Ban Papeega

"No, please, Lord Vader! I'll forget everything I've heard!"

- Ban Papeega

Ban Papeega was a parrot-like alien agent working for Darth Vader on Centares after the Battle of Yavin.

Biography


He assisted during the interrogations of Rebel prisoners and was able to extract the name of Luke Skywalker, the pilot who destroyed the first Death Star. Upon learning the name, Vader set out to kill all who had heard it - including Papeega. He escaped the slaughter and tried to hide somewhere in the Museum of the Old Republic. Some Imperial stormtroopers finally tracked him down near the museum's aviary. Vader quickly discovered his hiding place. Trapped, Papeega begged for mercy but was finally killed by the Sith Lord. Afterwards, Vader burned down the whole aviary.

Behind the scenes
The name Papeega is very similar to Polish word papuga, which means parrot. Papeega is a bird-like person, though his specific species is unclear.
