Philap Bygar

Philap Bygar was a human male who served as a general in the Rebel Alliance's High Command during the Galactic Civil War. In 3 ABY, he was present at High Command's Echo Base on the planet Hoth, where he greeted members of the Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry, also referred to as Twilight Company, who were escorting Imperial defector Governor Everi Chalis. Bygar made sure to commend the unit for its accomplishments.

When one Twilight Company member, First Sergeant Hazram Namir, became involved in a fight at the base, Bygar disciplined the soldier but did not inform the company's captain, Micha Evon. Soon after, the Galactic Empire invaded the base, scattering the Alliance. Bygar died, and his death was reported sometime after to Namir when he contacted a rebel relay station.
