Kane Griggs

Kane Griggs was a Human male from the frozen planet of Kerensik in the Botor Enclave. Griggs eventually traveled off-world to attend an Imperial university, where he studied politics and planned on living a comfortable life as an economist. However, he cared little for Imperial ideology or outside conflicts. During his first year at the university, Griggs met an Alderaanian student named Marfa Thorbin and formed a close relationship with her, eventually proposing marriage to her. Thorbin accepted and returned home to Alderaan to tell her parents, but she was killed when the planet was destroyed by the first Death Star.

Soon after the Battle of Endor, Griggs quit his job at the Botor Income Ministry and joined the New Republic Defense Fleet to avenge Thorbin. In 10 ABY, Griggs served aboard the liberated New Republic Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Emancipator as a navigator and participated in the Battle of Calamari.
