Moradmin Bast is a human Imperial general, played in A New Hope (1977) by Leslie Schofield and credited only as "Commander #1". He served as chief of staff and aide to Grand Moff Tarkin aboard the Death Star, and he is the officer who brings the analysis of the Rebel attack to the command deck and suggests that Tarkin's ship be made ready.
Tarkin declines. The station is destroyed minutes later at the Battle of Yavin, killing Bast along with everyone else aboard. He is a two-line part whose entire function is to establish that the Empire's problem was never a shortage of people who noticed.
