Luke Skywalker's life has been indelibly changed by encounters with remarkable people. But if ever one person can be said to have had the greatest impact on his life, it is his beloved wife, the fiercely independent and stubbornly determined Mara Jade.
与众多非凡人物的偶遇总是不可逆转地改变着卢克·天行者的人生轨迹。如果说谁影响他的一生最深，那必然是他爱妻——个性独立、坚毅倔犟的玛拉·杰德。

She was once known as the Emperor's Hand -- a highly skilled assassin and operative who could hear Emperor Palpatine's bidding from across the galaxy. Trained since childhood and honed into a weapon, Mara learned self-sufficiency, piloting, marksmanship and talents in the Force while serving her dark master.
她曾是“皇帝之手”——一名技艺高超的刺客和特工，可以跨越整个银河系听到帕尔帕廷皇帝的召唤。玛拉自幼受训，被磨炼成了一件兵器，她熟谙野外生存，精通飞船驾驶，枪法百步穿杨，而且拥有原力天赋，忠心耿耿地为黑暗主人服务。

One of her last missions was the assassination of Luke Skywalker. Emperor Palpatine was dismayed by the changes in Vader following the Dark Lord's lightsaber duel with his son on Bespin. Skywalker had stirred something in Vader, and the Emperor distrusted his closest agent. As a contingency, the Emperor dispatched Mara to track down and kill Skywalker.
她最后的任务之一就是暗杀卢克·天行者。黑暗尊主维德和儿子在贝斯平进行一场光剑对决后，内心发生了变化，这让帕尔帕廷皇帝非常不悦。天行者激起维德内心的某些情感，使皇帝不再信任这位他最亲信的代理人。为以防万一，皇帝派玛拉追踪并除掉天行者。

Mara knew that Skywalker would attempt a rescue of his imprisoned friend, Han Solo. She infiltrated Jabba's palace, posing as a dancer named Arica. She failed to get close enough to Skywalker, and Jabba refused to let her attend the execution party heading out into the desert. She missed her chance.
玛拉料到天行者会企图解救被监禁的朋友汉·索洛。于是她潜入贾巴的宫殿，化名阿丽卡，伪装成一名舞女。但她一直没有机会接近天行者，贾巴又拒绝带她参加在沙漠深处举行的行刑仪式。她错过了下手的机会。

A perfectionist, Mara could not abide failure. She wished to make it up to her dark master, but never got that chance. In mid-transit back to Coruscant, Mara felt the Emperor's death through the Force.
玛拉是一个完美主义者，无法忍受失败。她希望向她黑暗主人弥补这次失败，但永远也没有机会了。在返回科洛桑的中途，玛拉通过原力感受到，皇帝驾崩了。

Her entire life of high-placed contacts, elevated status, and lifelong purpose collapsed with the defeat of the Empire at the Battle of Endor. Through the Force, Mara received fragmented images of the Emperor's final moments. Luke Skywalker was there... as was Vader... and the two murdered her mentor.
她的整个生命，她在帝国高层的关系，她显赫的地位，她一生的目的，都随着帝国在恩多战役的失利，轰然倒塌。通过原力，玛拉收到了皇帝死前最后一刻的片断影像。卢克·天行者……还有维德……他们两人合谋杀死了她的导师。

For years, she blamed Skywalker for Palpatine's death and the loss of her purpose. Mara floated along the fringe of galactic society in the years after the Battle of Endor. She eventually found herself as a pilot and operative in Talon Karrde's smuggling organization.
数年来，她一直把帕尔帕廷的死，把她人生目标的迷失，归咎于天行者。在恩多战役后的岁月里，玛拉一直在银河社会的黑道随波逐流，最后成了塔隆·卡尔德走私组织中的飞行员和特工。

During the events of Grand Admiral Thrawn's campaign against the New Republic, Mara came face to face with Luke. The two had to cooperate to survive the wilderness of the planet Myrkr. They settled on an uneasy peace -- and Luke explained that it was not he who had killed Palpatine, but rather it was Vader.
在索龙元帅对新共和国发动的战役期间，玛拉终于与卢克狭路相逢。但他们两人不得不齐心协力，才平安穿过摩克尔行星的荒野。他们在局促而紧张的气氛中实现了和平共处——卢克向她解释了事实真相，杀死帕尔帕廷的不是他，而是维德。

Witnessing Luke Skywalker's Jedi abilities, Mara developed a begrudging respect for the war hero. Though she openly and brusquely questioned many of his philosophies, the two were often paired together during the Thrawn crisis, and their talents complemented each other perfectly time and again. Following the defeat of Thrawn, Luke gave Mara the gift of his first lightsaber, a weapon long thought lost but recovered by agents of the Empire.
目睹卢克·天行者的绝地能力后，玛拉虽不情愿，但也不得不尊敬起这位战争英雄。尽管她直率而粗暴地质疑了他的许多人生观，他们还是经常在索龙危机期间组成搭档，他们的才能一次又一次完美互补。索龙被击败后，卢克把自己的第一把光剑，也就是他丢失很久以后被帝国特工寻获的光剑，作为礼物送给了玛拉。

Mara didn't want to be saddled with commitment to Skywalker's new Jedi order, so she refused his invitation to train. After all, she had survived all this time on her own, and had supplemented the Empire's finest training with hard-earned field experience. She had long been independent and the baby-steps of Luke's Jedi praxeum had no place for her.
玛拉不想对天行者的新绝地武士团作出承诺，所以拒绝了与他一起训练的邀请。毕竟，她一个人熬过了这段时期，除了帝国最精锐的训练，她还有用血汗换来的各种实战经验。她长期以来一向独立生活，卢克那种初级的绝地实学院中没有她的位置。

Still, in her efforts to master her talents, she came across Kyle Katarn, another self-trained Jedi who had ignored Skywalker's invitation. The two trained together for a while, but the dark side crossed their paths. Realizing the dangers of the Force, Katarn admitted that the group learning experience of Skywalker's academy had its benefits, and became one of the first students. While Mara did visit the academy on occasion, she did not become a full-time student.
就在努力掌握自己的才能时，她偶遇了凯尔·卡塔恩——另一位没有理会天行者邀请而自学自练的绝地。他们一起训练了一段时间，但是黑暗面阻挡了他们的自学之路。卡塔恩意识到原力的危险，承认在天行者的学院中集体学习确有好处，于是成为学院的第一批学员之一。而玛拉，尽管偶尔也造访学院，却并没有成为全日制的学员。

Mara focused on her career in the fringe, accepting increased responsibility in Talon Karrde's newly formed Smugglers Alliance. She undertook a number of information-gathering missions, pairing with Lando Calrissian on occasion. Despite the dashing gambler's best efforts, he was never able to woo Jade into anything other than a strictly business relationship.
玛拉把精力集中在黑道事业上，在塔隆·卡尔德新成立的走私者同盟中，承担起越来越多的职责。她执行了许多情报搜集任务，有时也与兰多·卡瑞辛搭档行事。不管这位浮华时髦的賭徒如何表现，如何献殷勤，玛拉丝毫不为所动，只与他保持严格的生意关系。

Karrde, who was grooming Mara to be his successor, wanted her to gather an even wider variety of skills. Mara became increasingly independent in the following years, loosening her ties with the Smugglers Alliance.
卡尔德想培养玛拉作自己的接班人，甚至想要她掌握更多更全的技能。但在接下来的几年，玛拉变得越来越独立，对走私者同盟的联系也逐渐疏远。

During the Camaasi Document incident, Mara was investigating Chiss activities on the distant world of Nirauan. She once again teamed with Luke Skywalker as they infiltrated the mysterious outpost known as the Hand of Thrawn. Together, their skills and personalities complemented each other perfectly; if not for their pairing, they would have perished.
在卡马斯文件事件中，玛拉在遥远的尼劳安星球调查奇斯人的活动。她再次联合卢克·天行者，一起潜入被称为“索龙之手”的神秘前哨基地。这次联手使他们彼此的技能和个性得到完美的互补；若非如此，他们都将无法全身而退。

It was then that they realized how perfect a match they were. Despite a decade of tension between the two, and a relationship that started with near-violent acrimony, the two had fallen in love.
直到那时他们才意识到，彼此的配合是多么完美。尽管十年来两人之间一直气氛紧张，尽管最初玛拉对卢克怀着刻骨的仇恨，但他们还是坠入了爱河。

Following the peace treaty that brought a formal end to the Galactic Civil War, Mara Jade and Luke Skywalker wed on Coruscant. For a galaxy undergoing seismic political change, the two represented an inspiring notion and a powerful symbol. A former Imperial agent and the galaxy's most powerful Jedi Master had found a way beyond their past differences to find love.
银河内战通过缔结和约而正式结束后，玛拉·杰德和卢克·天行者在科洛桑举行了婚礼。此时的银河系正经历着天翻地覆的政治变革，而他们两人的结合是一个强有力的象征，表现了一种鼓舞人心的观念。一名前帝国特工和银河系最强大的绝地大师，尽弃前嫌，殊途同归，寻获爱情。

The New Republic, long plagued by war and insurgents, was eager to embrace a time of peace. While Luke continued to train new initiates at the Jedi academy, Mara kept up her contacts in the fringe. She took Luke's niece, Jaina Solo, as a Jedi apprentice. This tranquility, unfortunately, was short-lived.
新共和国长期遭受战争与叛乱的蹂躏，急切渴望拥抱和平时光。卢克继续在绝地学院训练新学员，而玛拉仍保持与黑道的联系。她收了卢克的外甥女杰娜·索洛为绝地学徒。很不幸，这种宁静很快就被打破了。

It began in a subtle, insidious fashion. While on a diplomatic mission to Monor II, Mara was secretly infected with a coomb spore, a deadly bio-engineered pathogen crafted by the Yuuzhan Vong. When the full invasion of Yuuzhan Vong forces began, Mara was already weakened, tapping into the power of the Force to sustain her life. Mara focused the Force within her to cleanse her body of this infection. The process was exhausting.
危机阴险隐蔽地潜声袭来。在莫诺二号行星执行外交任务时，玛拉不知不觉被库姆孢子感染，这是一种遇战疯人利用生物科技制造的致命病原体。当遇战疯人的部队全面入侵时，玛拉已十分虚弱，只能依靠原力的力量维持生命。玛拉将原力在体内聚焦，来清除感染。这个过程几乎让她筋疲力尽。

It was during this illness that Mara discovered she was pregnant. This galvanized her resolve to fight off the disease. She carried the child to term, and the healing glow of the Force bolstered by the love of mother, father and newborn son finally cured Mara of the Yuuzhan Vong sickness.
正是在患病期间，玛拉发现自己怀孕了。这更激发了她击退病魔的决心。临产时，母亲、父亲和新生儿三人的爱使得原力的治愈力增幅，终于使玛拉从遇战疯人的疾病中解脱出来。



Despite the carnage and destruction sweeping the galaxy, there was a quiet moment affirming life and hope as Mara Jade Skywalker and Luke Skywalker welcomed their infant son Ben into the world.
屠杀和毁灭横扫银河系，但这平静的一刻，是生命和希望的证言，玛拉·杰德·天行者和卢克·天行者迎接着儿子本降生到这个世界上。

This peace was short-lived as the Yuuzhan Vong attacks continued to weaken the New Republic and diminish the Jedi ranks. Mara, aboard her Jade Shadow starship, continued flying missions against the invaders while her son was safely sequestered on the Jedi safeworld code-named Eclipse.
平静的时光是短暂的。在遇战疯人的持续攻击下，新共和国不断衰弱，绝地组织伤亡惨重。玛拉驾驶“杰德阴影号”星际飞船，不断执行对抗侵略者的飞行任务，儿子则安全地隐藏在绝地控制的安全星球，代号“日蚀”。

Together with her husband, Mara voyaged to the conquered world of Coruscant, to investigate strange stirrings in the Force. The once gleaming metropolis world was overgrown with Yuuzhan Vong organic technology, transformed from a modern city to a fetid jungle. In the planet's depths, Mara used her still-functioning access codes to reveal the source of the Force-disturbance. Irek Ismeren, the son of a fellow Emperor's Hand, was corrupted and reformed as Lord Nyax, a dangerously unstable Dark Jedi.
玛拉与丈夫一道，前往被占领的科洛桑星球，调查原力中的奇怪扰动。这个曾经光鲜辉煌的大都会星球现在被遇战疯人的生物技术变成了植被疯长的地方，一座现代城市就此被改造成散发着腐臭的丛林。在行星深处，玛拉用她仍然有效的通行密码发现了原力扰动的源头。艾尔克·伊斯梅伦——另一位皇帝之手的儿子——变成了尼亚克斯尊主，堕落为一名情绪极不稳定的危险黑暗绝地。

In the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong War, Mara and Luke both worried about their son's decision to cut himself off from the Force, and were glad when Jacen Solo agreed to work with Ben. Both Mara and Luke tried to concentrate on their son's continuing education, working with Jacen to help Ben grow in the Force. However, Ben began to grow distant as Jacen veered toward the dark side. Luke realized that Lumiya had returned, and Mara took it upon herself to hunt down the Dark Lady of the Sith.
遇战疯人战争后，玛拉和卢克的儿子本决定切断自己与原力的联系，这让他的父母十分担心，幸好杰森·索洛答应与本一起工作。玛拉和卢克都试图集中精力让儿子继续学习，与杰森一起帮助本在原力中成长。但是随着杰森渐渐滑向黑暗面，本开始对人冷淡疏远。卢克意识到卢米娅回来了，玛拉决定亲自出马，追踪这位西斯黑暗女主。

After a struggle with Lumiya on Kavan, Jacen attacked Mara. The two grappled, attacking each other with fists and the Force before Jacen jammed a poisoned dart into her leg. As she died, Mara railed against Jacen, claiming that he his transgression to the dark side and adoption of Sith methods meant he was as evil as Palpatine had once been.
在卡万与卢米娅对决后，杰森袭击了玛拉。两人扭打在一起，用拳头与原力互殴，最终杰森将一支毒镖刺进玛拉腿中。玛拉临死前斥责杰森，怒叱他投向黑暗面，采用西斯的诡计，这意味着杰森已像当年的帕尔帕廷一样邪恶。


幕后



Author Timothy Zahn created Mara Jade for the Thrawn Trilogy of novels. In a 1998 survey, the Star Wars Insider asked readers to name their favorite characters. Mara Jade was the only Expanded Universe character to break the top 20, true testament to her popularity.
在小说《索龙三部曲》中，作家蒂莫西·扎恩创作了玛拉·杰德这个人物。在1998年的一项调查中，《星球大战知情者》让读者列出他们最喜爱的角色。玛拉·杰德是唯一打进前20名的衍生宇宙角色，这足以证实她受欢迎的程度。

Though starting off only in print, Mara has since appeared in a wide variety of media. Dark Horse has featured Mara in a number of comic stories, most notably the comics adaptation of the Thrawn Trilogy, and her own miniseries, Mara Jade: By the Emperor's Hand. Hasbro crafted an action figure of Jade as part of an Expanded Universe subset. Mara was also the star of the Mysteries of the Sith expansion to LucasArts' Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II.
尽管初登场的舞台只是小说，但玛拉之后也在多种不同媒体中大放异彩。黑马漫画公司的许多漫画故事中都有玛拉出场，最著名的当属《索龙三部曲》的漫画改编版和她自己的迷你系列《玛拉·杰德：皇帝之手》。孩之宝出品了杰德的活动人偶，纳入其衍生宇宙子集中。玛拉还是卢卡斯艺界游戏《绝地武士：黑暗力量Ⅱ》资料片《西斯之谜》中的主要人物。

One of the most remarkable incarnations of Mara was a live action photo taken for the Enhanced Jabba's Palace expansion set for the Star Wars Customizable Card Game. Decipher Inc. hired model Shannon Baksa to pose as Mara for a number of card images. Many subsequent products have since borne Baksa's likeness to represent Mara.
最令人瞩目的玛拉形象之一是“《星球大战》可改造卡片游戏”中为“贾巴宫殿增强版”套卡摄制的真人照片。Decipher公司雇佣了模特香农·巴克萨扮演玛拉，为若干卡片取景。之后的许多后续作品，在描绘玛拉时，都参考了巴克萨的形象。
