Salle Serpa was a major in the Galactic Alliance Guard. He was especially noted for his willingness to utilize excessive force when the situation called for extraordinary measures. His taste for brutality and apparent psychological instability caused Jaina Solo to believe that Serpa had been chosen to lead the GAG troopers to the Jedi Academy on Ossus by Darth Caedus, primarily because of the Major's lack of a moral sense of right and wrong.
