Tomer Darpen

A career diplomat with the New Republic, Tomer Darpen began his career during the Rebellion as a starfighter pilot in the Tierfon Yellow Aces. During his brief stint he earned the name 'Ejector Darpen', through an involuntary exit from a damaged Y-wing that he almost crash-landed. Wes Janson, who served with him, recalled that he was always one step above being an outright black marketeer.

Darpen switched to the Diplomatic Corps soon after where his talent for persuation and manipulation were put to good use. He met Janson again on Adumar in 13 ABY when the latter was part of a four-man team of renowned pilots sent to 'negotiate' the planet's entry into the New Republic through aerial duels with the pilot-obsessed Adumari.

Darpen was also the head of Intelligence on Adumar and frequently clashed with Wedge Antilles. The latter deplored the immoral pandering to Adumari violence and Darpen eventually persuaded the local ruler that Wedge and co. wanted an honorable death in combat. The pilots escaped and later put an end to Darpen's machinations. The diplomat was arrested and given a choice between New Republic and Adumari justice and choose the former. His subsequent fate is unknown.
