History

Bhramzee was born in 21 BBY on Iridonia. Not much is known about her childhood, but it is known that she was raised to admire the discipline, which led her to eventually enrolling in the Imperial Academy on Carida to become a TIE Fighter Pilot. She graduated from the academy without honors in 3BBY.

From the Imperial Academy she was assigned to a TIE FIghter squadron onboard the Imperial Star Destroyer Motivator. Despite her average marks at the Academy, she excelled in starfighter combat and tactics. After losing her squadron commander in a friendly fire incident, she was selected to lead the squadron and promoted to the rank of Captain. In 1 ABY, Bhramzee was selected for the TIE Oppressor test pilot program, and was given access to virtually every advanced starfighter the Empire had to offer. Yet again she excelled, and was promoted to Leiutenant Commander for her outstanding performance. However her status as a non-Human female greatly hindered her chances of further promotion. Gossip among the test pilots about how she rose through the ranks so quickly took its toll on her integrity. The result of the gossip was a swift, extremely biased investigation of fraternization between Bhramzee and the test program commander. The investigation turned up no concrete evidence, but she was removed from the test program regardless. She was then transferred to the Imperial customs station in the Naboo system, to take command of a VT-49 Decimator.

Furious at her removal from the test program, she decided to defect to the Rebellion, and carry with her all the knowledge she acquired during the test program. Through contacts with the Rebel group on Naboo's moon of Rori, she persueded Alliance Admiral Burke to send starfighter squadrons to escort her and her ship to the Rebel base. Imperial commanders intercepted some of the tranmissions between the Rebel Alliance and Lt. Commander Murteik, and ordered the local TIE squadrons to intercept and destroy the Zabrak pilot. An intense battle ensued as Bhramzee piloted her Decimator, now renamed as the Defector towards Rori as Alliance pilots held back the Imperial forces. Ultimately, she successfully defected and was welcomed into the intelligence division on Rori. She conveyed her knowledge of advanced Imperial starfighters to the Rebels, ultimately negating any advantage that the new fighters would have had. For a time she led a training squadron (dubbed Mayhem Squadron) of various TIE starfighters to provide training to Rebel pilots on how to counter Imperial tactics.
