Legend

this Arcona, known for his nasty salt addiction and his ability to fire most starship weapons systems, was also a Force-sensitive individual who joined the crew of the Jolly Man during the hunt for a Yuuzhan Vong yammosk. He had been a student at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, until he consumed too much of a nerfloaf made by Kenth Hamner. The salt in the meal was too much for his system, and he was forced to leave the moon in order to maintain his salt habit. He eventually met up with the Jedi Master Eelysa, who helped him focus his energies on recovering from his addiction and growing into a Jedi. It was Izal Waz who developed the technique of using the Force to collect ambient light, creating a "glowball" which hid a starship from the alien invaders as if it was inside a small star. Izal approached Han and Leia Organa Solo on Corellia, shortly before Coruscant fell to the Yuuzan Vong, on orders from Eelysa to get the Jedi off Corellia aboard his ship, the Sureshot. Izal Waz was ultimately one of the handful of Jedi Knights to survive the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong, and served as one of the Jedi who flew an X-Wing during the years leading up to the Qoribu Crisis.
