Elassar Targon

Elassar Targon was a superstitious male Devaronian from Devaron. He joined the New Republic Defense Force and eventually served in Wraith Squadron as the unit medic in the campaign against Warlord Zsinj. As one of the newer members of the squadron, Targon suffered some bantering from his fellow pilots, but he took the kidding in good stead. In their mission planning, Targon advocated a more aggressive approach to combating Zsinj, but he was rebutted by fellow squadmate Shalla Nelprin. He participated in several missions against Zsinj, including the Battle of Vahaba and the Battle of Selaggis. After Wraith Squadron was shifted over to become an Intelligence unit, Targon stayed in the unit and participated in an operation to eliminate Imperial admiral Kosh Teradoc. He was still in active service as of the Yuuzhan Vong War. He was present for part of the Battle of Borleias, but was later assigned to accompany several other members of the Wraiths, the scientist Danni Quee, and three Jedi to occupied Coruscant. On Coruscant, he helped investigate the former galactic capital's condition and eventually returned to Borleias once the mission was completed.
