While in space, the soulcraft containing the staffer's group of workers was hit with a plasma bomb, a type of explosive weapon. Two Jedi, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, mitigated the effects of the plasma bomb attack and rescued the passengers. After the soulcraft landed safely in the Leverage docking bay, the staffer began to bark orders at the enslaved workers. Jinn and Kenobi approached him, asking to be taken to Pijal's lord regent, Rael Averross. The pair surprised the staffer, causing him to hit his head on the top of an airlock. The staffer readily agreed to the Jedi's request, quickly assigning a protocol droid to take them to the regent. Jinn then asked him to have the enslaved workers looked over by a medical droid, to which he agreed.

However, upon encountering the Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi and realizing they were free individuals, the employee addressed them respectfully. The staffer promptly agreed to help the pair find Pijal's lord regent, Rael Averross, and readily agreed to have the rescued passengers checked over by a medical droid at Jinn's suggestion.
==Equipment==
As an employee of the Czerka Corporation, the staffer had access to a protocol droid, whom he ordered to bring Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to Rael Averross. While in charge of a group of Czerka's enslaved workers, he also had access to medical droids to oversee their care.
==Behind the scenes==
The Czerka staffer appeared in Master & Apprentice, a 2019 novel written by Claudia Gray. While writing Master & Apprentice, Gray sought to use active wording such as "enslaved" rather than referring to someone as a "slave." However, she also indicated that Czerka Corporation was created to represent an evil entity that did not care about objectifying living beings and that its members—including the staffer—would call their workers "slaves" in a derogatory way as part of their character.
