Qorl

Qorl was a male human that fought as a TIE Fighter pilot for the Second Imperium, a splinter faction of the Galactic Empire, where he was stationed on the first Death Star, who was shot down during the Battle of Yavin. Crashing on Yavin 4, he managed to repair his fighter and participated in a small skirmish the next day. He encountered Luke Skywalker above Yavin and tried to shoot him down, but Luke cut into his ship, forcing Qorl to crash. After the brief brawl with the Rebel on the surface, Qorl lost consciousness but was left alive.

He eked out an existence in the jungle, until encountering the Solo children and other Jedi trainees 23 years later. After successfully escaping the moon, he linked up with the Second Imperium splinter movement, training their pilots and leading an assault on the jungle moon.

Shot down a second time, Qorl returned to the jungle where he would live undisturbed until the Yuuzhan Vong War once again brought him into contact with a Solo, this time Anakin. Together they escaped the moon.
