Zeb Orrelios
the Lasat warrior of the Ghost
Garazeb Orrelios, called Zeb, was a Lasat warrior and former Honor Guard captain of Lasan who joined Hera Syndulla's rebel crew, the Spectres, in the fight against the Galactic Empire.
Garazeb Orrelios, better known as Zeb, was a Lasat male warrior and a member of the rebel crew known as the Spectres, who fought against the Galactic Empire during the early years of the rebellion. A former captain in the Honor Guard of his homeworld of Lasan, he served aboard the starship Ghost under Captain Hera Syndulla.
Honor Guard of Lasan#
Before joining the rebellion, Orrelios served as a captain in the High Honor Guard of Lasan, the elite defenders of his homeworld. The Lasat had suffered grievously at the hands of the Empire, and Zeb carried the weight of his people's near-destruction into his work with the rebels.
The Spectres#
Aboard the Ghost, Orrelios fought alongside the Jedi Kanan Jarrus, the Mandalorian Sabine Wren, the young Ezra Bridger, and the astromech droid Chopper, under the command of Hera Syndulla. His strength made him a fearsome presence in close combat, and he took part in countless raids, rescues, and skirmishes against Imperial forces across the Lothal sector and beyond. While searching for a missing comrade after a battle in the Geonosis system, Zeb was stranded with the Imperial agent Kallus on the icy moon of Bahryn, where the two set aside their enmity to survive bonzami predators and the cold, forming an unlikely friendship that later drew Kallus toward the rebel cause.
Lira San#
Through an encounter with the former Lasan Honor Guardsman Gron and the mystic Chava the Wise, Orrelios learned of the legendary Lasat planet of Lira San, rumored to be a safe refuge for his species. The search led him to discover that the world was a genuine sanctuary, a haven where survivors of the Lasat could live free of the Empire.
