Rana Halion

Rana Halion is ruler of the Ieria, the largest neighbouring planet to Andara. She always tries to convince the Senate to have two representatives from the Andaran system. Andaran Senator Berm Tarturi suspects that she has a secret army and persuaded many other worlds to join her cause. But she was also the primary suspect in Gilliam Tarturi's kidnapping from the Leadership School. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Tyro Caladian keep an eye on her with her meeting with Sano Sauro.

Later, it is apparent that Halion was not responsible for Gilliam's kidnapping; he staged it himself. He planned to fire on the Ierian fleet so as to start a war between the two planets and implicate his father in his own kidnapping, which would confuse Ieria. When his Secret Squad was about to initiate the plan, Halion sent in battle droids to handle the situation, mainly because of security protocols. When there were Jedi in the area, she apologizes to them about the mess. Gilliam accuses her of taking him in an attempt to save his own reputation.
