Crispin Hoedaack served as a government official and the commander leading the New Galactic Empire's invasion of the Aquilaean system. His official title was Governor and First Lord governing the Aquilaean System and its surrounding territories.
Crispin Hoedaack initially held the position of a governor within the structure of the New Galactic Empire. As the Aquilae Campaign was about to begin, the then-reigning Emperor Cos Dashit elevated Hoedaack to First Lord of the Aquilaean System and Surrounding Territories, a decision previously agreed upon privately between Dashit and Hoedaack. Prior to the official announcement, Hoedaack informed Dashit that the people had been waiting at the Plaza of the Daders since the early morning. Unbeknownst to Dashit, Hoedaack, in conjunction with Darth Vader and Vantos Coll, was secretly conspiring to seize Dashit's power. Ultimately, Hoedaack met his end when his space fortress was obliterated by Wookiee pilots and Luke Skywalker while orbiting Aquilae.
He was a youthful individual characterized by sharp facial features, gray eyes, blond hair, and light skin. Due to his participation within the group of individuals that replaced the Great Families, which previously comprised the Supreme Tribunal, he possessed immense ambition. Hoedaack aimed to secure the directorship with the aid of his allies, Darth Vader and Vantos Coll.
At the time of his promotion, he was seen wearing a military uniform that was black and red with golden shoulder pads.
The initial draft of Hoedaack's last name was slightly altered and given to Montross Holdaack. He is considered to be the predecessor to Wilhuff Tarkin. In the original draft, the name Tarkin was given to a religious figure on Aquilae.
