Lanzora Garan was a human who served as a lieutenant in the forces of the First Order during its war against the Resistance. In 35 ABY, she was stationed as a security officer on board the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast, flagship of Supreme Leader Kylo Ren. Garan was tasked with keeping a close eye on inter-ship signals for any indication of compromised communication lines or activity by enemy agents. She had direct lines of communication to First Order Supreme Council members Allegiant General Enric Pryde and General Armitage Hux as well as First Order Security Bureau command.
Lanzora Garan witnessed the execution of General Hux by Allegiant General Pryde on board the Steadfast.
After the Jedi-in-training Rey and her allies infiltrated and then escaped from the Steadfast while it was above the planet Kijimi, Garan was on the bridge of the Star Destroyer when Hux reported to Pryde on how their foes had forced him to aid them in fleeing. As Garan watched, Pryde shot and killed Hux, having realized that the general was in fact a spy who had been aiding the Resistance. Shortly after Hux's death, the First Order was defeated and the Steadfast destroyed during the Battle of Exegol.
Garan wore a gray First Order officer's uniform with a high stiff collar that ensured proper posture was maintained. The uniform also included a gray cap, two code cylinders, a black belt, and black boots.
Lanzora Garan was portrayed by Mandeep Dhillon in the 2019 sequel trilogy film, Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker. The film's credits identified her as "Lieutenant Garan," with the character's first name being provided in the accompanying reference book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo.
