DB-7197

DB-7197 was a human stormtrooper of the First Order. He fought in Captain Phasma's attack on the iron planet Demir, but was fatally wounded. Fellow trooper KM-8713 tried to save DB-7197, but when Phasma's life was threatened by a thermal detonator, she threw the injured trooper onto the explosive, killing him but saving herself.
==History==
DB-7197 served the First Order as a stormtrooper. He went through basic training with fellow trooper KM-8713. Sometime between 24 ABY and 34 ABY, DB-7197 participated in the First Order Army's assault on the planet Demir, serving under Captain Phasma. After DB-7197 received a wound to his chest during the conflict, KM-8713 discovered the fallen trooper. KM-8713 assisted DB-7197 to his feet and offered words of encouragement.
Upon witnessing the two, Phasma instructed KM-8713 to leave DB-7197 behind, then clarified it as an order after KM-8713 protested. Then, a Demirian ambushed the group but was thwarted by KM-8713's blaster fire. The fallen Demirian dropped an active thermal detonator, which prompted Phasma to throw DB-7197's body atop the grenade at the protest of the other two.
