The Verpine, with their fascination for technology and with eyesight that allows them to spot microscopic details - like stress fractures - without magnifying equipment, made for some of the best tech support in the galaxy. They were also known, however, for tinkering with the ships for which they cared. Wedge had never had a problem in that regard, but stories abounded about ships where the controls had been reconfigured into what a Verpine found would be a much better alignment - not realizing most pilots did not have microscopic vision or didn’t think in base six.
