Nodnarb Aher was a Human male from Ank Ki'Shor who became a member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Though he originally trained to become a technician, Nodnarb instead chose to leave his homeworld and the Alliance. Once accepted, he trained as a pilot and learned to fly the main starfighter of the Alliance, the X-wing. When he accompanied a convoy as part of his first mission, Nodnarb was part of the escort that saved Ank Ki'Shor from the forces of the Galactic Empire.
