Rutowan Cannter

Rutowan Cannter was an Alderaanian commander who was part of the Alderaan Flotilla of refugees who survived the destruction of the planet Alderaan in 0 BBY.Star Wars: Galactic Atlas When it became apparent that the former prison planet Wobani needed emergency aid after it was abandoned by the Galactic Empire, Senator Leia Organa of the New Republic Senate contacted the Alderaanian refugees, knowing that they would respond. Within days, a convoy of three heavy freighters carrying food and bacta was chartered, paid for, and piloted by Alderaanians led by Cannter.
They delivered the supplies, but it was not enough for all of Wobani. A file titled "Alderaanian Convoy to Wobani—Leia Organa's Official Request" which covered Cannter's involvement in the convoy was stored in the "Relief Efforts" section of the New Republic Archives. In 35 ABY, the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned Cannter's leadership of the convoy in hisStar Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire.
