 Star Wars: Phasma
comment
Phasma is a Star Wars Expanded Universe novel by Delilah S. Dawson, who had previously written Star Wars short stories Scorched and The Perfect Weapon, which both gave backstories for new characters Greer Sonnel and Bazine Netal respectively. Likewise, Phasma delves into the backstory of Captain Phasma, who debuted into the franchise in The Force Awakens. It is a part of the multimedia project, Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi.One of the most cunning and merciless officers of the First Order, Captain Phasma commands the favor of her superiors, the respect of her peers, and the terror of her enemies. But for all her renown, Phasma remains as virtually unknown as the impassive expression on her gleaming chrome helmet. Now, an adversary is bent on unearthing her mysterious origins—and exposing a secret she guards as zealously and ruthlessly as she serves her masters.Deep inside the Battlecruiser Absolution, a captured Resistance spy named Vi Moradi endures brutal interrogation at the hands of a crimson-armored stormtrooper—Captain Cardinal. But the information he desires has nothing to do with the Resistance or its covert operations against the First Order.What the mysterious stormtrooper wants is Phasma’s past—and with it whatever long-buried scandal, treachery, or private demons he can wield against the hated rival who threatens his own power and privilege in the ranks of the First Order. His prisoner has what Cardinal so desperately seeks, but she won’t surrender it easily. As she wages a painstaking war of wills with her captor, bargaining for her life in exchange for every precious revelation, the spellbinding chronicle of the inscrutable Phasma unfolds. But this knowledge may prove more than just dangerous once Cardinal possesses it—and once his adversary unleashes the full measure of her fury.Not to be confused with Captain Phasma, which is a comic series that takes place during and between The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, also centering around Phasma.It was released on September 1, 2017, along with Leia, Princess of Alderaan as a part of that year's synchronized release of Star Wars merchandise known as Force Friday.Black Spire serves as a sequel, following the adventures of two of Phasma's main characters.

comment
Unreliable Narrator: Vi's internal narration confirms that she "embellished" some parts of the story she told Cardinal. Exactly which parts are real and which aren't is never stated. Going by Phasma's reaction, the bulk of the story was at least accurate.

A Father to His Men: Cardinal truly loves the children he trains, memorizing their numbers and nicknames and keeping track of their progress through the First Order. Part of the reason he despises Phasma is that she does not share the same care for their troopers as him.

Human Resources: Detraxors, one of the few bits of still functioning technology, are used to drain nutrients from corpses and convert it into a salve. It's treated as respectful last rites among the Scyre, as it allows the dead to continue to protect the living, and Siv being unable to administer it to their dead takes a toll on her.

Low Culture, High Tech: While the Scyre and Claws live savage lives and have so for generations, they're aware of a greater galaxy and higher technology out there from stories passed down within their tribes. Siv's detraxors are an example of this. Also, Phasma and her party have little trouble adapting to blasters and vehicles that they come across in their journey.

After the End
 Star Wars: Phasma / int_334e48a1
comment
After the End: Parnassos is an odd example, particularly for the hi-tech Star Wars universe. Generations ago, it was a Con Star Mining Corporation colony. At some point, a nuclear accident caused a considerable part of the planet to be blasted into a sandy and rocky wasteland, and automated orbital defense platforms meant that reclaiming the survivors was infeasible (or at least not worth the effort), which left the survivors to become tribal and scavenging. Phasma is born into this life.

At Least I Admit It: Phasma believes that everyone deep down is a monster like her, but she at least embraces it while everyone else is too ashamed to admit it. This is very likely a clear case of her believing that everyone is just as bad as her, even though they really aren't, which is a very common thing for sociopaths to do.

Klingon Promotion: Both Phasma and Armitage Hux engage in it. Phasma kills the Arratu and takes his place, along with other tribal and clan leaders. Armitage has Phasma kill his father so he can take his place.

Cliffhanger: Chronologically speaking, as the novel ends, Cardinal is dying from having been stabbed with a poisoned dagger by Phasma, Vi is flying to Parnassos both to save Cardinal's life and to fulfill her promise of finally getting Siv off-world, and Phasma might be very well headed to Parnassos too, to get rid of whoever revealed her past to Cardinal.

Scheherezade Gambit: Vi Moradi buys time by telling Cardinal the story of Phasma's origins. Attempted by Siv, who offers her services as a storyteller to the Arratu. He seems interested at first, but dismisses the idea after he decides she's too boring.

Nature Versus Nurture
 Star Wars: Phasma / int_d29e9f65
comment
Nature Versus Nurture: At first, you could say that Phasma's overall personality was the result of living in a Crapsack World that forced her to become ruthless in order to survive. But then, after comparing her to the rest of the Parnassians, who all lived lives that were just as harsh as hers, it is pretty noticeable that Phasma, who will go to lengths to survive that no other would, was most likely born already with a more morally shady personality. It is more than likely that had Phasma lived in a better lifestyle, she may not have become what she turned out to be, but she most certainly wouldn't have exactly become a good person either.

The Cavalry: When the Scyers are attacked by a pack of "skinwolves," Brendol Hux's Stormtroopers rescue them by killing the wolves with their blasters. It's a rare moment to see a Stormtrooper do anything heroic.

Morality Pet: Frey, a girl from Parnassos that Phasma spared and took to the First Order in hopes of turning her into a ruthless Stormtrooper on her level. But then Phasma somehow kills her anyway in order to keep up her Mysterious Past. Also, Phasma doesn't bother to take Siv with her, but she still points Siv out in a direction where Siv could receive medical care and shelter, negated by implications that Phasma will head off to kill Siv after learning that her story is out.

Call-Forward: Cardinal warns Hux that Phasma's Chronic Backstabbing Disorder would be a huge detriment to the First Order, which Hux mocks, believing that Phasma's ruthlessness is a sign of strength and Cardinal is weak for thinking otherwise. Come The Force Awakens, and she quite happily sells out Starkiller Base to save herself, destroying Hux's prize project and dealing a crippling blow to the First Order. Ironically, Armitage Hux murders his own father, much like his hated colleague Kylo Ren will do in The Force Awakens.

Hate Sink: If you're expecting the book to reveal a tragic backstory for Phasma... Well, it's there, but it doesn't justify her being a horrible human being. She's someone who will do anything to ensure her own survival and will stoop to any low to get what she wants.
