Biography
- "I sense the weight of things, things I can't see. Pain, fear... need. Most beings carry the things that shaped them. They carry the past. But some... very few... your pilot... They're gathering as they go. There's a purpose to it. He's a messenger."
- ―Healer taking to Bix Caleen about Cassian Andor
In 2 BBY, a female human provided Force healing as well as emotional support to members of the Alliance to Restore the Republic on the moon Yavin 4. While on Yavin, her abilities only worked occasionally, but individuals would continue to come to her regardless. Eventually, Bix Caleen brought Cassian Andor to see the healer about a blaster wound on Andor's shoulder that was not healing. Despite his distrust in Force healers, Andor allowed the healer to gently touch his shoulder while she closed her eyes. As she healed Andor's wound, she was able to sense the strength and purpose of Andor's spirit, which gave her clarity and restored her faith in the process. Confused by her response, Andor left, but Caleen stayed to ask her what she saw in him. The healer described what she felt in Andor, eventually saying that there was a purpose for Andor, describing him as a messenger. When Caleen returned home, she discovered that Andor's arm was doing better. She proceeded to tell him about her conversation with the healer, calling him a messenger.[1]
In 1 BBY, as Andor prepared to depart on a mission to the Ring of Kafrene, the Force healer was unloading supplies when she made eye-contact with Andor. The man whose importance she had felt the previous year nodded at her as he walked towards his ship.[3]
