"You will never stop us. We will not be broken. However long it takes, we will never stop fighting."
―Caluan Ematt, to Commander Alecia Beck[src]

Caluan Ematt was a human male soldier who served as a lieutenant in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. He fought against the Galactic Empire, during which Ematt was given command of the Shrikes, a special recon unit that was tasked with identifying, securing and preparing new Rebel bases for the Alliance. He was a friend of Princess Leia Organa and would later go on to serve with her at a Resistance base as a major, and later general in the Resistance during the war against the First Order

Biography

Galactic Civil War

Lt Ematt

Ematt as a young Lieutenant.

Lieutenant Caluan Ematt was a soldier in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during its fight against the Galactic Empire in the Galactic Civil War serving as part of the Shrikes recon unit.[1] Shortly after the Battle of Hoth, Ematt accompanied Nien Nunb to the Remembrance so that they could pick Leia Organa up and take her to a secret meeting with the leadership of the Alliance to Restore the Republic on Zastiga.[6] Ematt was later part of the Endor strike team led by General Han Solo, and participated in the climactic Battle of Endor.[4]

Joining the Resistance

Major Ematt edit

Ematt as a Resistance Major

Eventually the Alliance to Restore the Republic was able to defeat the Empire and was able to form the New Republic and Ematt became a member of it.[5] In 28 ABY,[8] following the assassination of Senator Tai-Lin Garr, Ematt attended a secret meeting with several other New Republic soldiers, pilots, and officers where Leia announced the formation of the Resistance, a paramilitary organization dedicated to defending the New Republic from threats like the First Order.[5]

In the early days of the Resistance, Ematt served as an agent for Organa by continuing his service in the New Republic military whilst seeking potential converts for the Resistance. After the defection of too many New Republic pilots to go unnoticed, Ematt left his post in the Republic to fully join the Resistance.[2]

Sometime after, he escorted General Organa to the Mirrin Prime Republic Base to see the recruitment of Commander Poe Dameron, fresh from a skirmish with the First Order. Ematt intercepted the young pilot as he landed with two shore police, and brought him to the General.[9]

Personality and traits

"Trust is as precious as it is rare, but you only get it by giving it."
―Caluan Ematt to Han Solo[src]

Caluan Ematt was a human male with brown hair and eyes.[1]

Behind the scenes

Caluan Ematt first appeared in the simultaneous release of Smuggler's Run: A Han Solo & Chewbacca Adventure and Moving Target: A Princess Leia Adventure on Force Friday in 2015, identified only as "Ematt." Later that September, Nestlé released Smuggler's Run, an animated adaptation of the novel, in which Ematt's first name is identified as "Caluan." Jordan D. White, an editor for the Star Wars comics at Marvel who worked on the video, confirmed the spelling on Twitter. He was portrayed by Andrew Jack in Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens and Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi.

(backup link (DelReyStarWars/status/652893780236988420) not verified!) The tweet in question states that the events of Bloodline take place six years before the events of the film Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas establishes that the events of The Force Awakens take place in the year 34 ABY and so using simple math it can be concluded that the events of Bloodline take place in 28 ABY.
