[edit] Biography
When he was assigned to Tatooine in search of missing droids C-3PO and R2-D2, Terrik was in charge of the Desert Sands Zeta Squadron. He ordered and supervised attacks on a Jawa sandcrawler. Following the tracks of sandcrawler, they soon moved to the Lars Homestead, where they found the droids were. His troops captured Owen Lars and Beru Whitesun, and Darth Vader himself ordered them to execute them. They carried out this order and left shortly before Luke Skywalker arrived at the Lars homestead.
Later, Terrik and his men turned up at Docking Bay 94 to engage Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon. There, amid the crossfire, Terrik was shot in the back and killed by one of his own troopers, Davin Felth.
