Yolan Bren

Yolan Bren was a Solem poet and a Rebel leader.

Biography
Yolan governed the planet alongside his brother, until he realized the injustice of the Galactic Empire and defected.

During the Battle of Solem, Yolan Bren's arm was badly wounded in an explosion. His soldier friends could not let him die because they could not win the battle without his confidence and leadership. So he was taken by his most trusted soldiers and friends to be healed and hide in an underground sewer system in the city of G'ai Solem. He was found by the bounty hunter Boba Fett because the shoemaker Rabutz had tried to warn Bren that Fett was in the city and looking for him, but Rabutz was followed by Fett. Fett then blasted into the sewer and started shooting and killed many soldiers because of his powerful armour and weapons. Bren did not want to leave his men, but was in no condition to fight and escaped through the escape tunnel with his soldier Lol. He and his men that stayed behind and survived, got on speeder bikes and fled from Fett. They were trying to get to the caves known as Kandaas but Fett had his own speeder and pursued them, after he had been hopefully left for dead by Bren's men that stayed behind, because a pile of rocks fell on him. They tried to fight but Fett's skills were too great and his armour was too strong, and since there were only about four bikes Bren's men and Bren had to share. Fett had already shot down two of the speeder bikes and killed Yarda and Daron. Bren was forced to land and surrender himself over to Fett and command his remaining soldiers (there were only five left) to do nothing. He was then brought to his brother Malvander by Fett. In his custody, Bren was rescued by Ardal, Tark, Naia, Lol and other native solem soldiers, despite Bren's orders. Ardal was the about to kill Malvander when Yolan stoped him because he thought the empire would just replace him with someone else even worse. They then left the palace and (because the battle was over for the time being) made Malvander live as they had lived. His fate after that is unknown.
