Background
Born on Felucia in Har Gau, Issie spent her formative years with her parents and little brother. The family was well off, although Har Gau was no place for a little girl with dreams of becoming a doctor. It had always seemed strange that a family with enough money for frivolities would live in such a sarlacc-pit of a town. Issie didn't realize why until she reached her teenage years, and her little brother, Oliver, started making contact with a local Hutt.
As it turned out, their father had worked for this Hutt for their entire lives as a hitman. Even more shocking was that their mother had been an assassin under the same patron for many years before they were born.
Soon after that, things took a turn for the worst.
Her father had failed to complete a mission, and his target escaped. The price for his failure was her mother's life. Issie hadn't known just how much control the Hutts had over all of their lives until her mother's death. It was at this point that she found out that her father had only been working for the Hutt because they provided a certain type of extremely rare tonic that couldn’t be found elsewhere. This tonic was the treatment for a degenerative genetic disease that Oliver, Issie, and their mother all carried.
The two children hadn't started to show symptoms yet, but learning that their time was limited without this treatment, the siblings had very different reactions. Oliver fell in with a rough crowd, and started working with the Hutt. On the other hand, Issie decided that she would "get off of this miserable dusty rock" and see the Galaxy before she succumbed, rather than be under the thumb of the Hutts her entire life, even if it may be longer.
On the day that she had set to leave, she got a call from her brother, Oliver, begging her to come help him. She sensed that something was very wrong, and set back into Har Gau with a blaster in hand. The same gang that he had fallen in with had decided they no longer had a use for him, and planned to use him to lure her into a trap, before selling off both of them for a profit.
They never got that far, however, not anticipating that she would fight back so fiercely in defense of her little brother. She had nearly managed to save him, but ultimately only got to him in time to watch him die at the hands of someone he had once called a friend.
With nothing keeping her tied to Felucia anymore, she left on the next freighter she could book a transport on, joined the GAR, and one year later, the war started.
