Reyé Hollis

Reyé Hollis was an officer serving the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the New Republic who distinguished himself throughout the Galactic Civil War with several acts of valor.

The son of Lutin Hollis,

Yavin
Hollis' first assignment was on the frontlines during the Siege of Yavin. He intended unit was destroyed during Imperial shelling. Hollis was saved from a sniper shot from Sgt. Nori Sunrider who had been operating privately. Together with several stragglers, Hollis and Sunrider fought behind enemy lines to get back to Rebel lines, destroying a supply depot and a vehicle park. The unit boarded the last transport off the planet. For his efforts behind the lines he was awarded the Kalidor Crescent, and reassigned.

Hoth
Sergeant Hollis was one of Colonel Ledick Firest's top sergeants by the time of the Battle of Hoth. He was the only one in Firest's five companies to survive the battle. During the battle, Hollis rescued a cut-off squad of troopers. The soldiers turned out to be the same stragglers he found on Yavin now lead by Sgt. Sunrider. He also rescued two of his medical personnel from an advancing AT-ST, and was wounded manning a Golan laser battery to cover his company's retreat. He then gave an order to take out the snowtrooper's E-Webs. He and his ad hoc unit then retreated to escape. For these selfless heroics, Hollis received the Kenobi Medallion and a promotion.

The New Unit
After Hoth, Lt. Hollis and his troops were assigned to SpecForce. Rebel Command noted his daring actions at both Yavin and Hoth. He now commanded Echo Company of the 506th Pathfinder Rangers. He and his troops trained in the new tactics of SpecForce and were then sent to Tatoonie to raid Imperial positions and create a guerilla unit. There actions would lead to Tatoonie's quick self-liberation after the Battle of Endor. In preparation for the Endor operation. Hollis and the 506th were sent on a diversionary attack on Bespin. In a quick frantic battle, Rebel forces quickly liberated Cloud City and the surrounding platforms. In the aftermath of Endor, Hollis and the 506th were put in reserve and on leave. During this time he fell in love with his second in command, Sgt. Nori Sunrider.

Spearhead of the New Republic
After Endor, the New Republic was trying to find a quick strategy to liberate the rest of the Galaxy from the collapsing Empire. The 506th were tasked with taking the planet of Naboo which was struggling to free itself from the Empire. It would be the first time Hollis returned to his home planet in years. Echo Company lead the attack, taking out Imperial outposts outside the capital of Theed. Inside the city, Hollis and his troops infiltrated the city. Hollis tried to find a building to position his troops until the attack started. The building ironically is where Hollis' family was staying. After a quick homecoming, the unit linked up with the Queen and her bodyguard and assaulted the Royal Palace which fell quickly. The next target Hollis, Echo company, and the rest of 506th Rangers attacked was Kashyyyk, in order to aid the Wookiee resistance. The unit LZ was surrounded and Echo Company daringly attacked the Imperials head on, breaking up the attack, and taking several command posts. The unit then went to aid several neighboring units against Imperial counterattacks. After this Hollis and Echo company returned to Naboo on leave. Hollis spent most of it with Nori Sunrider.

Bogged Down
Hollis' rest was interrupted by a sudden Imperial night attack on Theed. The attack was beaten back, however the 506th was tasked with finding the source of the counterattack and destroy it. With the battles of Pollis Massa and Mustafar, the Imperial attempt to mount a serious counteroffensive was eliminated. Nevertheless remaining Imperial positions were hardened and fortified. Hollis then fought the fruitless battle of Felucia, where he fought a static battle for months with the Imperial Force. Then afterward he fought a much easier battle in taking the important transmission base on Rhen Var.

Face of the Army
After these battles Hollis was summoned by his superior Col. Firest, about his secret relationship with Nori Sunrider. He admitted the relationship, which Firest allowed under the condition that Sunrider could not get pregnant while in the army. Hollis and his unit then launched a raid on Mygeeto to draw away troops from Coruscant. During the Liberation of Coruscant, Hollis lead the attack to secure a landing base for reinforcements. He then led the attack to liberate the ruins of the Jedi Temple, raising the New Republic flag over the city.

Retirement
After Coruscant was liberated, Hollis retired from the army along with Nori Sunrider. The couple retired quietly to a Lake Country Estate on Naboo granted to them by the queen for their part during the liberation of Naboo.
