Danik Kreldin (40 BBY—reported 15 ABY) was the Supreme Commander of the Galactic Empire. He was a veteran of nearly forty years, having served in the both the Old Republic Navy and its successor organization, the Imperial Navy. His long and accomplished career ended in 15 ABY, after attempting to remove Emperor Aleister Vadim from the throne. He was reported executed by COMPNOR after his subsequent capture. He left behind a legacy of devastation, responsible for the genocidal butchering of the Griffon people, the Chandrilan Massacre, the Dacan Pandemic, and the "Imperial revival of 14 ABY", which included the recapture of Coruscant in early 15 ABY.
