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 was the eldest child of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo, and was named after her paternal grandmother. She had two brothers, Jacen and Anakin. Like her father and maternal grandfather, Jaina was a talented mechanic and pilot from a young age.

Childhood (5 ABY–22 ABY)


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 Organa Solo and Han Solo 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 largely raised by their father, Winter, Chewbacca and C-3PO. As Leia was then Minister of State of the New Republic, she barely had enough time to devote to family, though she made every possible effort. Jaina would begin to notice Leia's absence from her family and grew to resent her. She and her twin brother had many (mis)adventures in the city planet. On one occasion, they got seperated from Chewbacca and C-3PO and became lost in the underworld of New Republic City but were quickly rescued and returned to their mother and father. 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, a five-year old Jaina and her sibblings were kidnapped by Lord Hethrir, the Imperial Procurator of Justice, who attempted to use them as part of a fiendish plot to take advantage of their Force powers. During their imprisonment at Hethrir's mobile Worldcraft, she and Jacen were kept in individual cells and were kept under the supervision of older children known as Proctors and Helpers. Meanwhile, Hethrir attempted to sacrifice their younger brother Anakin to a mysterious alien known as Waru at Crseih Station. She and her twin also met the female Chironian Lusa. Later, Jaina managed to free all the prisoners including her brother and trap the Head Proctor himself in a cell.Jacen then used his Force powers to calm Hethrir's giant guardian sand dragon. All of the captive children then set off across the surface of the worldcraft on the sand dragon's broad back. Soon, their mother arrived on her star yacht Alderaan and then loaded all the children aboard the ship before leaving for Crseih Station to rescue Anakin Solo. In the end, Waru destroyed Hethrir before vanishing from the known galaxy following a confrontation with Luke Skywalker, Han and Leia Solo.

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 First Corellian Insurrection of 18 ABY, 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 (22 ABY–25 ABY)
"That's not right. The dark side doesn't make you any stronger. It's faster, easier, more seductive. It's also more tenacious. Just as the light side brings freedom, the dark side brings only bondage. Once you enslave yourself to the dark side of the Force, you may never escape."

- Jaina Solo

By the time she was thirteen years old in 22 ABY, 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. By the time she was fourteen, she was already a capable pilot.

Shadow Academy
In 23 ABY, during 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. After kidnapping Jaina and Jacen, Qorl forced them 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. At the Shadow Academy, all three captives were imprisoned in tiny cells.

In one training exercise, Brakiss pitted an unknowing Jaina against her brother by concealing each of them with hologram devices that made them think that the other was Darth Vader. In another exercise, she and Jacen were injured when hardballs, rocks and knives were thrown at them. After they survived this exercise, Brakiss announced to them that he had been so pleased with their potential that he had decided to kidnap more Jedi trainees. Luckily for Jaina, she was rescued by her brother Jacen, who had used a stolen Corusca gem to get out of his cell. Exploiting Lowbacca's computer expertise, they sabotaged the Shadow Academy's security systems and attempted to flee just as Luke Skywalker and Tenel Ka arrived. However, they were blocked by Brakiss and Tamith Kai. During a confrontation, Luke defeated his former student while Tenel Ka injured Tamith Kai's knee, defeating her temporarily. They then escaped the Academy in the stolen Imperial ship Shadow Chaser. The Shadow Academy managed to escape into hyperspace.

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.

Back at the Jedi Academy, Jaina and her friends had progressed far enough to be tasked with building their first lightsabers. Like her uncle had done years earlier, Jaina created a synthetic crystal for her lightsaber, which had a purple blade. Unfortunately, during lightsaber training, Tenel Ka lost her left arm when Jacen accidentally sliced it off.

Following that, Tenel Ka returned to her homeworld of Hapes to recover. She refused to be fitted with a prosthetic arm. Later on Hapes, Tenel Ka and her companions help defeat a revolution to overthrow Tenel Ka's grandmother Ta'a Chume.

Later, the Jedi companions travelled to Kashyyyk, the homeworld of Chewbacca where his younger sister Sirrakuk was about to undergo a Wookiee ritual. Since the ritual was dangerous, Lowie wanted to assist his sibling. Unfortunately, a Second Imperium strike force led by Zekk himself attacked the city of Thikkiiana, a major exporter of computer technology. The four Jedi trainees defeated most of the Imperium soldiers. During the confrontation, his sister Jaina confronted their former friend Zekk in the dangerous lower levels of the world-spanning jungle. However, Zekk did not have it in him to harm his former friends and instead warned them to stay away from the Imperium's next target: the Jedi Praxeum itself!

In response, the four Jedi raced back to the Jedi Praxeum and alerted the Jedi there. Sure enough, the Shadow Academy and a fleet of reclaimed Imperial warships appeared. Legions of Stormtroopers and Dark Jedi were then unleashed, thus starting the battle. The twins, 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
Following the defeat of the Second Imperium, the Solo twins helped rebuild the Academy and also continued their Jedi training. While the reformed Zekk recovered from his injuries, he was harassed by nightmares as a result of his involvement with the Dark Jedi. As a result, Zekk refused to use the Force again and left the Academy on Peckhum's freighter Lightning Rod to become a bounty hunter.

However, trouble would soon come when Raynar Thul received word that his father Bornan Thul - a wealthy merchant and shipping baron - had disappeared while en route to an important trade conference with Nolaa Tarkona, the Twi'lek leader of the Diversity Alliance, a fanatical all-alien group which sought to punish Humans for the cruelty inflicted by the humanocentric Galactic Empire. Noola Tarkona was the sister of Oola, Jabba the Hutt's murdered dancer slave. Since she was a Twi'lek, the organization was based on the species's homeworld of Ryloth. When Nolaa learnt that Bornan had disappeared, she placed a huge bounty on him, and not to forget the mysterious cargo he was hiding.

Jaina and Jacen also traveled to the Alderaan system to search through the asteroid field that had once been Alderaan. The twins landed on a barren asteroid and secured a shard from what used to be the plane's core. However, they were ambushed by Ailyn Vel, disguised as the infamous bounty hunter Boba Fett. Luckily for them, Zekk came to the rescue and drove the Fett impersonator away. Despite having rescued them, Zekk refused to return with them to the Academy though he decided to search for Bornan Thul later.

During their hunt for Bornan Thul, the Solo twins would be joined by Raynar Thul, Tenel Ka and Lowbacca. They searched his last known locations stretching ancient ruined worlds to the droid foundry world of Mechis III. Meanwhile, Nolaa Tarkona went on a crusade to whip up support among the alien species of the galaxy particularly the Chromans of Chroma Zed. Things when bad for the Jedi when Lowbacca misguidedly joined the Diversity Alliance under the influence of fellow Wookiee Raaba and travelled to their headquarters of Ryloth to learn more about them.

Meanwhile, Zekk rescued Bornan from bounty hunters and learnt the reason he had disappeared. Bornan had stumbled upon the location of a top-secret Imperial plague warehouse on an uncharted asteroid in the Deep Core. There was hidden within it a supply of deadly diseases created by General Evir Derricote almost two decades ago. Though the Galactic Empire had been defeated, this plague warehouse still remained with its supplies of deadly diseases. Bornan also revealed that Boba Fett (actually Ailyn Vel) had sliced into his ship's navicomputer and gotten ahold of the coordinates of the plague warehouse. Having learnt about it, Nolaa Tarkona wished to unleash a plague against all Humans.

Feeling that Lowbacca only knew the public face of the Diversity Alliance, the Solo twins along with Raynar and Tenel Ka travelled to Ryloth only to get arrested by the local authorities and put to work in the dangerous ryll mines of Ryloth. However, Lowbacca soon learnt what had befallen of his Human companions through Raaba. The enraged Wookiee turned against the Diversity Alliance and helped them escape the harsh terrain of the planet and zealous Diversity Alliance troops. The Jedi also discovered that the Diversity Alliance was stockpiling weapons for its war against Humans. They were also rescued by Zekk, Luke Skywalker and Lusa.

Back at the New Republic Senate on Coruscant, Luke requested that an inspection team be sent to Ryloth to investigate reports of Diversity Alliance aggression. After recording an encrypted message to his wife explaining their plan, Bornan, Raynar, Zekk, Jacen and Jaina Solo, Tenel Ka, and Lowbacca gathered up some explosives and went to the warehouse with the intent to destroy it. They were almost finished wiring when Diversity Alliance ships showed up. In the ensuing confrontation with Tarkona in the warehouse, some of the plague canisters were busted open, including the Human killing one. Bornan sacrificed himself so the plague would not spread, and told Raynar to get himself and his friends off the asteroid.

Meanwhile in space, a New Republic fleet under Han Solo defeated the Diversity Alliance fleet. However, Nolaa Tarkona managed to escape though she would later die on a distant asteroid from a Twi'lek -specific disease. Meanwhile on Ryloth, fighting took place when the New Republic inspection team discovered stockpiles of weapons. However, the fighting was stopped by the Twi'lek Kur whom convinced the Alliance soldiers that they had been misguided and that both Humans and Aliens should work together.

This ended the Diversity Alliance, thus removing a threat to the New Jedi Order and the New Republic. Following that, Zekk also joined the Jedi Praxeum.

Black Sun


Following that, Jaina and Jacen went on a trip with their father Han and brother Anakin to Ord Mantell to watch the Blockade Runners Derby. Appearing at the last moment, Zekk, along with Tenel Ka and Lowbacca, won the race. However, they encountered Czethros, a bounty hunter whom had hunted Han Solo years ago though he now claimed to be an "honest" businessman. Later at a hangar bay, they were ambushed by several Chameleon creatures though they were rescued by Anja Gallandro, a young woman who wielded a lightsaber but was not a Jedi. Instead, Anja relied on doses of spice to enhance her senses.

Anja had blamed Han Solo for killing her father, but Solo denied it because her father died in a trap while finding treasure. However, Anja was actually an undercover agent for Czethros, whom actually was a leader of Black Sun. The infamous galactic-wide crime sydincate had been keeping a low profile for years ever since the death of Prince Xizor during a skirmish on Coruscant in 3 ABY. However, they had been attempting to gain power over the New Republic by planting cells in places of power including political, economic and military. Czethros controlled Anja by keeping her addicted to spice.

Han managed to convince Anja that he was good by stopping a 25 year-long civil war on her backwater homeworld of Anobis. There, Solo met with the two rival factions and brokered a truce between them. This made Anja wonder whether her hatred for Solo had been misplaced and she agreed to join the Solo twins and their companions at the Jedi Praxeum to discover her abilities.

Later, Lando Calrissian invited the twins and their friends to Cloud City where he wanted them to be the first to try out the new SkyCenter Galleria amusement park which he had invested in through the use of repurchased interests from the spice mining world of Kessel and shares from a mining operation on Varn. However, things went bad when a business associate of Calrissian named Cojahn was found dead. Worse, the Jedi discovered whom Czethros actually was and his plot for galactic domination. Jacen, Tenel Ka, and Lowie were also ambushed by several Ugnaught Black Sun mercenaries in the lower levels of Cloud City.

As a result, Czethros was targeted by the New Republic and arrests for him were issued on many worlds. However, he had managed to evade capture and went underground. Unfortunately for Anja, she had realized that without Czethros that there would be no supplier for the spice that fueled her addiction. Anja then stole Zekk's ship Lightning Rod and travelled to the ocean world of Dac where she hoped to retrieve a hidden stash of spice beneath the planet's frozen ice cap.

Meanwhile on Kessel, Calrissian's longtime Sullustan mate Nien Nunb had been nearly killed during a suspicious accident in the carbon-freezing sections of the processing facility. Black Sun had planted cells even there and the Sullustan knew he was in danger. Worse for him, his workers were turning agaisnt him. Jaina and Lowbacca went to Kessel to help protect Nieun Nunb while her brother Jacen, Tenel Ka and Zekk pursued Anja to Dac. On Dac, at the resort city of Crystal Reef, Jacen confronted Anja while she tried to lease a mini-sub to hunt for the hidden spice stash. He managed to help Anja confront her spice addiction and and persuaded her to accept her father's real fate. They also succeeded in destroying Czethros's stash of spice on Dac.

Back on Kessel, Czethros and an army of Black Sun mercenaries took control of the planet and captured Nien Nunb though Jaina and Lowbacca managed to escape. They also discovered that Black Sun had been planting cells in positions of power throughout the New Republic and that they had contacts on a variety of worlds. From Kessel, Czethros hoped to send a signal that would activate these cells. However, Jaina and Lowbacca sabotaged his operations by destroying the transmitter before Czethros could broadcast his signal. They also freed the prisoners and helped defeat the Black Sun mercenaries. Rather than allow himself to be captured, Czethros threw himself into a vat of carbonite and was flash-frozen instantly. However, he was retrieved and placed in New Republic custody. Chief of State Leia Organa Solo would supervise his unthawing and interrogation. As a result, the names of Black Sun moles in strategic positions of power were discovered, defeating the crime syndicate.

Following this ordeal, Jaina along with several other trainees including her brother Jacen, their younger brother Anakin, Tenel Ka, Lowbacca and Zekk were promoted to apprentice Jedi Knights during a ceremony at the Jedi Praxeum, and became the apprentice of her Aunt Mara, though she also found herself attracted to Kyp Durron's more aggressive faction. While Jaina learned much from these experiences, they could hardly prepare her for the carnage that would follow shortly thereafter.

Yuuzhan Vong War (25 ABY–30 ABY)
"Nineteen. And she has more kills than the three of us put together at the same age."

- Tycho Celchu



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."

During the Battle of Dantooine, Jaina helped the refugees escape offworld before the Vong could take Dantooine.

During the Battle of Ithor, while engaging the Yuuzhan Vong fleet, she lost her wingmate Anni Capstan. This hurt her terribly. She also 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 admired Jagged Fel for his piloting skills and icy cool demeanor.

However, the battle was a terrible loss for the New Republic since the Yuuzhan Vong unleashed a biological weapon that decimated the world-spanning jungle even after their leader Shedao Shai had been slain during a duel with Jedi Knight Corran Horn. This contributed much to the Anti-Jediism of the galactic public.

In 26 ABY, during the Battle of Kalarba, Lieutenant Jaina, along with Rogue Squadron and their Chiss allies, engaged the Yuuzhan Vong fleet at Kalarba. The battle was going bad for the New Republic since the extragalactic aliens had deployed their Yo'gand's Core tactic which involved using a Dovin basal to cause Kalarba and its moon of Hosk Station to collide.

The Vong then assaulted the flagship of the New Republic fleet, the Bothan Assault Cruiser Champion. Jaina attempted to defend the ship though the enemy succeeded in blowing it up. The explosion destroyed Jaina Solo's X-wing though she managed to eject herself into space and was later retrieved. Unfortunately for her, she suffered injuries that temporarily blinded her. Jaina then received a medical leave transfer to Duro, which had been selected as an ideal SELCORE haven for refugees from conquered worlds.

Having recovered, she and Mara Jade Skywalker&mdash;with Skywalker disguised as Baroness Muehling of Kuat and Jaina as her servant&mdash;discovered that the Duros scientist Dassid Cree'Ar&mdash;whom was involved with the restoration efforts of the planet&mdash;was actually the infamous Yuuzhan Vong Nom Anor. However it came too late since Cree-Ar had sabotaged several of the operations including releasing naotebe winglings that destroyed a refugee encampment. Worse, Duro was attacked by the Vong whom used dovin basals to bring down the orbital cities and unleashed bioengineered monstrosities inluding Tu-Scart and Sgauru (the pair known as the "Biter and Beater") and the serpentine Ychna. Despite the efforts of the Jedi and the New Republic, Duro fell and became the first Core World to be conquered.

Brush with the dark side
"Then so will we. We're here to destroy the queen, not take revenge." "Right. Revenge comes later."

- Anakin and Jaina Solo

In 27 ABY, the Yuuzhan Vong created the Voxyn which hunted Force-sensitive beings. Several Jedi fell to them including her brother's old Melodie classmate Lyric and the Twi'lek Numa Rar. This led to the Mission to Myrkr. Despite having infiltrated the voxyn-cloning facility Baanu Raas which orbited Myrkr and killed many Yuuzhan Vong and Voxyn, several Jedi were slain including Anakin. Worse, Jacen presumably killed though he was actually captured.



In retaliation she rashly attacked a Yuuzhan Vong mortuary and recovered Anakin's body. Jaina then stole an enemy vessel, Ksstarr. With Coruscant captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, she led the remnants of the Jedi strike force to the Hapes Cluster. On Hapes, the entire Solo family and their friends gathered for the funeral of Anakin. Following that, 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.

Following the loss of Coruscant, the remnants of the New Republic Advisory Council gathered at Borleias in 27 ABY. However, the Yuuzhan Vong also attacked the planet. On one occasion, the New Republic used the "Starlancer" to fire a laser beam through hyperspace on Warmaster Tsavong Lah's flagship as part of a show of light. During this time, Jaina was given command of an elite fighter unit known as Twin Suns Squadron originally founded by Luke Skywalker. Eventually, the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the planet unleashing swarms of Coralskippers and tens of Rakamats. Despite the best efforts of the New Republic to hold the world including using the Super Star Destroyer Lusankya to orbitally bombard the planet, Borleias was conquered by the Yuuzhan Vong.

Sword of the Jedi
"Even being a Jedi is something where you look for more. At first you acted as if Jedi was synonymous with hero. It isn't. Being a hero isn't what all these folks are here to do. They're here to do their jobs."

- Jaina Solo

This forced the New Republic to flee to the ocean world of Dac (also known as Mon Calamari) in the Outer Rim. During the Galactic Civil War, the planet had been an important member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, the Alliance of Free Planets and the New Republic. It was on the planet, that she was reunited with her brother Jacen and the Fosh Vergere, a mysterious Old Republic Jedi and Yuuzhan Vong agent. In 28 ABY, Jaina participated during the assault on Ylesia which saw the capture of Peace Brigade leader Thrackan Sal-Solo. She also participated during the Battle of Ebaq 9 in the Deep Core. It was during the battle that the Vergere sacrificed her life to wipe out the Vong forces on the barren moon and that Jaina took on Tsavong Lah during a one-on-one duel and slew him.

Following the battle, Chief of State Cal Omas had the New Republic reorganized as the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, also known as the Galactic Alliance for short. Governmental changes between the New Republic and the Galactic Alliance included a new constitution, a stronger judicial branch, and a better system of checks and balances that curbed the power that had been almost exclusivly in the hands of the Senate. Jaina also achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and was assigned to escort her parents on diplomatic missions for the Galactic Alliance.



Later, she helped thwart a Vong invasion of Galantos and a Ssi-ruuvi attempt to retake Bakura and rename it Xwhee. She also helped in the defense of Esfandia. Following these, in 29 ABY, Jaina participated during the defense of Dac. The battle was a victory for the Galactic Alliance partly due to the death of a Yammosk on nearby Caluula. The Yammosk was used by the extragalactic aliens to coordinate their forces in combat. With the death of a Yammosk, the Yuuzhan Vong forces would be scattered.

Later it was discovered that it was the biological weapon Alpha Red had killed the Yammosk and also destroyed much of Caluula's biosphere. But the Yuuzhan Vong kept pressing their attack, even with the loss of the yammosk at Caluula. However, when the Yuuzhan Vong armada received word that Zonama Sekot had entered the Yuuzhan'tar system, formerly the Coruscant system and now the Vong capital. Realizing that Yuuzhan'tar came first, Warmaster Nas Choka ordered the fleet to withdraw.

During the Liberation of Coruscant, Jaina and her brother Jacen along with Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker began an assault on the Citadel, which was the palace of Supreme Overlord Shimrra. The Jedi and the Galactic Alliance received help from the "Jeedai"-worshipping Shamed Ones, whom were eager to overthrow their oppressors.

During the assault, Shimrra and his jester Onimi unleashed their elite Slayers on the Jedi though they emerged victorious over Shimrra. However, it was soon revealed that Onimi was the true ruler of the Yuuzhan Vong. He took Jaina captive, thinking she was the Trickster though her brother came to her aid and slew Onimi. This ended the Yuuzhan Vong War. Later, the Galactic Alliance signed a peace treaty with the Yuuzhan Vong.

Dark Nest Crisis (35 ABY–36 ABY)
"I should never had made the mistake of thinking Jedi had honor."

- Jagged Fel to Jaina Solo

Five years 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. The Swarm War had begun.

When Luke Skywalker called all the Jedi to the Conclave on Ossus, Jaina and Zekk ignored the call and remained in the Unknown Regions to help the Killiks win the war against the Chiss on Tenupe, where Jaina commanded the Killik forces in ground combat against the Chiss. In the last stages of the battle Jaina and Zekk were forced to work with the Jedi traitor Alema Rar to destroy the Chiss' weapon against the Killiks, parasite bombs. During this stage of the Battle of Tenupe Jaina and Zekk engaged Jag in a dogfight where she confessed to Jag that she still did and would always love him and pleaded for him to eject before she shot him down. This gave Jag the chance to escape, only to later be shot down by the Millennium Falcon.

At the end of the Swarm War, Zekk and Jaina were rescued by the Millennium Falcon from the shelter they were holed up in on Tenupe. At the end of the Swarm War, both of them were recovering in the infirmary, and were quite worried about Jagged Fel's fate. They eventually became unjoined, but remained in a relationship as of 40 ABY.

Legacy of the Force (40 ABY–)
At the start of the Second Corellian Insurrection, Jaina was assigned to capture Prime Minister Aidel Saxan along with a Jedi team consisting of Zekk, Kolir Hu'lya, and Thann Mithric but failed because her target was a decoy. The failure resulted in the injury of Zekk, although it was not serious. Jaina and Zekk were present at the Battle of Tralus, where she fought for the Alliance against Corellian forces. Unknowingly she was fighting against both of her parents, and while this was going on, her twin brother would become her greatest enemy: a Sith.

Behind the scenes
In Betrayal, Leia and Han discuss Jaina's taste for taller men, which may possibly hint a tall love interest for Jaina in the Legacy Era. In a discussion between Luke, Mara, Leia, and Han, it becomes clear in the adults's perspectives that there is more to the relationship between Jaina and Zekk than "just friends" &mdash; which Han is not pleased by.
