A deck officer, a male human, served as a lieutenant in a Galactic Empire remnant under the command of Moff Gideon. He was stationed on a Gozanti-class Assault Carrier. In 9 ABY, this vessel was attacked above the moon Trask by a quartet of Mandalorians. Tasked with defending the cargo bay, the deck officer instead directed his stormtroopers to isolate the Mandalorians within the cargo control zone. After relaying this information to his captain, the opening of the cargo bay doors by the attackers resulted in the officer being ejected from the Gozanti.
During the New Republic era, this deck officer was a member of Moff Gideon's Galactic Empire remnant. As a lieutenant, he was assigned to a Gozanti-class Assault Carrier in 9 ABY. While departing the estuary moon of Trask, the starship under his command was boarded by four Mandalorians: Bo-Katan Kryze, Din Djarin, Koska Reeves, and Axe Woves. A group of stormtroopers gathered in the cargo bay where the deck officer was stationed. The officer used his comlink to inquire with the bridge about the situation. The security officer informed him that the Mandalorians were approaching, and the captain ordered him to delay the intruders until the ship could enter hyperspace.
Brandishing his SE-14r light repeating blaster, the deck officer communicated the captain's orders to his stormtroopers, who aimed at the expected entry point of the Mandalorians: a lift at the end of the corridor leading from the cargo bay. When the lift doors opened, the Mandalorians engaged the officer's troopers, quickly eliminating several. After firing a few shots, the deck officer sought cover and ordered the closure of all doors in the hallway to the cargo bay. When a stormtrooper questioned which door, the officer commanded, "all of them."
Following the stormtrooper's closure of the door behind the Mandalorians, the deck officer reiterated the order to close all doors. The intruders were then confined to the cargo control area adjacent to the cargo bay, a fact the officer reported to the captain. Subsequently, the Mandalorians utilized the control area to open the cargo bay doors, resulting in the deck officer and his stormtroopers being expelled from the Gozanti-class Assault Carrier and falling towards Trask. The security officer attempted to contact the cargo bay, but only received a response from Kryze, who had acquired the deck officer's comlink.
This human male had light skin, blue [eyes](/article/eye], and white [hair](/article/hair]. Tasked with delaying the attackers to allow the Gozanti-class Assault Carrier to jump to hyperspace, the officer confidently relayed the orders to his troopers, standing openly with his blaster raised. However, when his troopers engaged the Mandalorians, he quickly hid behind a terminal, fearfully ordering a stormtrooper to seal off their opponents. The officer was unaware of the capabilities the Mandalorians possessed in the cargo control area until they used it to eject him and his men from the Gozanti-class Assault Carrier.
The deck officer wore the standard uniform of an Imperial naval officer, including an Imperial kepi and a code cylinder below his left shoulder. On his left breast, he displayed a rank insignia plaque with two red bars over two blue, indicating the rank of lieutenant. He carried an SE-14r light repeating blaster in a holster, which he briefly used against the attacking Mandalorians. Additionally, he communicated with the bridge of his Gozanti-class Assault Cruiser via a comlink.
The deck officer appeared in "Chapter 11: The Heiress" of The Mandalorian, a Disney+ television series from 2019 created by Jon Favreau. The episode was directed by Bryce Dallas Howard and released on November 13, 2020. Credited as "Deck Officer," he was portrayed by Kevin Dorff.
