Drazin was a stormtrooper corporal assigned to Commander Igar's honor guard by the year 4 ABY. He, alongside the stormtrooper Gamma Squad, accompanied Darth Vader when the Galactic Empire took control of Cloud City in 3 ABY with the goal of capturing Luke Skywalker. There in a back room he shot C-3PO, who inadvertently discovered the Imperial forces, in order to prevent the droid from blowing the cover of him and his teammates; following the standard Imperial procedure of shooting first, and asking questions later. A year later, Drazin was assigned to Tempest Force, and participated in the Battle of Endor.
