==Behind the scenes==
Civé Rashon's origins lie with a TIE/LN starfighter prop with a TIE pilot in the cockpit for the 1980 original trilogy film, Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.Star Wars Chronicles She was brought into the Star Wars Legends continuity for a card in the 1998 Special Edition Limited expansion set of Decipher's Star Wars Customizable Card Game, while being simultaneously mentioned on Dodson Makraven's card for the same set.
In the 2003 massively multiplayer online role-playing game Star Wars Galaxies, Rashon was added to the game as a non-player character in Game Update 20 of its The Complete Online Adventures expansion, published on August 18, 2011. In the game, the name Civé did not have an accentuated letter E. Rebel players who requested Tier 7 Duty Missions from certain space stations had a chance to battle an elite Imperial pilot during the mission's boss stage. One of these pilots could be Rashon. All of the elite Imperial pilots, Rashon included, had shared quotes randomly generated during the battle. If the player defeated her, she was not destroyed. Instead, a message was displayed to the player indicating that they successfully defeated the pilot, and they were awarded with a collection icon as well.
Elite Imperial pilots also flew in various space battles, which took place in the Corellian, Dantooine, Karthakk, Naboo, and Tatoo systems. As Rashon only appeared in the space portion of Star Wars Galaxies, originally added with the Jump to Lightspeed expansion pack, she could normally only be seen inside her respective TIE/LN starfighter. However, a comm display could appear during the battle that displayed the character's face in addition to the collection icon the player was rewarded for defeating her. Although players could choose not to participate in any of the battles or collections connected to Rashon, this article assumes 100% game completion.
