Inyri Forge

Inyri Forge was a Human female from Kessel. The younger sister of former Rogue Lujayne Forge, Inyri joined Rogue Squadron shortly after the conquest of Coruscant.

Biography
Inyri was born on Kessel to Kassar and Myda Forge. Kassar was a teacher who volunteered to go to Kessel under a Galactic Republic program to educate inmates on how to re-enter society upon release. Her mother was one of the inmate students who fell in love with him and decided to stay with him on Kessel.

Inyri had multiple brothers and sisters (including Lujayne), all of whom were still alive and living on Kessel in 6.5 ABY.

While planning the Coruscant battle, officials decided to free some high profile prisoners in order to cause chaos in the heart of the Empire. One of those prisoners was Zekka Thyne, of the Black Sun organization. Along with Zekka came Inyri, his "glitterstim cutter" and lover. Inyri, being born on Kessel, and not sent there, was not a criminal, but she was insistent on staying with Zekka, even when the squadron offered to aid her.

However, things changed as the undercover mission on Coruscant progressed. Inyri began to rethink her loyalty towards Zekka, especially after an incident when they came under fire, and he ran to save himself while Rogue member Gavin Darklighter came to her aid.

Finally, things came to a head when Zekka attempted to kill Corran Horn, whom he blamed for putting him on Kessel in the first place. Inyri shot and killed Zekka before he could go through with it. Having proven herself, Inyri joined the Rogues for the Coruscant battle, and was inducted formally into the squadron in the celebration afterwards.

Inyri had been a steady member of Rogue Squadron ever since. She survived many major battles, and many of her squadronmates. She also achieved the rank of Major during the Caamas Document Crisis, and continued to serve with the squadron well into the Yuuzhan Vong War.

Behind the scenes
The portrait of Inyri from Star Wars Insider 59 is obviously based on a publicity photo of Natalie Portman used during her casting in The Phantom Menace.
