Sola (orphan)

Sola was a self-sufficient, orphan girl who used to live in an orphanage before she eventually joined a rebel convoy transporting civilians to a hidden rebel world in an effort to escape the Empire. On the convoy she met a rebel named Davith Elso who took her under his wing, eventually becoming her adopted guardian. The Empire ambushed the convoy, and the transport she was on managed to jump to hyperspace and escape the battle. Eventually, the hyperdrive gave out near the planet Tatooine, where the damaged ship crashed. Sola, along with the other survivors, set up a camp but were eventually attacked by the Stormtrooper Captain Terro and his forces.

With the help of Jabba the Hutt's men, the rebels managed to force the Imperial forces to retreat, but in turn became Jabba's prisoners. Sola and the other survivors were brought to Jabba's Palace where they were imprisoned while Davith and the other rebels went on missions for Jabba. Eventually, the rebels fought back and attacked the palace, but Jabba anticipated this betrayal. He brought Sola and a few other survivors to his audience chamber and chained them by the necks. The rebels managed to make their way to the chamber and defeat the Hutt and his rancor, successfully freeing the survivors. Sola, Davith, and the rest of the rebels and survivors made their way back to civilization, and boarded a transport, leaving the planet behind.
