Kelvin Ravine

The Kelvin Ravine was the home of a colony of human villagers, many of whom were followers of the ways of the Ancient Jedi, but were not Jedi themselves. One of the more venerated residents of the Ravine was Lor San Tekka, who was an ally of the New Republic and a friend of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa. Lor was in possession of a piece of a map that pointed the way towards where Skywalker had placed himself into exile. As the First Order rose in power, a Resistance faction formed within the Republic with Leia Organa assuming the role of a General. She sent her most daring pilot, Poe Dameron, to Jakku to find Lor San Tekka and recover the map. The First Order learned about this mission and sent several transport ships and a shuttle craft to the Ravine to intercept the Resistance. Lor gave Poe Dameron the map, who secretly placed it inside his astromech droid, BB-8. A dark side Force user of the First Order named Kylo Ren interrogated Lor San Tekka. When Lor proved uncooperative, Kylo cut him down with his lightsaber. Poe tried to escape, but Ren captured him and had him brought back to the fleet. He gave orders to Captain Phasma and her Stormtrooper squadron to kill all of the remaining villagers. Most of the troopers obeyed without hesitation, but for one: FN-2187. It was his first time in battle, but something about seeing innocents being slaughtered enabled him to break his behavioral conditioning. As such, he refused to participate in the slaughter.
