Imperial Death Troopers
The elite soldiers of Imperial Intelligence, death troopers are encased in specialized stormtrooper armor with a dark, ominous gleam. These soldiers serve as bodyguards and enforcers for Director Krennic, a highly placed officer within the Advanced Weapons Research division of the Empire. Even after the fall of the Empire, officials like Moff Gideon retain a retinue of death troopers.
History
THE DARK TIMES
When Grand Admiral Thrawn closed in on Agent Kallus, a secret rebel informant, he called on a squad of death troopers to accompany him. While Thrawn handled Kallus himself, the towering death troopers kept the traitor under control following the confrontation. During the later attack on Atollon, Thrawn’s death troopers were on the front lines in the invasion of the rebel base.
