Spice Runners of Kijimi

Organizations

The Spice Runners of Kijimi were a group of smugglers and criminals from the Star Wars universe, particularly prominent in the 2019 movie, "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker". They operated primarily on the planet of Kijimi, a frigid, mountainous world located in the Mid Rim of the galactic map. Their main trade was smuggling spice, a type of illicit substance in the Star Wars universe.

The group was led by a feared individual named Zorii Bliss, a human female who was a skilled pilot and fighter. Her identity was concealed by a distinctive golden helmet. Zorii was a childhood friend of a main character, Poe Dameron, who once was a part of the Spice Runners before joining the Resistance.

The Spice Runners are depicted as hardy, ruthless, and opportunistic. They're not necessarily loyal to any of the major factions in the Star Wars universe, such as the Rebellion, the Empire, or the First Order. Instead, they operate mainly on the criminal underground, taking advantage of the chaos and conflict in the galaxy to make their profits.

Despite their illegal activities, the life and struggles of the Spice Runners and similar criminal elements in the Star Wars universe help to provide a more nuanced picture of life in the galaxy. Their existence shows that not every individual or group fits neatly into categories of 'good' or 'evil', 'Rebellion' or 'Empire'. It shows a broad ecosystem of actors all trying to survive amidst constant galactic upheaval.
