Varria

conflicted remorseful resourceful admiring defiant
Varria acts as Kivas Fajo's key associate aboard the Jovis. She executes Data's abduction by handing him a sabotaged PADD, triggering a neural overload, scanning his components, and coordinating transport. She delivers Fajo's orders, including civilian clothes for Data and revelations of the staged shuttle explosion to erode his hope. Her interactions reveal internal conflict: she covers for Fajo during Data's passive resistance, shows admiration for his defiance, apologizes for her role, attempts seduction on command, and confesses a 14-year secret alliance. She aids Data's escape by opening Fajo's safe and leading him to a shuttle pod, only for Fajo to murder her.
