The earliest member of the crew to begin rebelling against the Empire was Hera Syndulla, a Twi'lek who was inspired to fight by her father, Cham Syndulla. Hera (codename Spectre-2), the owner and pilot of the Ghost, became dissatisfied with life under the Empire and its treatment of her people, and so she began seeking like-minded individuals to join a resistance movement. This led her to Gorse, where she met Kanan Jarrus (codename Spectre-1). Jarrus was a male who trained as a Jedi under Jedi Master during the Clone Wars. At the time, he was known by his birth name of Caleb Dume. Billaba was killed during the execution of Order 66, but Dume survived and heard a message from Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi warning all Jedi that the had been turned against the Jedi Order. At the urging of Kenobi's message, Dume went into hiding and changed his name to Kanan Jarrus, spending years as a transient and taking odd jobs before joining Syndulla's cause. The crew also had their own astromech droid, Chopper (codename Spectre-3), who, despite his grumpy demeanor, was an essential member for the crew who often repaired the ship., The Spectres, also known as the Ghost team, the crew of the Ghost, the Ghost crew, Spectre cell, and formerly as the Lothal rebels and Lothal resistance cell, were a cell of resistance fighters who primarily operated on the Outer Rim planet Lothal before the Galactic Civil War., The crew of the Ghost (known to some as the Lothal rebels or "the Spectres", and sometimes referred to as Ghost team) was a group of rebels who fought against the reign of the Galactic Empire. They were led by Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus and pilot Hera Syndulla, and were part of a larger movement.
