During the early years of the Galactic Empire, a Balosar female named Tlinetha earned her living as a barmaid. She worked at the Oyu'baat tapcafe situated in the city of Keldabe on the planet of Mandalore. Moreover, Tlinetha maintained a professional relationship with Tyno Fabris, an Arkanian lieutenant within the Black Sun organization. Around 18 BBY, Tlinetha played the role of intermediary when Jax Pavan, a Jedi Knight, sought information from Fabris regarding the whereabouts of Thi Xon Yimmon, the captured leader of a resistance movement. Developing an affection for Pavan, Tlinetha repeatedly tried to engage him romantically, but he consistently rejected her.
In the early years of the Galactic Empire's rule, Tlinetha, a female Balosar, supported herself as a waitress. She was employed at the Oyu'baat tapcaf, the oldest cantina on the Outer Rim world of Mandalore. This establishment was located within Keldabe, the capital city of the planet. Tlinetha became acquainted with Tyno Fabris, an Arkanian lieutenant serving Xizor, the Vigo of Black Sun, who was a regular patron of the Oyu'baat. Circa 18 BBY, she was hired to facilitate communication between Fabris and Jax Pavan, a Jedi Knight operating incognito. Pavan was seeking details from the Black Sun lieutenant regarding the location of Thi Xon Yimmon, the captured leader of the Whiplash resistance group. During this time, Tlinetha made attempts to flirt with Pavan, but her efforts were unsuccessful.
Tlinetha was a Balosar female of slender build, distinguished by lavender-colored eyes and intricately braided hair of the same hue. Her height exceeded the Balosar average, and she possessed fair skin and a captivating, velvety voice. Known for her kindness towards customers and her openly flirtatious nature, Tlinetha developed a fondness for Jax Pavan the Jedi during his initial visit to the Oyu'baat. She repeatedly attempted to flirt with him, but he consistently rejected her advances.
The novel Star Wars canon entry The Last Jedi, which was jointly authored by Michael Reaves and Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff and released on February 26, 2013, marked Tlinetha's debut appearance.
