No i haven't abandoned it, i've just been waiting for the A-wings to begin their manouvour and get a third Y-wing pilot.

[Quist]

I'll step in and take the third Y-wing pilot, if it'll help us get going.

 

Position: Thunder 3

Name: Laveen Silverthorne

Callsign: Greenhorn

Species: Falleen

Rank: Second Lieutenant

Sex: Female

Age: 50

Appearance: Long, thick, black hair, scarlet eyes and lightish green skin.

Bio: Laveen was born on Falleen in 47 BBY to a noble family in the lower echelons of Falleen society. When she was only one year of age, her family's private yacht was hijacked by pirates while touring the Outer Rim territories. Laveen was placed in an escape pod by her mother and jettisoned into space. The pirates did not detect the launch, primarily because they were so intent on ransacking the ship. Laveen's pod eventually made planetfall onto the agricultural world of Agamar.

 

There, Laveen was found by kindly Agamarian farmers on one of the more remote continents. She was raised alongside the farmers' children as one of their own and as such, retained very little of her Falleen heritage. She was ostracized in Agamarian society at first because of her appearance, but her adoptive family was quick to defend her. Her natural Falleen intelligence soon asserted itself and she was able to help her new family become prosperous.

 

During the Clone Wars and the ensuing battles taking place on Agamar, Laveen's father took his family away to a safer location while he himself ventured out to aid the Republic. Unfortunately, he was killed during one of the major battles between Republic and CIS forces. Following his death, Laveen's eldest brother took control of the family's business, continuing to prosper with Laveen helping him.

 

During one of her routine visits to Agamar's capital, Calna Muun, she happened to meet young Keyan Farlander. They often played sabacc together when Laveen was in town. During these times, Keyan would often tell Laveen of his dream to strike back at the Empire, who had taken his family away from him following the orbital bombardment of Tondatha, his hometown. Laveen sympathized with the passionate young man and when Keyan took part in the Agamar Resistance and subsequently joined the Rebel Alliance, it did not take long for Laveen to follow in his footsteps.

 

She initially enlisted in the Ordnance and Supply Service, but following a hotshot manuever to help a convoy evade an Imperial Interdictor cruiser completely unscathed, was promoted to Second Lieutenant and transferred to Starfighter Command. It was there she displayed an affinity for the Y-wing, a fighter she thought best represented the hard-working spirit that characterized Agamarians. Following the Battle of Hoth, she was reassigned to the Mothma's Arrow.

 

Her callsign is 'Greenhorn', a double reference to her skin color and her relative newness as a pilot. It doesn't really bother her, though she wouldn't mind a different moniker.
