Chelli Lona Aphra

"Oh no. I'm in love with an evil idiot."

- Magna Tolvan

Chelli Lona Aphra was a Human female who operated as a droid mechanic, rogue archaeologist, and agent of the Galactic Empire. Coming from a troubled childhood, Aphra studied at the University of Bar'leth and explored her sexuality with Sana Starros and other lovers, though the relationship went south. Doctor Aphra had a rivalry with Corellia Antilles, and worked for the Droid Gotra. She encountered Darth Vader and helped him confront Doctor Cylo, though crossed the Sith Lord and was forced to lay low. She began a love-hate relationship with Magna Tolvan after recovering the Rur crystal from the Citadel of Garn, and after falling under Eternal Rur's seductive influence auctioned the artifact while offering sexual favors to her buyers. She formed a crew, toying with Hera Syndulla, and consummated her simmering passion with Tolvan after Caysin Bog's death at Hivebase-1. However, Tolvan had her lover imprisoned in Akkresker Jail, where the rogue archeologist had a tense reunion with Magna and Sana.

Early life and career
"More than just a knockoff CA."

- Aphra, referring to Corellia Antilles

Chelli Lona Aphra was born in 24 BBY and grew up in a troubled childhood that saw the death of her mother and the estrangement of her father. However, she kept her life interesting by pursuing her passions for priceless relics, big scores, and passionate lovers. She attended the University of Bar'leth, studying under the lecherous supervisor Toob-Nix, and explored her sexuality with brigands and ruffians on Bar'leth. She also had lovers among her fellow students, including Susina and Sana Starros, and sliced school holoprojectors to display erotic artwork from the Mandalorian Wars for the enjoyment of her classmates. She negotiated additional credits with Toob-Nix before graduating and becoming a doctor, though her relationship with Sana went south.

At some point Aphra was hired by a mysterious alien admiral to collect the Mytag crystal skull of Xim the Despot from the Pryce family, and crossed paths with her rival, Doctor Corellia Antilles, who was working alongside Han Solo to recover the skull and return it to a museum. Aphra was unable to collect the rare artifact, and Antilles evaded her.

As a dangerous individual and a rogue archeologist, Aphra was employed by the Droid Gotra as a droid mechanic. She was scheduled for execution in the forests of Dantooine, but was able to trick the Imperial stormtrooper intending to kill her, and gave the young recruit a quick tryst before escaping. She crossed paths with Darth Vader while reactivating the assassin droids Triple-Zero and BT-1 for the Droid Gotra, and impressed her new acquaintance enough to join the Empire and help Vader gather forces to oppose Doctor Cylo. She and Vader traveled to Geonosis to steal the artificial womb of Queen Karina for use as a mobile droid factory, and set her hive ablaze.

While engaging in the Son-tuul Pride affair, Aphra was double-teamed by the Wookiee Black Krrsantan and the Trandoshan Bossk after they overcame their species' natural animosity. She was imprisoned in Sunspot Prison, and though she escaped she endured an unhappy reunion with her old flame Sana.

Rogue archaeologist
"Killing you is the only smart move...but you're cute."

- Aphra, to Magna Tolvan

Despite reminding Vader of his former lover Padmé Amidala, Aphra crossed the Dark Lord of the Sith and was ejected into space. Fortunately she survived with the help of Triple-Zero and BT-1, and laid low with a return to archeology. She formed an uneasy partnership with Ulbik Tan, whom she also took as her lover, and endured the adventurer's rough-housing to eventually kill him and obtain an artifact beneath the Cosmatanic Steppes. She dealt with the perverted gangster Soo-Tath, and was reunited with her father while embarking on a mission to uncover the Ordu Aspectu. She ran into the Imperial Captain Magna Tolvan on Yavin 4 during the Imperial occupation, and was detained by stormtroopers while searching the Great Temple of Massassi for clues leading to the Citadel of Rur. The troopers sexually interrogated her, though Chelli blasted her way free, pursued by Tolvan's forces to the citadel in what would be the start of a heated romance between the star-crossed lovers. Although she outsmarted the Imperial, Aphra spared her for being "cute". Aphra stole the Rur crystal imbued with the consciousness of Rur, and she fell under his influence while the crystal remained in her possession. She was tempted by seductive visions, and Rur compelled her to use the crystal as a pleasure device, in order for him to feed on her sexual energies. However, Aphra staged an auction of the Rur consciousness, and offered sexual favors to numerous potential buyers.

Aphra formed a crew including the Milvayne Authority lawman Tam Posla and his lover Caysin Bog, and again crossed paths with Tolvan on Somelik where she held the Imperial at gunpoint prior to the destruction of Tolvan's base. Magna would fantasize over Aphra while awaiting execution on Dendada XVII, though was spared and promoted to track Aphra to a Hellhulk Station on Skako Minor. Aphra faced down a Chthonic worm, and she and Magna shared a passionate kiss on the station. She and her crew faced Rebel forces when they infiltrated the Rebel flight academy Lucrehulk Prime, and Aphra captured Hera Syndulla, pleasuring herself with the Twi'lek before handing her over, gift-wrapped, to the Empire. Caysin was gunned down by Tarkin Initiative experiments on Hivebase-1, causing Posla to launch into a violent frenzy. Tolvan was able to overpower the distraught lawman to steal his armor, and posed as him while escaping from Lucrehulk Prime. Aphra and Tolvan finally made love afterwards while aboard a U-wing and for the following few days, though Tolvan remained loyal to the Empire and had Aphra sent to Accresker Jail. The lovers continued their attempts to kill one another despite their romance, and Tolvan provided Aphra with an intimate visit while she was incarcerated. Chelli later had another run-in with Sana, and saved her from the jail.

Legacy
During his low-power dormancy on D'Qar, the astromech droid imagined many of his previous lovers and acquaintances while recalling old memories, and had a vision of Doctor Aphra being reamed by BT-1, the maniacal assassin droid that had once menaced R2 on Vrogas Vas.

Description
Aphra was a lusty, unscrupulous, and dangerous individual. She referred to herself as "more than just a knockoff CA", in reference to her rivalry with Corellia Antilles. She was flirtatious, and would spare rivals she considered to be cute. She followed her passions, namely archeology, big scores, and romances and sexual encounters. A bisexual, Aphra explored her sexuality with students on Bar'leth, and engaged in relationships with women including Sana Starros and Magna Tolvan. She negotiated with sex, giving trysts to escape fatal situations, and offered sexual favors to get her way.
