Captain Longmar was a male who served in the Rebel Alliance and commander of the Pegasus Strike Force. In this capacity, he was captain of the frigate Liberty Gambler.
When his strike force was forced to give two of its most powerful warships up, he realized the his fleet would not stand a chance against the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Behemoth which was on the hunt for the Rebels. He therefore sent a group of operatives to Orellon II to establish whether it was a good safe world for him.
