Larep Reza, a Kalleran male, held the position of Vice Chancellor while Lina Soh was the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. Considered a prominent figure within the Galactic Senate, Reza was widely believed to be Soh's most probable successor, and was often featured in gossipvids. Following the Nihil marauder attack that left Soh injured during the Republic Fair on the planet Valo, Reza took on the role of acting chancellor for a limited time.
