Legend

this arrogant young man was a native of the planet Alderaan. The son of two politicians, Dren was educated at some of the Inner Rim's best schools. When he accepted a scholarship to a prominent medical school, Dren found himself away from Alderaan when it was destroyed by the Empire. He joined the Alliance, and was recruited to be a medic with the Special Operations team. The loss of his family on Alderaan hardened his spirit, and his bedside manner and respect for his superiors were both poor. He found himself having to pull political strings to get transferred to a more prestigious area. However, after learning that he could provide expertise in high-combat missions where the real work was being done against the Empire, he retracted his request and was assigned to T'Charek Haathi's shipjacking team. He bristled at having to take orders from a younger officer, and discovered that he lacked the skills to give them in combat situations. After Haathi's team survived the attack of a Doom Slayer droid on Gelgelar, Nord left the team to work with Colonel Stijhl's team. He was replaced by Stijhl's field medic, Maglenna Pendower.
