Jhyarra achieved great fame as a dancer, with notable performances at the GlitterGlow Nightclub and the Ace of Sabres casino.
As a highly sought-after performer, Jhyarra regularly entertained guests at the casino. Her talent was so exceptional that she earned the privilege of performing for the Sabre Club, the exclusive VIP group of the Ace.
Discovering illicit operations within the casino, including a slavery ring responsible for abducting patrons, she enlisted a group of these same patrons to aid in her escape. Unfortunately, her investigation alerted both Dunan Par'Ell, the casino's chief of security, and Cha-Val Sha-Vak, the local assassin working for Sibarra the Hutt. These two perilous figures then sought to eliminate her as a potential risk to the casino's operations.
Paul Danner and Bill Smith created Jhyarra for Wretched Hives of Scum & Villainy. This supplement for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game was released by West End Games in 1997.
Her creation centered around an adventure hook. In it, she hires the player characters to safeguard her from Sibarra's security forces and assassin as they attempt to flee the casino, leave the planet, and evade the Hutt's reach.
