==Biography==
Freya Fenris was a skilled racing pilot from Yir Tangee. By 34 ABY,Star Wars Resistance executive producers stated at a Lucasfilm press event that the show's first season began six months before Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which took place in 34 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas and ended during the events of the film itself. Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition established the show's premiere took place after the Mission to Megalox Beta. Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious dated that mission to 8011 C.R.C., the equivalent of 34 ABY in another dating system. This means the entirety of Star Wars Resistance first season, including "The Recruit," takes place in 34 ABY. her skills had earned her a place among the Ace Squadron of the Colossus platform on the ocean planet Castilon, flying her ship, the Red Ace. Besides racing, Fenris and her fellow Aces defended the platform from pirate attacks and also escorted convoys.
===Defending the Colossus===
When Captain Kragan Gorr's Warbird gang attacked the station, she and her fellow Ace pilots Torra Doza, Hype Fazon, and Bo Keevil in fighting off the pirates. They fought well, despite being outnumbered. When the pirates retreated, Fenris attributed the victory to the Aces' skill, although Doza had doubts, suspecting another factor. Unbeknownst to both women, Doza was correct, as Kazuda Xiono, a Resistance spy recently sent to the Colossus, covertly aided the pilots by broadcasting feedback over the pirates' communications channel.
===First Order emissaries===
Some time later, she led Keevil and Griff Halloran in escorting in a fuel freighter while the Colossus was under a power outage. This freighter was carrying a First Order delegation led by Major Elrik Vonreg, who had come to discuss a proposal with Captain Imanuel Doza, the ruler of the Colossus. Unknown to everyone, the First Order was behind the pirate attacks to take over the station to use it as part of a military supply line to refuel their fleets for the upcoming War with the Resistance.
===The second pirate raid===
While Fenris and her fellow Aces were escorting an important supply shipment, the Warbird gang launched a second raid on the Colossus. Though the pirates were rebuffed by Team Fireball and undercover pirate Synara San, the pirate raid led Captain Doza to consider the First Order's "protection offer."
===The Platform Classic===
Fenris and her fellow Aces took part in the Platform Classic against galactic racing champion Marcus Speedstar and his estranged older brother Jarek Yeager. After Griff's racer crashed into the sea, Fenris was able to move up fifth place. Ultimately Yeager allowed Speedstar to win the race so that Speedstar could pay a ransom freeing his friend Oplock from the Guavian Death Gang.
===Xiono's undercover mission===
Prior to a visit by Stormtrooper Commander Pyre, Fenris and Griff covered Torra's patrol shift since her father wanted to keep her safe from the last remnant of the Galactic Empire. Later, Fenris was socializing with the others at the Aces' Lounge in Doza Tower when Torra entered with her Xiono. Unknown to everyone, Xiono was copying the First Order’s proposal to Captain Doza at the order of his mentor Commander Poe Dameron.
===Casual adventures===
Later, Freya and her fellow Aces took part in a race. Though Torra initially had the lead, she burned up all her booster fuel too early, allowing Hype to take the lead.
Fenris later accompanied her fellow Aces on a mission to escort an incoming shipment. When the ship was unable to slow down due to damage from a pirate attack, the Aces under Hype's leadership worked together to slow down the ship's descent.
===Bibo incident===
During the Bibo incident, Freya and Ace Squadron flew their racers in the defense of the Colossus against Bibo's mother, a rokkna sea monster. Despite being helped by Kaz, Ace Squadron were unable to drive away the sea monster. When Freya reported their cannons were not working, Kaz's friend Neeku Vozo managed to convince the Aces to hold their fire. Neeku managed to bring an end to the siege by returning Bibo to its mother.
===Kidnapping of Torra Doza===
Following the kidnapping of Torra, Freya and her fellow pilots were dispatched in pursuit of her pirate kidnappers. Torra was rescued by Major Elrik Vonreg, who convinced Captain Pyre to accept First Order protection.
===First Order occupation===
During the First Order's military occupation of the Colossus, Commander Pyre cancelled all races and banned Ace Squadron from flying. When Captain Doza broke the news to them, Freya was the first to protest against it. When Hype stormed off, Torra tried to follow him, but Freya told her to let him go, saying he just needed to "blow off some steam."
===Escaping from Castilon===
When tensions escalated between the Colossus and the First Order, Freya and most of Ace Squadron got imprisoned in the Colossus' brig. While the First Order’s garrison was distracted elsewhere, Captain Doza freed them, telling them to get to their ships and defend the station. The Aces, along with Yeager and Xiono, engaged the TIE fighters patrolling the station's airspace, with the help of the Colossus' turbolasers, and later Gorr's pirates. When a Resurgent-class Star Destroyer appeared in Castilon's atmosphere, Freya and Ace Squadron retreated to the Colossus, and stood watching in the hangar as the station escaped into hyperspace.
===Skirmish over D'Qar===
While a salvage team from the Colossus was searching the wreckage of the Dreadnought the Fulminatrix above the planet D'Qar, Commander Pyre and First Order Security Bureau Agent Tierny's Star Destroyer found them, and TIE fighters were sent to attack the station. Captain Doza ordered Freya and Ace Squadron to defend the Colossus and buy time. Freya expressed concern Ace Squadron was outnumbered, but they held off the First Order long enough for the salvage team to secure a canister of coaxium. Ace Squadron was ordered to retreat, and Freya announced they would have to come in hot, as the station was in motion while they were trying to land. Ace Squadron made it into the hangar, and the Colossus jumped to hyperspace shortly afterward again.
===Combat training===
After the Colossus's escape from D'Qar, Freya, Torra, Griff and Bo were demoralized, feeling they were outmatched by the First Order. Captain Doza's solution to this problem was making Xiono the newest member of Ace Squadron, and appointing Yeager to be their Squadron Leader, as the former was a military trained pilot of the fallen New Republic Defense Fleet and the latter was a Commander with many years of experience during his days with the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Freya was visibly shocked by this announcement, but agreed with Torra's assessment they should give Xiono and Yeager a chance.
Ace Squadron met in Yeager's hangar to discuss the plan for their training, although Freya wondered why they could not hold the briefing in a nicer location but Yeager said they were doing this to survive. Yeager announced they would be having a skirmish on a nearby ice moon with two teams- Kaz and himself, versus the others to test their skills. Despite being outnumbered, Kaz and Yeager overpowered the others. Freya briefly locked onto Kaz, but was flanked by Yeager before she could successfully land a hit.
For their second training exercise, Yeager split Ace Squadron into pairs. Freya teamed up with Bo, but before they could join the skirmish, the Aces were attacked by a jakoosk, which grabbed Yeager's ship and began pulling it towards its mouth. Freya and the others rescued Yeager using Hype's idea to knock an ice pillar down onto the creature. Later, Freya joined the Aces and some other residents of the Colossus at Aunt Z's to celebrate their success.
===Difficulties on the Colossus===
Freya was present when Captain Doza tried to reassure the residents of the Colossus when the stations' food supplies ran out, and watched as many of the inhabitants announced their intention to leave. She also watched as engineer Nenavakasa Nalor performed repairs in the Aces' Lounge, and celebrated that they would be able to have "Hologame nights" again.
===Supply run on Ashas Ree===
When the Colossus made a stop at the planet Ashas Ree, Captain Doza assigned Freya, Torra and Kaz the task of going on a supply run there. Unbeknownst to Freya and Torra, Kaz allowed Kel and Eila to sneak on board the supply shuttle. As they approached the planet, Freya observed that she was unable to contact anyone at the trade outpost. Upon landing, they discovered the marketplace was abandoned, and its residents left behind warnings about some unnamed "evil" written on the walls. Freya was slightly unnerved, but decided they shouldn't let the abandoned supplies go to waste, and proposed they split up and meet back up in an hour.
Freya and Torra regrouped at the shuttle on time, but Kaz and CB-23 were nowhere to be seen. Adding to their worries, Freya noticed that additional ships had appeared on the shuttle's sensors, and Torra confirmed that her father hadn't sent anyone else from the Colossus. The ships turned out to be First Order Raiders, who captured Freya, Torra and their droids, and began interrogating them. When questioned, Freya lied that no one else came to Ashas Ree with them. However, the elite stormtroopers quickly discovered and captured Kaz, CB-23, and the children, who just exited the temple near the marketplace.
Just as the First Order Raiders began to question Kaz, the archaeologist Mika Grey shouted from the top of the temple, revealing she had the Sith artifact the elite stormtroopers were after for Supreme Leader Kylo Ren. They threatened to kill the hostages if she did not hand it over, so Mika activated the artifact and threw it at them, calling out a warning which allowed Freya and the others to narrowly avoid the resulting blast by hiding in the temple. Once the coast was clear, they left the temple, and CB-23 removed the restraints from Freya and Torra's wrists.
Freya raised no objection when Eila proposed that Mika should come live on the Colossus, but told Kaz she thought Mika seemed like trouble. The group then took off and returned to the Colossus. Freya later flew the Red Ace at the Battle of Exegol as a member of the Citizens' Fleet assembled by General Lando Calrissian to help the Resistance win their final match with the First Order alongside Yeager, Kaz, Torra, her father, Hype, and Bo.
