Behind the scenes
This officer appears in the cutscenes of Star Wars: Rebel Assault and informs Vader (who is always depicted in his Meditation chamber) on the progress of the game. Some of the lines exchanged between him and Vader are taken from the movies although in the original dialogues, Vader was in another location and addressed other officers.
The Imperial officer addresses Vader in the following occasions:
- To report that Tantive IV is captured
- To inform Vader that the Death Star plans were not found, but an escape pod was jettisoned without life signs (this dialogue is made with Nahdonnis Praji onboard the Tantive IV in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope)
- To excuse about not finding the Rebels on Hoth, adding that the probe droids would soon locate them. Vader responded that he is not interested in his excuses.
The officer's face is composited from footage of LucasArts artist Sean Turner, superimposed over footage from the original trilogy.[1]
