Qi'ra was a human female from the planet Corellia who lived during the reign of the Galactic Empire. She grew up on the streets along with Han Solo, and the two eventually became lovers. Sometime after Qi'ra was made Head Girl by Lady Proxima, Han and Qi'ra attempted to escape with a vial of coaxium, but were separated at the spaceport, with Han getting away, though he promised to return for her.

During that time, Qi'ra was sold into slavery by Proxima, and was eventually sold to Dryden Vos, public leader of Crimson Dawn. Vos trained Qi'ra, both in the criminal businesses and practices, as well as in martial arts, which led to her being branded with the Crimson Dawn symbol and making Qi'ra his most trusted lieutenant.

After reuniting with Solo and assisting with a mission to steal coaxium, Qi'ra betrayed and killed Vos to save Solo. Soon after, she traveled to Dathomir to meet with Maul, the true leader of Crimson Dawn. It was during this time that there was an unknown shift of power within the criminal syndicate, with Qi'ra now leading Crimson Dawn.

With the resurfaced Crimson Dawn, Qi'ra leads the organization with a new drive: to unite all crime organizations under one banner with the sole purpose of destroying the Sith.
