Jenna, a Human woman of Corellian descent, hailed from the Outer Rim Territories where she and her father were among the initial settlers of a planet. On this planet, her father held the position of sheriff for their Corellian community, which resided within the fifteenth sector, but his life was tragically ended at the command of Bo-Dum, a Hutt. After the sheriff's demise, Bo-Dum and his associate Rarsk exerted control over Jenna and the other colonists, a situation that persisted until the smuggler Han Solo and his co-pilot Chewbacca intervened, liberating them from the Hutts' grasp. After the Hutts were defeated, Jenna and the remaining colonists sought refuge aboard Solo's starship, known as the Millennium Falcon.
