Carasynthia Dune

Carasynthia "Cara" Dune was an Alderaanian human female who served as a shock trooper in the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the New Republic during the Galactic Civil War. A seasoned warrior, she was an intimidating brawler and a crack shot. About a year prior to the Battle of Yavin, Dune had risen through the ranks to become a leader of a squad of rebel commandos, including her close friend Ulvac, and gained the attention of high ranking army leaders such as Clone Captain Rex due to her exploits on an infiltration mission to Iakar. As a result of this she was selected by Rex to participate in a mission to Kashyyyk in order to reinforce the resistance movement there.
Following the destruction of Alderaan, in which she lost everyone she cared about, Dune developed an intense hatred of the Galactic Empire and those associated with it, dedicating herself to the Rebellion entirely in order to see the Empire fall. By 9 ABY, however, after the Empire was defeated and most of its leadership seemingly gone, the New Republic became more focused on peacekeeping tasks such as escorting delegates and suppressing riots. Dune came to regard these as tasks she had not signed up for, and so left the Republic to reinvent herself as a mercenary.
After spending time on the planet Sorgan she met the bounty hunter Din Djarin, and his companion, Grogu, and worked with the Mandalorian for a short time before his departure. Djarin later returned to enlist Dune to help him combat an Imperial remnant on Nevarro. After their mission, Dune stayed on Nevarro to work with Djarin's former employer, Greef Karga. Eventually, she was assigned as a Marshal of Nevarro by the New Republic. She used her credentials to release Migs Mayfeld from the Karthon Chop Fields, as his help was requested by Djarin. After they retrieved the coordinates for Gideon's light cruiser, she assisted Djarin to rescue Grogu from the ship, and captured Gideon.
==Personality and traits==
After her homeworld was destroyed, Cara Dune was fiercely determined to see the Empire fall, carrying an intense hatred of all Imperial officers and those associated with them. Following the Battle of Endor, when most Imperial officials were seemingly gone or dealt with, Dune became dissatisfied with her position as a shock trooper, citing that protecting delegates and suppressing riots was not what she signed up for.
Resigning from the New Republic, she moved past her days of military discipline and reinvented herself as a mercenary. Upon learning that "the Client" was a former Imperial, Dune was instantly willing to leave Sorgan in order to kill him. She was also unwilling to be captured by Moff Gideon, fearing the punishment that the Imperial remnant would inflict upon her. When Karga offered her a place in the Bounty Hunters' Guild, she expressed clerical concerns about her chain code, though Karga revealed they would be of no worry if she became his enforcer.
==Skills and abilities==
Having served as a shock trooper for the Rebel Alliance and New Republic, Dune was highly skilled with blasters and in hand-to-hand combat. She was able to fight Din Djarin, an accomplished Mandalorian warrior, to a standstill during their first encounter, and later defeated an intimidating male Zabrak during a brawl. Due to her extensive military training she gained formidable strength and muscle mass, enabling her to overpower most of her opponents with ease.
