Legend

this Alliance starfighter pilot was one of the original Tierfon Yellow Aces, and served with Wes Janson and Jek Porkins. A former freighter pilot from the planet Alderaan, Kissek went into a panic attack when a routine mission became a dogfight with the Yellow Aces outnumbered two-to-one. Janson and Porkins were forced to chase him down because of their proximity to Imperial space, fearing that he might compromise the mission. When Kissek wouldn't listen to reason and turn around, Janson took a shot at him. The laser blast cracked Kissek's cockpit, venting all atmosphere and killing him. Kissek's widow found out about his death before the Yellow Aces could talk to her, and she blamed them for his death and for ruining the family name. She changed her name,and that of her children, to Tainer and moved from their hometown, hoping to rebuild their lives. Kissek's son, Kell, eventually joined the Alliance himself.
