Lemmet Tauk was a trainee at the Imperial Royal Guard Academy on Yinchorr and a close friend of Kir Kanos.
Biography
Like all other prospective Guardsmen, Lemmet Tauk was already one of the Empire's top soldiers when he was transferred to the Imperial Guard Academy. He excelled among his fellows and was pared with Kir Kanos over the years that the two spent enduring the harsh survival training regimen that killed so many of the other students. In the process, the two of them also developed a very close friendship.
However, as their final test, Palpatine himself had Tauk and Kanos battle to the death. Kanos ran Tauk through with his blade, killing his friend. To Tauk's corpse, Kanos said, "I'm sorry," but was reprimanded by Darth Vader, who slashed Kanos's face with his lightsaber, reminding him that the will of the Emperor was never his to question nor to offer opinion upon.
Behind the scenes
Hasbro released an action feature multipack based on the final test the prospective Guardsmen had to face. Lemmet was included in this pack, and was given a removable helmet, thus showing his face for the first time. He has black hair and a beard.
