Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Catalyst: A Rogue One Novel is a 2016 Star Wars Expanded Universe novel by James Luceno (who previously wrote Tarkin in the same continuity, and wrote the Star Wars Legends novel Darth Plagueis), serving as a prologue and background to Rogue One, taking place several years prior during the Clone Wars.Before becoming the director of the Death Star project, Orson Krennic was a mere member of the project's team. Finding that his old friend, brilliant scientist Galen Erso, has conducted energy-focused research that could be the key to this new superweapon, it also attracts the attention of Krennic's enemies, including the Separatists.After rescuing the Erso family from Separatist kidnappers, the Ersos are deeply in Krennic's debt. With Galen and Lyra's approval, they allow their studies to be used, under the false belief that they will be used purely for altruism, unaware of Krennic's true plans of making the Death Star a reality.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Trapped in their benefactor's tightening grasp, the Ersos must untangle Krennic's web of deception to save themselves and the Galaxy itself.The novel was released on November 15, 2016.

Actual Pacifist: Galen has absolutely no interest in the Clone War. He will provide his services to either side, but only for reasons not related to killing people.

90% of Your Brain: Well, no, but the spirit of the trope is there. Galen is so efficient about the use of his brain that he figured out a while ago how to use his dreams to figure out things he couldn't consciously. Whatever is going on with the kybers has been altering that, making him overwork in order to complete it and working in different regions of his brain than he's used to, as his old approach probably wouldn't work as well for the explicitly magical crystals.
