic Alliance, and rose to the position of Supreme Commander for the latter two governments.
He began his career in the Republic's Judicial Forces, where he ascended the ranks and captained the assault ship, Leveler, during the Clone Wars.
Pellaeon developed a strong attachment to the navy as an institution, and when the Republic became the Empire, he continued serving aboard the Star Destroyer Chimaera.
At the Battle of Endor, the Chimaera fell under Pellaeon's command, issuing the retreat order.
Captain Pellaeon remained one of the fleet's more prominent officers until the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who selected the Chimaera as his flagship and made Pellaeon his right-hand man.
Pellaeon grew to respect and admire Thrawn throughout the Grand Admiral's campaign against the New Republic. Still, when Thrawn was assassinated at the Battle of Bilbringi, Pellaeon again was forced to call a retreat. After Thrawn's death and the failed return of Palpatine, the Empire crumbled around Pellaeon.
He found himself serving as the second-in-command of the warlord Treutlen Teradoc. Still, when Admiral Natasi Daala shared with him her vision of rebuilding the Empire and ending warlordism, he defected to her. He played a key role in forming the Imperial Remnant.
Upon Daala's defeat at Yavin 4, she turned command of the Remnant over to Admiral Pellaeon, making him Supreme Commander of the Imperial Fleet.
He rebuilt the fleet and fought a series of campaigns against the New Republic but was frequently driven back as the Remnant's resources shriveled.
In 19 ABY, He finally accepted that the only way for the Empire to survive was through a peace treaty and forced the Council of Moffs to accept a truce with the New Republic. When the Imperial capital fell to the extragalactic Yuuzhan Vong invaders years later, Pellaeon played on the Imperial fleet's absolute loyalty to him to overcome the old-line Moffs' resistance and join the newly formed Galactic Alliance, leading a series of victories over the Yuuzhan Vong.
At the war's close, Pellaeon retired but returned to serve as the supreme commander of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force when his predecessor Sien Sovv was killed.
In that capacity, Pellaeon led the Galactic Alliance through the Swarm War and the early stages of the Second Galactic Civil War before once more retiring.
He returned to service as the head of state of the Imperial Remnant. Still, He died in 41 ABY at Fondor, assassinated by Tahiri Veila when he refused to support Darth Caedus's faction of the Galactic Alliance.

Gilad Pellaeon was a male individual who served as a captain in the naval forces of the Galactic Empire, commanding the Imperial Star Destroyer Harbinger as part of Grand Admiral Balanhai Savit's Third Fleet. When Savit was exposed as a traitor stealing components from Project Stardust, Pellaeon sided with Grand Admiral Thrawn and Commodore Karyn Faro and helped them arrest his superior.
After Savit was relieved of his duty, Pellaeon and the Harbinger were reassigned to assist Thrawn's Seventh Fleet.
With Thrawn, Pellaeon participated in the Imperial blockade of the planet Lothal until the rebel Spectres and their allies liberated it shortly before the Battle of Yavin.
During the liberation, all Imperial starships present were destroyed by flocks of the space-faring purrgil, and Pellaeon's communication with the Grand Admiral was quickly cut off.
