Otan Vebb

Overview
Otan Vebb was a Gungan pilot from Naboo that fought in the early days of the  Galactic Civil War  and assigned to  Arrow Squadron. She joined the Rebellion in 1 BBY and was a member of Alliance Starfighter Corp. She was shot down and killed at the Battle of Jonquil Station. Her call sign was Arrow Eleven.

Early Life
Vebb grew up on the watery world of Naboo, raised in the underwater city of Mullah Gungo. Exiled from the city when she was 20 years old for a petty crime - something surprisingly common in Gungan society- Vebb was lost and inconsolable for many months. The young Gungan eventually found her way to Theed, the capital of Naboo.

While in the city, Vebb began working with a group of local criminals. Discovering that she had a knack for flying a speeder, Vebb began to serve as the getaway driver for the small gang. The Gungan quickly developed a reputation as a talented pilot.

Fight or Else
Vebb's criminal activities eventually caught up with her and she was arrested by Imperial forces. She was sentenced to hard labor and shipped off world. However, as Vebb's transport was traveling to their destination, it was ambushed and attacked by Rebel commandos. Vebb, suddenly free of her sentence, informed the commandos she was a pilot. Not trusting a Gungan female with such a statement, the commandos tested her by putting her by giving her the helm of their shuttle. Despite never having flown anything but a random assortment of speeders, she proved them wrong and earned her way into the Alliance Starfighter Corp.

Arrow Squadron
Vebb was assigned to Arrow Squadron shortly after the Battle of Scarif. She had earned her marks, but had yet to fly an actual combat mission against Imperial forces. Almost always in a good mode, Vebb was popular among her fellow pilots. Her mercurial nature and generally humorous demeanor served as a welcome counter balance to the constant conflict. Vebb's positive attitude rubbed off her squad mates.

Vebb proved to be a talented pilot and flew with distinction at the First Battle of Betseeda Prime. She continued to serve throughout the entirety of the campaign, honing her skills and making her fellow pilots laugh. She also became close friends with Danic Polis, the two pilots sharing a common love for Naboo and its culture. She joined him during his rescue mission to the prison colony on Batahan.

During the Siege of Tazion, Vebb saved both Vid Paratool and Commander Benere by shooting down two TIE fighters in quick succession. Her talents as a former thief and saboteur also paid dividends for the squadron as Vebb was able to help the squadron make valuable inroads with the black market community. Her time as a thief also allowed her to develop various ways of concealing and hiding illicit contraband on sympathizer ships that were passing through the Imperial blockades. Additionally, few among the Imperial Navy suspected the jovial Gungan to be capable of such actions and she served a perfect spy, being unassuming and viewed as savage or unintelligent.

Vebb and Craal Noarnn are credited with developing the official Arrow Squadron logo. The Gungan was brave, but also a reliable and level-headed councilor to her fellow pilots. She wore her ear flaps pulled together behind her head similar to how humans wear a ponytail. Quick with a smile and a comforting word, despite her tough past, she was very much respected and liked by all who knew her.

During the final battle to liberate the Betseeda System, the Battle of Jonquil Station, Vebb was shot down and killed by an Imperial TIE fighter attempting to save a fighter that was dogging her friend Craal. Her death was an extremely heavy blow to the squad.

Legacy
Vebb was deeply missed by her squadron and her loss was felt long after the unit was sent to deal with the Glaston Pirates. She became something of a local hero among the Gungans and after her death; several other Gungans volunteered to several as pilots in the Rebellion. Vebb's legacy lives on in those pilots.

After the defeat of the Glaston Pirates at the Battle of Vagabond's Rest, several Gungans living on the moon of Rori moved into and occupied the abandoned wreckage of the pirate town. Slowly, they began to rebuild the area and renamed the town Otanville after their fallen brethren. Vebb's name continued to live on among her people.
