Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

[Heidao]

The results that'll happen after the Battle of Endor will be interesting

Cause we know that if he continues to improve his area and gets his debts squared away before the Imperial Remnants emerge. Unless he rises high enough, he would have no choice BUT to become an Imperial Warlord.

The New Republic is just all of the corrupt idiots from the Republic coming back to their flying saucer seats and a dream of returning back the status quo that caused the CIS's formation.

That means all of the seats are gonna be replaced by their people, governors and moffs alike. And everyone that was Imperial are either going in a cell or lined up on a wall.

Our Boi, had made his area a major target and strategic point of interest. After the fall, the New Republic is going to invade Kuat and sieze the KDY Ring. But he took and moved Rothana Heavy Industry's facilities and thus prevented the loss of ship and potential SD production for all of the surrounding Empire territories.

His people and bureaucracy are multi-species, everyone Enjoys Imperial rule there, as Las has ironically given them a true taste of Palpatine's promise of a "Safe and Secure Society" under his rule. And if the thought of someone else coming to take that good life away, by either killing or replacing him, they'll rebel hard. And LECAs are widespread

This probably won't happen, but I can't help but say this potential plot thread out loud. Palpatine has a history of punishing Vader for particularly egregious missteps by forcing him to serve under someone beneath him for a while, it's happened at least twice in canon. So I'm wondering if the possibility comes up that Palpy decides to put him under Las' command for a while. Las obviously panics at this inside, because he knows that EVERY time this has happened before, Vader immediately executed the person who had authority over him when Palpatine says he doesn't need to take their orders anymore.

But no small part of him executing them comes down to them bossing him around and wasting his time, so Las decides it would be best to put Vader on work that he would consider worthwhile and productive. He would this put together a list of various targets his intelligence networks have identified, such as pirates, criminal rings, violent rebels and dissidents and slavers.

The last one in particular would probably pique his interest because, several times in Legends and Disney canon, Vader has privately shown that, deep down, part of him still remembers the boy who used to dream of retiring to Tattooine as a Jedi to free the slaves.

As a result of giving Vader a lot of autonomy and a LONG leash (mostly to keep him far away when the Emperor relieves him so he isn't within lightsaber or choking distance) along with a direct cadre of COMPETENT soldiers for fire support and a personal vessel (with the ONE request that he refrain from killing any personnel unless they do a particularly egregious screw-up) and NOT treating him like a servant, Las becomes the only person besides Palpatine to survive having Vader under his command.

I cant see the senate being replaced , after all the parties/ committees in the background decide policy not the figureheads so nothing will change apart from how obvious you go about it.

Also las debts give him leverage in the NR senate because once demilitarization starts the shipyards go from 3000% above water to like 15-40, they are goanna want las steady on time payments with interest. he will suddenly become important. (at least until the payment is completed)

and if I remember correctly is las supplying corelila with supplies ,since it had trouble getting elsewhere? once the NR rises alot of business will vanish for shipyards so las may be a lifeline even if temporary.

Last point is if Las stays defensive the NR will want to leave him alone.
the NR has no will to fight ,the rebellion may of but the NR does not.


too many possibilities though depending how much of legends or cannon is chosen by author.

That or, if he asks what Vader feels he's good at, so as to put the scary Sith on an assignment he enjoys, throw him at engineering problems. Vader would love some of the crazy shit Midna's engineering teams get up to and, when free, may send a few projects their way.
