Jarad Gastin was a male Sullustan officer of the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, Lieutenant Gastin was stationed on the planet Tatooine and operated out of a tavern in the city of Anchorhead. In this notorious Rebel stronghold, he collected credit contributions from Rebel sympathizers eager to support the war effort. During 1 ABY, Jarad Gastin received a generous donation of one million credits from an unknown spacer.
Jarad Gastin was a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. Major Lt. Jarad Gastin was added to the game with the release of the Game Update 9, on April 30, 2009. He was one of the three NPCs (along with Major Caleb Knolar and Ozzmos Roberts) added with the update that were used as credit sinks to remove money from the game economy and combat inflation. For paying one million credits, the player received the player title "Rebel Sympathizer."
