T ' Charek Haathi T ' Charek Haathi was a Wroonian female who served the Alliance to Restore the Republic as both a starfighter pilot and Special Operations team leader . Born on the planet Wroona , Haathi deplored stability and being bored . She served with the Wroonian defense force , but the rigidity of military life led Haathi and her unit to go rogue and target Imperial shipping . The squadron was decimated in a reprisal attack from the Empire , and Haathi eventually joined the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin alongside two Humans she had met on the planet Rodaj : former Imperial soldier Ivhin Jayme , and technical genius Morgan Q . Raventhorn . A stint in the Alliance ' s Starfighter Corps led to the same problems that Haathi had encountered serving with the Wroonians , although she was regarded as one of the Alliance ' s top pilots . As she faced discipline and authority problems , Haathi ' s superiors decided to transfer her to Special Operations , where she could use her considerable skill - set in a more unregulated atmosphere . Haathi recruited her friends Jayme and Raventhorn into her new team , and they came to specialize in stealing starships . The team was highly successful , and Haathi found her place in the Alliance . Accompanied by a Human medic , Dren Nord , the team stole a YT - 1300 light freighter , " The Maker " , from a spaceport on the planet Zelos II . Taking the ship to an Alliance drop point on the planet Gelgelar , the team was forced to face the Doom Slayer , an experimental assassin droid that the ship ' s previous owner , the Sluissi Sythluss Leethe , had created and kept aboard the vessel . Although defeated , the Doom Slayer had a self - destruct mechanism built in ; the team barely escaped from the drop point in " The Maker " before the installation was destroyed , though they managed to evacuate most of the base personnel . Biography . Early life . T ' Charek Haathi , a Wroonian female , was born on the planet Wroona in the Inner Rim . In her youth , Haathi worked with her grandmother , who ran a successful shipping company on Wroona . Haathi hated being both stable and predictable , and craved excitement and adventure ; the work left her constantly bored . She applied to the Imperial Academy in an effort to find some excitement , despite the fact that she knew she would be subject to constant prejudice due to being both female and non - Human . Her application was denied , but she was recruited by the Wroonian defense force when she was eighteen . A year later , Haathi was a qualified starfighter pilot operating within a squadron . However , regimented life in the military was not to Haathi ' s tastes either , as her duties mainly consisted of patrolling Wroona . Eventually , her squadron went rogue and began raiding Imperial corporate ships . Their assaults were bold , but they drew the attention of the Imperial Navy , who struck back against Haathi ' s unit . The squadron was decimated , but Haathi survived the assault and managed to make it to the planet Rodaj in the Inner Rim . There , she found work as a miner and struck up a friendship with two Humans : former Imperial soldier Ivhin Jayme , and former scout and technician Morgan Q . Raventhorn . Feeling down in her current situation , Haathi and Jayme decided that they would join the Rebellion , and convinced Raventhorn to go with them . Rebel Alliance service . Haathi and her companions enlisted with the Rebel Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY , and she was assigned to the Alliance Starfighter Corps flying a BTL Y - wing starfighter . Although her experience and abilities made Haathi one of the Alliance ' s best pilots , her carefree attitude towards regulations and her impulsiveness grated on her superior officers . The Alliance was in retreat following the Battle of Yavin , hiding from Imperial forces and regrouping their strength . Haathi found the situation monotonous and livened up her duties by sabotaging her Y - wing ' s systems at random just to see how well she could fly without them , yelling " Eject ! " into open comm channels simply to find who would trigger their ejection seat , and constantly referring to her commanding officer as " Admiral Nerf " just to see how long it would take for him to get mad . Haathi endured several suspensions from flight duty , which just made her more bored and annoying to others than she already was , and finally her commanding officer began to ignore her completely rather than punish her . At some point , Haathi was made a flight instructor and posted to a training base . There , she came into conflict with the local Human quartermaster , Arik Stijhl . Stijhl , a veteran logistics officer , was a stickler for regulations and timetables , and Haathi was the complete opposite . Her training sessions often called for the unauthorized requisition of supplies , which , in Stijhl ' s mind , undermined his authority as the base ' s supply officer . Eventually , her superiors decided to transfer her to Special Operations . They saw it as a double positive situation — the Rebellion would be able to retain Haathi ' s considerable skills , but the Starfighter Corps would be rid of her . Haathi agreed to the reassignment . Placed in command of a Special Ops team , Haathi immediately recruited her former colleagues Ivhin Jayme and Morgan Raventhorn into her squad , along with a medic . Haathi ' s team was based out of an Alliance base on the planet Derricon , in the Spirva sector of the Mid Rim , and engaged in shipjacking operations . Although answerable to the base commander on the world , Haathi and her team were allowed free rein once off - base . Her actions in the field earned her a promotion from Captain to Major . Over the course of six months , Haathi either fired or lost eight medics in turn until she was assigned Dren Nord , a Human former surgeon with the Alliance Fleet , despite her protests . Haathi was assured that Nord had experience of field work , but she had her doubts . Zelos II . In search of starships to procure for the Alliance , Haathi took the team to Zelos II , a planet in the Tyus sector of the Mid Rim . Targeting a spaceport , the team acquired stolen technician uniforms and obtained a set of the installation ' s remodeling plans that provided information on its security systems . Haathi ' s plan called for infiltrating the spaceport at night to take advantage of the native Zelosian s ' pathological fear of the dark . She reasoned that the spaceport guards would be more concerned with the darkness around them and thinking of the moment that their shift would end , rather than be focused on actually guarding the spaceport . Using the stolen uniforms and forged work orders to fool Humanoid and droid personnel alike , the team infiltrated the base , and Haathi evaluated the potential targets . Out of hundreds of ships in the spaceport , there were dozens of YT - 1300 light freighters — top of the Alliance ' s list of ships to procure — berthed in the spaceport . At least two were relatively unguarded , while a third was located beneath a guard tower , in full view of several security cameras , and surrounded by a forcefield cube , a mesh - link power fence , and a blast wall . Haathi , seeing both the inherent challenge and pure excitement in stealing the most heavily guarded ship in the spaceport , selected it as their target . Haathi led Jayme and Nord to a maintenance tower overlooking the freighter while Raventhorn ascended a lighting tower ; her task was to splice into the spaceport ' s systems to rewire the security camera covering the vessel to display a computer - generated video of the light freighter ' s docking bay with the ship undisturbed to mask the team ' s approach . Haathi and Nord monitored the spaceport ' s security patrols from the maintenance tower to make sure that they did not discover Raventhorn and blow her cover . Meanwhile , Jayme rewired the backup security computers located in the maintenance tower so that the unit would be under the team ' s complete control . From their hiding spot , Nord questioned Haathi ' s decision to take the most heavily guarded ship in the spaceport ; her response — that taking any other vessel would have been boring — left him unconvinced . Raventhorn completed her task , and began playing the fake video over the security monitors . With the cameras disabled , Haathi ordered Jayme to head down to the docking bay while Raventhorn attached a Scomp - Spiker to the security systems . When Jayme signaled that he was in position , Raventhorn triggered the device , sending a power surge through the main security computer that temporarily disabled the forcefield cube and power fence encircling the ship . The spaceport ' s systems rerouted to the backup computer that Jayme had rigged earlier ; the modifications made to the unit kept the security systems offline for a short time before the auxiliary power kicked in and re - established both the forcefield and power fence . Jayme pole - vaulted the fence and wall , landing just as the power to the security fields was reactivated . Inside the docking bay , Jayme relayed the ship ' s identification numbers to Haathi , who identified the vessel as " The Maker " , owned by a Sluissi called Sythluss Leethe . Using a VoiceBox , Jayme deactivated the security systems from inside to admit Haathi and the rest of the team . Momentarily lost in admiring the ship , Haathi soon ordered Raventhorn to begin work on disabling the freighter ' s security systems while Jayme and Nord kept an eye on the security patrols . Soon enough , Raventhorn announced that the security systems would be disabled once she had disconnected the stun steps . Haathi , in her enthusiasm to take the ship , had only heard that the defenses were down and began bounding up the entry ramp . The freighter ' s stun steps triggered as her foot touched the ramp , generating an electromagnetic neuro - shock field that knocked her unconscious and sent her flying backwards . Haathi came to rest in the open , and Jayme ordered Raventhorn to get Haathi under cover quickly . Nord , meanwhile , abandoned cover to see if Haathi required his assistance and was was spotted by one of the security guards on the catwalks above . A ladder from the catwalks was lowered into the bay , and the security guards descended , firing on the Special Ops team . Haathi regained consciousness to find herself under " The Maker " , protected from the incoming fire by the entry ramp . She had no feeling in her legs , and Raventhorn told her to stay put before disappearing . As feeling began to return to her legs , Haathi maneuvered herself to survey the situation . The guards were trading laser fire with her team , who were in cover behind cargo crates . No member of her team had been injured yet , despite the fact that the guards ' blasters were set to kill while her team were firing stun blasts . Haathi started to wonder if the effort to take " The Maker " had been worth it ; catching herself and refusing to think along those lines , she resolved not to let the guards rob her of her prize and issued orders to fall back to the ship . Suddenly , Nord , having set his own weapon to kill , hit one of the security guards . Haathi immediately ordered him to switch back to the stun setting , which he refused to do unless she could get them out of trouble . Haathi ordered Jayme to stun him ; when the commando began to comply , Nord ducked into cover and followed orders . The guards in the docking bay began to thin out , as several had retreated to the upper level , where they were better positioned than Haathi ' s team . Haathi ordered Raventhorn to finish disabling the stun steps so they could board the ship and escape . As Raventhorn worked , a security guard opened fire on her . The technician was blocking Haathi ' s line of sight to the guard , preventing her from using her own weapon to neutralize him . Haathi feared the worst until Raventhorn hit the guard with two cables attached to the stun steps , stunning him with an electromagnetic neuro - shock field . Seeing this , Haathi ordered Raventhorn to use the cables to charge the metal ladder rungs , which in turn sent the stun blast surging through the metal catwalk attached to it . The neuro - shock field stunned the remaining guards . As the team began to fall back to " The Maker " , Jayme helped Haathi to her feet and into the ship . Heading for the cockpit , the team were confronted with a sealed hatch . Haathi groaned , Raventhorn began to figure out a way past it , and Jayme simply attached detonite tape to the door , then used a shot from his blaster to detonate it . The resulting explosion disengaged the hatch ' s locking mechanism , admitting Haathi into the cockpit . Dropping into the pilot ' s seat , Haathi rerouted all power to the engines and launched the freighter as security reinforcements took pot shots at the departing ship . Gelgelar . Haathi flew " The Maker " to an Alliance drop point on the planet Gelgelar , in the Elrood sector of the Outer Rim Territories . The drop point was commanded by Arik Stijhl , and Haathi ' s main reason for stopping at the base was solely to show off her new ship and promotion to Major to him . Stijhl begrudgingly welcomed Haathi , Jayme , and Nord to Gelgelar , where Haathi was disappointed to learn that Stijhl was no longer a Major himself , and had since been promoted to Colonel . Haathi claimed to need supplies to cover her true reason for visiting ; Stijhl summoned his Human administrative aide , Maglenna Pendower , to take their requisition needs . Raventhorn , who had been working on the freighter ' s faulty power grid , commed Haathi to inform her of something . Just as she was about to , static erupted from the comm , and the entire ship lost power . As the emergency lighting kicked in , Pendower headed straight for the maintenance bay where Raventhorn was working . Haathi ordered Jayme to follow Pendower , then headed off the ship in search of Nord , who had exited the ship just after meeting Stijhl . After finding Nord , Haathi returned to " The Maker " to find that Pendower had revived Raventhorn , who had been seemingly electrified by a surge from the power grid . Pendower believed it was clearly an accident , but Jayme disagreed . While Pendower helped Nord to take Raventhorn to the drop point ' s medical bay , Jayme followed his hunch that Raventhorn ' s mishap had not been accidental . Haathi , meanwhile , attempted to repair " The Maker " power grid . Unable to understand Raventhorn ' s notes on the original malfunction , Haathi was relieved when Stijhl offered assistance in the form of Sergeant Nofre Ecls , a Sullustan engineer . While Stijhl left to investigate a commotion outside , Haathi and Ecls began to work on the power grid . Ecls was of the opinion that she would need to rewire the entire grid to get the ship functional again , a job that would take several days . Haathi suggested just hot - wiring the ship , but Ecls advised against it since a single power surge would destroy the entire freighter . The Major was forced to order the Sullustan engineer to rewire the power grid . Outside , an experimental assassin droid , the Doom Slayer , had been activated . Hidden aboard " The Maker " by its creator , Sythluss Leethe , it began its primary mission of wiping out all organic lifeforms in the immediate area . Jayme had been correct in his assumption that Raventhorn ' s mishap was not an accident and had begun tracking the droid and combating it alongside the drop point ' s security personnel . The droid had locked the base ' s hangar doors and scrambled the comm channels . Stijhl ordered an evacuation of the base , directing the base personnel to board " The Maker " to make their escape . Haathi and Ecls succeeded in restoring power to the ship , and the freighter began to fill up with wounded personnel . Haathi found a pilot and told him to go to the cockpit and take off the minute the engines came back on - line . Haathi went to the boarding ramp , exposing herself to acrid smoke while she waited for any sign of her team . Nord appeared shortly thereafter , supporting an injured Stijhl . Haathi helped him bring the Colonel aboard , inquiring if Nord had seen the others , which he had not . The ship ' s repulsorlifts began to fire just as Haathi saw Jayme , Raventhorn , and Pendower , each supporting the other as they tried to run for the ship . Haathi helped the three aboard just as " The Maker " lifted off . Jayme had succeeded in defeating the Doom Slayer , but the assassin droid had been equipped with a self - destruct mechanism . " The Maker " smashed through the closed hangar doors , speeding away from the drop point as the bomb exploded and destroyed the base . On board a medical frigate , Haathi and her team learned the origins of the assassin droid , and Stijhl reprimanded them for the loss of the supplies located at the drop point , which included 6 industrial - grade power generators , 600 medical field packs , 82 perimeter sensor s , 8 B1 - series worker droid s , and 200 blaster packs . He then informed them that they were going on an acquisition run to recover the losses . Haathi agreed on the condition that Pendower — who had impressed Haathi by helping to treat Raventhorn and assisting Jayme — was assigned to her team in place of Nord , who had not lived up to her standards . Stijhl agreed to the transfer and allowed the team to leave . Personality and traits . T ' Charek Haathi was an easygoing , quick - witted woman who enjoyed having fun and taking chances . Easily bored , she loathed stability and predictability and was always on the lookout for opportunities that would challenge and excite her . In personality , she was a typical energetic , carefree , Wroonian who relished finding new challenges . Considered to be short for her species , Haathi stood as tall as an average Human female . Enthusiastic and impulsive , she had a flippant manner which often annoyed other beings . Haathi had a problem with authority figures , but was herself a natural leader . Despite this , she was not power hungry and hated pulling rank on others unless the situation necessitated it , mainly because she feared becoming the authority figure that she had always opposed . A capable tactician and planner , Haathi was not opposed to listening to the suggestions of her team when it came to mission planning . She trusted two of her team — Ivhin Jayme and Morgan Raventhorn — implicitly and made a conscious effort to give Dren Nord the benefit of the doubt when he first joined her unit , but when he failed to measure up to her standards , she quickly sought a replacement for him . Despite her trust in her friends ' skills , she worried about them and placed their well - being above the needs of the Rebel Alliance , such as when Raventhorn needed better medical attention than a drop point could provide . Haathi was reluctant to use lethal force when it was not necessary , as she refused to authorize her team to kill the guards at the Zelos II spaceport despite the fact that they were using kill shots instead of stun blasts against them . She became angry when one of her team , Nord , disregarded her order and used his blaster ' s kill setting . She went as far as ordering Jayme to stun him to prevent Nord from doing further harm . A skilled pilot , Haathi specialized in flying Y - wing starfighters and was fully capable of repairing them when the need arose . She was trained to fly space transports , and could use the weapon , shield , and sensor systems on them effectively . She was able to repair ships and their weapons , and could repair capital ships . Haathi was able to navigate through hyperspace , and she was particularly knowledgeable about locations in the Inner Rim . She knew about business and had an interest in alien languages and planetary systems . Haathi ' s work as a Special Operations operative naturally lent itself to undercover work , and she was able to use her skills to either intimidate or persuade individuals into revealing information , or to con them out of something . She could use her talents to research and investigate potential targets , figuring out the best way to obtain what she needed . Working as a ship jacker , Haathi was particularly adept at determining the value of starships , and she had a working knowledge of law enforcement procedures and security systems . Haathi carried two weapons , a blaster pistol , and a heavy blaster pistol , and knew how to wield them effectively . She could repair her weapons , and was skilled in the use of vehicle - mounted blasters . She was trained in unarmed combat . Usually , Haathi carried a comlink in addition to her weapons , as well as several fake ident chit s . Behind the scenes . T ' Charek Haathi first appeared in " " , in issue 13 of West End Games ' " Star Wars Adventure Journal " , the first in a series of articles detailing the Alliance Special Operations . Haathi made a second appearance in " " in the following issue . Haathi ' s adventure ' s were due to continue in " " , to be published in issue 17 , but the " Adventure Journal " was cancelled before the issue was released . All three installments were written by John Beyer and Kathy Burdette . Haathi later had an entry in 2008 ' s " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " . Cut content . For a week after the incident on Gelgelar , Haathi and her team remained under medical supervision on the frigate , where Haathi spent most of the time worrying about the injuries that Jayme and Pendower had suffered , or checking to make sure that Raventhorn had not gone back into cardiac arrest . Haathi herself required six hours on a ventilator to combat the effects of breathing in too much toxic smoke . Two weeks later , Haathi and her team headed to the planet Laertos . An Imperial supply depot was under construction on the world , and Haathi had devised a plan to infiltrate the base and steal a super freighter loaded with supplies . Intelligence from General Crix Madine indicated that the base ' s security consisted of a two - meter mesh fence , two guards , and around a hundred construction workers . On arrival , it was discovered that the base was undergoing a major upgrade into a full garrison , and was protected by a fully - charged mesh - link fence , minefield , and heavy laser turrets with a clear field of vision . Undeterred , Haathi , Raventhorn , and Pendower posed as picnicking locals in the woods surrounding the base , distracting a five - man patrol and allowing Jayme to incapacitate all five using a Tranq 25 HV Pistol modified for use as a carbine . Relieving the troopers of their uniforms and equipments , the team stole the patrol ' s patrol speeder and infiltrated the facility , which forced Haathi to use green camouflage field paint to disguise her blue skin . With Pendower posing as a major , the team headed to the administration building . During the infiltration , Haathi switched the plan . Instead of hijacking a super freighter , Haathi had Pendower change the routing orders for future shipments of high - value material and equipment to be delivered to small , out of the way Imperial bases close to Alliance outposts that could then be raided with minimal effort . To cover their tracks , Haathi had Jayme and Raventhorn blow up the obvious parts of the base that an inexperienced terrorist would target . However , both teams were caught in the act by Imperial security forces under the command of Captain Edmond Mylesgood , who had been alerted to a possible unauthorized presence on the base when the patrol that Haathi ' s team had impersonated failed to follow proper procedure and check in . A lightfight ensued , but the team was able to extradite themselves from danger and exfiltrate from the base .
