 [edit] Horzao Darr Horzao Darr was a Human male from the isolated planet of Exocron within the Kathol Outback, a largely unexplored section of the galaxy in the Outer Rim Territories. An officer in the Exocron Airfleet, he was a skilled and respected sky-sailor, and commanded the flagship, the sky-dreadnaught Maxion. In 8 ABY, Captain Darr made first contact with representatives of the New Republic when the corvette FarStar accidentally discovered the planet while searching for the rogue Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne. The ruling caste of his homeworld, the Devisors, decreed that the New Republic representatives could never leave Exocron in order to maintain the safety and security of the planet. Disgusted at this turn of events, Darr rescued the stranded crew members and allied with the planet's insurgents to free their commander, Captain Kaiya Adrimetrum. This act of defiance would lead to the ended of the Devisors' rule, freeing the planet from their technocracy. Darr continued to serve in the military, and by 19 ABY had been promoted to the rank of Supreme Admiral. He was commander of the Exocron Combined Air-Space Fleet, the successor to the Exocron Airfleet he had served in several years previously, during the attack on Exocron by the Rodian Rei'Kas and his pirate fleet. The assault on the planet was repulsed with the assistance of the Aing-Tii, a race of mysterious Force-wielding aliens from the Kathol Rift. |
[edit] Keleman Ciro Keleman Ciro was a Human male from the planet Dolomar. Along with his brother, Noell, he was a member of one of the planet's resistance groups and assisted in the ousting of Imperial forces from his homeworld. Following the liberation of Dolomar, Ciro joined the New Republic military as a soldier, serving with the forces in Brak sector. His service record earned him a transfer to the elite Page's Commandos in 6 ABY. Two years later, Ciro was a part of the squad that infiltrated the planet Kal'Shebbol in order to bring down the defensive shields surrounding the main continent. Despite the successful liberation of the planet, the Imperial ruler of Kal'Shebbol, Moff Kentor Sarne, escaped into the Kathol sector with the majority of his forces. Having learned that the Moff had access to a powerful new form of weaponry, Lieutenant Judder Page assigned Ciro to command a mission to chase Sarne down and neutralize him. Although he was a soldier, Ciro was placed in command of the CR90 corvette FarStar, a heavily modified ship that had once been part of Sarne's fleet. Ciro was captured by forces loyal to Moff Sarne in the Kolatill system early in the mission. Taken to the Q'Maere Research Facility within the Kathol Rift, he was physically and mentally tortured and retreated into a catatonic state. Weeks later, he was rescued by the crew of the FarStar, but eventually passed away in the ship's medical bay shortly before the ship arrived in the Kathol system. |
[edit] Bungo Bung Bungo Bung was a male Sullustan from the planet Sullust. Despite growing up working on his father's boaboo fungus farm, Bung harbored a desire to pilot starships. Joining SoroSuub Corporation's Transport and Supply Division, he eventually attained the command of the Chubby Gundark, a Nyubba-class cargo barge driver. Assisted by his droid co-pilot, 42-RST—known as Rusti—Bung was the pioneer of the Great Bantha Breakfast Biscuit Run between Sullust and Gastrula in the Outer Rim Territories during the Galactic Civil War. Bung transported Biscuit Baron's Bantha Breakfast Biscuits to the native Gastrulans, despite interference on the first run from Imperial Captain Wankle. Although he made a healthy profit, Bung broke even after spending much of the money on repairs to his ship after an encounter with a Giant Amorphous Bantha Breakfast Biscuit, a strange anomalous lifeform that was the result of the interaction between the preservatives in Bantha Breakfast and the stale air in his ship. He survived by defeating the creature with blue sauce, which, as the recommended accompaniment to a Breakfast Bantha Biscuit, proved to be the lifeform's weakness. |
[edit] Akanseh Akanseh was a male Mon Calamari doctor from the planet Mon Calamari. A philanthropist and accomplished surgeon, he wanted to use his skills to take medical care to the backwater planets of the galaxy. When the Galactic Empire invaded his homeworld, Akanseh fled and avoided becoming a slave. Hiding for several years, he built a fully automated surgical suite staffed by droids and set out to achieve his goals. Since the surgical suite could be broken down and stowed in the hold of a freighter, Akanseh used free-traders to transport the apparatus from world to world. While being ferried between planets, the freighter Akanseh had booked passage on was intercepted by an Interdictor cruiser. The doctor was taken to Moff Kentor Sarne, an Imperial warlord who ruled the Kathol sector. Sarne saw that Akanseh's talents and surgical suite would serve him well, and forced the Mon Calamari to work for him as an interrogator and torturer. Akanseh did his best to act humanely in this role, using persuasion and coercion to gain his subject's secrets without resorting to violence. Despite this, he still used more forceful methods on occasion. In 8 ABY, he was freed from his servitude to the Moff by Page's Commandos of the New Republic during the Battle of Kal'Shebbol. Moff Sarne had fled Kal'Shebbol with the bulk of his fleet, and the New Republic corvette FarStar had been assigned to track him down and neutralize any threat he posed. Akanseh signed onto the crew of the FarStar as chief medical officer, hoping to atone for his actions while in Sarne's service. Several months into the voyage, the vessel stopped at the planet Q'Maere in the Kathol Rift. The planet was the site of the Q'Maere Research Facility, a former scientific outpost that had been converted into a penal colony by Moff Sarne. Many of the inmates had been poorly and brutally treated, and Akanseh elected to stay behind at the outpost to care for them. |
[edit] Krudar Krudar was a male Duros gunner who served with the Alliance to Restore the Republic, pirates, and the New Republic during his career. Originally a member of the Rebel Alliance, Krudar left their service after becoming convinced that the organization used their mandate of bringing freedom to the galaxy to justify acts of terrorism and violence. Joining a group of pirates, Krudar befriended the Guudrian Boom, and crewed with them until the gang was destroyed by Imperial forces. Hiding out on Kal'Shebbol in the Kathol sector with Boom, Krudar was present when the New Republic launched an assault on the planet to liberate it from the rule of Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne. Despite the successful freeing of the world, Moff Sarne managed to escape into the Kathol sector with the majority of his forces. The New Republic authorized the CR90 corvette FarStar to track down the rogue warlord and neutralize any threat he posed to the region, but was forced to recruit from the civilian population of Kal'Shebbol to crew the vessel. Krudar joined the mission and convinced the New Republic selectors to accept Boom as well. The Duros served on the FarStar throughout its mission into the Kathol sector, participating in several missions along the way. However, his surly and temperamental attitude did little to endear him to the rest of the crew, and he was involved in several confrontations with other personnel during the mission. At the end of the FarStar mission, he participated in the Battle of Kathol, an engagement that saw the end of Moff Sarne. |
[edit] Drigor Tarrens Drigor Tarrens was a male Human scientist from a colony in the Kathol Outback, a largely unexplored sector of space beyond the edge of the Kathol sector. Believing that biological technology was superior to traditional inanimate technology, he joined a group of like-minded scientists known as the Qektoth Confederation who were based at the University of Sanbra's Q'Maere Research Facility within the Kathol Rift. After a series of experiments came back with disappointing results, the scientists left the facility to pursue their own goals, and Tarrens accompanied them. During his time with the Confederation, the organization changed from a group of idealistic scientists trying to save the galaxy from the perceived dangers of traditional technologies, to a militant order that advocated war against those that would use their technology to keep the population of the galaxy "enslaved." Tarrens disagreed with these views, and learned of a project that would use the genetic material of the Confederation's own members to create new life-forms. Before Tarrens could reveal this plan to the rest of the organization, his starfighter exploded upon take-off, and his life was saved through the use of cybernetics. Charged with treason, which was punishable by death, Tarrens fled to the planet Uukaablis and was granted political asylum. There, Tarrens lived in seclusion until the crew of the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar sought his help. They had encountered a biochemical agent created by the Confederation, and needed a cure for it. After learning that he might have been exposed to the agent as well, Tarrens directed them to a research facility in the Qu'mock system. After the FarStar delegation left, Tarrens discovered that he had been infected by the agent, and realized that the crew of the New Republic ship was his only hope. Taking his personal Helix-class light interceptor to the Qu'mock system, Tarrens was instrumental in helping the FarStar to defeat a Qektoth Attack Cruiser, and recover the data needed to create a cure for the agent. |
[edit] Kolatill Kolatill was a planet located in the Kolatill system within the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. A stopping point for ships plying their business on the Trition Trade Route, the planet was located several days' travel from the sector capital, Kal'Shebbol. Noted as one of the sector's major repulsorlift manufacturing centers, Kolatill was ruled by the Kolatill Council until Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne was appointed to administer the Kathol sector in 2 BBY. In 0 ABY, the planet was placed under martial law, and most of the repulsorlift industry was ordered to produce combat speeders for Moff Sarne's forces. In 8 ABY, after the successful liberation of Kal'Shebbol by New Republic forces, a popular uprising on Kolatill overthrew their Imperial governor, Tetrum, and reinstated the Kolatill Council. Following this act of defiance, the escort carrier Kathol Protector arrived in-system and deployed TIE bombers to attack the capital city of Domaz, leaving it ruined and aflame. Kolatill sent out a distress call, which was answered by the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar. The vessel provided relief assistance to the planet, and engaged the Kathol Protector in battle after the Imperial vessel returned for a second strike on the world using pathogenic bombs. Between the combined efforts of the FarStar, its fighter squadron, and the Kolatill Defense Force, the planet was spared from further devastation. |
[edit] Miktiss Miktiss was a male Saurton warrior from the planet Essowyn in the Trax sector. A loyal supporter of the Des'mar, a faction of Saurtons who supported the mining companies that dominated their homeworld, Miktiss participated in military operations against the Quenno, a group opposed to the presence of the corporations. However, since his actions were illegal, he was eventually brought before the Saurton Council of Elders to answer for his crimes. Despite being employed by members of the Council who were Des'mar supporters themselves, he was sentenced to death since the proof of his guilt was absolute. However, his loyalty to the Des'mar cause was so strong that he refused to implicate members of the Council in his actions. As a reward for his sacrifice, he was smuggled off-planet prior to his execution on the proviso that he never returned to Essowyn. Striking out toward the Kathol sector, Miktiss turned to piracy and formed a group known as the Des'maric Pirates around 7 ABY. Stealing several Skipray Blastboats and an Action IV transport to use as the basis of his pirate fleet, he entered into an arrangement with a local crime lord, Crev Bombaasa, to supply freighter travel routes in exchange for a share of the pirates' take. Miktiss used his small fleet to capture several vessels and intimidate primitive backwaters throughout the Kathol sector. |
[edit] Makezh Makezh was a Human male from the planet Danoor in the Kathol Outback, an isolated sector of space in the Outer Rim Territories. Abducted by the Aing-Tii, a race of mysterious, Force-using aliens from the Kathol Rift, Makezh was brainwashed and implanted with the compulsion to retrieve a sacred artifact for them. The artifact, known as the Codex, was located within the Kathol Rift, on an alien construct that the Aing-Tii viewed as sacred ground, and were forbidden to set foot on it by their own religious beliefs. The procedures they used left Makezh mentally scarred and amnesic, but with the uncanny ability to accurately navigate the Rift by "listening" to the "voices" within it. Returning to Danoor, Makezh plied his trade as a navigator of the Rift, catering to scientific parties. His navigational methods were instinctive, and they often made his passengers feel ill at ease, but he was considered to be the best Rift navigator on the planet. However, despite his skills, he struggled to earn a living, and was forced to steal food from a local market. Caught and jailed, government scientists began to take an interest in him and his abilities. He was eventually released, but the attention he had received, combined with a series of murders aimed at other navigators, frightened Makezh into believing that he was next in line to be killed. Around the same time, the New Republic vessel FarStar arrived at Danoor, looking to hire a navigator to guide them through the Rift. Representatives from the vessel were directed to Makezh, who initially believed that they were there to kill him. Convinced of their good intentions, the young navigator agreed to assist them as he saw it as an opportunity to leave the planet. Makezh guided the FarStar safely though the Rift, although his methods alarmed and frightened his fellow crew. They realized that, while his flying style was erratic, it was reliable and conceded that they probably would not be able to navigate the Rift without him. As the ship penetrated deeper into the Rift, the compulsion to retrieve the Codex within him grew stronger as he neared the site of the alien construct. Discovering the construct, a landing party from the FarStar retrieved the Codex from it while attempting to free the ship from the station's malfunctioning automated docking system and brought the artifact aboard the ship. The mental programming instilled into the navigator to steal the artifact steadily grew, threatening to drive Makezh mad. When the ship reached the planet Demonsgate on the edge of the Rift, Makezh finally snapped, stole the artifact and an X-wing and went to the surface. There, the Aing-Tii waited to claim the item, and took Makezh with them against his will. |
[edit] Rolf Treidum Rolf Treidum was a Human male who served in the Imperial Navy during the Galactic Civil War. During his service in the Deep Core, Treidum encountered a young officer named Kentor Sarne and became one of his staunchest supporters. As a result, when Sarne was appointed as Moff of the Kathol sector, Treidum transferred to the Kathol Sector Imperial Fleet and commanded the CR90 corvette Lialic II. Following the death of Emperor Palpatine during the Battle of Endor—a battle that also claimed the life of Treidum's only son—Treidum served Moff Sarne as he withdrew the Kathol sector from the Galactic Empire and set himself up as a warlord. In 8 ABY, following the New Republic's liberation of the planet Kal'Shebbol, Treidum and the Lialic II retreated with Sarne into the deep regions of the Kathol sector. However, when Sarne learned that the New Republic had dispatched the CR90 corvette FarStar to track him down, he ordered Treidum and the Lialic II to return to the Kathol Outback and delay the vessel as much as possible. Although Sarne wished the FarStar to locate him and call in a New Republic strike force, he wanted it to be on his own timetable, and at a place of his choosing. He planned to destroy the New Republic regional forces in one fell swoop, allowing him to reclaim the sector unopposed. As such, Treidum was ordered to only stall the vessel, and not destroy it. Renaming the Lialic II as the Lance of Endor, Treidum posed as a New Republic officer to stir up resentment for the New Republic and the FarStar by portraying the government as a totalitarian regime that wished to bring all planets under its dominion. Treidum fooled several governments with this ruse, including the Kathol Republic and the leaders of the planet Danoor. While Treidum did succeed in delaying the FarStar during its trip through the Kathol Outback, he was unable to enjoy his victory as he was killed during the Battle of Danoor, when the Lialic II was rammed by an Aing-Tii Sanhedrim ship. |
[edit] Keir Santage Keir Santage was a Human male who served in the Starfighter Corps of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. After being rescued from an Imperial detention center, Santage joined Rogue Squadron, the Alliance's premier starfighter unit. Under the command of Wedge Antilles, Santage operated under the call sign Rogue Seven. Flying a T-65 X-wing starfighter, Santage participated in several missions against the Fondor Shipyards, and often worked closely with Alliance procurement. In 4 ABY, Santage was serving with the Rogues when they were part of the Alliance Fleet assembled in the Sullust system to strike at the second Death Star orbiting the forest moon of Endor. Adopting the call sign Red Seven—as Commander Antilles had temporarily rechristened the Rogues as Red Squadron to honor the unit that had faced the first Death Star at Yavin—Santage was one of the handful of Rebel pilots to enter the superstructure of the Death Star with the intention of destroying the reactor core. At the rear of the Rebel fighter formation, Santage's X-wing was hit by laser cannon fire from a pursuing TIE fighter; the snubfighter was destroyed, and Santage was killed. |
[edit] Lancer Brunou Lancer Brunou was a Human male professor of archaeology at the University of Byblos during the Galactic Civil War. Loyal to the Galactic Empire, Brunou despaired for the stability of the galaxy following the death of Emperor Palpatine at the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY. Feeling helpless that he could not help in restoring order, he resigned from his post and wandered the Outer Rim Territories, visiting archaeological digs. During his travels, he heard that Moff Kentor Sarne was attempting to forge a new empire from his capital planet of Kal'Shebbol in the Kathol sector. Brunou traveled to Kal'Shebbol and joined the Moff's forces. Welcomed by the Moff, Brunou was initially assigned to study examples of the mysterious DarkStryder technology. However, he was quickly reassigned by Sarne to lead science team MS-133 on a mission to the planet Aaris III. Brunou's objectives were to investigate a series of ruins on the planet that belonged to a long-dead civilization, with particular emphasis on what caused the society's destruction. Brunou and his team established a base camp and began excavating the ruins. On day 49 of the expedition, they discovered the Plaque of Victory—a powerful artifact that fed off organic life forces and compelled them to destroy each other—although they were unaware of its true nature. As the influence of the Plaque began to take hold of the members of the science team, they began to experience paranoid delusions and feelings of being watched and spied on. When the members of the team began to turn on each other, Brunou—believing that they were under attack from hostile natives—sought to escape the planet. However, the destruction of their shuttle hampered his plans, and he was forced to send a distress signal to Kal'Shebbol in the hopes of a rescue. However, during his time on Aaris III, Kal'Shebbol had fallen to New Republic forces, and the transmission was intercepted by the crew of the CR90 corvette FarStar. Responding to the distress call, they rescued Brunou and his research assistant, Solla Deremot, the last survivors of the team. However, Brunou had brought the Plaque of Victory aboard the FarStar, and it began to exert its influence over the crew. Fortunately for the FarStar's crew, personnel on the corvette figured out that the Plaque was responsible for the change in the behavior of the crew, and jettisoned it out of an airlock. |
[edit] Horton Salm Horton Salm was a Human male from the planet Norval II in the Calaron sector of the Outer Rim Territories who was a military officer of the Alliance to Restore the Republic and its successor, the New Republic. An accomplished pilot, leader, and training commander, he preferred to fly Koensayr Manufacturing BTL Y-wing starfighters over newer models, as he felt that the older craft were more reliable and would get him home in one piece. Salm led the Alliance's Gray Squadron at the Battle of Endor, surviving the run through the second Death Star's superstructure. Salm continued to command combat units, leading Aggressor Wing through the Battle of Brentaal IV six months after Endor, an engagement that saw him promoted to the rank of general. Salm later led the Aggressors during the First Battle of Ciutric IV. By 6.5 ABY, Salm was assigned to the New Republic's Folor Base, training several new starfighter squadrons, including the reformed Rogue Squadron and his own Defender Wing. Despite clashes with Commander Wedge Antilles over Rogue Squadron's lack of discipline, and the presence of Tycho Celchu—a suspected sleeper agent of the Galactic Empire—as the unit's executive officer, Salm and his Defender Wing worked effectively with Rogue Squadron at the Battle of Vladet and the First Battle of Borleias. Salm was also one of the officers responsible for devising the plan that would eventually cause the planet Borleias to fall to the New Republic. Following the liberation of the galactic capital, Coruscant, Salm served as a judge presiding over the trial of Tycho Celchu. Celchu had been charged with treason and the murder of Rogue Squadron pilot Corran Horn during the operation to capture Coruscant. Salm was surprised to learn that Horn was in fact not dead, but had been captured by Director Ysanne Isard, the ruler of the Empire, and interred aboard the Super Star Destroyer Lusankya. Briefly resuming training duties, Salm was based at the Borleias starfighter training base before returning to active combat with a B-wing assault group for the New Republic's campaign against the Ciutric Hegemony, a former Imperial faction, in 9 ABY. |
[edit] JutkaJutka was a male Tuhgri from the moon Dayark in the Kathol Outback. In 8 ABY, he was commander of a small starship. En route to the planet Danoor in the Nah'Malis system, Jutka's ship was forced to make an emergency maneuver when an Aing-Tii Sanhedrim ship dropped out of hyperspace in front of them. Skimming through an energy tendril from the nearby Kathol Rift—a dense gas cloud fraught with lightstorms—the ship's controls were completely ionized, forcing the eight-being crew to abandon ship in a single escape pod. Drifting in an escape pod, Jutka detected a faint energy reading in the Duhrib Belt, an asteroid field orbiting between the system's fourth and fifth planets. Tracking the signal, the Tuhgri discovered a damaged mining drone that Jutka hoped could be used to signal their homeworld, or attract rescuers to their plight. During their repair operations, the Tuhgri met representatives from the crew of the FarStar, a New Republic vessel, who were engaged in recovering the drone for the government of Danoor. Working together, they salvaged the drone, and Jutka and his crew escaped the asteroid. Eleven years later, in 19 ABY, Jutka served the Kathol Republic as a general and commander of its armed forces. Following a skirmish between Talon Karrde's Wild Karrde and Corsair-class assault starfighters belonging to the Rodian pirate Rei'Kas in the Episol system, Jutka met with Karrde. He warned the smuggler that the Kathol Republic wanted no part in the war between Rei'Kas and Crev Bombaasa—under whose protection Karrde was flying—and that the Rodian would not stop hunting Karrde while he was in his territory. |
[edit] Delevar Corporal Delevar was a Human male who served with the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. Trained as a medic and a scout, he served with General Crix Madine's SpecForces. In 3 ABY, he was part of the force assigned to the Alliance High Command's Echo Base on the ice planet Hoth. Surviving the Battle of Hoth, Delevar regrouped with the Alliance Fleet, and remained stationed with the armada for a year. In 4 ABY, the Alliance learned that the Galactic Empire was constructing a second Death Star in orbit of the forest moon of Endor, and decided to strike at the superweapon while it was still being built. However, the half-completed battlestation was protected by an energy shield generated from a facility on the surface of the moon. A strike team was organized to infiltrate the moon, and deactivate the shield generator. Delevar volunteered to be part of the team; although he was considered to be a rookie by Major Bren Derlin, the unit commander, he was highly recommended by General Madine. Delevar attended the briefing aboard the Alliance flagship Home One, during which Madine laid out the intended plan of attack, and he later traveled to Endor on board the stolen Imperial Lambda-class T-4a shuttle Tydirium. Following an encounter with an Imperial scout trooper patrol, Delevar and the strike team separated from the command crew led by the former smuggler, General Han Solo. Following orders to rendezvous with the general at 0300, the strike team avoided Imperial patrols until they encountered an All Terrain Scout Transport while making camp for the night. Delevar managed to subdue the walker with a clean shot into its open cockpit with a smoke canister fired from a Caspel launcher that forced the crew to abandon the vehicle. Delevar then participated in the ground engagement of the Battle of Endor, which saw the destruction of the shield generator that subsequently allowed Alliance starfighters to destroy the Death Star. |
[edit] Battle of Brentaal IV (Galactic Civil War) The Battle of Brentaal IV was one of the first major engagements between the New Republic and the Galactic Empire, approximately six months after the Battle of Endor. With the Core Worlds Recopia and Ralltiir supporting the New Republic, the Provisional Council began to look towards liberating more of the Core, with an eye towards eventually taking Coruscant itself. Following a reconnaissance by Rogue Squadron, the planet Brentaal IV was chosen as a target of the Republic's offensive. The Empire, headed by Imperial Grand Vizier Sate Pestage, struggled to hold itself together, threatened both by internal discontent and the fragmenting of their military force into individual warlord holdings. To appease the Cabal, a wealthy and politically connected faction whose members all had investments on the world, Pestage vowed to hold Brentaal IV at all costs. The New Republic hit the world in force, with Admiral Ackbar in command of the task force, supported by Rogue Squadron and Aggressor Wing. Due to tactical ineptness on the part of Imperial Admiral Lon Isoto, the Republic forces were able to successfully take the Brentaal IV moonbase. Further operations allowed the Republic forces to establish a presence on the planet itself, in the city of Oradin, although at a cost—the 181st Imperial Fighter Group, led by Colonel Baron Soontir Fel, had reinforced Brentaal IV. Despite their presence, however, it became clear that Brentaal IV was lost to the New Republic. Director of Imperial Intelligence Ysanne Isard ordered an evacuation of Brentaal IV, sending ships from Coruscant to rescue the wealthy and influential citizens. Fearing that the evacuation would strip Brentaal of its wealth, New Republic forces mobilized to stop the escape. During the battle, Baron Fel was captured by New Republic forces, and Brentaal IV came under firm New Republic control with the withdrawal of Imperial forces. The fallout from the loss of Brentaal IV further split the political leaders of the Empire, mainly due to the plotting of Director Isard. During the course of the Brentaal campaign, she had successfully isolated Pestage and the Cabal from one another, and convinced each party that the other was ultimately to blame for the loss of the planet. Pestage, aware that Isard coveted the throne for herself, began to seek ways to save himself—including dealing with the New Republic—while the Cabal began to plot Pestage's overthrow. For the New Republic, the liberation of the planet was a significant tactical victory that strengthened their foothold in the Core, and even enlisted the services of Baron Fel, who defected to the Republic in exchange for assistance in locating his wife. |
[edit] Treis Sinde Master Treis Sinde was a Human male Imperial Knight who served Emperor Roan Fel and his Empire-in-exile in 137 ABY. Partnered with Master Sigel Dare, he was assigned to sabotage the new Advanced Star Destroyer Imperious nearing completion in the shipyard over Dac in order to keep it out of the hands of Darth Krayt's Sith Empire. After successfully planting explosives on board, they discovered that the vessel had been stolen by Admiral Gar Stazi of the Galactic Alliance. Deciding to inform Stazi of the explosives, Sinde and Dare rescued Monia Gahan, a Mon Calamari pilot from Rogue Squadron. Together, they rescued other Alliance captives from the recent battle, and sought to steal a shuttle to escape the planet and join up with the Alliance fleet. As they prepared to depart, the Quarren Sith Lord Darth Azard tried to stop them. Sinde engaged the Sith Lord in combat, giving Dare, Gahan and the Alliance pilots time to escape. Using an explosion caused by Dare during the shuttle's escape, Sinde retreated from his fight with Azard, going underground and joining a Mon Calamari resistance group that had formed in the wake of Krayt's proclaimed genocide against them. Allying with the Mon Calamari Rangers, Sinde assisted them by advising them on military tactics and strategies, and helping them defend the Mon Calamari refugees who had taken refuge on the planet's ocean floor. After several months, Sinde was able to contact Emperor Fel on Bastion, and was ordered to return as soon as possible to train new Imperial Knights. Despite feeling that his work on Dac was crucial, he was prepared to obey his Liege's orders. However, at the same time, the Sith scientist Vul Isen created a Sea Leviathan to hunt down the Mon Calamari refugees and suck them dry of their life-energies. When word of its existence reached Sinde, he initially counseled the Rangers to leave it alone and sacrifice the refugees to safeguard the few Ranger units operated on the planet. When Captain Tanquar, leader of the Rangers, made it clear that would not happen, Sinde devised a plan to destroy the Leviathan. While the Rangers attacked Isen's AT-AT Swimmer that was riding herd on the creature, Sinde took command of a number of Devilsquids, six tentacled creatures that hunted Mon Calamari. Sinde directed them to attack the Leviathan, and they dragged it into the depths of the Devil's Crevasse, where the Devilsquids made their home. Returning to Ranger Grotto, Sinde reported to Fel that obtaining transport off the planet was impossible. Fel told the Knight to return when the situation was merely difficult, not impossible. |
[edit] Jaius Yorub Jaius Yorub was a male Sullustan who served in the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. A naval officer, he was captain of the Scythe-class battle cruiser Indomitable during the Sith-Imperial War of 127–130 ABY. The Indomitable served as the flagship of the Galactic Alliance Core Fleet, under the command of Admiral Gar Stazi. During the final engagement of the Sith-Imperial War—the Battle of Caamas in 130 ABY—Stazi took elements of the Core Fleet and began a resistance against the combined forces of the Fel Empire and the One Sith rather than surrender. Yorub accompanied the admiral into self-imposed exile. Over the course of the next seven years, Yorub served Stazi as an aide and confidante while the Core Fleet continued to embody the ideals of the Galactic Alliance. In 137 ABY, Yorub and Stazi planned the theft of the Imperious, the prototype vessel of the new Imperious-class Star Destroyer class, being constructed at the shipyards orbiting the planet Dac. During the subsequent engagement, the Indomitable suffered crippling damage and Yorub was injured. Although Stazi was prepared to sacrifice himself in a suicide attack—by crashing the Indomitable into the shipyards—Yorub knew that the Alliance could not survive without the Duros admiral. He ordered Lieutenant Jhoram Bey, commander of the elite Rogue Squadron, to evacuate the admiral from the Indomitable, which the Weequay achieved by striking Stazi and rendering him unconscious. With Stazi clear of the Indomitable, Yorub guided the vessel into the shipyards, sacrificing his own life by triggering an explosion that destroyed the ship and a third of the docks. |
[edit] Mist Mist was a Human female bounty hunter operating during the early years of the New Republic. Born Shella Inion on the planet Kal'Shebbol, she was a minor actress who disappeared from public view after the death of her family and her own partial disfigurement following a suspected Rebel attack on her hometown. Moff Kentor Sarne, the Imperial warlord controlling Kal'Shebbol, had planned and staged the attack to further his own agenda, and to reduce popular support for the Rebel Alliance. Inion reinvented herself as the bounty hunter known only as Mist, utilizing a highly modified suit of Krail Armory's Model 1010 Photo-reactive Personal Armor to disguise both her appearance and gender. Mist was regarded as a capable individual, and she allied herself with Moff Sarne, blaming the Rebellion for the death of her family. When the planet Kal'Shebbol was taken by the New Republic in 8 ABY, Mist was off-planet on an assignment, and was subsequently separated from Sarne. The Moff managed to escape his capital with the bulk of his fleet, and Mist spent several weeks trying to regroup with him and his forces, tracking his movements through the Kathol sector and the Kathol Outback. Eventually succeeding, she led several military missions that encountered the crew of the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar, which was on a mission to locate Sarne. Mist traveled with Sarne to the planet Kathol, and defended him throughout the Battle of DarkStryder's Fortress, escaping with him to the hyperspace launch gate in orbit around the planet. Sarne planned to activate the launch gate and destroy the New Republic forces battling his own ships in orbit of the planet as part of his plan to reconquer the Kathol sector. Wounded during the engagement, Mist was captured by members of the FarStar's crew. Jessa Dajus, a member of the FarStar crew and a former Intelligence officer in Sarne's Imperial regime, told her that the attack that had claimed the lives of her family had actually been planned and staged by the Moff to incriminate the Rebels. Enraged at having been lied to, Mist switched her allegiances and assisted the crew of the FarStar in defeating Sarne. |
[edit] Nishr Taskforce The Nishr Taskforce was a unit of Alliance Special Forces assembled in 0 ABY for the Nishr Campaign, a series of battles fought on the planet Nishr during the Galactic Civil War. Comprised of three platoons of Wilderness Fighters and a single platoon of Pathfinders, the unit was commanded by Major Fisk Csino and styled as a light-armor company, employing numerous ground vehicles to keep the company on the move. Created in response to the forceful suppression of the native Nish by Imperial forces on Nishr, the Nishr Taskforce was assigned to harass the local garrison and encourage the local population to stage a guerrilla-style rebellion. Operating out of several hidden bases, the company—in concert with local forces from the Nishr Resistance—eliminated the Imperial garrison's mobile elements. This forced the Imperials to heavily defend their command base and effectively concede control of the countryside and plains to the Rebel force. As the campaign carried on, Major Csino's request for a unit of Infiltrator commandos to directly assault the garrison's command center was denied. Instead, the Alliance initiated Operation Shadowplay, designed to fool the Imperial planetary commander, Governor-General Vin Kollis, into thinking that the unit had been reinforced with Infiltrators, when in reality they had not been. |
[edit] Aaris III Aaris III was a planet located in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Covered in jungle, it was connected to the worlds of Charis, Kolatill and Brolsam via hyperlanes. Aaris III was the homeworld of the Aaris species, a race of reptilian humanoids whose society flourished several thousand years before the Galactic Civil War. Their civilization was almost totally destroyed after a destructive civil war, perpetrated by the Plaque of Victory, an inanimate but sentient relic that could manipulate the feelings of those around it, turning them suspicious, violent and homicidal. The Aaris's cities fell into ruin and were reclaimed by the jungle, and their primitive descendants inhabited the hidden ruins. Four years after the death of Emperor Palpatine at Endor, Aaris III came to the interest of Moff Kentor Sarne, an Imperial warlord who ruled the Kathol sector following the fragmentation of the Empire. He dispatched a science team to the planet under the command of Professor Lancer Brunou to investigate the ruins. While on the surface, the team uncovered the Plaque of Victory, and its influence slowly began to turn the team against one another. Believing that they were being attacked by unseen hostiles, Professor Brunou sent out a distress call to Sarne's capital on Kal'Shebbol, hoping for rescue. After a few days, only three members of the team were left. Brunou's distress signal was intercepted by the FarStar, a New Republic CR90 corvette. During the time that the science team had been on Aaris III, Kal'Shebbol had fallen to the New Republic. The commander of the FarStar, Captain Kaiya Adrimetrum, diverted to Aaris III to investigate the science team's presence on the world and render aid. During rescue operations, the crew of the FarStar came under the influence of the Plaque of Victory after it was brought aboard by one of the survivors. Unlike the science team, however, they soon realized the cause of the negative feelings running through the ship and jettisoned the artifact into space. |
[edit] Operation HammerblowOperation Hammerblow was the New Republic Fifth Fleet's live-fire operational readiness exercise. The construction of the Fifth Fleet had been authorized by the New Republic Senate on Supreme Commander Admiral Ackbar's assurances that it was needed to continue the war against the remnants of the Galactic Empire. The Dornean, General Etahn A'baht, was placed in command of the Fifth, and he oversaw the training of the fleet. The final test was a live fire exercise against a simulated target. Although the Fifth would only face drones and computers simulations, the danger to the participating personnel was very real. The planet Bessimir, located fifteen parsecs from Coruscant was chosen as the target, and General A'baht devised an assault plan. The proceedings were observed by high ranking members of the New Republic in the New Republic Defense Force headquarters on Coruscant, including Admiral Ackbar, Chief of State Leia Organa Solo, and the Defense Council. The Fifth engaged the defenses of Bessimir; A'baht effectively used the ships and resources under his command to neutralize the enemy targets. The main weapon used in the defense, a massive hypervelocity cannon capable of firing one hundred and twenty slugs per minute, was taken out by a squadron of new Koensayr Manufacturing BTL-S8 K-wing assault starfighters. The operation was successful, but not without casualties. Despite the loss of one ship, the Ahazi, the Fifth was declared operational following the exercise. |
[edit] Kal'Shebbol Kal'Shebbol was the primary planet of the Kal'Shebbol system, in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Kal'Shebbol was located on the Trition Trade Route, the hyperlane that connected the major worlds of the sector to the nearby Minos Cluster. Settled around 392 BBY by escaped Twi'lek slaves from Ryloth, Kal'Shebbol grew from a small settlement into a major trading world only fifty years after its initial colonization as sizable Human and alien communities emigrated to the planet in search of a fresh start. Once the Kathol sector entered the Galactic Republic, Kal'Shebbol, being the closest planet to Republic space, was appointed as the sector capital. With the rise of the Galactic Empire, Kal'Shebbol fell under its auspices. Moff Kentor Sarne was appointed as governor of the Kathol sector in 2 BBY and made Kal'Shebbol his capital. His edicts were oppressive, and the people of Kal'Shebbol suffered under his rule as industry was nationalized and travel to and from the planet was severely restricted. With the death of Emperor Palpatine during the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY and the subsequent breakdown of Imperial authority, Sarne withdrew his sector from the Empire, setting up his own personal fiefdom with Kal'Shebbol as its capital. In 8 ABY, a New Republic task force was sent to liberate Kal'Shebbol from Sarne's control. Elements of Page's Commandos—the New Republic's elite commando team—infiltrated the planet with the intention of dropping Kal'Shebbol's defensive shield and capturing Sarne. While the commandos succeeded in lowering the shield, allowing New Republic forces to capture the planet, Sarne managed to escape into the Kathol sector with the majority of his military forces. The New Republic established a new administration to run the planet, appointing an Elomin named Monjai as governor to appease the large alien communities residing on the world. |
[edit] Octa Ramis Octa Ramis was a female Human Jedi, originally from the planet Chandrila. Found to be Force-sensitive, Ramis joined the Jedi Order that had been established by Luke Skywalker. Trained to knighthood by Kam and Tionne Solusar, Ramis fought in the Yuuzhan Vong War, a galaxy-spanning conflict between the major galactic powers and the invading extra-galactic Yuuzhan Vong. Early in the war, Ramis lost two of her closest companions; her former lover Miko Reglia, and the Twi'lek Jedi Daeshara'cor. Supportive of Jedi Master Kyp Durron's stance that the Jedi should take a proactive role in the conflict, Ramis was on the front lines of the war, serving at several major battles that included the battle of Mon Calamari and both battles of Coruscant. Following the war, Ramis was elevated to the rank of Jedi Master. She served the Order with diligence throughout the Dark Nest Crisis, which saw the insectoid Killik colonies wage war against the Chiss Ascendancy and, later, the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances. She participated in the rescue of Master Skywalker and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, from a Killik nest on the moon Kr in the Gyuel system alongside several other Jedi Masters during the conflict. Master Ramis continued to serve the Order during the Second Galactic Civil War, being a member of the Jedi Coalition that opposed Jacen Solo's usurping of the Galactic Alliance until he was finally deposed by his own sister. At some point, she was appointed to a position on the Jedi Masters' Council. In 43 ABY, Ramis took on Seha Dorvald as an apprentice. During this time, Ramis played a part in the capture of Valin Horn, son of Jedi Master Corran Horn, who was suffering from a mental breakdown. She also volunteered to be the focus of a holo-documentary that was hoped to show the Jedi in a more positive light. |
[edit] Radd MinkerRadd Minker was a male Brubb Jedi Knight serving in the New Jedi Order in 43 ABY. Minker was present in the Jedi Archives of the Jedi Temple on the galactic capital of Coruscant when Jysella Horn, daughter of Jedi Master Corran Horn and Mirax Terrik Horn, suffered a mental breakdown that caused her to view all her fellow Jedi as impostors. Minker, along with Falleen Jedi Natua Wan, attempted to stop her from fleeing the temple, but Horn's desperation allowed her to escape, although she was captured by Galactic Alliance Security shortly thereafter. Several days later, Minker was escorting the Solo family to the Coruscant Livestock Exchange and Exhibition with Wan when the Falleen Jedi underwent the same mental breakdown that Jysella Horn had suffered. Wan caused panic and chaos at the Exhibition, and Minker was instrumental in subduing the rogue Jedi Knight. |

 [edit] Noell Ciro Noell Ciro was a Human male from the planet Dolomar. Along with his brother, Keleman, he joined one of his homeworld's resistance groups and assisted in the liberation of the planet from Imperial forces. Seeing a way to leave his home planet, he joined the New Republic military at the same time as his elder sibling. Ciro underwent training as a starfighter pilot, and fought in several campaigns against Imperial forces before being assigned to the task force to liberate the planet Kal'Shebbol. Following Moff Kentor Sarne's flight from Kal'Shebbol, Ciro was assigned to the FarStar mission, which was charged with tracking down the rogue warlord and neutralizing any threat he posed. He was transferred at the behest of his brother, who was commanding the mission, as was part of the ship's starfighter complement. Shortly after the beginning of the mission, Ciro participated in the Battle of Kolatill, a conflict against forces loyal to Moff Sarne where the young pilot lost his life. |
[edit] Vegath Tist Vegath Tist was a salt-addicted male Arcona and an outcast from his family. A speculator, Tist spent much of his life traveling the galaxy dabbling in get-rich schemes and questionable endeavors in an effort to make his fortune and keep himself supplied with salt. Trading on his skills as a miner, he eventually made his way to Kal'Shebbol. Shortly after the liberation of the planet by New Republic forces in 8 ABY, he signed onto the crew of the FarStar as a mineralogist. The ship was on a mission to track down the former ruler of Kal'Shebbol, Moff Kentor Sarne, and neutralize the threat he posed to the region. Tist remained on the ship, and participated in the Battle of Kathol, helping to liberate the planet from its ruler, the bio-engineered insectoid known as the DarkStryder. He stayed on the planet following the conflict, hoping to learn a Ta-Ree ability to cure him of his salt addiction. |
[edit] Varel DeVay Varel DeVay was a Human female xenobiologist from the Core. Growing up in a pampered environment, DeVay enjoyed the finest education, and worked for several research companies throughout the galaxy. Offered a new job on the planet Kal'Shebbol, she was pressured into working on biological weapons for the Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne. She was relieved of her service to him when the New Republic liberated the planet in 8 ABY, and signed on as a member of the crew of the FarStar which had been charged with tracking down the rogue Moff after his flight from Kal'Shebbol. DeVay was assigned to duties in the ship's hydroponics bay, and was later a member of the landing party to the planet Binaros. The party had inadvertently brought back the spores of a feeder plant from the surface, and as it grew, the plant began to cause malfunctions within the ship's systems. DeVay was attacked by the plant's mobile feeders, and was instrumental in developing a countermeasure that neutralized the threat. |
[edit] "Gammer" Firdaaz "Gammer" Firdaaz was a Human male scout from the planet Socorro who spent the majority of his life exploring other worlds. An alcoholic, Firdaaz spent a lot of his time drunk, but had a wealth of knowledge and survival skills. In 8 ABY, Firdaaz found himself on Kal'Shebbol, and subsequently signed onto the crew of the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar, which had been assigned to track down the Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne. Sarne had fled Kal'Shebbol when the New Republic liberated the planet, taking the majority of his fleet with him. However, unlike many other members of the crew, Firdaaz had no personal stake in the mission—he simply wanted to visit as many planets as possible before he died. Firdaaz served on the FarStar until the ship reached the planet known as Demonsgate on the edge of the Kathol Rift. He volunteered to remain on the planet to maintain the communications link known as the Lifeline Project, which was the corvette's only means of contacting New Republic forces. |
[edit] Battle of Kolatill The Battle of Kolatill was a small engagement fought in 8 ABY between the combined forces of the New Republic and the Kolatill Defense Force, and the Imperial escort carrier Kathol Protector. The Imperial vessel, allied to the warlord Moff Kentor Sarne, assaulted the planet Kolatill for the second time in retaliation for the overthrow of their Imperial governor in the wake of the liberation of Kal'Shebbol. The escort carrier used TIE bombers armed with pathogenic bombs to assault the planet, but the joint effort of the Kolatill Defense Force and the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar managed to drive off the attackers. |
[edit] Dasha Defano Dasha Defano was a female Wroonian from the planet Wroona. An accomplished pilot, Defano served with a Wroonian privateer gang before joining the Rebel Alliance shortly before the Battle of Endor as an X-wing pilot. Defano continued to serve with the military when the Alliance became the New Republic, and was part of the task force charged with the liberation of the planet Kal'Shebbol. Following the flight of the Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne from the planet, Defano was transferred to the CR90 corvette FarStar, which was assigned to track down the rogue Imperial. Defano served as part of the starfighter complement aboard the vessel for several months, participating in several missions, including the Battle of Kathol, an engagement marking the end of the threat posed by Moff Sarne. |
[edit] Wankle Captain Wankle was a Human male who served in the Imperial Navy during the Galactic Civil War. He commanded an Imperial-class Star Destroyer and was stationed near the planet Sullust. Sometime during the Galactic Civil War, Wankle crossed paths with the Sullustan, Captain Bungo Bung, and confiscated a large amount of Bantha Breakfast Biscuits from him. Several weeks later, in retailiation for his action, Captain Bung delivered a case of the foodstuff to him that had been contaminated, and was on the verge of mutating into a ravenous lifeform known as a Giant Amorphous Bantha Breakfast Biscuit. |
[edit] Chubby Gundark The Chubby Gundark was a SoroSuub Transport Systems Nyubba-class cargo barge driver owned and operated by SoroSuub Corporation during the Galactic Civil War. Assigned to the Corporation's Transport and Supply Division, the vessel was captained by the Sullustan Bungo Bung. Sometime during the Galactic Civil War, the Chubby Gundark became the only vessel to make the Great Bantha Breakfast Biscuit Run between Sullust and Gastrula. During its final run, the vessel was almost destroyed by a mutant lifeform known as an Giant Amorphous Bantha Breakfast Biscuit, but was saved by the quick reactions of Captain Bung. |
[edit] Edly "Pot-Shot" Fasalk Edly "Pot-Shot" Fasalk was a male Human gunner who claimed to have had a major role in several of the Alliance to Restore the Republic's most historical events. In reality, he was fast-talking fantasist who delighted in telling tall tales and wild stories about himself. In 8 ABY, Fasalk was on Kal'Shebbol when the New Republic liberated the planet from the Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne. However, Sarne managed to escape from New Republic forces, and the CR90 corvette FarStar was tasked with the mission to track him down. Recruiting from Kal'Shebbol's civilian population to crew the vessel, Fasalk volunteered and accompanied the ship as one of its gunners. |
[edit] Unda Lagor Unda Lagor was a male Quara Aqualish who enjoyed violence, murder, and destruction. After serving with a mercenary group, he went on a wild killing spree through a starport on the planet Kal'Shebbol, massacring civilians and Imperial soldiers alike. Lagor was imprisoned by the ruler of the planet, Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne, and kept in the detention cells of the Imperial headquarters. Freed by the New Republic's assault on the planet in 8 ABY, Lagor joined the crew of the FarStar. The CR90 corvette had been tasked with tracking down Moff Sarne after he had fled his capital following the liberation of the planet, and Lagor wanted revenge on him and any other Imperial he encountered. Lagor was assigned to a fire support role, and attempted to use his position to accompany landing parties so he could indulge in his love of violence. |
[edit] MonjaiMonjai was a female Elomin who served the New Republic. Following the liberation of the planet Kal'Shebbol in 8 ABY, Monjai was appointed to the post of Governor since it was felt that she could better relate to the large non-Human population on the planet. Monjai's assignment was welcomed by the alien community, and she immediately set about rebuilding the damaged world and crafting some sort of local defense force to ensure the planet's security. Several months later, Monjai greeted the returning crew of the CR90 corvette FarStar after their lengthy mission to track down the former Imperial ruler of Kal'Shebbol, Moff Kentor Sarne. |
[edit] T'achak T'andar T'achak T'andar was a male Chadra-Fan with a passion for speed and racing. Originally a design engineer, T'andar found the work boring and became a test pilot for prototype airspeeders and landspeeders. He was known to push vehicles to their very limits in order to test them thoroughly, but his penchant for joyriding and racing the prototypes—along with gambling on the result—meant that he could not keep in steady employment. T'andar joined the New Republic, and despite their best efforts to place him in a role where he could not get into trouble, he was eventually transferred to Page's Commandos as a support operative. Following the liberation of Kal'Shebbol in 8 ABY, T'andar was transferred to the CR90 corvette FarStar to serve as its repulsorlift chief. The ship had been assigned to track down the rogue Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne, who had fled from Kal'Shebbol with the majority of his forces in the wake of the New Republic's assault on the planet. |
[edit] Lon BennorLon Bennor was a Human male who lived in the city of Domaz on the planet Kolatill located within the Kathol sector. In 8 ABY, Domaz was bombed by TIE bombers from the Imperial escort carrier Kathol Protector. The attack was in retaliation for the population of Kolatill overthrowing their Imperial governor in the wake of the New Republic's liberation of the nearby planet of Kal'Shebbol. With the city devastated, Bennor began to organize relief efforts from a park that had been converted into an emergency aid station. He accepted help from the crew of the New Republic vessel FarStar—who had responded to a distress call from the planet—in providing medical assistance and enlisted their services to retrieve more supplies from a bombed-out hospital. |
[edit] TrenTren was a middle-aged Human male and citizen of Domaz on the planet of Kolatill in the Kathol sector. In 8 ABY, Domaz was attacked by TIE bombers deployed from the Imperial escort carrier Kathol Protector in retaliation for the population's overthrow of their Imperial governor following the New Republic's successful liberation of the sector capital, Kal'Shebbol. In the wake of the bombing, Tren organized the food distribution efforts in the city and requested assistance from the crew of the FarStar—a New Republic vessel that had answered a distress call from the planet—in delivering food to neighborhoods on the outskirts of the city. |
[edit] KauseKause was a Human male from the planet of Kolatill located within the Kathol sector. He served as a councilor on the Kolatill Council, until the entire governing body was arrested and imprisoned by the newly appointed Imperial Governor Tetrum in 0 ABY. Kause remained in prison until 8 ABY, when the planetary population rose up and overthrew Tetrum following the New Republic's successful liberation of the sector capital, Kal'Shebbol. Upon his release, he—along with the other two surviving Council members—was asked to reconstitute the Council and lead Kolatill, to which they agreed. Shortly after assuming power, the capital city of Domaz was attacked by TIE bombers deployed from the Imperial escort carrier Kathol Protector in retaliation for their act of defiance. With the city in ruins, the Council requested aid from the New Republic. The CR90 corvette FarStar was the first ship to attend the planet, and Kause served as the primary contact for the vessel's representatives when they were on the surface. He insisted on meeting with the FarStar's commander, Captain Keleman Ciro, on the surface of the planet to show solidarity to the population of Kolatill. While en route to meeting with Kause, Ciro was captured by the Empire when the Kathol Protector returned to strike at the planet a second time. Following the successful defense of the planet, Kause attended a memorial ceremony to honor the fallen. |
[edit] TetrumTetrum was a Human male who served the Galactic Empire. In 0 ABY, he served under Moff Kentor Sarne in the Kathol sector, and was appointed as governor of the planet Kolatill. Declaring martial law and imprisoning the local government, the Kolatill Council, he ordered all repulsorlift manufacturing companies to produce equipment for Moff Sarne's forces. Tetrum ruled the world for eight years, until he was imprisoned following an uprising staged by the local populace. The population of Kolatill had learned of the New Republic's successful liberation of the sector capital Kal'Shebbol—an action that also sent Moff Sarne fleeing deep into the sector—and had resolved to rid themselves of Imperial rule and declare their allegiance to the new galactic government. |
[edit] Asagov RaiderThe Asagov Raider, formerly known as the Cekbar Servant, was a Corellian Engineering Corporation Action IV transport operating during the early years of the New Republic. Originally a merchant vessel registered to Nalroni businessmen on the trading world of Celanon, the vessel was captured by the Saurton pirate Miktiss around 7 ABY. Miktiss had the vessel heavily modified and renamed as the Asagov Raider, using the vessel as his flagship and as the command base of the Des'maric Pirates. The vessel was a mobile headquarters for the organization while they operated in the Kathol sector in 8 ABY. |
[edit] Kolig Kolig was a male Human bounty hunter and criminal. Serving as the unofficial leader of the bounty hunter group known as Qulok's Fist, he was also the pilot and owner of the organization's vessel, the Steel Fist. Presentable and affable, Kolig took the lead in organizing operations, and often went undercover to investigate and appraise potential targets. While working in the Kathol sector around 8 ABY, Kolig and Qulok's Fist worked for Moff Kentor Sarne, a local Imperial warlord. They were employed to tail the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar, which had been assigned to track Sarne following his flight from the sector capital of Kal'Shebbol due to its liberation by New Republic forces. Eventually, Kolig and the group would engage the corvette in the Shintel system. |
[edit] Steel Fist The Steel Fist was a heavily modified Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1300 light freighter owned and operated by the bounty hunter Kolig during the early years of the New Republic. The craft also served as the main vessel and command base of Qulok's Fist, a small group of criminals who engaged in bounty hunting, smuggling, slavery and mercenary work. The ship was used by the gang throughout the Outer Rim Territories, the Minos Cluster, and the Kathol sector. |
[edit] Kyli Ned'Ix Kyli Ned'Ix was a male personality Verpine adventurer and technician. Able to repair or modify almost any type of equipment, Ned'Ix found himself on the planet Kal'Shebbol in the Kathol sector in 8 ABY. Following the liberation of the world by the New Republic, Ned'Ix attempted to join the crew of the CR90 corvette FarStar. The FarStar was tasked with a mission to track down the rogue Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne, who had fled from Kal'Shebbol with his forces. Despite Ned'Ix's superior technical skills, the command crew of the corvette felt that his habit of jury-rigging equipment was actually more of a danger than an asset and turned him down. Undaunted, Ned'Ix repaired and modified a Ghtroc Industries Class 720 freighter. Naming it the "Fxz'Et," he loaded the ship with spare parts and junk and headed out after the FarStar, determined to help the expedition in any way he could. |
[edit] Fxz'Et The Fxz'Et was a Ghtroc Industries Class 720 freighter that had been abandoned on the planet Kal'Shebbol in the Kathol sector prior to 8 ABY. Recovered by the Verpine Kyli Ned'Ix, the vessel was heavily modified and enhanced using spare junk components. Ned'Ix used the vessel to tail the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar during its expedition to find Moff Kentor Sarne, an Imperial warlord who had fled Kal'Shebbol following its liberation by the New Republic. |
[edit] Sufar Sufar was a male Human from a Corellian colony world. An outlaw, he was exiled from his home in 2 BBY for committing several murders. On the run from Imperial bounty hunters, he was rescued by Qulok's Fist, a small band of criminals whose operations included bounty hunting, smuggling, slavery, and mercenary work. After killing the hunters who had pursued him, Sufar and Qulok's Fist operated throughout the Outer Rim Territories, the Minos Cluster, and the Kathol sector. The group worked occasionally for Moff Kentor Sarne, the Imperial warlord of the Kathol sector, and engaged the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar in battle in the Shintel system at his request. |
[edit] Padak Padak was a male Human bounty hunter who utilized a customized suit of armor. Part of the Qulok's Fist bounty hunter gang, Padak worked with them in slavery, smuggling, and mercenary operations throughout the Outer Rim Territories, the Minos Cluster, and the Kathol sector. In 8 ABY, Padak assisted the group in their mission to tail the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar on the orders of Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne, former warlord of the Kathol sector, and engaged the vessel in battle in the Shintel system. |
[edit] Veild-danol Veild-danol was a male Yarkora independent merchant who operated a regular trading route on the edges of the Kathol sector in the Outer Rim Territories during the early years of the New Republic. For many years, he was the only regular source of contact between a large amount of planets and the outside galaxy, and he amassed a great deal of knowledge about the Kathol sector. A collector of religious artifacts, he occasionally used his standing amongst local communities to acquire new pieces for his collection. |
[edit] Brolsam Brolsam was a planet within the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. An agriworld, it was located on a branch off the Trition Trade Route, between the sector capital Kal'Shebbol and Torize. Although its distance from the sector's major trade route hampered its economic growth, Brolsam developed an industry based primarily around agriculture due to the presence of a significant community of Fefze swarms. The planet also gained a reputation as an artist's retreat. In 8 ABY, the planet was on the brink of civil war following the disintegration of Imperial authority in the sector after the liberation of Kal'Shebbol by New Republic forces. |
[edit] Jarell Jarells were a humanoid species native to the planet Oon Tien in the Kathol sector. They developed a primitive society on their homeworld, organized into matriarchal city-states, before contact with colony ships from the Galactic Republic approximately three centuries prior to the Galactic Civil War. Jarells were a historically violent species; the various monarchies that ruled Jarell society forced their own young into periods of indentured servitude in exchange for weapons and technology. Since their discovery by the Republic, Jarells migrated to several other planets in the Kathol sector, and were often found serving private citizens, corporations, and criminal organizations as hired muscle. |
[edit] Oon Tien Oon Tien was a planet in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories, and the homeworld of the Jarell species. Discovered by Galactic Republic colonists roughly 300 years before the Galactic Civil War, the planet was settled by Humans. The native Jarell monarchies traded with the new Human settlers, acquiring weapons and high technology that fueled a change in Jarell society. In the decades preceding the Galactic Civil War, Oon Tien was integrated into the Kathol sector, and became a major manufacturing and agricultural hub. With Oon Tien falling under Imperial rule, Moff Kentor Sarne—governor of the sector—established stardocks in orbit of the planet, resulting in Oon Tien becoming the center of his fleet's construction and maintenance operations. Following the fall of Kal'Shebbol to the New Republic in 8 ABY, Governor Manon Flint was ordered to hold the docks at all costs from New Republic aggression. The planet would prove problematic to the New Republic as it sought to expand its influence throughout the sector. |
[edit] Torize The planet Torize was located on the Trition Trade Route in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. A major trade and industrial hub, the planet was orbited by numerous space stations, and spaceports littered the surface. A naturally volcanic planet with high levels of activity, the atmosphere was hazardous to most beings, and a breath mask was required. The atmosphere was worsened by an industrial accident in 5 ABY that released toxic pollutants into the air. In 8 ABY, following the liberation of Kal'Shebbol by New Republic forces, the planet faced an internal power struggle between Imperial loyalists intent on holding the planet, and New Republic sympathizers who wished to overthrow them. |
[edit] DomazDomaz was the capital city of Kolatill, a planet on the Trition Trade Route in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Placed under martial law by its Imperial governor in 0 ABY, the population of the city eventually rebelled eight years later, overthrowing the Imperial authorities after news of the New Republic's successful liberation of the sector capital Kal'Shebbol reached them. In retaliation, the escort carrier Kathol Protector deployed TIE bombers to attack the city, which they left ruined and in flames. The survivors banded together and began recovery and relief efforts. They were assisted by the crew of the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar, as well as medical ships provided by Governor Monjai, the New Republic administrator of Kal'Shebbol. |
[edit] Trition Trade Route The Trition Trade Route was a commercial hyperlane located in the Outer Rim Territories at the edge of the Galaxy. A continuation of the Rimma Trade Route—a major hyperlane that connected the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim—the Trition Trade Route commenced at the planet Karideph in the Minos Cluster, extending into the remote Kathol sector before eventually terminating at Gandle Ott. The Route linked several important worlds in the sectors together, and placement on the Route aided each planet's development and economic growth by giving them access to outside trade. |
[edit] Battle of Tiems The Battle of Tiems was an engagement fought between Rebel Alliance and Imperial forces sometime during the Galactic Civil War in the area surrounding the city of Tiems on an unidentified planet. General Carlist Rieekan led an Alliance detachment of three infantry regiments to liberate thousands of Alliance prisoners from Imperial facilities in Tiems. After successfully completing the assignment, their extraction was delayed as the transports were held up by enemy starfighter forces. Forced to defend a fixed position—the landing zone for their extraction—against a numerically superior enemy, Rieekan employed a mobile defense. By knowing that his Imperial counterpart would concentrate his full assault on the weakest part of the Alliance defensive line, Rieekan drew the Imperial forces into an effective trap, destroying half their number. The remaining Imperial soldiers withdrew to Tiems to regroup and reinforce, although by the time the Imperial commander mustered his forces, the Alliance soldiers had been extracted from the planet. Following the battle, the engagement was used by General Crix Madine as the perfect example of the mobile defense tactic during orientation briefings to new Rebel ground forces commanders. |
[edit] Battle of Barkhesh.jpg) The Battle of Barkhesh was a minor engagement on the planet Barkhesh fought between Rebel Alliance forces under the command of General Carlist Rieekan—allied with native Barkhesh Resistance forces—and the Galactic Empire in 0.5 ABY. Following the evacuation of Yavin Base after the Battle of Yavin, the Alliance needed to recoup the large number of supplies either left behind on Yavin 4 or destroyed by Imperial forces during the evacuation. The Barkhesh Resistance offered supplies to the Alliance, and a Rebel Lambda-class T-4a shuttle was assigned to rendezvous with a Barkhesh supply convoy and pick them up. Because of Imperial forces in the region, Commander Luke Skywalker and Rogue Squadron were assigned to escort duty. The Rogues protected the vital convoy as it moved from a supply base to the landing zone, engaging TIE bombers, All Terrain Scout Transports, and static turbolaser defenses. Rogue Squadron eliminated the enemy presence, and the cargo transfer proceeded unhindered. |
[edit] Dar Keyis Dar Keyis was a Human male from the planet Churba. A member of the New Republic Starfighter Corps six months after the Battle of Endor, he was transferred to Rogue Squadron just prior to the Brentaal IV Campaign and assigned the callsign Rogue Ten. The New Republic had targeted the planet Brentaal IV as part of an ongoing operation to establish a foothold in the Core Worlds, and to eventually liberate the galactic capital of Coruscant. Keyis served in the assault on the Brentaal IV moonbase, helping to secure it as a staging area for a direct assault on the planet itself. He then participated in the attack on the city of Vuultin, a diversionary feint that allowed the New Republic to establish a base in the city of Oradin. During the evacuation of Brentaal IV—an effort by the Imperial authorities to spirit away the wealthy and elite citizens of the planet—Keyis's fighter was destroyed by weapons fire from a TIE Interceptor. He was killed in the resulting explosion. |
[edit] Diblen HarleysDiblen Harleys was a Human male from the planet Coruscant. The son of an Imperial bureaucrat, Harleys grew up believing that the Empire stood for order and justice, and wanted to join the Imperial Survey Corps. Following the death of his mother around his fifteenth birthday, his father revealed the true nature of the Empire to him. Angry at being lied to all his life, Harleys joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic, serving in the capacity of a starfighter pilot and tactician. Harleys's tactics would later prove to be effective during the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, assisting in the Alliance victory over the Empire. By 9 ABY, during the Thrawn Crisis—a military campaign against the New Republic led by the Chiss Grand Admiral Thrawn—Harleys was a Wing Commander and spent much of his time out of the cockpit planning missions. During Princess Leia Organa Solo and New Republic Intelligence agent Winter's search for Delta Source—a highly effective Imperial spy within the New Republic's highest echelons—Harleys's involvement in a mission to confirm intelligence regarding the state of construction of three Imperial-class Star Destroyers at the Ord Trasi shipyards was used in a scheme to identify the spy. |
[edit] Gar Berra Major Gar "Crazy Man" Berra was a Human male who served the Rebel Alliance as a training officer during the Galactic Civil War. Assigned to Oracle Base on the planet Tel III in the Brak sector, Berra's job was to train raw recruits into effective soldiers. A strict disciplinarian, he was hated by the recruits who trained under him due to his intense and demanding training methods. Berra, however, did not take their feelings toward him personally, as he knew that the training he gave them would ultimately save their lives in the field. |
[edit] Charis Charis was a planet on the Trition Trade Route in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. An important industrial base for the sector, the population of the planet staged an uprising against the local Imperial governor—Moff Kentor Sarne—and his forces in 4 ABY. Sarne's forces assaulted the world, laying waste to many of the major cities and reducing the planetary population from one billion to 850 million. Following the disintegration of Imperial authority in the sector with the New Republic's liberation of the sector capital Kal'Shebbol in 8 ABY, the population of Charis prepared to stage a second uprising to free their world. |
[edit] Rokak'k Baran The Rokak'k Baran was an immense, ancient starship that was the product of Gree technology. Disk-shaped and measuring five kilometers in diameter, the vessel was the only means of travel between the worlds of the Gree Enclave, a small region of space in the Outer Rim Territories governed by the Gree, a race of six-tentacled cephalopods. Requiring a crew of 5,000 Gree to operate, the vessel relied on other Gree devices—such as the Varat'k Snarap and Karkak'k Marek—for defense. |
[edit] Corjain The planet Corjain was located within the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories, just off the Trition Trade Route. Barely habitable, the planet supported a large mining industry, with all settlements located deep underground. During the Galactic Civil War, the planet was also the location of a secret outpost maintained by the Bothan Spynet. |
[edit] Rokak'kMaster Rokak'k was a male Gree who commanded the Rokak'k Baran, a transport ship that ferried information, goods, and beings around the various worlds of the Gree Enclave. Due to his position, he was considered to be one of the most influential masters of his time, and dedicated himself to ensuring that the Baran maintained its schedule as it traveled around its circuit. |
[edit] Gree Gree was a planet located within the Gree Enclave, a small region in the Outer Rim Territories. It was the homeworld of the Gree species, a race of six-tentacled cephalopods who, despite having an advanced form of technology, allowed their society to fall into ruin when they began prizing an individual's mastery of their advanced devices over improving them or creating new ones. As the Operator caste became more powerful within Gree society, they guarded the secrets of operating and manipulating their devices, sometimes dying before they could pass the knowledge on to their apprentices. Gree served as the capital of the Enclave, and was considered to be the cultural center of Gree society, revered by all members of the species as a sacred place. By the time of the Galactic Empire, Gree had fallen into ruin following the near-collapse of Gree society. Only one major city remained, and the rest of the planet was a virtual wasteland covered in barren plains and abandoned ruins. Little was known of the planet to other species; the Gree restricted visitors to the world, with individuals only being permitted onto the world at the behest of the planetary grand council. |
[edit] HesocHesoc was a male starfighter pilot serving in the Alliance Starfighter Corps during the Galactic Civil War. He flew a T-65 X-wing starfighter, and was known as "Hotshot Hesoc" due to his skills in the cockpit. During the Matacorn campaign, Hesoc achieved an impressive tally of twenty-two confirmed kills before being caught by a TIE interceptor during a Tallon Roll maneuver. His X-wing was badly damaged, but he managed to return to base. His right leg had been injured when the fighter was hit, and it had to be removed and replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis. Officially grounded due to injury, Hesoc refused to accept a training post and appealed directly to his Sector Commander, General Lesilk, to be reinstated to flight status. He claimed that, due to only having one leg, his reaction time to a scramble alert would be faster than other pilots as he would already have one sock and boot on. Lesilk granted his request, and he rejoined his squadron. |
[edit] ChemChem was a Human male who was in his youth during the Yuuzhan Vong War, a conflict spurred by the invasion of the extragalactic Yuuzhan Vong in 25 ABY. His mother was a diplomat who collected pristine starfighters. On his fourteenth birthday, Chem left home to join Kyp's Dozen, an elite starfighter squadron headed by Jedi Master Kyp Durron. He stole his mother's most prized possession, a prototype of the T-65XJ X-wing starfighter, to fulfill his goal. Locating the Dozen, Chem spent several months following them around before being accepted into the unit. He fought during the fall of the galactic capital Coruscant, and was killed during the engagement when his fighter was hit by enemy plasma fire. |
[edit] Wenton Chan Wenton Chan was a Human male from the Core World of Corulag, where he gained flight experience by piloting T-16 skyhoppers. During the Galactic Civil War, Chan volunteered to serve the Alliance to Restore the Republic, joining their starfighter corps and flying a T-65 X-wing starfighter. By 0 BBY, he held the rank of lieutenant. Chan was assigned to Red Squadron as Red Eleven, and was stationed at Yavin Base on Yavin 4. Once the location of the hidden base had been discovered by Imperial forces, Chan was part of the Rebel starfighter forces mobilized to attack the Death Star, the Empire's planet-destroying superweapon. During the subsequent battle, Chan was killed in combat, although the Alliance managed to secure victory by destroying the battlestation. |
[edit] Gastrulan Gastrulans were a sapient species native to the planet Gastrula in the Outer Rim Territories. Standing just taller than Sullustans—who averaged a height of 1.5 meters—Gastrulans sported four short arms and spotted, bulbous heads. They had eyestalks on either side of their heads, located just above the neck. During the Galactic Civil War, the Gastrulans became the sole clients of Captain Bungo Bung's Great Bantha Breakfast Biscuit Run, an endeavor to earn credits for the Sullustan by selling Bantha Breakfast Biscuits, a popular snack food, to those unable to obtain them. Two weeks after the Run was established, the Gastrulans were threatened by the ravenous Giant Amorphous Bantha Breakfast Biscuit, a mutated version of the snack that evolved when the preservatives in the biscuits came into contact with Gastrula's atmosphere. |
[edit] Gastrula Gastrula was a planet in the Outer Rim Territories. The homeworld of the Gastrulan species, it was the terminus of the short-lived Great Bantha Breakfast Biscuit Run during the Galactic Civil War. Captain Bungo Bung had established the trade route in an effort to make credits by selling the popular snack Bantha Breakfast Biscuits to the locals. However, when combined with certain elements in the environment of Gastrula, preservatives in the biscuits caused the snacks to mutate into the Giant Amorphous Bantha Breakfast Biscuit. The resulting lifeform was a ravenous creature that set out to consume the entire planet. |
[edit] KastaysKastays was a male Aaris who lived on the planet Aaris III several thousand years before the Galactic Civil War. A noted scholar, he worked from a tower that overlooked one of the Aaris cities. Several days after the Plaque of Victory—a sentient, inanimate artifact that influenced the minds of surrounding individuals with suspicions and violent tendencies—arrived in the city, it was given over to Kastays for safekeeping. The artifact had been causing civil unrest throughout the city, and it was hoped that if the artifact was in Kastays's tower, high above the population, its effects would be negated. Hiding it in a floor safe, Kastays recorded the events surrounding the Plaque's arrival, and the subsequent unrest that he dubbed "the last days", on the bas-relief pictographs that the Aaris used to record their history. Several thousand years later, after the fall of the Aaris civilization, his recordings were uncovered and translated by Imperial science team MS-133. |
[edit] Scupper BantooThe Scupper Bantoo was a CorelliSpace Gymsnor-2 light freighter operated by the Bith Maddie Macatten in the Kathol Outback. Battered and considered to be an obsolete design by 12 BBY, the vessel formerly belonged to Macatten's slave master. When her master was killed by an Aing-Tii ship while on a trading junket, Macatten took the craft from its dock on Kal'Shebbol, the capital planet of the Kathol sector. Macatten used the Scupper Bantoo to supply the colonies of the Kathol Outback with replacement parts and luxury items, as well as to track down information regarding the Aing-Tii. |
[edit] Corona-class frigate The Corona-class frigate was a combat starship produced by Kuat Drive Yards for the New Republic. A successor to the successful EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate line, the Corona-class was designed as part of the New Republic's drive to modernize and standardize its naval forces, moving away from the eclectic collection of starships that it had inherited from the Rebel Alliance. The frigate was designed to incorporate the New Republic's philosophy of not allowing starships to operate independently for years at a time, and to be tied to a home base for support. Physically resembling its predecessor, Corona-class vessels were intended to operate both independently and in larger fleet formations, as well as perform a variety of mission profiles, including reconnaissance, close-line fire support and anti-starfighter screening operations. They boasted an array of offensive and defensive weapons, as well as hangar space for thirty-six starfighters. Corona-class frigates were deployed to the New Republic Defense Forces by 11 ABY, seeing service during the assaults on the New Republic by Imperial Admiral Natasi Daala. |
[edit] AarisThe Aaris were one-meter-tall reptilian sentients native to the planet Aaris III in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Thousands of years prior to the Galactic Civil War, the Aaris built an industrial society across their homeworld, raising large cities. They had a strong tradition of oral communication, to the extent of developing a unique method of recording their knowledge. Although a peaceful race, the Aaris tore their society apart in a civil war, a conflict perpetrated by the arrival of the Plaque of Victory on their planet. The Plaque was a sentient lifeform—although it was inanimate and held within a metal ingot—that sought to influence the minds of other beings into doing its bidding. The Plaque caused the Aaris people to become violent and homicidal, turning factions against one another as they all sought to gain possession of the artifact. Eventually, the Aaris fell into decline, and their cities became ruins reclaimed by the jungle. By 8 ABY, the primitive descendants of the Aaris lived in warrens tunneled through the ruins of their former cities. |
[edit] Kathol ProtectorThe Kathol Protector was an escort carrier in service to Imperial warlord Moff Kentor Sarne as part of his military forces in the Kathol sector. Modified to mount two tractor beam projectors in place of a standard escort carrier's two twin laser cannons, the ship also carried pathogenic weapons as part of its arsenal. In 8 ABY, New Republic forces liberated the Kathol sector capital of Kal'Shebbol. In response, the population of the nearby planet of Kolatill overthrew their Imperial governor and declared their allegiance to the New Republic. The Kathol Protector conducted a retaliatory strike on the world, using TIE bombers to severely damage the capital city of Domaz. Several days later, the Kathol Protector returned to the planet to conduct a second attack, this time using the pathogenic weapons it carried. The New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar had responded to a distress signal from Kolatill and was in orbit of the planet. During the ensuing battle, the Kathol Protector's TIE bombers were tasked with releasing their pathogenic bombs on urban areas across the planet. They were eventually stopped by the combined starfighter forces of the FarStar and the Kolatill Defense Force. Despite this, the Kathol Protector was able to capture a shuttle carrying Captain Keleman Ciro—the commanding officer of the FarStar—before withdrawing from the battle. |
[edit] Maddie Macatten Maddie Macatten was a female Bith who was considered to be old by 8 ABY. Formerly a slave on the planet Kal'Shebbol in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories, Macatten was freed when her master was killed by the Aing-Tii—a mysterious species that hated slavers—while on a trading mission. Taking one of her former master's ships, the Scupper Bantoo, Macatten headed into the Kathol Outback. Setting herself up as a merchant, she spent her days searching for the Aing-Tii homeworld so that she could properly thank them for freeing her from slavery. |
[edit] Qulok's Fist Qulok's Fist was a criminal gang active during the early years of the New Republic. Comprised of four individuals—Thanis Gul-Rah, Kolig, Padak, and Sufar—Qulok's Fist engaged in various criminal activities, including slave trafficking, mercenary work, smuggling, and bounty-hunting. They used a modified YT-1300 light freighter called Steel Fist as their headquarters, transportation, and main combat vessel, operating in the Outer Rim Territories, Minos Cluster, and Kathol sector. In 8 ABY, the group was contracted by Moff Kentor Sarne, warlord of the Kathol sector, to keep track of the New Republic CR90 corvette FarStar. The FarStar was actively tracking Sarne after forcing him to flee from his capital, and Sarne employed Qulok's Fist to provide him with information, and, on one occasion in the Shintel system, attack the corvette directly. |
[edit] Venom ZeroVenom Zero—also known as "VZ"—was a squad of Venom assault troopers that served the Galactic Alliance Core Fleet during the Second Imperial Civil War. Considered to be an elite unit, Venom Zero was not permanently assigned to any one Sabertooth-class assault/rescue vessel like their fellow squads, but was constantly transferred between ships when the mission deemed that they were needed. Like other Venom assault squads, Venom Zero was trained in close-quarters combat, zero-g combat and ship-to-ship boarding tactics. When not engaged in battle, Venom Zero was responsible for training their fellow squads in advanced combat techniques. |
[edit] Ambition The Ambition was a Carrack-class light cruiser in service to the Imperial Navy. In 4 ABY, the ship became part of Moff Kentor Sarne's military forces when he removed the Kathol sector from the authority of the Galactic Empire, setting himself up as an independent warlord. By 8 ABY, the Ambition was maintained in a secret underground hangar on the sector capital of Kal'Shebbol for use as an escape craft for the Moff in case the planet fell to enemy forces. When New Republic forces assaulted Kal'Shebbol in 8 ABY, Sarne used the Ambition to flee the planet and join up with the rest of his military forces. |
[edit] Unidentified New Republic admiralThis male admiral was a member of the New Republic Defense Force, serving during the early years of the New Republic. In 8 ABY, he commanded the task force that liberated the planet Kal'Shebbol, the capital of the Kathol sector. The planet was ruled by Moff Kentor Sarne, a rogue Imperial warlord who controlled the entire Kathol sector. Following the successful liberation of the world, the admiral was ordered to proceed to the Minos Cluster to rendezvous with forces under the command of Sarin Virgilio, then head on to the Bozhnee sector to assist Admiral Ackbar in engaging another rogue Imperial warlord. Before he left Kal'Shebbol, this admiral authorized the transfer of personnel and equipment to the CR90 corvette FarStar, which had been charged with tracking down Sarne after the Moff escaped during the battle for his capital. |
