Description: Lieutenant Supervisor Lonni Jung was a human male who served as an officer in the Imperial Security Bureau and as a mole for Luthen Rael's rebel network. In 5 BBY, he was a member of a board of supervisors that handled operations such as the Imperial response to the Aldhani heist, the hunt for the rebel person-of-interest Cassian Andor, and the events leading up to the Spellhaus attack. Prior to the Spellhaus attack, a rebel mission that the Empire had acquired knowledge of and in response, set up a trap, Jung summoned Rael to a secret meeting to alert him of the Empire's plan. While Jung also requested that he leave the ISB in order to live his life with his wife and daughter, Rael declined, saying Jung was too important. Rael decided to allow the rebel attackers to walk into the trap rather than call off the mission and alert the Empire of a potential inside man.
Jung continued to serve the ISB for the next several years, investigating the ISB Supervisor Dedra Meero in particular, given her desire to locate Rael after she began to connect parts of his rebel operations. When Meero was reassigned from hunting Rael to the Ghorman project, Jung attempted to learn more about the secret assignment and fed Rael information that he learned about it. In 1 BBY, Jung used Meero's stolen access codes to view classified Imperial files and learned that the Empire's Energy Initiative was a front for the secret development of a superweapon. Also learning that the ISB were close to discovering Rael, Jung met with Rael to communicate the intel and urged Rael to help him and his family escape, as the Empire would soon learn of his intrusion into the files. Rael instead killed Jung and passed the information to his assistant Kleya Marki, who, even after Rael died after being found out by the ISB, was able to bring the intelligence to the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Biography
Cultivating two lives
During the reign of the Galactic Empire, Lonni Jung joined the ranks of the Empire, coming to be a part of the Empire's Imperial Security Bureau (ISB) in 11 BBY. Along the way, he began working with the rebel spy Luthen Rael, who coordinated a shadowy anti-Imperial network. Jung became a part of the network, making a vow, but only communicating with Rael. While Jung fed the rebel spy information from his work in the ISB, Rael allowed him information that he used to boost his career. The supervisor once visited Rael's shop, the Galactic Antiquities and Objects of Interest, where the spy was publicly a dealer of artifacts but also ran his network out the back of the shop. There publicly to find something for his wife, Jung spoke to Rael's assistant, Kleya Marki.
Jung made his way up the Bureau, reaching the position of ISB Supervisor and the rank of lieutenant by 5 BBY. Sectors that came under his jurisdiction included the Abrion sector and the Bright Jewel sector. Jung eventually married a woman from a family with an import business. They had a daughter between 6 and 5 BBY, making Jung a father. The new responsibility made him begin reconsidering his connections with Rael, who he had last met with in 6 BBY.
Bureaucratic discussions
In 5 BBY, Jung served within the Investigations branch of the ISB as part of a board of supervisors chaired by Major Lio Partagaz. The ISB board met in a conference room in the ISB Central Office on the Imperial capital planet of Coruscant. During one board meeting, Partagaz, frustrated with Supervisor Lagret's slow developments regarding a conflict, addressed the room at large, explaining that the ISB's purpose was to cure the "sickness" of disorder within the Empire by first being able to identify it quickly.
Partagaz then reassigned Lagret's unfinished memorandum, causing the supervisor to turn in dismay to Jung, who was sat to the right of his colleague. The major soon asked Jung to elaborate on requests that had been made for additional protection for traffic to the Abrion sector. Jung explained that the requests were a proactive measure due to an increase in construction shipments going to Scarif, a planet located in the sector where the DS-1 Death Star Mobile Battle Station was undergoing construction in secret.
Political developments
Not long after, an infiltration team formed by Rael successfully stole around 80 million credits from an Imperial sector payroll stored at an installation on the planet Aldhani. Jung, the rest of the ISB board, and many ISB Attendants were summoned back to the conference room. There, Partagaz advised them that they should tell their staff and families that they were not going home, and added that he wanted every Star Sector and Planetary Emergency Retaliation plan in the building to be ready for presentation by midnight. Afterward, an ISB board meeting was held by the bureau's director, Colonel Wullf Yularen, in which the Colonel, having spoken with Emperor Palpatine the night before, briefed the supervisors on the new security legislation being introduced as a result of the Aldhani incident.
In a later ISB board meeting, Jung provided three theories to Partagaz explaining why he failed to keep pace with his neighboring sectors. After requesting guidance from Partagaz, the latter demanded a complete audit of hyperspace routes leading to the planet Ord Mantell by the same time the next day. As the meeting continued, Jung watched Supervisor Dedra Meero pitch her suspicions that there was an organized rebel effort to acquire Imperial military components, an effort which was in reality Rael's network. At the end of the meeting, Partagaz reminded Jung about the report on Ord Mantell. In a following board meeting Jung was present at, Meero presented her thesis regarding a rebel effort specializing in the theft of Imperial equipment to Yularen himself.
Pursuit of rebels
Meero continued her investigations on the supposed rebel network through an incident on the planet Ferrix, marking a thief named Cassian Andor as a crucial link to a buyer that she believed to be at the center of the network. The buyer, who was in fact Rael, was labeled as "Axis." Meero expanded on her work against the rebel effort at another ISB board meeting, where Jung noted that Andor was mentioned throughout the document. Meero suggested a link between Andor and the Aldhani heist, noting that the thief had since returned to Ferrix with money; Lagret questioned whether it was from the sale of a stolen Imperial N-S9 Starpath Unit, but Jung chimed in that the Starpath had left behind on Ferrix during the incident. Heert, one of Meero's ISB Attendants, clarified the links between Andor's appearance and the rebels on Aldhani, Partagaz wishing for that to be followed up.
Soon after, Jung arrived from off-site to another meeting with Partagaz, Meero, and Lagret, accompanied by an attendant. The supervisor was updated that a rebel pilot associated with the neo-Separatist Anto Kreegyr had been captured and had revealed that a raid was planned on the Imperial power station on Spellhaus. After confirming that the pilot had been heading to Kafrene, Jung added that Kreegyr's group would count the pilot missing before long. He countered Lagret's suggestion of destroying the ship, predicting that Kreegyr would be suspicious from that. Meero then suggested fouling the ship and staging an accident, Jung saying that it would have to be towed to Kafrene. Partagaz approved of Meero's idea and ordered Jung and Lagret to arrange a meeting with Military Intelligence about Spellhaus.
With the accident set up, Jung, Meero, and Lagret observed the fouled ship get reported and towed by Kafrene Rescue Salvage. Partagaz soon joined them, being updated by the trio. When the major concluded that they would hang back and wait, Jung suggested that the ISB investigate as they would do normally, under the assumption that Kreegyr would be watching. Partagaz agreed with the supervisor's suggestion.
Sacrifices
Soon after the ISB's plan went into motion, Jung sought to make contact with Rael for the first time in a year, wishing to pass on information on Meero's investigations and the pending trap Kreegyr's forces would be entering as well as negotiate leaving the rebel network. The supervisor left a mark on a fountain and broke a stair rail off clean as a signal to the rebel spy for a face-to-face meeting. Marki saw the signs and informed Rael, believing it was a trap. Rael nonetheless decided to go forward with the meeting.
Jung made his way through some lower level Coruscant streets to the meeting point, disguised with a cloak. Entering a turbolift, Jung retrieved an earpiece with Rael on the other side, which instructed him to press a combination of buttons if the meeting was a trap. Assuring their privacy, Rael congratulated the supervisor on his new daughter. Jung was uneasy at that, replying that it was unfair for the rebel spy to be watching over his life. After Rael asked what he was there for, Jung explained Meero's efforts against the "Axis network," including her investigations into Ferrix and the possible link with the Aldhani heist. Rael called it a good thing and advised the supervisor to encourage Meero's search, claiming he had at most been invited to the Aldhani mission.
Rael asked what Jung was really there for, and the latter revealed that the ISB knew of Kreegyr's plans for Spellhaus, urging the spy to have the plans called off. However, Rael argued that preserving the secrecy of his mole was more valuable than the "fifty men" that made up Kreegyr's fighting strength. The lift arrived to bring Jung and Rael face to face at a long catwalk. Rael asked again what the meeting was really for, and the supervisor announced that he wanted to leave both the network and the ISB to prioritise his family, hoping the information he had just provided would be a parting gift.
Rael assured Jung that leaving would be impossible and that he was too valuable, and remarked how much his ISB career had benefited from information the spy had sacrificed. The supervisor questioned whether his sacrifices for Real meant nothing, the latter going on to praise it. Jung then asked what the rebel spy sacrificed. Rael explained how he had given up all inner peace, condemned himself to use the tools of his enemy to defeat them, burned his life away for a sunrise he will never see, all for no gratitude. Proclaiming that he was sacrificing everything, the spy told Jung that he needed all the heroes he could get, before closing the lift doors again to dismiss him.
Kreegyr's fall
With the information given by Jung, Rael stopped the rebel leader Saw Gerrera from joining Kreegyr's attack with his own cell, the Partisans, revealing that the ISB was setting a trap. While Gerrera was displeased that the rebel spy was letting Kreegyr walk into a trap, Rael convinced him that it was more ideal to play the long game and protect his source, Jung.
The next day, Jung, Partagaz, and many other ISB staffers watched the Kreegyr attack play out from the conference room. They witnessed as the rebels walked straight into the trap and were wiped out. While Meero called in to complain about the lack of prisoners, Lagret collected ISB Supervisor Blevin to see the occasion. Jung answered some of Blevin's immediate queries, stating that they were still counting the bodies and that no prisoners were taken. After Lagret brought up Meero's dismay, Jung added that she was being talked down by Partagaz as they spoke.
Workplace drama
In 3 BBY, Jung was present at an ISB board meeting in which Lagret reported on a number of successful raids, arrests, and seizures of weapons and credits. Meero's former attendant Heert, now a supervisor on the board, was led to chime in with how he had connected some of the weapons to Axis. However, these reports were met with Partagaz criticism on how inefficient they had been to process the suspects and data. Lagret claimed there were a variety of causes for this, and after Partagaz asked for one to be picked, Jung spoke up and claimed they were arresting too many people. The supervisor went on to clarify that some of them had more people in custody than they could process.
Partagaz agreed with Jung and said that he had a meeting scheduled with Yularen and the Emperor about the intake rates. The major then thanked Jung for reminding the room how it was meant to function before dismissing the meeting. As the attendees began leaving, Lagret thanked Jung for his point in the argument. Jung revealed that he was having the same problems keeping up with intake rates and suggested that they talk it over. Lagret stated that he was in all day, before the two departed the conference room.
Jung spoke with another supervisor outside the conference room before he approached Heert, who's conversation with Meero storming away. After Jung remarked about Meero's unhappiness, Heert briefly complained about it before thanking his colleague for saving him from Partagaz's wrath and asked how he could repay him. Jung said that he could buy him lunch, which Heert agreed to. At lunch, Jung learned that Meero for the last year had been running the Ghorman project, an espionage effort to increase the Empire's control over the planet Ghorman. Unbeknownst to Jung, the goal of the project was to allow the gauge mining of Ghorman for its kalkite for an "energy project."
Information flow
Later that day, Jung arranged another meeting with Rael and returned to the turbolift to meet him. He had a blaster drawn when the two came face to face, Rael initially lamenting on how it had been three months since they had last met. At Rael's demand, Jung revealed Meero's involvement with Ghorman and the unprecedented secrecy behind it. Rael questioned the significance of Ghorman to the Empire, but the supervisor stated that he did not yet know. They continued to throw speculations between one another, Jung ultimately affirming that he was sure of the information he had given and that Meero was unintentionally off the Axis desk for now.
One later morning, Jung was speaking with Heert in the ISB central office when Partagaz arrived and pulled them aside. The major revealed that the Military Intelligence had swayed the Emperor into expanding the ISB's successful torture specialist Doctor Gorst into a program involving the other intelligence branch. As Jung gave sympathies to the matter, Partagaz tasked him and Heert with representing the ISB's interests in the program. After talking down Heert's enthusiasm for the assignment, the major added that there would be a brief and left them. Jung told Heert that the latter would take the lead, asking the more newer supervisor to fill him in after reading the brief before leaving.
The banquet
When an operation diverted his attention, Partagaz gave Jung and Heert his invites to an Investiture party hosted by the Chandrilan banker Davo Sculdun at his Coruscant office. As the men drank Kali Coolers, Jung advised the enthusiastic Heert to make the most of the opportunity as they may never be back. Lagret then arrived and asked how the pair had gotten in. Jung joked that they came every year, but Heert revealed the true reason. Jung soon walked with his two colleagues towards a private showing of Sculdun's collection when Marki pulled him aside, talking through a brief cover story of the two flirting to get her into the gallery. Jung was distressed, but Marki demanded that he did everything she said.
Marki steered Jung into a room where Sculdun was showing his collection to select guests, including Heert, Lagret, and Rael as his public persona. Rael's assistant guided the supervisor to an artifact known as the Tinian Codex, where she intended to remove a listening device before it could be found by Sculdun. Jung stressed that it was suicide, but Marki kept explaining their cover while partially staying in character. As the assistant began, she told Jung to move to his left, but the latter continued to question her risky manoeuvres. Marki briefly explained the listening device and that she was in a do-or-die situation so that the supervisor could finally comply.
The pair continued in character while Marki used a tool to try and dislodge the listening device from the artifact. He soon learned that her tool had jammed, and when she asked for him to shift right, he tried to leave. Marki stopped him again, ordering him to shift right. With the tool still stuck, she had Jung hold the codex in order for her to finally get the device out. After Marki was successful, Sculdun and the other guests arrived, Rael nudging Jung as he stood beside him. One of the guests, Director Orson Krennic, asked Marki about the piece, understanding that it was a favourite of hers. Receiving a glance from the assistant, Jung jumped in and explained what he knew of the codex. Rael and Marki ultimately left the party with their device safely removed.
Compromised agent
In 2 BBY, the Ghorman project culminated in Imperial forces, overseen by Meero, massacring many Ghormans after staging the murder of one of their security troopers during a protest. In response, Senator Mon Mothma planned to speak out against the Empire's narrative on the events. One of Jung's agents, Beska, infiltrated a team of rebel spies secretly put together to extract Mothma.
Rael soon learned about the team's corruption and informed Mothma, arranging for an alternative rescue in the form of his operative Cassian Andor. Beska entered the Imperial Senate Building and met with her two associates, learning of Mothma's plans from the lead spy. However, despite her efforts to sabotage their extraction and arrest Mothma after her speech, the agent was ultimately killed by Andor. Mothma went and officialised the Rebel Alliance against the Empire shortly afterwards. Around the same time, Jung managed to acquire the code cert for Meero's private storage, choosing to save using it for the right time.
A deadly discovery
In 1 BBY, Meero had a lead on Rael and contacted a member of ISB Tactical about putting a team together for an operation in Coruscant. The individual was a friend of Jung's and asked him if it was safe to comply. Suspecting that Meero was going for Rael, Jung chose to use the code cert and access her files. With a two-hour window, he learned of a superweapon that Director Krennic had been building for years, one which involved the supposed energy project, the Ghorman project, Scarif, and more. This was the Death Star battle station. Knowing how sensitive the information was, he called a last resort signal to Rael and promptly left the ISB Central Office looking over his shoulder.
Jung waited for Rael at a park bench. When the rebel spy finally arrived, the supervisor explained what he knew about Meero's request for tactical. When Rael suggested calling the friend in tactical again to find out more, Jung revealed that he had been burned and began bargaining important information for him and his family's safety. As the supervisor stressed how big the information he had was, Rael pressed him for details, and so he began explaining how much that they had been investigating in the past years were fronts for a secret weapon of Krennic's.
Before he gave more information, Jung asked where Rael would take him and his family. The spy promised to take them to moon Yavin 4, asking for more on the weapon. Jung then explained further mentioning the importance of the Imperial engineer Galen Erso. Rael ultimately shot the supervisor in the chest, leaving him dead on the bench. A tooka named Pix soon came across Jung's body while the rebel spy fled.
Legacy
Rael promptly met with Marki nearby and passed on Jung's intelligence. He then sent her along to a rendezvous while he went back to destroy all of the secret equipment at his antiquities shop. While working hastily at the shop, Rael was interrupted by Meero and stabbed himself before he could be properly arrested. Jung's death soon came to the attention of Heert, who was held up by the news for three minutes while an ISB board meeting took place covering Meero's raid. Heert arrived late and informed Partagaz and Lagret of the supervisor's death, stunning the major..
Marki tracked Rael to the Lina Soh Hospital and ended his life before fleeing, eventually making it back to the Rebel Alliance at their base on Yavin 4.
Personality and traits
A human male, Lonni Jung had auburn hair, blue eyes, and light skin. As an undercover rebel informant, Jung lived a stressful life, a feeling which only grew after the birth of his first child. Despite the calm demeanor Jung presented as a supervisor, he was overcome with loneliness and anxiety. Unprepared for the sensation brought by his daughter, he reevaluated the risk of his position to be too great for the safety of him and his family. Although Jung was still devoted member of the Rebellion and sought to save others targeted by the ISB. Dedra Meero considered Jung to be a meddling busybody on the fringes of the ISB.
Equipment
Jung wore a white Imperial officer's uniform with two code cylinders and a rank insignia plaque with three blue squares.
