Sela Trune was a human female officer of the New Republic Security Bureau. Trune had a vendetta against the criminal gang known as the Spice Runners of Kijimi after they were responsible for deaths of her family. Trune's hunt for the Spice Runners led her to cross paths with Poe Dameron, who had hesitantly joined the Spice Runners as a pilot.[1]
Biography[]
Joining the New Republic[]
Sela Trune was born on the planet Yungbrii. Eager to serve the New Republic's Security Bureau, she left Yungbrii, leaving behind her mother, father, and brother Gaithel. Less than a month into her service, she received a call from a New Republic officer, who told her that her entire family had been killed during a battle between the New Republic and the Spicer Runners of Kijimi. The spice runners, including the Klatooinian Vigilch, had fled to the Trune family farm where they took her family hostage and eventually killed them before stealing a ship and escaping. Trune would begin to move up the ranks of the New Republic Security Bureau, intent on scoring vengeance against the Spice Runners of Kijimi. Her quick advancement saw her work with colleagues much older than she. Creating a large connection of informants, spies, and more, Trune hoped to learn about the Spice Runners, intent on taking them down.[1]

- ↑ Poe Dameron: Free Fall states that Sela Trune is twenty-two years old at the time when Poe Dameron joined the Spice Runners of Kijimi. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary establishes that Dameron joined the Spice Runners sixteen years before the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Dameron must have therefore joined the Spice Runners in 18 ABY, and Trune's birth must have occurred in 4 BBY.
