Allana Djo Solo



title: Allana Djo Solo

The daughter of Jacen Solo, the Jedi Knight who became Darth Caedus, and Tenel Ka Chume'Ta Djo, the Queen Mother ruling Hapes, was named Allana Djo Solo. Beyond her inherent connection to the Force, she was also related to prominent Jedi figures: the niece of Jaina Solo, a Jedi Master, and Anakin Solo, a Jedi Knight; the granddaughter of Leia and Han Solo, heroes of the Rebellion; the grand-niece of Luke Skywalker, the legendary Jedi Grand Master; and the great-granddaughter of Anakin Skywalker, the Sith Lord, and Padmé Amidala, the Senator of Naboo. Allana, as the Chume'da of the Hapes Consortium, was destined to succeed her mother on the Hapan throne. It was believed that she died in 41 ABY during the Battle of Uroro Station, as a result of the Moff Council's deployment of a nanokiller specifically designed to target the royal Hapan bloodline, to which Allana belonged.

However, in actuality, Tenel Ka, having received a Force-based warning from Darth Caedus about the Moff's scheme, arranged for Allana to be placed in the care of her grandparents, who adopted her under the alias "Amelia Solo," a war orphan. Tenel Ka's intention was to safeguard Allana while simultaneously enabling her to learn the ways of the Jedi.

Subsequently, figures such as Allana's great-uncle, Luke Skywalker, experienced a vision akin to one previously seen by Jacen Solo, depicting Allana as an older queen seated on a throne. The Lost Tribe of Sith, seeking galactic domination, perceived this potential "Jedi queen" as a threat. While the Sith and the dark side entity Abeloth uncovered Allana's true identity, they were ultimately defeated by the Jedi. Before commencing her Jedi training on Shedu Maad, Allana revealed her identity as Chume'da Allana Djo Solo during the Hapan celebration of Jagged Fel and Jaina Solo's wedding.

Biography

Early Life: Dark Nest Crisis and Swarm War (35 ABY–36 ABY)

Jacen Solo and Tenel Ka Djo, Allana's parents

Tenel Ka consented to Jacen's request to utilize a Hapan fleet in support of the Killiks during their battle against the Chiss, but only if he spent a night with her. This encounter resulted in Tenel Ka becoming pregnant with Allana.

Tenel Ka concealed her pregnancy for a year using the Force. A week after Allana's birth, an assassination attempt targeted her. Consequently, the couple decided to keep the identity of the baby's father a secret to protect her from Hapan nobles. Ben Skywalker, still joined to the Gorog nest, inadvertently learned of Allana's paternity; Jacen subsequently wiped all memories of Allana and the visit to Hapes from his mind.

Even during the Jedi convocation at Ossus, Jacen and Tenel Ka refrained from revealing Jacen's paternity to Han and Leia Solo, Allana's paternal grandparents. Leia suspected her son knew the father's identity but did not suspect Jacen. Luke Skywalker speculated that Tenel Ka's reluctance to discuss Allana indicated some form of blemish—a fate considered worse than death by the Hapans.

Involvement in the Second Galactic Civil War (40 ABY–41 ABY)

Attempts on Her Life

During the Second Galactic Civil War, both Allana and her mother were targeted for assassination. Initially, Jacen Solo intended to sacrifice them as part of his Sith training, but he later chose his parents instead. Subsequently, Corellian leaders plotted to remove Tenel Ka and her heir from the Hapan throne, aiming to install a pro-Corellian relative. Her paternal grandparents, unaware of their blood relation to Allana, were motivated to act due to their connection with Tenel Ka.

Young Chume'da Allana playing with Jacen, a Stuffed Tauntaun Toy

Allana served as Jacen's primary motivation, driven by a deeper love for her than for anyone else, including Tenel Ka. Following a near-successful assassination attempt on Allana and Tenel Ka by Aurra Sing, disguised as "Nashtah," Tenel Ka decided to leave Allana with her father on the Anakin Solo until it was safe for her to return to Hapes.

However, even with a dangerous battle raging over Hapes, Sing infiltrated the Star Destroyer and defeated Allana's security droid. Jacen's personal intervention saved Allana, preventing the assassin from reaching her despite sustaining injuries. Allana then incapacitated Sing with a personal defense drug. She was later reunited with her mother on Hapes, but remained hidden from the Skywalkers and Solos.

Jacen realized he cared more for Allana than Tenel Ka, constantly thinking of his daughter's well-being. After becoming co-Chief of State and leaving Coruscant, Jacen visited Allana to determine if they were meant to be his sacrifice. He gave Allana a stuffed tauntaun, which she named "Jacen," and then departed, ultimately killing Mara Skywalker and adopting the name Darth Caedus.

Kidnapping and Reunion

After Tenel Ka withdrew Hapan support from the Galactic Alliance in opposition to Caedus, he vowed to kill anyone who stood between him and his daughter, including Tenel Ka. Caedus kidnapped Allana to blackmail Tenel Ka into restoring Hapes' support to the GA. Allana was replaced by an orphan girl, Tika, who resembled her. Caedus told Allana that people were trying to kill her to prevent her from complaining about being taken from her mother. Tenel Ka had given Allana a secret phrase, which Caedus failed to provide, frightening her. Allana woke up from unconsciousness and told Caedus she hated him after hitting him with a pass out gas dart that Tenel Ka had given her.

Caedus then revealed to Allana that he was her father, calming her down, and she embraced him, saying that she loved him.

Tenel Ka sought help from Luke Skywalker, who agreed to rescue Allana from Caedus, leading a strike team to the Anakin Solo. Luke, Ben, and Saba Sebatyne distracted Caedus, while Han and Leia rescued Allana. While returning Allana to Hapes, Han and Leia finally discovered their blood relationship with Allana; they were her grandparents.

Caedus, enraged by the loss of his daughter, Force-choked Patra Tebut to death.

After the Jedi Order relocated their headquarters from Endor to Shedu Maad in the Transitory Mists, Leia noted that the proximity to Hapes would make visiting Allana easier.

Orchestrated Demise (41 ABY)

During the final stages of the war, Allana remained close to her mother as a security measure. When the Moff Council's nanokiller, designed to target those with Hapan royal blood, was released on the Dragon Queen, Tenel Ka's flagship, most of the crew, including Allana, were seemingly killed.

However, Allana's "death" was a ruse orchestrated by Tenel Ka to ensure her daughter's safety. She faked Allana's death, announcing it over the Holonet as a casualty of the nanokiller.

In reality, she entrusted Allana to her grandparents, Leia Organa Solo and Han Solo, and Allana began training at the Jedi Academy under the alias "Amelia," a war orphan. She was introduced under her alias to her aunt, Jaina Solo, after Jaina killed Allana's father in a lightsaber duel over Shedu Maad.

As a tribute to Allana's "death", the Moff Council, under new High Moff Jagged Fel founded the Imperial Mission, as suggested by Allana's grandfather, Han Solo.

Travels with the Solos (41 ABY–44 ABY)

Discovering the Millennium Falcon's History

Allana during her time as "Amelia" Solo.

In 43 ABY, Allana, curious and strong in the Force, found an old transponder on her grandfather's ship and went with her grandparents to discover the history of the Millennium Falcon. On Taris, during this trip, Allana was kidnapped but rescued by the Jedi Seff Hellin; she noticed similarities between Jacen and Seff in the Force.

A Voice on Kessel

Later that year, while Han and Leia were in Kessel's caverns to save Lando Calrissian's mining facility, C-3PO and R2-D2 were watching Allana. She convinced Threepio to let her outside, and she went to a tomb where she used the Force and heard a voice telling her that it could "feel her." The voice asked her who was there, begging her to respond and requesting her name. She later left the tomb and reunited with the droids.

Allana later accompanied her grandparents on a mission to halt the destruction of Kessel, and was present for an encounter with a Kessel energy spider.

Coruscant Livestock Exchange and Exhibition

The Solos went to the Coruscant Livestock Exchange and Exhibition, because Leia thought it would be good for Allana to have a pet. Jedi Knights Natua Wan and Radd Minker went along for security. Allana wanted a tauntaun, but Han denied her, stating the creature's unpleasant smell. Allana decided she wanted to go to the Dangerous Animal level, and her grandparents reluctantly agreed. While viewing animals such as Nexu and a rancor, Natua Wan succumbed to Force psychosis. Natua made her way to the control room, where she locked the doors to the exhibit and disabled the forcefields and corrals holding the animals in the complex. As Radd Minker cut a hole through the door, Han held Allana, and together, they managed to escape the madness.

Later that night, when the animals had been captured, and Natua Wan apprehended, Allana told Han and Leia that she had witnessed Leia killing a Nexu with a litter of cubs. Allana suggested that they adopt one of the cubs; otherwise, they would have no being to care for them. Her grandparents were once more reluctant, but they adopted a cub, which they named Anji.

Growing Troubles

Allana Solo

Shortly thereafter, Allana was left in the care of Bazel Warv while Han and Leia went to meet with Jedi Master Cilghal about the insane Jedi. This alarmed Cilghal, since one of the few patterns noticed in the insane Jedi was that they had all stayed at Shelter during the [Yuuzhan Vong invasion](/article/yuuzhan_vong_war], like Warv. Cilghal's fears were realized later that day, although Allana had already left his presence.

That night, the Solos and Anji were watching The Perre Needmo Newshour when the broadcast concerned the events occurring earlier that day, specifically the insanity of Warv and Yaqeel Saav'etu. Leia listened to the stories and the Solos' conversation, and reflected that she and Han should not try to shelter Allana, as she was the future Queen Mother of Hapes. She then had a vision of Allana on a white throne, mirroring the visions experienced by Darth Caedus and Luke Skywalker.

After receiving word of Luke and Ben Skywalker's experiences in the Maw, Leia and Han hurried to Dathomir to help them, reluctantly bringing Allana along. They ordered her to stay in the Falcon, watched over by C-3PO, R2-D2, Zekk, and Taryn Zel. Allana quickly got bored, and after Artoo disappeared, helped rescue him from the devious mechanic Monarg.

Shortly after they got back from Dathomir, Allana caught C-3PO behaving uncharacteristically, and discovered that he was helping Luke translate the Keshiri language spoken by the Sith that Luke was teamed up with. Allana needed significant comforting to assure her that Luke was not going to the dark side - or joining the Sith.

Training as a Jedi Youngling (44 ABY–)

Following the downfall of both the Lost Tribe of Sith and Abeloth, the revelation of Allana Djo Solo's true identity as Chume'da, the primary heir to the Hapan Throne, was made public during her aunt's wedding, Jaina Solo. Plans were then set in motion for the commencement of her Jedi training on Shedu Maad.

Han Solo mentioned Allana in connection with memories her grandmother had lost after she merged with the Force at the monolith.

Potential Future Paths

Allana and Anji

In 41 ABY, shortly before his demise, Darth Caedus foresaw a vision of his daughter Allana as a mature young woman, positioned amidst a diverse assembly of species, standing before a grand white throne, symbolizing the unification of the galaxy. This vision contrasted with his earlier experience at the Pool of Knowledge during his travels, where he witnessed the Dark Man upon the Throne of Balance, with Allana at his side. This earlier vision served as the impetus for Jacen's transformation into Caedus, leading him to abruptly end his travels, determined to alter the future he had seen. The vision of Allana on the white throne indicated that Caedus had succeeded in changing the future, but in doing so, he inadvertently unleashed Abeloth, the Bringer of Chaos.

Two years later, Leia Organa Solo experienced a similar vision, depicting the young girl standing before a mix of species, who looked to her for guidance and peace. In Leia's vision, Allana was also standing beside a large white throne, but no one was standing beside her.

In 43.5 ABY, Luke Skywalker had a similar vision to those of his sister and nephew, only this time Allana was surrounded by what looked to be her friends, in front of a white throne. When Ben looked into the Pool of Knowledge, he saw that he was among the friends who surrounded her. However, when the Sith High Lord Sarasu Taalon also looked into the Pool of Knowledge, he was very displeased to see a Jedi queen, whom he did not know was a relative of the Skywalkers, because he believed that if a Jedi queen rose to power, the Sith could not take over the galaxy. After Abeloth was defeated, Jacen revealed that the Dark Man on the throne with Allana standing at his side was the reason for his turn.

Force Abilities and Skills

As the offspring of Jacen Solo and Tenel Ka Djo, and the great-grandchild of Anakin Skywalker, recognized as the Chosen One, Allana possessed a remarkable connection to the Force and demonstrated resilience in the face of danger. Her father imparted the power of Force stealth to her at a young age for her protection, and she exhibited the ability to heal herself rapidly, a trait noted by her grandfather as being similar to her mother. Allana displayed skills in Precognition and the Jedi Mind trick, and employed Force bellow to stun an attacker and escape. Allana also demonstrated a natural affinity for Animal friendship like her father in her relationship with her pet Nexu and received a Force vision of the Barabel nest being uncovered by the Lost Tribe of Sith on Coruscant.

When upset, she could emanate the dark side against perceived threats. She also employed the power of Force flight.

She was a skilled markswoman and her father believed, should she have fallen to the dark side, she would have been such a powerful servant to Darth Krayt that he would have achieved lasting victory.

Behind the scenes

According to Troy Denning (a.k.a. TailOne), in his official thread on TheForce.net forums, Allana was named after the founder of the Force-sensitive Witches of Dathomir, Allya, and the brother of Jacen Solo, Anakin Solo (All + Ana = Allana). She was not named in The Unseen Queen because Tenel Ka wanted Jacen to have a part in choosing her name.
