- "I've located the Resistance fugitives. All units, report…"
- ―FN-2802 is killed while trying to report his discovery
FN-2802 was the designation of a[2] human[3] who served as a stormtrooper in the First Order's[2] FN Corps[5] during the war against the Resistance.[2] In 35 ABY,[1] FN-2802 was in the Forbidden Valley on the planet Pasaana during the Festival of the Ancestors. After Supreme Leader Kylo Ren had the First Order forces on the planet alerted to the presence of the Jedi Rey and her allies, FN-2802 spotted the group as they attempted to make their way through the crowded festival back to their starship, the Millennium Falcon.[2]

FN-2802 was killed by Landonis Calrissian.
The stormtrooper aimed[2] his[4] blaster and ordered the group to stop, which they did. As FN-2802 attempted to report his discovery of the enemy over comms[2] to his squad,[6] he was killed by local hermit Landonis Calrissian, who fired a single bolt from his prod pistol straight through the eye of the stormtrooper's helmet. As the surrounding festival goers reacted in shock and horror to FN-2802's death, Calrissian led Rey and her allies away to safety.[2]
Equipment[]
FN-2802 wore First Order stormtrooper armor with the web gear[2] of a Megablaster heavy assault trooper,[7] but only carried a F-11D blaster rifle at the time of his death.[2] He used a comlink when contacting his squad.[6]
