Ganrea Beeliz was the Executive Officer of the Eighth Fleet of the Navy of the Iron Throne. A Human female from Corellia, she served as second-in-command of the Eighth since its inception after being appointed by Commodore Joss Malin with the consent of the Grand Master.
History
Beeliz was born to two middle-class merchants in 5 BBY in Coronet. Her father, Awthlan Beeliz, owned a business that sold and serviced speeders, droids, and other tech devices, and her mother, Rainea Beeliz, ran the storefront near the center of the city. Though they were far from rich, they made a modest income and were able to provide a comfortable living for themselves and their only child. Ganrea helped her mother in the store as a teenager, quickly developing an understanding and love for machinery, and, coupled with her above-average marks in the private school her parents had placed her in after the Imperial occupation, she was easily able to overcome discrimination against her gender to join the Imperial Navy as a cadet in 13 ABY. She proved to be an adept pilot and a quick study of strategy, two qualities which garnered her quick advancement. She was a Lieutenant in the Imperial Navy when she was assigned to newly-minted Grand Admiral Stephan Ronin’s strike fleet, aptly titled the Emperor's Hammer (EH).
Her service in the Emperor’s Hammer was nothing short of exemplary, and she quickly rose, after the fall of the Emperor and the EH’s spin-off as a self-sufficient Imperial Remnant organization, to the position of Joss Malin’s aide when he was a Lieutenant Commander in the Emperor’s Hammer. When he fell out of favor with the High Command of the Emperor’s Hammer, Ganrea took over command of the fighter squadron that Malin had previously occupied. Though she had some regrets over what she felt was an affront to Malin in taking over after his fall from grace, she nonetheless overcame her difficulties, eventually being elevated to Wing Commander over her old squadron eventually transferring to the fleet where she was given her own command and promoted to Captain.
Though on the fast-track, Captain Ganrea was becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the leadership of the Emperor’s Hammer. It was at the time of the Exodus within the Dark Brotherhood that she decided to alter the path that fate seemingly laid out for her. Tasked with following a number of the squadrons that were fleeing in support of the Seven, she instead ordered her wing to stand down. Quickly spiriting herself away in her personal ship, the Missile Boat Depths of Despair, she linked up with a few elements of the “rebel” Dark Brotherhood, who warily took her in.
Eventually making it to Antei, Ganrea was surprised to find her former superior Joss Malin. Malin bore her no ill will regarding their past and welcomed her to the fold. Both served, albeit not together, in the nascent Navy of the Iron Throne during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the Eighth Great Jedi War. After the debacle that was the Battle of Antei, Ganrea was instrumental in assisting the Dark Council in putting together the plans for the formal Navy of the Iron Throne. It served as no surprise, then, when Joss Malin was appointed as the commander of the Eighth Fleet, that he selected Ganrea as his Executive Officer.
