Biography[]

When he was assigned to Tatooine in search of missing droids C-3PO and R2-D2, Terrik was captain of the Desert Sands Zeta Squadron. He ordered and supervised attacks on a Jawa sandcrawler. Following the tracks of sandcrawler, they soon moved to the Lars homestead. His troops captured Owen Lars and Beru Whitesun Lars, and Darth Vader himself ordered them to be executed. They carried out this order and left shortly before Luke Skywalker arrived at the Lars homestead.

Later, Terrik was contacted by Garindan, a spy working for the Imperials who had tracked C-3PO and R2-D2 to Docking Bay 94. Terrik and his men arrived at Docking Bay 94 and engaged Han Solo outside the Millennium Falcon, but were unsuccessful in preventing his escape with his passengers. Amid the crossfire, Terrik was shot in the back and killed by one of his own troopers, Davin Felth.
