Template:SW Character

Noa Briqualon is a character in the TV movie Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. Stranded on the forest moon of Endor long ago, he learned to adapt to his primitive surroundings. He was marooned on Endor when his ship was caught in the complex gravity patterns of the world and crashed in the forest. The power drive crystal of the ship shattered and his friend Salak went to find one, but was captured by the evil Marauders and killed. Noa soon realized that his friend wasn't coming back and made his home in what remained of a hollow tree trunk.

Noa's house was small but cozy. A homemade table was by the door and a stove was also near the door. Animal hide rugs carpeted the wooden floor. Also there was Noa's bed and assorted tables, hollows, and crevices in which junk was stored. There was also a small upstairs part with lots of interesting articles up there.

Teek, a mischievous creature, met up with Noa sometime between his starship wreck and the "Battle for Endor" movie. Noa let him stay and even carved Teek a bed for his own out of the tree trunk walls of the house. It was Teek who led Cindel Towani and Wicket W. Warrick to Noa's house.

The old man at first was angry that the kids should be brought into his house, but he grew to like them as he was really a kindly man. He helped save Cindel and the Ewoks from the marauders. From his saving actions came a huge battle in which Noa fought the evil marauder king Terak. Wicket the Ewok defeated Terak and Noa and Cindel repaired the starship.

Little is known of Noa's later years, though, according to the Star Wars Official Webpage, he retired somewhere in the Mid Rim of the Galaxy. It is not known when he died.

Following Chirpa's death, his daughter, Princess Kneesa, ascended to the throne.

Cracken, Pash

Pash Cracken is the son of General Airen Cracken, an Alliance war hero and eventual head of Alliance Intelligence.

Pash did not quite share his father's talent for espionage, but he was a very good pilot, so the elder Cracken invented a false identity for him, and he was accepted to the Imperial Academy on Vensenor. Shortly after graduation, he and his entire squadron of 72 starfighters defected to the Rebel Alliance, killing a Star Destroyer in the process (no mean feat for TIE Fighters). Later, with the Alliance, he led one of the first A-Wing squadrons in the Rebel fleet.

Shortly after the Battle of Endor Captain Cracken joined the Rogue Squadron under Wedge Antilles and flew as Rogue 4. Pash at one point invented a dogfighting maneuver known as the "Cracken Twist".

Derricote, General Evir

General Evir Derricote is an Imperial general. For a while, he ran a hydroponics facility on Borleias that produced Alderaanian foodstuffs as a personal side project. He lost the facility when the Rebel Alliance took the planet, but the Imperial leader, Ysanne Isard, recognized his talents as a bioengineer and picked him to head the Krytos virus project.

Dormé

Dormé is a handmaiden of Senator Padmé Amidala, the former Queen of Naboo, in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. At the beginning of Attack of the Clones, Dormé was already on Coruscant when Senator Amidala arrived. Because of this, Dormé survived the assassination attempt on Amidala's life that killed her fellow handmaidens Cordé and Versé.

She was incredibly devoted to Padmé and the two seem to have a sisterly relationship. She was desperately worried when Padmé left the capital in the company of Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker. She also had the ability to see the humor in a situation. In one cut scene of Attack of the Clones, Dormé was chuckling in the background as Anakin complained about his relationship with Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Dormé does not appear again in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. She is portrayed by actress Rose Bryne.

Farlander, Keyan

File:Keyanfarlander.jpg

Keyan Farlander was an illustrious pilot with the Rebel Alliance. He worked on experimental projects such as the B-Wing with Slayn & Korpil, a starfighter manufacturer operating in the Verpine colony. In the Star Wars Expanded Universe Farlander earned the respect of Luke Skywalker and became Jedi in the New Jedi Order. He juggled his life as a Jedi with his life as a prodigious millitary commander, playing a pivotal role in the Battle of Coruscant as well as fighting against the Yuuzhan_Vong invasion.

Farlander also appears as the protagonist and player character in the Star Wars computer game X-Wing. This is never made explicit in the game itself and the connection is revealed only in the official strategy guide.

Keyan Farlander grew up on Agamar, and was indifferent to the ways of the galactic government until Mon Mothma came to the planet to gain underground support for the Alliance. Farlander received a copy of the A Call to Reason pamphlet, and it turned his mind to the Alliance.

He joined up, and decided the he wanted to be a starfighter pilot. As an untrained Alliance starpilot on his first mission, Keyan helped recover important Imperial documents by disabling the Imperial shuttle Talon near Turkana. He proved his incredible piloting skills there as well, and went on to become one of the Alliance's premier pilots.

He was instrumental in raids on a number of Imperial outposts, and was part of the team that fled to Yavin 4 to prepare for battle against the Death Star. While on Yavin 4, Keyan helped familiarize Luke Skywalker on the controls of the X-Wing. He was one of the few survivors of the Battle of Yavin, piloting a Y-Wing during the fighting and fleeing the destruction of the first Death Star with Luke Skywalker, Wedge Antilles, and the Millennium Falcon.

Keyan continued to serve the Alliance, and later the New Republic, as a military officer and advisor. Because of his uncanny skills, Keyan was tested by Luke Skywalker for a connection to the Force, which revealed that Keyan was possible Jedi material. He trained for many years at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, and eventually earned the rank of Jedi Knight.

By the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Farlander had been promoted to General. He served under Admiral Traest Kre'fey aboard the Ralroost during the period following the Battle of Coruscant, working to implement the plans of Admirals Sovv, the late Ackbar, and Kre'fey.

Fel, Baron Soontir

File:Carnor Jax.jpg

Carnor Jax was an Imperial Guard of Emperor Palpatine in the fictional Star Wars Expanded Universe, who was eventually raised to the rank of "Sovereign Protector" (the highest Royal Guard rank). After the Battle of Endor, Carnor Jax put into execution a plan to depose the Emperor and rule in his stead with his nascent Dark Side Force-powers. Before the Reborn Emperor returned to Byss, unbeknownest to him, his personal physician had tampered with the genetic material of the Emperor's clones and the cells in storage. The tampering meant that Palpatine would suffer a physical decline which would result in his death. He sensed this, though he never realized that it was sabotage and left for Onderon, where he intended to place his soul into the infant Anakin Solo. He would never return. Into this void stepped Jax, who suffered a setback almost immediately- the Emperor's physician had been broken by Rebel Alliance interrogators, and had told the whole story of how he had been bribed by Carnor Jax to kill the Emperor. This would have been bad enough, but one of the loyal Royal Guardsmen had survived on Onderon, and had infiltrated the Rebel base and heard the physician's confession. Immediately the guardsman fled to Yinchorr to inform his brethren of the traitor amongst their ranks. Jax was not far behind, and with a large assualt force wiped out nearly all of his fellow guardsmen. He then trained a legion of stormtroopers to be his own personal body guards, empowering them with the Dark side. Their armor was dyed black and they were thus known as Black-clad storm troopers. Out of all of Carnor's fellow guardsmen, one was left alive. Kir Kanos survived Carnor Jax's betrayal and spent the rest of his days hunting down the traitor of the Empire. Carnor Jax was eventually slain by Kir Kanos on the planet where first they met: Yinchorr.
