Name:Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin
Age: 70
Race:Human
Personality: Over ambitious. and very short tempered
History:Sometime prior to 44 BBY, he married Lady Tarkin, a member of the Motti family on Phelarion, allowing him to begin reaping the benefits of their lucrative megonite moss mining business. He was but a youth at the time.
Tarkin began his career in the Eriadu military. Around 39 BBY he met Raith Sienar; they were apparently classmates at a military academy. By 33 BBY, he had become lieutenant governor of the Seswenna Sector. That year, his mansion was, for a short time, the residence of Supreme Chancellor Valorum, who was on Eriadu representing the Galactic Republic at the Eriadu Trade Summit.
Governor Tarkin.
Governor Tarkin.
By that time he had become acquainted with Senator Palpatine; as early as 29 BBY, Tarkin began to work closely with Palpatine, sharing his views on the superiority of Humans and the need for strictly enforced order, and helping him arrange (and stall the investigation into) the murder of the Trade Federation Directorate. Palpatine made him full governor of the Seswenna Sector, as well as appointing him commander of the Republic Outland Regions Security Force. Also at this time, Tarkin had been ordered to keep a watch over Coruscant's Jedi and prevent them from expanding their influence; although it is unknown for sure who gave him this order, it was almost certainly Palpatine. To this end, he claimed to have spied on Jedi conversations within the temple by passing a broken droid with hidden listening devices onto a young Padawan Jedi Anakin Skywalker, known to be a talented and religious repairer of droids. At this time, he lived in the Prime Senate Spire.
In 29 BBY, he launched an unsuccessful attack on the living planet Zonama Sekot, and presented Palpatine with Raith Sienar's plans for a moon-sized battle station. This would be his first encounter with the Jedi Anakin Skywalker, who would become a future ally in the Galactic Empire.
During this time Tarkin's brother, Gideon, served as Minister of Defense for the Seswenna Sector, presumably appointed by Wilhuff. He was appointed by Emperor Palpatine to not only look over the construction of the Death Star but to command over it after completion. Wilhuff fought against the rebels at the battle of yavin. He and his command staff including Admiral Motti escaped in a shuttle undetected 15 minutes before the destruction of the Death Star fearing the worse. They stayed in hiding in the Maw with Admiral Daala until after the battle of endor. Returning to the Emperor after they Empire won the battle begging for forgiveness and presenting the Death Star prototype Tarkin regained his status in the Imperial Navy and regaining Command of the Second Death Star.
Weapons (If any): A Blaster pistol
Sample RP, in character:
Tarkin knew somehow things from that point on were going to get rough. His creation his lifes work, his life itself were now gone. He was a coward, He should have stayed behind with his men but Motti kept persisting.
He Sat there in the Shuttle with Motti, High General Tagge, His squad of elite stormtroopers Tarkin's Death Squad, and the pilots. He was fearful of what would happen to him and what would happen to his wife. At least he had a place to go.
The Maw Facility he had placed during the construction of the Death Star. Admiral Daala would be pleased of his arriving. There at least he had four Star Destroyers and the Prototype. The Stars streaked by as they flew through space on their way to the facility. How did he get himself into this? he couldn't help but wonder.
Would the Emperor ever forgive him? it was the one question through all the many running through his mind as he ran for his life. The one question that would haunt him the rest of his days........
