CHARACTER DESCRIPTION
Sentenced to hard labor on Narkina 5 by the Empire, prisoners work daily assembling components for Imperial works. Prisoners like Cassian Andor never belonged in Narkina 5 in the first place. The Empire maintains control of the prison by electrifying the floors whenever there is the slightest disorder or a lack of productivity. When the opportunity presents itself the prisoners organize a large-scale breakout, escaping and leaving behind the Imperial prison. Star Wars Databank
