Renz

Lieutenant Renz was a human male who was one of the commanders of the garrison that defended the Galactic Empire's shield generator bunker on the moon of Endor. In 4 ABY, the Alliance to Restore the Republic sent a strike team to disable the shield generator so that they could destroy the Death Star II superweapon that the shield protected. The team successfully gained entry to the bunker and captured Renz's superior, Major Hewex, but Renz and a group of stormtroopers then forced them to surrender.

After the rebels were escorted outside, an army of native Ewoks attacked the Imperial forces at the bunker, causing the structure's doors to be sealed close. Renz and Hewex, who were inside the sealed bunker, were later contacted by the rebel Han Solo, who was disguised as an Imperial. Solo fooled the Imperial officers into believing that the rebels had been defeated, so Hewex sent Renz to open the bunker's back door. The rebels then managed to enter the bunker and destroy it, allowing for the destruction of the Death Star.
