Legend

this man was one of the first Hapans to agree to assist the Yuuzhan Vong priest Harrar in capturing Jaina Solo, following the loss of the voxyn queen at Myrkr. Benwick and his pilot, Vonce, met with Harrar and Khalee Lah to discuss the terms of an agreement. Benwick had spent fifteen years of his life in the Hapan Navy, only to have his entire squadron destroyed at the Battle of Fondor. He hated the fact that Tenel Ka was involved in the destruction of his troops, and so he deserted his posting and took up the life of a pirate. After admitting his desertion to the Yuuzhan Vong, he was nearly killed by Khalee Lah, but Harrar made the warrior hold back, hoping to use Benwick's knowledge of Hapes to capture Jaina Solo. Shortly after Vonce was murdered, Harrar then placed a biological communicator into Benwick's ear, then sent the man back to his pirates to hunt down the Solo family.
