Manchisco, Tessa
a native of the planet Virgillia 7, this woman was a veteran Captain who served briefly with the Alliance. The commander of the cruiser Flurry, Tessa joined the Alliance fleet at Endor shortly after serving in the Virgillian Civil War. Tessa was instrumental in the organization of guerilla warriors into serious military units during the civil war, turning the tide against the sheer power of her Imperial-backed enemies. She later commanded a small fleet of twenty-two ships sent to Sullust by the Virgillian Free Alignment. A student of the Virgillian military, Tessa's tactics were unorthodox, and confused the Imperial captains during the civil war and at Endor. She and her crew were killed near Bakura, when Imperial Governor Nereus ordered his ships to fire on the Alliance's ships, following a battle against the Ssi-ruuk.
