Morts Werl

Morts Werl was a Human who lived during the Galactic Civil War, a conflict between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire. Fair-skinned with gray hair and a mustache, Werl joined the Alliance by 0 BBY. In that same year, Werl was present in the Great Temple, the Alliance's main headquarters on the moon Yavin 4, and attended a briefing held by Alliance General Jan Dodonna, who discussed the Alliance's plans to attack the Imperial DS-1 Orbital Battle Station superweapon.

The Alliance's starfighters destroyed the DS-1 Orbital Battle Station in the subsequent Battle of Yavin. After the battle, a ceremony was held in the Great Temple's Grand Audience Chamber. Werl, who attained the rank of captain by then, was present at the ceremony, during which the Medal of Bravery was awarded to two of the victorious Rebel fighters: Luke Skywalker and Han Solo. Werl wore a dark green uniform with a lighter green cap.
