FN-3181

FN-3181 was a stormtrooper in the First Order during their conflict with the Resistance. He was one of sixty troopers deployed from the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Finalizer, under the command of Captain Phasma on the planet Jakku as part of an Assault on Tuanul on the village of Tuanul, where they hoped to locate part of a map leading to the Jedi Master Luke Skywalker. The troopers killed or captured the residents of the village, including Lor San Tekka, whose execution by the Force-sensitive Kylo Ren prompted the Resistance pilot Poe Dameron to attack him with a blaster. Using the Force, Ren frozen both the blaster bolt and Dameron, who FN-3181 and another trooper then grabbed. The pair dragged Dameron over to Ren and threw him at the Force-user's feet. Ren then questioned the pilot, before taking him prisoner and ordering the stormtroopers to execute all remaining villagers.
