Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - General Enric Pryde - Funko Mystery Minis - (Wootbox June 2021)

Enric Pryde was a human male officer who held the military rank of Allegiant General in the First Order during the First Order/Resistance War. In the last days of the conflict, Pryde was appointed as the commanding officer of the Final Order—a fleet of Xyston-class Star Destroyers—by the reborn Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious. Occupying a position of power and privilege, Pryde was a high-ranking First Order officer who wielded authority over the ground and naval forces of the First Order military. Pryde's flagship, the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast, was named in honor of the vessel he commanded during his time in the Imperial Navy.

A native of the planet Alsakan, Pryde was raised under the reign of the Galactic Empire. As such, his ideology was shaped by the principles of the New Order. A veteran of the Imperial Military, he retreated into the Unknown Regions of the galaxy after the Empire fell to the forces of the New Republic. Like other Imperial officers, Pryde joined the Empire's successor state, the First Order, longing to return to the High Human culture and civilization of his youth. During the New Republic Era, he served as part of a second wave of leadership that Supreme Leader Snoke kept in reserve after the unveiling of Starkiller Base. After Snoke's death, Supreme Leader Kylo Ren supported Pryde's career at the expense of his rival, General Armitage Hux.

While the mysticism of Snoke and Ren were foreign to him, as were the dark side rituals of Sith cultists, Pryde was interested in the material benefits they offered to the military. As a member of the Supreme Council, he supported Ren's alliance with the Sith Eternal cult and personally executed Hux for committing the treason of espionage against the First Order. When Ren's mission to Kef Bir ended with his redemption, Pryde assumed command in the absence of a Supreme Leader. Having served the Emperor in the Galactic Civil War, Pryde swore his allegiance to the Emperor and was given command of the Final Order, comprising thousands of Sith Star Destroyers, fitted with axial superlaser cannons that were capable of obliterating entire planets. Pryde, however, perished when his command ship was destroyed by Resistance forces during the Battle of Exegol. Without the Steadfast, the Sith warships were unable to leave Exegol, resulting in the Sith fleet's destruction by the Resistance navy and their allies.
