A resistance group of Oruans was formed after the First Order took control of the planet Oru. The group, led by the strategist Mezlo, attempted to fight the First Order off their world, but failed, and were forced to flee to Horizon Base. The Resistance learned of the Oruan warriors, and undertook a mission to recruit them. Mezlo declined the offer to leave with the Resistance, but offered to provide help if needed.
