- "Back when I threw my lot in with the Partisans, that was a right steady gig for old Cycyed Ock. No, I was never much of a zealot, but I was savvy enough to say the right things."
- ―Cycyed Ock
Cycyed Ock was a male[2] Keredian[1] who was a member of Saw Gerrera's partisans movement during their insurgency against the Galactic Empire on the moon Jedha.[2] In the year 1 BBY,[5] Ock was present in the partisans' base[3] in the Catacombs of Cadera[2] when a group of captives including Gerrera's adoptive daughter Jyn Erso were brought in. Shortly after their arrival, the partisans were forced to flee when the Empire destroyed the nearby Jedha City with their Death Star superweapon, creating a blast wave that also destroyed the catacombs. Some time after surviving these events, Ock and Kullbee Sperado found their way to the opposite hemisphere of the moon. After discovering a smuggler's guide left behind by Shesslaria, the two left Jedha in hopes of finding Maz Kanata's treasure on Iskalon with their old crew, which consisted of Nersiton, Isin, and Rufork Tamson. While initially seizing the treasure, they were soon captured and thrown into Megalox Beta Penitentiary.[4]
Equipment[]
Ock had a cyber-optic wire connected directly to his brain which granted him sharper vision, allowing him to analyze kyber crystal deposits, examine microcircuitry and throw his vibrorang weapon with unerring accuracy.[2]
