Eugene Talmont

"[He] seems to spend most of his time trying to get himself reassigned, ignoring the blatant crime in the streets of Mos Eisley."

- Mammon Hoole

Eugene Talmont was the Imperial Prefect of Mos Eisley spaceport.

Biography
Conceited and arrogant, like most young Imperial officers, Talmont thought it an offense to be assigned to such a forgotten, backwater planet like Tatooine, and so tasked himself with bringing down Jabba Desilijic Tiure's criminal empire in hopes of promotion and a post where he could really "prove his abilities" and "exercise his full potential."

On one of Han Solo's attempts to repay Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine a few weeks after the Battle of Yavin, Talmont hired three bounty hunters to capture Solo alive. After helping the Rebels destroy the dreaded Death Star battlestation, Solo became wanted by the Empire. Talmont hoped that if he were to turn in Solo, he'd be promoted and shuttled off the desolate sand world. However, despite the combined efforts of the three hunters—Dengar, a Kubaz named Udin, and a mysterious red-haired woman named Eron Stonefield—Han managed to escape. His plan backfired, and Talmont was probably thus sentenced to an even longer stay on Tatooine.

A few months following the Battle of Yavin, Talmont filed a report for the Imperial Security Bureau regarding the threat of the Hutt kajidics.

Talmont had made a deal with Tessek, Jabba's Quarren accountant, and Ree-Yees, an alcoholic murderer from Kinyen.
