History:

This is going to be a long one. /clears throat.

A long time ago in a movie franchise far, far away....

Leia was one half of the twins born to Padmè Amidala and Anakin Skywalker. Despite her mother dying at birth Leia has some small memory of the woman, possibly due to a force connection or possibly because of bad writing. Either way, Leia remembers her mother as a beautiful, sad but kind woman. Leia was separated from her twin brother Luke and was adopted into the royal house of Alderaan. Foster parents being Bail Organa and Breha Organa. Thus, Leia became a Princess.

Leia grew up knowing she was adopted but not knowing the true fate of her birth parents or even who they were. Ironically as Bail had been a friend of Padmè Amidala's as well as a colleague Leia grew up surrounded by people who had known her mother, most of them not realizing that she was related to their late friend.

She was a gifted child and learned to speak and walk before turning one. She also started show signs of having a connection to the force, something that almost brought her to the attention of the Empire. However with the help of an undercover Jedi, Bail was able to cover up the rumours of a child with remarkable reflexes as being only that, a rumour.

While growing up, Leia was a bit of a rebel and a tomboy. She once even cut her hair off to stop her aunts from forcing her to wear her hair up in elaborate displays. They made her wear a wig after that, until her hair grew back. Unlike learning manners or other "lady-like" behaviors, Leia excelled in learning diplomacy, government and languages. Her father Bail often took her off world so she would be able to see many other cultures other then her own.

Despite being taught by tutors Leia also went to school. She was expelled from Collegium for Young Ladies when she was seven for a number of things such as, staging a sit in when the school started serving bottled juice rather then freshly squeezed juice, playing the forbidden Republic anthem and reprogramming the school's mainframe to replace every mention of the Emperor with a curse. This was far from the only prank she pulled and at the age of thirteen she dropped a water balloon on Moff Tarkin's head because to her he represented everything that was wrong with the Empire.

She continued to be taught about politics and the things she would need to know to be a senator. When she was sixteen her father Bail had it arranged so that she would learn self defense and marksmanship as well as her other lessons. When she was eighteen she was elected into the senate and was presented to Emperor Palpatine by Bail. Unknown to Leia, since Lord Vader was also present she was seeing her birth father in passing for the first time.

As a senator Leia became an outspoken critic of the Empire and the way it was run. During this time she also began running assignments for the growing rebel alliance that her father Bail was a part of. Leia assisted in many missions during this time. It was during a mission to Ralltiir that Leia discovered a wounded rebel with important plans about the Death Star. It was also during this mission that she killed a local Moff in self-defense, making her an enemy of the Empire.

After getting involved with another long and complex story that ended in a shootout between rebel and imperial forces, Leia was tasked by her father Bail to go to Tatooine and find the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and finally, finally we have reached the first movie.

The mission met with a snag when Leia's ship was stopped and boarded by Imperial forces lead by Darth Vader who was searching for the stolen plans to the Death Star. Leia however was able to sneak the plans onto an R2 unit that she sent to Tatooine to look for Obi-Wan in her place. This left her on the ship and she was captured by Darth Vader and his forces.

Darth Vader took her to the Death Star where unlike most bring your daughter to work days, he spent the time torturing her for information on the plans. Despite him being a Sith Lord and using a torture droid, Leia was able to avoid giving him any information at all. Moff Tarkin, who was also present on the Death Star, had his own ideas on how to get Leia to talk. He brought the princess out and told her that if she did not name the location of the rebel base he would blow up her planet Alderaan with the Death Star's greatest weapon. Lying, Leia told him that they had a base on Dantooine.

Tarkin, possibly unfamiliar with the term "pr disaster" then proceed to blow up one of the most beloved planets in the entire galaxy to prove a point. That point probably wasn't supposed to be, the Empire can destroy your entire planet even if you're not doing anything so join the Rebellion, but it was the one most people took away from this. Also, if you're from Alderaan, lunch breaks in the Empires forces just became really awkward. Leia meanwhile was taken away to await execution because after destroying a persons home planet then why not.

The rest of the movies plot finally caught up with her as Luke, Han and Chewbacca came to her rescue. This involved garbage shoots and large jumps and monsters but the group somehow managed to make it. Obi-Wan however sacrificing himself as a distraction in a fight with Darth Vader while the rest of the group made it to the Millennium Falcon. Which Leia figured out was being tracked. However give the choices she instructed them to fly to Yavin 4, where the real rebel base was located.

Examining the plans to the Death Star a weak point was spotted, and a mission to destroy the Death Star, latter to be known as the Battle of Yavin, was started. With some aid from Han and Chewie, Luke was able to fire the shots needed to destroy the Death Star. Later on, Leia presided over a ceremony where they were given medals and places in the Alliance military.

And then some time passed that didn't make it into the movies. During this time she went on missions for the alliance, sometimes with Luke and Han. A lot of strange things happened, at one point Leia was killed and then resurrected after her heart was turned into a diamond. On another planet, Leia and Luke encountered Darth Vader and she briefly fought the later with her brothers lightsaber despite not knowing how to use it. Doing this she saved Luke's life and he soon saved hers, using a crystal to heal her from her injuries after losing the fight to Vader. To sum up the lost time, Leia went on missions, gathered funds and rallied support for the alliance.

It was after this period of time that the rebels moved their base to Hoth, an ice planet and a year later our next movie starts.

The base is discovered by the Empire and they are forced to relocate their base. Luke goes missing on patrol and is found by Han who had gone out looking for him. Leia kisses Luke to prove a point to Han about him not knowing women as well as he thinks. As this turns out to be her brother, the romance subplot with Luke becomes quite creepy looking back on it. Meanwhile in not incest land, the Empire starts to attack as the base is evacuated. Leia ends up barely escaping having stayed behind to keep order, but she ends up on the Millennium Falcon with Han, Chewie and 3CPO.

They escape Imperial forces by hiding in an asteroid field. Then because they have no luck, it turns out the cave they have landed in is the mouth a space slug. They barely avoid dying there and set off for the closest safe place they can think of, which turns out to be Bespin. On Cloud City, a place owned by Han's friend Lando Carlissian they are allowed to land. However this all turns out to be a trap by bounty hunter Boba Fett and Darth Vader and his forces are waiting for them. The group is then captured by Vader. Han is tortured and then put in Carbon freezing. Leia tells him she loves him before he is frozen, to which he replies he knows because he is like that.

Despite trying to warn Luke, Leia is lead off with Chewie before they can do anything to help. Lando however has a change of heart and helps them escape the city. Leia suddenly realizes that she can feel where Luke is, with her unknown until now connection to the force and is able to lead them to where an injured Luke is hanging from the bottom of the city.

And then we have another break for things that happened in between movies. Just like last time the events are varied and involves a lot of missions for the alliance and weird story lines. Like magical rocks that make you sick, Vader wanting the Alderaan royal jewels and Leia kneeing a prince who was trying to seduce her with pheromones.

Eventually they figure out where Han is and go to rescue him. Leia disguises herself as a bounty hunter to infiltrate the palace of Jabba the Hutt, bringing in Chewie as a bounty. She is caught rescuing Han however and is forced into a skimpy metal slave outfit and made to serve Jabba the Hutt as a slave girl, chained to his throne. She is by the Hutt's side when Luke is captured and after Luke kills the rancor monster is taken with them to the Sarlaac pit. While Luke escapes and in the chaos that follows Leia manages to kill Jabba with her chain.

The group escapes and they make their way to where the rebel forces have gathered. The new Death Star, because the last one worked out so well, is being built and the shield generator for it is on one of the moons of Endor. Leia, Han, Chewie and Luke form a group to go and disable the generator while the alliance waits to attack the Death Star.

On the moon, Luke and Leia are found by stormtroopers who try and warn the rest of the forces about them. Leia and Luke however chase after them on speeder bikes. Leia is able to shoot down one of them but is also shot and crashes in the forest. She is found by an Ewok who helps her take down a following stormtrooper and then takes her back to his village with him. The rest of the group is looking for her when they are captured by the Ewoks and taken to the city as well. 3CPO is able to stop the group from being killed by the Ewoks and soon the group is let out and brought together again.

During this time Luke tells Leia that they are related and that Darth Vader is their father. Leaving her to go confront Darth Vader, Leia is skeptical of Luke's assurance that he can find some good in their father still. While Luke goes, she Han, the droids and Chewie set out to complete their mission.

During this mission they are assisted by the Ewoks and despite being wounded and captured, they are able to complete their mission. The Death Star is blown up, the Emperor is killed, Luke survives and Leia tells Han she is related to Luke so he can stop being jealous of her brother.

And the celebration at the end is where Leia will be taken from.

Personality:

Taking after her mother, Leia is a clever and shrewd politician as well as a Princess. She becomes the youngest senator ever at the age of eighteen. She quickly became one of the most outspoken critics of the Emperor’s politics. Being part of the Rebellion, and being a senator in the Imperial Senate was an incredibly dangerous position to be in though and Leia had to be very careful to shield her actual goals from the Emperors eyes. She had to be very clever and secretive, something she can do quite well. She is a good actress, being able to mask her face and hide her real thoughts while she keeps up a calm and even self righteous demeanour, even facing such people as Darth Vader and Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin. She’s also a skilled tactician and was responsible for many of the Rebellions missions and plans.

Leia is an incredibly strong person. She fights for what she believes is right even when it means putting her life in danger. She is one of the major players in the Rebellion because she believes that things are wrong and need to be fixed and she isn't going to stand around when there’s something she can do about it. She is also very good at keeping calm, no matter what the situation. At one point she is captured and tortured by Darth Vader who, using his Sith powers and an interrogation droid tries to get her to say where the Rebels are hiding. Despite all this, she still manages to reveal nothing. Even after her homeworld is destroyed, she still remains even more determined to stop the Empire, and puts her loss aside to continue on with the Rebellion, knowing that it is the right thing to do.

Leia, unlike her brother or father, never searched out adventure and was more content to do her duty to her people. She was headstrong and something of a Tomboy when she was younger, but as she grew up, this just turned her into a very outspoken woman who still understood duty. While she does need to be serious a great deal of the time, when she doesn't she has a good sense of humour. Once quipping, “aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper?” when Luke dressed as a Stormtrooper comes into her cell. And while she is patient, she can lose her temper. She’s called Han Solo a fair many names and argues with him a few times when his pestering annoys her. She snaps at people when she’s angry, calling Han a “stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf-herder.”

Leia is also very kind. All that she does, she does for others, serving as a senator and her place in the Rebellion. Because of this she inspires loyalty in a great number of people. Another skill that serves her well as a politician. She cares about the people being oppressed by the Empire, and not just her own people either. She hates the way aliens are treated as less then human and has ever since she was a child. She also hates slavery and injustice, which is what she works against. She puts her duty before everything else, including her own personal life. She goes out of her way to help people whenever she can. Whether this is representing them as a politician, or fighting for their rights as a leader of the Rebellion.

Log Sample:

Comms Sample:

She wakes up in what appears to be a bacta tank, but try as she might she can't remember being put in one. Which doesn't speak well of why she's on a strange ship with numbers tattooed on her arm. She quickly locates the showers and follows the numbers on her arm to a locker where her clothes are.

The ones she last remembers wearing, which could be good sign or a bad one. There are people walking around here, some aliens she's never seen before. Some of them look as confused as she is, while others walk around chatting with each other as though this is perfectly normal. Perhaps to them it is. She listens into the conversations as she dresses, overhearing nothing that reveals why she's here.

She fully realizes this is no normal kidnapping when she discovers her blaster in the locker where her clothes had been. It isn't a good sign, as most people don't arm their kidnap victims, however it means she has at least one line of defense and that's better then nothing. She knows little about the ship, the people who brought her here and so far everything she's seen or overheard points to it not being by Imperial forces, which would have been her first guess.

She closes her locker and goes to find some people to ask questions she's not really sure she wants to know the answers to.

[The screen crackles to life, and Leia offers a smile.]

Hello, my name is Leia Organa and I'm rather new to this ship. I was wondering if anyone has kept any records of the strange things that seem to happen around here. Or if anyone has any information they'd be willing to share about the ship. Anything at all really. I'd like to be able to compile some notes.

Thank you.
