Eldo Davip was a Human male who held the rank of commander within the New Republic Defense Force during the Yuuzhan Vong War, later rising to the position of general in the Galactic Alliance amidst the Second Galactic Civil War.
Despite a reputation for being somewhat hesitant, Commander Davip found himself commanding the Lusankya during the Battle of Borleias. In an incident that caused some embarrassment, Davip inadvertently positioned the Lusankya directly into the path of Commander Wyrpuuk Cha's arriving fleet within the Pyria system. As New Republic vessels hurried to support the Lusankya, the Super Star Destroyer, fortunately, managed to break free and obliterate the enemy fleet utilizing its overwhelming firepower.
Subsequently, Davip contributed to the defense of Borleias against the Yuuzhan Vong for several months. During Operation Emperor's Hammer, he personally assumed control of a turbolaser station, seemingly deriving a strange enjoyment from confusing those under his command. Although the Lusankya and its accompanying ships successfully maintained their position against the enemy for an extended period, the Super Star Destroyer gradually began to suffer damage and losses. Recognizing this, Wedge Antilles conceived a strategy involving the transfer of the Lusankya's weaponry to supporting vessels, while a massive, needle-shaped structure containing explosives was constructed within the Super Star Destroyer's hull.
As the New Republic prepared to evacuate Borleias, Davip volunteered to pilot his former flagship—now transformed into a colossal missile—on its final mission. Before embarking on the mission, he remarked to Wedge Antilles, Luke Skywalker, and Mara Jade Skywalker that he would be remembered as the pilot of the "largest one person fighter ever". Supported by the remaining Republic fleet, Davip successfully rammed the Domain Hul worldship, destroying it along with Warmaster Czulkang Lah, who was aboard. Davip managed to escape in a Y-wing as the resulting explosion consumed both vessels.
Amidst the confusion following the destruction of the Domain Hul worldship, the New Republic successfully withdrew its forces from the Pyria system. In recognition of his actions, Davip was promoted to Major General and became a member of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force command staff.
By 44 ABY, General Davip was assigned command of the Galactic Alliance military presence on Borleias. This posting was generally seen as a typical assignment for officers who were past their prime. Davip, motivated by loyalty, had sided with Chief of State Jacen Solo during the Second Galactic Civil War, leading to his placement on Borleias to quietly conclude his career. He was present when the Errant Venture arrived, carrying Wynn Dorvan, Moff Drikl Lecersen, and other prominent sabacc players who had been temporarily abducted from Coruscant.
