Hochster

Hochster is a Major with the Remnant Security Bureau who frequently interacts with the Remnant forces stationed in New York City and the Spectres as well as the Jedi Order of Earth. He is known throughout the Remnant for his harsh interrogation methods, screaming at officers including those who outrank him, and ordering places surrounded by a "Ring of Steel" on a whim.
==History==
Hochster first arrived in New York in 2013 after the arrivals of Anakin Skywalker, Padme Skywalker, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. During this visit, he accused General Joseph Rodgers of "blind incompetence" and competed with CIA operative Sam Thompson to find out the truth about the three who he claimed were imposters despite the three knowing details about their lives that were kept private. He also expressed frustration with Michael Myers after Myers vouched for Skywalker and Kenobi being who they said they were.
In 2015, he appeared after it was reported that Kelsey Myers had managed to hack into the CIA Database. During this visit, he eventually set his sights on Jedi Knight Galen Marek referring to Marek by his former codename of "Starkiller" and questioning Marek's loyalties citing Marek's role in the formation of what eventually became the Rebel Alliance. This inquiry went nowhere due to a lack of cooperation from the Myers.
In 2018, Hochster delivered Imperial Security Bureau files from deep storage on Lothal Governor Jai Kell, New Republic General Wedge Antilles, and New Republic Captain Mart Mattin among others in the aftermath of Operation Lothal Freedom although Hochster questioned the accuracy of the information in the files due to the sudden loyalty change of the ISB Agent who had compiled the files Alexsandr Kallus. He also notes to Tevin Felth that his concerns about the accuracy of the information seemed to have been shared by Grand Admiral Thrawn.
In 2020, Hochster appeared after two Remnant Intelligence agents were killed in an attack by a group of local teenagers that had sworn loyalties to the First Order. During this investigation, he flew into multiple rages directed at New York City Police Department Detective Jamal Wilkins and Spectres member Darius Carpenter. He also butted heads with Captain Landon McKnight over the custody of Steven Abernathy and Abernathy's friends who had ambushed Carpenter only to have the tables turned on them by Carpenter revealing that he was Force-Sensitive and now had Mace Windu's Lightsaber. Hochster demanded to know what Carpenter was doing at his crime scenes to the point of screaming into Tevin's ear to no avail as Tevin simply shouted back at Hochster and threatened to have the Major court-martialed, shot, and sent to the .
==Future==
By 2030, Hochster is still a Major, but addresses Darius (now a Jedi Knight and Tevin's son-in-law) with much more respect after being called in by Tevin's daughter Lucy who is now a Major herself in regards to a number of disturbing incidents involving the Carpenters' son Caleb's teacher and principal. Hochster's investigation eventually leads to the replacement of both the teacher and principal.
By this time Hochster's behavior had gotten to the point that Typher Marlion, Marten Rawlkins, and Steven Laramie frequently held conference calls with each other when Hochster was known to be around their offices simply for the purpose of annoying him. Hochster eventually yells at Caleb which earned him a detainment for an overdue psychiatric evaluation by Kelly Felth when she received a report about the incident. He is later referred for a court-martial after another incident where he screamed at Landon McKnight (who by 2030 is holding the rank of Colonel) and demoted to the rank of Captain as a result of being found guilty of insubordination. Tevin Felth later has him reassigned to Russia after another shouting match with Colonel McKnight. Rawlkins also mentions that he suspected Hochster of breaching security at after Hochster had shown up there unannounced and began yelling at Laramie.
At some point, he yelled at a pregnant Lucy and found himself on the receiving end of a from Darius. He also yelled at Eric Schuyler's mother causing Eric's parents to cut off contact with him until Lucy suggested that Eric try to talk to them and inform them that he had been transferred out of the RSB and that Tevin had taken corrective action against Hochster. Hochster also yelled at Caleb at one point which Hondo Ohnaka considered to be low even by his own standards.
By 2032, Hochster has been stripped of his RSB Security Clearances and reassigned to oversee a junkyard after Tevin reads a report from Doctor Ben Loomis detailing the degree of workplace bullying that Hochster had inflicted and the effects it had on Eric.
==Behind the Scenes==
*Hochster is based on the character of Major Wolfgang Hochstetter from the TV Show right down to having Hochstetter's habits of yelling at people and surrounding places with a "Ring of Steel". He is ever referred to as Hochstetter by Noah Rodgers.
*Much like Hochstetter was able to intimidate Colonel Klink, Hochster was able to intimidate Joseph Rodgers. However he was not able to intimidate Tevin Felth when Tevin became Commanding Officer, much like Hochstetter was not able to intimidate General Albert Burkhalter as Burkhalter had Hochstetter arrested on one occasion and promises to personally see to Hochstetter's reassignment to the Russian Front for an act of incompetence on another.
*Like Major Hochstetter, Hochster has both a military uniform (shown above) and a civilian suit and tie with a small Imperial logo pin on the tie with a hat.
