Capture of Rowan Freemaker

Canon Linked from 5 articles

In 4 ABY, Rowan Freemaker was captured by Darth Vader. After the Freemakers completed the quest to build the Arrowhead starship, the Rebel Alliance used the ship to inflict damage on Imperial forces.

In response, the Emperor Palpatine tasked Darth Vader and the Imperial hunter droid M-OC with hunting down and capturing Rowan. M-OC managed to lure Rowan into a trap on the planet Qalydon. However, M-OC's victory was stolen by Darth Vader, who disintegrated the hunter droid and took Rowan to the Emperor.
