Your average Imperial pilot is just plain suicidal. The Sith elite pilots are too bloodthirsty to think straight. Rayce Nomante? Now he's suicidal and bloodthirsty. If you see his TIE Avenger coming your way, you better hope your hyperdrive is operational.
—Cade Skywalker
Rayce Nomante, nicknamed Wampa for his icy precision, was a human male TIE pilot in the Sith Imperial Navy of Darth Krayt's Sith Empire, though he later ended up defecting to the Fel Empire. Regarded by many of his superiors as an ace pilot, Rayce and his elite unit, known as Wampa Squadron, were in high demand by the Sith Navy at multiple locations.
After being ordered to shoot down several Mon Calamari refugee transports, Rayce began to question his service to the Empire. After the genocide on Dac, he officially defected to the Fel Empire, disgusted by Sith tactics. He was placed in command of an "elite" pilot unit in the Imperial Navy, which he had to bring up into fighting shape.
