Kurksel Gartfran was a human male who served as a commander in the Resistance. While he did not support the New Republic, Gartfran joined the Resistance to fight against the First Order, which he saw as worse. Fiercely independent and a born survivalist, the Resistance’s base in the jungles of Ajan Kloss appealed to Gartfran, as he felt at home in the absence of civilization.
