Aeron Azzameen

Aeron Azzameen was the only daughter of Tomaas Azzameen. She had two older brothers, Galin and Emon and one younger, "Ace" Azzameen, whom she took under her wing.

Biography
Aeron Azzameen was the lone daughter of Tomaas Azzameen and the third of the four Azzameen children. She, along with the rest of the Azzameen household, lived in Azzameen Home Base, a space station. When she came of age, she began working for the family business, Twin Suns Transport Services, and typically flew a YT-1300 light freighter, though she was able to pilot her father's YT-2000 light freighter. While working for her father and uncle, she met Olin Garn, a freelance freighter under contract by Twin Suns Transport Services. The two began to bond to the point that Garn was soon considered a member of the Azzameen household. Eventually, Olin Garn left the employment of Twin Suns Transport Services to join the Alliance to Restore the Republic; he maintained contact with Aeron throughut his tenure.

Training an Azzameen
"You've spent enough time playing simulator games that dad is convinced it's time to put you to work. He's asked me to take you on a delivery run to Harlequin Station."

- Aeron gives her brother, Ace, an overview of his first mission

When Tomaas decided that it was time the youngest Azzameen, Ace, was to learn to fly so he could also assist in the family trade around 3 ABY, the responsibility to train the new recruit fell upon Aeron. For her first training session, Aeron told Ace, who would be flying with the family MK-series maintenance droid MK-09, that the two of them would make a round-trip to Harlequin Station to drop off and pick up supplies. Both groups flew YT-1300 freighters: Ace, the Sabra, and Aeron the Selu. On the way back to their home, however, the two Azzameens were intercepted by a quick attack on Harlequin Station by the Enkidu, a Pursuer-class enforcement ship, and an accompaniment flying under the Viraxo flag. Though reluctant at first, Aeron agreed to assist the station once the hostile ships attacked and, with the aid of Emkay and Ace, chased the offending units out of the system.

Once the delivery was finished, Aeron shifted her attention to creating a new security system for the family's database. While her efforts proved fruitful, in the process she accidentally deleted the entire database, forcing a manual inspection of the individual containers in the family cargo fields. She enlisted the assistance of Ace and MK-09 and left on the twin YT-1300s. After a brief scuffle with raiders in the field, Aeron and Ace discovered was a crate of illegal spice planted by the Enkidu; Ace chased off the Pursuer-class while Aeron retrieved the container and took it home.

Dealing with the Viraxo
Once the Azzameen children returned home and reported their discovery, uncle Antan Azzameen hatched a plan of retribution against the Viraxo. Aeron was tasked with changing the ID codes for the Selu for a covert mission involving a setup using the Viraxo spice and Imperial entanglements. Aeron was successful, and flew the YT-1300, now known as the Venix, carrying the crate to Viraxo 54 under the guise of normal spaceport traffic. Ace and Emon were to show up shortly thereafter to conduct a hit-and-run attack on the station, drawing the attention of the Empire's forces and forcing the Viraxo to explain the existence of the illegal spice.

The mission did not go as planned, however. Aeron's brothers entered the system too early, forcing her to abort her mission, dump the cargo, and attempt to escape detection. Unfortunately for Aeron, though Ace and Emon were able to destroy most of the attacking craft, the Venix was disabled and had to be abandoned and destroyed. Aeron left the ship in a Zero-G uniform and was picked up by Emon, who left Viraxo space and returned to their home. Though the mission did not go off as planned, the result was what Antan had intended, and congratulated the Azzameen children on their work. Tomaas, however, was less than enthusiastic about his brother's decision to send his children into such dangerous circumstances.

Soon after the Viraxo 54 debacle, though, Tomaas enlisted the assistance of his children to fly cover for the GR-75 medium transport Vasudra as it was to make a cargo transfer of bacta with a group of smugglers. In this mission, Aeron was to fly the YT-2000 light freighter Otana, her father's favored ship. Initially, the transfer went as planned; however, the Azzameens' suspicions were aroused when the smugglers' ship End Run claimed that they had a problem with their pumps and sent three workers to fix them. A few seconds into this supposed repair, Aeron noticed that the workers were headed for the Vasudra's engines, and she correctly called the resulting double-cross. Each of the Azzameen children intercepted the saboteurs and incoming CloakShape fighters and, after the Azzameens' display of power, the End Run completed the transfer and exited the system. Aeron was left at home as Tomaas, Galin, Emon, Ace, and Emkay made their way to deliver the bacta to a clandestine hospital set up for those wounded at the Battle of Hoth.

The Viraxo strike back
"Hailing Rebel commander, this is Aeron Azzameen. The Empire has just driven me and my family from our home. We seek your protection. May we approach?"

- Aeron hails the commander of the fleet

Unfortunately for the Azzameens, forces would once again conspire to act against them. Imperial entanglements intervened in the bacta transfer, forcing the hospital's residents to evacuate and the transfer to fail. Even more devastating for the Azzameen family was the loss of the Vasudra and the crew of Tomaas and Galin. With the Azzameen family declared traitors to the Empire, Antan correctly anticipated that Imperial Forces were soon to arrive and seize the family's assets. Antan sent out two taskgroups to recover as many of the family's holdings as possible; The first of these taskgroups contained Antan piloting his Action IV transport Big Score and Emon piloting the Andrasta, and the second containing Aeron flying the Sabra and Ace flying the Otana. Aeron's group was tasked with retrieving warheads and the contents of Antan's safe aboard Twin Sun Station. The two arrived at the station and began gathering the target supplies; however, halfway through Aeron's collection efforts, a flight group composed of Imperial and Viraxo forces entered the system and began assaulting the station and its fleeing employees. Ace managed to hold the intruders long enough to allow Aeron and himself to exit the area, forfeiting Twin Suns Station to the Empire.

The two rendezvoused at Azzameen Home Base, expecting to meet the Big Score and Andrasta. However, they were forced to wait as neither ship had made it back. Aeron and MK-09 discussed the options they had if something happened to Antan, but had only a few moments to dwell on that as four Razor Fighters entered the system and engaged the freighters. The offending starfighters were soon dispatched, leaving the two Corellian freighters alone, awaiting word from the other taskgroup. This news would come shortly thereafter when the Andrasta entered Azzameen space; Antan had been captured, and their uncle didn't have the opportunity to divulge his planned location for the family to ride out the Imperial storm. After determining that the Viraxo were behind the Imperial entanglements, the family remnant discussed their options. The short discussion was made even shorter by the entrance of the Imperial II class Star Destroyer Corrupter.

Faced with nearly no options, Aeron suggested joining the Rebel Alliance by relying on Olin Garn's status and word to counter any suspicions concerning the botched bacta run. She provided her brothers with the coordinates Garn had given her in case of trouble, and the remaining Azzameens left their home. Once among the rebels, Aeron hailed the fleet and explained their situation. The Mon Calamarian commander she spoke with expressed sympathy towards the loss of Tomaas and welcomed them aboard, but also showed surprise at the discovery of the fleet. Aeron told him about her friend, who had become a fairly prominent starfighter pilot, and was then told that the matters would be handled in person. The Azzameens were directed to the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser Defiance, where they would reside for the time being.

Ace and Emkay would end up staying aboard the cruiser as Ace was to join Red Squadron as a new starfighter pilot, while Aeron and Emon would investigate what happened to their uncle. Once Ace had been accepted into the rebellion as one of their pilots, Aeron sent him a congratulatory e-mail. She warned him to be careful, but also praised him for his decision.

Family matters
While Ace moved through his career in the Alliance, Aeron continued sending e-mails, encouraging and reaffirming the burgeoning pilot. Aeron also told him, via e-mail, that she was going to keep a low profile in order to focus on slicing systems in order to track down Antan, who was still missing.

Aeron eventually caught a break in her investigation. She discovered increased activity surrounding a Viraxo facility, Viraxo Industries, and concluded that their uncle was held there. Acting on her findings, Emon contacted Ace and Aeron's brothers headed out to attempt a rescue. Successful, Ace returned back to the Defiance and to combat with Red Squadron.

Aeron's slicing efforts would again prove fruitful for the Azzameen family. As she was going through intercepted communications, Aeron picked up references to a scavenging expedition in the Saila Na system which targeted damaged and abandoned Imperial technology. She instructed Ace to take Emkay and the Otana to recover a stranded Viper probe droids, still in their capsule, left in the wake of the Battle of Hoth. Ace complied and left the Rebel fleet and picked up the probe capsule&mdash;with minor complications caused by a scavenger team also interested in the probe. The Otana then made its way to the customs checkpoint at Tinoon&mdash;which came under attack by pirates, allowing the Otana through without a cargo inspection&mdash;before meeting Aeron in the Sabra sitting in the Zephry Asteroid field. Thanking her brother, Aeron took the capsule and the droid within and studied its communication listening devices. She also made a small probe droid toy from the spare pieces of the droid and gave it to Ace as a gift for his efforts; it originally played music and danced, but Emon ended up breaking it somehow.

Still working off the grid, Aeron's absences caused Olin Garn's suspicions to rise, and the latter contacted Ace about his worries. Around the same time, Ace transferred to the Liberty MC80 Liberty type Star Cruiser as the craft had sustained severe crew deficiencies following the Battle of Hoth.

Dealing with the Rebellion
After coming across talks of a shipment of warheads from the XQ3 Viraxo facility 1 during her slicing efforts, she hatched a plan which would simultaneously aid the Rebel Alliance and harm Viraxo's standing with the Imperials. She consulted Uncle Antan in an effort to gain his permission and support; while wary, Antan agreed to the plan. The Rebellion had been facing a shortage of weapon payloads for some time, and were willing to accept a new supply from anywhere. Aeron, and later Antan, saw the opportunity for profit from this maneuver, a point Aeron used in convincing the family.

She approached Ace, now aboard the Liberty, and told him her plan. Ace complied with his sister's directions, filed for and received leave time, and set out with MK-09 and his sister in the Sabra to eliminate the defenses around 1. After dispatching the modest complement of fighters and static gun defenses, the Sabra flew among the containers, inspecting each for easier identification by the incoming freighters. However, this process was interrupted by the entrance of a bulk cruiser, which launched several squads of Supa Fighters&mdash;fighters Aeron identified as being affiliated with Black Sun. Dealing with this added threat, Ace flew cover for the incoming Azzameen vessels, who collected the containers and entered hyperspace to the rendezvous point. Once the entire group made it, the Rebel fleet arrived and made the cargo transfer. For her part in tracking down the warheads and assisting Ace, Aeron was awarded the Alliance Civilian Battle Award along with her brother. She left Ace after congratulating him and informed Antan the news of Viraxo's affiliation with Black Sun.

After an attack on an Imperial listening post by Ace's squadron, opportunistic Antan saw an opening to plant a listening device in one of the satellites surrounding the post in order to keep tabs on the Viraxo. Working off this reconnaissance, uncle Antan told his niece his plan; she in turn asked Ace's assistance again. The pair of siblings left again on the Sabra and headed for the coordinates of Ace's recent attack. Once there, Ace defeated several Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wings, a Beta-class ETR-3 escort transport Minelayer laying mines, and the mines themselves, while inspecting satellites suitable for a listening device. Eventually he settled for one and Aeron left the craft in a Zero-G worker suit. As she was working, an Imperial patrol force composed of an Assault transport and a complement of Zero-G assault stormtroopers entered the system; this forced Ace and Emkay into action, protecting Aeron and the satellite from attack. Eventually Aeron finished her work, commenting on how much easier it was than she expected, and the three left the system and returned to the Liberty. A pleased Aeron congratulated her brother on another job well done and let him return to his squadron.

The coming storm
Shortly thereafter, Aeron contacted Ace, worried about their brother Emon's disappearance Though Emon claimed it was caused by a so-called "secret" mission, Aeron hypothesized that the mission was in some way connected to getting back at the Viraxo, and told her younger sibling accordingly. While on his personal mission, Emon would send e-mails, showing increasing frustration, to his siblings, complaining about the tendency for the Viraxo and Imperials to always seem to know when the Azzameen family was to do any sort of mission.

Aeron noted another opportunity to assist Rebels in need at the expense of the Viraxo. This time, however, she held back from informing her uncle, knowing that he would disapprove consistently coming to the aid of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Aeron collected a group of former Twin Suns Transport Services employees and several Planetary Fighters still loyal to the disbanded company, and told them of the plan: heist cargo containers from a relatively unguarded Viraxo facility and deliver them to a Rebel outpost in the Vergesso Asteroids. Soon after collecting her forces and forging flight plans, she contacted Ace due to Emon's mission. This time taking the family YT-2000 freighter, the two made contact with the family's freighters stationed at the Bilbringi Shipyards and entered Viraxo space. Aeron again noticed the persistent presence of Black Sun ships, which Ace and the fighters held at bay while the allied freighters and cargo carriers entered and began docking.

The convoy that Aeron expected would arrive later appeared in the system early, bringing with it an escort. Even under this new barrage of attacks, the Azzameen-friendly freighters completed their mission and headed for the asteroid field. Once there, Ace again fended off some enemy ships who had followed them, and after the offenders were gone, docked with the Vergesso shipyard. Aeron decided to stay aboard the shipyard, hoping to learn all that she could about the ties between the Viraxo and the criminal syndicate Black Sun. She told Ace that she hoped the success of this mission would bring their uncle around to seeing the benefit of assisting the Rebel Alliance.

Unfortunately for Aeron, that same shipyard was soon to be targeted by a portion of Darth Vader's own Death Squadron, working off of intelligence gathered by Prince Xizor, head of Black Sun. When the Imperial fleet, consisting of the Imperial Star Destroyer Accuser, several Victory-class Star Destroyers, and Vader's command ship, the Executor-class Star Dreadnought Executor, arrived in the system, Aeron sent an alert to Ace who scrambled to the Otana and rushed back to the Vergesso Asteroids to rescue his sister. The coordinates for the exit from hyperspace placed him right behind the advancing Star Destroyer fleet&mdash;which protected Ace from immediate attack, as it appeared that they hadn't even noticed his entrance&mdash;and Ace made his way through the fleet to Vergesso Base. Once the Otana was in range of Aeron's communicator, she sent off a panicked message urging Ace to hurry.



Ace complied as well as he could, ducking into and out of the attacking crafts' attack vectors, before docking with the north tower of the asteroid. Emkay retrieved Aeron from within, and the Otana, now one passenger heavier, blasted toward the same hyperspace coordinates that had placed Ace and MK-09 in the asteroid field. Avoiding the Executor-class Super Star Destroyer Executor, Ace, Aeron, and MK-09 escaped the doomed system and returned to the Liberty. Once safely aboard the Mon Calamari cruiser, Aeron shared her findings concerning the new alliance between the Viraxo and Black Sun forces. The young slicer determined that this alliance between the two powers would prove to make reestablishing the Azzameen family business even harder than initially expected.

While slicing through Imperial records, Aeron discovered that Emon, whose e-mails had ceased coming, had been captured by the Empire during his clandestine missions. She contacted Dunari, an old friend of Tomaas's and the family, who in turn hired a team of highly skilled slicers. Once the slicers determined the station where Emon was held, Dunari contacted Ace for assistance. The three recovered Emon successfully, and Emon was kept in Dunari's casino, Dunari's Rest.

The rest did not last long. Once Emon was fully recuperated, he was determined to find the leak of information. He had Aeron find the family's datacore; once located, Emon, Ace, and MK-09 flew out to retrieve it. With it safely in the possession of the Azzameens again, Emon thanked Ace and took the datacore to Aeron, hopeful that she could find something useful to stop the leak.

Homecoming
While fighting for the Alliance, Ace received a message from his uncle requesting to be kept up to date on the Rebellion's actions and whereabouts. After ignoring the message, he called his older sister, who agreed with his decision.

Meanwhile, Ace's flight group captured a mercenary freighter in the midst of the Alliance's conflict with a mercenary group who had attacked a Bothan delegation under the guise of being hired by the Sullustans. The mercenary revealed that, while he did not know the location of the base itself, he did know the location of the Redhawk, a bulk cruiser en route to the base with supplies which he was supposed to escort. Bothan Councilor Borsk Fey'lya, angered at the assault on his people, began pressuring the Alliance High Command to uncover the source of the attack and punish the Sullustans for their supposed involvement.

Wanting to keep it from appearing the Rebels were involved for both the safety of their pilots and to appear less public, Aeron's slicing skills were called on for assistance. In turn, Aeron enlisted Ace to fly her to the necessary destinations: first, meeting the Redhawk, docked at a nearby cargo facility, and then to verify the coordinates by flying to the base itself.

Setting off again in the Otana, Ace was to dock with the Redhawk in order for Aeron to be able to slice the flight logs of the ship and pinpoint the location of the base. Once they arrived in the appropriate system and docked with the bulk cruiser, Aeron began her slicing efforts with assistance from MK-09. One past the security measures&mdash;considered an easy task by Aeron&mdash;she began downloading the coordinates. In the middle of the download, Preybird-class starfighters, the Redhawk's escort, entered the system, forcing Ace to hold them off. Soon after the transfer was complete and the Otana left the system and headed for the base.

Unfortunately for the Azzameens, the flight plan was not all it seemed. Instead of leading to the mercenary base, the coordinates dumped the Otana right into the path of the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Chimaera in the Carida system's weaponry testing facilities. The same Star Destroyer was blocking the Otana ' s exit vector, forcing MK-09 to quickly calculate a new set of directions. As the droid was doing so, the crew of the Otana continued to ignore the Chimaera ' s instructions to power down and prepare to be boarded, forcing the Star Destroyers in the system to open fire upon the YT-2000 freighter. Ace deftly avoided the blasts and advancing TIE fighters and, as soon as new hyperspace coordinates were plotted, returned to the cargo station.

Determined to get the coordinates for the base, Aeron instructed Ace to dock with the platform itself in order that she could slice the flight records and determine the real course of the Redhawk. Displeased with the Otana ' s efforts, the station's security team sent a group of IRD Fighters to force the Otana to leave before the Azzameens were finished. The IRD Fighters were unsuccessful, however, and a hurried Aeron entered the new coordinates and urged Ace to follow them. When they arrived at the new coordinates, however, the three aboard the Otana were shocked to find that their old home, Azzameen Home Base, had been renamed the Falcon's nest and taken over by the mercenary group. Stunned into disbelief, Aeron went to check the coordinates just to be sure; Emkay had already done so, however, and confirmed their location. Enraged, Ace went to engage the Preybird-class fighters around the base, but Aeron restrained him, fearful of the consequences of the Otana being identified. The freighter returned to the Liberty and the information was relayed to the Alliance.

With the information provided by the Azzameen children, the Rebellion decided to attack the mercenary base, as it was closer to their rally point than they preferred. Enlisting the help of each affiliated Azzameen&mdash;Emon, Aeron, Ace, and even MK-09&mdash;the Alliance made a set of plans to strike back at the mercenary group and recapture the base. Flying in the Otana with Emkay, Aeron set off with the rest of the Alliance ships. Once in system, she began engaging fighters in order to provide cover for Ace and the rest of the B-wing starfighters in Gold Group.

In the midst of the battle, two ships attempted to flee the system; one of the two was Antan Azzameen's Action IV transport. Noting this odd circumstance, Aeron hailed Emon and asked if what she saw was true. Emon, who had also taken note of the Big Score. Her attempts to contact the fleeing ship, in order to keep Antan from getting lost in all of the confusion, went unheeded. After the mainstay of the fighting was over, Emon left the battle group, intent on tracking their wayward uncle.

Once Storm Unit secured the station, Aeron and MK-09 were called in to assist in combing the main computer core. Unfortunately for the team already working on the core, a fail-safe added by the mercenaries was triggered. Because of the triggering, the entire station was set to be destroyed in just over 3 standard minutes. Aeron, now racing against the clock, made her way to the assembled team and utilized both her skills at slicing and her knowledge of the systems to safely disable the explosive measures and keep the station from destruction. After the success of the mission, Azzameen Home Base was returned to the Azzameen family. Several of the Azzameen's holdings aboard the Liberty were returned to the family space station, with exception of the Otana.

Family reunion
Some time after the recapture of Azzameen Home Base, Antan contacted the Azzameen children and requested that they all meet at Azzameen Home Base, where he would attempt to clear the circumstances following his appearance at the recapturing of Falcon's Nest. Ace, on leave from the Rebellion, met up with his brother and sister at Azzameen Home Base, where the Big Score was waiting. An irate Aeron demanded answers; Antan explained that his actions, though contrary to the well-being of the Rebellion, were intended solely to reestablish the family trading business. To that end, Antan explained that he set up the Sullustans at the request of the Empire in order to recover both Galin and Tomaas. The two, according to Antan, were not killed as it had been believed but instead were captured and kept in a prison facility above the Imperial-held mining world Kessel.

Excited at the prospect of the survival of Galin and Tomaas, Aeron convinced a skeptical Emon to follow through with the plan, and the Azzameens made haste to the Kessel system. Once arrived, Antan instructed Ace, flying the Otana, to dock with Kessel Station so Aeron could board and search the database for the missing Azzameens. She was unable to find them listed in the registry on the first run, but Antan insisted that she keep looking. His request was followed, allowing the Star Destroyer Devastator time to enter the system. Once present, the Devastator commanded the Azzameens to turn over their craft and prepare to be boarded. Antan, his end of the bargain to remove the meddlesome Azzameen children complete, left the system, leaving a bewildered and angered Aeron in his wake.

She urged Ace to abort the docking procedure and leave the system; however, Emkay was unable to calculate a proper set of hyperspace coordinates due to the heavy concentration of black holes in the system. With the Star Destroyer and its fighter complement bearing down on the Andrasta and Otana, the Azzameens feared the worst. It wasn't until the surprise arrival of the allied Dunari that the Azzameens considered the situation anything less than hopeless. The newcomer transmitted a set of viable coordinates and the Azzameens left Kessel Station.

The hyperspace jump landed them just outside an asteroid field nearby. Dunari instructed the two Azzameen ships to navigate through it in order to reach a suitable entry point for their return to the Liberty stationed over Sullust. Ace, with Aeron and MK-09 aboard, and Emon made it through the field, which was littered with asteroid-mounted laser batteries, and past an Imperial Outpost AS-27 before successfully escaping their uncle's trap.

Once back, Ace would go on to attack the second Death Star under construction over the Forest Moon of Endor. Aeron did not take part in the Battle of Endor like her younger brother.

Personality and traits
Aeron Azzameen was a human female with brown hair. Born into the Azzameen family sometime before the Galactic Civil War, Aeron became a skilled pilot while working for her father and uncle. She was most accustomed to flying the family's YT-1300 freighters&mdash;typically using the Selu, until its destruction&mdash;but was also capable of piloting her father's YT-2000, the Otana. In her spare time, Aeron grew skilled with computers and was eventually considered a skillful hacker and slicer&mash;knowledge she was able to use to keep Azzameen Home Base from destruction. Aside from family friend Olin Garn, Aeron kept her sweet and caring nature reserved for the family, and was reluctant to express it outside of the bloodline.

When her brother Ace came of age to start working for the family, Tomaas Azzameen told Aeron to teach the burgeoning pilot. Once her initial training assignment was complete, Aeron continued to mentor her sibling throughout his service to Twin Suns Transport Services and, once the company was forced into closing by Imperial nationalization, into his service with the Alliance to Restore the Republic. She was fiercely devoted to her family, placing the success of the family and the company above her own safety and well-being. When Twin Suns Transport Services was threatened by the intrusive Viraxo, she came up with a plan to covertly exact revenge upon the rival company. Once the Azzameen children were forced to evacuate their holdings and join the rebellion, Aeron pointed her loyalties toward the family's new allies. In this capacity, Aeron formulated several missions to acquire supplies for the Rebel Alliance; these missions also served to cripple the Viraxo, in both their holdings and their relationship with the Empire. Similarly, though open to differing opinions and viewpoints, Aeron was insistent on measures and ideals that she had decided.

Aeron's dedication to her allies often cost her, however, even to the point of nearly dying. Her loyalty to family was inadvertently one of the reasons the family business was forced to fold; a mission to strike back at the rival Viraxo, in which Aeron risked her life in several ways, did not go as she had planned. This botched mission caused the Viraxo to retaliate by calling in the Galactic Empire to seize the Azzameen family's assets. Her sense of dedication to the Rebel Alliance did not go over well with uncle Antan, as Antan, a staunch supporter of staying neutral through the Galactic Civil War, feared the sympathetic Azzameens, including Aeron, would risk the family's trade. This progressively caused tension between the two.

Olin Garn
"I finally got a message from Olin. I'm all for the Rebellion, but it plays havoc with relationships. Not that Olin and I have one. Oh, forget it."

- Aeron Azzameen, in an e-mail to Ace Azzameen

Employed by Twin Suns Transport Services during the years of the Galactic Civil War, Olin Garn met Aeron Azzameen while working for the family. While under contract for the Azzameen's business, Garn grew close to the female Azzameen as time progressed, even though Aeron typically withheld her kind nature from those outside the family. The two were so close, in fact, that Garn was considered a member of the Azzameen family. Around the time of the Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY, Garn left the employment of Twin Sun Transport Services to enlist in the Alliance to Restore the Republic as a fighter pilot; while stationed aboard the Defiance, visits to the family and Aeron were limited. However, he managed to keep in touch with Aeron (as well as other members of the Azzameen household) by means of e-mail. He encouraged Ace to keep an eye on his older sister for him to make sure she stayed out of trouble. Olin also supplied the family with the coordinates to the Alliance Fleet; Aeron would use these, as well as her relationship to the rebel pilot, as a means to request sanctuary by the Alliance. The two would maintain contact throughout their different campaigns.

Behind the scenes
Aeron Azzameen was first featured in the PC game Star Wars: X-wing Alliance, where she acts as a major non-player character. At the beginning of the game's storyline, she guides the player through a series of instructional "missions" to help acquaint a player with the game's controls. Further into the story, she supplements the experience with family-oriented missions to either aid the recovery of the family business or assist the Alliance to Restore the Republic&mdash;and, at times, both at the same time. She would go unmentioned in any other official products until a passing reference was made in Olin Garn's entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia.

Aeron's character was voiced by Julianne Buescher. Buescher has also voiced characters in other Star Wars titles, including the main character, Rianna Saren, in Star Wars: Lethal Alliance and smaller roles in Star Wars Episode I: The Gungan Frontier and the Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace video game.
