"I love to hear the odds. It makes it so much better when I beat them."
— Tendra Garvin

Tendra Garvin is the wife of Gerred Garvin and the mother of Tav Garvin. Tendra was identified early on by the Jedi Order as being Force-sensitive, but her parents refused to give their child over to the Jedi as they deemed that their daughter should choose her own path.

A proud native of Corellia, Tendra ended up serving as an agent of CorSec. She was also known to frequent casinos during her off hours, often successfully coming back from such trips with a profit.

Tendra's biggest secret was that she was also the bounty hunter known as Brisa Wild, a rather infamous figure in the underworld around the time of the Clone Wars. Only a very select few people knew that Tendra and Brisa were the same person.

Unfortunately, Tendra vanished without a trace shortly after the Battle of Yavin after accepting a bounty contract from a mysterious benefactor.

Her current whereabouts are unknown.

Brisa Wild[]

"She's only the person I've modeled my entire career after! Forget all the Boba Fett wannabes, Brisa Wild is the woman who inspired me to become a bounty hunter."
— Isis Sinclair to Tav Garvin

As Brisa Wild, Tendra was characterized by her willingness to take on any job regardless of the danger or terrible odds and somehow come back with the bounty intact. She was easily identified by her distinctive combat armor, red cloak, and the combat scope she wore over one eye. Her most distinctive feature, however, were the beads she wore in her hair; each bead was said to represent a successful hunt.

She was often nicknamed the Lady of Fortune, both for the size of the bounties she brought in and for her ability to beat the odds. The reputation of Brisa Wild, and her position as one of the top bounty hunters of her time, ended up inspiring many others to follow in her footsteps, including a young Isis Sinclair.
