Biography
Seossra Thwisp was a Caphex from Caphexdis who served the Resistance as a spy during their Cold War with the First Order, keeping tabs on First Order activity along the borderlands. When full scale war broke out between the two factions following the Hosnian Cataclysm[1] in 34 ABY,[2] Thwisp was recalled from spy duty and began serving as an intelligence analyst, offering up her accumulated expertise on the First Order.[1]
In 35 ABY,[3] Thwisp was amongst the Resistance personnel stationed in the Resistance base on the jungle moon of Ajan Kloss.[1] She attended a meeting at the base following the death of Resistance leader General Leia Organa, in which the new leader of the movement, General Poe Dameron, briefed those present on a plan to attack the Sith Eternal forces stationed on the Unknown Regions planet Exegol.[4] Thwisp then returned to the field as part of the Resistance's forces that traveled to Exegol, where the Resistance ultimately triumphed in the battle after a large fleet of allies arrived to reinforce them. Following the battle, Thwisp returned with many others to Ajan Kloss to celebrate. During the celebration she stood talking with a human and then began cheering as the Wookiee Chewbacca and the pirate Maz Kanata reunited.[4]
