== Biography ==
=== Early life and career ===
Orson Callan Krennic was a human male born in Sativran City on the planet Lexrul in the year 51 BBY. At the age of fifteen, he earned a place in the Galactic Republic's Future Program on Brentaal, wherein he met and befriended fellow student Galen Erso. The two friends had very different personalities, as Erso needed to be pushed into going to social events, while Krennic's nocturnal carousing became legendary among the Futures Program. Nonetheless, Krennic graduated with high honors to the astonishment of his classmates.
The two worked well together, but the older Erso shrank in the shadow of Krennic's personality and charisma. Although Krennic's listed area of excellence was architecture, his counselors noted that Krennic's ability to manipulate and read others was just as effective. After a time in the program, he was offered a position in the Republic Corps of Engineers and joined it, which led to him supervising large onworld and deep space construction projects. This increased influence allowed Krennic to land Erso a visiting professorship at the Institute of Applied Science at the time when Erso had focused on kyber crystal research.

Around 18 BBY, Krennic was called by Tarkin to attend a summit at the Raven's Peakalongside Hurst Romodi, Barton Coburn, and Royce Hemlock on Tarkin's homeworld of Eriadu. After listening to Romodi and Hemlock discuss their projects, Krennic was asked by Tarkin for an update on Stardust which he was happy to oblige too. The facility was then attacked by members of the Partisans as well as Clone Force 99, the latter whom were trying to trace Hemlock, though Tarkin ensured they were safe as the lockdown system was engaged in the meeting room. Nonetheless, the facility was left damaged much to Tarkin's anger.
