Legend

Zev grew up on Kestic Station, near Bestne. He and his parents were sympathetic to the Alliance, and worked to supply the Alliance with arms. When the Empire located the station and discovered their gun-running scheme, the Star Destroyer Merciless was sent to destroy the station. Zev, who had also supported the Alliance, was able to escape the destruction. However, he blamed the Alliance for the deaths of his parents, and set out on his own to become a free trader. After a few months of reflection, Zev realized that he had actually been responsible for the destruction of Kestic Station, after he learned that the leak of information had occurred when he had told a "friend" about the gun-running he was doing. So, he returned to fray and rejoined the Alliance soon after. He singlehandedly held off three TIE fighters during the Alliance's evacuation of the Alis Point base. He later served at the Alliance's Echo Base on Hoth, and was part of the Rogue Squadron of snowpseeder pilots, serving as Rogue Two under Luke Skywalker. It was Zev who found Han Solo and Commander Skywalker after they had been stuck outside all night, following a wampa attack that nearly claimed Skywalker's life. Unfortunately for the Alliance, Zev was killed shortly afterward, during the Battle of Hoth.
