Muran

"Rapier Four. Standing by.''" "''You see, you should all follow Muran's example, there. You hear how nicely Rapier Four reported in, without editorializing or anything?"

- Muran and Poe Dameron

Muran was a male New Republic T-85 X-wing pilot who flew under the callsign "Rapier Four." About thirty years after the Battle of Endor, Poe Dameron, Rapier Leader, received a distress signal from the Yissira Zyde in the Mirrin sector. Muran and the rest of Rapier Squadron jumped to lightspeed and found forces of the First Order boarding the distressed freighter. Rapier Squadron engaged the hijackers, but the First Order successfully commandeered the ship and entered hyperspace. Muran was caught in the ship's wake, and his X-wing starfighter was destroyed before he could eject. Dameron felt Muran's death was avoidable, and blamed the First Order for it.

Behind the scenes
Muran first appeared in Before the Awakening, a junior novel written by Greg Rucka and published in 2015.
