Jora Astane

Jora Astane was a human female who held the title of Preserver in an enclave of Alderaanians on the planet Sullust. She led her collective and attempted to stay hidden after the destruction of Alderaan, when the Galactic Empire hunted surviving Alderaanians across the galaxy. Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan arrived on Sullust to rescue the Alderaanians there, but Astane and her people initially mistook Organa for a traitor. After Organa helped Astane and her people repel invading Imperial forces, Astane pledged her allegiance to the princess.
