Zaoron was a Human male Dread Commander of the Dread Host during the Dread War. He was stationed on Oricon in 3639 BBY. Zaoron commanded the central watchtower and had custody over its computer core. When a spacer penetrated the tower's defenses and deactivated Corruptor droids assigned to protect it, Zaoron engaged a manual override of the final defensive system and chose to engage the intruder in person. Despite his skill in combat, Zaoron was killed and the computer core was taken.
