Odom, Meck
this young man was Kyle Katarn's roommate, during their training at the Imperial Academy on Carida. Meck was also Kyle's only true friend. Following their graduation, Meck was stationed on the planet Danuta, in the lab where the plans for the first Death Star were maintained. When Kyle joined the Alliance and tried to infiltrate the lab, Meck agreed to help his friend out. Meck arranged for a series of security checks to occur, resulting in a temporary shutdown of the base's perimeter locks and defenses, allowing Kyle to get into the facility and steal the plans. For his part in the action, Kyle allowed Meck to "survive" the assault. Meck had positioned himself in the command center where the plans were stored, and Kyle "shot" Meck when he entered the room. Meck rolled to the ground and hid, and later was "saved" when the Imperial rescue teams arrived to clean up the mess.
