Imperial Garrisons
Aldhani Garrison
Jayhold Beehaz
Commandant Jayhold Beehaz
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Stanley Townsend
Appearances: Andor
The commandant of the Aldhani garrison.
- Abusive Parents: Threatens to slap his son Leonart for not wearing his blouse. In the same breath, he coldly dismisses his son due to claiming he's old enough to dress himself and demands his wife come help him get dressed, showing he often puts his own needs above his own child's.
- Aesop Amnesia: Even after being told he's grown too fat for his belt, he still looks forward to a banquet for food and drink.
- Alas, Poor Villain: Downplayed, but despite his outward nastiness, his genuine concern for his family's well-being during the hostage crisis gives him at least a bit of humanity, more than many other Imperials. His slow, painful death by heart attack from overexertion is one of the most disturbing deaths in the franchise to date for just how mundane it is, and it's unsettling to watch him fruitlessly gasping and reaching for help, only to collapse.
- Asshole Victim: Nobody besides his wife and child is likely to miss him given the atrocities he committed and what he had planned for the Aldhani people.
- Break the Haughty: Introduced as a smug, slimy bastard but when he realizes just what grave danger he and his family are in and how his title is irrelevant to saving them or himself, he begins to shut up and cooperate. He addresses his men and calmly but sternly orders them to cooperate for their own sake.
- Dirty Foreigner: He can’t talk about the Dhani without whining about how badly they and their goat hides smell, as part of his Fantastic Racism.
- Disappeared Dad: If his son survived the hostage crisis, he's going to find he's lost his father.
- Et Tu, Brute?: Does not take Lieutenant Gorn's betrayal well. He's so shocked by it that it may have even played a part in his fatal heart attack.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite his threats towards his son and clearly strained relationship with his wife, Beehaz is extremely fearful of the rebels killing them if the Imperials don't cooperate and implores his troopers to do as they say for their own lives and the lives of his family.
- Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: He tries to get one over on Vel by saying she'll just kill him and his family even if they cooperate, but Vel shuts him up by acknowledging that's what he would do.
- Fantastic Racism: He's gleefully racist towards the Dhani people, ridiculing their traditions, decrying them as simple minded idiots, and even boasting how the Dhani will get to come back to the dam even after the Empire bans it… as their newest batch of slave labor.
- Fat Bastard: He's formally introduced struggling to put on a belt due to his weight and when forced to assist Vel and her Rebel Cell into loading credits into a craft they're going to steal, he dies of overexertion.
- Hidden Depths: Despite being a vile, greedy Imperial, he shows an excellent understanding of the Empire's slow-handed strategic means of suffocating its' populace while pretending to offer them freedom. And despite treating his family like crap most of the time, when their lives and the lives of his subordinates are threatened, he eventually starts genuinely cooperating for their lives' sake.
- The Hedonist: Only shown to be interested in what will benefit him, namely getting a big promotion and indulging in banquets.
- Hollywood Heart Attack: A downplayed example as he's seen sweating and struggling to breathe, which appears to just be a reaction to being forced to work so hard. It's only when he clutches his chest and collapses that it becomes clear what's happening to him.
- Humiliation Conga: He ends up completely torn down from everything and anything he had going for him by the time he dies. He intended to suck up to his superiors to get a promotion during the Eye, but his cohorts are systematically wiped out. He's then slapped around when he tries to boast about how the rebels will never succeed, and then he's forced to watch his family be taken at gunpoint, finally succeeding in shutting him up. He's marched around as a Trojan horse through his own base and forced to order his men to comply for every Imperials' sake. He's then forced to participate in loading the credits onto the ship for the rebels despite being middle-aged and extremely out of shape, with no respite. Then he learns Lieutenant Gorn has been playing him for years like a sap and is one of the rebel leaders. Finally, he dies a pitiful death from a heart attack that surely could've been averted had he taken better care of himself than just wallow in the spoils of his greed and the Empire's conquests.
- Hypocritical Humor: In his introductory scene he berates his wife for helping their son Leonart get dressed, insisting he's old enough to dress himself... then orders her to come and help him, a middle-aged man, get dressed.
- Insult Backfire:
- He snarls at Vel that she'll just kill him and his family regardless of whether they cooperate, and Vel shuts him up by sarcastically asking if that's what he'd do.
- He warns Gorn that he will hang for betraying him and the Empire, who scornfully laughs that after serving under him for years, he deserves worse.
- Karmic Death: An overweight, elderly man who refuses to take accountability for the suffering of innocents let alone his weight problem is forced into rapid hard labor by the rebels and dies of heart failure due to overexertion. He's worked to death just like he planned to have happen to the Aldhani natives.
- Never My Fault: When he can't fit on his sash due to his expanded waistline, he blames it on the servants for apparently not packing it right and making it all compressed. He looks aghast when his wife points out that it's his own fault it doesn't fit.
- O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Kimzi does hesitate when Gorn orders him to leave, but his suspicions that something is very wrong are strongly exacerbated when he realizes that Beehaz, of all people, has been doing hard labor alongside his men given what a horrible, lazy boss he is.
- Pet the Dog: The most decent thing he does is brief the Imperial troops on the hostage situation and demand they cooperate for the lives of him, his family, and their own.
- Smug Snake: He's a pompous blowhard to everyone besides Petigar and Gorn, which makes it all the more delicious when he’s forced to comply with the rebels.
- This Cannot Be!: He's the epitome of Cassian's famous line about Imperials being so "fat and satisfied" that they'd never believe anyone could get one over on them. He's not only overweight, but he's in complete disbelief at Gorn's betrayal and the hostage situation, and it takes a while for him to finally cooperate.
- Villainous Friendship: He seems to genuinely respect Gorn, asking him for advice and being completely, utterly enraged when he learns that he was playing him for a sap for years.
- Villainous Glutton: While he's no Jabba, he's shown to be enthusiastic about a banquet after the Eye, despite having already outgrown some of his uniform.
- Villain Has a Point: He points out to the rebels that he is unable to get them all the way as they want, but thankfully the rebels get around the requirements for access to payroll.
Kimzi
Corporal Kimzi
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Nick Blood
Appearances: Andor
A comms officer stationed at Aldhani garrison.
- Character Death: He is killed in the shootout with the infiltration team.
- Fantastic Racism: Makes numerous derogatory remarks about the Aldhani people.
- Smart Ball: While not necessarily depicted as dumb per se, up until the night of the Aldhani heist he'd been shown as rather lax and lazy with regards to his job, including apparently using a Fantastic Drug while on duty. On the night of the heist, however, he's on his game; he notices and keeps trying to figure out and/or fix the communications issues suddenly plaguing the garrison, refusing to write it off as interference from the Eye, as some of the other soldiers do. His dedication in this eventually allows him to intercept the communications between the rebels and the call from another Imperial facility about the breach in the vault, at which point he hastily gathers together a group of soldiers and leads them down to the vault to investigate. Once there, he also refuses to be taken in by Gorn's attempt to bluff him and pull rank.
- Spanner in the Works: Unfortunately for the infiltration team, Kimzi proves to be more attentive and better at his job than it initially appeared, finding the unblocked frequency the rebels are using to communicate and learning of the heist.
Anoat Sector Command
Ubrik Adelhard
Governor Ubrik Adelhard
Species: Human
Voiced by: Neil Kaplan
Appearances: Uprising
"Any of you who wish to test the Empire's strength, you will answer to me!"
The Imperial governor in charge of the Anoat Sector, home to Bespin and Hoth, at the time of the Battle of Endor. Also, he is the first post-Endor Imperial warlord in the new canon. He is infamous for establishing the Iron Blockade, a sector lockdown in an attempt to prevent word of the Empire's loss from spreading into the Anoat sector, but it managed to slip through regardless and created an inter-sector conflict between the citizens of the sector and Adelhard's Imperial forces.
- Ambition Is Evil: With the power of, well, believing strongly in the Empire, he managed to make his way from being just a Stormtrooper to Sector Governor.
- Big Bad: As the military governor of the Anoat Sector he serves as the main antagonist in Uprising.
- Blatant Lies: His propaganda broadcasts make it sound like the Empire won at Endor and anybody who says otherwise will be shot. This is despite news of the Rebel Alliance's victory circulating readily, making it out to double as Implausible Deniability.
- Beard of Evil: He has got a full-on beard and mustache. A few people have commented that he even looks a bit like Arcturus Mengsk.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Or had, in this case. He had a wife that got killed by Kouhun assassins.
- Evil Sounds Deep: He has a very deep and commanding voice.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: He used to be a mere Stormtrooper, but he gradually rose up the Imperial ranks to where he is by the time of the Battle of Endor.
- General Ripper:
- Well, for one thing he has anybody who dares to tell the truth about what happened at Endor shot and he has imposed a total blockade on the Sector, turning it into his own personal fiefdom.
- And back when he was a junior advisor he convinced everyone that the best way to take care of the dissidents on Anoat (the planet) was to gas the entire thing. The planet became toxic and poisonous, forcing much of the population to flee from the polluted world.
- There Is No Kill Like Overkill: You know what his solution was for the Imperial Army having trouble rooting out rebel cells on the planet Anoat? Bombard the planet with chemical weapons.
- Undying Loyalty: He is a true believer in the Empire and is willing to go on fighting despite the events at Endor.
- Villain in a White Suit: An antagonistic governor who wears a white military uniform, similar to the one Thrawn wore.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: Due to the cancellation of Uprising, we never got to see what happened to Adelhard and his Imperials. Considering that Empire's End reveals that Lando and the Uprising ultimately succeeded in overthrowing the Iron Blockade, he's presumably dead or in hiding.
Bragh
Commander Bragh
Species: Human
Homeworld: Burnin Konn
Voiced by: Matthew Waterson
Appearances: Uprising
"A man who lives for his Empire knows no fear. Anyone else is not a man."

- Character Death: Perished in battle against Riley's sibling at the imperial prison on Anoat's moon Pujool, avenging the purge against the Carbon Score cantina and the death of Happy Dapp.
- Commanding Coolness: That's Commander Bragh to you, Rebel scum.
- Doom Troops: He leads the Purge Troops, which are an elite stormtrooper unit charged with maintaining order.
- The Dragon: He serves as Moff Adelhard's chief lieutenant.
- Knight Templar: Bragh is a true believer in the Empire and he views Rebels as being little better than animals and savages.
- Sadist: He loves inflicting pain and suffering on other people and as a military officer he has the ability to do it often.

Axxila III Garrison
Florn
Florn
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
"Rack up half the flight hours I had before the crash and you can talk as much trash as you want. Or get turned into a fireball — that means you go on the wall and we'll speak well of you. But unitl you do one or the other, you mind your manners."
A retired TIE pilot who works as the bartender of the Zero Angle.
- The Bartender: Of the Zero Angle, where he enforces a Truce Zone between army and navy TIE pilots through his astromech droid Lightning's sonic emitters and shock probe.
- Cyborg: Following a crash, Florn had to be rebuilt with all four limbs being replaced with cybernetics along with his right eye.
- Interservice Rivalry: He hates the rivalry between navy and army TIE pilots, and after a barfight breaks out between members of the two groups he thoroughly chews them both out.Florn: Most flight bases have one bar for ground-hogs and another for vac-heads. You know why the Angle's different? because all your little feuds are a bunch of poodoo. Doesn't matter if you fly in the blue or the black, in goo or vacuum. We all fly suicide sleds — no shields and no defenses. Except for the skill of the hand on the stick.
- Retired Badass: He was an ace TIE pilot who is widely respected by all of the pilots, regardless of what branch they are in.
Nashtah Squadron
An army TIE squadron assigned to the Axxila III Bright Jewel Oversector Flight Base.
Sax Hastur
Squad Leader Sax Hastur
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
"We accomplished the mission. That will happen again. We lost people. That will happen again, too."
The commander of Nashtah Squadron.
- The Chains of Commanding: The casualties his squad has taken seem to be really getting to him, although he tries to hide feelings behind his duty and alcohol.
- Drowning My Sorrows: Although everyone in the squad (with the exception of Chellaine) are doing this, Hastur seems to be the most focused on just drinking away the memories of their last mission instead of starting a bar fight or trying to get philosophical.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Has a small scar going through his left eye.
- The Leader: Of Nashtah Squadron.
- To Absent Friends: He starts off the bonding between Nashtah and Banshee squadrons by reminiscing with Heiwei Akrone over Heiwei's brother Alois and friend Poul Ashanto, two TIE pilots who had gone through the academy with Hastur.
Tana Chellaine
Tana Chellaine
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
A female human pilot in Nashtah squadron.
- Big Ol' Eyebrows: As seen in her image, she has some rather large eyebrows.
- Boyish Short Hair: Her hair is cropped fairly short. Makes sense since she is a pilot and longer hair would be uncomfortable in a helmet and potentially distracting.
- The Teetotaler: She does not drink, only ordering water when the squadron goes to the Zero Angle.
- The Smurfette Principle: She is the only female pilot in the squadron following their last mission, where the others were either killed or badly wounded.
Huck Trompo
Huck Trompo
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
A large male human pilot.
- Blood Knight: He enjoys fighting, and bonds with Banshee Squadron pilot Bruiser after they complimented each on their performance on opposite sides of the barfight.
- Hidden Depths: Chellaine notes that despite his boisterous nature and poor impulse control, Trompo is a great pilot with natural tactical instincts.
- Interservice Rivalry: Like a lot of army TIE pilots, Trompo harbors poor feelings toward navy pilots and jumps at whatever chance he can get to antagonize them.
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: He and Essada don't really get along due to Essada's questioning of the Empire and its methods, which Trompo thinks sounds like something a rebel would say.Trompo: You want to blame someone, Artur? Start with the rebels for once. They claim they're fighting for the common people, and now thousands in that city are dead because of what they did.
Sully Olvar
Sully Olvar
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
A male human pilot and Huck's friend.
- The Generic Guy: Outside of his friendship with Huck, Sully really doesn't have much a personality established during the story.
- Interservice Rivalry: Like Huck, he has an antagonistic attitude toward navy pilots.
- Those Two Guys: With Huck.
Artur Essada
Artur Essada
Species: Human
Appearances: Last Call at the Zero Angle
A contemplative male human TIE pilot questioning the goals and methods of the Empire.
- The Dead Have Names: He gets upset when Hastur does not use the names of two members of their squadron killed during their last mission, although Hastur quickly snaps back at him.Hastur: Then one of our bombers hit the safehouse. Turned out it was full of munitions — the blast vaporized both our Dupe and her escort.
Essada: Riggs and Chan. They had names too, you know.
Hastur: You think I don't remember that? - Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: He and Huck don't really get along due to Essada's questioning of the Empire and its methods.
- Token Good Teammate: While none of his squadmates are evil, Essada is the only one among them who is actively questioning the actions of the Empire.
Desix Garrison
Grotton
Governor Grotton
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Max Mittelman
Appears in: The Bad Batch
An Imperial assigned governorship of Desix.
- Death Glare: He has a scathing one for Cody after he refuses to execute Ames. He keeps it up (as seen in his image above) as more TK Stormtroopers arrive.
- Defiant Captive: Even when 2 Battle Droids refuse to release him, he states that he is the legit Governor of the planet, and even if Desix has its freedom, the Empire would never agree to Ames's terms.
- Exact Words: Even though he was present for the entire conversation in which Cody promised a peaceful resolution if Ames surrendered him, he points out that he never gave his word and immediately turns on her.
- Hate Sink: Even in an episode with as much conflicted morality as "The Solitary Clone", Grotton stands out as nothing but a whiny, treacherous brat of an Imperial. That said, he's at least somewhat decent compared to Nolan, who never cares for Clones, such as Crosshair, at all.
- Karma Houdini: While he was taken hostage for ordering Ames to give the leadership to him, the plan to free him from captivity worked in his favor and he now rules the planet with no comeuppance.
- Manchild: Grotton seems to be a young, untested Imperial who was just given his new job as governor. He makes a noise suggesting he wants one of his TK Stormtroopers to get him out of his seat when they land on Desix, tries bullying Ames into surrendering, and dips into Psychopathic Manchild once he gets freed, screaming at Cody to execute Ames.
- Smug Snake: He smugly snarks to Ames that her request for neutrality was declined given his presence. Once he's captured, he's reduced to whining for his freedom.
- Ungrateful Bastard: He only gives a half-hearted compliment to Cody for getting Ames to peacefully surrender, then demands he go back on his word and execute her.
- Villain Has a Point: Grotton is correct to point out to Ames that the Separatists lost the Clone Wars which means that Desix is hardly in any position to bargain for independence; and that she and her Battle Droids will lose this fight, which is exactly what happens when Cody and Crosshair come to rescue him.
Eriadu Garrison
Maylur
Lieutenant Maylur
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Alain Uy
Appearances: The Bad Batch
A Lieutenant who oversaw security for Tarkin's Raven Peak compound.
- Even Evil Has Standards: He's taken aback when Tarkin orders V-Wings to attack the rail cars with the Bad Batch on them, trying to point out Imperial forces are also on those cars and could get hit in the crossfire, though after Tarkin angrily tells him he's aware of what will happen, Maylur sends the V-Wings anyway.
- Mean Boss: He berates an Imperial Weapon Technician for various malfunctions around the base such as failing security cameras and a crane in the hanger where Hemlock's shuttle is stationed being activated on a whim.
Endor Garrison
An elite legion consisting of both Army and Navy personnel, the Endor garrison is tasked with operating the shield generator that protects the Second Death Star.
- Informed Ability: The Emperor describes Tempest Force, the Endor garrison, as a legion of his best troops, but the well-equipped mooks do not show much more competence than the average stormtrooper. That said, they are actually winning the battle up until the moment that Chewie commandeers an AT-ST and removes their armor support.
Dyer
Colonel Dyer
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Ben Burtt
Appearances: Return of the Jedi
"Freeze!"
An Imperial Army colonel and commanding officer of the garrison's ground troops.

- Colonel Badass: Subverted. Seconds after appearing, he's unceremoniously sent to his death.
- Creator Cameo: Played by soundman and voice actor Ben Burtt (the man who voiced WALL•E), who was the sound designer for the films.
- Disney Villain Death: Gets a Railing Kill from Han and falls to his death offscreen, complete with Wilhelm Scream.
- Railing Kill: Backflips over a walkway railing when Han chucks a box at him.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: Gets about 5 seconds worth of screen time and one word, "Freeze!", before Han nails him with a box and knocks him into a Disney Villain Death.
- Wilhelm Scream: Gives one of these when he falls to his death, as Burrt wanted to record it himself.
Altadan Igar
Commander Altadan Igar
Species: Human
Homeworld: Kuat
Portrayed by: William Hoyland
Appearances: The Man Who Captured Luke Skywalker | Return of the Jedi
"This is the Rebel that surrendered to us."
An Imperial Army commander and commanding officer of the AT-AT attached to the Endor base. Luke surrenders himself to Igar, who then delivers him to Darth Vader.
- Benevolent Boss: For an Imperial commander, Igar treats his men well, allowing them to gripe in ways that many Imperial officers would never allow and using their names instead of trooper numbers.
- A Day in the Limelight: The short story, "The Man Who Captured Luke Skywalker" focuses on him, revealing that he once served the Galactic Republic in the Clone Wars when the Separatists invaded his homeworld of Kuat.
- Freudian Excuse: The reason he supports the Empire and hates the Jedi is due to fighting alongside one in the Clone Wars. The Jedi led a charge against a Separatist fortress, and although they took it, many of Igar's comrades died in the assault. He tells Luke that only a mad commander would have led such a charge and that his friends died for nothing and that he considers the Jedi's belief in the Force to be what drove them to treason.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: Despite being ordered by Darth Vader to search for the Rebels, Igar does not appear again, even during the battle at the shield generator complex.
Hewex
Major Hewex
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Anthony Smee
Appearances: Return of the Jedi
"Send three squads to help! Open the back door!"
The senior operator in the shield bunker.
- Majorly Awesome: Keeps his cool even as the Rebels seize the control room, then personally disarms Chewie of his bowcaster once Stormtroopers capture them.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: A villainous example. Hewex is fooled by Han Solo into thinking the Rebels have been routed and dispatches reinforcements, which instead gets him and his squad trapped and allows the Rebels to finally capture the bunker. This leads to the destruction of the shield generator, and with it, the destruction of the Second Death Star.
Renz
Lieutenant Renz
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Barrie Holland
Appearances: Return of the Jedi
An officer serving in the shield generator bunker.
- Evil Sounds Deep: Has a very deep voice.
- Mook Lieutenant: The leader of Colonel Dyer's Stormtrooper squad.
- Small Role, Big Impact: He's only in two brief scenes, including once in the background, but after the death of his superior Dyer, he personally leads a squadron of Stormtroopers captures the Rebel strikeforce, rescuing Major Hewex and his technicians from captivity.
Newland and Blanaid
Major Newland and Lieutenant Blanaid
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Richard Marquand and Robert Watts
Appearances: Return of the Jedi
The pilot and gunner of an AT-ST attached to the Endor base.
- Cool Helmet Both wear the same style of helmet as General Veers did in Empire
- Creator Cameo: Newland was played by Jedi's director and Blanaid by a co-producer. This led to their initial namesakes in Legends.
- Disney Villain Death: Blanaid gets tossed from the walker by Chewbacca.
- Vehicular Turnabout: Chewbacca and a couple Ewoks knock out Newland and toss Blanaid from the access hatch, then use the AT-ST to blast the remaining walkers.
- Walking Tank: The AT-ST serves as a light tank or infantry fighting vehicle.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: They don't appear for long before they're removed from control of their AT-ST.
Raab Krao
Raab Krao (TK-151)
Species: Human
Homeworld: Socorro
Portrayed by: ???
Appears in: Gone to the Winner's Circle | Return of the Jedi
Once a top swoop bike racer on the Inner Rim circuits, Raab enlisted in the Imperial Army after his brother was killed in a rebel bombing after their garage was mistaken for an Imperial field station. Due to his skill on a speeder bike he was assigned to the Endor garrison.
- Ascended Extra: He is a nameless scout trooper in the film but is given a sympathetic backstory and POV chapter in FACPOV: Return of the Jedi.
- Badass Normal: Just a regular human whose racing skills and accuracy actually threaten both Luke and Leia's lives, with him knocking Luke off his speeder and nearly running him down.
- Died in Your Arms Tonight: His brother passed away in his arms in the ruins of their racing garage after it was bombed by the Rebellion.
- Military Maverick: He frequently flouts regulations and is somewhat insubordinate, but his superiors let it slid because Raab is just that skilled of a speeder bike pilot.
- Revenge: His primary motivation is vengeance against the Rebellion due to them taking the last member of his family, his livelihood, and almost all his possessions from him in their bombing.
Ferrix Garrison
Vanis Tigo
Captain Vanis Tigo
"I'd like to hang him. What's left of him anyway. Make sure they know who's in charge."
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Wilf Scolding
Appears in: Andor
"Could I be made Prefect? The title. I know it doesn't come with extra pay."
An Imperial officer assigned to command the newly established garrison on Ferrix in 5 BBY.
- Ambition Is Evil: Wants to be called the prefect and be seen as the face of the Empire on Ferrix. Everything he says and does suggests Tigo is a man who joined the Empire because he wants authority over people.
- Authority in Name Only: Although he does command the garrison, the ISB is directing all of the operations on the planet. Tigo tries to puff up his own image by requesting permission from Blevin to be called Prefect after being put in charge of Ferrix, even lampshading it won't actually increase his power or salary but wanting to claim an important title. Blevin on his part doesn't care if Tigo started wearing a ball gown as long as he establishes order on Ferrix.
- The Bully: He seems to enjoy using his authority to scare the people of Ferrix into submission.
- Dirty Coward: Crawls to safety through his soldiers during the fighting at the funeral and shouts orders from the safety of an alcove. Beneath his bullying demeanor, he's obviously just a jumped-up, low-level grunt desperate to exert whatever power he can get and incapable of taking what he dishes out.
- Evil Is Petty: Wants to hang Salman despite him being basically brain dead to "show everyone who's in charge."
- General Failure: His actions during the riot of Ferrix only make things worse for the Imperials.
- Hate Sink: Vanis Tigo is a bully who wants to use what little authority he has to make the lives of the people of Ferrix a living nightmare. He’s incredibly petty, sadistic and short-sighted, and his actions lead to a riot taking place against the Imperial forces located in Ferrix. On top of that, he shows that beneath his cruel demeanour, he’s actually a massive coward. As he pathetically starts to crawl away, from the battle he caused, the moment things start getting ugly. Capping it off, he gives the order for the Imperials to fire into the unarmed crowd.
- Interservice Rivalry: He is clearly chafing under Deedra's direction during the planning to capture Cassian, resenting her orders that countermand his own ideas and even verbally muttering about how much time is being wasted by the search for him.
- Jerkass: Tigo is a very unpleasant individual, as evident by every other trope to describe him.
- Kick the Dog: During Maarva Andor's funeral he kicks over B2EMO to stop a projection of her final words. This act is the final straw that causes the people of Ferrix to riot against ISB's presence in their city.
- Mook Lieutenant: He may command the garrison, but Vanis is taking his marching orders from the ISB as they conduct their investigation into what happened on Ferrix.
- Not-So-Harmless Villain: While he is revealed to be a Dirty Coward later on, he recognizes Bix among a crowd of Ferrix's people, causing him to order Keysax and his men to capture her for the ISB to interrogate on Cassian's whereabouts.
- Psychotic Smirk: Sports one while eagerly asking Dedra for permission to hang Salman Pak as a way of establishing his authority over Ferrix.
- Sadist: He looks a bit too eager to hang Salman’s body for no real reason other then because he can. He also yells at his troops to open fire on unarmed civilians, turning the riot into a bloodbath.
- Too Dumb to Live: What exactly did he think was going to happen when he kicked B2EMO in front of an angry crowd?
Merzin Keysax
Lieutenant Merzin Keysax
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Nick Moss
Appears in: Andor
An Imperial officer serving under Captain Tigo.
- Bald of Evil: Has a shaved head.
- Hypercompetent Sidekick: In comparison to Tigo, Keysax is a lot braver and quick to action, particularly during the uprising at Maarva's funeral, where he's in the thick of the action amidst blaster fire and explosions whilst his nominal superior gives orders from a safe distance.
- Pet the Dog:
- Speaks kindly and softly to the thoroughly traumatized Bix when taking her to meet with Tigo and Corv. Given the way he acts in other scenes, though, it's likely just him being Faux Affably Evil or do a Good Cop/Bad Cop in an effort to get Bix to tell him and his fellow officers where Cassian is.
- He also holds back on ordering lethal action to be taken against the people of Ferrix even after a bomb was thrown at him, until Tigo gives the command.
- Suddenly Shouting: When Tigo recognizes Bix in a crowd, Keysax starts screaming at the assembled Imperials to go after her.
- Villainous Valour: Compared to his superior who immediately goes to hide behind an alcove, Keysax is right there in the middle with the troops.
Imvur Garrison
Viggen
Commanding Officer Viggen
Species: Human
Appearances: Rebels Magazine
A male human officer who led an assault against the Imvur rebels.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: His lieutenant suggested starting with an orbital bombardment in the assault against the Imvur rebels. Instead, Viggen chooses an immediate ground assault with AT-ATs. What happens? He loses and the rebels flee to live another day.

Mann
Captain Mann
Species: Human
Voiced by: Harry Lloyd
Appearances: The Bad Batch
An Imperial Captain in charge of the town.
- Asshole Victim: This greedy, animal trafficking officer won't be missed when a Rahtar eats him alive.
- Bad People Abuse Animals: Runs an animal trafficking operation that consists of pets and animals he snatched from the townspeople, including Batcher.
- Batman Gambit: Steals Batcher under Omega and Crosshair's noses, knowing damn well that Omega would want her back and he can earn back the rest of the credits he lost, while he sells them out to Hemlock and the Advanced Science Division.
- Fatal Flaw: Greed. He already scammed Omega out of some of the money he lost and could've just left Batcher alone, while letting Omega and Crosshair leave without a fight so he could report them to Hemlock and the Advanced Science Division. However, his stealthy kidnapping of Batcher and his subsequent demand of all the remaining credits to be returned to him, cause Omega to agree to do things Crosshair's way by releasing the animals he kidnapped, Batcher included, and a quick escape on a ship, while Mann is eaten alive by a Rahtar.
- Fat Bastard: As expected of other Imperials. His weight could put Jayhold Beehaz and Brendol Hux to shame.
- I Own This Town: Brags this to Omega and Crosshair when he has them dead to rights and could report them to Hemlock.
- Pet the Dog: He genuinely compliments the droid bartender for a great drink and for business being good for him and his men.
- Villain of the Week: He's the main Imperial obstacle in "A Different Approach" for Omega and Crosshair to overcome and is eaten by a Rahtar he was smuggling in his animal trafficking operation.

Mimban Garrison
Alayus Bolandin
Lieutenant Alayus Bolandin
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Hal Fowler
Appearances: Solo
An officer of the 224th Imperial Armored Division. Eight years after the establishment of the Empire, Bolandin was part of the occupation forces attempting to pacify the Mimbanese Resistance.
- Failed a Spot Check: Unlike Han, he does not notice all the inconsistencies among Beckett and his crew's uniforms, including the rather obvious blaster bolt hole in Becket's armor.
- Jerkass: Quite unpleasant and happy to have an excuse to execute Han, whom he regards as a troublemaker and detriment to the Empire.
- Mook Lieutenant: He is a low-ranked officer assigned to one of the worst garrisons in the Empire.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: By order Han to be thrown to the "beast" instead of just shot for desertion, Bolandin ends up uniting the greatest smuggling duo the galaxy has ever seen and future heroes of the Rebellion who are key to the Empire's defeat.
- Psycho Supporter: Supports the Empire's goal of bringing peace and prosperity to the Galaxy 8 years after the Clone Wars have ended, and sees the Mimbanese Resistance as enemies who are trying to disrupt the very peace Palpatine achieved.
- You Are in Command Now: Takes Major Staz's place as captain of the 224th Imperial Armored Division after Staz is killed in battle against the Mimbanese Resistance.
Narkina 5 Garrison
The Voice of God
"The Voice of God"
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Martin Ware
Appears in: Andor
"On program."
The Imperial official in charge of the prison on Narkina 5. As befitting his nickname, the technicians assisting him in the control room are called "Apostles."
- Blasphemous Boast: His nickname obviously. It takes being a special kind of arrogant asshole to literally call yourself "God". It's also a downright hilarious instance of Small Name, Big Ego, considering he's nothing more then a dweebish technician running a backwater penitentiary who's only power comes from electrocuted floors.
- Dirty Coward: Pretty much folds like wet cardboard the minute he has a gun in his face. The same goes for his subordinates. In fairness to them, despite them running the prison, it's obvious they're all just technicians, even "God."
- Electric Torture: His main method of instilling discipline among the prisoners, either by his guards' use of "zap rods" or by "volting the floor" (electrifying the entire floor of a level). In the latter case, it's used to kill an entire level's worth of inmates.
- Karma Houdini: Likely only because they'd killed so many Imperials escaping, but despite giving the order to massacre all the prisoners on Level 2, or doing it himself with the push of a button, Cassian and Kino make a conscious decision not to kill him or his remaining "Apostle." Then again, considering the Empire's typical treatment of failures, it's hard to imagine he's got a bright future ahead of him after his colossal screw-up.
- The Guards Must Be Crazy: Despite his authority and power he relies way too heavily on automation and the prisoners' compliance, utilizing virtually no direct visual or audio surveillance and assigning a grand total of twelve guards to each level. Needless to say, the second the Empire's prisoners figure this out, they rise up, and "God" for all of his power can do nothing to stop them.
- Ironic Nickname: There's nothing especially godly about this guy, either in terms of benevolence or power. His nickname is basically just a sick, cruel joke probably meant to break the prisoners' spirits even more.
- The Man Behind the Curtain: Is almost only ever encountered as a booming voice coming over the P.A. system issuing orders to the guards and inmates. He's eventually revealed to be just a normal, not even terribly threatening man.
- The Man Behind the Man: While the intake warden is the face of the Empire at the prison, it's this guy who actually runs the place and gives everyone their orders.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: Isn't actually ever identified as anything except "The Voice of God."
- Small Name, Big Ego: Despite his blasphemous and egotistical title, he's ultimately just a pathetic and dweebish bureaucrat running a minor prison on a backwater planet, with the only "power" he has wielded against a bunch of hapless prisoners and his equally douchey lackeys.
- This Cannot Be!: Is very surprised when he turns around to find Kino and Cassian standing in the control room, uttering a disbelieving and frankly understated "You shouldn't be here."
- Wardens Are Evil: He's an Imperial and in charge of a highly regimented prison that uses the inmates as slave labor, punishing them with Electric Torture if they get out of line and even orders the deaths of an entire level following a mistake that sees a recently paroled prisoner get accidentally sent back rather than admit his mistake.
Intake Warden
"Intake Warden"
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Paul McEwan
Appears in: Andor
The head guard at the prison. As his name suggests, he's primarily in charge of introducing new prisoners to the way the Empire does things at Narkina 5.
- Dirty Coward: Hides in a storage room with his men during the breakout. And unlike his superior, who clearly has no combat experience, the intake warden is supposed to be the chief guard of the facility, is armed and combat trained and supposed to handle exactly the kind of situation he's cowering away from.
- Karma Houdini: Survives the breakout because he hides with his few surviving men, but given the fates of other Imperials who have failed thus far in the show, it's hard to imagine he'll get off scott-free.
- Know When to Fold 'Em: He and his men hide in a storage room knowing Kino is absolutely right that they are outnumbered a hundred to one by thousands of angry, armed men.
- Mook Lieutenant: "God" may run the prison, but the intake warden is the guy who actually commands the guards.
- No Name Given: He's just called "Intake Warden" in the credits.
- The Unfought: Hides in a storeroom with his men when the inmates riot and storm the upper levels.
- Wardens Are Evil: Much more so than "God." Whereas "God" is at best callously indifferent and several levels removed from the pain and misery he inflicts from the control room, the intake warden gets up close and personal with new arrivals and delights in making them suffer.
Box Guard # 1
"Box Guard #1"
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Anton Valensi
Appears in: Andor
"Zap rod. If I have to use it, you'll remember it."
One of the guards in the Level 5 "box" (control room overseeing the factory floor). He's in charge of delivering new men onto the floor by way of the elevator.
- Evil Is Petty: With a dash of Skewed Priorities. When the uprising begins, he chooses to electrocute the new guy he was bringing in, even though the guy hadn't actually done anything.
- Evil Old Folks: Is visibly older than any of the other guards on Level 5 or anywhere else in the prison that we see.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: Gets his own "zap rod" used against him by the very guy he just got done torturing with it, causing him to topple off the elevator.
- No Name Given: Like all the other Narkina 5 Imperial personnel, he's just known by what he's called in the credits (Box Guard #1," in this case).
- Laser-Guided Karma: His insistence on continuing to electrocute the new guy despite the fact he hadn't done anything leads to the previously meek prisoner fighting grab, getting the Shock Stick away from him and using it against him.
- Shock Stick: Like most of the Narkina 5 guards, he wields what is referred to as a "zap rod," essentially a very powerful cattle prod. He loves threatening to use it against new arrivals.
- Skewed Priorities: When he's trapped on the elevator alone with the new guy and Birnok is climbing up to them, he seems more interested in continuing to zap the new arrival rather than focusing on Birnok, and when one of the men standing above him yells for him to get down so he can have a clear shot at Birnok, but he instead just yells "What are you doing?!" and keeps zapping the new guy without ducking despite the other guard's clear intentions. Evil Is Petty indeed.
- Soft-Spoken Sadist: He speaks softly and seems to delight in threatening new arrivals with the use of his "zap rod."
- Uncertain Doom: It's unclear if the new guy electrocuting him with his own stun rod killed him or not. If that didn't, he could've died falling headfirst from the elevator or when the other guards try to "volt the floor."
Raxus Garrison
Bragg
Captain Bragg
Species: Human
Voiced by: Shelby Young
Appearances: The Bad Batch
An Imperial captain tasked with bringing order to the Imperial occupation of Raxus.
- Aloof Dark-Haired Girl: She’s pretty cold and detached from others, making her a prime member of a fascist regime that prides itself on choking the life out of any dissenters.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Seemingly tries to come off as a well-meaning, fair leader but nobody falls for it, especially on a former Separatist planet whose fears about the Republic have seemingly been vindicated.
- Deadpan Snarker: She can trade in her cold condescension for snark if the situation calls for it.
- Enemy Eats Your Lunch: Once she has Singh as a captive, she starts helping herself to the wine in his bar in front of him while further trying to taunt him into submission.
- Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: She's quite a beautiful woman but is a cold, cruel Imperial who lacks empathy for other living beings who don't submit to the Empire or are otherwise regarded as tools for the Empire (as with the clones).
- Faux Affably Evil: She has a very rehearsed and clinical tone of voice that sounds like it’s trying to be civil and polite, but it doesn’t hide how she’s a loyal Imperial happy to resort to torture to get what she needs.
- Here We Go Again!: The way she rolls her eyes and casually has Singh arrested on the spot suggests she’s pretty used to dissenters even by this point.
- Icy Blue Eyes: She has piercing, cold blue eyes and is a loyal Imperial.
- Ink-Suit Actor: She is pretty much just her voice actor Shelby Young but in animated form, as this video
from her shows. - Lack of Empathy: Completely disregards the clones as people on Courscant despite commanding some of them on Raxus, dispassionately directing three of them to the Imperial Information Bureau for any further questions about what they can do now which is her way of saying she couldn't care less during "The Outpost".
- Lean and Mean: A very lithe woman who’s also very loyal to the Empire.
- Rule of Symbolism: Her actions with Singh after she arrests him are a great symbol of what the Empire does to the people of the galaxy. She pretends to be polite and understanding but resorts to force and torture the moment Singh steps out of line. She also indulges in the wine in his bar now that she’s got his furnishings to herself, just like how the Empire pillages planets for their resources. In other words, she’s just now openly doing what she was going to do to Singh and Raxus anyway.
- Smug Snake: Though she’s more detached and less obnoxious about it than other Imperials, every word she says is steeped in condescension towards the other characters for trying to defy the Empire.
- Villain of the Week: The main threat of "Common Ground" as the Batch must free Singh from her. She later appears in a minor cameo in "The Outpost".
- Why Did You Make Me Hit You?: In her speech to Raxus she chides the people of Raxus for their negative reactions to the Empire's curfew and other authoritarian actions given all the Empire wants is to make everything great and help them, and they're just inviting it onto themselves.
Ryloth Garrison
Delian Mors
Moff Delian Mors
Species: Human
Appearances: Lords of the Sith | Mercy Mission
An Imperial Sector Governor over the planet Ryloth.
- Brawn Hilda: She's pudgy but still somewhat physically imposing.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: She has a very laid back command style, which is highly unusual for an Imperial officer. It comes from the fact that she is in a rut from the death of her wife. The events of the book cause her to drop the lazy part.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Loved her deceased wife dearly, and her death sent her into a spiral of depression and hedonism.
- Fantastic Racism: Not of the traditional kind, but she chose her servants because their pale green skin matched the trees, which any way you slice it is extremely objectifying.
- Functional Addict: She is a spice user but she is still capable of doing her job. At least, when she is interested or motivated enough to do it.
- The Hedonist: She definitely was enjoying the fruits of her position in Ryloth.
- Insistent Terminology: She refers to her conscripted Twi'leks as servants, not slaves.
- The Lost Lenore: Her personal life fell apart following the death of her wife, Murra, in a transport accident on Coruscant, which led to her losing interest in carrying out her duties and simply living in luxury on Ryloth's jungle moon.
- A Mother to Her Men: Mors actually does care about the soldiers and officers under her command.
- Reassigned to Antarctica: She has been tasked with what the rest of the Imperial Military considers a far-away and unwanted assignment. She treats it as unofficial semi-retirement.
- Undying Loyalty: The Emperor notes that while she may have many flaws, Mors is utterly loyal to the Empire and would not betray it to the Twi'leks.
- Villainous Friendship: She and Steen Borkas are friends, and Mors comes to regret how she ignored him while letting Dray do as he wished.
- Villain Protagonist: A secondary one to Darth Vader in Lords of the Sith.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: She isn't seen or mentioned in Rebels when Ryloth is visited, with the local Imperial antagonist being Captain Slavin.
Belkor Dray
Colonel Belkor Dray
Species: Human
Appearances: Lords of the Sith
An Imperial Army officer under Moff Mors' command, holding complete operational control over Imperial forces on Ryloth.
- Ambition Is Evil: Dray is only concerned about his own career and advancement and is willing to do anything to further it. Like leaking information to Cham's rebels.
- Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Let's see, not only does he betray Mors' trust but he sells the Empire out to Cham's rebels and later when things go south he turns on Cham's group.
- Dragon-in-Chief: Mors does little besides lounge around in her moon compound with her slaves, with Dray taking up the task of running Imperial affairs on Ryloth, a situation he is more than happy to exploit.
- Establishing Character Moment: He spends a moment schooling his features so Mors can't see the disdain he has for her. When they meet, she immediately picks up on it (albeit assuming he dislikes her Hutt guest and general decadance rather than her personally). He likes to think he's a mastermind, but he's far from it.
- Even Evil Has Standards: He seems to hold genuine contempt for Mors, among other things, being a drug addict and owning slaves.
- Everyone Has Standards: He's ambitous, corrupt, and happy to scheme against Moff Mors, but he'd never be party to a plan to assassinate the Emperor or Vader. Cham exploits this, confirming the news that the two are coming to Ryloth by grilling Dray on it. When Dray says they aren't coming, Cham knows the news isn't just bait for the rebels.
- He Knows Too Much: Even though Mors could easily capture Dray at the end of Lords of the Sith, she instead opts to destroy his scout craft with a missile since he could reveal the full extent of Mors' negligence to the Emperor if taken alive.
- Mook Lieutenant: Dray is in charge of Imperial ground forces on Ryloth.
- Non-Action Guy: He has not fired a blaster since basic training, and notes that if Cham or Isval tried to kill him at their meeting he would be doomed.
- Number Two: To Mors.
- Oh, Crap!: Has two notable moments of this in Lords of the Sith. The first is when he realizes that Cham has completely manipulated him for years. The second is when he learns that Cham's assassination plot was not targeting just Senator Orn Free Taa, but Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader.
- Sanity Slippage: As the situation on Ryloth worsens and Cham manipulates Dray further, he becomes very clearly mentally unhinged.
- Smug Snake: Dray is a very arrogant man and this arrogance blinds him to the fact that other people are playing him. Cham is more than happy to point this out.
- The Starscream: He is doing his damnedest to undermine Moff Mors and he has got his eye on her job.
- Underestimating Badassery: He thinks very little of Mors, believing her to be incompetent. However, even in their very first scene she catches him off-guard with several questions about the Free Ryloth Movement and has information which he does not, showing that his spite for her has blinded Dray to Mors very real capabilities.
- Unwitting Pawn: To Cham, who manipulated Dray for years while Dray thought he was the one doing the manipulation. His realization that Cham has always held all their cards in their arrangement begins Dray's long and very painful downfall.
- Villainous Breakdown: He loses it when his and Cham's plans start coming undone in the end, going from crying to giggling to having a conversation with the corpse of the pilot he shot.
Steen Borkas
Major Steen Borkas
Species: Human
Appearances: Lords of the Sith
A officer in command of the Equatorial Communications center on Ryloth.
- Consummate Professional: He runs a very efficient operation at the communications center and has a great deal of contempt for ambitious and scheming officers like Dray.
- Majorly Awesome: Ready to spring into action with only a single squad of Stormtroopers and technicians.
- Mook Lieutenant: He was in the same class as Moff Mors and unlike Colonel Dray, Borkas is competent and dutiful. Mors immediately regrets that she did not put Borkas in charge of operations.
- Passed-Over Promotion: Dray and his cronies were promoted over him, despite Borkas being more loyal and competent than them. Mors comes to regret doing that and apologizes to him.
- Undying Loyalty: To Mors. He understands that her behavior over the past several years is due to grief over the loss of her wife, and although he admits he was angry about not being promoted and essentially ignored by Mors, Borkas still supports her one-hundred percent.
- Villainous Friendship: With Mors, and it survives her depression and overlooking him for promotion.
Slavin
Captain Slavin
See his entry on the Imperial Navy page.
Scarif Garrison
Despite its critical role in the Imperial military, the Citadel on Scarif is regarded as a cushy posting, with many officers considering being assigned there as semi-retirement. While the Stormtroopers garrisoned there remain vigilant and combat ready, the rest of the garrison has become lax in their duties guarding the Empire's most valuable secrets.
Sotorus Ramda
General Sotorus Ramda
Species: Human
Homeworld: Rine-cathe 111
Portrayed by: Richard Cunningham
Appearances: Rogue One
Commander of the Scarif Garrison, Ramda was awarded with command of the Citadel after crushing a rebellion on Syni IV. He enjoys his posting on the tropical planet due to its pleasant weather and unlikelihood of the conflict against the Rebellion reaching his highly secure facility.
- General Failure: His first reaction to explosions going off across the Imperial facility on Scarif is to gape in disbelief. It takes Director Krennic yelling at Ramda and the rest of his officers to snap out of it and begin issuing orders, most of which come from Krennic's prompting.
- Overranked Soldier: Given the sensitive materials being held at the Citadel, you would think the Empire would put someone with a bit more competence than Ramda in charge.
- Uncertain Doom: The novelization notes that Jyn and Cassian encounter no Imperials as they make their way down the Citadel and onto the beach before the Death Star destroys the base, with Jyn assuming they evacuated before the blast hit. If Ramda did make it offworld alive, he was likely executed for his failure to defend the facility and prevent the broadcasting of the plans, since part of the reason Tarkin ordered the Death Star to fire was to purge the lazy and incompetent officers of Scarif from the military, with Ramda at the top of that list.
Gorin
Admiral Gorin
Species: Human
Portrayed by: Michael Gould
Appearances: Rogue One
The captain of the Intimidator and commander of the Imperial flotilla guarding the imperial archives on Scarif.
- General Failure: Despite having two Star Destroyers under his command, he fails to use them correctly when caught by surprise and is overwhelmed by the Rebel fleet.
- Mook Lieutenant: Another in a long line of Imperial Admirals.
- Oh, Crap!: His face he realizes the disabled Persecutor is going to crash into the Intimidator. Gorin desperately tries to order evasive action, but it is far too late.
Mytus Adema
Lieutenant Mytus Adema
Species: Human
Homeworld: A.17
Portrayed by: Jack Roth
Appearances: Rogue One
An ambitious officer at the Citadel, Adema is disgusted by General Ramda and many other officers' lax attitude towards their duties.
- Hyper-Competent Sidekick: Unlike other Imperial officers on Scarif, Adema does not treat his posting to the planet as a vacation. In fact, he is building up a account of all the ways Ramda is incompetent and plans on bringing it forward to Krennic in order to get the general removed.
- Mission Control: Serves as one of the chief officers in the Citadel control room and helps direct the response to the Rebel assault. It is in this role that Adema gets tricked by Bodhi and Tonc sending false reports over the comm system about Rebel movements.
- Mook Lieutenant: One of several on Scarif.
- Uncertain Doom: It is unknown if Adema managed to evacuate the Citadel before the Death Star fired.
Milton Putna
Lieutenant Milton Putna
Species: Human
Portrayed by: ???
Appearances: Rogue One
"Can I help you?"
A former librarian turned Imperial security officer in charge of the Scarif archives.
- Borrowed Biometric Bypass: Jyn and Cassian have to use his hand to open the door to the archive vault.
- Tap on the Head: K-2SO whacks him on the noggin, and down he goes. Justified since K-2 is a droid and has powerful metal hands.
- Uncertain Doom: It's unknown if K-2's thwack on the head killed him or not. If he survived, he was probably killed when the Death Star destroys the Citadel.
Sullust Garrison
SP-475
Thara Nyende / SP-475
Species: Human
Homeworld: Sullust
Appearances: Battlefront: Twilight Company
A young woman born on Sullust who uses her position to support her uncle and the Cobalt Front miners that frequent his cantina - however, whilst on duty she is SP-475 of the Ninety-Seventh Stormtrooper Legion, ordered to enforce ever more draconian laws as the Rebellion step up their attacks.
- And Now for Someone Completely Different: Her main role in the plot is mainly to illustrate what the Galactic Civil War looks like from the perspective of an Imperial soldier, and to demonstrate how a comparatively normal, empathetic person manages to internally justify the Empire's atrocities.
- Gas Mask Mooks: Reconstructed and then desconstructed. Thara adores the ritual of donning her armour and obliterating her identity, because in her mind, it represents leaving all of her personal weaknesses behind and becoming a symbol of the Empire's strength. Later, when she's traumatised by a suicide bombing yet is rotated back into duty like any other anonymous Stormtrooper, she starts suffering panic attacks that make her doubt if she's truly fit to represent the Empire.
- Undying Loyalty: Ultimately demonstrates this towards the Empire - even whilst wounded and fighting a losing battle, she locks down Sullust's medical clinic and declares it Imperial territory.
- Wide-Eyed Idealist: Thara truly believes that the Empire is best for Sullust, and that their increasingly draconian peacekeeping measures are a Necessary Evil in response to the Rebellion's attacks.
Tatooine Garrison
Kosh
Captain Kosh
Species: Human
Homeworld: Tatooine
Appearances: Commander
An Imperial Captain who was stationed on his homeworld of Tatooine as the commander of the Imperial garrison there, overseeing the conflict against Jennica Pierce's local rebel cell.
- Canon Immigrant: He originally appeared in the now-Legends book Heroes in Hiding.
- The Captain: Held the rank of Captain.
- Evil Counterpart: To Jennica Pierce, being the character who assigns missions to Saponza's gang if they chose to work with the Empire.
- Evil Old Folks: He is an elderly officer who works for the Empire.
- Mission Control: He is the character that assigns missions in Commander if Saponza's gang has chosen to align themselves with the Empire.
Davin Felth
Davin Felth
Species: Human
Portrayed by: ???note
Appearances: A New Hope
"Look, sir! Droids!"
Following the escape of two droids from the Rebel cruiser Tantive IV after it was captured by Imperial forces above the planet Tatooine, Felth was amongst a squad of Sandtroopers sent to search for the droids in the desert.
- Canon Immigrant: He was first identified as Davin Felth in short story When the Desert Wind Turns: The Stormtrooper's Tale, as part of the 1995 anthology book Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, which is no longer canon. His name and identity are re-canonized in "Dominate the Desert", an article published on Fantasy Flight Games' official site in 2019.
- Mook Lieutenant: He held the rank of Sergeant, as indicated by his white pauldron, and the Number Two to his captainnote .
- Schrödinger's Canon:
- In the aforementioned Star Wars Legends story, he comes to realize the Empire he had served his entire life is evil as his commanding officer, Captain Mod Terrik, orders numerous innocents killed in the hunt for the droids he himself had revealed were in the escape pod and, as the Millennium Falcon takes off from Tatooine, he frags his commander and resolves to become a Double Agent for the Rebellion, with the rest of his squadron none the wiser.
- His designation was 1023.
Vandor Garrison
Denwade Banevans
Denwade Banevans
Species: Human
Homeworld: Carida
Portrayed by: ???
Appearances: Solo
A Range Trooper captain tasked with the protection of a conveyex train, and fought off Tobias Beckett's gang during a heist.
- All There in the Manual: He is only named in the film's Official Guide
- The Captain: He held the rank of Captain.
- Fur and Loathing: Range Troopers armor include fur on shoulders and kama, probably because they're stationed in a cold planet.
- Homage: His name was created as an homage to 3:10 to Yuma (1957), being an amalgamation of two characters, Ben Wade and Dan Evans.
- Large and in Charge: He stood 1.80 meters (5 foot, 11 inches) tall and is the Captain of his squad.
- Man in a Kilt: His armor includes a synth-fur line kama.
- Train Job: Fittingly as Solo is a Space Western movie, it has Imperial troopers guarding a train. Denwade is one of them.
- Tricked-Out Shoes: He and his troopers are equipped with gription boots which allowed sure footing atop fast-moving vehicles.
Vetine Garrison
Hurron
Commandant Hurron
Species: Human
Appearances: Shattered Empire
"There are only two people in the galaxy who could freely access this room. Myself and the Emperor himself. I am all that remains."
The commander of a highly secure Imperial base and research facility on Vetine.- Arc Villain: Although he only appears in one issue, he is essentially the main villain of Shattered Empire due to his control of the base where the Imperial messenger droids containing the Emperor's plans for Operation: Cinder were dispatched from.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: When he realizes that his stormtroopers will never be able to penetrate Luke's lightsaber defense, he orders them to throw thermal detonators instead. Luke simply uses the Force to catch them and send them hurling back to Hurron and his men, who are killed when the detonators explode.
- Secret-Keeper: The lab at the heart of the base was only accessible to Hurron and the Emperor, and thus Hurron was one of the few beings in the galaxy who knew what was inside. He was utterly perplexed why two tree saplings needed such heavy levels of security, being unaware they were from the tree that sat at the heart of the Jedi Temple.
- Smug Snake: When he thinks that he has Luke and Shara Bey at his mercy, he treats them with nothing but contempt and monologues. Then Luke proceeds to utterly destroy Hurron and his men.
