Escalon, Carter
this Alliance courier was captured by Imperial forces on Coruscant, shortly after the Battle of Hoth, and forced to work in the spice mines of the planet Sevarcos. He was later sold to Lord Cassius Nolath Rha as a slave, but was eventually rescued by the Alliance team which posed as Ray Carantar's pit crew during the wind-rider race which took place during the Festival of the High Winds. Like many couriers during the Galactic Civil War, Escalon carried his messages in a special vessel imbedded in his skull.
