**Tira Selia Bashorye** was a human female serving the Galactic Empire as an influential officer. Quickly ascending as one of the Imperial Navy's heavy voices, she became a central figure in the survival of the Empire's integrity after its defeat at the Battle of Endor and its subsequent fragmentation.

Born as a single child to a family of wealthy entrepeneurs on the Core world of Anaxes, Tira grew up in a loving family and experienced a happy childhood as among the planet's elite. However, the invasion and brutal occupation of the planet by the Confederacy of Independent Systems in the Clone Wars disrupted her youth, witnessing the torture and harsh treatment of her parents which she later blamed on the Galactic Republic for not intervening in the occupation at first. Bashorye developed a keen resentment for the Republic and galactic politics while engaging in local insurgencies as a child spy to Anaxes' resistance movement.

After Republican forces finally invaded Anaxes in 19 BBY and her family was freed, she nonethless hated the Republic and refused to acknowledge their role in driving off the droid armies from the planet. She witnessed first hand the execution of Order 66 and lost her parents to the hunted Jedi Knight Emi Kohy'lee. Her hatred towards the old Republic and Jedi Order radicalized her to accept Emperor Palpatine's public narrative and joined the new Imperial academy on Anaxes as an orphan. She then on quickly rose through the ranks of the Imperial Army.

Her ability to use the blaster properly and precise accuracy in firing enabled her to quickly receive the rank of lieutenant and was later trained as a Shock trooper guarding the Imperial Senate building. There, she and her group foiled an attempt to assassinate Grand Vizier Mas Amedda while attending the Senate chamber's speeches. Emperor Palpatine took notice and promoted her to Darth Vader's personal flag ship and Star Destroyer *Devastator* as an elite Shock trooper. One of his missions to Ryloth however ends in disaster, as her trooper shuttle is shot down by Twi'lek insurgents and her platoon hunted down in the town of Meaja. However, Bashorye was able to execute an influential member of the Free Ryloth movement which earned her the respect of Darth Vader and captaincy over her own Star Destroyer, the *Suppressor*, which she rechristened the *Intrepid*.

By 0 BBY, she has risen to the rank of Commodore and attended the meetings of the Joint Chiefs as advisory observer, before publicly stating her unease with the growing rebellious activities in the Outer Rime and support for Cassio Tagge's argumentation. After the destruction of the Death Star and the promotion of Cassio Tagge for his foresight of the Rebel Alliance's growing threat, she was promoted as well by Emperor Palpatine to replace the lost Navy staff as Fleet Admiral of the Fourth Fleet, the Empire's third largest naval fleet currently in service.

With the decisive defeat of the Empire at the Battle of Endor and the death of its Emperor, the remainder of the Empire quickly dwindled in power and cohesion which deeply shook Bashorye, trying to maintain the *status quo* of Imperial military forces now defending from the reformed New Republic. As over time an Imperial victory quickly grew impossible, she resisted the cowardice of her fellow officers and tried to negotiate with the New Republic over a ceasefire and long lasting coexistance to preserve the Empire's sovereignty. Her efforts came to fruition with the defeat of most of the Empire's petty warlords and claimants of succession and the signing of the Galactic Concordance and later the Pellaeon-Gavrimson Treaty, which virtually ended the Galactic Civil War and enabled both factions to preserve their agendas, culminating with the official foundation of the New Republic and Imperial Remnant by 9 ABY.

Tira Bashorye continued to serve in the Imperial Navy as one of its administrative leaders, before being voted in and succeeding Pallaeon's office of Supreme Commander of the Imperial Military in 15 ABY on Bastion, reforming the remaining Galactic Empire into a democratic state, with her as its Head of State. She continued to liberalize the state and better off its diplomatic relations to the New Republic, keeping a close friendship with General Hera Syndulla. By 17 ABY, Bashorye was one of the most influential public figures in galactic politics.
