Adrick Adrick was a male Human , who served in the Ground Forces of the Galactic Empire . Biography . Search for the Jedi holocron . Holding the rank of a captain , Adrick was involved in a large operation with a purpose to obtain the Codex of Tython , an ancient Jedi Holocron discovered by the agent of the Alliance to Restore the Republic . The agent ' s landspeeder crashed in a remote area of Dantooine , and Adrick and his troopers were sent out to capture him . They were able to find the crash site and discovered a cache of Jedi relics hidden nearby , but it was already empty . After a day ' s search , the Imperials were able to located the Rebel agent , who was carrying the Codex . A group of stormtroopers surrounded the Rebel and Adrick demanded the relic from the Rebel , promising to let him go . The Rebel refused and Adrick simply ordered his troops to kill him and take the relic . However , in the ensuing firefight the Rebel received aid from the Jedi Knight Drakka Judarrl , who created an illusion , which distracted the Imperials and allowed the Rebel to escape into the night . Adrick continued to follow the Rebel , who managed to escape the planet and headed for Dathomir . There , Adrick dispatched another squad to ambush him and capture the Codex , but the troopers were all slaughtered by a Dark Jedi Mellichae and his minions . Adrick returned to the Star Destroyer " Blackguard " to report to the Grand Admiral Andal Sait on his progress . Sait wanted the Codex looking for the plans of new weapons , but Adrick developed his own agenda . Understanding the value of the Jedi relics , he stole a fragment of the holocron , which belonged to Andal Sait himself . However , this fragment was in turn taken from him , when the Rebel agent infiltrated the " Blackguard " and ambushed Adrick , which allowed him to complete and finally activate the Codex . Mission to Hoth . Around 2 ABY a small Rebel outpost was discovered on a remote Outer Rim world of Hoth by ISB agents looking for an exiled Nightsister . Adrick , now holding the rank of colonel , was leading the group sent by Maximilian Veers to reinforce the Imperial presence on the planet and wipe out the outpost . He led a strike force consisting of one AT - ST , two AT - PTs and a squad of snowtroopers to the outpost , mistakenly believing that the Nightsister Kyrisa was in there and hoping to capture her . However , their approach was spotted by Rebel scouts , which gave the Rebels time to mount a defense . Adrick ordered his troopers to attack the outpost , but the initial assault was met with heavy blaster fire , forcing them to fall back . Then , the AT - ST arrived at the battlefield and provided cover for the snowtroopers by blazing away at Rebel positions . Eventually , the Alliance managed to cripple the walkers , but the snowtroopers were still putting up a good fight regardless . The battle ended when a blizzard began , engulfing both armies and making it impossible for them to continue . After the storm the Rebels examined the battlefield and found several Imperial bodies and discovered that one of the light AT - PTs was missing , but no signs of the Imperials were found in the nearby area . Behind the scenes . Adrick was created for the " Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game " , where he serves as one of the recurring antagonists in the Light Side scenario campaigns . While the campaign of " The Nightsister ' s Revenge " , told from the Rebel point of view , suggests that all Imperials on Hoth were either killed in the battle or perished in a snowstorm , Chuck Kallenbach , one of the game ' s designer , teased the players with the possibility that Adrick might have survived .
