This article is about the Imperial officer. You may be looking for the Rebel Alliance admiral.

"An Imperial officer hid a valuable relic here. She was hoping to use it to gain favor with the Emperor, but her deception was making her reckless."
―Cal Kestis describing Krane[2]

Krane was a humanoid female officer of the Galactic Empire who took charge of Project Auger, an Imperial mining operation to excavate the many ancient artifacts on the planet of Zeffo. Attempting to earn Emperor Palpatine's favor, she became reckless in an endeavor which eventually led to her death.

Biography[]

"What is this? Continue excavating. I want rare artifacts, not useless trinkets!"
―Krane, to a group of stormtroopers[2]

In charge of Project Auger on the planet Zeffo, the humanoid female known as Officer Krane believed that the officer formerly assigned to the project did not have proper leadership and motivation, taking over the project for herself. The stormtroopers under Krane often questioned her motives and felt pressured. Determined to prove herself, Krane wanted artifacts that she considered rare instead of what was considered useless. After a stormtrooper discovered a relic in the Ice Caves, she attempted to keep it for herself, believing that handing it over to Emperor Palpatine would win his favor. When questioned by a stormtrooper about the whereabouts of the artifact she stated that she would deal with it. However, this endeavor made her reckless. When hiding the relic in a cave she became trapped when it collapsed, dying.[2]
