It's Friday, time for another update on the official site. Today on top of the usual fan updates, we got new biographies added to the holonet. They cover several people who, it's fair to assume, will have some important roles to play in-game:

• Bouris Ulgo is the self-proclaimed king of Alderaan. From his bio, it seems he made a lot of political enemies, and will probably be at the center of much turmoil. He has a vast military background and declared martial law on the planet. He is also mad, which is always a plus in my book.
• Diab Duin is the Republic envoy to Aeten II, a small mining outpost which became very important for the war effort. The man is said to be of few words and with an independent personality. There are few hints as to how he will be involved in the actual story lines, but it's clear that if the Empire wants to sabotage or capture the mine, they would have to go through him.
• The last entry is known only as Keeper, the ultimate Imperial spymaster. Since he oversees all infiltration operations, it's fair to say he will be of central importance to those playing Imperial Agents. Because of his illusive nature, those who deal with him may want to remain on their guard.
