Star Wars: Thrawn | Comic Dub
keefer for Nevil Cygni/Nightswan
Nightswan is the main antagonist of this series – a rebel who uses piracy to raise funds for people who were wronged by the Empire to seek revenge. He is a perfect foil for Thrawn, being a cunning and intellectual man, nearly outsmarting Thrawn on several occasions. Thrawn first meets him on the Dromedar, where Nightswan pretends to be a nervous Imperial Officer who had been overpowered by invading pirates. He should begin with a rather nervous voice, but switch to a more confident, commanding voice when he reveals himself.
[Pretending to be nervous] “Yes. I was scared. Didn’t focus on the uniforms. When I saw who you were… I guess I’m lucky you didn’t shoot me for pulling a blaster.”
"It’s good to see you again, Commander Vanto. And please – call me Nightswan. I’m glad that Admiral Thrawn sent you to seek me out. I always thought you’d been dealt a bad set of cards."
"I started hearing rumors. Something nasty the Empire was up to out in the middle of nowhere. The project that was sucking up all the doonium, iridium, and other metals being yanked out of the markets. I heard about whole planets being strip-mined. Private operations being taken over by the Empire. I started getting curious. Sometimes it’s a very bad thing to be curious.”
