A warlord was a member of the Shadow Council. The warlord showed a visible sign of agreement to Moff Gideon's proposal of the Council electing one of their own as their new leader instead of awaiting the return of the missing Chiss Grand Admiral of the Imperial Navy Mitth'raw'nuruodo, or 'Thrawn', chuckling darkly in answer while another warlord verbal applauded Gideon's statement. The warlord also demonstrated concern when Gideon's explained that the security concern to his remnant that he had reported was the warrior-people of Mandalore, which the warlord exclaimed in answer to.
The warlord first appeared in "Chapter 23: The Spies," the seventh episode of season three of the Disney+ series The Mandalorian which was released on April 12, 2023. They were portrayed by Marco Khan.
