- "You must be the commanding officer who survived the attack. Welcome. I have just been briefed on the unfortunate turn of events at Desolation Station."
"Sir, I am sure that you are upset, but I can assure you…"
"Upset? I'm not upset, Captain."
"Sir, I put the blame for this failure squarely at the feet of—UGHH!!" - ―X1 and the commander, at the latter's execution
A Human commander was in charge of Desolation Station, a facility that supplied the Imperial Death Star superweapon project. When the facility was destroyed by the Rebel Alliance, the commander was blamed and executed for the incident by the project's overseer, X1.
Biography
The Imperial commander is brought before X1.
A light-skinned Human individual who served the Galactic Empire as a captain during the Galactic Civil War was the commanding officer of Desolation Station, an asteroid-based facility that produced superlaser components for the Imperial Death Star superweapon.[2] Between 2 BBY and 0 BBY,[1] the last of those components, the tributary beam, was complete and ready to be delivered to the under-construction Death Star. However, the Rebel Alliance raided Desolation Station, with the Force-sensitive clone X2 hijacking the transport carrying the part and destroying the facility with the help of the tributary beam. The commander managed to survive Desolation Station's destruction and was brought before X1, X2's brother who was serving the Empire. The captain tried to explain the failure at Desolation Station before being cut off by A1, who ordered the captain's execution via blaster fire by accompanying stormtroopers.[2]
Personality and traits
Before X1 ordered the captain's execution, the individual tried to make excuses for the failure at Desolation Station.[2]
Equipment
The captain wore the gray uniform[2] of an Imperial Army pilot,[3] complete with a helmet.[2]
