Forten

Forten, formerly designated JL-4410, was a human who served as a stormtrooper in the First Order's Company 77. When ordered to fire on civilians at the Battle of Ansett Island, the entire company refused and defected from the First Order, giving up their former designations and choosing new names. After a period of turmoil, he and the rest of the company came to reside on the ocean moon Kef Bir, where they domesticated a herd of orbaks. Forten became chief groomer for the animals, and was charged with their well-being. He came to consider his own mount, Zeegar, as his closest friend.

In 35 ABY, the YT-1300 light freighter known as the Millennium Falcon crashed on Kef Bir and Forten accompanied the company's leader, Jannah, in riding to see if the starship's crew were friend or foe. The crew, who were members of the Resistance, sought a Sith wayfinder that was located on the moon, and Jannah offered them help in their search. After the wayfinder was discovered, Forten and the rest of Company 77 then aided the Resistance at the Battle of Exegol, where Forten and the other orbak riders battled Sith troopers on the surface of the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast. Forten ultimately survived the battle and returned with the Resistance to the moon Ajan Kloss to celebrate their victory.
