Valeria was a starfighter pilot in the Alliance Fleet who held the rank of lieutenant in the period between the Battle of Hoth and the Battle of Endor . At the time that Admiral Ackbar made contact with the Freemakers , Valeria was flying a U - wing starfighter . Since her starfighter lacked a Type A vector coil , Valeria was unable to steer her ship and crashed the U - wing into the MC80a star cruiser " Home One " hangar . When Valeria chastised the ground crew team member , he replied that the rebels had no more vector coils to spare . As a result , the Freemakers led by Kordi Freemaker traveled across the galaxy and managed to obtain a Type A vector coil after bartering with several people . After an Imperial Star Destroyer discovered the " Home One " , Valeria led Blue Squadron ' s assault against the Star Destroyer but were unable to pierce through its deflector shield s . Blue Squadron began to take casualties until the Freemakers ' B1 battle droid Roger accidentally catapulted himself into space and knocked out the deflector shield generator . This enabled the " Home One " and Blue Squadron to destroy the Star Destroyer and its TIE fighter escorts . Assault on Strike Station Aurek . Later , Lieutenant Valeria chaired a meeting to plan Blue Squadron ' s assault on the Imperial Strike Station Aurek . Her plan involved dropping a proton torpedo into a Thermal exhaust port , a feat which had been first deployed by Luke Skywalker during the Battle of Yavin . Rowan Freemaker and Roger accidentally damaged Blue Squadron ' s starfighters . While Kordi and Zander Freemaker distracted Valeria , Rowan and Roger repaired the starfighters with the former using his Force powers . However , Roger accidentally built himself into Valeria ' s Y - wing starfighter ' s astromech socket . By the time that Valeria had managed to blast through an S - foil which Kordi and Zander had used to obstruct her and her squadron ' s path , Rowan and Roger had finished rebuilding the starfighters . Valeria entered the cockpit of her Y - wing while Rowan was struggling to free Roger . Without noticing the two , Valeria took her starfighter into space . Valeria led the assault on Strike Station Aurek while Rowan and Roger did their best to guard her flank from TIE fighters . As Valeria approached the thermal exhaust port , Rowan used the Force to deploy the proton torpedo . Strike Station Aurek was destroyed and Valeria complimented her gunner and astromech droid , not realizing they were Rowan and Roger . After returning to the " Home One " , Rowan and Roger cut themselves out of the Y - wing . Valeria then praised her co - pilot and astromech droid , who expressed bemusement at being left behind . Working with Zander . Later , Zander Freemaker attempted to convince Valeria to let him join her squadron . However , Valeria turned down his offer because his starship Blazemaker Mark II lacked blaster s . Shortly later , Valeria and Blue Squadron were deployed to meet an Imperial counter - attack . Blue Squadron soon found itself outnumbered and outgunned by numerous TIE fighters and TIE interceptors . Fortunately for them , Zander came to the rescue in the Blazemaker , which was heavily laden with several laser cannon s and a giant magma cannon . Zander destroyed several Imperial fighters , turning the tide of the dogfight . Valeria remarked that his ship was messy but effective and complimented Zander for creating an opening . Before Zander could destroy the remaining three stragglers , the Blazemaker Mark II exploded since it was heavily loaded with weapons . Zander survived and was flung against the " Home One " command bridge . Sometime later , as the Freemakers were repairing the Alliance fleet ' s starfighters , they were attacked by two Imperial Star Destroyers . Valeria led Blue Squadron into battle to clear a path for the fleet to escape into hyperspace . Despite her successful strategy , Valeria ' s A - wing and the other rebel starfighters sustained damage . While Zander was annoyed due to a shortage of spareparts , Valeria retorted that he could fix it because he was " Zander Freemaker , Superstar Pilot Guy . " The Freemakers and the Mon Calamari starship builder Quarrie subsequently embarked on a salvage run on the planet Tibalt . Later , Valeria was present while Zander repaired Grayson ' s X - wing starfighter . While Grayson thought the ship belonged on the scrap heap , Valeria advised patience . Zander managed to extract a cracked coolant compensator and reassured Grayson that the ship would fly . Valeria then praised Zander , who was distracted by his little brother Rowan . After Rowan had left , Zander asked Valeria if he could join her squadron but she replied that he was better off as a mechanic . Personality and traits .

She was a good leader who coordinated strikes and dogfights against the Empire . Valeria appreciated the Freemakers for their efforts to obtain a Type A vector coil for her U - wing . Valeria used her knowledge of rebel tactics and the history of the Battle of Yavin to destroy the Imperial Strike Station Aurek . However , she was too enthusiastic to notice that Rowan and Roger were aboard her Y - wing Valeria appreciated Zander ' s enthusiasm to join Blue Squadron but turned him down because his starfighter Blazemaker II lacked blaster s . Valeria relented after Zander refitted his starfighter with laser cannons and turned the tide of a dogfight . After expressing doubt about the state of the repairs that the Freemakers did to her A - wing , she said that if she exploded , she would at least take Imperial TIEs down with her .
