Maya Pei

"Kreegyr's a separatist. Maya Pei's a neo-Republican. The Ghorman front. The Partisan alliance? Sectorists. Human cultists? Galaxy partitionists. They're lost!"
―Saw Gerrera rants to Luthen Rael[1]

Maya Pei was the leader of a Neo-Republican Collective during the time of the Galactic Empire. The collective had connections with the anti-Imperial network coordinated by the rebel agent Luthen Rael, one cell associated with Pei getting a targeting unit from the network but losing it when the Empire found their safe house.

Biography[]

"Caleen gave us a list of every piece of gear that came through Ferrix. And I think we've already got a match to a targeting unit recovered from a safe house operated by a rebel cell associated with Maya Pei."
―Dedra Meero, in a meeting with the ISB Board[3]

During the time of the Galactic Empire, the neo-Republican Maya Pei[1] led a Neo-Republican Collective which became a notable rebel faction[2] by 5 BBY.[4] The collective had connections with the rebel agent Luthen Rael, who coordinated an anti-Imperial network which stole and traded stolen Imperial technology. One cell associated with Pei attained a targeting unit from Rael's network, keeping it in a safe house. The Empire eventually found the safe house, recovering the targeting unit.[3]

Pei's group was one of many that was disliked by Saw Gerrera,[1] the leader of the extremist rebel group known as the Partisans.[2] Gerrera derided Pei as a neo-Republican to Rael during one of their trade meetings[1] in 5 BBY.[4] Around the same time, the Empire's Imperial Security Bureau apprehended Bix Caleen,[1] one of Rael's contact on the planet Ferrix that sold him Imperial tech.[2] After interrogating Caleen, ISB Supervisor Dedra Meero gathered a list of Imperial gear that passed through the Ferrix, which included the targeting unit that was identified as the one eventually recovered from the safe house associated with Pei.[3]
