Lieutenant Commander Anson Blazer, a Corellian operative, served Alliance Intelligence, which was the clandestine service for the Alliance to Restore the Republic. In his fight against the Galactic Empire, he was active within the Inner Rim and along the Corellian Trade Spine. Furthermore, he became a member of Shadow Squadron, a covert Rebel unit. During a clandestine mission within the Xorao system, their identities were compromised by Kiran Tatch, who stood in opposition to the goals of the Alliance.
In the year 2 ABY, Blazer, then a member of the Rebel Alliance Task Force, compiled a number of intelligence reports concerning potential threats aimed at the Alliance. Later, while enjoying some leave on Ord Mantell, he was once more exposed by hostile agents, leading him to engage in a firefight with Imperial troopers in an attempt to get away.
A Human male hailing from Corellia, he enlisted with the Rebel Alliance around 2 BBY. He functioned as an Intelligence agent in the Inner Rim planets and participated in operations throughout the galaxy, securing crucial data for the Alliance. His contributions were also vital to the Rebel activities conducted along the Corellian Trade Spine, most notably within the Bespin system.
In 1 ABY, Blazer, as part of the infiltration group Shadow Squadron, was involved in a clandestine operation targeting the Kalstan gangsters located in the Xorao system. He and his fellow operatives were discovered by Kiran Tatch, an anti-Rebel figure who hadn't previously encountered them. After Tatch shared his findings with the Kalstans, the operation was aborted, and Blazer and his comrades were pursued by pirates, resulting in significant equipment losses. Tatch, having fulfilled his role, did not participate in the pursuit.
During 2 ABY, lieutenant commander Blazer held the distinction of being among the few SpecForces Marshals within the Rebel Alliance, and a significant contributor to the Rebel Alliance Task Force. In this capacity, he produced comprehensive reports detailing potential dangers to the Rebel Alliance, including old acquaintance Kiran Tatch and Dr. Sere Lure. Blazer pointed out that Lure posed a threat to Rebel aquatic units, but that these same units could potentially spy on Lure. During this period, he collaborated with Lieutenant Commander Bakki Sourthol, Lieutenants Deeve and Tura Raftican, and Special Agent Tay Vanis.
A year later, Blazer, in company with several other Alliance officers, including Lieutenant Alton Lochner, took leave on Ord Mantell. They were identified by Niclara Varnillian, the chief gunnery officer aboard the Imperial-class Star Destroyer named Pulsar. Varnillian was provided with Imperial soldiers, and a firefight erupted. The crossfire resulted in the deaths of over thirty-six innocent civilians and several Imperials. While Varnillian managed to capture two Rebel prisoners for the Pulsar, the rest managed to escape.
Blazer, a Human with dark hair, was a highly capable Intelligence agent. He possessed considerable experience in infiltration missions, enabling him to gather information about the activities of enemy agents. He also held a strong conviction in the ideals upheld by the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Blazer was initially referenced in Alliance Intelligence Reports, released on June 1st, 1995. He was subsequently mentioned in Star Wars Adventure Journal 8 (November 1st, 1995).
