| - Marino Sevir was a Human male who served as an officer in the Imperial Navy of the Sith Empire during the Great Galactic War. While Sevir was a good commander, he was primarily a scientist and an engineer. Over time, he rose to the rank of admiral in the armada, due to his achievements in developing fixes to technical problems on warships, as well as his command skills. During the war against the Galactic Republic, Sevir even drafted designs for a potential replacement to the famous Harrower-class dreadnought. That was the reason that the Sith Emperor himself selected Sevir to be one of eleven officers that were promoted to the new rank of Grand Admiral, during a ceremony on Dromund Kaas in 3,659 BBY. Being one of the Navy's few officers who took part in designing new ships, the promotion was expected. As a Grand Admiral, Sevir continued designing new weaponry while patrolling Imperial space. He saw little action for the duration of the Great Galactic War. During the Cold War, Grand Admiral Sevir's efforts were noticed by the Dark Council. To change the tide of the conflict in their favor, they had him to put one of his designs into reality. The large Devastator-class dreadnaught was constructed, the Devastator. The new warship was commanded by Captain Malkova, who was an efficient and professional officer, and the ground forces aboard were under command of the old General Fendon Teska. Sevir enjoyed their company as he worked on the project. The most notable feature of the Devastator was the large superlaser built on the bow of the ship. Sevir used it to destroy a Republic world called Beldaron, which was sparsely populated, and had a Republic garrison. The Republic, learning of this, knew it could not allow such a weapon to be further developed by the Empire. Jedi Knight Saato Antayen was sent to disrupt their research. She landed in a hangar of the ship in a captured Imperial interceptor, and was disguised as a Sith Lord sent to inspect the Grand Admiral's project. Sevir fell for it, and gave her a tour of the ship. She then commanded him to leave her, and after the confused Grand Admiral left, Antayen began to sabotage the main reactor. She also slew the engineers managing it, and then ran away. The reactor could only function for a bit longer before it would completely break apart and destroy the Devastator. After seeing what she did, Sevir realized his mistake and ordered all troops to hunt her down. At the same time, he had no intention of abandoning his doomed warship, knowing that he would probably be executed for his failure anyways. She fought her way through several platoons of Imperial soldiers and destroyed various automated defenses. Antayen eventually reached the hangar, where she got into her interceptor and left the ship. Sevir ordered all available pilots to pursue her as the Devastator began exploding. A malfunctioning computer council exploded on the bridge, killing a number of crew, including Captain Malkova. Shortly afterwards, the rest of the ship exploded, taking the Grand Admiral with it. Antayen was pursued by dozens of fighters, and after shooting down several of them, she escaped into hyperspace. After Sevir's death, the project was dropped by the Empire, due to lack of funds and also because the Dark Council was worried of a such a thing occuring again.
