Norath Kev

Norath Kev was a Duros male from the planet Duro who operated as a Resistance spy on the Outer Rim planet Varkana alongside his astromech droid, 2BR-NTB. Kev tracked First Order activity by monitoring black market material shipments on the world and gathering a list of First Order sympathizers and collaborators. However, the vendor Lechee turned the spy in to the First Order in 34 ABY, forcing him and his droid to flee and activate a distress call. The bounty hunter Ax Tagrin destroyed 2BR-NTB and captured Kev, keeping him aboard his ship, the Dalkor Dagger. Resistance operatives Kazuda Xiono and Jarek Yeager, the pirate Synara San, and the astromech droid CB-23 traveled to Varkana after receiving Kev's distress signal, finding the spy's datapad and data rod containing his First Order black market work and keeping a copy of it.

Though briefly trapped on the Dalkor Dagger, Kev and his rescuers managed to crash the vessel, with him and Xiono fleeing the scene via speeder bike while the rest of the group fought Tagrin. The Varkana spy and his newfound colleague worked together to save Yeager, San, and CB-23—whom the bounty hunter had captured—by stealing the armor of two stormtroopers as disguises and freeing them from First Order custody. After another brief skirmish with Tagrin and later with First Order TIE fighters, the group's shuttle successfully fled the Varkana system and boarded the supertanker fuel depot Colossus. In the time afterward, Kev continued working for the Resistance by accepting a blaster shipment on the Outer Rim planet Mon Cala and scheduling a rendezvous with Xiono near the Outer Rim planet Batuu, though the latter had to abandon the meetup when a First Order probe droid attacked his ship.

As part of the Resistance's Jade Squadron under the command of Resistance pilot Venisa Doza, Kev traveled to the Colossus with her and the pilot Hugh Sion. The squadron and three of the Colossus ace pilots—Xiono, Torra Doza, and Hype Fazon—traveled to the Outer Rim planet Dantooine and attempted to escort three shuttles of Resistance recruits off the world. One of the shuttles was destroyed despite Kev and Torra's best efforts to protect it, forcing Jade Squadron, the ace pilots, and the two remaining vessels to leave the ship behind and jump to hyperspace. Not long afterward, Kev flew alongside his squadron during a battle in the Barabesh system and made attack passes on the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Thunderer engines. With the assistance of the Colossus and its Ace Squadron, Jade Squadron defeated the Star Destroyer and celebrated in the cantina Aunt Z's Tavern afterward as part of Team Colossus.
