The Parala, a vessel classified as a patrol ship, was under the leadership of Senior Captain Irizi'ar'alani "Ziara" of the Chiss Ascendancy. During her command of the Parala, Ziara assisted Senior Commander Mitth'raw'nuru "Thrawn" of the Boco in saving the individuals aboard an excursion liner from the danger of plummeting into a gas giant planet.
After the events of Senior Captain Thrawn's last stand, Mid Captain Csap'ro'strob "Apros" received a promotion to the rank of Senior Captain and assumed command of the Parala. Subsequently, the Parala was tasked with transporting Thrawn to the planet where he was supposedly exiled, with the hidden objective of infiltrating the Galactic Empire.
