Lifehold, Dannen
this smuggler operated from a base on Dohu VII. Originally born on a Mid-Rim world, he stowed away on a smuggling freighter bound for Alderaan when he was fourteen. He was discovered by the ship's owner, Captain Twolz, who agreed to keep Dannen on as long as he worked for his passage. Twolz treated Dannen like a son, and over a period of five years he taught the boy everything he knew. Dannen became a marksman and gunner, eventually surpassing even Twolz's skills. After Twolz was killed on Niian, Dannen and Krell teamed up for a short time, during which Dannen indebted himself to Linkaas in order to purchase his own ship, the Lifeline. Dannen worked for eight years to pay off the ship, working with his mechanic, Feq. After Feq's death at the hands of an over-zealous Imperial inspection officer, Dannen began to hate the Empire. It was Lifehold who rescued Brion Peck's assault team from Rafft, after a homing beacon placed on their ship gave them away.
