Bolvan

"Hold your fire. There's no life forms. It must have short-circuited."

- Bolvan, to Hija

Bolvan was a male human who served as the gunnery captain aboard the Imperial Star Destroyer Devastator in 0 BBY. After the capture of the corvette Tantive IV, he ordered his subordinate Lieutenant Hija not to fire at an escape pod that launched from the captured ship because there were no life signs aboard. After the corvette had been entirely searched, and the Death star plans, which Darth Vader suspected the Rebel ship of carrying, were not found onboard, Bolvan came to suspect that they were hidden aboard the escape pod. In order to avoid getting in trouble for failing to realize this earlier, he asked logistics officer Arvira for her assistance.
