Legend

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.
