Monjai Monjai was a female Elomin who served the New Republic . Following the liberation of the planet Kal ' Shebbol in 8 ABY , Monjai was appointed to the post of Governor since it was felt that she would better relate to the large non - Human population on the planet . Monjai ' s assignment was welcomed by the world ' s alien community , and she immediately set about rebuilding the damaged infrastructure and crafting some sort of local defense force to ensure the planet ' s security . Several months later , Monjai greeted the returning crew of the CR90 corvette " FarStar " after their lengthy mission to track down the former Imperial ruler of Kal ' Shebbol , Moff Kentor Sarne . Biography . In 8 ABY , the Elomin female Monjai was serving the New Republic , and was installed as the new governor of Kal ' Shebbol , a planet located in the Kathol sector of the Outer Rim Territories , after the world was successfully liberated . The planet had been under the control of Moff Kentor Sarne , who had quietly removed the Kathol sector from the Galactic Empire following the death of Emperor Palpatine during the Battle of Endor four years previously . A New Republic task force was dispatched to the planet , along with elements of Page ' s Commandos , to free the world and capture the Moff . Despite their efforts , Sarne was able to escape from the New Republic along with the majority of his forces and flee into the Kathol sector . Monjai ' s first order of business was to stop Kal ' Shebbol from descending into chaos following the battle to free the planet . During his time on the planet , Moff Sarne had alienated the large non - Human population by not respecting their traditional clan and city - state societal structure , and installed Imperial Prefect s over local community leaders . As a result , most of the non - Human population was ill - disposed toward Humans in general . It was hoped that Monjai , as an Elomin , would serve to reassure the various alien species that called Kal ' Shebbol home of the New Republic ' s good intentions . The decision proved to be a worthwhile one , and the alien communities accepted her appointment , allowing her to spend time building good will among the population . The New Republic task force that had been assigned to assault Kal ' Shebbol left the planet three days after the liberation , heading to Bozhnee sector to join up with another fleet group under the command of Captain Sarin Virgilio . This left the planet virtually undefended , although the New Republic had promised to deploy a defense force to the planet inside three months . In the meantime , Monjai was forced to scour the planet and attempt to cobble together a military force out of whatever had not been destroyed during the battle for the world . Shortly after the New Republic task force left the planet , the New Republic CR90 corvette " FarStar " , in orbit of Kal ' Shebbol preparing to set out into the Kathol sector to track down Moff Sarne , intercepted a distress signal from the nearby planet of Kolatill . In the wake of the New Republic ' s liberation of Kal ' Shebbol , the people of Kolatill had followed suit and overthrown their Imperial governor . In retaliation , Moff Sarne had ordered an attack on the planet ' s capital city of Domaz , which had been conducted by the " Ton - Falk " - class escort carrier " Kathol Protector " . While the " FarStar " headed to the planet to assist in recovery operations , Monjai promised to send medical relief ships as soon as she could , although it would take two days to prep them . Several months after the " FarStar " left Kal ' Shebbol , a New Republic force departed from the planet to assist the corvette after receiving progress updates through the Lifeline Project . The Lifeline Project was a communications link set up by the " FarStar " crew to maintain contact with the New Republic as they passed through the volatile and unstable Kathol Rift . However , due to the distance between Kal ' Shebbol and the " FarStar " location at the planet Kathol , it would take several weeks for the force to get there , and several weeks to return . When the force returned with the victorious survivors of the " FarStar " crew — the corvette had been lost during the Battle of Kathol , but Moff Sarne had been defeated — Monjai greeted them enthusiastically . Personality and traits . Monjai was a competent administrator and organizer which led to her appointment to Kal ' Shebbol , a planet that was forced to rebuild in the wake of Sarne ' s departure and the New Republic ' s liberation . Monjai also had a grasp of politics , and realized that the way to win over the population of Kal ' Shebbol was to appear in public and forge good relations with the various communities . She also saw that supplying medical aid to Kolatill would increase the New Republic ' s standing in the sector , and help victims of Imperial oppression . Although Elomin were noted for their logical disposition , Monjai was not immune to displaying emotion as she enthusiastically greeted the returning crew of the " FarStar " after their months - long mission . Behind the scenes . Monjai was created as a background character for West End Games ' 1995 publication " The DarkStryder Campaign " , the first installment in the multi - book adventure of the same name to flesh out the post - Sarne situation on Kal ' Shebbol . She was subsequently mentioned in the last book of the series , " Endgame " , in 1996 .
