- "Stand by, Ion Control… Fire."
- ―Toryn Farr[2]
Toryn Farr was ahumanfemale who served as acommunicationsofficer in theRebel Alliance during theGalactic Civil War. Toryn and her sisterSamoc Farr joined the Rebellion at a young age and became the best in their areas.[3] Threeyears after theBattle of Yavin, she was stationed inEcho Base on theplanetHoth and was tasked with monitoring anomalies in Hoth's atmosphere. At one point, Farr entered a betting pool and betted againstHan Solo having success in courtingPrincessLeia Organa. At one point, Farr noticed a signature she thought was aStar Destroyer, but the ship passed right by Hoth without deviating from its flight path.[1]
After theGalactic Empire discovered their base, she coordinated thedefense and evacuation of the planet from the control room.[2] As the firstAlliance transport, theQuantum Storm, prepared to depart, Farr communicated with ion control and calculated the vector to fire on to cover the transport. She watched triumphantly as the Star DestroyerTyrant was disabled and theQuantum Storm escaped. Farr had to watch her friendSunsbringer be injured and evacuated, but she remained in the command room to help the transports escape. She saw Princess Leia arrive in the room and told her that she was already supposed to have been evacuated, but Organa responded that she should have already been evacuated as well. Solo arrived soon after to help Organa leave, with the Princess orderedCommanderChiffonage to use the last remaining comm station to order the total evacuation. Farr watched as Chiffonage directed all troops fromSector Twelve to the south slope.[1]
Farr then ran for the last transport and succeeded in evacuating Hoth aboard theBright Hope, the lasttransport to leave before Imperial forces swarmed the base.[4] She met her sister, injured but alive, outside the ship and gratefully hugged her as they left.[1]
