Ia, a Human female police officer from Coruscant, served as a lieutenant within the Coruscant Security Force's Traffic Division. Her home planet was Coruscant, and she operated under the jurisdiction of the CSF.
Possessing a no-nonsense demeanor, Ia was a Human female of middle age, characterized by her husky, monotonic voice and white hair. She approached her duties with utmost seriousness, patrolling the aerial lanes in her armored swoop, designated CS-117, and routinely incarcerating discourteous traffic offenders. Her rigid approach led her to regard Nibber Swoo, a Rybet air taxi pilot, as her primary professional adversary.
