Bio: Gunra was an Imperial Star Destroyer gunner on the ISD Claymore. He was a loyal member of the Empire due to his family's secret
liking of the Separatists during the Clone Wars, and was sent to the academy when he showed interest in serving his Emperor during a school event. There he trained in combat (Hand to hand and weaponry), but took a liking to the cannons on the Star Destroyers, as his father was a ship designer, and studied to become a gunner. It was there he met the female Mirailan Sia, who he became a close friends with and later a love interest. They graduated together and were assigned to The Claymore together in the same section, shortly after the events of the Battle of Yavin. They would spend most of their time together, but as the war went on, Sia started to doubt the Empire, feeling as if she had chosen the wrong side. Gunra would not see her side of this until they saw the carnage of the Battle of Hoth, where he saw among the dead bodies of rebel soldiers his sister, who was reported missing just weeks beforehand. The two began to think about defection, but only acted on it as they saw the Battle of Endor turn to the Alliance's side. They escaped the The Claymore via escape pods shortly before the destruction of The Death Star II, and landed on Endor's moon, surrendering and announcing their defection to the rebellion. The very same night Gunra would admit his love for Sia, and they began a new chapter of their relationship.
Gunra and Sia would fight in many battles together, including the battle of Jakku, where Gunra lost his hand to a Vibro-blade wielding Stormtrooper. Gunra's eyes were replaced with cybernetic ones as well under his request, to help him with his accuracy as a gunner in space and sniper on the ground. After the New Republic was established, Gunra proposed to Sia, who gracefully accepted and they retired back to Corellia. When the Resistance was created by General Organa to go against the First Order, Gunra and his son Tak returned to aid, but Sia stayed on Corellia. Gunra was already a captain at the time of his leave, but regained his ship after putting it in a shipyard and paying for it's stay there until it was needed again.
