Arista Kabul was a young female Human from Otunia and the daughter of Lorn Kabul, who owned a mining operation. Despite being a crack shot and perfectly able to take care of herself, her father made her perpetually wear a tracking device around her ankle.
When Lorn was killed by his brother Seth Kabul who, conspiring with the Imperial warlord Moff Harsh, wanted to take over the mining operations, Arista joined forces with the strong and unusually noble Gamorrean Grissom and the technically-minded Jawa Tek who was a wanted man. Arista understood Jawaese.
Tek removed the tracking device such that Arista's uncle would not be able to track them down, and together the trio managed to sabotage the mining operation, ruining everything for her uncle and make it off-planet.
