In my head, he looks like a slightly older version of King Kashue of Flaim from Record of Lodoss War.

We've played around with the idea (or a related one) a few times - there's even a draft scene of Vader meeting Rianna kicking around in the files somewhere, originally put together for an earlier concept of a sequel to Road Movie. It didn't get used, as that project didn't go ahead, and we haven't revisited the idea in a while - Larry is very particular about the uses to which his characters are put.

As for Kahm herself, I believe she's still around someplace, but Lord Vader is probably not yet aware of this. Chances are if they did run across each other, they'd either fight to the death or end up becoming the Oberon and Faella of a galaxy-striding dynasty the likes of which has never been seen before. Neither is probably advisable in the long term, so perhaps it's best if we keep them apart. :)
