Description: Iden Versio, Inferno Squad Commander
Prefix: TI
Detachment: Jolly Roger Squadron
Context: Star Wars: Battlefront 2

Versio grew up on Vardos. Her father was an Imperial Admiral, and her mother an artist, who contributed to the designs of propaganda posters. She trained her entire life to be an Imperial commander, and joined the ranks of the Galactic Empire, but was not without her criticisms of it. She participated in the Battle of Yavin as a Senior Lieutenant under the callsign TIE Sigma Three. During the war, Commander Versio was given command of Inferno Squad. After being captured by the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Versio escaped with the help of Del Meeko's ID-10 seeker droid named Dio. In 4 ABY, she participated in the Battle of Endor and witnessed the destruction of the Second Death Star. Knowing they were defeated, the Inferno Squad looked to her for direction. Versio led her troops to avenge their Emperor, by hunting down the people responsible for his demise and the destruction of the second Death Star, namely, Luke Skywalker.
