The executor was a leader of the protoss refugees from Aiur who commanded protoss warriors directly in battle.

Executor from Dark Vengeance

The Executor was a protoss commander during Enslavers: Dark Vengeance, working underneath Zeratul and directly ordering warriors in battle against the forces of Ulrezaj. There is a very strong possibility that this is the same Executor as the one from Episode IV, since Enslavers II takes place directly after the end of Episode IV.

Notes

The StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty "The Story so Far" lore article identifies Artanis as the executor from Epsiode III and doesn't mention this executor in its section about Episode IV.[1] It is possible that this character was retconned, as Artanis appeared to refer to another executor in StarCraft: Brood War.[2] Alternatively, this executor could be Selendis, as she currently holds the title of executor and was a student of Artanis.[3] However, in Wings of Liberty, Selendis appeared to not know Jim Raynor personally, despite Raynor's presence in Episode IV.[4] This Executor and the Executor from the Enslavers series could be one and the same.
