Although this article is based on canonical information, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

Ema's parents were at least two individuals who were parents to the Corellian[2] humanoid[3] Ema, who was born[2] around 27 BBY.[1] They raised her on[2] the Core Worlds[4] planet Corellia, keeping the girl well cared for and fed. However, when they died[2] around 15 BBY,[1] Ema was left to fend for herself on the streets of Corellia and was recruited by the White Worms criminal organization as a scrumrat.[2] By 13 BBY,[5] the scrumrat Qi'ra had learned of the parents' deaths and later reflected on that part of Ema's life when the other girl was promoted to Head of the White Worms.[2]

Behind the scenes

Ema's parents were mentioned in Crimson Climb, a 2023 young-adult novel written by E. K. Johnston.[2]

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Crimson Climb establishes that Ema was fourteen years old on the same day Han escaped Corellia and that her parents had died two years prior. As Star Wars: Timelines dates his escape to 13 BBY, she must have been born around 27 BBY, and her parents must have passed away around 15 BBY.
