Aggadeen Aggadeen was a male human who served as an officer in the Galactic Empire . Shortly after the Battle of Yavin , he acted as the Imperial Overseer to Weapons Factory Alpha on Cymoon 1 . Biography . Rebel assault . A few weeks after the Battle of Yavin , Aggadeen was stationed at Weapons Factory Alpha on the moon Cymoon 1 , in the Corellian Industrial Cluster . An envoy was sent from the Outer Rim planet Tatooine . The envoy was employed by the crime lord Jabba the Hutt , and was to negotiate terms of shipping raw materials from Hutt controlled space to Imperial factories , to produce more Imperial war machines — such as TIE / ln space superiority starfighter s and All Terrain Armored Transport walker s . Aggadeen and a squad of stormtrooper s awaited the shuttle that carried the Outer Rim envoy on one of the factory ' s landing platforms . The Overseer ordered the stormtrooper s to kill the members of the envoy if they felt in any way suspicious . Three human s and an astromech droid emerged , and Aggadeen greeted them in the name of Emperor Palpatine and asked who he had the honor of addressing . The clear leader of the group called himself the official emissary of Jabba the Great , Mightiest of all Hutts , but his name was Han — Han Solo . The pair shook hands as Solo dubbed the Overseer " Aggie . " The Imperials ' LOM - series protocol droid confirmed Solo ' s identity , and Aggadeen invited them into the factory — after they had left their weapons outside . The two parties walked through the factory where Solo and " Aggie " conversed about the imminent negotiations . Solo told him that they should be prepared for the negotiations to be vigorous , but Aggadeen revealed to the small time smuggler that there would be no negotiations . The negotiator would state the Empire ' s demands and they would be accepted by the Hutt ' s envoy — the Empire was huge , they had no time to negotiate with criminals or anyone who could possibly slow down the Empire . Solo was unimpressed and reminded " Aggie " that negotiating with criminals from the Outer Rim was not the Empire ' s style . The Death Star battle station undoubtedly cost billions of credit s to build — many years to construct , had been destroyed , running the Empire ' s resources dry . They soon arrived at the room where the negotiations were to be held , Aggadeen invited them inside to await the negotiator . But Solo professed to hold the negotiations on the noisy factory floor . Aggadeen questioned Solo ' s sanity and asked why . Solo smoothly replied that " Aggie " had said it earlier , " We aren ' t here to negotiate . " Solo ' s astromech droid began leaking fluids onto the floor — the droid then electrocuted the liquid ; and the stormtroopers who now found themselves standing in it . Solo and his " bodyguard s " defeated the remaining stormtroopers in hand - to - hand combat . Aggadeen had decided that Solo truly was insane and asked " What kind of envoy are you ? " Solo replied " The Rebellious kind . " and asked " Aggie " the direction to the main power core . Aggadeen refused to tell them , Weapons Factory Alpha was the most heavily guarded base in the galaxy . Solo ignored him and repeated his question ; the proud Imperial officer refused to cooperate — until the astromech droid threatened to electrocute him as well . " Aggie " pointed them in the right direction and was thanked by the female bodyguard with right hook across his jaw . The Rebels moved on and rigged the power core to explode as the negotiator , Darth Vader , arrived and was alerted to the Rebel ' s presence when he was attacked by a sniper . Vader put the entire moon on alert . The rebels freed several slaves and commandeered an AT - AT walker . They used the walker to wreak havoc in their escape of the factory that was now a bomb . Aggadeen and other Imperials attempted to halt the power core ' s meltdown — but the Rebels had done their work well — the meltdown could not be stopped . Aggadeen contacted Lord Vader and requested permission to evacuate the facility . Vader vetoed his request and told him " If this factory explodes , you had best explode with it . " Aggadeen obeyed and was again cautioned by Vader that further failure would not be tolerated and that the Rebel invaders had to die . Vader did not want Luke Skywalker dead , however , as the Sith Lord had other plans for him . The price of failure . After the assault ended , Vader returned to the Imperial Palace on Coruscant , the capital of the Empire . He brought Aggadeen to the Palace with him , where the Dark Lord had the Overseer torture d as a consequence for the assault on Cymoon 1 . Vader wanted to make sure Aggadeen was not withholding any more information on the Rebel attack that he could possibly use to find Skywalker . Vader brought Emperor Palpatine before the Overseer , and Vader told his master that Aggadeen would never fail the Empire again .
