Myleena Dystra, a Human female, served the New Republic Security Force as an agent. She was born into affluence on the planet of Coruscant, raised in luxury by her wealthy Coruscanti parents within the confines of palatial estates and exclusive private schools. At thirteen, her life took a dark turn when she was incarcerated in a Galactic Empire readjustment camp, operated by the Imperial Commission for the Preservation of the New Order. This followed the arrest of her parents, who vanished, accused of sympathizing with the Alliance to Restore the Republic after the dissolution of the Imperial Senate. She was liberated from the camp by Special Operations of the Rebel Alliance and found refuge in a foster home. Motivated by her parents' fate, Dystra joined law enforcement under the newly established New Republic, becoming an agent of the New Republic Security Force. She quickly distinguished herself as a highly effective police officer, known for her numerous arrests. However, her zeal often led to unnecessary risks, resulting in her being wounded twice in the line of duty.
Born on the Core World planet of Coruscant in 13 BBY during the Galactic Empire's reign, Myleena Dystra was a Human female. Her upbringing was one of privilege, as her mother and father, both affluent Coruscanti, ensured she lived in a palatial estate and attended exclusive private schools. The course of her life dramatically changed when Emperor Palpatine disbanded the Imperial Senate in 0 BBY. Imperial stormtroopers seized the Senate Building, detaining and arresting hundreds, including Dystra's parents. They disappeared, never to be seen again by their daughter. Dystra later learned of their involvement with the Alliance to Restore the Republic, the Rebel Alliance, which opposed the Empire. Now an orphan, Dystra fell under the control of the Empire's political organization, the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order (COMPNOR), and was sent to a readjustment camp for Imperial indoctrination focused on the philosophy of the New Order. Not long after her arrival at the COMPNOR camp, a Special Operations team from the Rebel Alliance rescued Dystra, relocating her to a Rebel safeworld. There, she was raised in a Rebel Alliance foster home, learning to honor her parents' ideals. As she matured, Dystra resolved to dedicate herself to her parents' cause. Following the Rebel Alliance's victory and the establishment of the New Republic as the new galactic power, she became an agent within the New Republic Security Force (NRSF). Dystra quickly proved to be a very capable police officer, building an impressive arrest record. She participated in several significant operations, sustaining injuries in two separate incidents. She came close to death the second time she was injured in action.
Myleena Dystra possessed a youthful enthusiasm and a strong commitment to the ideals for which she and her parents stood. Driven and energetic, she fully dedicated herself to her role as an NRSF agent. However, this same enthusiasm often led her to take unnecessary risks. Her eagerness often caused her to take shortcuts and expose herself to danger in order to make arrests. Dystra was wounded on two separate occasions as a result of these dangerous situations.
Dystra was physically fit and trained in both unarmed combat and melee weaponry, including the use of stun batons. She was also proficient with blasters, particularly skilled with heavy blaster rifles. She was also adept at climbing and swimming, and possessed considerable physical endurance. Dystra had knowledge of astrogation and could pilot various transports, repulsorlift vehicles, and starfighters, notably the Y-wing, which was her assigned fighter. She had repair skills for armor and blasters, and also possessed computer repair knowledge. She was also trained in providing first aid.
As a police officer, Dystra had knowledge of various species, languages, and planetary systems. She received thorough training in law enforcement tactics, with a focus on investigations. Her street smarts enabled her to bargain effectively, and she was skilled at operating covertly.
In her role, Dystra wore the NRSF uniform, along with her badge and ID, a blaster pistol, binder cuffs, a stun baton, and a datapad. An R2 astromech droid also accompanied Dystra on her assignments.
Myleena Dystra was initially mentioned in Heroes & Rogues, a roleplaying sourcebook released by West End Games in 1995. The book, a supplement for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, was authored by Paul Sudlow and Rick D. Stuart.
