Belden, Eppie
a strong-willed woman, the former Eppe Antruse was married to Bakuran senator Orn Belden, and was a member of the Bakuran resistance to Imperial nationalization. Eppie was later known as a "circuitry commando," using computers and electronics to assist in the sublimation of Imperial efforts. She was 132 standard years old at the time of the Battle of Endor, married to Orn for 101 of them, and suffering from what Imperial doctors had described as a degenerative brain disorder. In reality, she accepted an Imperial parasite that incapacitated her in exchange to her husband's protection. After Orn's death at the hands of Imperial interrogators, Eppie struggled to help Luke Skywalker and the Alliance overthrow the Ssi-ruuk as well as the Empire. Following the Battle of Bakura, the parasite in Eppie's brain was revealed and removed, and she quickly regained strength.
