Valco Pandion was a [[Moff]] during the [[Age of the Empire]]. Following the [[Battle of Endor]], Pandion proclaimed himself "[[Grand Moff]]" in the wake of [[Darth Sidious|the Emperor]]'s [[death]]. He commanded a [[Malastare communications station|communications station]] on the planet [[Malastare]]. Pandion fled when the station came under attack from the [[New Republic]], the government created by the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic|Rebel Alliance]], and abandoned his forces. As one of the highest ranking officials left in the [[Galactic Empire|Empire]], Pandion was the target of a New Republic bounty that had been imposed on several Imperial "war criminals."<ref name

[[Standard month/Canon|Months]] after the pivotal [[Battle of Endor|battle]] at [[Endor]], as one of the highest ranking officials left in the [[Galactic Empire|Empire]], Pandion was invited to a [[Emergency summit on Akiva|secret summit]] on [[Akiva]] by [[Admiral]] [[Rae Sloane]]. The goal of the summit was to determine the fate of the Empire by a council known as the [[Imperial Future Council]]. Pandion felt that a big show of strength is what the Empire needed to regain its place in [[the galaxy]], often telling the other members of the council that they must bring their [[Imperial Navy|fleet]] to war, but was overruled by Admiral Rae Sloane on many occasions. The two grew wary of each other and often argued over who should make the important decisions. The summit's attendees were unable to come to a decision before captured [[New Republic]] [[pilot]] [[Wedge Antilles]] escaped their custody and sent a summons to war to the New Republic. During the [[Rebellion on Akiva]], their escape [[yacht]] was damaged and crashed aboard the [[Vigilance (Imperial-class)|''Vigilance'']]. Sloane quickly boarded another [[shuttle]] and made her escape, but Pandion snuck aboard and attempted to subdue the admiral, presuming to take her place at the head of the fleet. When he confronted her, Sloane shifted the control stick of the shuttle and caused Pandion to fall over. She then wrestled his [[blaster pistol]] from him, shooting him, and ejecting him from the [[cockpit]]. The shuttle then blew up after Sloane made her escape in a pod, [[Death|killing]] Pandion.<ref name="Aftermath" />

At the invitation of [[Admiral]] [[Rae Sloane]], Pandion traveled on his [[Imperial-class Star Destroyer|Imperial Star Destroyer]] ''[[Vanquish]]'' to attend a [[Emergency summit on Akiva|secret summit]] on the [[planet]] [[Akiva]]. The goal of the summit was to determine the fate of the Empire by a council known as the [[Imperial Future Council]]. After arriving above Akiva, Pandion traveled to the planet's [[capital]] [[city]] [[Myrra]] in a [[Lambda-class T-4a shuttle|''Lambda''-class shuttle]]. His fellow delegates included [[General]] [[Jylia Shale]], the Imperial adviser [[Yupe Tashu]], and the Imperial financier and [[slavery|slaver]] [[Arsin Crassus]]. Pandion and the other delegates were spotted by the [[Devaronian]] [[bounty hunter]] [[Jas Emari]], who wanted to collect a bounty on his head. However, Jas was attacked by Sloane's shuttle and subsequently captured by the local [[Devaronian]] [[crime lord]] [[Surat Nuat]].<ref name="Aftermath"/>

Grand Moff Pandion and his fellow Imperials were hosted by [[Satrap]] [[Isstra Dirus]] at his [[Satrap's Palace|opulent palace]]. While dining, Pandion inquired about Sloane's encounter with the "insurgent" Jas. Sloane assured the delegates that everything was alright and told them to settle down for dinner. When Pandion persisted with questioning Sloane about the insurgent, Sloane claimed that the individual was a local insurgent with no ties to the New Republic After learning that Sloane had captured the New Republic [[starfighter]] [[pilot]] [[Wedge Antilles]], Pandion expressed disagreement with Sloane's suggestion that they keep him as a hostage for negotiations with the "rebellion." In response, Sloane reminded him that they were hear to discuss the future of the Empire.<ref name="Aftermath" />
+
+
Pandion then opined that the Empire needed a strong [[Galactic Emperor|Emperor]] rather than a "spineless and spiritless" council. Sloane responded that they would discuss the matter at the Imperial Future Council and questioned Pandion about his new title of Grand Moff. Pandion did not deny proclaiming himself Grand Moff but justified his action on the premise that he was within his right to seek power. Pandion then countered that Admiral Sloane had purportedly usurped control of the last remaining Imperial [[Executor-class Star Dreadnought|Super Star Destroyer]] ''[[Ravager (Super Star Destroyer)|Ravager]]''. When Pandion questioned her about the [[Gallius Rax|Fleet Admiral]], Sloane claimed that he had died.In truth, Rax was still alive and and had conspired with Sloane to engineer the conference as a means of eliminating his rivals.<ref name="Aftermath" />

Pandion felt that a big show of strength is what the Empire needed to regain its place in [[the galaxy]], often telling the other members of the council that they must bring their [[Imperial Navy|fleet]] to war, but was overruled by Admiral Rae Sloane on many occasions. The two grew wary of each other and often argued over who should make the important decisions. The summit's attendees were unable to come to a decision before captured [[New Republic]] [[pilot]] [[Wedge Antilles]] escaped their custody and sent a summons to war to the New Republic.

Pandion was a stiff, hatchet-chinned man with a scar running across his brow. As a self-proclaimed "Grand Moff", he wore a unique rectangular emblem consisting of six blue squares in the top row and three red and three yellow squares in the bottom.<ref name="Aftermath" />
