"Pava. Jessika Pava. Blue Three."

- Jessika Pava, to C-3PO

Jessika Pava, also known as Jess or Testor, was a human female who flew as a X-wing fighter pilot for the Resistance under the callsign of Blue Three. She served in a Resistance base and was an admirer of Luke Skywalker, the famed Jedi Knight who destroyed the first Death Star and helped defeat the Emperor, Darth Sidious, during the Galactic Civil War.

Serving the Resistance
A human female from Dandoran, Jessika Pava was a member of the Resistance during its conflict with the First Order, approximately thirty years after the Battle of Endor. She flew as a T-70 X-wing fighter pilot in Blue Squadron, operating under the callsign of Blue Three. She was an admirer of Luke Skywalker, the famed Jedi Knight who served in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War, and had heard stories of his time in the Rebellion, such as when he destroyed the Death Star during the Battle of Yavin.

While performing a maintenance assignment while serving at a Resistance base, Pava met C-3PO, a protocol droid who had been in the service of Skywalker and the Rebellion during the Galactic Civil War. Upon realizing that Threepio knew Skywalker, she asked him to tell her a story about Skywalker's adventures during the war. Threepio regaled her with a story of Skywalker's time on Devaron after the Battle of Yavin, where he trained in the Jedi Temple of Eedit. Her time talking to Threepio was cut short, once Pava was called to a meeting in the Resistance command center.

Battle of Starkiller Base
When the First Order targeted the Resistance base with the Starkiller, a planet-destroying superweapon, Pava, along with numerous Resistance pilots, engaged the First Order's forces in an attempt to destroy the weapon. After pilot Poe Dameron successfully crippled the weapon's thermal oscillator, destroying the Starkiller, Pava and the other surviving pilots returned to their base and celebrated.
