Avon Starros was a human female who was the daughter of Galactic Republic senator Ghirra Starros and a member of the Starros clan. She was an aspiring inventor who lived during the High Republic Era. At the time of the Great Disaster, Starros, along with her protocol droid J-6, was supervised by Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh while traveling on a cruiser to the dedication ceremony of the new space station Starlight Beacon. However, when bombs went off aboard the cruiser, Starros, J-6, Rwoh, Padawan Imri Cantaros, and Honesty Weft escaped in a shuttle and wound up stranded on Wevo, a nearby jungle moon.
