Torch

Canon Linked from 12 articles

Torch was the astromech droid companion of rebel pilot and later Resistance pilot Venisa Doza. He accompanied her on many missions, including to the worlds Bakura and Lehon. During one of the initial training sessions that Venisa gave her daughter, Torra, as a starfighter pilot, Torra ejected Torch from his astromech socket. Torch was good friends with Jarek Yeager's astromech, Bucket.

When Torch and Venisa were captured along with their X-wing by Agent Tierny of the First Order, the droid pretended to have been fried and rendered inoperable in order to assist in Doza's escape from the agent's Resurgent-class Star Destroyer, the Thunderer, piloting a TIE/fo space superiority fighter out of the capital ship's main hangar as a diversion before ejecting from it with his rocket boosters to rejoin Venisa on her X-wing.

With their X-wing, the pair later participated in running the blockade of Dantooine and rescuing Tamara Ryvora as part of Jade Squadron.
