Commander Pyre

Description: Stormtrooper Commander, Star Wars Resistance
Prefix: TK
Detachment: First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment
Context: Star Wars Resistance

Pyre was a cunning, tactical commander of the First order. Rising up through the ranks, he became Phasma’s right hand man, distinguishing himself from other Stormtroopers with his Electrum plated gold armor, F11-D blaster, and dark pauldron. Pyre divisively gained control of the Colossus station on Castilon and defended it against resistance attacks until his eventual forced retreat to his Star Destroyer.
