Elspeth Strobestock, the spouse of Sir Heron of House Barnaba, was married to a colonel within the ranks of the Imperial Army. In the time leading up to the battle of Hoth, Elspeth was known as a striking woman of middle age, characterized by her elegantly styled, lengthy, honey-blonde hair.
Her charm made her a much sought-after attendee at gatherings, where she captivated audiences with her storytelling skills and uninhibited flirtatiousness, generally garnering more favor from the male attendees than the female ones. Because her husband was a prominent figure in the burgeoning New Order, he was frequently absent, conducting affairs in the distant Outer Rim Territories. The Dame, Elspeth, consistently endeavored to project an image of longing for Heron's presence, though her apparent sorrow seemed to dissipate whenever she received the affections of a man.
