The Kilji Overlords were a part of the government of the Kilji Illumine, the nation of the Kilji species. They affirmed the decisions of the generalirius, the leader of the Illumine and its military, the Illumine Kilhorde.[1] In 18 BBY,[2] when the ruler of the Illumine, Generalirius Nakirre, agreed to accompany his ally, the Grysk agent "Jixtus" of the Grysk warlike species, to conquer other nations and spread the Kilji's beliefs, the Kilji Overlords affirmed his decision.[1]
While they orbited the Unknown Regions planet Zyzek aboard Nakirre's Kilji war cruiser Whetstone, the generalirius realized that Jixtus's anonymity achieved by fully concealing his body gave him a negotiating advantage over Nakirre, whose skin patterns reflecting his emotions gave his ally insight that went "deeper" than the Kilji's words. However, he remembered the Overlords had affirmed his decision to travel with Jixtus, and accepted his disadvantage.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Kilji Overlords were mentioned in the 2021 novel Thrawn Ascendancy: Lesser Evil, the final installment of Star Wars: The Ascendancy Trilogy written by Timothy Zahn.[1]
