BiographyEdit

Described as being somewhat "cranky" and perhaps in advance age,^[1] her competence appeared to be enough to overcome the long-rooted Imperial female prejudice as by at least 28 ABY she was known to command the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Defiant. During the Battle of Borosk, she was instructed by Grand Admiral Pellaeon to assist a certain Lieutenant Arber subsequent to her Star Destroyer being fitted with a gravitic amplitude modulator (GAM), a device capable of jamming yammosk war-coordinating messages among Yuuzhan Vong forces.^[2] When ordered to engage, Essenton commanded the Defiant into the heart of the enemy formation, attacking the yammosk-bearing warship-analog and rendering debris.^[3] Almost immediately a second yammosk was located among the enemy fleet and Essenton led the Defiant in engaging it as well,^[4] though it would prove unnecessary as the Yuuzhan Vong forces withdrew soon after.^[5] Following the battle, Essenton was ordered to take Defiant to Yaga Minor in order to assist in the defense of that planet.^[6]
