"I am Chief Engineer Olum. I ran the engineering team until Captain, excuse me, Grand Admiral Sait decided the Empire wasn't the place for him. I am the only one of the dissenting officers that wasn't thrown out an air lock. I guess they figured they might need me some day."
―Chief Engineer Olum[1]

Olum was a Chief engineer in the Imperial military during the Galactic Civil War. He served aboard Blackguard, an Imperial-class Star Destroyer commanded by Grand Admiral Andal Sait. He was involved in the schemes of a Rodian smuggler Ubis Reendorr.

Chief Engineer Olum aboard the Blackguard

At some point Olum was contacted by Reendorr, who needed to smuggle a Rebel agent aboard Blackguard. Olum found the Rebel, smuggled aboard inside a cargo container with a shipment of bacta, and provided him with Imperial uniforms and a datapad with the ship's layout. The Rebel got himself into a firefight with Imperials, but was able to get what he came for. Olum covered his escape by pointing him the way to a nearby shuttle and adjusting the ship's transponder, which allowed the agent to escape the Star Destroyer.[3]
