Unidentified Imperial officer (Metalorn)

A Human served as an officer under Imperial Governor Corwyth on the planet Metalorn during the Galactic Civil War. In the year 0 ABY, Princess Leia Organa of the Rebel Alliance infiltrated the factory planet in order to spread the seeds of rebellion among the uninformed worker populace, which had little knowledge of the outside galaxy and its current events.

Ordered to find Organa, the officer used a tracking device implanted in a stolen blaster to track her to an ore processing center. When the conveyor bucket that the tracking device was broadcasting from appeared within the line of sight of the officer's stormtroopers, the officer ordered the stormtroopers to open fire. After the smoke had cleared, they discovered that Organa had escaped, and all that was present in the conveyor bucket was the stolen blaster.
