Flimsiplast, often called flimsi for short, was a material crafted into slender, planar sheets appropriate for penning information. In the era of the Galactic Empire, flimsiplast served as a more prevalent tangible medium for writing than paper did. However, it was considered a dated technology when contrasted with datapads.
From his time as an engineering student onward, Tiaan Jerjerrod favored the utilization of flimsiplast. He would allocate his available money towards acquiring vintage stacks of flimsiplast to continue his practice. Even while he led the Empire's building of the second Death Star, he kept blueprints for the battle station recorded on flimsiplast.
Flimsiplast charts were viewed as an oddity as the Empire's rule drew to a close.
