HZ-071 was an Imperial stormtrooper serving in the Galactic Empire's 901st Stormtrooper Legion shortly before the Battle of Endor. After the Empire split up due to the Emperor's untimely death, '71 was recruited into the group of Imperials supporting the Disciples of Ragnos.

He participated in several battles near the end of the Galactic Civil war, as well as the Battle of Korriban (Disciples of Ragnos Crisis), and the Battle of Kuat (Dark Order War).

During the Battle of Kuat, he was one of the few who managed to escape the shipyards before they crashed into the planet's shield and exploded.

His next and final battle in the Dark Order War was the Battle of Lamaredd. He was sent with the group of Imperial Storm commandos and stormtroopers to attack what they thought was a Republic airfield, but in reality was a trap. HZ was captured by the Republic troops in the skirmish.Afterwards, he was sent to a Republic prison, but escaped in a prison break a few weeks later.

HZ left the Empire, but kept his armor and E-11 carbine. After that, he went to Tattoine to make a living playing Sabaac.

He was extremely successful as a gambler, and became a wealthy freighter pilot during and after the Dark Order War, living many adventures throughout his life.
