Gav Daragon

Gav Daragon was a key player in the Great Hyperspace War.

Born circa 5,020 BBY, Gav and his sister Jori were chosen for Jedi training, but they refused, choosing instead to continue working as hyperspace navigators with their parents Hok and Timar.

When Hok and Timar were killed while delivering supplies to Teta's soldiers in the Battle of Kirrek, Gav and Jori took the Starbreaker 12 and began mapping out new hyperspace routes.

After severely damaging the Starbreaker 12, Gav and Jori soon found themselves with a price on their heads, put on by Merchant Lord Ssk Kahorr after one of his drone ships crashed on Primus Goluud while using one of the Daragons' hyperspace lanes. After narrowly escaping a pair of assassins with the help of Odan-Urr and Memit Nadill, Gav and Jori stole back the impounded Starbreaker 12 and, pursued by Cinnagar security forces, punched in random coordinates, sending them to Korriban.

Gav and Jori were immediately taken prisoner, as the Sith wildly debated over what to do with them. Locked in the icy, underground prison in the Sith Fortress on Ziost, the Daragons soon learn from Simus that they are to be executed as soon as possible. However, in the first step of his elaborate plan to become Dark Lord, Naga Sadow and his loyal group of Massassi attack the Ziost prison, freeing Gav and Jori, and making it look like an attack orchestrated and carried out by the Republic. Gav and Jori are sent to Sadow's private fortress on Khar Shian, as Naga is successfully crowned Dark Lord of the Sith, in lieu of the "Republic attack."

Gav waits on Khar Shian for days, slowly being converted to Naga Sadow's cause, until the Dark Lord is ready to attack the Republic. When he is, he appoints Gav as commander of the Koros Major invasion, and Sadow's fleet flies off into the Republic. When they arrive at Koros Major, Gav flies down to the surface to look for his sister, flanked by a group of Massassi bodyguards. As he enters Aarrba's repair dock, the Massassi kill Aarrba, apparently seeing him as a threat. Jori enters at that very moment, and attacks Gav with a lightsaber, but Gav is able to escape and flee to Primus Goluud, where Naga Sadow's meditation sphere is.

Gav fires on the sphere, breaking Sadow's concentration, and giving the Republic soldiers the advantage in the Battle of Coruscant. Sadow lures Gav onto his meditation sphere to discuss this, and Gav foolishly does so. He quickly discovers that Sadow isn't there anymore. A fleet of Koros ships show up, along with Jori, who had followed Gav to Primus Goluud.

Gav transmits the coordinates to the Sith Empire to Empress Teta, telling her that the Empire is now completely defenseless with all of its military off invading the Republic. Naga Sadow's fleet appears, and fires what resembles lightning at Primus Goluud. Gav tells Teta and Jori to leave, which they and Sadow's fleet do, just before the red supergiant goes nova, destroying Naga Sadow's meditation sphere, and Gav along with it.
