BIOGRAPHY

Arika Thorne was a blue-skinned Twi'lek born in 143 ABY on Felucia. Her parents did not want her to become a 'faceless soldier of the Empire,' but the naive Arika enlisted in the Imperial Navy. After her training, she was assigned to the corvette Hyperion to serve under

Lieutenant Naale. She quickly developed a friendship with the lieutenant, her optimistic view of the galaxy in stark contrast with the Chiss' depressed and more experienced outlook.



Arika is always enthusiastic and encouraging, albeit slightly naive. She enjoys helping others where she can and has a very black-and-white 'good guys versus bad guys' view of the galaxy. Unusually for most female Twi'leks, her ear cones are quite small and barely noticeable.
