Ruwan Tokai

Ruwan Tokai was a Human male technical sergeant of the Galactic Empire who was posted to the Great Temple of the Massassi on Yavin 4 during the Galactic Civil War. A year after the Battle of Yavin in 1 ABY, Sergeant Tokai examined a piece of the DS-1 Orbital Battle Station, a moon-sized Imperial battle station better known as the Death Star. After sending a courier of his to deliver the fragment to a warrant officer for further analysis, Sergeant Tokai was put at risk of court-martial due to the Death Star salvage being above his security clearance. To avoid punitive action, Sergeant Tokai procured from his superior officer a "retroactive authorization" which retroactively granted the sergeant the right to have examined the piece of the massive Imperial battlestation.
