Fassio Ablund was a human from the moon Jedha who acted as an informant for the Galactic Empire, providing information on resistance fighter Saw Gerrera's partisans. He was then declared a criminal by the Empire after getting caught attempting to steal armor from an Imperial trooper's corpse and was forced to hide in Jedha City from both factions.

In 1 BBY, he aided the partisans in ambushing a group of Imperials in Tythoni Square, firing from a balcony until an Imperial tank destroyed the building. Jedha City was destroyed by the Empire's Death Star superweapon soon after.

Biography[]

Fassio Ablund was a human[2] who acted as an informant for the Galactic Empire on his homeworld,[1] the moon Jedha.[3] Seeking protection from the partisan insurgency of resistance fighter Saw Gerrera, Ablund sold the secrets of their movements[2] and activities to the Empire to ensure his own survival. He then fell from grace with the Empire after getting caught attempting to steal armor from the corpse of an Imperial trooper.[3] Declared a criminal,[2] Ablund's protection immediately ceased and, with no allies left, he was forced to keep a low profile in Jedha City while avoiding both groups that he had betrayed.[3]
