Leena Eligos was bornt in Devaron to one of the 72 ruling clans (the Eligos). Both being clan-born and a woman meant that her future was set in stone, she was expected to either inherit her mother's position in the government or find another, equally boring, job in Devaron. Unfortunately (for the Eligos), Leena was much more interested on blasters and adventure than on being a bureaucrat. When she reached her majority of age, Leena decided to join a private military company with her mother's reluctant support, on the condition that she would return home at some point.
Leena's career was derailed almost immediately. The PMC had been contracted by the Galactic Mining Guild to suppress worker unrest in a Outer Rim planet known as Tropico. She deserted, along with 30 others, when she was first ordered to shoot at peacefull protestors. Following her desertion she joined the insurgency and fought for 4 brutal years until Jar Jar Binks dismantled the Mining Guild on his third year as Chancellor. Following the Galactic Economic Fairness Act, the judiciary intervined immediately and decisively to excise all Guild-aligned forces from Tropico.
Utterly tired of adventure, and violence, she returned to Devaron and accepted a comission as instructor in Lillia Bael's Academy for Cadets. From then on Leena became much more active in politics and a vocal supporter of the Republican Revitalization Movement (RRM) within the military. Her political career culminated on her becoming the Secretary General of the RRM in the Duluur Sector.
