Anandra Milon

"Facial ID confirms you're Anandra Milon, age sixteen, 3204 resident scheduled for relocation."

- A Stormtrooper identifies Anandra Milon

Anandra Milon was a female Human, originally from the planet Alderaan, but living on the planet Coruscant at the time of her homeworld's destruction. After witnessing Stormtroopers beginning to arrest other Alderaanians, she fled her family's apartment on Level 3204 with her brother Santigo Milon. After fleeing the Galactic Empire for several days, she was offered work by a Pau'an criminal on Level 1997, but refused the work as it would require her to be separated from her brother. After being sighted by a Stormtrooper on Level 1997, she fled to Level 1996 where she waited to delay the trooper while Santigo escaped. The trooper arrived, and the pair briefly fought, before a Herglic criminal arrived and killed the Stormtrooper. The alien then told Anandra she could find help on Level 1782. After she found Santigo again, they made their way to 1782 where they discovered a camp of fugitives from the Empire who welcomed the pair into their group.

- A Stormtrooper and Anandra talk about the destruction of Alderaan

The Human female Anandra Milon was a immigrant from Alderaan who lived on Level 3204 of the city-planet Coruscant during the reign of the Galactic Empire. As a child Anandra was sometimes looked after by her next door neighbour. She also lived through the Old Sector Riots and the relocation of the Mon Calamari that followed, although due to her age at the time she had no memory of the events. At one point in her childhood she secretly visited Level 1997; a shady district of Coruscant, with her school friends, where they took a Holocam picture before leaving. When she was sixteen, her homeworld was destroyed by the Empire, and Anandra witnessed the other residents of Level 3204, many of whom also hailed from Alderaan, begin to hold vigils for the lost. These vigils however, soon turned to riots as more information became available about the Empire's role in Alderaan's fate. This drew the attention of the Empire, and soon stormtroopers broke up the riots, killing Reffe, the neighbour of Anandara's uncle, as she watched. Once the troopers were gone Anandra's mother attempted to unsuccessfully reassure Anandra and her brother Santigo Milon that they were now safe and that their father would return home from his trade mission soon. A day after Reffe's death however, Stormtrooper began arresting Alderaanians in the streets of Level 3204. Anandra and her family remained in their apartment, where Anandra stopped Santigo watching the arrests from the windows while her mother cried. The next day Stormtroopers began going door to door to make arrests, but the Milon's next door neighbour informed Anandra that apparently second generation immigrants were being relocated instead of arrested. The Milon's then did not leave there house for the rest of the day, and their mother locked herself in her bedroom. Before the Stormtroopers arrived at their home, Santigo and Anandra hid in the bucket of a cleaning droid which Anandra suspected had been reprogrammed by their neighbour to visit the Milon house on a day not following its normal schedule. The droid spirited the pair away while their mother was arrested. Once they had escaped, the siblings made their way to Level 3108 to meet with an old family friend and their mother, but the friend refused to help them and their mother never arrived. After a run in with the Coruscant Underworld Police, they were redirected to Level 2142 to meet a smuggler who would transport them offworld, but didn't make it in time.

Four days after their transport had left Coruscant, the siblings were on Level 2142 where they spent four hours sleeping in an alley. The following day Anandra approached a stall named Hangra's Meat Shack where she asked the old man operating the grill about a delivery from Centax 3. The question was an attempt to make Anandra seem lost and confused, and the old man eventually took pity on her and provided her with some food. She then brought the food back to the ally where Santigo was waiting and the pair shared the haul. They then moved onto Level 1997, where they'd been told that they could find someone willing to aid them in escaping the Imperials. On Level 1997, Anandra brought Santigo with her to a cantina where they met with a Pau'an criminal and his Herglic partner, a species Anandra had never encountered before. The Pau'an was willing to take on Anandra as a delivery girl, but wouldn't take Santigo as he was only eight. The siblings then fled when a Stormtrooper and a member of the Coruscant Underworld Police entered the cantina. Anandra managed to get down to Level 1996 with Santigo, where she told her younger brother to separate from her. As he fled, she waited on a walkway above Level 1995 for her pursuers, and soon the Stormtrooper arrived and attempted to arrest her. At first pretending to surrender, Anandra managed to surprise the trooper and toss away his blaster at the cost of suffering several blows afterward. She then managed to remove the trooper's helmet, before he was lifted and thrown from the catwalk by the Herglic from the cantina, who had followed the trooper down. The criminal then revealed that Anandra might find shelter on Level 1782, before leaving. After reuniting with Santigo, Anandra followed her unlikely saviors advice and traveled to 1782, where she and her brother searched the junkyard filled level for nearly an hour. They then encountered a Mon Calamari, who they at first tried to rob before he showed them to a camp of other fugitives from the Empire. The occupants of the camp welcomed the two children and comforted Anandra when she began to cry, after which the sibling were fed and given somewhere to rest.

Personality and traits
"It's gone. Just like Alderaan. Get use to it."

- Anandra snaps at her brother when he asks for Starblossom

Prior to the destruction of Alderaan, Anandra had never considered the planet her home. After several days spent on the run, Anandra was exhausted and angry. When the man running Hangra's Meat Shack looked down at her with condescension she wanted to attack him until everything was better, and she latter snapped at her younger brother when he wished he had starblossom from Alderaan to eat. Afterwards she felt guilty for the outburst. She was willing to adjust to working as a delivery girl for the Pau'an criminal she met on Level 1997, but refused to be separated from her brother and turned down the offer. She later regretted her decision as she believed Santigo would have been tough enough to survive while she was working, and the job was their last offer of refugee.

When the pair were chased by a Stormtrooper, Anandra was willing to potential sacrifice herself to get her brother to safety, telling him to run while she waited to delay the trooper. Upon facing the Imperial she was surprised to find herself feeling giddy, and managed to outsmart him and disarm him. Upon meeting the Mon Calamari on Level 1782 she at first assumed he might attack them and tried to rob him, not listening to her brother when he tried to make her stand down. Upon being brought to the fugitive sanctuary she was overcome with emotion and broke down into tears at having found friends and safety. Anandra had brown hair and eyes and fair skin.
