Jaina Solo Fel

"I name you Sword of the Jedi... Yours is a restless life, and never shall you know peace, though you shall be blessed for the peace you bring to others."

- Luke Skywalker

Jaina Solo II (Born 9 ABY) was the elder of the Solo twins by five minutes, and was named after her paternal grandmother. She had two brothers, Jacen and Anakin, both younger than herself.

Childhood
Jaina and her twin brother Jacen were born on Coruscant during the final days of Grand Admiral Thrawn's attempt to retake the Galactic Core. During these times of strife, Leia and Han sequestered their children on various safeworlds including New Alderaan and Anoth, keeping them out of harm's way. After a number of attempts to capture the Solo children, the parents eventually decided to keep the family together.

The twins returned to Coruscant at the age of three and were raised by Winter and C-3PO. As Leia was then Chief of State of the New Republic, she barely had enough time to devote to family, though she made every possible effort. Jaina and her twin brother had many (mis)adventures in the city planet. On one occasion, they became lost in the underworld of New Republic City with C-3PO but were quickly rescued and returned to their mother. Jaina even once helped her brother defend their unconscious uncle Luke from the dark spirit of Exar Kun, as they were the only people able to see the long-dead Sith Lord that was attacking the Jedi Master.

During the Empire Reborn movement of 14 ABY, Jaina was kidnapped by Lord Hethrir, the Imperial Procurator of Justice, and used along with her siblings in a fiendish plot to take advantage of their Force powers. Eventually, Luke Skywalker and Han and Leia Solo succeeded in rescuing them. As Jaina grew older, she began to notice Leia's distance more and more, a distance she would later come to resent. The headstrong girl showed a mechanical aptitude that made her father proud. At nine years of age, she was already flying the Millennium Falcon, and knew enough to help her father with simple repairs.

During the Corellian Crisis, she and her siblings were captured by Thrackan Sal-Solo, her father's cousin and leader of the Human League. However they managed to escape. This time, Jaina led the escape and managed to free herself and her siblings from their cells before Thracken could barter with his hostages.

Jedi training
By the time she was 14 years old, she was already a capable pilot. She attended her Uncle Luke Skywalker's Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4, honing her impressive talents in the Force, and making new and long-lasting friends, such as Lowbacca, Tenel Ka and Zekk.

Shadow Academy
In their exploration of the jungle near Luke's Jedi Praxeum, Jacen and Jaina discovered a crashed TIE Fighter from the Battle of Yavin. Jaina decided to fix the ship and install a hyperdrive which had been given to her as a gift by her father, a new machine to tinker with. She began working on the damaged fighter with help from Jacen, Lowbacca, and Tenel Ka. Unfortunately, the TIE's original pilot, Qorl, was still alive and had lived the last twenty-three years in Yavin 4's jungles. Kidnapping Jaina, Qorl forced her and Jacen to finish repairing his ship so he could escape his exile at long last. The twins eventually escaped, but so did Qorl, leaving the jungle moon behind and searching for any remnants of the Empire.

Qorl would discover the Shadow Academy, a training ground for Dark Jedi under the command of one of Luke Skywalker's fallen students, Brakiss and the Nightsister Tamith Kai. The Shadow Academy was aligned with the Second Imperium, an insurgency group which rejected the peace treaty between the Imperial Remnant and the New Republic in 19 ABY. Later, agents of the Shadow Academy succeeded in kidnapping Jaina, Jacen and Lowbacca during a raid on the GemDiver Station in Yavin. However, she, Jacen, and Lowbacca proved resistant to the efforts of Brakiss and Tamith Kai to indoctrinate them and were later rescued by Luke Skywalker and Tenel Ka.

The friends returned to Coruscant for a short vacation, and were reunited with their childhood friend, Zekk. They were happy to see the young man, but the boy was soon recruited by the Shadow Academy, who discovered before the twins did that the boy had Force potential. Zekk would be forced to fight Jacen and Jaina several times, and Jaina was the most worried about the young man she considered more than just a friend. She constantly tried to bring Zekk to the light side, but was initially unable to succeed. Jaina and her friends finally progressed far enough to be tasked with building their first lightsabers.

Not long afterward, the Jedi trainees and the Shadow Academy would have their final confrontation during the Battle of the Jedi Praxeum. Jaina and Jacen, with the help of their peers at the Jedi Academy, Luke, and Zekk, would bring down the Shadow Academy and the Second Imperium forever.

Diversity Alliance
Jacen and Jaina continued their Jedi training on Yavin 4, meeting new friends like Raynar Thul. They could not convince Zekk to stay at the academy with them, but Jacen and Jaina remained friends with him. With his and Raynar's help, they ran into their first discovery of a new threat to the New Republic, the Diversity Alliance.

The Diversity Alliance was an all-alien group which sought to punish Humans for the cruelty inflicted by the humanocentric Galactic Empire. They were led by a Twi'lek Nolaa Tarkona, the sister of Oola, Jabba the Hutt's murdered dancer slave. Since she was a Twi'lek, the organization was based of Ryloth. She was very unattractive for a Twi'lek female, with only one lekku and sharpened teeth that she kept perfectly filed.

When Lowbacca misguidedly joined the Diversity Alliance, she along with Jacen, Raynar and Tenel Ka went to Ryloth to investigate only to be imprisoned. However, they were rescued by Lowie and evenutally managed to escape Ryloth.

Finally getting to the bottom of a plot they had suspected all along, the Jedi trainees caught up with Raynar's father Bornan Thul to race the Diversity Alliance fleet to an Imperial storehouse hidden in the Deep Core. There was hidden a supply of deadly diseases created by General Evir Derricote almost two decades ago. Tarkona wished to unleash a plague against humans and wipe them all out, but was stopped by Jaina and her fellow Jedi, as well as traitorous members of the Diversity Alliance. In the end, the plague was destroyed, and Tarkona herself eventually succumbed to one of the diseases on a faraway planet.

Black Sun
As Jacen and Jaina were getting older and becoming more experienced Jedi, they went on a trip with their father Han to Ord Mantell to watch a race, and ran into Czethros, a bounty hunter who had hunted Han Solo years ago. They were ambushed by Black Sun agents, but were rescued by Anja Gallandro, a young woman who wielded a lightsaber but was not a Jedi. Anja had blamed Han Solo for killing her father, but Solo denied it because her father died in a trap while finding treasure.

When Lando Calrissian invited the twins and their friends to Cloud City, they discovered Czethros was a leader of Black Sun, and was attempting to gain power over places of interest that could hopefully overcome the New Republic. Jacen, Tenel Ka, and Lowie were ambushed by several Black Sun mercenaries, and Jacen was almost killed.

On another adventure, Jaina attempted to help Kessel and capture Czethros while Jacen rushed to help Anja with her spice addiction and combat Black Sun. Eventually, Black Sun was defeated with the combined efforts of the Jedi Knights and the New Republic. Following this, Jaina apprenticed herself to Mara Jade Skywalker. The two bonded, and Jaina grew both as a Jedi, and as a pilot.

The Yuuzhan Vong War
Her skills behind the controls of an X-wing fighter earned her a position in the famous Rogue Squadron during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Flying as Rogue Eleven, Jaina went by the nickname "Sticks." Jaina fought tirelessly through campaigns at Borleias, Ithor, Obroa-skai and Ebaq 9, flying alongside Jag Fel. While at Ithor, Jaina met a fellow pilot named Jagged Fel, nephew of the famous pilot Wedge Antilles and an ally of the New Republic flying with a Chiss defense force. The young woman felt something stir within her, and she definitely admired Jagged Fel for his piloting skill and icy cool demeanor. She then became the leader of Twin Suns Squadron. She eventually achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and was assigned to escort her parents on diplomatic missions for the Galactic Alliance.

During a botched Jedi mission that claimed her brother Anakin Solo's life and saw Jacen presumably killed, Jaina stole a Yuuzhan Vong vessel, Ksstarr. With Coruscant captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, she led the remnants of the Jedi strike force to the Hapes Cluster. On Hapes, Jaina became embroiled in court intrigue, as the scheming former Queen Mother Ta'a Chume tried to orchestrate a marriage between her son, Prince Isolder, and Jaina, in a failed bid to replace the current Queen Mother Teneniel Djo. Jaina refused to betray Tenel Ka this way, and the old woman was arrested. During this time, Jaina came close to falling to the dark side, but barely managed to come back to the light, apprenticing herself to Kyp Durron.

By closely examining Ksstarr, Jaina realized a fundamental underpinning of Yuuzhan Vong spacefaring technology: bodies in space were recognized by their unique gravitic signature. She began exploring plans to use that knowledge against the Yuuzhan Vong. Her risky tests prove successful. Her deceptive tactics wreaked havoc with the enemy's ability to identify friends and foe, prompting her to rename the vessel Trickster. Jaina's reputation began to grow thanks to crafty disinformation spread by New Republic agents. The Yuuzhan Vong began to associate Jaina with their trickster goddess, something New Republic commanders wholeheartedly encouraged by referring to her as "Goddess," "Great One," and similar. At the Battle of Ebaq 9, Jaina killed Warmaster Tsavong Lah.

After the War
In last months of the war, Jaina helped recapture Coruscant. Not long later, she, along with her brother and a group of Jedi, returned to the Unknown Regions after being called by the Force. There they discovered that Raynar Thul had survived, and had been joined to a Killik hive. Jaina and Zekk also joined the Killiks and became Joiners &mdash; non-Killiks who had been absorbed into the Killik hive mind. Their actions during the Battle of Qoribu led them to be expelled from the Taat nest. A year later, Jaina and Zekk &mdash; still Joined with each other &mdash; were tricked by Jacen into attacking a Chiss base to cause a war between the Chiss and the Killiks. Jaina was furious, and vowed that she would never fly with Jacen again.Then in Swarm War Jaina and Zekk by then end do get un-joined
