Winter Celchu

Winter Retrac Celchu was an operative of Alliance Intelligence who played a central role in a number of key Rebel Alliance and New Republic operations. She also served a vital role as Leia Organa's best friend, aide and confidante.

Biography
Winter was the only child of Sheltay Retrac and an unknown Alderaanian artist (possibly Ob Khaddar). Her parents both died when Winter was still young.

Ever since being adopted by Bail Organa, she had been Leia's best friend and companion. With a natural grace and poise, she was often mistaken for Princess Leia by visitors to Alderaan's court.

When the Rebellion began, Winter was heavily involved with many of the operations, partly because she was unassuming and non threatening but mainly because of her perfect memory. She participaded in several Rebel undercover missions with the code name Targeter.

Eventually, Winter became the caretaker of Leia Organa Solo's three children, the twins Jacen and Jaina, and their younger brother Anakin. She also became involved in a relationship with fellow Alderaanian, Colonel Tycho Celchu of Rogue Squadron, who she eventually married.

In her later years, Winter had taken to aiding former New Republic Admiral, Ackbar in his pursuit to bring safety and recovery to the aquatic world of Mon Calamari.

Winter's perfect memory made her a useful spy for the New Republic during the Galactic Civil War. Eventually, however, this ability would cause her some emotional difficulty.
