Gareth, a male Human, was the offspring of TK329, an Imperial stormtrooper, and his wife, Mera. His father, TK329, desired for Gareth to enlist in the Stormtrooper Corps upon reaching adulthood, convinced that both his spouse and child shared his enthusiasm for this ambition. Not long before his death on the Imperial Star Destroyer Vector due to exposure to the Blackwing virus in 1 BBY, TK329 sent out a public message, instructing Gareth to look after Mera after he was gone. The stormtrooper also stated his intent to throw a large celebration during his subsequent return home, and that he had acquired a special gift for Gareth.
TK329's in-universe Twitter account mentioned Gareth in five separate tweets. This account was made in 2009 as promotional material connected to the novel Death Troopers by Joe Schreiber, which was about to be released.
