Thinking about the time I fell into the tech pit and couldnât free myself for the entire day. You see, there were no stairs to leave the tech pit. Grand Moff Tarkin eliminated the stairs after he thought the crew was taking too many caf breaks. Thereafter, the only way to exit the tech pit was through a ladder which appeared at 12 hour intervals throughout the day. At least there was a refresher down there, but there was no caf machine and I was therefore utterly miserable in my confinement.
I attempted to climb out to no avail. I then tried to subtly signal to Lord Vader that I was trapped, thinking he could perhaps lift me up with his terrifying Force magic. Unfortunately, he was occupied speaking with a group of bounty hunters at the time and paid no attention to me. So, I had no choice but to spend the entire day with Lieutenant Venka, who made many passive aggressive remarks over his lack of promotion to captain and bored me to tears talking about porg racing.
I submitted a work order to have a permanent ladder affixed in the tech pit. I also submitted a work order to have the backup shield generator for the bridge installed in the same form. Neither was fixed before the Battle of Endor.

5 Even More Obscure Navy Imperials
This is a very niche post within an already niche part of the fandom but here are some obscure Imperials who are rarely featured even in the Imperial corner of content creators. The nice thing about these guys is that you can use a canon character but also have a huge amount of freedom.
So, without further ado, here are five even more obscure navy imps to feature in your already obscure imp fics.
(Please note that I am treating "canon" as anything from SW official material, including legends, since there's very little Disney canon for a lot of the imperials.)
1. Captain Xamuel Lennox
Canon Appearance: Empire Strikes Back
Role in the Films: Captain Lennox commanded the Imperial Star Destroyer the Tyrant (gotta love those over-the-top evil ISD names...) at the Battle of Hoth which is the first ship to get disabled by the ion cannon. Lennox's only line in the film is "Good. Our first catch of the day." after being notified of the Rebel evacuation transports passing within range.
Other Canon Info: Lennox fought with Piett during the Battle of Turkana in 1 BBY and did not listen to Piett's advice, causing an Imperial retreat. Piett was very critical of Lennox after the battle and recommended he be removed from command of the Pakuuni Sector.
Lennox survives the Battle of Hoth despite his failure but is later killed during the Battle of Endor.
Content Potential: Lennox has the potential to be another Imperial officer who Piett has a bitter history with. Interestingly, in most of the cases Piett is critical of Lennox, Piett then has a similar failure later on in the same mission. So, I'd imagine there's a lot of resentment between the two with Lennox thinking Piett is a hypocrite and Piett potentially blaming Lennox's actions as a contributing factor to his lack of success. I often read and write about Ozzel as an officer who's an antagonistic presence in Piett-centric fanfiction, but Lennox could be another player working against Piett on that side. If not a full-blown antagonist, he probably dislikes Piett enough and vice versa for the two to have some casual co-worker hostility.
2. Lieutenant Venka
Canon Appearance: Empire Strikes Back
Role in Films: Worked in the tech pit on the bridge of the Executor during the Pursuit of the Millennium Falcon. His only speaking role is when he's agreeing with Piett when the Admiral is ranting about Bounty Hunters. He is also the one to deliver the news to Piett from Captain Needa's Star Destroyer, the Avenger, that they have sighted the Falcon (an announcement which, of course, ultimately leads to Needa's death).
Other Canon Info: Venka is literally a nepo baby in canon. He's Coruscanti and comes from a very privileged background. He is annoyed with Piett for not immediately promoting him after Piett himself is promoted by Vader. He was responsible for organizing the boarding party during the Empire's last attempt to catch the Falcon with the tractor beam at Bespin. While none of this was successful, Piett still promotes Venka to Captain after the chase because he's just relieved to have avoided being choked to death. (That last part is literally the explanation the wiki gives for this promotion. So, I guess Piett was just in a good mood about not dying and giving out promotions, at least according to canon.)
Content Potential: I almost hesitate putting Venka in this post because he's actually been featured a couple of times in imperial fanfiction and there is already fanon content for him. I've really enjoyed what I've seen of him so far and I feel like there's a lot of opportunity to explore his interactions with other imps, particularly in the context of a privileged Coruscanti background. For instance, is his family rich enough that they're friends with the Jerjerrods and how does this make Venka feel about Moff Tiaan Jerjerrod? Similarly, do they know Admiral Motti's family who we also know are very wealthy? There's also potential to explore the wealth gap with Piett who we know came from an underprivileged background on an Outer Rim planet. We know from canon that Venka was resentful of Piett's promotion and questioned Piett's worthiness of the rank of Admiral. Whether this is due to regional prejudice or just Venka being petty is up to the content creator to decide.
3. Commander Gherant
Canon Appearance: Return of the Jedi
Role in Films: He's seen with Piett on the Command Bridge of the Executor. He seems to be acting as Piett's second-in-command (not sure how that adds up in terms of the ranks, but SW has never been super consistent about that). Most notably, he's the one who screams "Too late!" right before the A-Wing crashes into the Executor's bridge killing him and Piett.
Other Canon Info: Really none except that the wiki says he's ambitious but also anxious... so in, short, very relatable. I feel they describe every single imperial as ambitious, so take that as what you will.
Content Potential: From what I've seen and written, Gherant is mainly featured in angst fics surrounding the Battle of Endor or Piett Lives AUs. He definitely has a logical role there but it'd be neat to see him appear pre-Endor in Imperial fics. And Commander Gherant is one of those who is really open to interpretation because we have so little info about him in either Disney canon or legends.
4. Commander Nemet
Canon Appearance: Empire Strikes Back
Role in Films: Nemet works in Captain Lorth Needa's crew during the Pursuit of the Falcon on board the Avenger. He's in charge of operating the scopes and therefore the first to report to Needa that they've lost the ship when Han hides in the blind spot.
Other Canon Info: Not much beyond what we see in the films. Another very ambitious but also very scared imperial, per the wiki.
Content Potential: On the angst side, I think it would be interesting to see Nemet's reaction to Needa's death especially since he's arguably the one who would feel guilty about it, albeit due to an honest mistake. On a brighter side, Nemet is also really free real estate since we've got so little on him so you can basically feature him however you want.
5. Lieutenant Virar Needa
Canon Appearance: Not in the Films, featured in a book from the legends, X-Wing: Wedge's Gamble.
Role in Canon: Virar Needa is the cousin of Captain Lorth Needa. After Vader kills Lorth, he subsequently has the rest of the Needa family executed to intimidate the other Imperials. Virar is the only one who survives this purge but he's demoted to serve on an orbiting satellite around Coruscant, a job that is viewed by many in the Imperial military as demeaning.
Personality wise, we know that Virar was still very enthusiastic about his job and loyal to the Imperial cause. We also know that he apparently misses social cues and takes joking comments seriously.
Content Potential: I personally find Virar's story sympathetic. He's trying to keep his spirits up after a massive personal tragedy while also facing the end of the war and the destruction of the military alliance he's sworn his life to. Similarly to Lorth Needa, I think there's a lot of potential to create a sympathetic Imperial character and build on the contrast of someone being a decent person on a personal level but working for a sinister organization. Besides that, Virar is a good character to feature if you want a tie in to one of the more mainstream Imperials without having cameo overload with too many mainstream imps in the same place at the same time.

AO3 First Lines Tag Game
tagged in by the wonderful @musewrangler again!
Rules: Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, donât be shy and share anyway.
Uh, so I'm also going to interpret this as published and unpublished so, I'll start with the two unpublished first.
1-Veers Crew Shenanigans Part Three
A draft of new rules to add to the Executorâs unofficial list, as drafted by Colonel Piett and Captain Venka:
33) General Veersâs subordinates are not allowed to get the general drunk in order to get him to agree to things he normally wouldnât.
34) The following reasons are also not reasons to do something:Â
     34a) to shut up the doubters
     34b) to prove the superiority of the Imperial Army
     34c) to provide the navy with remedial lessons on tactics used by the Thundering Herd in battle
2-I Knew You Through Land And Sea Part Three
âAlright people, listen up! Yale, give Winsa her helmet back. Admiral Ozzel dropped out too close to the rebel base on Hoth, so weâre up,â Veers says, strapping himself into his seat in the Comet. He holds out a palm projector. âWeâre going to be dropped by the power generator for their planetary shield. Our first objective is to take it out. Second is to handle their ion cannon so the TIEs and AT-ATs can make a safer descent. Are there any questions about the objectives?â
3-Heterotaxy and Dextrocardia
âSimon?â
But even before the name of his friend, companion, patron, and benefactor dissipated into awful, ominous nothingness in the silence of the house, James Asher knew something was horribly wrong.
The house was silent. That did not mean it was empty.
4-Luck's A Classy Lady (But She Has A Bad Side Too)
In every universe a Piett and a Veers meet a Skywalker, they have to learn to contend with shenanigans that they get drawn into by association.
But in some universes, the Skywalker Luck is more potent than it is in others.
This happens to be one of them.
5-The Two Feuding Kinsman
In most universes, the first thing does after being freed from the basement of Fawney Rig is recover his tools. He does not realize that Desire is the one responsible for his predicament until after the Vortex Debacle.
But this universe, this one is a little different.
Because in this one, Desire canât help but gloat while their older brother lay curled at the bottom of the glass globe.
(They blame it on him, saying that theyâre trying to teach him a lesson.)
(Dream hadnât realized they hated him this much.)
(And then Jessamy happens and all Dream can think about is how to get even.)
So when Dream gets out this time, he heads straight to the Threshold to confront Desire.
6-Hold Your Silver Tongue (And Build An Honest Bridge)
In most universes, the Imperial Military absorbs the GAR and leaves individual planetary forces intact. Veers, in one of the non-clone regiments of the GAR, is folded in immediately.
Piett, of the anti-pirate fleet, is conscripted into the navy six years later.
At least, in that one.
In another, Tarkin makes a suggestion.
(All planetary forces are dissolved and reabsorbed into the Imperial Military.)
(Lieutenant Firmus Piett becomes a comms officer on the Strikefast.)
7-I Am A Banked Coal (But I Ignite The Firestorm)
Maximilian Veers did not request a transfer into Death Squadron. He is still transferred in.
(Darth Vader hears the name Maximilian Veers again for the first time in years, the Major having gotten orders assigning him to Tarkinâs monstrosity. And no. The Death Star canât have him.)
(Veers is Torrent and Torrent is Vaderâs.)
8-Conscience Doth Make Destitute Cowards of Us All
In many universes, Alexander Burgess swears that he will come down to the basement no more.
In this world, his last words to Dream are very different.
(And as more decades drag on with him trapped, Dreamâs power dwindles even further.)
(His sense of self goes with it.)
9-Much Ado About Giving Aid
In most universes, two old gods attack the Dreaming toward the beginning of the universe. Dream asks his siblings for help and only Desire answers, by sending Alinora.
(She breaks his heart eventually and he becomes that much more wary of love.)
In this universe, not even Desire sends aid.
The old gods shred the Dreaming.
(Except the Dreaming is a manifestation of Dreamâs mind.)
(Dreamâs howls of agony echo through the cosmos.)
(By the time his siblings change their minds it is too late.)
10-Do You Hear The People Sing? (Singing The Song of Disillusioned Men)
Despair cannot look her older brother in the face and he does not seem to expect her to. He never has her look into his broken mirror as he had Desire do either.
âWhy?â She asks him once.âWhy do you not hate me?â
âBecause what happened to me was not your idea,â Disillusionment says. âYou did not come up with plan after plan to torture a family member. That was Desire. You merely⊠went along with it.â
I... had not realized how much Sandman fic I'd written recently. Huh.
Anyway, gently tagging @alexx-dax and @chaosgoblinhours if they want to give it a go.

Conversation
Captain Piett: Veers is planetside. I'm going to shoot a blaster at Lord Vader the next time he's mad.
Lieutenant Venka: But why, sir?
Captain Piett: I don't know, Veers is about 80% of my impulse control.
