Brock Lar

Brock Lar was once a high ranking warrior of his clan from the planet Gryphon. However, upon the death of his youngest son, he realized that there was no hope for peace and so left to find a peaceful planet to start a new life and soon came upon Alderaan. The people of the planet listened to his tale and accepted his family to their planet with open arms. Brock later became the first mate aboard the starship Martika and thought his new life was off to a good start. Unfortunately disaster soon struck when he returned from a long shipping job to find out that the Galactic Empire had destroyed Alderaan with their new weapon; the first Death Star. With his family all dead, he went back to his warring ways, declaring that vengeance was sweet and that he would not rest until all of Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin's blood line was erased from the Galaxy.

Behind the scenes
Brock Lar was created by Matthew Berry and Craig Farr, two Star Wars fans, as part of the Design An Alien contest held in the Star Wars Galaxy Magazines. Though the entry was not picked as a winner, it was given an honorable mention in Star Wars Galaxy 8 and so it is not known exactly how canon the character is.
