"Jam the speeders."
"I can't, sir."
"Why not?"
"They're not using speeders!"
―Enric Pryde and Masir Trach, upon seeing the Resistance's orbak mounts — 20?cb=20250116042720 ▶️ (file info)[2]

Masir Trach was a human who served as a commander and scanner officer in the First Order, and held a rank befitting that of a senior officer.[3] Previously assigned to the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Finalizer, when Trach was transferred to the Steadfast he was caught in the rivalry between General Armitage Hux and Allegiant General Enric Pryde, the commanders of the Finalizer and Steadfast respectively after the Finalizer was crippled during the Battle of Batuu and Supreme Leader Kylo Ren had Hux transferred with him to the Steadfast when the leader of the Knights of Ren took the ship as his new Destroyer to prevent his old rival from starting a mutiny. Although Trach could sense the tension between the two officers and was aware that the orders they gave him carried ulterior political moments, to avoid dispute he chose to focus on carrying out the letter of his orders.[1]

Trach participated in the Battle of Exegol, the final confrontation in the war against the Resistance as part of the Sith Eternal's fleet, the Final Order. During the battle, Trach witnessed a group of Resistance fighters, led by former First Order stormtrooper Finn, launch a ground assault on Exegol riding orbak mounts. He declared his shock that they used animals rather than speeders, preventing their opponents from using technology to disable the vehicles. The Steadfast was ultimately destroyed and the Resistance won the battle.[2]
