Lieutenant Alder

Lieutenant Alder, 1st Lord Clabburn was a Rebel officer serving on the ice planet Hoth. When Han Solo went out to search for the missing Commander Luke Starkiller, Alder entered a bet with Major Derlin. Alder bet his lordship of the northwest reaches of the Clabburn Range and a wampa pelt that neither would come back alive, losing it when Solo and Starkiller were both found alive later. 
== The Enemy Let Slip ==
Since the Rebels blew up the Peace Moon, they'd been on the run evacuating several bases with the Imperials suspiciously close on their heels, but managed to stay hidden on the ice world of Hoth for the past two years. One late afternoon on Hoth, Luke was riding a tauntaun while patrolling a sector outside the Rebel base, Han was riding another tauntaun patrolling a different sector, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Princess were in the command centre of the Rebel base, while Chewbacca was in the hangar working on repairs to the Millennium Falcon. 
At the hangar several hours after Luke had failed to report in and Han had gone after him, Princess, Chewbacca, R2, and 3PO were all together along with a couple of Rebel officers, Lieutenant Alder and Major Derlin. Alder bet Derlin Alder's lordship of the northwest reaches of the Claburn range that neither Han nor Luke would make it back alive. Derlin told Alder that was a sucker's bet, but took it when Alder also threw in his wampa pelt. Princess asked them to volunteer to take a hoverplane to go look for Han and Luke. Derlin balked at this because Luke pulled apart Derlin's every possession, interrogated Derlin at length on three separate occasions, and printed fliers with Derlin's face and the question, "Is this the traitor?" Princess said that wasn't personal since Luke did that to everyone.
