Alexandra Winger

"Hey, have you ever known me to take chances?"

- Alex Winger

Alexandra "Alex" Winger was a Force-sensitive female Human, who would eventually become a Jedi Knight. She was the adopted daughter of the Imperial Governor of Garos IV Tork Winger.

Her Force-sensitivity first manifested itself in dreams about future events - dreams which most of the time turned out to come true. She would often dream that she was climbing the Tahika Cliffs accompanied by a man with sandy brown hair and deep blue eyes - a man she had never met in real life. The man from her dreams later turned out to be Luke Skywalker. Another recurrent dreams was a vivid nightmare of how her biological parents died in an imperial attack on her original homeworld. She was also able to sense danger.

In her late teens, Alex was a resistance fighter on Garos IV. She would make use of the Imperial contacts she had as the daughter of an Imperial governor, and she would also actively participate in sabotage missions along with her friends in the resistance movement.

Extremely intelligent for a human being, she attended the University of Garos and was one of the best students the university had ever seen, excelling in virtually every course. Being a graful and beatiful young woman, many of her male fellow students were romanticaly interested in her. Among these were Lej Carner, whom she in turn found disgusting, and the clumsy but charming Trad Mays whom she was secretly infatuated with.

Later in her career, she was a Captain in the New Republic Defense Fleet. During the Battle of Yaga Minor at the end of the Galactic Civil War, she commanded the Webley.
