Name: Lokk Vao

Age: 24

Species: Twi'lek

Appearance: Blue, scrawny, and usually wearing black pants, a white shirt, and a leather jacket.

Occupation: Trader/Negotiator

Skills: Tech and medicine savy, but by no means an expert. He knows several languages, and the value of a wide variety of things.

Personality: A peaceful man, he tries to solve every situation without violence, having seen first hand many times when violence only made matters worse. Some times, however, you have to use violence. He is more neutral in his use of the force than the Jedi would have him be, as he recognizes that there are times when Fear and anger, dark side emotions, are an appropriate response, and times when light side emotions will not help. He is always careful to not let these darker emotions consume him, knowing that they will only result in violence.

History: Born to a prostitute on Nar Shadaa, he grew up fast, always trying to earn money any way he could. When he found that he had a gift for negotiation, he used it in much the same way; he made money through trading. Though he sometimes lost money, it was usually because he thought that more could be made in the long run if he sold a space captain cheap power cells, or gave the refugees food at cost. His dealings with so many sentient races taught him several languages, including Basic, Huttese, some Mandolorian, and even Sheriwook.
When he was thirteen he found out that a local starship mechanic owed a lot of money to a local Hutt, a being notorious for his underground fighting arenas. Lokk talked with the Hutt on the man's behalf and reached an agreement. In exchange for sparing his life, the man would work part time for the Hutt repairing the damage the fighters and patrons did to his arenas. Out of gratitude the man offered to teach him how to make simple repairs to many technological devices for a price, a deal that Lok took, knowing that refurbished ship parts brought quite a descent price compared to non-functioning components. He even managed to recondition an old M1 droid, though he couldn't find anyone willing to pay much for it. He kept it at home, letting it do the cleaning that he didn't like doing.
When a local rivalry between two Hutts heated up, he started studying medicine, knowing that soon their would be a huge demand for many medicines. He learned to craft many medical supplies which functioned well enough, though they weren't up to the standards of the local hospitals. Made from local chemicals and organics, he sold them to both sides, and used his skills as a negotiator to keep either side from caring that he was essentially double-dealing.
One day a ship landed at a nearby landing pad carrying a Jedi Knight, Atton Rand. The Knight saw how skillfully he manipulated the situation when he was dealing with a bar patron that had run up a substantial tab from drinking too much Juma Juice, and wondered if the boy might have been unknowingly manipulating them through the force. He tested the boy, paying him a few credits for his trouble, and found that the boy had a somewhat impressive strength in the force. He asked if the boy would accompany him back to Dantooine as a Jedi initiate. Lokk agreed, realizing that the ability to use the Force would open up whole new worlds to him and, at the very least, would aid him in his negotiations.

Equipment/possessions: Repair parts, a few Droid components, Computer spikes, Med packs, Antidote packs, over 1000 credits, Vibroblade (w/ ion cell).

Force Power(s): Mind trick: Can make people, especially the weak willed, accept simple things. The more it goes against their view and beliefs, the harder it is to manipulate them.

Strengths: He has a strong will, making his abilities stronger, and he is able to find compromise is almost every situation. He is a skilled trader, and knows a little about anything of value, letting him find things that are rare.

Weaknesses: Bad with a lightsaber and combat in general. He is often forced to runaway from dangerous situations, and doesn't return until he either has to or he believes he knows of a non-violent way out of the situation.

Name: Soraya Reem
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Age: 18
Appearance: Slender, beautiful, fair skin, rosy cheeks, pink lips, long brown hair, hazel eyes. She usually dresses in the simple attire of the Mandalorian people, wearing pants, shirts, tunics, and dresses often white in color. Though she has a wardrobe she may choose blue, pink, red, purple, green, and yellow for formal situations. She dresses on rare occasion, and typically be found wearing her white cloak over her Mandalorian armor in keeping with traditions of her people. She doesn't always wear her helmet unless on missions.



Personality: Kind, caring, and respectful of others--Soraya has gained a significant amount of intelligence over the years due to her love of knowledge, providing her with an amazing vocabulary, active imagination, and an open mind. She is very confident and outspoken in her opinions, and seldom likes being told what to do. Despite all this, she does not have very many friends due to her smarts and being a free thinker. Soraya isn't concerned about hers or other's appearances, and is able to look past how people appear and into their hearts. Soraya is somewhat an independent spirit and refuses to be mistreated, undermined, humiliated, demeaned or controlled by any man. However, Soraya willingly listens to, looks up to and admires her father and master. She is quite obstinate when it comes to stating her points, upholding her opinions, and maintaining her ideas. She frequently dreams about a life of adventure and romance, not realizing that sometimes adventures might take a turn for the worst. Soraya realizes that having dreams is great, but sometimes you need to look beyond them and find what you're truly looking for.

Backstory/History: Soraya never knew her real parents. They were killed aboard a starship when pirates attacked, she was rescued by an old Mandalorian who took her into his clan. Mandalore rich with forests became the only home Soraya knew. Soraya grew up in a small farming village up north near the Dark Forest in the clan controled controlled province of Reem. She learned the language and culture of the Mandalorian people. At three years old Soraya was introduced to Shuk, a strill pup that became her responsibility. The two grew up together. Her adopted father taught her how to defend herself and trained her to be strong. At the age of eight she began training in military and survival skills; also how to hunt, fish, shoot, and fight. Soraya learned loyalty to Clan Reem, discipline, courage, and respect for her bew heritage. Soraya always worked close with her father on missions and she grew a strong bond with him, teaching her how to be a proficient warrior. He trained her to be disciplined, physically and mentally tough. When she was thirteen, she passed the trial of the verd'goten, a test of acquired skills in fighting and surviving in tradtition of the Mandalorian rite of passage. Soraya loved her father, but she had dreams of being something more than a mercenary's daughter. She would spend her free nights in the village library reading about planets and places she had never traveled, she loved listening to stories of her father's adventures.

After a dangerous job, her father never returned after meeting a contact on the Bog moon of Bogden. Following her senses Soraya pursued after him alone and found him trapped by the moon's ruler. After much negotiation the king agreed to release her old father on one condition: that she must remain his personal slave. She agreed, and began a life filled with sadness until a Jedi came to her rescue after raiding the kingdom. Before suspending judgment on her captor, Soraya surprised the Jedi by defending the king. The king never harmed her and treated her well, though he was a dark man. The Jedi recognized this selfless act worthy of recognition, he discovered her hidden talents of being gifted with the Force, something Soraya knew nothing of. He offered to train her in the ways of the Jedi. She agreed, though she would miss her father, she gave up her life for her dreams to be able to defend the helpless and serve others. Only sixteen years old Soraya dedicated her life to the ways of the Force.
