Miko Reglia was a male Human Jedi Knight who had been the apprentice of Jedi Master Kyp Durron, and co-founder of the Dozen-and-Two Avengers. He was in love with fellow Jedi Knight Octa Ramis. Miko was a very quiet and humble man who kept mostly to himself. He was very adept at wielding a lightsaber and he spent much of his training time practicing with his blade. He was often given to sitting alone and staring at the stars.^[1]

BiographyEdit

Miko Reglia was captured by the Praetorite Vong at Helska 4 during the first wave of the invasion, when the Avengers were ambushed by a squadron of coralskippers. During his captivity, he was forced to endure excruciating torture meant to test the capabilities of a Jedi. After weeks of such torture, he was nearly at his breaking point, unable to even call upon the Force to silence the mental anguish inflicted upon him by the Yammosk.

When Jacen Solo attempted to rescue him and fellow prisoner Danni Quee from the Praetorite Vong base at Helska 4, Miko launched himself at two Yuuzhan Vong warriors, dragging them into the ice-cold water of the planet. All three were killed, with Miko becoming the first Jedi casualty of the war. In this, his final act of defiance, Miko was able to overcome the Yuuzhan Vong breaking process and die a hero.

The Dozen-and-Two AvengersEdit

During the early stages of the Praetorite Vong invasion, Miko flew as Kyp Durron's wing-man in the independent fighter squadron known as "The Dozen-and-Two Avengers" that he and Durron co-founded. The squadron consisted of twelve regular starfighter pilots and two Jedi from whence came their name.

Easily the second best pilot in the squadron, behind his Jedi Master Kyp Durron, Miko held no aspirations for command and was content to fly and fight wherever his master felt their presence was necessary. Mostly this duty consisted of minor engagements in hunting smuggler rings in the Outer Rim Territories, much to the disapproval of Luke Skywalker, however things turned more interesting when an observation buoy picked up the distress calls coming from the endangered scientists of ExGal-4 on Belkadan. When they noted a Spacecaster had left the scientific outpost for the fourth planet of the Helska system the Dozen-and-Two went in for investigation.

Capture and ImprisonmentEdit

Upon arrival at Helska IV the squadron encountered a formidable force of coralskippers using advanced organic technology. While flying wing for Kyp Durron, Miko's state-of-the-art X-wing starfighter was stripped of its shields by way of an artificial gravity well. Without shields Miko's ship was quickly disabled and he was taken to the icy home base of the Praetorite Vong on the planet below.

Beaten, bruised, and stripped of all clothing save a tight pair of shorts, Miko was thrown into an underwater holding cell with the former ExGal-4 scientist Danni Quee. As the first Jedi that the Yuuzhan Vong had been fortunate enough to capture, they were curious to test the will-power of the supposed super-beings. Therefore Miko's mind would be put through a rigorous regimen designed to break his confidence and leave him stripped of all hope and will. Prefect Da'Gara claimed that Miko was an unworthy warrior and that he would soon be sacrificed to the Yammosk.

Miko proved resourceful upon awaking, however, and, with the help of Danni Quee, managed to best their Yuuzhan Vong guards and attempt an escape. The attempt was short-lived however as Da'Gara was able to immobilize the young Jedi using the strong adhesive Blorash jelly right in his path.

Miko was then subjected to numerous mental anguishes, during which he was convinced that he was at the brink of death countless times, only to find that the nightmare had not released him and would continue to haunt him. The telepathic abilities of the Yammosk played these horrid memories in vivid detail through Miko's mind refusing to allow him a moment of peace, wholly intent on the breaking of the young Jedi's mind.

With the arrival of Jacen Solo and the New Republic Task Force above Helska IV, and the ensuing rescue attempt made by the young Solo, Miko was afforded his first glimmer of hope since his capture. However, this hope was not for him, and so he pulled two Yuuzhan Vong warriors into the icy depths below the planet's surface, sacrificing himself that Jacen and Danni might escape.
