"Violence only ever begets more violence."
―A mantra from Syn's religion, the Sacred Way

“暴力只会换来暴力。”
——西恩所信的宗教“神圣之道”的祷词

Peccati Syn was one of the twelve original Grand Admirals of the Imperial Navy. Raised as a devout Sacred Way follower, a young Syn was forced to abandon his religion under Imperial oppression. He joined the Empire to fill a spiritual void, rising through the ranks thanks to his tactical expertise and energetic devotion. After becoming a Grand Admiral in 2 BBY, he fought with distinction in the Galactic Civil War aboard his flagship, Fi.

佩卡蒂·西恩曾是帝国海军的初代十二元帅之一。年轻的西恩出生后便成为了供奉神圣之道的信徒，但帝国的高压政策迫使他放弃了自己的宗教。他加入帝国以填补精神上的空虚，并以自己的战术技能和尽忠职守而在军中步步高升。当雅汶之战爆发两年前被晋升为帝国元帅后，他转而搭乘他的旗舰“后裔”号在银河内战中作战。

When the Empire began to fragment after the Battle of Endor, Syn again searched for a new source of spiritual inspiration, and found one in the Church of the Dark Side on Coruscant. While officially remaining part of Sate Pestage's faltering Imperial regime, Syn's true loyalty was with the Church and its Prophets, and most of his time was spent on Kashyyyk, the residence of his spiritual guide, Merili. When the New Republic launched a major offensive against Imperial-controlled Kashyyyk eight months after Endor, Syn was embroiled in a tactical confrontation with Admiral Ackbar. Ultimately, the Grand Admiral lost the duel; he died when his ship was vaporized in orbit.

当帝国在恩多之战后渐行崩塌之时，西恩再次开始寻求新的精神寄托，并在科洛桑的黑暗教会中找到了信仰源泉。在西恩对外依然宣称从属于萨塔·佩斯塔格渐行渐弱的帝国政权时，他实质上向黑暗教会及其预言者效忠。这一期间他在卡须克星球同他在当地的灵魂指引梅里利花费了绝大部分时间。当新共和在恩多之战结束八个月后对帝国治下的卡须克发动大规模进攻时，西恩卷入了同阿克巴上将的战术交锋。最后，这位帝国元帅战败，在自己旗舰在轨道汽化的同时死去。

Biography

生平

Ascension

崛起

The male Human Peccati Syn was born into a deeply religious family, who devoutly followed the pacifist, karmic religion known as the Sacred Way, and its Holy-Book. His parents instilled in him the belief that, should he adhere to his religion's tenets, he would reach a glorious, idyllic afterlife, and Syn lived a happy, devoted childhood. However, soon the Galactic Empire began to enforce its prohibition of religion on his homeworld. Some, such as the Verpine "Pera" on Aduba-3, ignored the mandate and continued to practice, but Syn complied.

佩卡蒂·西恩，男性人类，出生在一个笃信宗教的家庭。他的家庭献身于宗教“神圣之道”及其《圣本》。这一宗教主张和平处世，相信因果报应。他的父母从小便向他灌输宗教思想，反复提醒他如果坚持信奉本教，来世能够得到平和以及光明的生活。因此西恩的童年充满了欢乐和对宗教的献身。但是，银河帝国很快便将其禁教令强加到他的家乡世界之上。一部分人——比如阿杜巴3号的韦尔派因族神父——忽视这一命令并继续供奉自己的宗教，但西恩遵从了这一命令。

After such a faith-oriented youth, Syn was left spiritually barren, and, bereft of other options, turned to the doctrine of the New Order to fill this religious vacuum. He ardently internalized the Emperor's dogma and enlisted in the Imperial Navy, carving out a name for himself. In 2 BBY, Syn was one of twelve men elevated by Emperor Palpatine to the newly created and highly prestigious position of Grand Admiral. While some Grand Admirals were politically motivated appointments, Syn was selected on merit: his ascension coincided with the beginning of the Galactic Civil War, and he fought the Rebel Alliance with devotion to duty and tactical acumen. He named his flagship Fi, after the High Galactic word for "son" used by Sacred Way clergymen.

在经过了一个充满宗教氛围的童年之后，西恩陷入了信仰缺失的状态，并在别无他途的情况下转向“新秩序”的教条以填补信仰上的空白。他热烈地融入皇帝的教条并加入了帝国海军，通过自己的努力在历史上留下了一笔。在雅汶之战两年以前，西恩成为了十二位获得帕尔帕丁皇帝钦点的帝国元帅之一，这一新近创立的军衔拥有极高的威望和权力。尽管某些元帅的任命出于政治原因，但西恩却是因其能力所致：他的崛起与银河内战的爆发始于同一时期，而他在与叛军同盟的对抗中表现出了尽职的精神和战术上的敏锐。根据神圣之道牧师在表示“儿子”时使用的高地银河语，他将自己的旗舰命名为“后裔”号。

Imperial fragmentation

帝国崩溃

Syn's exalted Empire began to deteriorate after the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, in which Emperor Palpatine and his enforcer Darth Vader perished, along with the second Death Star and the Super Star Destroyer Executor. Many Imperials, including some of Syn's Grand Admiral colleagues, turned warlord, seizing personal dominions, while others complied with the orders coming out of Coruscant. Former Grand Vizier Sate Pestage was technically Interim-Emperor, though he vied for control with the Imperial Ruling Council and Director of Imperial Intelligence Ysanne Isard, among others. One of Pestage's acts was to sanction the establishment of the Church of the Dark Side on Coruscant; overseen by the Prophets of the Dark Side, it preached the renewal and regeneration of the Empire.

西恩眼中无比崇高的帝国在雅汶之战四年后爆发的恩多之战后开始衰亡。帕尔帕丁皇帝和他的执行人达斯·维德均死于此战，同样遭受毁灭命运的还有第二死星以及超级歼星舰“执行者”号。包括西恩的元帅同僚在内的众多帝国军官开始拥兵自重，并为自己夺取领土。但在此同时，另一些人则决定继续服从来自科洛桑的命令。尽管前高级大臣萨塔·佩斯塔格正陷于同帝国统治议会、帝国情报局局长依珊·伊萨德及其他人争夺统治权之中，但他当时实际上已经成为了事实上的代理皇帝。佩斯塔格的敕令之一就是批准黑暗教会在科洛桑的建立。在黑暗面预言者的监督下，这一宗教团体开始散布帝国重生以及复兴帝国的教义。

Like the hordes of spiritually-starved citizens on the Imperial capital, Syn took to the church fervently; no sooner than his Imperial religion had become untenable, a ready-made replacement had cropped up. In truth, the Church was a false headed by Imperial Intelligence impersonators, founded by Pestage and Lord Cronal in a desperate attempt to strengthen the former Vizier's weakening clutch on the Empire. Nevertheless, Syn was rejuvenated, and while he publicly supported Pestage's regime, his true loyalty lay with the Prophets. The Grand Admiral even attempted in vain to hearten his dispirited colleague Ishin-Il-Raz, lending him a copy of the sacred book Secrets of the Dark Side.

如同在帝都境内其他信仰处于真空的民众一样，西恩热诚地投身于这一团体之中。在西恩的帝国信仰岌岌可危时，一个现成的替代品已经摆在了他的面前。实际上，这一由帝国情报部的假扮者所领导的教会，是前大臣佩斯塔格和克罗奈尔尊主为强化佩斯塔格对帝国日渐衰弱的控制而建立的。尽管事实如此，西恩却再度恢复了自己的活力，在对外宣称支持佩斯塔格政权的同时，他实际上效忠于预言会。这位帝国元帅甚至借给伊欣—伊尔—拉兹圣卷《黑暗之秘》的副本，徒然地试图振作他沮丧的同僚。

Demise

死亡

Syn operated out of Imperial-controlled Kashyyyk, the base of Prophetess Merili. Merili was one of the few genuine Prophets working within the Church of the Dark Side, and she became Syn's spiritual advisor. Entrenched in the church's doctrine, Syn vowed not to turn his back on another religion, and served the church's ends along with Fi and its crew. Eight months after the Battle of Endor, the New Republic embarked on an ambitious offensive into Imperial territory, led by the Mon Calamari Admiral Ackbar. Kashyyyk was targeted; Ackbar brought his New Republic Defense Force fleet to bear against Syn's in orbit over the planet.

西恩在帝国控制下的卡须克负责运作女预言家梅里利的基地。梅里利是从属于黑暗教会中少数货真价实的预言者之一，她成为了西恩的精神导师。西恩深信圣殿的教义，宣誓将不再转向任何其他的宗教，并为圣殿服务直至同“后裔”号及其船员一同覆灭。恩多之战结束八个月后，新共和在蒙·卡拉梅里人上将阿克巴的指挥下开始着手向帝国领土发动大规模的攻击。卡须克被确定为目标之一。阿克巴指挥新共和防御舰队开往卡须克并对抗西恩在该星球上空轨道的部队。

The battle ultimately saw Syn locked in a one-on-one tactical confrontation with Ackbar; the Grand Admiral, fighting with his newfound spiritual resoluteness, did his best, with no concern for his personal well-being or that of his crew. Ultimately, the New Republic outfought their Imperial counterparts, and Ackbar won the tactical duel. Fi was vaporized, taking with it Syn, his crew, and Merili. The Church did not outlast the late Grand Admiral for long, and soon after wresting control of the Imperial remnants from Pestage, Ysanne Isard reinstated freedom of religion, legalizing the Sacred Way.

这场战斗最终见证了西恩与阿克巴的一对一战术交手。这位帝国元帅带着对其崭新信仰的坚定决心，不顾个人及其船员的安危尽全力作战。最后，新共和击败了帝国军队，而阿克巴赢得了战术决战的胜利。“后裔”号带着西恩、梅里利以及其他乘员一同以汽化告终。黑暗教会的命运并不比这位帝国元帅长久多少。在强行从佩斯塔格手中夺取了帝国残余势力的控制权后不久，依珊·伊萨德解除了宗教信仰的封锁，将“神圣之道”恢复为合法。

Personality and traits

性格特征

Peccati Syn's life was marked by his single-minded devotion to whatever cause he joined. As a youth, he never strayed from the Sacred Way, and experienced his happiest and fondest times in life. When the time came to replace that religion with the New Order, however, he did so with similar devotion, serving with distinction, despite the fact that the Empire's ethos clashed strongly with that of the Sacred Way, which preached pacifism and divine retribution for sins. Syn, however, did not forget his roots, naming his flagship after a word used by the Sacred Way's clergymen when addressing laypeople. After the collapse of the Empire as known and cherished by Syn, he again found solace in another religion, this time the Church of the Dark Side. The church was a fake, though, and Syn himself was duped.

佩卡蒂·西恩一生的特别之处在于他对所加入的任何事业都无条件尽忠尽责。少年时代的西恩从未偏离过神圣之道，并因此度过了他人生中最幸福美好的一段时期。但是，当新秩序取代了西恩的信仰之后，他居然无视帝国精神与宣扬和平、赎罪的神圣之道间严重的冲突，以同样的热诚献身于新秩序，并做出了卓越的贡献。但西恩并没有忘记自己最初的信仰，他根据神圣之道的神职人员称呼普通信徒的词语命名自己的旗舰。在西恩获悉他所珍视的帝国崩溃之后，他又一次从别的宗教中获得了慰藉，而这一次的宗教是黑暗教会。但是，这个教会实际上是个骗局，而西恩自己受到了欺骗。

Unlike many of his peers, Syn did not join the Imperial Navy out of self-importance or barbarity, but rather out of a perceived necessity, in the absence of virtually any other religious organizations. He achieved his lofty rank not as a result of an aristocratic background or political maneuvering, but because of his tireless, dutiful work and skill. After Endor, even having lost faith in the Empire, Syn made no attempts to claim a personal fiefdom, and for the rest of his life remained ostensibly loyal to Coruscant.

不同于他的同僚，西恩加入帝国海军的原因并非因为自视甚高或生性残暴，而仅仅是出于在缺乏其他宗教团体的情况下对参军必要性的一种认知。他并不是因贵族背景或是政治原因而获得权位，他依靠的是工作中表现出的坚韧、尽职和能力。在恩多一战结束后，即便在对帝国失去信心的情况下，西恩仍然没有试图为自己攻城掠地，而是在其余下的人生中对科洛桑保持了显而易见的忠诚。

Peccati Syn was far less morally bankrupt than many of his colleagues, who committed atrocities with the aim of gaining power or prestige, or to fulfill personal ambitions. Until his final engagement at Kashyyyk, he went into battle with concern for the well being of his subordinates, while he even attempted to coax Ishin-Il-Raz, an extremely unpopular fellow Grand Admiral, out of his depression; meanwhile, many of his Imperial peers were clashing over disputed territories and scheming in shadows.

佩卡蒂·西恩远不及他的同僚那样缺乏道德，他从不为为取得权力、威信或是满足个人野心而横施暴行。在卡须克进行最后一战期间，他甚至还在关心自己下属的安危，甚至还试图为伊欣—伊尔—拉兹——一个完全不受欢迎的元帅同僚解开心结。与此同时，他的众多帝国同僚则正在为划定势力范围而相互斗争，或是在暗地里策划阴谋。

Behind the scenes

幕后故事

"His first name "Peccatti" is Italian for "sins," so I suppose this Imperial is doubly sinful. No wonder Admiral Ackbar blows his arse away."
―Abel G. Pe?a

“他的名字‘佩卡蒂’在意大利语中表示‘罪恶’的意思，因此我假设这位帝国军官是双重罪恶的。因此也难怪阿克巴上将要把对方炸上天去。”
——阿贝尔·G·佩纳

Grand Admiral Syn was created by Kevin J. Anderson and Daniel Wallace for The Essential Chronology (2000), where his defeat to Ackbar is briefly mentioned. He was briefly mentioned again in Wallace's The New Essential Guide to Characters (2002), before Wallace expanded upon the character's history with co-author Abel G. Pe?a in Who's Who: Imperial Grand Admirals, published in Star Wars Insider 66 (2003), wherein his first name is established. Who's Who was originally due to appear in Star Wars Gamer magazine, but after Gamer's cancellation, it was moved to Star Wars Insider, sans gaming statistics. The move also necessitated the article to be condensed; as a result, some of the Grand Admirals' biographical information was cut, though Syn's remained mostly intact. The Grand Admiral has subsequently been referenced in Wallace's The New Essential Chronology (2005) and The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia (2008).

帝国元帅西恩是由凯文·J·安德森和丹尼尔·华莱士为2000年的《星战基本年表》所创作的，在该书中，他被阿克巴击败的事件仅得到了简要的描述。他再次在2002年华莱士的《人物新基本指南》中得到了简要的描述。而后，华莱士与他的合著人阿贝尔·G·佩纳在2003年发表于《星战知情人》第66期的《谁是谁：帝国元帅》一文中拓展了这一人物的背景故事，这一人物的名字同样在该文中得以敲定。《谁是谁》一文原定于出现在《星战游戏人》杂志，但在该杂志停刊之后，这篇文章在删去游戏统计数据后被移至《星战知情人》之中。这一变动使得文章必须得到简化，导致部分帝国元帅的生平情报被删去，但有关西恩的资料的主要部分保持了完整。随后，在华莱士在2005年所著的《新基本年表》和2008年的《星战完全百科》中，这位帝国元帅再度得到了说明。

The Italian word "peccati" means "sins" in English, while "syn" bears similarity to "sin". This is an intentional pun on the part of Who's Who: Imperial Grand Admirals coauthor Abel G. Pe?a, who is conversant in Italian.

“佩卡蒂”一词在意大利语中表示“罪恶”，同时“西恩”可能是源于英语的“罪恶”一词。这是由意大利语十分流利的《谁是谁：帝国元帅》合著者阿贝尔·G·佩纳在该文中故意为之的一个双关语。

删节

Syn's future pointed to him becoming a "Pera" upon reaching adulthood, but after the Empire intervened and Syn was told to discard his beliefs, this dream was forgotten. Instead, he became a Grand Admiral, but in the course of his campaign rooting out Rebels during the Galactic Civil War, his conscience was tested. His guilt at abandoning his beliefs prompted him to turn a blind eye to atrocities being committed within the Empire in the name of religion, like in the case of the Yevetha or Dim-U. When the Empire began to crumble, Syn was reminded of morbid stories about Chaos from his childhood, and was quick to turn to the newly founded Church of the Dark Side. As a devotee of the Prophets, Syn regained his childhood happiness; he symbolically renamed his flagship Silooth, after a type of Sithspawn, to represent his new faith. During the Second Battle of Kashyyyk, Syn saw himself defending the church, not the Empire—he died a happy man, fighting for a cause he could believe in.

本来西恩将在成年后成为一个神父，但由于帝国当局的干预，西恩被告知必须放弃自己的信仰，于是这一梦想被渐渐遗忘。而他最终成为了一名帝国元帅。银河内战肃清叛军的战役考验了他的良知。背弃信仰所产生的罪恶感使他有意忽视了比如帝国为确立疆域在叶维萨和狄姆—乌所进行的暴行。当帝国渐行崩塌之时，他想起了自他童年起一系列混乱中的病态往事，于是他迅速地转向新建立的黑暗教会。西恩从成为预言者的忠诚信徒之中重新获得了童年时的欢乐，他根据某一种西斯生物的名称将自己的旗舰象征性地更名为“西鲁斯”号，以表明自己的新信仰。在第二次卡须克之战中，西恩认为自己是为捍卫教会而非帝国作战——他为自己的信仰而战，毫无遗憾地死去。
