Pieterson, Cris
this young Imperial officer was the tractor beam controller aboard the Chimaera, during the reign of Grand Admiral Thrawn. Some five years after the Battle of Endor, he was at the controls when the Chimaera intercepted Luke Skywalker's X-Wing fighter. Pieterson was able to lock onto the small ship, but lost control of it when Luke managed to stop suddenly and fire a pair of proton torpedoes into the beam. His commanding officer, Ensign Colclazure, explained to Thrawn that Pieterson's training hadn't taken the manevuer into account. To show his displeasure with Colclazure's laxity in training, Thrawn had his bodyguard, Rukh, execute Pieterson on the spot.
