Appearance:
Sola has an intelligent and sharp look about her, she is slim but if one looks closely her body is toned with muscle. Her sharp features and piercing sapphire eyes make her look much older than she actually is. Her black hair, blue eyes, attractive features, and more lithe build is thanks to her human father. Her muscle, orange skin, natural tattoos and face markings, and horns are thanks to her zabrak mother. Sola often wears a brown and black tunic with a robe of a dark color over it.

The fabric around the arms and legs are tighter to her limbs, as she dislikes the unnecessary extra space.
Her lightsaber hilt looks like this. Its double bladed and purple.
Background/History:
Sola Jansen was born in 3989 BBY on a space station in the outer rim. Her mother was a Zabrak mercenary and her father...well no one knows who her father is. No one really knows much about her family. Her mother came stumbling into the Jedi citadel with a 3 year old Sola, told the Jedi Sola's name, then dropped dead right there in the hall. Much to the Jedi's relief, Sola turned out to be strong in the force and they started to care for her.
Sola grew up as an arrogant, charming kid who had a presence, even as a child, that commanded respect. Teaching her humility and love and the peaceful ways of the jedi was a difficult task indeed for the masters. She was the popular one among her peers, talented in the force and saber play and despite her arrogance and fearlessness, Sola had a soft and protective spot for her friends and peers. As she got older, Sola began to display more of an aptitude for physical combat and saber play than the force. Her instructors began to consider the possibility of instructing her in Juyo, the most ferocious and darkest of the lightsaber forms. There was much objection of course, Juyo was a style that teetered on the edge of darkness and would be detrimental to Sola's already aggressive personality.
The instructors pointed out that even though the young Zabrak had an aggressive and voracious personality, she had never lost control or gave in to her darker impulses and always showed honor and mercy to her sparring opponents. Additionally, this form could channel her darkness into a weapon of light and teach her discipline. After much debate, they agreed that she would be allowed to practice Form VII. Sola built her lightsaber during her Padawan trials and her creation only caused further doubt within the masters. A double-bladed saber, an infamous model used often by dark jedi, with a purple crystal. The masters then decided that only a weapons master could train the young padawan, to teach her the ways of physical and saber combat and to instill in her the discipline of the light.
They chose Master Molindi Kaiser, Jedi Weapons Master.
Master Kaiser was a veteran of The Great Sith War and Sola's instructors were confident that she could train Sola effectively.
Sola and Molindi took to each other immediately and launched right into training. And Sola loved every minute of it. The challenge, the style of fighting, the double bladed combat, Molindi's views on life and the order. She was refreshed by everything, she felt so free with her master, no restrictions of the uptight jedi instructors. And as the years passed, Sola thrived and became stronger. Even at age 16, she was being considered as one of the more skilled warriors within the order. She still had trouble with things such as humility and complete detachment, especially with such a passionate personality and way of life. It was as if the force sensed this and it made everyone in her presence feel a certain way. Intimidated, impressed, whatever it was, Sola commanded a respect simply by standing still.
But even through all this, she never lost her soft spot for her friends and the innocent. And while traveling with Molindi through the galaxy and seeing all walks of life, she began to feel an affection towards the citizens of the universe, which was only rivaled by her disdain of those who prey on the weak. She had developed a certain fondness and respect for soldiers and warriors of all types, especially those who protect their home and their people (and after a night of passion with one certain soldier, which Molindi swiftly found about and put a stop to, Sola's affection for them only increased.) And yet despite all this, against the many expectations of her many instructors, Sola never allowed her emotions to compromise her duty, however strong they might be.
Sola passed her trials and became a full fledged Jedi Knight and certified Guardian at the age of 19, just a month before her tale starts. Many were impressed, not many became knights this young, but of course they expected nothing less of the exceptional Sola Jansen. She's currently traveling to meditate on her success and to think before she is assigned a mission.
Personality:
Sola is not what you call a traditional Jedi. She loosely follows the code of the Jedi, as she feels it detaches them from the people they're sworn to protect. Many of Sola's views are heavily inspired by her master, Molindi Kaiser. She loves fitness and is interested in history. As a Jedi Guardian, her connection to the force is more connective and combative rather than ethereal and contemplative. She's developed a strong affection for people over the years, especially her fellow jedi and warriors, who she can relate to sometimes more than her masters. She has overwhelming disdain for those who prey on the weak, despite not understanding those who refuse to fight or simply won't will themselves to.
Sola has a certain presence which is amplified by the force. But even without the force, many would find her intimidating or impressive. Combined with her striking sharp features and beautiful face, Sola is truly a sight to behold. She is known throughout the order as an exceptionally skilled combatant and as one of the few Jedi who use Juyo and a double-bladed lightsaber. She has surprisingly good control over her emotions and is able to hide what she is feeling from most people. Thanks to Juyo she can channel all her negative energy into the fight and use her negative feelings as a tool for the light.
