    Going through the Dramatis Personae of The Bacta War, we have:

    Wedge Antilles (Retired, called to duty during NJO)
    Tycho Celchu (same as Wedge)
    Corran Horn (Jedi Knight, Rogue Squadron pilot / leader)
    Gavin Darklighter (Rogue Leader)
    Riv Shiel (KIA)
    Inyri Forge (Major in Rogue Squadron)
    Iella Wessiri (Intelligence Agent, fairly high up)
    Winter (aide / caretaker of Admiral Ackbar)
    Ackbar (retired)
    Mirax Terrik (still hauling cargo)
    Ysanne Isard (KIA)
    Erisi Dlarit (KIA)

    The ones I didn't list are the ones I'm unsure about.
    Nawara's Booster's second in command IIRC, and Vorru is presumably doing life at some backwater prison.
    Dark Tide has a line about Admiral Nunb (presumably Aril).

    That leaves:

    Pash Cracken (presumably roughly like either Wedge or Gavin)
    Rhysati Ynr (??????)
    Ooryl Qyrgg (Findsman maybe, ????)
    Asyr Sei'lar (Bothan revolutionairy, maybe, ???)
    Elscol Loro (??????)
    Zraii, Emtrey, Whistler, and Gate / Mynock are all roughly in the same boat.
    General Cracken (????)
    Liat Tsayv (?????)

    Any help here?

    Also, in Destiny's Way it refers to Corran being Rogue Leader. Does that mean that the Leaders are:

    Luke
    Wedge
    Tycho
    Gavin
    Corran
    Whoever was leading it while Corran was on Zonama.

    Any answers there?

    Y'know, I've always wondered what happened to Gavin myself. I mean, it's like he just went off to Endor, the land of EU limbo sometime after SbS and has yet to be heard from since. I don't think they'd kill him off without even mentioning it, would they?

    I'm pretty sure Gavin was Rogue Leader throughout the NJO and lived through the war.

    Pash Cracken is in The Final Prophecy and has a lot of page time in The Unifying Force. He was leading a part of Wedge's fleet before...things happened to him (I won't give anything away to people who may not have read those books yet).

    And does he really count as a Bacta War participant? He didn't do a whole lot (at least, not intentionally) for the Rogues.

    Gavin was still leader of RS in TUF. He lead the rogues during the Battle of Calmari.

    There's a conspiricy theory on these boards that I don't recall who to attribute to, but it states that Isard was actually kept alive after IR, and made a prisoner aboard the Lusankya. When the Lucy made its suicide run, she was left aboard.

    I doubt they left her aboard, more like she wanted to stay aboard her doomed ship.

    How could they take her off the ship if they didn't know that she was aboard? As I recall, Isard's continued existence aboard the Lusankya was something known only by Iella Wessiri. Plus, Isard's compartment was completely sealed.

    Maybe Isard survived operation Emperor's Spear. We need a villain for Denning's trilogy.

    I know about what he was doing; that's why I didn't put any questions next to his name.


    jawajames:

    Funniest thing I've read in awhile.



    In Enemy Lines it says Gavin is Rogue Leader; in Destiny's Way it says:

    "the grim, reliable Corran Horn leading Rogue Squadron."

    Page 47 in the hardback, for those interested.


    Is this a continuity lapse, or is there an explanation?

    Also, I wish with all the cameos Ooryl would show up, also Sair Yonka. What happened to the Captain of the Virulence, whatever her name is?

    Perhaps Corran was leading a group of the Rogue Squadron, but not the entire Squadron.

    Either Way, Gavin is leader in TUF

    Perhaps because I'm the one who wrote the detailed theory pointing out how we don't actually see Isard die but rather we see her think she's dieing. Least we forget Corran believed himself dieing in Rogue Squadron, The Bacta War, and Onslaught. And Stackpole has had a habit of making it appear that he has killed off a character only to bring them back later in the book or later in the series. Remember Bror Jace's death in Wedge's Gamble? Gavin's death in The Bacta War? Mirax's death in The Krytos Trap? Even Isard's own death in The Bacta War?

    Though the fact that she dies in Rebel Stand has not yet been added to the theory, I added the theory and various supplemental material to my website for those who may be intrested in going over how Iella actually captured Isard and imprisoned her on the very ship that used to belong to her.
