Towards the end of the Second Imperial Civil War , the junk dealer Ania Solo , a distant descendant of the smuggler Han Solo , was sent to an Sith labor camp on the planet Drash - so in the Selvatas system for murdering an unspecified individual . Her lover Ramid was also in the camp . During her time on Drash - so , Ania Solo had to contend with a particular brutal female prison guard who sported a prosthetic hand and laser whip . At some point , Ania and Ramid staged an escape but were noticed by the guards . During the escape , Ramid was shot but Ania managed to break out the camp . Believing that Ramid was dead , she fled to a nearby spaceport where she encountered the assassin droid AG - 37 , who had a freighter docking nearby . Ania used a blaster to force AG - 37 to give her passage offworld . AG - 37 , remembering an earlier promise that he had made to Han Solo , took pity on Ania and gave her passage offworld . Due to this encounter , Ania and AG - 37 became friends . Ania later settled down at a junkyard on Carreras Minor ' s moon where she established a business . AG - 37 would occasionally visit to obtain spareparts for himself and his freighter . Unknown to Ania , Ramid had survived the shooting . He was tortured by the guards into divulging Ania ' s location . When they found no sign of Ania , the guards tortured him even more . Believing that Ania had abandoned him , Ramid developed a grudge towards Ania . Following the defeat of the One Sith , Fel Empire forces liberated the labor camp and freed Ramid and other prisoners . Unknown to everyone , Ania ' s former prison guard assumed her identity prior to the liberation and subsequently walked out a free woman . She then encountered an Imperial Knight named Teemen Alton , whom she killed . Due to her stolen identity , the new Galactic Federation Triumvirate authorities wrongly believed that Ania Solo had killed Alton . Following that incident , the former prison guard assumed the persona of a bounty hunter and even obtained a TIE bomber as her personal transport . In 139 ABY , the Triumvirate , following a boost in popularity due to the liberation of the Mon Calamari Shipyards , embarked on a campaign to hunt down war criminals from the Second Imperial Civil War . Ania was included on the list of these war criminals due to her alleged role in Alton ' s murder . Kidnapping at Lasgo Port . While visiting the spaceport city of Lasgo Port , Ania Solo and her companions Jao Assam , Sauk , and AG - 37 discovered that she was wanted for the alleged murder of Teemen Alton . When confronted by Jao , Ania was defensive and reluctant to divulge her past to him or her other companions . Shortly later , AG - 37 ' s freighter encountered Ramid ' s ship , whose net isolator had allegedly been damaged by the star system ' s minefield . However , this was a merely subterfuge to lure Ania aboard Ramid ' s ship . Once she had been separated from her companions , Ramid latched his starship free from AG - 37 ' s freighter and made a cold jump into hyperspace . They also fired on AG - 37 ' s freighter in an attempt to delay or prevent any rescue attempt . Due to their cold hyperspace jump , Ramid ' s ship consumed a large amount of fuel and was forced to stop at an unknown system whose fourth planet rained glass and acid . During the journey , Ania managed to break out of her cell during a mealtime break and overpower Ramid ' s Nikto crew member . However , she was then disarmed by Ramid ' s Twi ' lek pilot who handed her back to Ramid . Ramid then led her back to her cell . On the way , he revealed that he had kidnapped her in order to collect the Triumvirate bounty on her head . Ramid justified his actions by citing his grievance towards Ania for " betraying " him on Drash - so . As Ramid ' s ship approach the orbit of the " glass rain " planet , they came under attack from a TIE bomber that was piloted by the former prison guard – turned – bounty hunter . During the pursuit , Ramid ' s Twi ' lek pilot was killed and he was forced to enlist Ania ' s services as a pilot . With much difficulty , Ania managed to land the vessel on the " glass rain " planet ' s barren surface . During the forced landing , Ramid ' s Nikto crew member was killed while Ramid sustained a head injury and was knocked unconscious . Ania survived unscathed but was forced to contend with the bounty hunter who had landed her TIE bomber nearby . The bounty hunter demanded that Ania surrender herself or she would destroy Ramid ' s starship and everything inside . Prey . After sending a medical droid to treat Ramid ' s injuries , Ania exited the starship and launched an attack on the bounty hunter . She managed to knock her pursuer out with her blaster rifle . Ania then fled into the wilderness and stumbled upon a ruined temple . She fell down a loose cliff into a valley populated by giant beetles . Before she could be crushed or eaten alive , Ania was rescued by the bounty hunter who lassoed her laser whip around Ania ' s hand , dragging her up . The bounty hunter then took her prisoner and marched her to her TIE bomber . During the journey , Ania tried to claim her innocence and took the opportunity to annoy her captor . At the eleventh hour , Ramid resurfaced on a speeder bike and knocked out the bounty hunter . While Ania was reluctant to trust Ramid , he convinced her to follow him by telling Ania that he was the best option that she had on this planet . Meanwhile , Ania ' s companions deliberated their next move . While Jao was skeptical of her innocence , Sauk and AG - 37 vouched for Ania ' s character . Sauk pointed out that Ania had helped him obtain shelter and a job when he was stranded in the Carreras system . Meanwhile , AG - 37 related his historic encounter with Ania ' s ancestor Han Solo and his first meeting with her in the Selvatas system . Following a lengthy discussion , Ania ' s companions decided to rescue her in order to ascertain the truth . Meanwhile on Coruscant , the Imperial Knight Yalta Val was suspicious of Ania ' s guilt since she had saved him during the Carreras Incident from the rogue Sith Darth Wredd . After raising his concerns with his superiors Antares Draco and Empress Marasiah Fel and failing to sway their opinion , Val decided to conduct his own investigation . While examining files relating to the Civil War , he discovered that Alton ' s real killer had a prosthetic hand . By contrast , Ania was fully biological . Back on the " glass rain " planet , Jao , Sauk , and AG - 37 stumbled across Ramid ' s wrecked starship but found no sign of Ania or Ramid . Due to a rain storm , Jao and Sauk were forced to wait aboard AG - 37 ' s freighter . Due to his mechanical body , AG - 37 alone was able to withstand the harsh feather and went out to scout the nearby area for any sign of Ania . Jao and Sauk also received a hologram transmission from Master Val confirming Ania ' s innocence . Meanwhile , Ania and Ramid reconciled their differences and forgave each other while sheltering under a glass – eating giant beetle . After the storm had subsided , they made their way to the planet ' s sole settlement in order to get transportation offworld . AG - 37 saw Ania and Ramid with his binoculars and relayed their coordinates to his companions . Confronting the past . Upon arriving at the settlement , Ania and Ramid discovered that the mysterious bounty hunter had already arrived first and killed all the inhabitants . The bounty hunter then ambushed Ania and held her in a neck - lock with her laser whip . However , Ramid arrived on the scene and fought off the bounty hunter . The bounty hunter gained the advantage and killed him by breaking her neck . Before the bounty hunter could deal with Ania , Jao arrived with his lightsaber and attacked her . Ania took advantage of the distraction to escape outdoors only to stumble into an acid storm . Fortunately , AG - 37 came to Ania ' s rescue . At a great cost to himself , he carried her into a cave . Due to the damage sustained to his internal systems sustained by the acid storm , AG - 37 convinced Ania to shut him down in order to save his memory banks . Shortly later , Ania was recaptured by the bounty hunter , who thought she had killed Jao in a thermal detonator explosion . The bounty hunter then revealed her true identity and that she was motivated by a desire to get revenge for Ania ' s escape from the labor camp . As revenge , she intended to frame Ania for the murder of Teemen Alton by amputating her left hand and reattaching her prosthetic hand to it . Before she could carry out the deed , Jao resurfaced again and attacked the bounty hunter . During the struggle , Jao managed to sever her prosthetic hand . In the end , Ania managed to kill her former tormentor by using her remote to summon her TIE bomber to crush her to death . Despite the defeat of the bounty hunter , Ania ' s troubles were not yet over . She was arrested by a squad of Trandoshan stormtroopers who extradited her to Coruscant to face trial for her alleged role in the murder of Teemen Alton . Upon arriving in Coruscant , Ania was brought before a Triumvirate tribunal consisting of the Imperial Knights ' leader Antares Draco , a Sullustan Galactic Federation of Free Alliances official , and a Jedi . Ania was ably represented by Master Yalta Val who challenged the Triumvirate ' s case against Ania by pointing out that the real killer had a prosthetic hand . Ania was aided by Jao Assam , who presented the bounty hunter ' s severed prosthetic hand and informed the tribunal that the bounty hunter was Alton ' s real murderer and that she had tried to frame Ania . Due to this compelling evidence , the tribunal was forced to acquit Ania , who was released and rejoined her friends Sauk , AG - 37 , and Jao ' s Imperial communications droid . However , this good news was overshadowed by Jao ' s arrest on desertion charges , which carried the death penalty in the Imperial Knights order . This set the stage for the final chapter of Darth Wredd ' s insurgency against both the Sith and the Triumvirate . Behind the scenes .
