  • Captain Zeta Traal was a Human female Imperial officer working for the Imperial Diplomatic Corps on the planet Velmor during the Galactic Civil War. As a diplomatic attaché to the royal regent, Zelor, her function was to make certain that Zelor's ruling conformed to Imperial standards. Three years after the Battle of Yavin, the existing royal heir, Prince Anod prepared to accept his coronation and take control of Velmor from Zelor as the planet's new king. Although Anod was loyal to the Empire, neither Traal nor Zelor had any intention of allowing the prince to remain in power for very long. The situation became more complicated when Anod's older brother, Prince Denid arrived on Velmor after a twenty-year exile. A bounty hunter named Korl Marcus had discovered Denid on the planet Tantajoc V and brought him home to Velmor so that he could rightly assume the position of heir-apparent to the throne. Korl Marcus was in fact, Luke Skywalker in disguise, working for the Rebel Alliance to put a Rebel-sympathizer on the throne. Captain Traal suspected that Korl Marcus was the sort of hunter whose allegiance was owed to whoever had the most money. She attempted to seduce Korl one evening and offered him a reward if he would agree to assassinate Prince Denid. Luke had no intention of doing as Traal asked, but agreed to the plan to keep his identity a secret. Skywalker was able to warn Denid of Traal's schemes during a Mrid Hunt, and the conspiracy between Traal, Zelor and Anod fell apart. As everything erupted into chaos, Traal shot Prince Anod in the chest, killing him instantly. She then trained her blaster on Skywalker, but a Velmoc named Jedidiah leapt on top of her, spoiling her aim. Traal wheeled around and fired a shot at point-blank range directly into Jedidiah's chest, killing him. By this point, Denid, Luke and the others had gained the upper hand and Traal was arrested.
