Malorum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the Star Wars Expanded Universe, Malorum was the first Grand Inquisitor appointed to head the Inquisitorius, which was formed in the early days of the Galactic Empire to prosecute Order 66. Tall and imposing, Malorum wore a dark maroon robe, similar to that worn by Emperor Palpatine. Viewed as Lord Vader's "pet", Malorum was assigned to investigate the asteroid field of Polis Massa, searching for information about the late Padmé Amidala. Malorum was assisted in this by Boba Fett, who also worked with the Inquisitor during later investigations on Naboo. Malorum's time on Naboo was frustrating, as Queen Apailana and other Naboo politicians stonewalled and refused to give him the information he needed.
Eventually, Malorum was reassigned to Bellassa, where he worked as the chief of security, training ISB agents on the planet. Malorum became obsessed with hunting down the escaped fugitive and ex-Jedi Ferus Olin, enlisting the help of bounty hunters such as Boba Fett and D'harhan to help crush the Rebel uprising on Bellassa.
Malorum was then assigned to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. He set up his office in the former living quarters of Jedi Master Yoda. When stormtroopers captured Ferus, he interrogated him and asked him the name of the Jedi Ferus met on Bellassa. Ferus refused to talk, despite threats of execution.
Malorum went to Naboo to get answers on Padme's child. Her grandmother, Ryoo, knew nothing and he killed her. He fought Ferus in the Naboo energy core. In the end, he met the same fate as Darth Maul. He was succeeded by Laddinare Torbin.
