Unidentified petty officer (Carrion Spike)

"Chief, Ensign Baz is relieved of duty. See to it that he is escorted to the crew berth and confined to quarters for the remainder of the voyage. I will decide his fate once we reach Coruscant." "Yes, sir."

- Tarkin gives orders to the officer

A Human female served the Galactic Empire as a chief petty officer during the early years of its reign. Five years after the Empire's establishment, she served onboard the Carrion Spike, the personal ship of Governor Wilhuff Tarkin, during a journey from the Imperial construction project Sentinel Base to the planet Coruscant. Once the ship entered hyperspace, Tarkin carried out an impromptu inspection of the crew and deduced that one crew member, Ensign Baz, was a spice user. The Governor then commanded the officer to confine Baz to his quarters for the remaineder of the flight and contact Commander Cassel on Sentinel Base to inform him that spice use had become a problem on the base and an inspection should be made to confiscate the illicit material. She wore a standard Imperial officer's uniform.

Behind the scenes
The officer first appeared, but was not named, in Tarkin, a novel written by James Luceno and released in 2014.
