Qi'ra's Timeline
Key Events in Qi'ra's Star Wars Story
Qi'ra was born in 31 BBY.
Qi'ra is a human woman born on Corellia who rose from the streets of Coronet City to become one of the most powerful crime lords in the galaxy. As a child she was a scrumrat in the White Worms gang under Lady Proxima, where she grew up alongside — and fell in love with — Han Solo. Separated from Han during a failed escape at the Coronet Spaceport, she was sold into slavery and ultimately came under the criminal syndicate Crimson Dawn, becoming the trusted lieutenant of Dryden Vos. Reunited briefly with Han during the Kessel Run heist, she chose ambition over their relationship, killing Vos and answering to the syndicate's true master, Maul. After Maul's death she rose to lead Crimson Dawn as "Lady Qi'ra," waging a shadow war against the Sith and the Empire before the syndicate collapsed, after which she passed her legacy to the young Cadeliah and vanished into hiding. She is known for her cunning, her survival instinct, and her tragic history with Han Solo.
