Niobe Letto

Niobe Letto was a prominent Rebel Alliance and New Republic operative, serving mainly during the Grand Marshal Crisis, amongst other significant conflicts, such as the Thrawn Campaign and the Yuuzhan Vong War. Her life was a tumultuous one, having been born into the Great Jedi Purge and having been on the run since then, outliving her Jedi Master, and also accompanying Caminus Amel and Zeth Amphion in their exploits, until she joined the Rebel Alliance. She contributed to the capture of Coruscant, and was amongst the first students of Luke Skywalker's Jedi Enclave, built on the ruins of the Dantooinian one. Her most prominent service for the New Republic was in the defense against and apprehension of the Grand Marshal during his campaign. She was romantically attached to Zeth Amphion, a fellow Jedi, and married him prior to the onset of the Yuuzhan Vong war. She was either killed or she retired in the subsequent conflict.

Early life
She was born to influential spacer Tantalus Letto and a Hapan nurse, Clytia Dione. They met while Tantalus was injured en route to Selab while transporting spice. She admitted him in her clinic, despite the strong xenophobia at the time. Clytia was enraptured with his lifestyle and resigned in search of a more exciting life. Before long, their relationship went beyond platonic and Niobe was soon born on Kegan. Before her first birthday, though, she was discovered by Jedi Knight Orem Heb to be Force-sensitive, and as such was taken away from her parents to a new life at the Jedi Temple.

Youngling
Her career as a Jedi, however, was extremely brief. She studied in the same group as Zeth, learning basic Force skills, such as telekinesis, and basic lightsaber technique. She re-encountered Orem and his new apprentice Caminus Amel when they had returned from a mission on Endor. They met again a year later. Another year later, Caminus was being disciplined by Orem by being forced to oversee her class when clone troopers stormed the area, firing upon the Younglings.

On the run
Orem and Caminus took up arms against the clone troopers, and battled their way through the treacherous ambush with the Younglings, finally reaching a hangar full of transports. Killing a squad of Clone assassins on it, they escaped to a nearby spaceport, where they further broke into a Jadthu-class landing ship. This, though, was far from the end of their troubles.
