    Dialog transcript
    Admiral Piett hesitates in the entryway to Vader's private cubicle. After a moment, he steps into the room and pauses at the surprising sight before him. Darth Vader, his back turned, is silhouetted in the gloom on the far side of the chamber. Among the various apparatuses surrounding them, a respirator tube now retracts from Vader's uncovered head. The head is bald with a mass of ugly scar tissue covering it. The black droid then lowers the mask and helmet onto Vader's head. When it is in place, the Dark Lord turns to face Piett.
    Darth Vader
    Yes, Admiral?
    Firmus Piett
    Our ships have sighted the Millennium Falcon, lord. But... it has entered an asteroid field and we cannot risk...
    Darth Vader
    Asteroids do not concern me, Admiral. I want that ship and not excuses.
    Firmus Piett
    Yes, lord.

    Lorth Needa (from Avenger)
    ... and that, Lord Vader, was the last time they appeared in any of our scopes. Considering the amount of damage we've sustained, they must have been destroyed.
    Darth Vader (from Executor)
    No, Captain, they're alive. I want every ship available to sweep the asteroid field until they are found.

    Lord Vader.
    Darth Vader
    Yes, Admiral, what is it?
    Firmus Piett
    The Emperor commands you make contact with him.
    Darth Vader
    Move the ship out of the asteroid field so that we can send a clear transmission.
    Firmus Piett
    Yes, my lord.

    Yes, sir.

    Those Rebels won't escape us.
    Venka
    Sir, we have a priority signal from the Star Destroyer Avenger.
    Firmus Piett
    Right.

    Darth Vader
    Apology accepted, Captain Needa.
    Firmus Piett
    Lord Vader, our ships have completed their scan of the area and found nothing. If the Millennium Falcon went into light-speed, it'll be on the other side of the galaxy by now.
    Darth Vader
    Alert all commands. Calculate every possible destination along their last know trajectory.
    Firmus Piett
    Yes, my lord. We'll find them.
    Darth Vader
    Don't fail me again, Admiral.
    Firmus Piett
    Alert all commands. Deploy the fleet.

Summary
Firmus Piett was a Human male who was the last admiral of the Imperial Navy's Death Squadron, Darth Vader's personal fleet of Star Destroyers. Coming from humble beginnings on the backwater Outer Rim world of Axxila, Piett began his naval career with the Axxila antipirate fleet. Though his posting was not notable, Piett's creativity, dedication and integrity made his home sector the safest in the Outer Rim. Piett made an extraordinary number of arrests and suppressions of smugglers and pirates, and his record earned the attention of high-ranking officers on Imperial Center.
His star rising in the Imperial Navy, Piett was given the captaincy of the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Accuser, seeing service at the Battle of Turkana before being picked out to serve in Vader's Death Squadron, which prowled the galaxy searching for Rebel Alliance headquarters. When command of the fleet's flagship, Star Dreadnought Executor, became vacant, Vader selected Piett to fill the post. As captain of the Executor, Piett relentlessly searched for the hidden Alliance base while secretly undermining his superior, Admiral Kendal Ozzel. At the Battle of Hoth, Ozzel was summarily executed by Vader for incompetence, allowing Piett to swiftly step into the high admiral's role.
