Possible origin of Grand Moff Kadann's name?

" . . . The battle against the evil Empire rages on as heroic men, women, and aliens of the Rebel Alliance continue their struggle to end the era of darkness. But by rescuing an Imperial prisoner, have the Rebels brought disaster upon themselves? While on a perilous quest in the mushroom forests of Arzid, Luke and Ken are captured by Kadann, Supreme Imperial Prophet. Having tempted the young Jedi Prince into revealing the location of the Lost City of the Jedi, the Supreme Prophet plans to steal the ancient knowledge of the Jedi Knights. Now Kadann will rule over a new tyrannical empire, as foretold by the... Prophets Of The Dark Side."

If you were to look in the Star Wars encyclopedia under Kadann, you'll see a picture of the little bugger.

Uhm, Three... I've got the Encyclopedia open to Kadann...

Kadann The Supreme Prophet of the Dark Side, the human dwarf with a black beard assumed leadership of the Empire for a brief time after the Battle of Endor. Others wishing to take over from the Emperor sought Kadann's dark blessing to make their rule legitimate. He often issued mysterious prophecies in the form of four-line verses, which Alliance leaders studied for any hints of what the Empire might be planning.

But there is no picture. There's a picture of Kabe, and that's the only picture on that page. The on the other page there is Junkfort Station, K-3PO, and Tenel Ka. But no Kadann. Do you have a different Enyclopedia??

In the Third Edition of A Guide to the Star Wars Universe by Bill Slavicsek, there is a picture of a dwarfish fellow next to the Kadann entry. Maybe you have the 2nd Edition Timber.

Also, from the oft-quoted Unofficial Encyclopedia:

"Kadann - a black-bearded dwarf, Kadann is the Supreme Prophet of the Dark Side. He is responsible for the prophecy that whoever wears the Glove of Darth Vader will be the next Emperor of the galaxy, which is contained in a series of four-line, non-rhyming verses. The leaders of the remnants of the Empire strive to obtain his blessing to make their rulership of the galaxy legitimate. Kadann drinks a strange tea brewed from the fungus-infested bark of an Endorian tree, which is rumored to allow him to see into the future. He is also a collector of the galaxy's finest artifacts, which he displays throughout Scardia's halls."

Fury, I have The Star Wars Encyclopedia. By Stephen J Sansweet. And Three said the encyclopedia, and unless there are two, or three different edition's of this, then I don't know. That is where I got my quote, I don't have A Guide to the Star Wars Universe, so I don't know. I was just commenting that in the Star Wars Encyclopedia there isn't a picture.

Ah, well there we go. I don't have the Encyclopedia either so that must be the case. Thanks for the clarification Timber. Must go book hunting again.

I never knew Kadann was a dwarf (no offence intended), but I knew he was a Dark Prophet.
So long guys =)
