Corran was a Force-sensitive human male that lived on the planet Daiyu. Corran and his mother,[2] Nyche,[3] desperately needed to leave Daiyu as Corran's abilities put him in danger. Corran's mother contacted a supposed Jedi named Haja Estree and asked him to get them both off Daiyu. Haja, who was actually a con artist, directed them to Gate 3-C at the port so that they could travel to Corellia in exchange for credits as payment.[2] Corran made his way to the planet Jabiim, where he resided along with other members of the Hidden Path.[4]
Once the base on Jabiim was attacked by the Galactic Empire, the innocents made a dash to Kawlan Roken's freight transport, which would take off into space, and be followed by the Devastator. The young Princess Leia Organa would use her toy droid, L0-LA59 (Lola) to entertain Corran as the transport was fired upon. Obi-Wan Kenobi would distract the Devastator and its captain by fleeing in an escape pod, and through the real Jedi's sacrifice the innocents onboard were able to escape.[5]
Behind the scenes
Corran first appeared in the second episode of the Disney+ series Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi, and was portrayed by Indie Desroches. Though the character's name was not mentioned in the actual episode, it did appear in the credits.[2]
