Dix Rivan

Dix Rivan, known as Dixie, was a starfighter pilot of the Rebel Alliance's elite Rogue Squadron. He flew as Rogue Five in the months following the Battle of Hoth, during the Galactic Civil War. Although Rivan was a shy, introverted type, he considered his fellow Rogue Squadron pilots his family. As the squadron's rear guard, he was always watching out for his friends in combat, flying to their rescue when needed.

Rivan participated in Rogue Squadron's mission to help Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia Organa, and Lando Calrissian attempt to rescue the carbonite-encased Han Solo from the bounty hunter Boba Fett on the moon of Gall in 3.5 ABY. As Rogue Squadron engaged Imperial naval forces in space above Gall, Rivan's X-wing starfighter was destroyed by an attacking TIE Fighter. He was the only member of Rogue Squadron killed during the battle, in which the Rebels failed to free Solo.
