Lakwii Varrscha was a Human female who served as an officer within the Imperial Navy. A tall and muscular woman, she gave the impression of diligence, yet her superiors generally assessed her capabilities as merely average.
Early in her career, Varrscha's assignment was with Imperial Customs, where she held the position of captain aboard a light corvette. Later, she moved to the Navy's main forces, spending several years on the Star Destroyer Virulence under the leadership of Joak Drysso. During this time, she advanced to the role of executive officer, holding the rank of Captain. Upon Drysso's reassignment to command the Super Star Destroyer Lusankya, Varrscha was promoted to take his place. She then commanded the Virulence during the Bacta War, until Booster Terrik successfully bluffed her into surrendering at Yag'Dhul Station.
The prevailing sentiment among those who met Captain Varrscha was that she lacked inspiration. Mirax Terrik, who had once evaded her corvette, described her strategies as entirely predictable. Captain Sair Yonka of the Star Destroyer Avarice observed that the Virulence's performance under Varrscha's command was unremarkable. Specifically, she failed to enhance the effectiveness of her TIE fighters despite knowing she would face Rogue Squadron. Fliry Vorru believed her advancement was solely due to her association with Drysso, and he worried that commanding a Star Destroyer pushed her abilities to their limit. However, considering her willingness to surrender the Virulence at Yag'Dhul, an alternative explanation for her perceived lack of enthusiasm emerges: Lakwii Varrscha may not have been fully dedicated to serving the Empire.
