Legend

this woman was one of the best starfighter pilots the Empire recruited from the planet Alderaan. She was tops in her class, and moved quickly up the Imperial ranks until she was given the command of the 128th TIE Interceptor Squadron shortly before the Battle of Hoth. However, by this time, Kasan had begun questioning her loyalties. The destruction of Alderaan by the first Death Star was an emotional blow, for Kasan dearly loved her family and friends who died in the cataclysm. She felt that she could no longer serve a government that would wantonly destroy people for its own ambitions. When the 128th was sent to intercept Rogue Squadron on the planet Gerrard V, Kasan offered herself and her ship as a defector, and joined the Alliance.
