―Qi'ra to Han Solo[src]


Qi'ra is the deuteragonist of Solo. Growing up on the streets of the shipbuilding world of Corellia during the reign of the Galactic Empire, she was enmeshed in a life of crime, working for a local gang before becoming part of the Crimson Dawn. During her life on Corellia, she became romantically involved with Han Solo.

Background[]

Abilities[]

  • Martial Arts: Qi'ra was trained in martial arts, including the art of Teräs Käsi, by Vos and later Maul. Qi'ra utilized the form to take down the Pyke Syndicate member Quay Tolsite. She also learned the arts of Sith combat from Maul, to be able to counter Darth Vader attacks once they met in combat. Qi'ra became very effective at this fighting style, to the point that it reminded Vader of Palpatine's own fighting style.
  • Swordsmanship: Qi'ra is proficient with swords, which she uses to defeat Vos in combat. By the time of War of The Bounty Hunters, Qi'ra's swordsman skills have evolved so much over time that she wields two electro-swords with enough proficiency for Darth Vader to notice her skills despite her not being Force-sensitive.
  • Expert Marksman: Qi'ra is highly skilled in the use of blaster pistols.

Weapons and Equipment[]

  • S-195 blaster pistol: As a member of Crimson Dawn, Qi'ra wielded a chrome-plated S-195 blaster pistol.
  • Electro swords: At some point while training under Maul, Qi'ra started wielding two electro-swords, which can emit electrical charges to effectively repel and clashing with a lightsaber upon contact without being damaged. The swords can also unite the end of their hilts to create a larger double-bladed sword or be separated to release a series of small grenades from the hilt.

Appearances[]

Solo[]

Qi'ra tried to escape off Corellia with Han, using a stolen hyperfuel coaxium as payment for passage on an outgoing transport, but was apprehended while Han got away. Qi'ra would not see Han again for three years, and in that time she became a member of Dryden Vos' criminal syndicate known as the Crimson Dawn. On Vos' orders, Qi'ra joined Han, Chewbacca, and Tobias Beckett in a heist to steal unprocessed coaxium from the mines on Kessel, following a previous failed heist on the planet Vandor. To procure a ship for the heist, the team hired Lando Calrissian, captain of the Millennium Falcon. After reaching Kessel, the team infiltrated the mines with Qi'ra posing as slaver delivering Han and Chewbacca as slaves. Lando's droid, L3-37, instigated a riot to keep the guards occupied while they stole a consignment of unprocessed, volatile coaxium. The team successfully escaped on the Falcon, thanks to Hans prodigious piloting skills, and delivered the coaxium to the planet Sareen in less than twelve parsecs.

Upon arrival however, Han planned to sell the shipment to the Cloud Riders, who were in fact a rebellion group led by Enfys Nest. Han and Qi'ra tried to deceive Vos with fake coaxium, but he saw through their cunning plan thanks to his "inside man", Beckett. However, it is later revealed that the fake coaxium is real, and it was all a ruse to lure Vos' men into a trap. Beckett took Chewbacca hostage and escaped with the coaxium. Han, Qi'ra, and Vos engaged each other in a gunfight, resulting in Qi'ra killing Vos. She then urged Han to help the Cloud Riders and rescue Chewbacca, insisting she would join him shortly. After Han left however, Qi'ra sealed the room. Alone aboard Vos' yacht, she contacted Vos' superior who was revealed to be Maul. Qi'ra informed him of the mission's failure and assumed Vos' position. Shortly after rescuing Chewbacca and killing Beckett, Han saw Qi'ra leaving in Vos' yacht.

Star Wars: Forces of Destiny[]

Qi'ra makes an appearance in the animated short series Forces of Destiny. She first appeared in "Triplecross", where she was being hunted down by Hondo Ohnaka and IG-88.

Star Wars: Crimson Reign and War of the Bounty Hunters[]

In the canonical comic book series Crimson Reign and its predecessor, War of the Bounty Hunters, published by Marvel Comics, it was revealed that Qi'ra became the new head of Crimson Dawn after Maul's death at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi. She would eventually get her hands on the frozen body of Han after the events of The Empire Strikes Back, attempting to auction him off to the highest bidder as a means of heralding Crimson Dawn's return to the spotlight in the galaxy's Criminal Underworld. Leia, Chewbacca and Lando would attempt to stop her, only to run afoul of Darth Vader, who himself wanted Han as bait to lure in his son, Luke Skywealker and capture him. Qi'ra would duel Darth Vader on even terms for a time during the incident, but eventually was overwhelmed by the Sith Lord's power in the Force, barely escaping with her life.

Later on, it was revealed that she had known all along that Vader and Palpatine were both Sith, and plotted to liberate the galaxy from them using hidden Crimson Dawn agents within every organization in the galaxy. Her war with Vader and the Emperor was subtle and brutal, and many times, she managed to outwit the Sith Lord or misdirect his hunt for her forces. She would even at times align herself with Leia to ensure the Sith would fall. However, as revealed in a holocron made by one of her subordinates, the Force-sensitive historian Madelin Sun, also known as The Archivist, revealed to the reader that Qi'ra's plans eventually failed.

This failure was eventually revealed to be the result of her being betrayed by the Knights of Ren when she tried to use an artifact known as the Fermata Cage to try and trap Vader and Sidious in time, Had she succeeded, Qi'ra intended to send the Sith Relic, with them sealed inside it as a means of destroying the artifact. When the Knights of Ren betrayed her, Qi'ra was forced to flee as Crimson Dawn was destroyed. To the galaxy at large, Qi'ra was presumed dead, but in truth survived, assuming a new life in secrecy. Despite her defeat at the Sith's hands, her efforts gave the Rebel Alliance time to regroup, and two of her agents had passed along the plans of the second Death Star to the Rebellion, allowing them to ultimately bring down the Empire. When the Emperor and Vader died, Qi'ra watched quietly from the back of a cantina, incognito, satisfied that the Galaxy was free from the Sith at last.
