--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Appearance:


Moryr’s appearance is like all Cathar very feline, her features generally smooth and lithe. She is athletic in build and her body is covered in a thin layer of fur which is a light shade of blue flecked with silvery sheens, generally an uncommon colour amongst her species. Her facial features are somewhat petite and occasionally her expression can be difficult to read, often her feelings hidden behind a somewhat stoic mask. Her eyes dominate her face, her feline iris and the deep orange colour piercingly clear in contrast to her complexion, often her gaze lingers and seems to be almost inscrutable in nature. Her smile can be somewhat unsettling too, her rather sharp looking fangs serving again to offset the more benign side of her appearance, especially if combined with the appearance of her retractable claws. Her hair is long and kept carefully groomed, the silvery-white sheen of her coat dominating the colour of her hair rather than the bluish tints seen elsewhere.

Background/History:
Moryr was born on the lush homeworld planet of her people, Cathar, which is located in the Outer Rim Territories. She lived a life of relative norm amongst her people, one of many siblings that resided in one of the colossal tree-cities that dominate the planet – born to a strong spiritual leader of her people. Though she has precious few memories of this time she looks fondly back on the time spent amongst her litter-mates and parents before it was discovered that she was force-sensitive and was sent as a hopeful to join the illustrious Jedi Order, leaving behind all that she had known to begin her training.

Raised as a youngling amongst the Jedi at the Temple on Coruscant she quickly distinguished herself as one of the more promising initiates before passing the initiate tests and progressing to the level of Padawan, ever eager to increase her skills and knowledge of both the force and the Jedi Order. She was intelligent, quick and followed instructions well. She eventually became a Padawan under the Jedi Knight Mudarr Mushig, another Cathar who was both many years her elder and also a very skilled Jedi in his own respect. Over several years the bond between the pair grew strong and her training progressed swiftly as the duo resolved a great number of small conflicts throughout the republic and Moryr grew into a more than capable Jedi under his apprenticeship. She excelled in both sabre mastery and in use of the force to the point to which she and her master both felt she would be ready to undertake the trails at what was considered a very young age to do so, however both through an unspoken agreement did not wish for their partnership to end and so simply continued to work as master and padawan for several years longer despite the relative plateau of her abilities. It was over this period that they both came to realise the true extent of their feelings for one another despite the relative age difference and unsuitability of such a romantic pairing. Despite this they both continued to work together, never acting upon the feelings other than to share in each other’s companies for as long as they could and share in a mutual desire to better the galaxy. It was through the immensely positive results they obtained in their missions and the fact that they in no way consummated their feelings for one another that they were able to convince themselves that they were not breaking the Jedi code and could still do much good together, a fact they were all too aware many other members of the order would not agree with.

This lasted up until several weeks ago, upon their return to Coruscant they were directly questioned about the progression of her training and so Mudarr could no longer deny the truth of her progression and admitted that she was more than ready for the trails. The Council sensed that there was more to this deception than the pair offered on the surface and so immediately split them up before interrogating them more closely on the nature of their bond and missions together. The Council’s initial anger and disappointment subsided after it become clear that the pair had not acted upon their feelings in any way, deciding that Moryr would be allowed to continue her training providing she did not work with Mudarr again in the future (they were aware of the life-long bonds that Cathar often formed, mating for life and so were not overly concerned about another such incident happening again in the future). She passed her trails despite the sorrow that she felt knowing that she would no longer be able to travel and learn from Mudarr, though respected in the council’s decision and vowed to them she would not deviate from the teachings of the order again, no matter how slight or seemingly harmless she considered it may be.

Personality:
Moryr naturally has an inquisitive and wandering personality, sometimes finding it difficult to understand the necessity for restraint or the more restricting of the rules - that being said this aspect of her personality was quickly refined by her Jedi teachers and she has developed with a steadfast respect for the rules and abides by them to the letter in practically every regard, even if within she still finds herself questioning the reasoning behind certain decisions. Her inquisitive nature fuelled a fierce desire for learning and experiences that has thus far only been tempered only by the huge amount of suffering she has so far encountered in her travels, having developed quite the dislike for all evil and cruelty and those who deal in them.

Moryr prefers to act as an agent of the Jedi resolving disputes with little other than the force and her sharp tongue, finding many situations can be fixed with other little than a fair compromise or quick witted plan reinforced by her abilities. That being said however she certainly does not shy away from the use of her lightsaber when necessary and enjoys the physical prowess and high level of proficiency she has accomplished in her training with Mudarr, whom himself is a master duellist.

Moryr until very recently was certain in her every action, finding her hand driven as if by the force itself, the wisest course of action always presenting itself to her keen eyes. Since her parting with her master Mudarr though she has found her confidence somewhat eroded and has found her previous zeal and ambitions quite diminished – though she is attempting to take these feelings within her stride.
She is fond of social situations, more than happy to take part in some gathering or event, even if this usually is simply a means to an end during a mission. Happy to make a joke or keep her general dealings with others as pleasant and uplifting as possible, she tends to avoid darker moods where able due to a slight tendency to dwell on the darkness that seems to reside within so many individuals, at the worst of times causing her to question the meaning behind many things and her general purpose. That said she finds strength in the Jedi code and will not shirk away from asking a more experienced member of the order to explain things to her, relaying on the guidance of those more experienced than she is when necessary.

Currently she finds herself out of her usual comfort zone entirely, for the last several years she has known nothing beyond the constant companionship of Mudarr and finding herself without her mentor has left her stumbling for purpose and without direct guidance.

Moryr has little reputation, having spent the majority of her years away from many of her peers. That being said she until recently was known amongst the council as a very promising student under a very promising master, however such thoughts and feelings are now much more conflicted. Few in the council supported harsher punishments for the pair, but the majority were willing to overlook their mistakes in light of their successes. She now sits in a position that entails her actions being watched closely, and she is more than sure the council will take a very measured action in her next mission.
Moryr can be naive at times, seeking the best in people and situations where she can. She wants to believe in the innate goodness of life, however at the worst of times she struggles with this belief and can be prone to allowing others take advantage of her. That being said if such a situation were to arise and she to discover she had been manipulated for any less than upstanding purpose her response would need to be carefully measured less she lose herself within her emotions and feelings.

Altogether she has generally a well-rounded feeling of herself and what she wants, however in truth this feeling only extends so far and there is still much within the young Jedi that remains undecided, even moreso with recent events.

Moryr speaks several languages, including but not limited to Galactic basic, Binary, Huttese ,Cathar, Sullustes and Twi'leki. Each language she has picked up the basics quickly amongst her missions before studying them further, finding she has somewhat an affinity for languages and a thirst to learn more.

At the moment her main goal is to find her path amongst the Jedi, weather she will continue to act as an agent amongst the stars or remain on Coruscant amongst the archives she does not know.

Skills/Abilities:

Moryr has yet to specialise within her training, unable and unwilling to focus on one sole element, though thus far she is leaning towards the councillor route. This has led her to have a broad if not somewhat limited level of skill with both the force and her lightsaber, though her natural affinity with the force and athleticism seems to allow her a greater degree of duelling skill than is considered average for such a new Jedi Knight and she frequently could hold her own against Mudarr.

Her abilities outside of the Jedi skillset are very limited, her skills with computers and electronics being extremely lacking. Also she knows practically nothing about engineering or piloting a space vessel and has no intention to learn such skills, feeling that her focus should be solely on the ways of the force.
Moryr is skilled in the majority of force powers with the notable exception of healing abilities, for some reason the skill always evading her much to her frustration. She is very skilled in using the force to dominate the minds of weaker individuals and even sometimes those with stronger minds, though she uses this sparingly knowing that the ability to control another’s mind does not come lightly no matter the situation. She is proficient in many of the more ‘passive’ force abilities, especially those that assist her when in combat such as using Force Aura, Force Valor and Burst of Speed when the occasion calls for it.

Offensively she is proficient in Stun and both Force push and pull, though often she instead uses her more passive abilities augmented with her lightsaber when the need for combat arises. She fights defensively more so than aggressively though always keeps her true purpose and objective clear in mind, not letting the heat of battle draw her into an unnecessary or prolonged fight where possible. That being said she does enjoy the thrilling feelings that accompany battle and the righteousness that comes with striking down the enemies of the Jedi, something she tries to keep as minimal as possible.
