The Dread Executioners were an organization comprised of both Sith Lords and members of the Imperial Military. In 3637 BBY, Darth Rictus sent them to the moon known as Oricon. Their mission during the Galactic War – a conflict between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire – was the termination of the Dread Masters. The Sith commander leading this group was Lord Hargrev, and his adjutant from the Imperial military was Maiya Vix. Their camp was located to the west of the Dread Fortress.
