Background
Born 27BBY.
Grew up on Glee Anselm, was still a child when the planet pledged loyalty to the Empire. Parents were vocal members of Anti-Imperial dissentient groups, particularly speaking out against the Empire's influence on the planet after the end of the clone wars. They disappeared under "mysterious" circumstances shortly after the official formation of the Galactic Empire. She absolutely believes that the Empire killed her parents.
Spent later childhood and teenage years with an aunt, uncle and a load of younger cousins in a swampy island slum. She was the oldest of all the kids and took the responsibility very seriously.
Managed passage off-world a few years before start of campaign. Simply weren't enough opportunities to make money where she was. Has a husband and was nearly going to have a kid with him before she had the chance to leave the planet. Messages him every chance she gets, which isn't often.
Currently making credits in a scrapyard during the day and at night as a pit fighter. Obviously looking for something better.
Motivation
MAIN:
Send enough money home to get family off-world and somewhere away from the Empire.
Uncle's debts are main thing keeping this from happening quickly.
SECONDARY:
More a nebulous thing, but wants to strike back against the Empire SOMEHOW, but not in any way that would endanger her family.
