Noell Ciro

Noell Ciro was the younger brother of Keleman Ciro, a starfighter pilot, and a member of the FarStar crew.

Early life
A native of Dolomar, Noell Ciro was a member of the Dolomar resistance like his brother, and assisted with the ousting of the Imperial presence from their world. He was an experienced swoop racer, and joined the New Republic with his brother as a way to get off Dolomar.

New Republic
Scoring well in initial simulator testing, Noell was accepted into pilot training at the Sluis Van Outer Starfighter Base. He sailed through the training program, and entered regular service. Noell fought in several campaigns against Imperial forces before being assigned to the task force charged with liberating Kal'Shebbol.

Onboard the FarStar
Noell was at the top of the list of pilots to be transferred to the FarStar to support its mission. With his brother in command, Noell saw it as his responsibility to facilitate a smooth working relationship between him and the fighter commander, Lieutenant Ranna Gorjaye.

Shortly after the mission began, the FarStar responded to a distress call from the planet Kolatill. During the subsequent Battle of Kolatill, Noell was part of the starfighter defence attempting to stop TIE Bombers from dropping biological weapons on the city of Domaz. During the battle, Noell's fighter took a hit that disabled the weapons systems. However, one Bomber was nearing its target site, and Noell was the only ship in range. He rammed the Bomber, destroying both ships and killing himself, but saved millions of lives in the process.

Personality and traits
On Dolomar, Noell was wisecracking and cocky. After joining the New Republic, he came to understand the seriousness of his duties, and became a more thoughtful and serious individual. As a result, he helped young pilots with an abundance of enthusiasm to become more serious and focused to stop them being killed.

Before he died at Kolatill, he was excited to be serving under his brother on the FarStar.
