[edit] Biography
He was killed not long after the Battle of Yavin when Darth Vader brought the Super Star Destroyer Executor to destroy the Rebels that had been blockaded by the Imperial Navy. Vrad's ship fled from the battle unharmed. Later, the Millennium Falcon came across the the graveyard of ships, and while looking at the devastation, Luke Skywalker glimpsed Vrad's craft. When the Falcon arrived on Yavin IV, his ship soon followed. After getting in a fight with Skywalker, they went on a mission to sabotage the Executor. Utilizing an ancient power gem to pierce the ship's shields, he flew his fighter in a suicide run straight at the ship, disabling it and buying more time for the Rebels to finish their evacuation. His death devastated his father.
[edit] Behind the scenes
In The Official Star Wars Fact File 21, Vrad was erroneously called General Dodonna's nephew.
