Pour One Out For Tivik, The Most Important Star Wars Character No One Talks About

Let's give it up for a man named Tivik. Without him, there's every chance that Alderaan wouldn't have been the only planet destroyed by the Death Star in "Star Wars: Episode IV -- A New Hope." Sure, a lot of people can make that claim: Galen Erso, Jyn Erso, Luthen Rael, Cassian Andor, Bodhi Rook. But they all get their place in the spotlight and we talk about them. So much digital ink gets spilled all over those characters, yet Tivik just waits for his day in the sun, so we're going to give it to him.
For those who don't remember him, Tivik appeared at the beginning of "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" (where he was portrayed by actor Daniel Mays). The "Star Wars" universe is full of fascinating side characters, yet Tivik found himself tucked away in the back alleys of the Ring of Kafrene, an asteroid-based environment.
