Background
Asyra (A-seer-ah) is the only daughter of a powerful Bothan Clan Chief who is also Head of the Bothan Spy Network. She grew up in luxury and loneliness. Her mother had risked everything to run away, escaping her husband to join the Rebel Alliance. She had joined with the rebels and was an early designer of their unerground communication networks, until her husbands spies caught up with her. She was killed, and her husband, Asyra's father, was heartbroken. He had never stopped loving her but was trying to protect the Bothans by siding with the Empire. Asyra doesn't know this and blames her father for her mothers death. She grew up understanding the clandestine nature of how large networks work, and is able to easily be a spy, but has cast this off and run away from her home because she is tired of mystery and lies, wants to learn about Jedis and Truth. She knows all her fathers secrets, valuable secrets about many things in the galaxy, and for that reason (and because he loves her) her father has Bothans everywhere hunting her. Asyra knows the value of information.
