## **Overview**

**Ashar Fogg** was a charismatic pilot, slicer, and fringer that flew with Arrow Squadron during their mission to the Tingel Arm. He enlisted with the Rebel Alliance just after the Battle of Endor and was quickly assigned to the Starfighter Corp as a Y-Wing bomber pilot, which was in desperate need of pilots. Sent to Arrow Squadron to help flesh out their ranks, Ashar was conversational, friendly, and eager to begin their mission.

However, no one was aware that Fogg, which was not even his real identity, was a talented spy whose real mission had yet to be uncovered.

His call sign was Arrow Three.

## **Biography**

### **Earliest Encounters**

Very little was known about Fogg prior to his enlistment with the Alliance. During his recruitment process, he had told his fellow cadets that he had heard about the destruction of the Second Death Star and felt compelled to join the fight. This was not an unusual sentiment as Alliance ranks were bolstered by a wave of new recruits following their dramatic victory over Endor.

What the Alliance was lacking, however, were trained pilots. The Battle of Endor had severely impacted the available number of active duty pilots. During his application process, Fogg had indicated he that he had grown up on Coruscant and was a trained pilot. After passing a few rudimentary exams, he was shipped off as a replacement pilot for the Starfighter Corp.

Fogg arrived with a group of other pilots to the main Alliance Fleet. Almost immediately, the pilots were randomly assigned to units in need of recruits. Fogg was not surprised when he was sent to Arrow Squadron - he had hacked into the assignment log and altered the files to "randomly" assign him to the unit. This was not the first, nor the last, of his deceptions.

### **A Careful Plan**

The charismatic Fogg was quick to get to know his fellow pilots. He made fast friends with the quick-talking commander, Lieutenant Udas, fellow new-comer Reska Myks, and veteran bomber pilot Danic Polis as well as the hard scrabble DeMeers siblings - Nath and Saffron. There was an immediate chemistry between Saffron and Fogg.

Fogg assisted in the supply requisition for the Arrows deployment to the Tingel Arm. He worked along Polis to secure bombs and torpedoes for the Arrow's extended mission. The squadron had no idea how long they'd be deployed, but the Alliance had, for once, a surplus of bombs and equipment. Fogg made sure that the Arrows had everything they needed and then some.

When the Arrows were deployed, Fogg co-piloted the shuttle used to ferry the supplies to "The Arm" with his R2-unit flying his ship. Flying the ship was Sorshara Bray. While in transit, Fogg used this time, as well has his undisclosed skills as a slicer, to delicate hack the shuttle's computer system and remove sensitive data relating to the Arrow's mission. His actions went undetected and his secret mission continued unabated.

### **Arrival in The Arm**

With the arrival of the Arrows in the Tingel Arm in 5 ABY, Fogg and the others set about establishing a base of operations. They ultimately selected the rolling plains of the planet Ekibo. The lush, grassy planet was a colony world for the war-like Trianii people. Fellow Arrow Squadron member, Petrasa, was a Trianii and had recommended the position after securing the tentative blessing of his people.

It was here, once the Arrows had started to lay their groundwork, that Fogg's plan began to manifest in an even greater manner.
