==Biography==
===Mimban campaign===
Staz was a human male who, by 10 BBY, had achieved the rank of major in the Armed Forces of the Galactic Empire and was in command of the 224th Imperial Armored Division. Staz led the division during the Mimban Campaign against the Mimbanese Liberation Army, who were resisting Imperial advancements.
During the campaign on Mimban, Staz commanded his forces to capture a final ridge in their area in the bloody battle on Mimban.Solo: A Star Wars Story: Meet the Crew After Corporal Han Solo had been blown to the ground by an explosion, Staz helped him recover and informed him that they were almost to their objective. When Solo replied with confusion on where they were headed, Staz stated that they were headed just over the final ridge. As Staz began to proclaim that victory was at hand, he failed to notice a missile inbound from the Mimbanese lines and was promptly blown to bits by it, dying instantly.
===Legacy===
Following his death, Solo was shocked and fell back to a trench, where he witnessed what appeared to be an Imperial officer, who would in actuality be Tobias Beckett with the uniform of a captain, who was on Mimban attempting to steal a Y-45 armored transport hauler for a heist on Vandor. While Beckett was speaking with his crew, Solo joined into the conversation to inform him that Staz had ordered them to go the other way. Beckett responded by telling Solo to go that way and die, in which Solo responded by saying that that's what happened to Staz.
==Personality and traits==

However, his zeal for combat and rallying his troops in the name of the Empire caused him to be neglectful of his surroundings and he thus failed to notice a missile heading straight for him until it was too late to get out of the way.

During intense combat, Staz was able to direct his subordinates and wield a E-10 blaster rifle.
==Equipment==
As an officer of the Galactic Empire, Staz was equipped with an officer's uniform with a type of fitted, waterproof greatcoat and a plastoid chestplate armor piece. He also wore an unarmored cap and used a blaster rifle in combat.
