Rae Sloane was a female human served as the first leader of the First Order during the New Republic Era, and de facto leader of the Galactic Empire after the Battle of Endor during the Galactic Civil War and was instrumental in its survival in the aftermath.

Sloane was formally a Captain who commanded the Star Destroyer Ultimatum during the Civil War temporarily filling in for Yale Karlsen, who was on assignment to a construction committee, she was proud to have achieved captaincy of a capital ship by the age of thirty.

She was still serving years later after the Battle of Endor near the planet of Akiva, an Admiral serving on the Vigilance. Eventually she became part of Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax's Shadow Council as a Grand Admiral.

During this time, she was officially the leader of the Galactic Empire but Gallius Rax gave her orders as her "aide". She went with Commandant Brendol Hux to the unknown regions where the first seeds of the First Order were planted.

Biography[]

The First Order[]

Into the Unknown Regions[]

Departing on the Imperialis for the Unknown Regions with the former Commandant Brendol Hux, his son Armitage, and a group of orphans. The journey through the Unknown Regions took several months and involved taking several hyperspace jumps through a maze of black holes and superstorms. At the beginning of the voyage Sloane feared that Brendol Hux would have the orphans attack her in her sleep. Seeing as how the orphans listened to Armitage Hux, she struck an accord with him. Sloane promised to protect the younger Hux from his father if Hux told the orphans to leave her alone. Sloane confronted the elder Hux and told him about the death of Rax. When Hux tried to attack her, she beat him into submission and forced him to agree to obey her orders and to stop harming his son. Sloane also ordered Brendol to teach Armitage everything he knew about the Empire.[1]

Sloane also found that the blaster wound in her abdomen had not fully healed. During her solitude, Sloane resolved that she would build a new Empire that was not given to the backstabbing and incest of Palpatine's former Empire which Rax had destroyed. After months of flying through the Unknown Regions, the Imperialis rendezvoused with the Executor-class Star Dreadnought Eclipse. When Hux addressed her as Grand Admiral, Sloane remarked that the process of building a new Empire was to begin, and that it would be done right this time, with this act, the First Order was born.[1]

Grand Admiral of the First Order[]

Eventually Sloane, still a Grand Admiral, became a part of the first set of leaders of the First Order. Captain Cardinal recalled that at least ten years before the attack on Tuanul, Brendol Hux had been preparing for a big meeting with Sloane and the other leaders of the First Order.[2] Though Sloane was seen as a potential candidate to lead the remnants of Palpatine's Empire, Snoke ultimately rose to become the First Order's Supreme Leader.[3]
