Jaguarus

Jaguarus is a fictional character from the *Star Wars* expanded universe, first appearing in the 2015 novel *Thrawn* by Timothy Zahn. Serving as a member of the Imperial Security Bureau (ISB), Jaguarus is a human agent assigned to the Death Star II under Grand Admiral Thrawn. His name is derived from the jaguar, a large wild cat known for its strength and cunning.

Jaguarus is portrayed as a highly skilled and ruthless operative, specializing in interrogation and counterintelligence. He plays a significant role in the novel, working alongside Thrawn to uncover a Grand Admiral’s plot against the Empire. His character is depicted as disciplined, intelligent, and deeply loyal to the Imperial cause, though he occasionally questions orders that conflict with his moral code.

The character was later referenced in other *Star Wars* media, including the 2017 novel *Thrawn: Alliances* and the 2019 novel *Thrawn: Treason*. Jaguarus’s inclusion in the expanded universe expanded the lore of the Imperial Security Bureau, offering deeper insight into its operations during the Galactic Empire’s reign.

While Jaguarus remains a minor character compared to major *Star Wars* figures, his contributions highlight the complexity of Imperial intelligence and its role in the broader conflict. His portrayal reflects the expanded universe’s tendency to explore lesser-known aspects of the *Star Wars* galaxy, providing additional depth to the franchise’s mythology.
