Answer: Tiion Gama Sal

As the son of Tiion Gama Sal, Thracken felt that he was a gentleman who was entitled to have his comforts seen to by an army of servants. On Corellia such servants would be droids but with the Yuuzhan Vong hatred of automatons Thracken needed to find worthy humans such as Dagga Marl.

5. What was the name of the chief of communications of the Peace Brigaders at Ylesia?

Answer: Mdimu

Mdimu informed Thracken Sal-Solo that an advance party of Yuuzhan Vong had arrived at Ylesia for manoeuvres and also suggested that Sal-Solo should not arrive to meet them in a landspeeder.

8. What was the pseudonym Thracken Sal-Solo used when captured by New Republic forces?

9. What pseudonym did Thracken Sal-Solo give his bodyguard when they were captured by the New Republic?

Answer: Dagga Farglblag
