Alyss's mother Lenore was grooming her daughter to go into Politics, though with her older brothers death in the Royal Imperial Academy due to a freak accident, Alyss was forced to change course by both of her parents, and soon attending the Imperial Academy after her sixteenth birthday.

Though after the *Shadow*'s Captain died under mysterious circumstances, Alyss was given yet another promotion, to Captain. Usurping her former superior as captain of the *Shadow*, and serving the Empire faithfully. Shortly after her promotion, the newly minted Captain Lawlor would participate in a battle against a force of Pirates in the Daanlang System destroying them utterly.

#### The Battle of Vasch

The Battle of Vasch was a low point in Captain Lawlor's career, a Force of Pirates calling themselves the Blighted Eye had been amassing in the Vasch System, and Jabba the Hutt had requested the Empire deal with them, as they were threatening his Cartel. Captain Lawlor was selected to deal with them, and was given command of a Task Force and five other light cruisers. Though this force was far outnumbered by the pirates under Malador of the Blighted Eye. The Losses were horrible by the end of the Slaughter, 1,407 Crewmen and all of the 144 TIE Pilots that had been sent out to fight. Alyss herself bore part of the carnage receiving a beating from a boarding Pirate Force that left bruises enough for the entire bridge crew. All was not lost however as Samantha Lawlor, Alyss's wife had joined her for the Battle In her own Transport and quickly evacuated the Battle when she saw the overbearing force and called for Assistance on the Imperial HoloNet which was quickly received In the form of: Colonel Aeon Saxon bringing his own Fleet to bear alongside a small contingent of Vessels from a High General Bacon Onzo, and Lieutenant-Commander Sasha Sakotem. With two Star Destroyers and more than a dozen cruisers.

#### Capture

In late 2 BBY Captain Lawlor was imprisoned by a Rebel Cell after being abducted while she was off duty, in a Cantina. She was held in a cell on a rebel frigate, though escaped five separate times during her time there, using her natural charisma as well as her body to beguile her guards into letting her out of her cell. Though the frigates captain would freeze her in carbonite after the fifth time, intending to unfreeze her later for interrogation. She would remain frozen far longer than expected however, being unfrozen almost three months after entering carbonite, after the rebel base she had been transported too was attacked in an operation by Imperial Special Forces Lieutenant-Commander Adrianna Lycra.
