Legend

this tall, white-haired man joined the Alliance on the Forest Moon of Endor when he accompanied Fenn Shysa on a mission to pledge Mandalore's support to the Alliance of Free Planets. Bey was half-Corellian on his father's side, although he never knew his mother. Her ture identity was later discovered to have been Krai H'voc, who had been dispatched to Corellia to spy on the Empire. However, she left the family shortly after his birth. His father took out his frustration and anger on Bey, using words and beatings to reconcile his own emotions. Eventually, Bey grew to manhood, spending part of his adolescent years as a friend to a young orphan named Han Solo. It was Bey who first taught Han to fight on the streets. Bey's heroic exploits on behalf of his native people became the stuff of legends during the height of the New Order. He lost his left eye in a struggle to free other Corellians, and he wore a patch over the eye as a reminder of the cruelty of other people. His Corellian ancestry endeared him to Han Solo, who was jealous of Leia Organa's attention to Shysa. Bey agreed to travel to Godo with Han, as part of a mission to assist the Godoans in defeating a mysterious plague that was killing their planet. However, it was on the Forest Moon of Endor that Bey revealed he was also half Nagai, and that he had the Nagai forces to Endor in an effort to destroy the Alliance. His mother had been an advance scout for the Nagai many years earlier, and had seen that the galaxy would be ripe for conquest. He also revealed that his brother was the individual known as Knife. Bey then fled the Alliance to rejoin the Nagai, but he retained some loyalty to Han and Corellia. For this reason, Bey infiltrated the ranks of the Tofs led by Prince Sereno, hoping to provide support in case of an attack. He also used his position to relay information about the Tofs to the Alliance of Free Planets. His chance act came when Sereno captured Leia Organa and Knife on Saijo. Just as Lumiya was going to kill them both, Bey shot Lumiya. He then removed his disguise and revealed that he had been with the Tofs all along.
