- "Fire."
- ―Tiaan Jerjerrod giving the trooper orders to fire the Death Star II's superlaser
A Human male Death Star trooper served inside the control room of the second Death Star during the early stages of the Battle of Endor.
History
In 4 ABY this trooper was stationed in the Death Star II's control room at the superlaser's firing station during the Battle of Endor. When Emperor Palpatine gave the battle station's commander, Tiaan Jerjerrod orders to fire the superlaser at will, Superlaser Fire Control began targeting Rebel ships such as the Liberty, the Urjani, and an MC80 Home One type Star Cruiser. When the superlaser was fully charged, Jerjerrod would give the order to fire, and the trooper would pull a switch, firing the superlaser.[1]
Eventually, he was replaced by Sergeant Jad Bean, midway through the battle.[1]
Equipment
The trooper wore the standard Imperial Navy Trooper Uniform for Imperial Navy troopers.[1]
