Karin Featherlight, a Twi'lek politician of the female persuasion, resided on the planet of Corellia throughout the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, she found herself in Coronet, the Corellian capital city, as she was actively engaged in an electoral campaign. It was during this period that Featherlight encountered an adventurer, sharing with him the information that her campaign team, while traversing the planet, had previously stumbled upon both the Drall Patriot's Cave and the Rogue CorSec Base.
In the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, Karin Featherlight existed as a non-player character. This massively multiplayer online roleplaying game was created by Sony Online Entertainment and brought to the public by LucasArts, before the game's servers were shut down on December 15, 2011. Featherlight's introduction to the game occurred with the arrival of the "Publish 5" update, which was launched on December 16, 2003.
