A technician and officer within the Galactic Empire during the initial period of the Galactic Civil War was a Human male. In 1 ABY, he operated under an unidentified commander on Kashyyyk. Following the Empire's decree for a blockade of the planet, the commander, this technician, along with two stormtroopers, received orders to conduct house searches. They gained entry to the home of the Wookiees Chewbacca, Mallatobuck, Attichitcuk, and Lumpawarrump, and the Imperial group stayed within the residence for a time, looking for evidence of connections to the Rebel Alliance. Saun Dann, a trader who was present, displayed a performance by a musical group to the technician. Later, they received instructions to return to their base.
