==Biography==
A Dathomirian female from the Outer Rim TerritoriesThe Essential Atlas planet Dathomir, Luce was a member of the Force-sensitive Witches of Dathomir Nightsister coven during the waning days of the Galactic Republic.
During the Clone Wars between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Republic, the former Nightsister and Sith assassin Asajj Ventress was betrayed by her Sith Master, Count Dooku. Returning to the Nightsisters, Ventress and her sisters made several attempts on Dooku's life as revenge. In 20 BBY, in retaliation, the count sent the Separatist Droid Army under the command of General Grievous to eradicate the Nightsisters. Along with Ventress and her fellow Nightsisters, Luce began a counterattack against the Separatist forces. Ventress ordered Luce and a fellow Nightsister to climb upon the branches of a tree and shoot at the Separatist battle droids below with their Nightsister energy bows. After the Nightsister elder Old Daka unleashed the Nightsister Army of the Dead, Luce jumped from the branches of the tree, fought two BX-series droid commandos, and took their E-5 blaster rifles after being deprived of her energy bow.
After the Separatists fired two defoliators from a Defoliator Deployment Tank, Luce and the other Nightsisters ran to cover. Luce rode upon the top of a stolen Separatist Armored Assault Tank and shot at the droids ahead with a new energy bow. She watched as General Grievous dueled Ventress, and as Ventress was defeated and wounded, Luce retreated to help Ventress from the battlefield. However, a blaster bolt shot from a B1-Series battle droid struck her back. She fell down and begged Ventress to save herself before dying shortly after. Ventress avenged her death by destroying the droid that killed her. However, Grievous stormed the Nightsister fortress and slaughtered all the Nightsisters except Nightsister Mother Talzin and Ventress herself.
