Melina Carniss

*Melina Carniss served as a dancer and later a dance choreographer for Jabba the Hutt at his palace on the planet of Tatooine. She was also a secret security officer at the palace. Two years after the death of Jabba, she was recruited by smugler chief Talon Karrde, but she became a spy of Ysanne Isard during the Bacta War. She captained the YT-1210 freighter Empress' Diadem during the Bacta War. Karrde used her to unwittingly feed misinformation to Isard and ultimately set the stage for the Battle of Thyferra. After Isard's downfall, Melina freelanced working for Admiral Daala and providing intel to Erisi Dlarit. She is a frequent target for kidnapping by bounty hunters and smugglers hired by Talon Karrde and Mara Jade.*
