- ―Lieutenant Pyparr
Pyparr was a human male officer who served in the Imperial Navy during the Galactic Civil War, a pan-galactic conflict between the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the Galactic Empire.

Behind the scenes[]
In Jason Fry's novel The Weapon of a Jedi: A Luke Skywalker Adventure, the commander of the Kreuge's Revenge is briefly heard, but never seen named, or described.[1] For the first part of the novel's comic book adaptation, Star Wars: The Weapon of a Jedi, writer Alec Worley expanded on the otherwise nondescript character, because he needed a slightly more prominent villain.[3] Pyparr was named after the comics artist, comics letterer and graphic designer Simon "Pye" Parr.[4]
