Biography

Minn Ishkah began her career as a special envoy between General Elin Garza, Havoc Squad, and the Republic Senate. Her appointment came shortly after an incident on Ando Prime, in which Garza dispatched Havoc Squad without authorization or approval. Soon Ishkah's superiors realised that she had little infuence on Garza and got removed from that position.[3]

Manaan

In 3625 BBY,[2] after the invasion of Manaan, Ishkah was sent there to form an allience between the Selkath and the Republic.[1]

Personality and traits

With her time spent around General of Republic Special Forces Ishkah seemed to have adopted Garza's brash demeanor and impulsiveness, as well as her opinions on where, when, and how the Republic military should be involved. By the time she was removed from her position, she had formed many close contacts within the military who shared her fervent belief in the Republic's superiority over the Empire.[3]

Behind the scenes

Minn Ishkah appeared in the Legacy of the Sith expansion of Star Wars: The Old Republic as the contact for the Republic bonus series on Manaan.[1]

After completing the final mission, "Retribution in the Rift", the player can receive mail from Captain Wo Kasto expressing his disapproval over a budding relationship forming between Ishkah and his sister, the former Manaan isolationist, Mata.[4]
