Fatimah Nurii

Fatimah Nurii was a female that served in the Galactic Empire as a Captain and sub-commander. Born on the planet Commenor, she attended the Imperial Navy Academy on Prefsbelt IV, originally aspiring to be a litigator for the Imperial Navy's office of the barrister advocate. However, without family connections or contacts to help her get into the office, she was assigned to the Navy's Military Police as a common shore patrol officer for the garrison on Scarif. During her time there, Nurii learned about the Death Star and became increasingly troubled by the Empire's harsh brutality. She sought to find an excuse to safely leave Scarif and alert the galaxy of the superweapon.

Nurii was a no-nonsense officer who had a gift for leadership and was an excellent judge of character.
