Appearance:


Iri has the notable appearance of her people, her blue skin and yellow eyes as well as gold markings on her face make her easily identifiable as a Pantoran. Her features are smooth and somewhat petite, often giving her face the expression of someone who is kind, innocent and perhaps naive, something that she uses to her advantage quite often. Her hair is dark violet and at a length just past her shoulders that somewhat overtakes her lean and athletic build, a build that she tries to keep thanks to it allowing her to be fast and agile. Her attire consists of a beige tunic with a dark brown robe over it, something that can make her body appear smaller than it really is.

Background/History:

Iri was born on Pantora, her parents worked in politics, hoping to become a senator and ambassador to help aid their people. During a visit to Alderaan for trade negotiations, Iri had been kidnapped and a ransom was placed to her parents which they quickly paid to get their daughter back, but when the time came for them to retrieve her, the person who had kidnapped her had sold her to the hutts already and ran off with the ransom; she was searched for to no avail.

Over the next few years she spent her life in servitude, going from master to master as she was constantly bought and sold by them, something that she severely hated and on multiple occasions planned escape with other slaves, but those never really worked out, at least for her. They would either be caught and she would take the blame so others did not have to suffer or she would help them escape first and then was recaptured before she could escape herself.

As more time passed, Iri's hope for escape dwindled and her spirit had been broken, her escape attempts slowed down until she was the perfect obedient slave that all of her masters had wanted from her but could never produce results save for the last one that purchased her. Iri was in her cage one night when a group of troopers along with a Jedi broke into the palace, sent in to rescue the other slaves as well as her; the Republic knew about the slavery, but they could do nothing about it officially since they did not control the planet she was on.

It seemed to be going well at first, she and the other slaves seemed like they were going to escape, however the palace guards surprised them and began to attack the Republic troops, cutting Iri off from the other slaves that were starting to be put on a transport ship; the Jedi hastily went into action, defending the troops as they got them onto the transport. Iri's hope started to fade once more however when some of the palace guards started to use shock whips on the Jedi, he easily avoided them at first, but they eventually overwhelmed him and shocked him to where he collapsed. She watched as they got their vibroswords out, ready to finish off the Jedi, she couldn't watch that happen, she knew if he died, she might not ever get out of there and extended her arms out as they were about to kill him, a burst of the force coming out and knocking away all the guards.

The troopers helped the Jedi up and then got him as well as Iri onto the transport, speedily leaving off the planet and back to Coruscant. The Jedi she'd saved saw the potential, she had to become a great Jedi and requested that she be trained, she was considered too old to begin her training, but the Jedi did make exceptions and the Jedi, Alidar Snitri, made a strong case, which the council eventually agreed with and allowed her to be trained as a Jedi.

Her training progressed exceptionally quick on Dantooine, her lightsaber prowess had a strong impression on many of the masters on the planet and though many would have thought her background would make it difficult for her to follow the rules and training of the Jedi, she adapted to it rather well. Eventually through years of training and missions with her master, she was allowed to begin her trials, passing them all and was rewarded with the rank of Jedi Knight and is now ready to fully serve the Jedi Order.

Personality:

Iri is laid back when it comes to many things for the most part, she is very kindhearted though she isn't afraid to speak out against something she doesn't agree with, but she tries to get along with everyone for the most part and she's real easy to talk to. She tries for the most part to follow the code of the Jedi, the order saved her and she wants to return that kindness by being what the order feels she should be among their ranks.

She enjoys spending her free time relaxing outside, sparring in the training room or catch up on her light reading. Whilst she doesn't have many dislikes, her largest one is slavers, growing up as a slave, she understood how others who were captured felt and if some are mentioned or are spotted by her, she can become very angry towards, even sometimes struggling to not immediately attack them and free the slaves that they have with them.

With her incredible lightsaber skills, she chose to go for the sentinel path of the Jedi, it was a balanced path that focused on both the force as well as lightsaber combat and she felt that was what was meant for her.

Iri has a pretty good sense of humor for the most the part, she can partake in many jokes and teasing, though she can become a bit more quite and shut down should slavery be joked about, she won't lambast someone for joking about it, she knows there are different senses of humor, but she'll refuse to be apart of it herself.

Iri's emotional state can be described as calm and peaceful, she tends to go with the flow a lot of the time, always feeling the need to examine the force and potential outcomes before she takes action, something her master taught her very well. However that can change very quickly should she come across slavers or if slaves are endangered and will throw caution to the wind to try and save as well as kill the ones who are responsible for all of it.

Her reputation is moderate, many in the order know who she is because of the missions she's went on as well as how effective she is with using her lightsaber, in addition, many known about her past as a slave and her opinions on the matter, including many of the Jedi Masters who see great potential in her to be one of the best Jedi the order has. Many of the learners who have not received a master yet are hoping that she'll select one of them to begin their training, though she has yet to take on her first apprentice, she is considering it.

Iri is benevolent and caring, though she can be quite reckless when it comes to slavers, she feels that they are less than anything in the galaxy and deserve a fate such as slaves have had or much worse such as death and often struggles to control herself when it come to the people described before, but she does her best to remember the code and calm herself, though it isn't easy.

Iri walks a fine line when it comes to her morals, she believes that everyone should be protected by the Jedi if they need it, however she is not against people being killed, even if they are unarmed, mostly criminals really, she feels that if they did a serious crime such as murder or slavery, they'll do it again when they get released and a blight like that shouldn't be left alive in the world.

Iri's known languages are, Basic, Binary, Togruti, Twi'leki, Huttese, and Mando'a, many of these languages she learned thanks to her years as a slave, the only ones she chose to learn of her own accord being Togruti and Mando'a.

Iri's main focus at the moment is to become a Jedi Master and obtain a position on the Jedi Council as well as take on an apprentice of her own, her secondary goal, though quite ambitious and almost impossible on a galatic scale, is to try and abolish slavery on all the systems that still have slaver laws.

Iri seeks to one day find and be reunited with her parents.

Skills/Abilities:

Iri is substantially skilled two lightsabers, her path being that of the Jedi sentinel, her best forms are Djem So as well as Niman, the latter she's able to use thanks to her modified lightsabers which can connect at the base of the hilts to form a double-bladed lightsaber. In addition to that, she's fairly skilled with the force, about on average to above with most force users, easily able to use the force to manipulate objects or to influence people to do what she wants, making sure to not abuse the latter.

When it comes to abilities outside of the Jedi, they're somewhat limited, she's only really good with computers and even then there are probably others who can work faster and better than she can on one, but if there's no one else around, she can get the job done in a timely manner. The thing she's most proficiet with is anything that has a blade, so lightsabers, vibroblades and swords, knives, but when it comes to blasters, her aim is terrible, mostly being because she hardly ever uses them and feels that the only thing a Jedi should use is what defines them.

Iri can use telepathy, such as force push and pull quite easily, as well as mind manipulation to get others to do what she wants. Her combat style with the force is fairly aggressive, mostly thanks to her past and whilst she hasn't tried to search for teachings, she has dabbled in one force ability which is force choke and that was used only on rare occasions when it involved slavers, something her master was quick to try and get her to avoid.

Her combat style is balanced-aggressive, having chosen more aggressive forms such as Djem So, she feels that with the path of the sentinel, Jedi like her should be a little more focused on aggressive attacks, but not so much so that they forget to keep up some of a defense, it works for her for the most part so she sees nothing wrong with a more confrontational style.
