[edit] Biography

He joined the fledgling New Republic after Sullust began moving toward a relationship with them, and found the galaxy much to his liking. He was particularly interested in the various musical styles of the galaxy, although his taste in music often got on his fellow Rogues' nerves.

He joined Rogue Squadron soon after Endor, his first mission being with the first batch of New Republic pilots on Cilpar. He would accompany the Rogues on another three missions until his sacrifice on Malrev IV.

When the Rogues were dispatched to search for the Starfaring near Malrev IV, Dllr began hearing the most beautiful music coming from the planet. He thought the music was a product of the planet, and could even see the music in front of him. However, the music was actually the power of Sith magic being channeled by the mad Devaronian, Cartariun. Cartariun used the dark side to lure Dllr to his temple, where Cartariun began channeling more energy with Dllr's belief in the music.

Dllr was mentally linked to Herian I'ngre by this music, which both had heard. However, Herian recognized the dark side before she could be overtaken. She willed Dllr to resist, which he was able to for a short time. However, in the end, Dllr gave himself as the ultimate sacrifice. He absorbed the Sith energy wielded by Cartariun and tried to turn it against the Devaronian, but was shot in the back by Girov Dza'tey. Later, having survived the blast, Dllr helped Herian to safety. However, both sacrificed themselves in eliminating Cartariun, flying Herian's X-wing into his temple and destroying it.
