Biography
Qi'ra was a female human who was born a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. She was noted to had grown up to be an orphaned street thief that lived on the shipbuilding world of Corellia. During this time, she came to meet Han were the pair became lovers where they sought a better life for themselves. In these years, she came to operate as a member of the White Worms who were headed by a crime lord named Lady Proxima. At one point, Han and Qi'ra were sent on a job to seal some valuable coaxium that was a potent fuel source. Secretly, they kept the coaxium for themselves as they intended to use it to bribe their way off-world and had to escape Lady Proxima's henchmen. They managed to reach the spaceport but Qi'ra was apprehended by the criminal gang before she could escape alongside Han. Before being taken away, she urged him to go on without her where he came to vow to return for her. Qi'ra remained on Corellia for sometime until she attracted the attention of the powerful crime lord Dryden Vos of the Crimson Dawn syndicate. He decided to purchase her and took her on where he began to train her to be a member of his organization. In this time, she came to be trained in Teräs Käsi by Vos and rose to the position of Lieutenant in the syndicate.
Three years later, she was aboard Dryden's mobile headquarters on the First Light that had landed on Vandor. Vos held a party in this time when he was met by his old associate Tobias Beckett who was a noted smuggler. The man had been on a job to steal coaxium for the Crimson Dawn but failed on the mission. Qi'ra came to be shocked to find Han working for Beckett with the two being reunited after all this time. Han had said that he had been working this job in the hope of earning enough credits to free Qi'ra where she came to reveal how Dryden had rescued her on Corellia. However, Vos was displeased at the mission's failure and was prepared to kill Beckett along with his crew though Han suggested that they could steal coaxium from another source. Qi'ra then jumped in with the suggestion of taking unrefined coaxium from Kessel though the problem was finding a refinery to process it before it went volatile. She knew of Lando Calrissian's ship the Millennium Falcon but that they lacked a pilot capable of performing the necessary transport with Han volunteering himself for the task. As such, Dryden Vos agreed to spare Beckett, Han and Chewbacca's lives if they succeeded in their task but warned them of the consequences of failure. For this mission, Qi'ra accompanied the crew in order to ensure that they succeeded in their task.
