Description: Norra Wexley (née Susser) was a female rebel pilot from the planet Akiva who served in the Alliance to Restore the Republic and New Republic during the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Endor, she returned to Akiva to reunite with her estranged teenage son Temmin Wexley but was drawn into a mission to rescue the captured New Republic pilot Wedge Antilles. Joining forces with Temmin, his B1-series battle droid "Mister Bones," the bounty hunter Jas Emari, and the former Imperial loyalty officer Sinjir Rath Velus, Norra and her makeshift rebel band sparked an uprising against the Empire on Akiva, disrupted the Imperial Future Council, and helped rescue Wedge Antilles. While attempting to apprehend the Imperial Admiral Rae Sloane, her TIE fighter was hit by burning debris from Sloane's shuttle. After recovering from her injuries, Norra, her son, and their companions joined the New Republic soldier Jom Barell in hunting down Imperial war criminals.
Later, Norra and her team undertook a mission at the request of Princess Leia Organa to rescue her husband Han Solo, who had gotten lost while trying to liberate the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk. During a raid on Ashmead's Lock, Norra and her team managed to free a hundred rebel prisoners including her husband Brentin. Norra and Temmin's reunion with Brentin was soured after he and the other Ashmead's Lock prisoners were used by the Empire to attack the New Republic leadership. Following the Attack on Chandrila Norra and her team embarked on a hunt for Grand Admiral Rae Sloane, whom they believed was responsible for the attack.
Norra's pursuit brought her to the barren Inner Rim world of Jakku. After escaping Imperial captivity, she along with Jas and Mister Bones continued their hunt for Sloane. Amidst the cataclysmic Battle of Jakku, Norra caught up with her old adversary Sloane and her estranged husband Brentin. Norra put aside her hostility towards Sloane and Brentin in order to join forces to stop Gallius Rax's plot to destroy Jakku along with the Imperial and New Republic forces. During the battle, Norra managed to reconcile with her husband before his death at the hands of Rax. Following the end of the Galactic Civil War, Norra followed her son Temmin to the New Republic's new flight academy on Hosnian Prime, to become an instructor.
Personality and traits
Norra Wexley was a human woman with silver hair. She was a loving wife and mother to her husband Brentin and son Temmin. She and Brentin were sympathetic to the Rebel Alliance with her husband carrying messages for the Rebellion before it had even broken out. Norra was greatly distressed when the Empire arrested her husband and developed a hatred for the Empire as a result. Her love for Brentin led her to leave her son Temmin in the care of her aunt Esmelle and to travel offworld to find her husband. In the process, Norra was caught up in the Galactic Civil War and joined the Rebel Alliance.
Norra characterized her decision to join the Rebel Alliance as one "made less in her head and more in her gut." She rationalized this decision by regarding her fears, worries, and emotions as anchors that held her to an old way of thinking. While Norra felt guilty about leaving her son behind to join the Rebellion, she justified it by telling herself that she was playing a role in fighting the Galactic Empire. Despite her involvement in the Rebellion, Norra never forgot about her son and husband and vowed to reunite with her family. Norra was a strong and headstrong woman, a trait that was inherited by her son Temmin.
While a strong believer in the rebel cause, Norra was troubled by the guilt of not fulfilling her duties as a parent to Temmin. Norra understood her son's anger and bitterness towards her for leaving him on Akiva to find Brentin. Following the Battle of Endor, she returned to Akiva to take her son offworld. After returning, she discovered that Temmin had become an independent businessman specializing in junk dealing. As a mother, Norra was concerned by her son's dangerous dealings with criminal elements. After Temmin rebuffed her attempts on two occasions to leave Akiva, mother and son were able to reconcile after the two join forces to fight the Empire on Akiva and rescue Captain Wedge Antilles.
Though Norra was initially skeptical that Temmin's modified battle droid Mister Bones could be his friend, she gained a more sympathetic appraisal of the droid after Bones assisted her rebel cell and expressed affection for her after Norra survived a near-death encounter. Following the Battle of Akiva, Norra and her son undertook a "family project" to repair Bones as a gesture of reconciliation. Norra was brave, adventurous, and reckless. On two occasions, she risked her own life by piloting a TIE fighter to attack the Empire.
Later, Norra became the leader of a team of hunters that included her son Temmin and Mister Bones. She was a strong and effective leader who cared for the well-being of her crew. Norra was incensed when a team member Jas Emari pretended to betray the rest in order to pay off her debts. She wanted her team members to trust her. Norra also had a great deal of respect for Princess Leia and Han Solo for their role in the Rebellion. Her loyalty and respect for them led her to resign her commission in the New Republic Starfleet to rescue Solo.
As a stubborn and strong-willed woman, Norra struggled to carry out orders which she regarded as going against her principles. While she at times had a difficult relationship with her teenage son Temmin, the two still loved and respected each other. Norra's love for her husband would be tested when Brentin, under the manipulation of Fleet Admiral Rax, made an attempt on Chancellor Mothma's life. This incident only fueled her hatred for the Empire particularly Grand Admiral Sloane, whom she wrongfully believed was responsible for the attack on Chandrila. Following the attacks, Norra led her crew on a hunt for the fugitive Grand Admiral.
Norra was willing to risk life and limb to pursue Sloane and contribute to the Empire's defeat. Norra's resolve was tested when she was captured and imprisoned by Imperial forces on Jakku. While Norra was initially uncomfortable with Mister Bones, she gained a better appraisal of the battle droid after Bones rescued her from Imperial captivity. Despite her mutual animosity towards Sloane and her distrust of her estranged husband Brentin, Norra was able to put aside these feelings so that the three of them could work together to defeat Gallius Rax, the true mastermind behind their suffering. Norra was also able to reconcile with Brentin before his death.
As a mother, Norra sought to reconcile with her son Temmin, whom she had left behind on Akiva to join the Rebellion. Despite her hard resolve, Norra was also capable of moments of levity. Once, she joked about Temmin smelling like clean towels when he was a newborn child. When Temmin expressed embarrassment, she jokingly responded that she had a "parental right" to embarrass him from time to time.
Skills and abilities
Norra Wexley was a good pilot who could fly various starships including a freighter and a TIE fighter. She was also a competent mechanic and once assisted her son Temmin in rebuilding his droid Mister Bones. Due to her involvement in the Rebellion, Norra knew how to wield a blaster and could also engage in physical combat. Norra was also able to take considerable damage in a physical fight. She was also a competent sniper and managed to wound Grand Admiral Sloane on one occasion.
