The human Sul Fansord was a member of the Partisans, a group of freedom fighters led by the Onderonian Saw Gerrera who had established themselves in the Catacombs of Cadera on the moon Jedha in order to disrupt the Galactic Empire's kyber crystal mining operations on the moon. In 1 BBY,Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story to 1 BBY. the Partisans planned to ambush an Imperial convoy carrying a shipment of kyber crystals in Jedha City's Tythoni Square. Prior to the attack, the Partisans hid themselves around the square, with Fansord waiting on top of one of the archways leading into the square as a lookout.
After the convoy, which consisted of members of the Imperial Hammers Elite Armor UnitStar Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide—including several stormtroopers on foot and a TX-225 GAVw "Occupier" combat assault tank—entered the square, Fansord signaled the other Partisans on a comlink when the tank reached an inflection point. As the other Partisans prepared to attack, Fansord moved down to ground level and met up with two other human Partisans. When one of the other two gave the signal, the trio started walking out into the square as another Partisan who was stood on a balcony above the square hurled a grenade down in front of the tank.
After the grenade detonated, Fansord and the two Partisans with them revealed the blaster rifles they had hidden under their coats and opened fire on the Imperials while blocking one of the entry points into the square. The trio managed to gun down three stormtroopers in front of them, although one of Fansord's companions was then killed by return fire. Ultimately, the Partisans managed to disable the tank and kill its escort, allowing them to steal the kyber crystals on board before Imperial reinforcements arrived. The city and the catacombs were destroyed shortly afterwards by the Death Star superweapon, killing many of the Partisans.Battlefront II: Inferno Squad
