Breg

"I had a good teacher."

- Dak Ralter, referring to Breg, when asked about his natural piloting and gunnery talents

Breg was a starfighter pilot of the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

History
Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Breg crashed on the planet Kalist VI during a reconnaissance mission. He was captured by the Galactic Empire and imprisoned in the planet's labor camp. Fortunately for Breg, the Empire was unaware of his Rebel affiliation, or he would have faced an Imperial interrogation droid, or worse.

He made quick friends with a seventeen year old named Dak Ralter, son of political prisoners, who was born into captivity on Kalist VI. Breg was a free spirit and had quite an impression on Ralter, telling him of a life of freedom that existed beyond the transparisteel dome of the prison. Together they planned their escape from the complex.

They planned to steel an Imperial prison barge and blast away from the planet. They first shorted out the camp's inner and outer power fences, and managed to make it past the sentries. Stealing two slightly-used guard uniforms, they were able to gain access to landing area with relative ease. They then triggered a reactor alarm and staged a prearranged power outage in order to board the barge. But before they could lift off, an Imperial stormtrooper became aware of what was happening and boarded the ship in pursuit. The stormtrooper shot Breg before Ralter could react. Ralter then shot the trooper dead.

Breg lay wounded and dying on the cockpit floor. This left the piloting duties up to Ralter, who managed to take off and enter hyperspace with Breg's verbal assistance. He instructed him to go to the Rebel base on the planet Tierfon. By the time they reached their destination, Breg's condition had badly deteriorated. He died shortly after Ralter miraculously managed to land the ship. Ralter would go on to join the Rebellion's pilot corps in memory of his fallen friend.
