Temmin Wexley

Temmin "Snap" Wexley was a human male who lived approximately thirty years after the Battle of Endor. As a teenager, Wexley assisted the New Republic in disrupting a secret Imperial meeting on the planet Akiva. Wexley later became a captain and respected recon pilot in Blue Squadron of the Resistance Starfighter Corps.

Early life
Temmin Wexley was born on the planet Akiva to Norra and Brentin Lore Wexley. At an early age, Temmin was separated from his father, who was arrested by Imperial forces on the charge of carrying messages for the Rebel Alliance. Temmin's mother soon left Akiva to serve as a Rebel pilot. Now completely alone, Temmin learned to take care of himself at a young age, turning his parents house into a spare parts shop. During this time, Wexley repurposed an old B1 battle droid into an extremely efficient killing machine, appropriately naming it "Mister Bones". With the loss of his mother to the Rebellion and his father taken into Imperial custody, Temmin gained a certain hatred for both factions. It wasn't until an uprising against the Empire on his home planet that forced him to choose sides in the war.

He was reunited with his mother three years after her departure when she returned to Akiva to aid him against the lackeys of the Sullustan gangster Surat Nuat. Temmin took his mother on a speeder bike through Myrra; the two were pursued by several stormtroopers, whom Temmin managed to evade. Wexley and his mother were then given shelter by Esmelle, and Esmelle's wife Shirene.

The First Order-Resistance conflict
Within the next thirty years, Temmin joined the Resistance and became a captain in Blue Squadron. He was given the nickname "Snap" and earned a reputation as the Resistance Starfighter Corps' best recon flier.

Using the information his reconnaissance of Starkiller Base had provided, Temmin Wexley helped the other members of the Resistance plan an assault on the superweapon that would hopefully destroy it.

Personality and traits
Temmin was an extremely intelligent yet stubborn young boy; traits passed down from his parents and necessary to survive on the impoverished planet of Akiva. He had a knack for mechanical tinkering (as seen in his modification and creation of "Mister Bones") and displayed impressive abilities when piloting speeders through the narrow streets and on the rooftops of Myrra.

In his free time, Temmin Wexley liked to play the board game "Galactic Expansion."

Behind the scenes
The 15-year-old Temmin Wexley first appeared in the 2015 novel Aftermath, which was written by Chuck Wendig. The character later appeared as an adult in Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, in which he was portrayed by Greg Grunberg and referred to as "Snap" Wexley.
