"5387 and 5389, follow me. Call in reinforcements!"
―A stormtrooper gives orders to 5387[1]

5387 was the designation of a stormtrooper who served as part of a remnant of the Galactic Empire led by Moff Gideon, being stationed at a base on the volcanic planet Nevarro.[1] Around 9 ABY,[2] a group of infiltrators sabotaged the base's cooling system, which prevented the control of Nevarro's lava. 5387 and fellow stormtrooper 5389 were called upon by one of their stormtrooper comrades to follow the trooper. The pair followed, ignorant to the fact that the infiltrators were watching from afar.[1]

Behind the scenes

5387 appeared in "Chapter 12: The Siege" of Jon Favreau's 2019 Disney+ television series The Mandalorian, directed by Carl Weathers[1] and released on November 20, 2020.[3]
