Bragger, a stormtrooper of male Human descent, served the Empire of the Hand as they fought during the New Republic time period. In the year 8 ABY, Bragger took part in an Imperial attack which targeted the planet known as Quethold, where they fought against the combined armies of the Quesoth species and the alien warlord called Nuso Esva. As the battle raged, Bragger was among the stormtrooper squads to land on Quethold, where they confronted a significant number of Quesoth Soldiers within the confines of the Red City. In the midst of the fighting, a Quesoth soldier struck Bragger with a mace, causing him to collapse; however, he was rescued by fellow stormtroopers Lhagva and Shrinks, who opened fire on the Quesoth who had attacked Bragger. After getting back up, Bragger believed that the Quesoth's strike had fractured his arm.
