In the fictional Star Wars Expanded Universe, Shira Elan Colla Brie (a.k.a. Lady Lumiya) was a Force adept and Emperor's Hand who was trained in rudimentary Sith lore by Darth Vader. After Vader killed Emperor Palpatine and then died in the Battle of Endor, she inherited the title Dark Lady of the Sith, though whether this was through the guidance of the Sith spirits of Korriban, extensive studying of a Sith Holocron, or some other means is unknown. It is not known what Lumiya did when Palpatine's clones appeared. She became the true Dark Lady of the Sith when Palpatine's last clone was destroyed.

History

Born on Coruscant, Brie was trained as an Imperial Intelligence agent, and was dispatched by Vader to infiltrate the Rebel Alliance. This she accomplished, and brilliantly, working her way all the way up to Rogue Squadron, where her vivacious beauty and intelligence attracted then-member Luke Skywalker. While serving with the Rebels, Brie would work alongside Kyle Katarn, Corwin Shelvay, and Erling Tredway on a mission to D'rinba IV to disable the superlaser of Death Star II.

Later, based on the planet Arbra, Rogue Squadron was detailed to covertly attack an Imperial fleet; during the battle, Skywalker's equipment malfunctioned, and he was unable to determine which of the TIE fighters were Imperial and which were Rebel, leaving him no choice but to rely on sensing intent through the Force. Using his remarkable connection to the Force, he detected and shot down his unseen enemy — who turned out to none other than his comrade Brie. While under a cloud during an investigation of how he shot down a fellow Rogue, Skywalker discovered that Brie's putative homeworld Shalyvane was in fact background cover for her, and that her true mission had been to discredit Luke with the resistance so that he would join Vader.

Dark Lady Lumiya revealed for the first time

It was thought that she had perished in her fighter's crash, but Vader secretly had her damaged body nursed back to life and enhanced with cybernetic parts. Then he took her further under his tutelage, instructing her in the ways of the dark side in addition to her already fearsome skill set. She became, like Mara Jade, an Emperor's Hand, but while Brie was training on the fearsome Sith planet Ziost, both Vader and Palpatine perished in the Battle of Endor, leaving the title of "Dark Lady of the Sith" to her. It was there, seething with anger and bent on revenge, that Lumiya (as she now called herself) crafted her nearly-unique signature weapon: the "lightwhip", which had been previously invented only once: by the New Sith Githany. It was a lightsaber crafted out of Kaiburr crystal and Mandalorian iron, but with the ability to flex and move like a leather whip.

Haunted by visions of a galaxy consumed by war (precipitated by Lumiya's execution), Jacen appears to have taken the first steps towards becoming a Sith.
