SyFy Wire describes Aphra as a " queer woman of color". [1] Slate notes, "She aches for two different women who have claims to her heart—two women whom, inevitably, she must betray to survive." [3] Gillen has confirmed Aphra's sexuality, saying he has written her primarily romantically interested in women (and as flirting with Luke Skywalker), but noted that real-world attitudes towards homosexuality "[don't] really exist in the Star Wars universe". [7] Of Aphra's doomed relationship with female Imperial captain Magna Tolvan, Gillen said he imagined "This hard-bitten, kind of very serious kind of person chasing down this more whimsical person and the sexual tension ... the flip of it is, Aphra's the person who's also pursuing Tolvan."

However, things improved immeasurably once I got onto the stories from Aphra's own solo series. No one is safe from the prime directive in her life [to save her own skin] and, even as the betrayals become the expected norm of each episode, it’s still fun to discover the particular manner of mischief Doctor Aphra has cooked. a b c d e f g Dennis, Catrina (May 26, 2016).

Of all the characters I've created for other people's universes, she's by far the most successful one ... She's kind of fun but at the same time, there's a really dark heart to her ... All those weird kind of contradictions to her, I think they're quite appealing. At the same time, she's got a very core thing people can get. She's quite complicated and not complicated at all. With Luke or Leia, they've got that core archetype you get, you get what they're like. You get that with Aphra but at the same time, there's an underlying ... all this weird, twisted stuff in there that kind of gets under people's skin." [7]

And Aphra ain't that. And I would suggest that the reason people ... respond more to Han Solo than they respond to Luke Skywalker is because he's not just playing the goodie.
