| abstract | - Eis-Phob-Noor HGE SV (/ˈaɪsˌfɑːbˌnʊər/) was a male Twerfung and one of the most decorated pilots in the history of the Royal Starfighter Corps. Commissioned as a pilot in 110 ABY, he saw early service during the Golden Empire's campaigns of conquest and against pirates. He participated in the Ambush at Bolera in 116 ABY, where he received the Star of Valor for continuing a successful attack on a fleeing Red Eclipse freighter and disabling the ship despite the deaths of both his wingmates. Eis-Phob-Noor fought in the Conquest of the Chiss Ascendancy, by that point a commander. During the Battle of Naporar, he led his squadron in a desperate attack on three bomber squadrons and their escorts targeting a group of vulnerable troop carriers. Against all odds, Eis-Phob-Noor and his squadron prevailed with only a single casualty, and Eis-Phob-Noor received the Hero of the Golden Empire after the battle from the hand of Tariun Sakaros himself. Eis-Phob-Noor transferred to Redblade Squadron after the Chiss were defeated, and by 141 ABY had been promoted to both colonel and commanding officer of the elite squadron. He led the squadron during the early Vagaari War and helped the Mineti Centurion Tamlok integrate into the unit. During the Battle of Schesa, Eis-Phob-Noor's Hadrago was critically damaged, but he continued to fight rather than retreat, shooting down several more Vagaari fighters before his craft was blown up. Eis-Phob-Noor received a posthumous second award of the Star of Valor. Tamlok succeeded him as commander of the Redblades.
