Biography [ ]

Risha had a very odd childhood. Her mother died while she was not all the same old plenty to call back her. Her father, Nok Drayen, gave her lessons on how to survive in the milky way, including didactics her to fire a blaster while she was four years former. While Nok was running his pirate gang, a Twi'lek slave he freed, Vette, bonded with Risha, and they were like sisters until they afterwards separated. At one indicate Nok took his daughter to the pirate haven of Rishi, where piddling Risha was afraid of the blackness sand at first, but came to enjoy the trip past the end.^[iv] By the historic period of eleven, when Nok was forced to freeze himself in carbonite to stave off a affliction a traitorous lieutenant infected him with, Risha successfully made her commencement hyperspace spring to Dantooine, where her father had a hideout. For a few years afterwards, Dantooine's population doubled due to Risha'southward and her begetter'south presence.

By the age of fourteen, after studying many of Nok's holorecordings on the ways of criminals, she hid her father and left Dantooine under a new identity. In her travels in the intervening years, she befriended the Togruta couple Juran and Audila Reb and had dealings with Beryl Thorne. At some signal she spent some time on Makeb laying low after a successful job.^[5] By the end of the Great Galactic War, the Sith Empire'southward Treasury Department had posted a 1,000,000-credit bounty on her caput.^[1]

During the Cold War, Risha partnered with the criminal Skavak to search for her family crown, which her great-grandfather, Male monarch Arak Drayen III, had hidden from the usurper of the throne of Dubrillion. However, the ship she was on belonged to a smuggler who was determined to go it back. When the smuggler reclaimed the send, with Risha on it, she offered the smuggler the same bargain she had given Skavak, promising that she would make her new partner "filthy rich" if they allied with her.

In searching for the Drayen crown, Risha helped to upgrade the smuggler'south ship. To attain this, they made deliveries to Taris, Nar Shaddaa, Tatooine and Alderaan to learn the necessary send upgrades.

Afterwards getting all the upgrades, Risha received a holocall from Juran, who revealed that Audila had been kidnapped. Her kidnapper was demanding that Risha meet him on Tatooine; if non, he would kill Audila. Risha knew this was a plot of the usurper king to draw her out and enlisted the smuggler's aid in rescuing her friend, though she did not disembalm her past. The meeting place with the kidnapper was in an former Czerka mine. Confirming information with her contacts, Risha discovered an ore-processing shaft the smuggler could infiltrate and surprise the assassin while she seemingly complied with his demand.

Upon meeting, Risha demanded that the assassin let Audila go, but the assassin stated that his liege, King Actavarus 3 of Dubrillion, specifically ordered no witnesses. Luckily, Risha's partner arrived in time and killed the assassin and his men. Every bit a relieved Juran reunited with his wife, Audila demanded to know why she was kidnapped, to which Risha refused to answer. As a upshot, Audila threatened to sever ties with her, but Risha and the smuggler persuaded her to give her friend another chance. Risha provided the happy couple some credits to beginning up elsewhere. Audila accepted but reminded her that she would want an answer anytime.

Assumption ends hither.

Nok gave the smuggler the location of the crown's resting place in a region of space called the Long Shadow. Once the smuggler returned with the crown, Nok instructed Risha to take the crown and retake the throne of Dubrillion. Claiming that, if she was to succeed, she would need to perform many questionable actions, Risha'due south father ordered her to kill the smuggler, stating that one spacer would not be missed. Risha refused to kill her friend. With his dying breath, Nok expressed how disappointed he was in her. After he died, Risha instructed Doctor Chelah to dispose of her father'due south body co-ordinate to his wishes and formally released the Selkath from her family'south service.

Turning to the smuggler, she remarked that she only had a crown only no army or fleet to retake Dubrillion. Thus, she chose to stay with her friend as their outset mate. Also, she informed the Galactic Finders Guild to credit the smuggler for finding the Drayen treasure.

In her travels with the smuggler, Risha began planning to retake Dubrillion, starting past trying to find allies among the elite who detested the current king's rule. She discovered a possible ally in a lesser baron, just she quickly identified him as a spy for King Actavarus III. With the aid of several Hutts that owed her a favor, she set a trap for the spy on Nar Shaddaa and promised to send a holorecording of the trap to the rex.

Eventually, Risha found an honest marry in Count Merritt Rineld, who was rallying the aristocracy confronting Actavarus. Communicating with him via holo, Rineld explained that he planned to depose Actavarus without bloodshed. Simply to cement Risha's merits to the throne, he abruptly proposed spousal relationship. Risha later met with Rineld on Coruscant in the Senate Belfry and determined he was a adept ally for retaking the throne, though clearly extremely infatuated and drastic. Unfortunately, Actavarus condemned Rineld to death, starting a chain of events that plunged Dubrillion into civil war. Rineld managed to escape and contacted Risha, asking if she would take his proposal. Risha considered it for Dubrillion'south sake, but was then surprised at an alternative marriage proposal from the smuggler just prior to speaking to the count, particularly given how she had treated their relationship equally casual and fabricated information technology clear she would ally nobility. Whilst at starting time assertive it to be a joke, the smuggler reaffirmed his proposal whilst on a holocall to the count every bit they discussed the count's proposal. She accepted the smuggler happily, and apologized to the count. She so agreed to ensure that the smuggler would be given kingship should they retake the throne, and they said their vows to each other on the ship before consummating their marriage.

During the Eternal Empire'southward Conquest, the smuggler went missing. Risha searched Wild Infinite for three years until finally giving up.
