Kern's Pride
Samuel Tomas Gillespee's personal freighter, the Kern's Pride was a modified CR90 corvette that had seen more than its fair share of combat and fighting. Many of Gillespee's team wondered why he kept the ship around, as it was easily the most beat-up ship in his small fleet. Gillespee, however, refused to accept another command, and once claimed that the way he'd leave the Kern's Pride was when the ship itself finally died. He first acquired the ship some twenty-five years before the Battle of Endor, and reconfigured the ship almost annually to meet his changing needs. It even helped transport Alliance soldiers into battle during the Galactic Civil War. The Kern's Pride was armed with six double turbolaser cannons and a pair of ion cannons. It required a crew of 145 to operate, and could carry up to forty passengers and 10,000 metric tons of cargo. (TLC, GMR4)

Kerol Fire-gem
a rare and beautiful gemstone. (TPS)

Kerr, Danaan
this man was rumored to be a Dark Jedi with an allegiance to Emperor Palpatine. He reappeared about three years after the Battle of Endor in the Bitrose and Instrop Sectors, where there were reports of an insane dark magician. It was later discovered that he was indeed a Jedi Knight at one time, entering the order during the Clone Wars. He was saved from Palpatine's Jedi purge when the Emperor discovered Kerr had a strong link to the Dark Side of the Force. Palpatine left Kerr to be consumed by the Dark Side, and Kerr eventually fled to Rannon. (WBC)

Kerri

Kerritamba
this elderly Wookiee was the leader of the Kerritamba tribe, during the height of the New Order. (SWGAL)

Kerritamba
this Wookiee tribe lived in the settlement known simply as Kerritamba Village, which was located near the Mysess Glade, in the Kkowir Forest of the planet Kashyyyk. Like much of the surrounding forest, Kerritamba Village appeared to be dying off, as a virulent disease destroyed the plantlife that filled the jungles around. The Kerritamba tribe spent much of their time trying to defeat the disease, but couldn't get any help from the nearby city of Kachirho to mass-produce a possible cure. (SWGAL)

Kerritamba Village
this was one of the many Wookiee villages found on the planet Kashyyyk. This settlement was the home of the Kerritamba tribe, although it was located in the Kkowir Forest. Like much of the surrounding forest, Kerritamba Village appeared to be dying off, as a virulent disease destroyed the plantlife that filled the jungles around. The Kerritamba tribe spent much of their time trying to defeat the disease, but couldn't get any help from the nearby city of Kachirho to mass-produce a possible cure. (SWGAL)

Kerrithrarr
a Wookiee leader within the Alliance, Kerrithrarr was instrumental in the development of the New Republic. His signature helped validate the Declaration of a New Republic. When former Imperial supporters began gaining Senate seats after planetary elections, Kerrithrarr agreed with Leia Organa-Solo, believing that the Imperials would tear the Senate and the Republic apart. (HTSB, TNR)

Kerros' Tower
the highest tower located on Cloud City, Kerros' Tower housed the traffic control center for the facility. It was also the base of operations for the Storm Guard. (ISU, TBH, GG2)

Kerseage, Emil
this man was one of the best shuttle pilots on the planet Cartao, during the Clone Wars. He was hired by Kinman Doriana to transport him to Spaarti Creations, during a mission to develop cloning cylinders for the Army of the Republic. Doriana had investigated various shuttle pilots, and believed Kerseage to be the most knowledgeable and discreet of the lot. Kerseage had no love for the government of Lord Pilester Binalie or the Prackla Trade Council, since his own cargo transport company had been run out of business by badly-worded regulations. (SWI68)

Kersh Lauskner's Traveling Animal/Acrobatic Arcadium
this small troupe of gymnasts and animal handlers travelled the galaxy, performing for planetary officials and Imperial dignitaries. Among the clowns and acrobats was the Amazing Alonzo and his captive trompa. The troupe once played at the Gralleenya Gala, some three years after the Battle of Yavin, when Alonzo's trompa escaped and nearly injured a young child. It was later learned that the beast was reacting to Moff Bandor's hurlothrumbic generator. (GCQ)

Kersk, Cavvie
Tallov Kersk's young daughter. (TOJC)

Kersk, Tallov
this man and his family were among the colonists sent by the Brentaal League to establish a settlement on Muzara, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Tallov and his family were also the first colonists to encounter the Muzara. Tallov dreamed of the day that he and his community would turn Muzara's dry savannas into a major supplier of crops and foodstuffs for the Brentaal League. (TOJC)

Kersk, Vettle
Tallov Kersk's young son. (TOJC)

Kerso
this was one of the many Corellian families which were considered enster, maintaining their sociopolitical affiliations with almost fanatical devotion. (MBS)

Kersos, Erel
this man was born into an enster family on the planet Corellia, many decades before the Clone Wars. However, his marriage to Feleema - an ekster woman - led to his exile from his own family, an exile he gladly accepted to be with the woman he loved. Some sixty years before the Clone Wars, Erel and Feleema were married. The couple traveled to Coruscant when Erel began his military career. Unfortunately, they only had about six years of marriage before she was killed in an accident, leaving Kersos without any family whatsoever. He threw himself into a military career, and eventually rose to the rank of Admiral in the Old Republic's command structure when the Clone Wars broke out. He was dispatched to the planet Drongar to replace Tarnese Bleyd, and was surprised to find his own great-nephew, Jos Vondar, serving at Rimsoo Seven. Kersos was Vondar's mother's uncle, so their relationship was not close, but Jos was nonetheless aware of Kersos' exile. When Kersos discovered Jos' love for Tolk le Trene, he set out to make sure Jos knew about the implications of their relationship. Despite his own life story, Erel was unable to convince Jos of the great loss he would experience when he was exiled. Ultimately, Erel admitted that the six years he had spent with Feleema were worth more than 600 years with his family, despite the fact that he never got to see his nieces and nephews grow up. Erel decided to take another tack, and arranged for Tolk to be stationed on his MedStar vessel. The pair had another series of talks, and Tolk found herself wary of forcing Jos into such a position. Erel, however, realized that Jos was indeed serious, and simply wanted to make sure Tolk found out for herself. He then provided a taped recording of their discussion to Tolk, so that she knew of Jos' love as well. When Jos finally confronted Tolk and explained his love for her, she gladly agreed to continue their relationship. Although Jos was initially angry at his uncle, he eventually thanked Erel for his words. In the wake of the Battle of Drongar, Kersos requested a transfer to Borellos Base, on his homeworld of Corellia, with the intent of trying to make contact with his long-lost family. (MJH)

Kersos, Feleema
this woman married Erel Kersos, some sixty years before the Clone Wars, despite the fact that he came from an Ensterite family. Erel abandoned his family in order to marry her, a testiment to the depths of their feelings for each other. When Erel began his military career, Feleema traveled with him to Coruscant. Unfortunately, she died in a mag-lev transport crash, along with 400 other beings, leaving Erel without any sort of family to fall back on. (MJH)

Kerts-Bhrg Field Generator
this massive, conical device generated a directional forcefield, when placed into a formation of two or more generators. The Alliance used five Kerts-Bhrg generators to form a shielded pyramid in which to hide its fleet near Arbra's sun, in the wake of the Battle of Hoth. The base of the generator was designed to collect huge amounts of stellar energy, which was then used to power the forcefield it projected from its top. The Alliance's plans nearly worked, until an absorption circuit overloaded. The resulting fire let off noxious fumes which rendered the command crew unconscious. Only the valiant efforts of R2-D2 and C-3PO repaired the problem and saved the fleet. (LTA5, MC58)

Keryt
this hot, dry world is the first planet in the Zelos System. It has been scouted for terraforming, but has yet to be modified. It has no natural satellites. (PG2)

Kesivo
this being was the owner and benefactor of the gladiator known as Giant Flog, a regular combatant in the Blood Sport of Rattatak during the months leading up to the Battle of Geonosis. Kesivo was not prone to bragging, and simply left his warrior's record do the talking. Unfortunately for both Kesivo and Giant Flog, they were present in The Cauldron when Asajj Ventress set out ot impress Count Dooku. When Ventress defeated Giant Flog, his mace went flying into the air and struck the box in which Kesivo was sitting. The huge chunk of rock crushed Kesivo to death. (SWDB)

Kessel
a planet with large spice mining operation, Kessel was the second and primary world in the Kessel System, far out in the Outer Rim. It had no natural atmosphere, so one was generated by huge processors. It was orbited by a single moon. Astrophysicists believed that Kessel, like the rest of the Kessel System, was doomed to be swallowed by the nearby Maw in the next few millennia, as the intense gravity of the multiple black holes drew it in. The miners who harvested the spice from the planet's crust worked in near-absolute darkness, so as not to activate the spice. During the era of the New Order, Kessel was used as an Imperial penal colony, with an Imperial garrison stationed on the moon. The prisoners were used as spice miners. When Emperor Palpatine died at Endor, the Imperials stationed on Kessel were not prepared for autonomy. When the prisoners heard about the death of the Emperor, they revolted against the Imperial guards, overthrowing them and taking control of the planet and the production of spice. Moruth Doole, a prisoner who had risen to the top of the Imperial's list of henchmen, became the de facto ruler of the mines. He continued to use the lowest of the prisoners as spice miners, keeping a handful of the upper-level prisoners as advisors and crew chiefs. Doole had the atmospheric production reduced in an effort to save money; he felt that since the prisoners worked underground, an above-ground atmosphere was a frivolous waste of money. Doole's reign over the mines ended just after he shot Han Solo down over the planet. Solo escaped through the Maw, only to find the Maw Installation. His escape back through the Maw drew Daala's Imperial fleet through it as well, and his escape drew Daala's ire. She lashed out at Doole's Navy in retaliation, destroying 90% of it. When Tol Sivron and the remaining Installation crew fled through the Maw in the prototype Death Star, they used Kessel as a target for the untested superlaser. They succeeded only in destroying the garrison moon. Lando and Mara Jade tried to reopen the mines, but were unsuccessful at making the operation profitable. Kessel orbits the star Kessa once every 322 local days. Each day lasts about 26 standard hours. Note that the day on Kessel is listed as 34 standard hours, and its year at 428 local days, in the Wizards of the Coast website's Planet Hoppers feature. Also note that the computer game Rebellion states that Kessel is located in the Calaron Sector, while The Hutt Gambit says it's in the Kessel Sector. Also note that Classic Star Wars: The Early Adventures depicts Kessel as a beautiful, temperate world of strange forests of huge fungi. The planet is ravaged by Captain Bzorn, who controlled the Ionic Ring, but it is unclear if the devastation resulted in the desolate world seen in the Jedi Academy Trilogy. (SW, JS, COTF, AC, CSWEA, JASB, REB, THG, PH, GORW)

Kessel Bird
this rare, flamingo-like bird was native to thirteen planets in the Aeneid System, at least according to the outlandish tales of Squishmael. Distinguished by their lime-green plumage, these birds were valued for their pineal gland, which were used in a variety of medical applications. However, because of the rarity of the Kessel Bird, it was illegal to kill them. Thus, a black market for Kessel Birds arose during the early years of the New Order, creating a so-called "Kessel Run". Squishmael's friend, Marshak, explained that smugglers attempting the "Kessel Run" had to obtain as many of the Kessel Birds as they could, filling their cargo holds in as short a trip as possible, all while avoiding the local authorities. In reality, the Kessel Bird was considered worthless, a nuisance creature considered vermin in eight different star systems. The name "Kessel Bird" was even false, used to dupe unwitting rookie smugglers into parting with their credits. (T16)

Kessel Correctional Facility
despite its name, this medium-security prison facility was actually located on Kessel's Garrison Moon, during the height of the New Order. Thise prisoners who were physically unable to contribute to the mining of spice on Kessel itself, yet were too valuable to dispatch, were given menial duties at the Facility. (PH)

Kessel Mining Authority
this was the name used by the body which oversaw the spice mining on the planet Kessel, during the height of the New Order. (SWJ10)

Kessel Run
an 18-parsec smuggling route that passes near The Maw, the Kessel Run was used by smugglers to bypass Imperial ships guarding the movement of spice from Kessel's mines. The completion of the run is a source of pride and accomplishment among smugglers, who constantly try to outdo each other. By moving closer to the black holes of the Maw, a starhsip pilot can trim parsecs from the Run while increasing the difficulty of the trip. The official record for completing the run is held by Han Solo and Chewbacca aboard the Millennium Falcon, in 11.5 parsecs. BoShek claimed to have beaten that record, but without a full cargo to weigh him down. (SW, TME, JS, JASB)

Kessel Run
this swoopchasing obstacle was one of the straightest parts of the race course, but it was littered with the damaged hulls of spacecraft, simulated asteroids, and other trash placed to impede a rider's progress. (BSS)

Kesselrook, Serja
this portly man made his home on the junkyard world of Patch-4. Kesselrook and his band of scavengers greeted Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian when they arrived on the planet in search of four TIE Fighters they had purchased from Orion Ferret. He disliked Ferret, since it was Ferret who transported the Watcher Beasts to Patch-4. Luke and Lando discovered how to control the Watcher Beasts with Ferret's sonnic pacifier, and turned the device over to Kesselrook. This allowed that vagabonds to live peacefully on Patch-4, effectively ousting Ferret from the planet. (LTA5, MC59)

KesselRunner
this was a pseudonym used by a smuggler who had a great deal of experience with droids. KesselRunner was based on Nar Shaddaa. (SWJ13)

Kestn
this was a common name among Cerean females. Unlike their male counterparts, Cerean females use a single name unless they became a bond-wife. In this case, a female will take on their husband's grandfather's name for official matters. The name Kestn indicated snow, ice, or a cold wind. (GCG)

Kestos Minor
Modigal Glave sustained a huge amount of facial damage during the Imperial subjugation of this planet, during the Kwymar Suppressions. He took a blaster bolt in the helmet, at point-blank range. The helmet shattered, and dura-armor shrapnel buried itself in his face. He ignored the pain and damage and continued to fight, eventually gaining control of the world. (SWJ9, SWMW)

Kestrel Nova
a freighter captured by the ancient Jedi Knights, in a battle with space pirates near Tanaab. Ulic Qel-Droma used it, disguised as a smuggler, to infiltrate the Krath. (DLS)

Kestrel, Tarson
this man was the Captain of the smuggling ship Barabi Run during the early years of the New Order. When his ship was captured by agents working for Angela Krin of the Corporate Sector Authority, Captain Kestrel was forced to reveal what he knew about his cargo of spice bound for the tempest production facilities on Varl. Kestrel and his crew were never allowed into the main facility, and were hired by a third party for the job. The crew was only responsible for the delivery of raw spice to Varl, and Kestrel had never seen the finished tempest. He also knew that the Barabi Run wasn't the only smuggling ship at Varl. Although Kestrel and his crew were detained by the Corporate Sector Authority for running spice, they were never arrested, and were set free several days later. (TF)

Ket
this desert world was the home planet of the Ketton race. (AE)

Ket
this was a Yuuzhan Vong measurement of time. (EVR)

Ket Krax
this Troob was the son the General Krax and his wife, Stigrit Krax. In secret, he was in love with the Hobor, Larka Nimondro, despite generations of hostility between their two peoples. When Jake Harthan attempted to disrupt the peace talks between the two races in order to gain control of Mount Yeroc, he murdered Ket and framed Larka for the crime. (DRPC)

Ket Maliss
this Dashade "shadow killer" is a bounty hunter working for Prince Xizor. He is a thick-bodied humanoid with smooth, dark skin. He has small, beady eyes set in a wrinkled face, and his lipless mouth is filled with sharp fangs. Among his greatest achievements for Black Sun was the extermination of the Disac pirate gang, which had been plaguing Sprax's operations along the Sisar Run. Maliss was also the last of the Dashade species, and was the last of the cryogenically-preserved killers maintained by Xizor's family. (CCG, SSR)

Keta
Zothip's Togorian first mate, Keta had joined the Cavrilhu Pirates shortly before the rise of Grand Admiral Thrawn. (DFRSB)

Ketaris
Ketaris was a major commercial world near Berchest. Some five years after the Battle of Endor, Ketaris was the site of an Imperial attack that was part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's attempt to spread the New Republic's fleets too thin, allowing him to eventually attack Coruscant. The Ketaris defense forces put up a strong resistance, however, forcing Thrawn to travel to Ketaris and oversee the battle himself. (TLC)

Kete
a large, dragon-like insect. (ECAR)

Keten
this man served the Imperial Remnant as a Navy Commander, serving under Moff Kurlen Flennic during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was Keten who intercepted the Jade Shadow when Luke Skywalker arrived in Imperial space during his search for Zonama Sekot. (FH1)

Kether
this was one of the most common human surnames encountered in the galaxy. (GCG)

Kether, Ran
this man, a native of the planet Chandrila, served in Rogue Squadron as Rogue Seven, during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. He served as the squadron's communications officer. He was later killed during the defense of Kalarba against the Yuuzhan Vong. (SOC, SBS)

Keth-Keth
this Jawa was one of the handful of his race who were living on Cularin during the final years of the Clone Wars. He was part of a small gang led by Meelo, and was considered the "founder" of the so-called Wookiee Liberation Front, or WOLF for short. In order to communicate with his comrades, Keth-Keth wore a specialized vocoder unit that translated the Jawa language into Basic. When one of their members was captured and imprisoned by the Metatheran Cartel, Meelo led her inept comrades in a daring escape, which was bungled almost from the start. In the resulting chaos, Meelo managed to rescue her friend, but Keth-Keth decided that they needed to cover their escape. Screaming "Free Kashyyyk" as loud as his vocoder would project, Keth-Keth lobbed grenades at police vehicles while calling for people to rally around the Wookiee Liberation Front. Although it was a simple ruse, the Wookiee Liberation Front received a lot of press in the local holonewscasts, and eventually became a legitimate organization that funneled credits and supplies to help the Wookiees of Kashyyyk in their attempt to ousted the Separatist forces that were trying to take control of their homeworld. When Keth-Keth and his comrades were stopped by a group of clone troopers in Hedrett, he reacted violently to their threats to send him back to Tatooine. He used a specially-fitted stun glove to grab the lead clone trooper by the crotch, sending waves of pain into the clone's testicles. The band managed to evade capture in the ensuing chaos. (LFCW)

Kethor

this burly, dark-skinned man served the Alliance as a Corvette pilot, and was stationed at Eyrie Base with Stevan Makintay. (SWJ8)

Keto, Aleema
Satal Keto's cousin, and partner in the overthrowing of the Tetan monarchy just prior to the Sith War. She and Satal Keto learned much from their tutors, but became curious about the Sith magic during a trip to Coruscant. They stole a book of Sith lore from a museum on the planet, and returned to the Empress Teta System. From the book, they learned many ways to harness the power of the Dark Side of the Force through the Sith incantations. Aleema soon discovered that she was adept at the creation of illusions. She was instrumental in bringing down the Lord Keto and his supporters, tricking them with horrible images of Adegan Eels and terrible lizards. She later put her powers to a grander scale, creating illusions of space grazers to fool the combined Jedi-Republic forces during their battle to recover the Tetan system. She was mortally wounded, however, when Nomi Sunrider detected the use of the Dark Side and tried to stop her. She recovered from these wounds, to help her cousin continue the Krath struggle for power. She eventually became the mistress of Ulic Qel-Droma, seducing him as he was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. Ulic's desire for power and glory overshadowed Aleema's attentions, and she was scorned by him when he launched his attack on Coruscant. She then turned the ancient Mandalore warriors to the Krath, but they too left her to fight along side Ulic. Near the end of the Great Sith War, Aleema and Crado tried to destroy the combined Old Republic and Jedi fleets in the Cron Cluster. Her knowledge of the Sith lore was augmented by the use of certain Sith weapons, one of which was the ancient starship used by Naga Sadow when he eluded the Old Republic in the Denarii System. She attempted to use Sadow's crystals to rip the core from a star and hurl it at the fleet. Although she succeeded in destroying most of the starships, she failed to control the power she wielded. The liberated solar core ignited the cores of the surrounding suns, and created an intense, multi-star supernova. The supernova engulfed three Auril Systems and the planet Ossus. It also killed Aleema and Crado, along with Dace Diath, Shoaneb Culu, and Qrrrl Toq. (DLS, TSW, DSSB)

Keto, Satal
a member of the Tetan Elite, Satal Keto and his cousin, Aleema, were drawn to the Dark Side energies that were present in the galaxy some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. They formed the Dark Side worshippers known as the Krath. They were drawn to the Dark Side so fully that they crossed the galaxy to Coruscant, where they entered the Galactic Museum and stole a number of Sith manuscripts and artifacts. They then traveled to Onderon, in an effort to learn more about the artifacts from the Naddists there. Satal was shown how to use the Sith artifacts by King Ommin, who was later killed by the spirit of Freedon Nadd. Nadd's spirit then chose Satal and Aleema to be his new living emmissaries, providing them with Sith swords. The two returned to the Tetan star system, where they overthrew the Carbonite Mining Guild with help from the Dark Jedi and the military just before the Great Sith War. He and Aleema froze their parents in carbonite after they overtook the guild. When Ulic Qel-Droma infiltrated the Krath in an effort to eradicate the Sith warriors, Satal poisoned him with Sith drugs in order to keep the Jedi from turning on the Krath. However, the poison only focused Ulic's powers, and in a pitched lightsaber duel, Aleema tells Ulic that it was Satal who ordered the attack on Deneba which killed Master Arca. Ulic's fury rose even higher, and he killed Satal before turning on the Jedi. (FNU, DA, DLS)

Keto, Sebban
a native of the planet Empress Teta, this man could trace his family's roots back to Satal Keto. A wealthy noble, Sebban Keto owned a number of shops and restaurants in the city of Cinnagar during the height of the New Order. Like his distant forebears, Sebban Keto secretly studied the lore and teachings of the ancient Sith, and used his command of the Dark Side of the Force to manipulate local political and business leaders. He maintained the Krath tradition, and it was rumored that Sebban also was the leader of a Sith cult based on a planet in the Core Worlds. (PH)

Keto, Serra
this young woman was a student at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, during the height of the Clone Wars. (LAWS, OWS)

Ketrann
a huge carnivore with four long fangs, the ketrann was native to Alk'lellish III. Ketrann fed on the herding metarshi, leaping onto its prey with powerful hind legs and taking it down with several quick bites. (TB, TBSB)

Ketren Noor
this was a noted figure in Anzat history. (UANT)

Ketrias Gorran
this was a noted member of Chagrian history. (UANT)

Kett
this man was the Captain of the Admiral Korvin, and served the Trade Federation for many years before being assigned to the task force Wilhuff Tarkin dispatched to Zonama Sekot. Kett's record showed that he had participated in some of the Trade Federation's most heinous military actions, a fact that he was at once proud of and worried about. He chafed at the prospect of being assimilated or forcibly retired when the Old Republic took control of the Trade Federation's fleet, in the aftermath of the Battle of Naboo. (RP)

Kett
this young Corellian man served under Urias Xhaxin as a sensor operator aboard the Free Lance. (PP)

Kettch
this was the name of a non-existent Ewok who applied for a position in Wraith Squadron. He was originally the creation of Wes Janson, who tried to pull a fast on one Wedge Antilles. Wedge vowed to get revenge, but Kettch took on a life of his own. He continually showed up in the cockpit of Wedge's X-Wing when he least expected it, and served as the squadron's unofficial mascot until the Wraiths became pirates in order to attract the attention of Warlord Zsinj. When the Wraiths were chosen to assist in the stealing of the Razor's Kiss, Wedge used the stuffed dummy of Kettch to hide his own identity, and Kettch quickly became one of the best pilots in the Hawk-bat pirate squadron. When word leaked out that the Hawk-bats had an Ewok pilot, Zsinj suspected that he had escaped from the Binring Biomedical facilty's Epsilon Wing along with Voort saBinring. This vexed him, and forced him to move the facility from Saffalore to a position on the Iron Fist for security reasons. (WS, IF, SOC)

Kettch's Drill
this starfighter maneuver, developed by Wraith Squadron, was designed to gain surprise whenever a squadron was opposed by two or more waves of enemy starfighters. Instead of swinging around and engaging the first wave of enemies in a dogfight, the drill involved the squadron plowing straight through to the second wave, taking as many of the first wave as possible in the fly-by.

this nomadic race of insectile humanoids was native to the planet Ket. They were quite peaceful, but their physical form gave them a fearsome appearance.

Kev, Dayla
this woman was a Mission Commander with the Galactic Scout Corps, some forty years before the Battle of Yavin. She was believed to have been killed on an uncharted jungle planet, when one of her team - Milac Troper - returned to report that she was killed. In fact, Kev and her Lieutenant, Hereven, had been attacked by a gasnit, and Troper had left them to die, fleeing in panic. Hereven had tried to rescue her, and both scouts ended up hiding for more than six months in the caves located beneath the planet's surface. Kev and Hereven soon fell in love, but Hereven was killed during a hunting mission. A few days later, Dayla discovered that she was pregnant with Hereven's child. Upon giving birth to the boy, Dayla named him Hereven in honor of his father. They lived together in hiding for fifteen years, and discovered that they had a connection to the Force. They were rescued by a group of Wookiee explorers, who tried to sell them into slavery. Using subtle manipulations of the Force, Dayla was able to convince the Wookiees to let them go free. Instead, she convinced the Wookiees to join her in forming a safari hosting business on the planet. She changed her name to Lady Ahrkan, and made a small fortune by the height of the New Order. She never forgot or forgave Milac Troper for leaving her, however. Dayla eventually met up with Captain Roogak of the Ithorian herdship Galactic Horizon, earning his trust while virtually bankrupting herself to gain it. Her desire to maintain the relationship paid off when young Hereven discovered that Troper was going to be aboard the Galactic Horizon to negotiate a peace treaty. Dayla called in every favor owed to her by Captain Roogak, and got several gasnits placed aboard the herdship's ecosystem. Her plans to exact revenge on Troper were nearly thwarted when she encountered the team of freelance mercenaries Troper had hired to protect himself. Dayla and her son, Hereven, were captured and arrested for the attempted murder of Troper. (GMR6)

Kev, Hereven
this young boy was born nearly forty years before the Battle of Yavin, the son of Dayla Kev and her Lieutenant, Hereven. The boy was named for his father, who survived a gasnit attack but was later killed during a hunting mission. Hereven and his mother were rescued when he was fifteen, by a Wookiee slaving party. Their connection to the Force allowed Hereven and his mother to persuade the Wookiees to let them go free, and even convinced the Wookiees to join them in starting a safari hosting operation on the remote world. Hereven maintained his mother's hatred for Milac Troper, and agreed to avenge her death if she were to ever die on the jungle world. It was Hereven who, some twenty-five years later, discovered that Milac Troper was going to be aboard the Galactic Horizon to negotiate a treaty. Unknown to Dayla, Hereven had been absorbing her hatred of Troper into his own being, and had been turning slowly toward the Dark Side of the Force. When Hereven confronted Troper aboard the herdship, he used his Dark Side connection to attack Troper himself. He nearly succeeded in killing Troper, but was stopped by a team of freelance mercenaries Troper had hired as bodyguards. Hereven and his mother were soon taken into custody for the attempted murder of Troper. (GMR6)
