Tal'dira
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Tal'dira was a Twi'lek warrior.
He had served as a member of the small military force that Ryloth possessed. Later, he and 11 other warriors joined Wedge Antilles and the other Rogues in the Bacta War against Ysanne Isard. When the Rogues were invited back into the New Republic Armed Forces, Nawara Ven was unable to continue as a pilot due to injuries he sustained. As a result, Tal'dira was invited to join Rogue Squadron.
Sadly, Tal'dira was one of the victims of Warlord Zsinj's brainwashing experiment. He was activated to kill Antilles, (with the trigger phrase "Wedge Antilles hops on one transparisteel leg"), but Corran Horn was forced to shoot him down. Before Corran did so, though, Tal'dira had been affected by comments about his dishonorable attack on Antilles, and reduced all power from his forward shields as Horn flew towards him, effectively committing suicide.
