Lo considers herself pretty average in looks for her race. She is a young Bothan and she looks like a younger version of the adults, her body having an athletic build. Her height is about 5’1”, the tallest she will likely ever get. A long, canine-like snout dips from her face with neatly trimmed beard along her chin and jawline. Her ears are long and end at a narrow tip. Long brown fur flows around her head, tied back into a ponytail at the bottom of her neckline. Her Padawan braid dangles at the right side of her face and ending just underneath the jaw. The same colored fur covers her body in a shorter fashion. It has a tendency to betray her emotional state by flattening, bristling or puffing out. She has eyes as green as the grass on a perfect day.
Her usual garments are the traditional padawan uniform in a tan and brown color. This consists of the inner tunic, tabard, sash, belt, trousers and boots. Nothing really fancy and appear have some wear and tear.

Talent
Force Healing- While at H’Ratth, Lo learned she had a natural knack for healing. At this small display of talent, the Jedi instructors felt it was a skill worth developing for her. Her force healing is at a basic level and requires heavy concentration to maintain it. With education and experience, it could become a valuable skill for her.
Force Sense- Lo is sensitive to changes in the world around her. She is quick to pick up on danger aimed at her and noted to react much sooner than her peers. With time, this could turn into an ability to sense other force users.

Basic
Training Shii-Cho Ataru
Martial Arts- This is one of her weaker skill sets compared to her Force abilities. While she has the stamina and ability to fight, she lacks confidence in it. This affects her assertiveness in defending her position and she second-guesses her instinct. Mistakes happen to leave her open to counters, disarms, and more in combat.
Survival Skills- The best thing that Lo got out of these lessons were what herbs and plants would heal. This was the main reason she actually developed an interest in it and it stuck in her head. Now she can survive in nearly any environment for long periods of time.
Basics of Republic History- Lo finds it hard to recall her lessons over Republic history. It wasn’t the fact she didn’t pay attention, but she held no interest in it. At least, she got a general idea that the Republic was worth protecting and assisting.
Talent
Basics in Speeders and Starship piloting (including navigation) - She took to the basics in speeders and starship piloting well. Not only did she love the adrenaline rush and wind in her fur, but she was also good at it.
Medical Knowledge- Due to H’Ratth’s specialty in Healing, Lo has gained basic knowledge and experience in how to treat others. This is one of the lessons that Lo gravitated toward and enjoyed learning about. Seeing this, a few instructors encouraged and helped develop her basics. This included natural healing and with the force.
Other
High Stamina/Energy- Like many youngsters, Lo has high levels of energy and gives everything her all. This can lead to good and bad things.

Personal biography.
Report from H’Ratth Jedi, Hyrus Thorne:
Due to Lo Lya'Tre's young age, I'm going to sit in and retell what we've discovered of her history.
*clears throat before he begins*
Hosk and Asy Lya’Tre betrothed at an early age. Their clans were allies within bothawai politics, enabling them to grow up together. Naturally, they developed a mutual love between them. This pleased both clans as it strengthens their alliance. About three years later, Lo was born during 3653 BBY. She was a strong, healthy example of her race. It made both of them proud.
As the war drew on, Hosk found himself wanting to become involved. He contacted SIS and began to work undercover. Over the next few years, they established his cover in the Empire. The SIS records showed Hosk had been employed in the sphere of Military Strategy. From there, he gradually rose through the ranks. Whenever he could, he fed intel back to SIS. However, an unknown source leaked information to the Empire. When they suspected his treason, he fled. Realizing his end was near, Hosk managed to send a message to his wife.
Meanwhile, during his time in the Empire, Asy had raised their daughter on Toydaria. A planet in Hutt Space filled with temperate forests and swamps. Despite its location, the planet was uneventful. It was a neutral place in the political storm between the Republic and Empire. Ays wanted to remain as isolated from the war as possible despite her husband choosing otherwise.
When Ays received Hosk’s last message, she feared the Empire would dig into her husband's travel logs. He made a few secretive trips to the planet in order to keep in contact with his family. She immediately contacted the only ally she knew from her husband's past. A Jedi named Master Dominik Rothul. If anyone could help her, she hoped he would.
As expected, the Empire was already tracking Hosk’s activity. They found the trips made to Toydaria. A team was gathered and sent to investigate, hoping to root out more SIS agents there.
Master Rothul and his Padawan arrived first, entering Ays’ home. She began to explain what happened to Hosk as they figured out her options. While playing with his Padawan, Lo got angry. She used telekinesis and threw a block at Padawan Evin’s head. Ays’s figure stiffened when her daughter showed her force sensitivity. Dominik attempted to convince her what was best for both of them. Then the Jedi sensed a disturbance in the force. A young Sith apprentice with a large squadron approached the small, modest house.
When the conflict broke out, Lo became scared and took off into the forest. Ays shot after Lo. When the two Jedi found them, Lo struggled against an Imperial trooper. It is unclear if they knew she was force sensitive, but her fate with the Empire wouldn't be good.
Again, Dominik and Evin came to the rescue dispatching those who threatened her. When the fighting died down, any family left to Lo was gone. Her mother had been shot before the fight broke out. The child shifted away from the master while she cried on her mother’s dead body. Master Rothul and Evin finally took her to H’Ratth.
Lo took some time to adjust to the Jedi life. Whenever she asked about her parents, we would tell her they were now one with the force. Being told this for some time healed her sorrow. She knew that they would always be with her. During the first few years, Lo began her path on how to become a Jedi. She learned to cooperate, communicate, and meditate alongside other initiates. She grew to see us as a family. When she wasn't connecting with other initiates or working hard at her lessons, she seemed to enjoy exploring her new home. She soon learned practical lessons, martial arts, and low power saber practice. Lo seemed to excel at predicting the shots coming in at her, but her saber skills needed improvement.
Around 10, she leaned into Ataru. She seemed to have boundless energy for the former making it a good choice for her. It was also around this stage that Lo showed her desire to help and treat patients. It started off small with changing bed sheets or bring food. It progressed into helping in changing bandages, studying herbs and brightening patients' moods. We encouraged to develop this trait to care for other over herself. During her free time, she developed hobbies from her lessons. This ranged from speeder bike races to restocking our supply with fresh flowers or herbs.
The Initiate trials were something she grew anxious about at the age of 13. Lo worried she might fail and never make it to padawan, a fact we felt wasn’t true. She passed her wisdom trial easily. She had a good understanding and a heartfelt belief in the code for which the Jedi stood for. I was very pleased, being the instructor on the lesson. I tried not to give nothing away. Her trial of skill was much harder. Mostly she struggled to recall where all the pieces went. Her final trial required that she resolve a dispute between two individuals. One was a merchant and the other a man accused of theft. She nearly failed this one because she took so long to brave speaking to either of them. When she did, she still had her struggles. She said what she thought rather than thinking bout it first. Eventually, she discovered the real thief was a small lizard-like monkey creature. He had timed his crime at the right moment.
Once her trials finally finished, we contacted Master Rothul and now she is to be picked up soon.
Additional Information
Padawan Years
Ryloth Files, 6 ATC 6 After picking up Lo at the Tython temple, Master Rothul and her headed to Ryloth for humanity help. A hard hit and suffering people, the introduction with the Twi'leks came off rather rocky. It seemed slavers had been collecting whole villages and leaving without a trace. Put on the case, Dom and Lo learned too late they were using chemical warfare. Imprisoned, the slavers decided to contact the Sith and inform them about the Jedi. During this time, Lo managed to escape and free the other Twi'Lek who in return helped her free her master.
With the head slaver killed and their escape, it seemed the tensions on Ryloth had just begun.
With this understanding, the locals and Jedi began to prepare. They built an underground village and united most of the villages in alliance. Naturally conflicts happened. During an assault on a decoy village on the surface, the underground tunnels exploded. It was due to unstable crystals. It forced Dominik to sacrifice himself to protect his allies. With Lo's connection, she managed to realize he still lived and lead the Twi'lek to retrieve him. For several weeks, she nursed him back to health.
His absence forced Lo to take up more responsibilities and trust with the natives. With the Sith starting to stir and her master recovering, things are about to get more stressful. This she can sense.
Curious – When it comes to new ideas, Jaslyn isn’t interested in brooding – she wants to go out and experience things, and don’t hesitate to step out of their comfort zones to do so. Jaclyn is imaginative and open-minded, seeing all things as part of a big, mysterious puzzle called life.
Observant – Jaslyn believes that there are no irrelevant actions, that every shift in sentiment, every move and every idea is part of something bigger. To satisfy her curiosity, Jaslyn tries to notice all of these things, and to never miss a moment.
Energetic and Enthusiastic – As she observes, forming new connections and ideas, Jaslyn won’t hold her tongue – she’s excited about her findings, and shares them with anyone who’ll listen. This infectious enthusiasm has the dual benefit of giving Jaslyn a chance to make more social connections, and of giving her a new source of information and experience, as she fits her new friends’ opinions into her existing ideas.
Excellent Communicators – It’s a good thing that Jaslyn has such strong people skills, or she’d never express these ideas. Jaslyn enjoys both small talk and deep, meaningful conversations, which are just two sides of the same coin for her, and is adept at steering conversations towards her desired subjects in ways that feel completely natural and unforced.
Know How to Relax – It’s not all “nature of the cosmos” discussions with Jaslyn – people with this personality type know that sometimes, nothing is as important as simply having fun and experiencing life’s joys. That Intuitive trait lets Jaslyn know that it’s time to shake things up, and these wild bursts of enthusiastic energy can surprise even her closest friends.
Very Popular and Friendly – All this adaptability and spontaneity comes together to form a person who is approachable, interesting and exciting, with a cooperative and altruistic spirit and friendly, empathetic disposition. Jaslyn gets along with pretty much everyone, and her circles of friends stretch far and wide.
Weaknesses
Poor Practical Skills – When it comes to conceiving ideas and starting projects, especially involving other people, Jaslyn has exceptional talent. Unfortunately her skill with upkeep, administration, and follow-through on those projects struggles. Without more hands-on people to help push day-to-day things along, Jaslyn’ ideas are likely to remain just that – ideas.
Find it Difficult to Focus – Jaslyn is a natural explorer of interpersonal connections and philosophy, but this backfires when what needs to be done is that report sitting right in front of them. It’s hard for Jaslyn to maintain interest as tasks drift towards routine, administrative matters, and away from broader concepts.
Overthink Things – Jaslyn doesn't take things at face value – she looks for underlying motives in even the simplest things. It’s not uncommon for Jaslyn to lose a bit of sleep asking herself why someone did what they did, what it might mean, and what to do about it.
Get Stressed Easily – All this overthinking isn’t just for her own benefit – Jaslyn, especially with her Empathy, is very sensitive, and cares deeply about others’ feelings. A consequence of her popularity is that others often look to them for guidance and help, which takes time, and it’s easy to see why Jaslyn sometimes gets overwhelmed, especially when she can’t say yes to every request.
Highly Emotional – While emotional expression is healthy and natural, with Jaslyn even viewing it as a core part of her identity, it can come out strongly enough to cause problems for her. Particularly when under stress, criticism or conflict, Jaslyn can experience emotional bursts that are counter-productive at best.
Independent to a Fault – Jaslyn loathes being micromanaged and restrained by heavy-handed rules – she wants to be seen as a highly independent master of her own fate, even possessors of an altruistic wisdom that goes beyond draconian law. The challenge for Jaslyn is that she lives in a world of checks and balances, a pill she is not happy to swallow.
Coppery red hair is the first thing you notice about Jaslyn, that and her height. Coppery red, thick and wavy to the middle of her back. She pulls it up or braids it most of the time save for her Padawan braid. She is five feet ten inches or 177.8 centimeters. She has a complexion that is most often described as cream and cinnamon, or pale and freckled. She has light gray eyes that change slightly depending on what mood she is in. Her teeth are even and white. Her lips are a neat cupids bow a few shades pinker than her skin tone. She is of an average fit figure, toned lean muscle, and at 19 could not be mistaken for a boy as she used to before puberty. She is quite apparently female with an hourglass shape.

Personal biography.
Jaslyn Dayne, was born on Coruscant. Mother Gina Starr Dayne and father Jor Dayne I have no memory of them. Earliest memory is of the view of stars through the window in a shuttle seated on someone’s lap. I couldn’t have been more than three. I was taken into the Temple Jedha which would be my home till about the age of seven. I was then moved to the Temple on Coruscant and that has been my home for about twelve years now. I am told that I developed an attachment that was detrimental. We have since had no contact. I can vaguely remember him but details escape me.
In the Coursant Temple I became fascinated with the Saberstaff and dual wielding two lightsabers and pushed myself to study them. I can remember seeing a Knight, who would later be my Master, going through her forms and I was determined to use the Saberstaff as well.
I was very drawn to Soresu, Form III The Way of The Mynock and Ataru, Form IV The Way of the Hawk Bat and practiced daily and began to personalize them so that I could use a Saberstaff and dual wielding in both forms. Modifications to Form I, III and IV include my inclusion of Jar’Kai. I prefer using Sun Djem as a disarming attack versus a killing blow. I am proficient in Sokan and am working on Telekinetic Lightsaber Combat. I have interests in honing my Force talents as well as Form III and IV.
I feel my most at peace when reflecting on my training and allowing the Force to guide my reflection of the days events. I find that this method of reflection isn't common and have mostly kept things to myself on the subject.
Merrian took me under her wing when I was nine just after my Padawan Trials were completed and have been with her for ten years. I believe she chose me because of my favored weaponry and my compassion. She may have other reasons but I have had no need to ask and find that acceptance, while a little hard to swallow at times, serves me far better than fighting the inevitable.
I am aware that in the near future that I shall undergo the Knight Trials. I would like to have a better grasp of my talents beforehand but I wouldn't be surprised if they started soon.
I have learned many things but I find that the most important is that if we search for it the knowledge to help anyone is there to be used. You just have to look hard enough.
Vasani can be described as an exotic beauty by a large portion of the galaxy. Beautiful in every right by conventional standards, the girl is about 5' 5" in height, with an extremely athletic body. One which she earned through none other than spending her earlier life dancing for the amusement of Krembal's patrons. Though she has a flexible build and athletic body, the girl does have rather pleasant curves in the right places to keep the eye on her. Her orange eyes are piercing, something many find attractive. Though these eyes are also windows into her soul, as one can usually tell how the girl feels at any given point by simply peering into her eyes. Her body is covered in black sith tattoos, standing out against her red skin and the only reminder of being the daughter of a sith. Her outfit typically consists of clothing which fits her form and complements her appearance. Both because she likes to look good, and simply because it is sometimes easier to move in such clothing.

To preface the girl’s talents and skills within the force, it should be noted that Vasani has quite a strong natural connection to the force, though she has largely been untrained.

Vasani'Brinme was the firstborn of the two daughters of Sith Lord Atroxa and born on the imperial world of Korriban. Born a mere few seconds before her twin sibling, the girl was not long for life among her mother and her sister. As when the two were still young, just after they had received their sith tattoos like their mother, they were tested for their force sensitivity. Upon finding that the older of the two was not force sensitive to any degree, the child was quickly sold into slavery by her mother. The Sith Lord chose to sell her daughter outside of the empire in part for two reasons, the first being that the sale to the hutt outside of the empire enacted a favor which she needed. The second being that the Sith Lord did not much want the shame of having a non-force sensitive daughter to be known. Therefore, after the sale in secret to the hutt Atroxa passed off a lie that her young child had died early in her life. This, along with the favor being the removal of an inconvenient imperial encroaching on Atroxa's political territory by Krembal was what finalized the decision to sell to Krembal. So Brin was sold to Krembal, a crimelord based out of Nar Shaddaa who offered a rather good price for an investment that he knew would later come to bring him rather good profits. With that deal set in stone, the daughter was soon send off towards her knew life as a slave under Krembal the Hutt. Here it was ordained that she would be raised and that her days would be forever in service to her new owner, the sole being in charge of her life.
Growing up in a Hutt's grasp was not exactly the most pleasant of childhoods. Her early years were spent learning how to speak various languages to assist in translating for the hutt, as well as learning how to be his personal server. She was tasked with ensuring his cup was never empty, and that he always had gorgs stocked that he could eat whenever he particularly pleased. It did not take the girl long to pick up on the various languages and tasks that she was assigned. During this time, she was also continually manipulated to be steered away from anything that could begin to resemble free will. The lessons on how to perform as a dancer for the hutt started to begin during these formative years of her life. As she grew older, more attractive and more skilled as a dancer the girl quickly became a favored possession of Krembal. For she was what most of his patrons considered to be an exotic beauty, and would work as something as a status symbol for the hutt. So she was relegated to dancing, and having a place next to the hutt on his dais. As such, she soon also took up translating the languages she knew for the hutt and soon became a face that most of his regular clients had come to know well.
At around 14, Vasani started to realize that not everything she was experiencing was exactly... something that she liked. When asking about the freedom that she had observed patrons coming and going with, she was quickly informed that such was not her life. In response to her questioning, Krembal had the girl beaten and punished for daring to ask such questions. Over time, she slowly started to realize that the world she had somehow come to accept was falling apart and see was starting to see the ugly truth. Where once she had thought she was seen as a servant, something to appease a lord, she started to see that she was property. Of value along the same lines a rigged slot machine that ensured money for the hutt was of value. A deep rooted hatred started to grow within the girl as she started to crave an ending to this life. To the fear, pain, and the treatment she was starting to realize was not an aspect of life she wanted to simply accept. Instead a hunger for the freedom she saw others having started to grow within herself. A desire to escape the shackles that held her down now.
At age 16-17, the young twi'lek started to act out against the hutt, against what most would consider to being better judgment. Desperately grasping for chances that might result in her release, as she started to figure that perhaps if she was no longer his favorite she would be moved away from the creature that she found so vile. Yet this proved to not be the case, as the hutt decided to give her a little freedom to see if that would inspire the girl to be a bit more loyal to him. Of course, this quickly resulted in the slave attempting to escape from the casino before being stopped at one of the main entrances by one of Krembal's enforcer droids. From here, he had her brought back and kept at his side at all times. On top of that, she was drugged with some of his own supply to ensure that she stayed complacent. It was also a punishment he felt the girl would hate, and one he was certain would teach her a lesson. This treatment went on for nearly a year until she had just turned 18, and the hutt finally felt she had learned her lesson. As after the treatment, she seemed to be behaving and acting exactly as he had wanted her to be. Although in reality, the young slave was searching for the next opening that would take her away from this vile creature.
The chance came only a matter of months later, at the grand auction the Hutt held in his casino. During the auction, while many of his guards were occupied with those attending, a rival sent a squad of Mandalorians into the casino with the intention of burning it to the ground. In the chaos that immediately followed, along with the outbreak of a fight between Jedi and Sith in the casino, Vasani seized her chance for escape. As blasters fired and the chaos grew, the slave girl managed to grab a heavy blaster pistol off one of the fallen guards. She used this chance to turn on her former owner, finding out exactly how many shots it took to kill a hutt. Then she fled the casino, stealing a Striker-Class Starfighter left behind by a Bounty-Hunter on the strike team sent in who had not survived. Not long after, the girl was intercepted by a gang of pirates, who she convinced to take her in as part of their crew. As the girl had lied about her skills in the starfighter. Through much studying and time in her quarters spent browsing the holonet, she learned the basics of how to fly. Then through actual experience with the crew, she honed her skills to be quite adept.
Eventually, her crew had a run-in with a Jedi going about the Galaxy. Airus was the Knight’s name, and he recognized the young girl from the casino. The Jedi managed to buy the young Twi’lek out of her contract, and helped her get away from the pirates and back to the Jedi. Here she stayed for about a year, excelling in the training as a young student. It was discovered she had a strong natural connection to the force. Though her martial skills lacked, the girl managed to excel enough that it was decided she would be sent on her way to learn as a padawan. Sent to Ryloth, her skills in a fighter were not forgotten as she was tasked with running escort on a supply mission. Then using that very escort mission to get to the surface and meet her new master...
Cora stands about 5 feet 5 inches (1.65 meters) tall in bare feet which if she can get away with it she is barefoot. She is the definition of gamine and could easily pass for a boy. Her height and small frame often gets her mixed up with Padawans. She has no freckles, but has pale skin that has no blemishes on it. Her hair is a medium light auburn and cut in a shoulder length bob. Her eyes are a clear silver with a very light touch of blue. She normally wears white or ivory when she needs to be recognised as a Healer. If she is out she tries to blend in with a variety of outfits. Her favorites are the ones that she can pass off as a boy in, albeit a pretty boy.
Cora has a very even unfailingly strong grounded personality. She radiates authenticity, concern and altruism, unafraid to stand up and speak when she feels something needs to be said. She finds it natural and easy to communicate with others, especially in person, and her Force Techniques and traits help her to reach every mind, be it through facts and logic or raw emotion. Cora can easily see people’s motivations and seemingly disconnected events, and are able to bring these ideas together and communicate them as a common goal with an eloquence that is nothing short of mesmerizing. The interest Cora has in others is genuine, almost to a fault – when she believes in someone, she can become too involved in the other person’s problems, placing too much trust in them. Luckily, this trust tends to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, as her altruism and authenticity inspire those they care about to become better themselves. But if she isn’t careful, she can overextend her optimism, sometimes pushing others further than they’re ready or willing to go. Cora is vulnerable to another snare as well: she has a tremendous capacity for reflecting on and analyzing her own feelings, but if she gets too caught up in another person’s plight, she can develop a sort of emotional hypochondria, seeing other people’s problems in herself, trying to fix something in herself that isn’t wrong. If she gets to a point where she is held back by limitations someone else is experiencing, it can hinder Cora’s ability to see past the dilemma and be of any help at all. When this happens, it’s important for her to pull back and use that self-reflection to distinguish between what she really feels, and what is a separate issue that needs to be looked at from another perspective.

Personal biography.
A throat is cleared as a chair is pulled out and pushed back slowly. A very soft soothing voice comes over the recording. The vowels are very open and round. The consonants are strong and distinct.
“These have never been easy for me to work with and I don’t particularly enjoy putting personal entries in a data log, holovideo, or even writing them down. Material for training purposes is much more useful. For purposes of this being found in the plethora of information that I record this should be turned into the Jedi Council after being played for two parties. Those two parties are as follows. Healer Mara, my former master. For her to understand why I have done what I did and to come to terms with it. And Aren is a friend who will wish to know what is going on.”
The voice is brisk and accompanied by a sigh that is sharp and heavy but short lived.
"I have recently unbent in my self imposed exile, or what seemed like self imposed exile. I took on another Padawan, a Sith Pureblood, Zhâlu Jenal. His courage spoke to me. He has attempted the Knight Trials twice now and has been unable to complete them fully. His temper seems to be the issue. He is willing to learn so that is a plus. His interest in healing is also a point in his favor. Though I find it quite funny that he is almost five years older than myself. So far the Master Padawan relationship has not suffered for it."
A short pause here and something can be heard pouring.
"I was contacted by Gaul Toben before his death stating that he was not going to make it back but that his Padawan Bryn Dok would survive. He asked me to find Bryn and bring him back. I have yet to fully track Bryn’s movements but I get closer all the time. Pyter’s death hit me hard. I was a young Knight at the time, twenty five years old, almost fresh out of trials and he was placed with me due to the need for more Jedi. We were still at war at that point and I was happy to have someone to pass my knowledge on to. If this truce can be called more than just a laying down of weapons still within reach. Pyter was twelve and had such potential that his death was what I deemed to be a huge loss for The Order. Then again all losses we suffered were significant. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time and to this day I still wonder if I made the wrong call in sending him to get some additional medical supplies that were needed.”
A long pause and the soft clink of a glass can be heard.
“The supply convoy that he stopped at was hit. There were no survivors. I felt the bond fizzle out and knew that he was gone. I was able to pull myself together and heal those I could. I found his family after the incident and informed them. It was one of the hardest things I’ve had to do but I wouldn’t have left it to anyone else.”
A short pause where the soft scrape of presumably the glass is heard pushed across the table or surface that it rests on. A soft throat clearing is heard.
“My Knight Trials were swift as many were while we were at war. My former Master Mara had me working triage on a battlefield which took all of my concentration to keep people alive. So passed the Trial of Skill after many lives were saved due to my timely intervention. Ironically the Trial of Courage and Insight were the easiest for me. I displayed the courage to heal the Trooper that we came across that could have very well killed us. I also left him unconscious and tied up so that he couldn’t get away or sneak up on us. A blaster in the back is sometimes harder to anticipate and easier to overlook. Plus it’ll kill you just as fast as a lightsaber. The Trials of Flesh and Spirit were much harder for me. Particularly the Spirit Trial. But one must learn to recognise that you have done what you can for someone and that sometimes healing only brings more pain. I spent most of my formative years at H’Ratth Academy. Honed my skills and rose to Padawan status there. I was a foundling that was collected from a derelict ship outside the Hapes system. My parents were found dead and identified as Hapian merchants that were attacked by Pirates and I was told to hide. I was three and remember much of what happened. To boil it down the Pirates saw an opportunity and took it. My parents hid me and once the fighting was over I wandered out of my hiding place. There was a man in blue and brown robes that took me to The Order. He handed me over saying that he believed that since he could tell that I was strong with the Force and should be trained in it. And there you have it…”

⛅Aren is a quiet yet bold Jedi. She is often seen meditating or learning something new on her free time, and never allows herself to become bored. She enjoys constantly being on the move, which is one thing she shares with her Padawan. Aren is decisive and strong-willed, and does well in focusing that energy into training her Padawan and performing her duties as a Knight. She is very insightful and is able to see through dishonesty and disingenuous motives. She is selfless, decisive, and passionate. Anything and everything she does is for the betterment of the Jedi Order and her Padawan. She is always able to follow through on her word and will leave no stone unturned when the answer to an issue isn't present.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
⛅ She is lacking in patience, something that must be built upon in working with her Padawan. It has grown better over the past two years they've been together, but sometimes Val's energy is something she needs to keep in check, which tests this patience. ⛅ She is slow to share her thoughts and feelings during a mission if she knows they are gruesome or dark in nature. This flaw was built upon by her Psychometry, for sometimes there are things even she did not want to see or know. ⛅ Aren can come off as callous to those who do not know her well. She is always willing to talk to others, especially her Padawan, but should she be in deep thought or focused, her callousness can come out.
☁️Owned equipment of note.
⛅Her two sabers, one green single-handed and the other a more yellow-green Shoto saber. ⛅Defender-class light corvette, the Pathfinder.
☁️Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in Jedi archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
⛅Aren does not remember much of her younger life. Most of what she knows is that she was born and raised on Hapes and had numerous fits and scares as a young child do to, what once was, her undiscovered talent in Psychometry. Once it was discovered that she was Force sensitive, Aren was taken to Arkania Praxeum to begin her Jedi training.
As she grew, Aren quickly caught on to the use of dual blades, a regular blade and a shoto were preferable to her style and form. Her Psychometry was a focus of her training as well, and she was taught about the visions she'd see, why it happened, and most importantly how to control it. The young Jedi passed her Initiate trials with ease at the age of eleven, and moved on to join a Jedi by the name of Reco Kalasar as she moved through her years as a Padawan. From her master she learned that her patience was always lacking, but that she had a good heart and mind behind it which was almost enough to balance it out. She was encouraged to share her ideas, her visions, anything she would see with her Master, especially when they came to her through her Psychometry. Many times Aren saw things she had preferred not, which only solidified her constant training regimen to learn to focus her Psychometry and control it.
Her life through the war and into the period of the treaty had been filled with trials and tribulations. Her hardest and final Knight trial had been fulfilled after she watched her Master cut down by Sith in front of her, to which she took her blades in hand and fought them back until support had arrived. She was Knighted only a few days later and spent much of her time afterwards taking a form of independence and training to improve areas of herself that she had felt lacking. She spent much time on Tython as she trained, in between the assignments she took and the travels she made. If she was not in the library reading, or in the sparring hall training, she was out on her own in Tython, taking in the feeling planet and all of the flora and fauna it held.
Now, at age thirty, she still has much to learn. She and her padawan, Val'Ko, have spent much of their first two years together constantly on the move, and constantly learning from their experiences and from each other. Training never stops for Aren or her padawan, but it is something she embraces and it is a part of who she is.
🔷As a player, what is your preferred writing level? 🔸Several paragraphs 🔸Long stories with heavy collaboration
🔷Is grammar and depth of writing important to you? 🔸Extremely. I always look forward to reading about how other characters feel in the moment, and what they're thinking. Depth of writing is something I love, and something I'm working on myself.
🔷Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring? 🔸Siblings bonds are my favorite, but in the case of the Star Wars PG, I love to explore the bonds between other characters. Writing about those bonds is one of my favorite things to do.
🔷Is there anything you really dislike and want to avoid like the plague? 🔸Romance. Something I've never enjoyed, nor tried at all. Willing to, but only if it's natural between characters.
🔷Is there something you are uncomfortable with happening to your character? 🔸Romance... Just not feelin' it unless it's natural, even then it'll take some time for me to get used to.
🔷Do you have any short-term or long-term goals with this character? 🔸Short Term: Dominik growing closer back into the Order, becoming less of a wanderer; missions with other Jedi. Just more character growth in general, perhaps he'll take in another Padawan? 🔸Long Term: Possible promotion to the Council, more intel gathering/teaching/training? Wouldn't mind a heroic death out of all of it, but only if it fits 🤷♀️

🔷Known associates: 🔸 Jedi Grandmaster Satele Shan 🔸🔹One of the few he'd ever call a close friend. He met Satele when they were both Padawans, and they've kept in touch throughout both of their lives. She's someone Dominik trusts with his life, and one of the few he knows he can fight alongside with. 🔸 Jedi Padawan Xid Terrik (Location Unknown) 🔸🔹A Padawan Dominik had taught many times. The kid was shy, unsure of himself, but very very intelligent and showed a knack for playing with tech. The last time Dominik saw Xid was during the Sacking of Coruscant when the older Jedi was escorting Younglings to safety. Dominik presumes the boy died in the fighting, like his Padawan. 🔸 Jedi Padawan Evin Raethen (Deceased) 🔸🔹The single Padawan Dom took on so far as a Jedi. He and the kid got along well as they shared many similarities in their personality and interests. Evin died fighting next to Dom during the Sacking of Coruscant. 🔸️Jedi Knight Airus Vel Aath 🔸️🔹️Dom first met Airus when the man was a simple Initiate. He had attended many of Dom's teachings. Dominik remembers him as a bright and attentive learner. Dominik also knew Airus after he was chosen to be a Padawan to Sar Dan'ii. 🔸️Jedi Master Sar Dan'ii (Deceased) 🔸️🔹️A good friend that Dom met after he passed his Knight Trials. Sar was someone who's company he enjoyed, even if she was a little scatterbrained at times. Losing her connection as a friend through the Force also influenced Dom's change after the Sacking. 🔸Jedi Padawan Lo Lya'Tre 🔸️🔹️Dominik's second and current Padawan. He had known Lo's parents ever since her birth, and was there the day her mother and father were killed. He whisked the young Force sensitive off to H'ratth for safety and oversaw her growth. Eventually, through both the wishes of the Jedi Council and his choice, he took Lo as his padawan. 🔸Sith Apprentice Nimm Deenia 🔸️🔹️A Sith apprentice he had seen many times during his time in the hands of the Sith. He vaguely remembers her experiments, her threatening voice and the pain that followed. He has not seen her since the Jedi successfully extracted him from his prison all those years ago.
🔷Favored Equipment and clothes: 🔸Temple/Diplomatic Robes
🔸Scars adorn his chest and back from his time spent in captivity. A long, ragged scar runs from the back of his head, down the left side of his neck and across his chest. 🔸Sometimes he can be seen walking with a slight limp, favoring his right leg as he moves. In more casual settings, he'll carry a waist high walking stick to aid with his geriatric tendencies. Healers have deduced that the limp was caused by a combination of his experiences in wartime coupled with the simple fact of old age. It is an injury that hasn't responded to any forms of healing.
🔷Simplified report on natural ability with the Force.
🔸Dominik chose to focus on his connection with the Force over his skill with the lightsaber. Due to the innate talent of Force Cloak that was discovered when he was a boy, Dominik was thrown headfirst into meditation, holocrons, and a Force-based training regimen. Dominik prefers to use the Force while he fights, as it is a part of his identity as a Jedi. The man is well known for his past of being behind enemy lines and gathering intel, and surviving for a year as a captive after the siege of Alderaan.
🔷List of all known ownerships, including vessels, (non-standard) equipment, and locations.
🔷Quick report on political influence, associates and rivals.
🔸Dominik has a fair share of both political rivals and friendly associates. After pulling away from his main duty gathering intel, Dominik fell into diplomacy rather easily. He made frequent visits to Alderaan a couple years after it's siege, in an attempt to calm the people Alderaan and quell the division amongst them between the pacifists and those that began to advocate aggressive military operations against the Empire
🔷Psychological evaluation of Jedi Order member.
🔸To his friends and associates, Dominik Rothul is kind-hearted man who loves to joke around and discuss anything about the galaxy. To those who do not know him, Dominik is often seen as callous, unapproachable, and very independent. Due to the isolation Dominik put himself in throughout his years as a Master, he only has a small circle of those he would call friends and acquaintances. He is dedicated to the Jedi Order and the safety of its members, be they Master or Youngling. He shows a fierceness and determination to protect those which he cares about, and is not often caught unprepared nor underskilled.
🔷List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into restricted database.
🔸Callous 🔸🔹To those who do not know Dominik well, or to those Dominik does not know at all, he can seem quite hardened to emotions. He rarely shows any forms of expressions if he's amongst those he does not know, trust, or like. He is often described as cold to other Jedi who haven't work with him much. 🔸Fierce 🔸🔹Though Dominik shies away from heavy and physical combat, he is often described as violent and intense should the outcome of a fight influence the lives of those he cares about. Due to his experiences in captivity, Dominik often reflects upon the fights beforehand that lead to his capture, and refuses to let anyone else meet that fate, or worse. 🔸Independent 🔸🔹Due to being on his own for most of his Knight years and as a Jedi Master, Dominik finds it hard to trust those he does not know well. He is quite independent and often makes his own decisions if he feels he cannot get a good opinion from those around him.
🔷Major achievements on record.
🔸Successfully constructed his first lightsaber. 🔸Completed Initiate Trials. 🔸Completed Knight Trials. 🔸Was captured and interrogated by independent forces, but managed to escape. 🔸Successfully gathered intel that was proven to be vital to the Jedi Order in thwarting ambushes, coups, and invasions by unfriendly forces throughout the galaxy. 🔸Appointed to the rank of Jedi Master by the Council at the age of 52. 🔸Survived the Sacking of Coruscant.
🔷Major failures on record. Confidential.
🔸Was captured and interrogated by independent forces, but managed to escape. 🔸Was captured and interrogated by Sith during the siege of Alderaan. 🔸Lost a Padawan during a fight with multiple Sith during the Sacking of Coruscant.
🔷Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in Jedi archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
🔸 Mic on. You may begin. 🔸🔹"Ahem- I am Jedi Master Dominik Rothul. I was born on Alderaan, in the capital city of Aldera, in the year 3707. I lived as a commoner for the first years of my life before, at the age of ten, I discovered that I was connected to the Force. I learned quickly that I was to be trained to become a Jedi. It was- two days past when a Jedi came to my home and explained to me that I was to leave my home immediately to begin training at a Jedi Temple. I was scared, as any young boy would be, to leave my family and my life behind for something completely different and strange to me. I said my goodbyes to my mother and father, and next thing I knew I was dressed in robes and held a lightsaber in my hand. I dove into my studies- found some interest in information gathering, forms of stealth, and in my connection with the Force. I was directed to begin training in Shii-Cho and Niman, and quickly discovered that I had an innate talent for a skill which the Masters called Force Cloak. It seemed that ninety-percent of my focus went into lightsaber training, learning to use my talent, and becoming one with the Force. My padawan years seemed to be just as chaotic. I was quickly paired with Jedi Knight Elveyor Ki. Master Elveyor and I didn't see eye to eye on many things. He was more combat oriented whereas I liked to observe my surroundings and make a plan. We fought often, but we still watched each others backs. We both had our close calls, and there were a couple times in which we had to look back on the decisions we made and what we'd change, but all in all he taught me well. I stuck by his side as we jumped from mission to mission. It didn't seem like there was any downtime at all, which I was fine with. Life finally seemed to slow down as I was preparing for my trials. He taught me a lot, which helped in the success I had in my trials. After I became a Jedi Knight, I was constantly on the move. This time I had only myself, and Jedi Holocrons to gain knowledge from. As a Padawan I followed my Master almost endlessly, my focus was merely to train and gain knowledge, and to hone my skills if the situation allowed. On my own though, I started to focus more on my skills in the Force, and oftentimes I found myself sent off to gather intel- Dark Jedi and deviants were still a priority. I found myself using my skills in conjunction with one another so that I could slip past defenses others couldn't, and to avoid being detected by those I was following."
White noise fills a few moments of static.
"In my time gathering intel, I was caught twice. The first happened when I was only a year into my Knighthood. I stepped too far into independent enemy territory and my only decision was to fight my way out. Needless to say I was overwhelmed. I spent a month as a captive until I decided to fight back. I still don't know how long I had been there but my absence was noticed when I returned to Coruscant. After being debriefed I was instructed to go into recovery, which I did for a short time to reflect and meditate on what happened and to prepare myself to go back into the field. The second time I was apprehended was on Alderaan in 3667. Aldera, my home, was under siege by the Sith. I was not there, however, as I had a mission to gather intel on this threat from points of Alderaan that had shown... extremism. My area of operation was exposed by people whom I trusted. Locals, mostly, those who hadn't shown extremism or preached about the glory of the Sith, and some other agents who were thought loyal to the Republic. I was exposed, captured, and taken off planet to _______. I spent nearly a year under their hand. I can't recall much of the experience except that Crucitorn was my only saving grace. I was able to withstand many of their sessions without giving away any vital information that would endanger the Jedi Order. I was rescued by a small task force of Jedi led by Grandmaster Satele Shan. Afterwards, I returned to a praxeum to heal and reflect on my experience, as it wasn't apparent at first how much it had affected me and my connection to the Force. With the guidance from friends, colleagues, and Masters, I was able to find myself again and I returned to my duties after a few months of healing. I quickly found out that I had a knack for diplomacy, so I started to pursue that as part of my Master studies. Many times I found myself on Coruscant teaching at the Temple. Not long after I was made Master, I took on a Padawan. He was a younger boy, unsure of himself, shy, but strong with the Force and a little bullheaded at times. I often found I was comparing him to my younger self after I had left Alderaan for my training. I found it comforting, to have someone at my side while I travelled."
Sounds of the mic being put down, shuffling in the background. Intervewee returns to the mic, taking a deep breath before continuing.
"I went into teaching for a short time in the Temple- but after the Sacking of Coruscant, after losing my Padawan among many others, I found myself buried under immense guilt. I felt as though I could've helped prevent the ambush on Coruscant, if I had been in a different field, focusing on my old ways; finding intel, watching POI's. I grew more distant from the Order and decided to focus on my studies, and returning to my old field of gathering intel. Now I find myself reflecting again on my past, digging up leads to some very frightening plots, and reuniting with old friends."
Name: Nimm Deenia Species: Imperial Human Pureblood percentage: 11% Homeworld: Dromund Kaas Age: 62 (looks 25) Gender: Female Rank: Sith Apprentice (Archaeologist) Master: Darth Nyiss Former master(s): Lord Arkanus Apprentice(s): Sphere of influence: Ancient Knowledge, Mysteries
Imperial Intelligence Reports
Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.
The Subject, one of Darth Nyiss’ apprentices, is outwardly 100% imperial human. She stands 171 cm tall and weighs around 66.7 kgs, all within normal parameters. Further investigation has revealed something odd. Old recordings and images from many years ago showing her looking exactly the same, when she should only have been an infant. The truth of this has proven impossible to find out. There is no evidence of physical degradation from overuse of the Force.
An in-depth investigation into recordings as well as a field study has revealed that the subject is fairly predictable in her preferences for clothing. She almost universally wears black, knee-length sith robes while in the empire, or practical more neutral clothes if she is outside imperial borders for some reason or other and needs to obscure her imperial ties.
She has a preference for the practical clothes suitable for whatever climate she finds herself in. Though simple in appearance, investigation revealed that the quality is top-notch. Any appearance of being tattered or worn is by design. She generally has a wide black leather belt with her lightsaber and tools on it, as well as combined half-gloves/bracers on both arms that appear technological in origin, but whose functionality is undetermined. Rumors persist that her hands are covered in hairline scars that stem from traps, but as she always wears those gloves, that has not been possible to verify.
Report on natural ability with the Force, as well as all known Force Techniques and the skill levels.
Covert field study has revealed that the subject is particularly proficient with the Force, but appears to limit herself to certain techniques, in spite of the fact that evidence implies she has both the raw power and experience to use far more advanced techniques. No amount of investigation has brought to light why. Below is an estimate of the subject’s skill levels with most techniques of the Force.
Basic Techniques
Force Speed - Intermediate Training
Telekinesis - Master Talent
Force Throw - Expert Training
Force Choke - Expert Talent
Telekinetic Defense - Expert Talent
Telepathic Defense - Intermediate Training
Force Sight (basic) - Intermediate Training
Force Sense - Intermediate Talent
Precognition - Intermediate Training
Mind trick - Intermediate Training
Force Jump - Expert Training

Force lightning - Expert Talent
Detoxify Poison - Basic Training
Droid Disable - Basic Talent
Breath control - Basic Training
Force Stasis - Intermediate Talent
Advanced Techniques
Force Cloak - Basic Training
Force Stealth - Intermediate Training
Sith Alchemy - Basic Training or Intermediate Training (investigation failed to uncover facts)
Report on known skills and combat experience, training and lightsaber training.
The subject has proven herself an apt pilot with a variety of smaller ships and vehicles, but does not appear to be overfond of piloting fighters. She is also reasonably skilled at slicing her way through computer systems (sometimes literally), and has claimed to be familiar with the layout of most ship models in the imperial fleet as well as the common types of ships used by the so-called Galactic Republic. For obvious reasons, the latter has proven difficult to verify.
As Darth Nyiss’ personal archaeologist, the subject is an expert at dealing with traps such as those found in the tombs of ancient Sith. Tales of her Force-roasted Nexu rise occasionally, but they seem to be dual-natured in that it is either delicious or lethal. No significant deaths have been verified as tied to it, but a number of people who got on her wrong side have died from unknown causes.
While the subject has basic knowledge of all forms of lightsaber combat, analysis has revealed that she herself primarily uses a variant of the fifth form, with parts from the others mixed in as she deems it necessary. She is fond of using whatever is at her disposal in combat to win. Mostly redacted reports indicate that she is not above running from a fight if it is unwinnable. Such cases have at times been followed up by orbital bombardment. Whatever means necessary. She does not hold to antiquitated concepts such as “honor” in battle.
As befits any Sith her age, she has considerable combat experience, but it is more in smaller engagements than it is front line combat. Most notable of her military experience was her participation in the Sacking of Coruscant under the command of her master, Darth Nyiss. There a significant number of Jedi fell, as well as a significant number of artifacts acquired, including numerous Sith holocrons stolen by the Jedi Order over the years.
Names and pertinent details for all political and social associates. Including allies, enemies, rivals, underlings, apprentices and more.
Her primary political influence can be summed up into a single name: Darth Nyiss. Being one of the Darth’s personal apprentices, the subject has significant influence to draw on, provided it does not go against her master’s goals. Exactly where her master’s influence ends and her own starts has proven impossible to identify, as their goals appear to be perfectly in line with each other.
No specific rivals have been identified, but it is well-known that she bears particularly strong hatred for the Jedi Order, especially for those known as “Jedi Shadows”.
Curiously enough, the subject has no apprentices of her own yet, in spite of her long life. She has had a few captive Jedi that she toyed with before breaking, but none that truly became worth calling Sith. She assisted her master and her master’s other apprentices in dealing with a significant number of captured Jedi in the months after the Sacking of Coruscant.
Personality analysis of candidate.
The subject appears to be mentally sound. She is stubborn, but not to a fault. A good word to describe her is pragmatic, as one who looks for solutions rather than focusing upon the problems. Rushing things is not her style, unless it is necessary, of course. Her determined nature indicates, from acquired medical reports, that she has kept going with missions even with multiple broken bones. Evaluation indicated that she viewed such merely as added obstacles.
Her hatred of Jedi is second to none. In her eyes, Jedi are either potential Sith or—preferably—prey. Making them suffer before they die is something she has shown time and again to take joy in.
It can be concluded that getting her as an ally would be a significant asset, but also that it would be very hard to get her away from her master.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
The flaws of the subject, as is the case with the flaws of most Sith, are hard to identify on account of them being kept secret. However, some theories can be noted about probable and possible flaws for this particular subject. They are as follows:
Faulty connection to the Force? She doesn’t appear to use abilities she should easily be able to use given her experience and access to knowledge.
Excessive maltreatment of captive Jedi - Many captive Jedi that might have become productive Sith have been reduced to bestial wrecks at her hand. Her hatred of the Jedi is such that it can at times inconvenience the Empire.
Socially uncaring - The opinions of others do not matter as much to her as they perhaps should.
Reduced mobility in right arm - And old medical report indicated her arm is reduced to 87% of its original functionality. There may be other reductions elsewhere, but no other medical reports were uncovered. Evidence indicates she has intentionally had them removed.
off-handed combat - Though originally right-handed, the subject has been forced to primarily use her left arm for wielding her lightsaber in battle due to aforementioned injuries.
Sub-par duelist - The subject can hold her own in a duel, but anyone talented at dueling is likely to beat her in a pure duel. She is known to use any means at her disposal to balance this, though. She has been known to flee such battles.
In the subject’s eyes, cybernetics are a sign of weakness and failure. She is scornful towards those with artificial limbs, treating them as lesser individuals.
Peace is a lie - If it had not been ordered from the Emperor himself, the subject would have continued fighting the Jedi after the Sacking of Coruscant. Following her master’s secret project on Feena she was clearly anxious to go back into the thick of things. Enough so that her master publically instructed her to go to Korriban for studies.
Known interests of the candidate.
Hurting Jedi.
Sith tombs and artifacts.
Major achievements on record.
Archeology - Uncovered numerous artifacts of ancient Sith.
Participant - Sacking of Coruscant.
Pilfered Jedi Temple on Coruscant.
Major failures on record. Confidential.
Killed/broke several Jedi that could have been turned.
Chastised for stepping out of line in relation to the Emperor’s Peace Treaty with the Republic.
Owned equipment of note.
As befits a Sith that keeps herself somewhat isolated from imperial society, it is difficult to uncover much details about her ownerships. While none have been identified, it is assumed that she has a significant number of Sith Artifacts. It is also taken for granted that she has access to multiple ships, albeit none of these larger than small freighters, some made by imperial shipyards, others made elsewhere. How many of her master’s assets she can utilize is also unknown.
Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in imperial archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
As I have in common with many of the less exceptional Sith, I was born on Dromund Kaas some twenty-eight years before we returned to repay the republic for what they did to Korriban all those years ago. It is simple fact that Imperial records show that I have ancestors who were Sith. None of these Sith were my parents or their parents. In fact, you have to go back several generations more before them to find any Sith who had any true power in my family tree. But that is quite irrelevant, for upon being tested at the age of five, I proved myself worthy of becoming a Sith, the ultimate honor for any child in the Empire. The future truly was within my grasp.
Where the vast majority of Sith for the past two and a half decades have almost all been trained on Korriban, our ancestral homeworld, all sith of my generation and before have been trained in the academy on Dromund Kaas. That is, after its construction following our last war with the Jedi. But where a Sith was trained matters little. If he or she is trained properly the way I was, he or she will have had plenty of conflict throughout the training. Anything else would mean a mediocre Sith at best.
I myself had to send quite a few fellow acolytes to the infirmaries with injuries of varying seriousness before they learned not to bother me. So far as it goes with proof, I have not killed any acolytes. I could’ve killed many, but chose to show pity upon them and send them to the infirmaries instead. Not one of them ever dared to strike against me after that, for they knew well that I was far superior to them, and so long as they stay out of my way, I will not bother hunting them down. Why should I bother, when they are not our true enemy, the Jedi?
The few times I did not win, I took bitter lessons from it. Sometimes, I got outmaneuvered politically, other times I found myself facing those who were superior warriors. Whatever the cause, I made certain the problem would not come up again by whatever means I deemed necessary. I leave it to you to imagine how I went about that.
As happens with all acolytes who survive the academies, I eventually rose to the rank of Apprentice and found a master I deemed worthy at the time. His name was Lord Arkanus. He was in the service of Darth Arctis, though of course not particularly highly ranked within the Sphere of Ancient Knowledge. I did not care, for in addition to teaching me far more about the Dark Side, he ensured that I learned exactly what I needed to access the edifices of the ancient Sith with relative safety.
Initially, I merely served in the Imperial Reclamation Service, but as I grew in power and knowledge, I took on more and more direct roles until I finally had command over a portion of it. For several years, I worked with and led these men, amassing a power base of sufficient size to eventually become a power of my own, rather than a mere minion. Lord Arkanus naturally demanded I hand over whatever artifacts I found within the uncovered ruins, and I naturally handed him just enough to not make him suspicious.
As my collection of artifacts grew, I grew more ambitious. Had things kept going that way, I would no doubt eventually have taken Lord Arkanus’ place. But of course this was not all glorious. More than a few times I found that the traps of the ancient Sith were quite a bit more ingenious than expected. Having to spend days submerged in Kolto to recover from broken bones and other injuries, I could not continue building my power base as quickly as I desired.
However, before I could dispose of my master in a way that would not cause any problems for me, the war with the Jedi broke out. I myself led one of the teams sent to retake the surface of Korriban from its unlawful occupiers. In fact, I was one of the first Sith to set foot upon a free Korriban in over a thousand years. The sight of the tombs of the ancient lords of the Sith were breathtaking. Even as we disposed of the republic forces there, I could barely wait to see what riches—and traps—they held.
Like most other Sith, I naturally had to aid the war effort. It was expected of me and I liked it. A day spent crushing the Jedi is not a day wasted. But however enjoyable that might be, my true passion lay in exploring the ruins of the ancient Sith. In discovering forgotten artifacts that might lead to the obliteration of the Jedi and the republic.
Though the forces I served with were not always victorious, I was no combat master or tactician. The blame for any such failures, though wrong in so many ways, was not mine to bear. Most members of the Sphere of Ancient Knowledge were more often than not deployed well behind the front lines, distant from most pitched battles. This, naturally, suited me just fine.
What did not suit me nearly as fine was Lord Arkanus. Where he had once supported my career properly, it now became clearer and clearer that he did not care about gaining more power. He cared more about history. About ‘preserving the past’ or some such nonsense. Sure, its nice to know the past, but what is the point to study it if you are not going to use it to become more powerful? It was quite simply, a shame to be his apprentice when he held these views.
I had not sufficient power to depose him yet, so I had to do the next best thing: Find a more suitable master to serve under until I could teach Lord Arkanus what it truly means to be Sith. Just before grinding his head into a pulp with my boots.
By this time, I had accumulated a decent amount of contacts throughout the Empire. Thus when I cast out my nets inquiring with subtlety about Lords and Darths of true worth, it took no time at all before I got plenty of feedback. But the vast majority of these were not even worth considering. Some were too ambitious, others didn’t even have the excuse of ambition, they were plain stupid. Then there were the Sith who were too public. I had no interest in attention of that sort. All that would do is attract assassins.
In the end, the choice fell on a young Sith Lord who went by the name of Nyiss. She, unlike all the others, was worthy. She had the proper respect for the past, stayed out of the public eye and had just the right amount of ambition. At only a few years older than myself, she had had time to gather the power to rise to the rank of Sith Lord. And she valued secrecy.
The fact that she had shown no compunction about using any means necessary to kill republic scum made her all the more attractive as a master. In my eyes, her use of chemical and biological weapons was quite simply artistic. I established contact with her and made it clear what I expected in return for joining her, and she in turn made her expectations of me clear. As these expectations did not clash, we made the necessary moves. I collected what I could bring of my power base and once safely away, I made my intentions abundantly clear to Lord Arkanus.
My service to Lord Nyiss naturally did not begin with proper trust from either of us. Trust takes time to build. At first my position was somewhat less than it had been under Lord Arkanus, but as time passed, this would change. She did not expect me to blindly hand over my collection, I did not offer. Any such offer would not spread mistrust. But even this was not the sole contents of my troubles these months. As foolish and complacent as he had grown, my former master did not take kindly to my absconding with what I considered my belongings and my servants. He sent a few assassins my way and tried to have several of my assets seized.
I dispatched his assassins with relative ease, as they all underestimated me. His attempts to seize my assets was easily blocked by my new master, who had quite a bit more political pull than he did. The simple fact that he had proven unable to retain them and me in the first place proved his inadequacy. For all I cared, he could chew on the carpets in anger at my choice.
Eventually, as Nyiss began to trust me, I rebuilt my power base and even made it grow larger, even as she grew more powerful even quicker with the aid of my own power. Some twenty years ago, after some truly deep digging, we recovered evidence of a particularly powerful artifact made by one of the most ancient of Sith Lords and departed to uncover it.
Exactly how we went about that is another tale, but suffice to say, we found it and put it to good use. That artifact is the object that has made me into the Sith I am today. Before our departure, Lord Nyiss dealt some particularly memorable defeats to the republic and the Jedi. These defeats are part of why she eventually rose to the rank of Darth, but far from all of it. I knew after we found the artifact that I truly had found a master worthy of service, a master under whom I could rise far in the Empire.
During the Sacking of Coruscant I helped myself to a good portion of their holocron vaults, liberating a number of Sith holocrons stolen by the Jedi over the years, in addition to removing quite a few Jedi holocrons, the latter of which now rest comfortably inside a Blue Giant whose location I have no intention of sharing with anyone. It was unfortunate that Darth Malgus did not give us sufficient time to remove every single holocron and other records from that edifice to narrow-mindedness. Still, we did cripple it good and proper.
I captured a pet Jedi during the sacking—one who tried to stop my recovery project—who I had some fun with in the months after, slowly breaking her, body and mind. After that, I got my master’s assistance at turning her into a proper sithspawn. Better than Jedi in so many ways.
My master’s project saw some success, but not enough before the Jedi captives were all dead or turned, but I left as soon as my master no longer needed me at her side. Turning Jedi isn’t nearly as enjoyable as breaking them. After a year on Korriban delving into the ruins there and helping a few young acolytes, I spent the next few years making good use of that farce called a “peace treaty”, going further outside imperial borders to find and acquire Sith artifacts that had either been buried outside imperial space, or had been uncovered by others before.
Now I am searching for something even juicier: A way to end the Jedi, once and for all.
Being an alternate identity, Kayda looks suspiciously similar to Nimm. Same face, same body, same scars. There the similarity ends. Where Nimm keeps her hair loose, Kayda keeps it braided down. Where Nimm has worn, black Sith robes with some armoring, Kayda has a brownish green tunic and brown pants tucked into a pair of worn nerf-leather boots. She has a sleeved outer cloak with voluminous sleeves, of a shade similar to the inner tunic. Though covering much, the cloak is easily disposed of should she need to.
At her right hip she carries a holstered blaster of uncertain make, visibly worn and well-used. Not by Nimm, of course. Up her left sleeve she has a wrist mount for her lightsaber, where it can remain concealed but ready to be drawn. On her right arm she has her comlink and the rest of her electronic suite. She has several pouches with basic supplies and tools on her nerf-leather belt.
Report on known skills and combat experience, training and lightsaber training.
Kayda’s history in the war is mostly fabricated by imperial operatives, relying on sources that cannot reliably be verified, such as reports purportedly written by deceased individuals, both Jedi and within the republic army/navy. Very little is known about her following the start of the Cold War.
Names and pertinent details for all political and social associates. Including allies, enemies, rivals, underlings, apprentices and more.
Kayda has no prominent living associates.
Personality analysis of candidate.
She is cold, at times distant, but can also be helpful when she feels the desire. It is clear to any who are around her much that the war affected her heavily.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
Her story is flawed. While casual investigation will not perforate it, the story is not immune to scrutiny. A thorough investigation, particularly by someone who actually knew the individuals referenced in the files related to her, will likely reveal some discrepancies.
Owned equipment of note.
She has no noteworthy equipment, but she is known to carry a green lightsaber.
Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in Jedi archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.

Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.
The subject—one Tala Delstee—born on Ziost, is not atypical for imperial pilots who started their training at the tail end of the Great Galactic War. Her physical appearance is not one that would make her stand out in a crowd, be it on Ziost, Dromund Kaas or elsewhere in the Empire. She is of average height and has prime physical conditioning, with regulation-length hair and always keeps her uniform in pristine condition.
Report on skills and talents, including level of skill.
Pilot - Intermediate Talent (7th best in her class)
Combat training - Basic Training, Imperial Navy Pilot
The subject has a limited record of engagements due to her age, but shows great promise. Her results in combat are impeccable and does great credit to the instructors at the fourth Ziost Naval Academy. Her loyalty is unquestionable and she has proven to obey orders without question. When combined with her natural talent, she is a perfect candidate for assignment to Sith Apprentice Nimm Deenia.
Personality analysis of candidate.
Analysis of her training at the fourth Ziost Naval Academy and her service after graduation reveal a young pilot who is methodical, persistent, loyal and obedient. When it comes to assignment to Sith agents, she is a perfect candidate. Her creativity will aid almost any Sith she is assigned to.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
Lieutenant Delstee’s records show no vices. While she is not above consuming intoxicants, she never does so while on duty or when she expects to go on duty soon. When she does consume them, it is always in limited amounts. Though she has great talent, she lacks the experience of older pilots. Her scores for most types of flying are well above average, but she failed the disturbed asteroid belt test twice before passing it with a narrow margin.
While most consider it an advantage, her unquestioning loyalty and obedience may hurt her in the long run, should any Sith she is assigned to ask her to do something unwise.

Imperial Intelligence Reports
Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.
Corporal Typhe is an imposing individual. He is well above average for imperial citizens, with a bulky frame to match. Records indicate that he is more at home in combat armor than in a dress uniform, but he will wear both as situation demands. His face has a roughhewn appearance with a chiseled jaw and remnants of a black beard that he cuts off on a regular basis. For the past eleven years he has kept his hair cropped short.
Report on skills and talents, including level of skill.
Pilot - Intermediate training, Dromund Kaas Naval Academy
Combat - Expert talent, Imperial Special forces division 91
The subject is a warrior through and through. Records indicate he was practically born into the Imperial army special forces, with both his parents serving there during the first half of the war. His records show a brutal efficiency to his tactics. Records have him credited with two Jedi kills and one capture in battle, a trait that it is important to highlight to apprentice Nimm Deenia.
It is worth noting that in addition to his expertise in combat, he is also an adequate pilot and mechanic, traits that will serve the Apprentice Deenia well.
Names and pertinent details for all political and social associates. Including allies, enemies, rivals, underlings and more.
Corporal Typhe has connections to numerous individuals throughout the ministry of war. Though records have none listed by name, it is likely that he has enemies within the republic military hierarchy.
Personality analysis of candidate.
The corporal is not the most intelligent officer in the imperial army. He is not an imbecile, but he is unlikely to advance above his current rank and has expressed no interest in doing so. He is loyal and obedient, but most of all he is efficient. He does not question his orders and has no predisposition towards disobedience.
He is not one for speaking much and has shown a complete lack of a sense of humor. What he lacks in mental acumen, he makes up for in his fondness for powerful weapons and persistence.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
The corporal is unimaginative and persistent to a fault. If he has reason to believe he can succeed, he will persistently continue towards that goal, provided he isn’t ordered to break off. When off duty, he has a fondness for strong intoxicants and company of the female kind. Due to his nature as a prime aurek male, he rarely has to work hard to find such companionship.
It is worth noting that there is a significant number of young children throughout imperial space whose mothers have listed him as the father. The records indicate that he has set a majority of his funds towards aiding the children and their mothers, but otherwise has expressed no interest in closer association with any of them.

Imperial Intelligence Reports
Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.
Specialist Javik is a small, wiry thin individual. she would stand out in a crowd for this trait, if not for the fact that she uses these traits specifically to hide within any crowd she finds herself in. She does not stand out in a crowd due to the crowd frequently towering over her, providing her with excellent opportunities to hide.
She has brown hair of a color that some would liken to mud, kept braided away. Some agents have theorized that she keeps it long mostly because it is easier to hide with hair than out of any real fondness for it.

Names and pertinent details for all political and social associates. Including allies, enemies, rivals, underlings and more.
Specialist Javik is associated with individuals within the Sphere of Technology, serving in the field for assisting in the test of the prototype Mark IL heavy cybernetic armor. While she is not the architect of the armor’s design, she is qualified to perform both maintenance and modifications of its design with schematics provided by the actual experts.
Personality analysis of candidate.
What Specialist Javik lacks in brawn, she more than makes up for in brains. Older reports have her listed as frighteningly intelligent with a complete disregard for life, sentient or not. SHe has no known friends and has expressed no interest in acquiring any. The only people she appears to respect are ones with a similar outlook on life. As such, assignment to Apprentice Nimm Deenia is considered safe.
While she puts limited value on other people, evidence indicates that she values them for their usefulness. In the case of Corporal Typhe, studies indicate that she considers him the best means for testing the armor and as such seeks to keep him alive.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
Helia Javik is a flawed woman. She shows complete scorn for the lives of others, viewing them more as objects than as people. She has no social skills to speak of and is only loyal to her cause and those people who somehow earn her respect.
While she passed the mental aspects of the Imperial Intelligence field agent training with flying colors, she was but a small step away from failing the physical training. She can hold her own against poorly trained personnel and most civilians, but she is unlikely to last long against anyone with proper training. Her marksmanship is well below average, but she rarely wields blasters.
Evie stands at about 6ft (181 cm) tall and with piercing green eyes. She has an elegant beauty that is often complimented with her white robes and eerily warm smile. She often will wear her hair down and always seems to be well kept.

Aren Bec: Surrogate sister from her days on Arkania Praxeum and often will write her.
Graddon Bayasto: Her former master and often will train with him in-between missions
Personality analysis of candidate.
Evie has a patient, warm, and gentle aura about her that is grounded by a distinct sense of duty. A polite confidence that is balanced by her unrelenting tenacity to achieve her goal or the goals given to her by the Jedi Order. This sense of duty and tenacity will override her gentler nature that allows for her to thrive as a shadow. The code is but a set of guidelines to her as the terror of the Sith often require more aggressive measures to stamp out. If it can be helped she would much rather turn Sith back to the light whether it be by persuasion or force. She’s them as lost souls that need to be guided back to the light or become one with force as the blight of the Sith can never be allowed to fester.
List and description of known and suspected flaws, obligations, vices and weaknesses.
She has the tendency to not have a filter and often will speak what is on her mind. She can be a bit forlorn at isolation that involves being a Shadow. So much so that she desperately wants the approval of her peers, however this can come off as wooden and tends to agitate them. She worries that she will succumb to the tragedies that often are apparent to shadows such as social isolation and paranoia. She is not very trusting of any captured Jedi unless they have shown their worth as they can potentially be agents to the Sith. She has smidgen of her master’s paranoia that was instilled in her since she was a Padawan as “The darkness is all around us, often hiding in plain view.” This saying has never left her mind and is often present when meeting someone new. She does her best to rationalize that there is no definitive proof that they are aligned with the darkness and should not assume the worst given the state of the galaxy. She wonders if anybody will care for her or will her life be destined to that of tragic isolation. She enjoys music and often will go to dance halls to take her mind off the situations that are going around her. This is the one vice she enjoys to partake in as it helps her feel somewhat normal and offers her a brief respite from the tragedies of this age.

Data Dagger
Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in Jedi archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
She was born to a loving family who worked a modest farm on the rolling hills of the Planet Chandrila. Much of this time is but a blur to her as the green rolling hills and the loving songs that her mother used to sing her is all that she remembers. She vaguely remembers her father before he enlisted into the Republic Military but what she does is a very gentle soul that always knew how to make her feel safe. Once her force sensitivity was discovered by Graddon Bayasto and promptly taken to Arkenia Praxeum.
Her new environment was quite strange to her as the rolling green hills of Chandrilla were replaced with the harsh and frigid climate of Arkania. She was a quiet child that often initially kept to herself. This shyness prevented her from making many friends initially and was bullied .However Aren Bec swiftly put an end to that and seemed to take her under her wing as she adjusted to life in the Order. Evie saw her as an older sister and often would be seen following her around. Evie started to come out of her shell becoming more confident and carefree. However Aren kept her grounded and encourage her to redirect this new found confidence into her training. With this support she would go on to diligently train as she hoped to catch her surrogate sister someday in ability. However such pleasantries don’t last forever as she passed her trials and was gone to continue her training. Things could have gone back to how they were but she persisted with her new found confidence becoming more tenacious in her training. Keeping to this rigor she eventually would pass her initiate trial 2 years later at the age 11 and become the Padwan of Graddon Bayasto.
Graddon was a no nonsense master and immediately began drilling Evie in the techniques required to thrive in this time of strife. She began to transition into learning Makashi to combat Dark Force wielders and often would drill with her master for hours on end. If they weren’t drilling they were meditating and working on the different force techniques that specialized in defense. Evie disliked the urgency in which her master trained her but understood this was a time of war. However her master would not take her on every mission and often would have her stay with the ship to train. She dutifully obeyed and would constantly train as this was needed to be able to eradicate the Sith. After 4 years of intense training he began to take her on more dangerous missions. It was around this time that he began to groom her to become a Shadow as her devotion to the order is absolute as well as her resolve to end the tyranny of the Sith. These often had to deal with searching for Sith artifacts as well as spying on potential Jedi suspected of being Sith agents. Such Missions caused her to withdraw in and begin to become suspicious of captured comrades. She put up a wall and became vigilant as “The darkness is all around us, often hiding in plain view.” However she would observe her master and worry as he often would constantly look for the Darkness, even when it seemed illogical to her. It was at this time that she began to reflect and wonder if it was right to have this attitude when one had no proof. It conflicted with her sense of hope and began to ponder if it was possible to guide them back to the light. Such thoughts would be pushed to the back of her mind as she was about to take her final Knight trial. As she prepared she began to observe her master more and more wondering if her fate was sealed to end up like him. She would keep in correspondence with Aren and this helped put her mind at ease as he was all he had. She had him but also had Aren and was actively going to make it a point to get along better with her peers, even if her first instinct is to see if they are potentially Sith agents.
She would pass her final Knight Trial at the age of 21 and would begin her work as Shadow further training with her former master in stealth and espionage. During this time she would start to collect information on potential Sith artifacts as well as potential Sith agents. Occasionally hunting for them and as it stands has only been able to retrieve 2 as most other times it would turn out to be nothing but a wild bantha chase. In between missions she is constantly training while occasionally engaging in her musical hobbies as well as attempting to learn how to cook.
"From the force, I draw strength. From strength, comes power."
Name: Talik Gida Species: Lethan Twi’lek Age: 20 Gender: Female Rank: Inquisitor Master: Sith Lord Kallei (Deceased) Under Mentorship of Sith Lord Atroxa
Detailed appearance.
Like her twin sister, Talik is generally regarded as an exotic beauty. Standing at a height of 5'5" the girl has a toned body from years of training how to fight at the Academy. With some rather appealing curves to accompany her, Talik is something which draws attention where she goes. Something which the girl is rather content with, as she wants to ensure her enemies and allies all know that it was she who did those actions. She dresses in a mixture of black robes and armor that are meant not to be bulky. This of course meaning that while the armor is flexible and the opposite of bulky, it will not afford as much protection. The girl can be rather vain at times, and as such typically dresses in a way to ensure she looks good for the occasion. Her orange eyes typically are critical as they look over others, and her expression one of superiority as she sees herself a step above just about all other creatures. Talik's tattoos are very similar to those of her mother and cover almost the entirety of her body.

Possessions:
Fury Interceptor "Black Rose": Lord Kallei's former Fury Interceptor, taken by Talik once she discovered her master's demise. It was formerly named Dark Hammer under her former master, but Talik has rebranded the ship. It is colored jet black and tuned so there is minimal external lighting. Otherwise equipped pretty standard, the thrusters, and shields have been augmented for moving faster and handling harsh climates. It houses two speeder bikes in the cargo bay, as well as a revolving inventory of cargo meant for usage on various missions. The Black Rose is also equipped with full living quarters for the captain of the ship, with upgrades to be a bit on the luxurious side and even contains an exquisite bath. Something which Talik is particularly fond of having aboard. A modified pair of Eclipse Speeder Bikes, with a single mounted cannon sit in the cargo hold. The crew consists of imperial personal loyal to Kallei and her apprentice, along with a small set of droids aboard. A single M6 Series Imperial Medical Droid, single X-2 series Imperial Astromech Droid, and four Sith War Droids, Mark I. It also houses the ability for a few imperial soldiers to be brought aboard.
Wardrobe: Talik has a rather large wardrobe to satisfy her desire to have outfits to look good no matter the situation.
Unique Saber: Talik posses two curved hilt lightsabers, which she often dual-wields in battle. These sabers link together at the hilt to form a dual-bladed Saber Staff. The sabers are meant to easily link and de-link during combat.
Various Adventuring Gear: Talik posses some gear not typically associated with a sith, such as a grapple gun and the likes for retrieving holocrons within old ruins and the likes.
(Optional)Known interests of the candidate.
Linguistics of the Galaxy: Talik has a known interest in the linguistics of the galaxy, this being some more of personal interest than of furthering her own goals.
Combat Styles: Talik has shown in an interest various combat forms, constantly improving herself in using the force, lightsaber, unarmed, and blaster based combat to ensure brute effectiveness in the field.
Sex: Talik has no hesitation in engaging in some of the more... primal indulgences that go along with this. Typically she aims purely for the casual end of the spectrum, a satisfaction of her needs with no emotional attachment. Occasionally one may arise, and in those times they must also be dealt with, permanently.
Jedi and Sith History: Talik has an interest in the history of the Jedi and the Sith, finding it useful for understanding and exploiting both sides to know where they came from. Not to mention, it is a topic she genuinely finds interest in.
Holocron Hunting: Talik finds satisfaction in hunting down and recovering the lost Holocrons of the Sith. The more remote, dangerous, or well hidden a Holocron the more exciting.
Born the younger of the two twins to Sith Lord Atroxa on the Imperial planet of Korriban, Talik was found to be force sensitive whenever her mother tested the twins just after they were old enough to receive their sith tattoos. Pleased with the results of that test, Atroxa kept Talik at her side while Vasani was sold away to a Hutt on Nar Shaddaa. Her young life was very quickly straight to business before she was sent off to the Academy. Atroxa trained her daughter from a young age, tutoring in the basics of saber combat as well as the ways of the force. The goal of this being to ensure that her daughter would turn out to be anything except a disappointment in her time at the Sith Academy. In order to ensure that Talik stayed in line, Atroxa ensured that the young girl knew about the sister who had been sold away to the Hutt Biothem. Using this as a threat towards Talik should she ever fall behind in her studies, or try to resist the daily training. Due to this, Talik grew up constantly trying to please her mother, while also being assured that she was going to be superior to those within the Sith Academy when she entered. This, in turn, developed and eventually turned into the attitude of superiority that the girl carries herself with these days.
In the Academy, Talik was shown to be rather competent and above the average point of most of her classmates. This, of course, being due to the tutoring and training her mother instilled from a young age. A sith pureblood within in her class, Hitû Datea, soon came to be a bit of rival towards Talik. Both were ahead of their classes, but both also carried attitudes of superiority. The resulting rivalry became rather vicious and fueled by hatred for each other. This continued to grow as the Academy had the students start practicing against each other in the form of sparring. During these sparring matches, Hitû quickly discovered that Talik had not particularly built up a resistance to telekinetic attacks from the force. This led itself to the pureblood's little gang of classmates using this tactic to push Talik around in the hopes of wounding the girl. Thus, forcing her out of a spot where she could feasibly compete with the pureblood. Growing annoyed with their tactics, Talik continued to study and work yet harder at the Academy, working on and vastly improving her telekinetic defense. This all came to fruition towards the end of their years at the Academy, when she had finally managed to build herself to a point she could resist the attacks of her would-be bullies. Along with her vastly improved combat skills, the girl decided that perhaps a bit of revenge was in order. Over the next couple of days she hunted down and beat each of the little gang into submission, forcing them to acknowledge her as stronger than Hitû. When they had all been taken out of the picture, she turned her attention on the pureblood and gave him a dose of the medicine as well. Though she waited until the final sparring matches of their time at the academy to do so, combining her defense with the usage of Soresu to create a rather potent defense against him, which once he faltered turned into a brutal display of Ataru.
The result of her revenge in the ring and her training at the Academy was that Talik captured the attention of a Sith Lord just about the time she was graduating at the age of 16. Sith Lord Kallei, one of the mystery sphere of influence. Her rival from the Academy had been taken under the wing of a Sith Lord by the name of Ryutz, a rival of her Kallei herself. Under her new master, Talik practiced and developed her skills further while also ensuring Kallei's sphere of power steadily grew. The two worked well together, dropping would-be threats to the Empire while also recovering some of those lost secrets held within Holocrons. At times, Talik was even trusted by her mentor to take on solo missions. This, of course, led to the occasional failure in her assigned missions as Talik's short-fused anger was starting to show through a bit. Most of these situations being something like the girl losing a target after her rage cost them information, or she was outsmarted after being incited into violence. She also lost a holocron along the lines of the same principle, but despite this, she was overall a rather successful young apprentice. Her master working with her to use the short-fused anger to gather strength within the dark side, utilize it to draw even more power from the force and destroy her enemies.
The most recent mission that Talik was sent out on was to ensure a revanite sympathizer was... silenced to stop his treacherous teachings from spreading further. Sent out on her master's ship, the Dark Hammer, to ensure that this was resolved in an expedient manner. The girl succeeded on the mission and was rather efficient in the manner, heading back towards Korriban within about two days of being dispatched on the mission. Though things would not seem to be going well on the homefront, as her master was not responding to her hails onboard the ship. Though the reasoning to this was soon found out when she arrived at Korriban where they were supposed to meet once more, only to find evidence of a battle in the ruined building. Along with the corpse of her master left in the middle, clearly killed by some of his rivals. Deciding that she would pick the bones of his power sphere's corpse, she first claimed the ship as her own and made its crew aware of who was their new captain. Shortly after, she started to realize that the power sphere had already been claimed and taken by the apprentices of her rivals. Moving quickly, Talik had the ownership of the ship, now dubbed the 'Black Rose', confirmed to be hers. Then set out to try to find her next assignment, or maybe even a new mentor.
However, the Twi’lek did not find herself a new mentor. Instead, it was taking on one job after the other. Recovery of Holocrons, removal of political dissidents, assassinations of foreigners posing a threat to Imperial Operations, and evening the occasional chance to put down rebellious cells. During this time, she also set about amassing Lord Kallei’s former assets. Securing what wasn’t picked over, and then going after the one who had stolen said assets originally. Imagine how pleased the young Sith was when she finally discovered the one who had taken that power to be none other than her rival from the academy. So, she made arrangements. Soon enough, they were tasked on a mission together due to certain strings she had pulled.The mission did not go as was planned, when her rival had apparently decided that instead of infiltrating the small cell of Revanite Sympathizers, he would simply destroy them with bomb. The young pure blood did not escape ‘his’ trap, as the bomb detonated with Talik was still offsite. Killing the man.
At least, that was how she reported the mission going. Truly, that some hot blooded pure blood had decided to act on his own, especially one as prone to acting before thinking as her rival was not something that would seem suspicious to many. With her rival no more than a pile of ash among the ashes of the sympathizers, Talik set to work. Savaging his former sphere, those he stole from her master and what he had earned himself, Talik claimed all of that power for herself. Her ruthless efficiency allowed to girl to step above the ranks of a mere Apprentice, and set her well on her way towards climbing in the ranks. Now closer in power to a Lord than Apprentice, Talik has recently been named an Inquisitor. Many eyes are upon the young girl, as she has shown a rather meteoric rise in power, yet not the signs of collapsing on herself as many who had grabbed power before had done.

Name: Airus Vel Aath Species: Miraluka Homeworld: Coruscant Age: 26 Gender: Male Rank: Knight Master: N/A Former master(s): Master Vorlya Sisk, Master Sar Dan'ii (Deceased), Master Vant Turus Apprentice(s): Jedi Padawan Miarhi Gako (newly assigned)
Summary of Jedi's appearance.
Airus stands roughly two meters tall, with a muscular build that reflects his own constant training, his weight is around ninety kilograms thanks to his rather dedicated psychical training. Tufts of red hair often poke out from under his hood and the bandages that are wrapped around his head. Scars mostly healed along his chest, while usually wrapped in traditional Jedi robes Airus does favor bolder color choices closer to home or when traveling on trips that involve less crawling through the dirt.
With pale skinned tanned from field work and days spent looking for items or gathering information scholars within the temple requested. At a distance with his hood up, many assume Airus is much older than he appears upon lowering it the Miraluka's rather unblemished skin, with a strong jawline his usual clothes looking more akin to traveling pilgrim or settler as he assists in dig sites, archive recovery, and taking younglings on tours of Jedi heritage sites. He also keeps a small military locker with extra robes, tools, and equipment on board his ship so he can change clothes changing out equipment between missions.

Knight Vel Aath has shown a good understanding of the force and expanded his understanding of since having joined as a Lorekeeper, he is one of the youngest of our numbers and as such we often advise him in the ways of the force when he returns to Tython. His natural talents as Miraluka are also bolstered by his skills as a Force Empath, while we advise caution he has used to it help understand of the younglings he assists us in teaching about the history of Tython and the Jedi. His talent in the force exists but he has trouble honing it due to the high number of tasks we assign him. Though we have recently begun to try and determine if Airus can learn psychometry, mental ability is strong thus we believe he may have the skills needed to perform it.
However, he does lack in force powers meant for combat as we have tried to push him towards using the force to see himself through battle rather than a lightsaber, yet I feel he is at heart more suited to combat with a weapon than through the force. Though he has developed control and the ability to use Force Weapon at a young age, though I feel as he often handles many missions from our own Master Lorekeepers and assists in teaching as well he should remain focused on practical abilities and combat skills.
While I believe it would be best for my former Padawan to spend more time at the temple his skills in the field are an asset, his ability as an empath has made it easy for him to work with others. His choice in learning practical force abilities while disappointing to me has served him well, with the Sith contesting our dig sites, temples, sanctuaries, relics, and more having a capable and talented warrior in our ranks is a blessing I would not dare to argue.
That stated I cannot recommend he take a Padawan just yet, while I believe he is one of our rising stars and the future of the Lorekeepers. His work is valuable I feel if he proves unable to handle teaching and carrying out missions it could result in his own death, his Padawan's death, and the failure of the critical role he plays within our division of the Jedi Order. Furthermore, his emotional outburst during the Sacking of Coruscant has given me much pause, his connection with his Master was strong. If he connected with a pupil like that he could be an excellent teacher however that connection being broken again could drive him towards a path of darkness.
Airus is one of the finest warriors I know, I must admit I am still disheartened he ended up becoming Lorekeeper as his skills would make him a fine Sentinel and one I would have proudly served with. While I do do not see him as often Master Turus or share the connection with him that his late Master Sar Dan'ii did, I was the one who found him. Even at toddler age, he displayed a gift in the Force. I could sense him as he reached out to me, as such I spoke with his mother she agreed to his training. After that, I visited him several times while he was in training as a youngling, as a fellow Empath I hoped to teach him how to control his powers until he was ready.
In my recent mission on Coruscant searching the lower districts for information, we could recover from destroyed sections of the temple. Airus displayed several skills that impressed me, first as a Miraluka and no doubt thanks to the tutelage of his fellow Consulars he displayed much better control of his force sight allowing us to avoid danger on our way to the lower levels. Second, it seems while he by no means an expert he showed promise in carefully levitating a lightsaber into position to cut away dangerous debris and create a safe passage through the sewers, I believe he could benefit from attempting to learn more in telekinetic lightsaber combat.
After the long trek down, my age had begun to catch up with me some and Airus kindly performed a revitalization upon me after he had finished the data extraction and we had scoured the area for any lost objects that may have survived. While I believe he lacks the more well-rounded force powers of his fellow Lorekeepers he does have a grasp of the force and how it is best for him to use it. He has also shown to have grown more comfortable in control of his abilities as Empath yet able to use them to aid others and work towards solutions through honestly and compassion.
I believe Knight Vel Aath has the understanding to teach a Padawan and pass on important skills, while he does not follow convention among Lorekeepers or Consulars, I believe that is a good thing. He is different and it makes him able to handle challenges most other Jedi Lorekeepers might not able to normally handle. I believe he will be a good teacher and perhaps one day, a great Master Jedi.
While his emotional outburst was concerning his control has improved and the Council showed give him something to help reinforce his improvement. He still speaks little and seems to completely lack friends, that is not healthy even Jedi need companions to turn too or trust in times of need. I feel the more he tries to stand alone worried he might get to close to someone the more it may drive him away from the Order.
Compiled Reports on Knight Vel Aath's skills and abilities outside of requirements
Airus is rather considerate, doing work I fall behind on when he's back from missions, I've even caught him humming songs as he helps reorganize the holocron vault or sorts through data helping us to determine what is missing from the collection. Yet whenever I offer to help him with his work or take a break with him, he smiles and just tells me he would rather keep working. His very guarded for a Jedi, he enjoys the company but never wants to wants to build friendships.
I understand he had a rather emotional outburst after his Master's death and his promotion to Knight was delayed but... He shouldn't be sheltering himself from his fellow Jedi worrying loss might weaken him. I know Master Turus says he's doing this to protect himself as much as the rest of us, but he is one of is. He shouldn't have to try and hide everything to protect Jedi should overcome emotions, not turn them off.
He is good with the younglings and he's kept up with me whose nearly two decades his senior while handling every mission that's been asked of him on Tython and off.
I have to write this report now, the Council should know what happened with Airus, the rest of too I guess. Airus and I had been assigned to Dantooine in supporting roles I had been promoted before him but I heard upon our return he would be a Knight too since he'd completed the trials. We had been here for a few days we were supposed to get new orders when Master Dan'ii arrived but... We lost contact with Coruscant, only later did we know it had been attacked.
I was concerned, I had trouble making a plan... Airus helped center me along with a couple of the other Jedi present as well. Then he explained we needed to do something, so rather than stand around waiting we decided to head to the front lines. If the Sith were up to something we needed to end the battle here so we could find out what was going on.
We arrived and began to help with the defensive, gave the troops breathing room. But then we got the word, that no one could contact Coruscant. I saw Airus tense up, then he turned towards the commander. He asked where the enemy was thickest, where it would be hardest for his men to break through, he showed us a spot on the grid...
Airus said we should head there, that we couldn't leave until they were beaten here and that if Coruscant was attacked we needed to finish here to go help. I don't know if it was then but he just... He felt like he was wrestling with some turmoil. Trying to run ahead of the rest of us, we were emotional but... He seemed unlike himself and I don't say that lightly. We were all young Knights and older Padawans so I expected us to have issues staying perfectly to the code.
A Sith apprentice rushed the battle line with a group of droids, Airus got close to him first and struck him down, fast. I know Airus is good with a saber but I can't imagine how he dispatched a Sith that quickly even with troopers backing him up. I think he really used the dark side at this moment because he was even more capable than anyone of us. He gave a cry something about the Republic and charged, the Sith's lightsaber hovering behind him as he used to cover his flank as we lead a sudden charge.
Airus had inspired the soldiers the sudden surge caught the Imperial forces off guard, with a handful of Jedi and the beleaguered troopers we took over their defenses.
However, Airus was yelling at the Sith, panting, destroying their droids one after another when the enemy trench line was cleared. Then he just collapsed to his knees, I think he was hurting I believe he might have sensed his master's death. I just know that... Something was wrong, he was usually so nice and collected, he had never been like that before while I don't believe he would willingly use the dark it's hard to know what people are capable of now.
While Padawan Airus has shown competency with both his saber and the Force, his talents for research and notation is impressive. He has shown masterful understanding and care when in use of a holocron for learning. More impressively when I was asked to assist in Senate negotiations for a trade deal. My dutiful Padawan gathered research material and created a comprehensive guide for me to learn the nuances of the politics of the system while we were in route to Coruscant.
I believe that is how I managed to learn enough about the issue between the two to successfully accomplish the negotiations. Though I was slightly embarrassed when my Padawan later fell asleep during the Senate floor meeting though I admit it may have been the doing of the late nights he pulled. Though this ensured I could accomplish this important task.
Today Airus and I were escorting Imperials who had been captured during the fighting, they are the enemy and we fight them constantly. Yet Airus instead sat down near some of the soldiers and began talking with them. I know not if it was his sight as a Miraluka or gifts as an Empath that allowed him to see what they felt and to help ease their fears but he spoke with them for a while. He even brought out chocolates he had purchased on Coruscant and shared them with the prisoners, while some of the Republic troopers thought it wrong that Airus would give them any dignity he did not pause.
He just... Saw them as another living being, scared and trapped here he tried to help them while he is clever I believe his greatest asset is currently how he can speak with others with complete understanding. He shows compassion in a time of war, much like any true Jedi he knows how to give freely of himself even those who he once fought. Though I must admit it does come at a cost his understanding had him questioning why the Republic used such harsh methods to transport the prisoners though I tried to explain that it was due to Imperials being capable of incredible feats of cunning like capturing a ship they were held prisoner on he did seem to still harbor doubts.
While I was only Vel Aath's master for a couple of years due to us suspending his promotion because of the sacking of Coruscant and attempting to rebuild and reorganize. I must say, his talent for teaching and his knowledge of history have had a strong impact on the rest of the Lorekeepers. His martial skills and abilities in the force are still present but I have not seen the great empathy for Sith and Empire my old friend Master Dan'ii spoke of. He does not even speak of them, his lightsaber training has also advanced as I see him often sparring or practice alone.
I have also seen him redouble his efforts, with no major emotional changes in him since we warned him after the fall of Coruscant. He connects well to his fellow Jedi and I believe he is now avoiding building a strong connection any members of the Jedi Order to protect himself from experiencing the pain of loss again. I feel it is a mature and reasonable choice... But perhaps not the best for him in the long term. While I have expressed that a Padawan loss may worsen his condition, the successful training of a Padawan may help Airus move past this and allow him to make gains in further abilities as an Empath.
That said, I continue to argue with Master Sisk over if he should train one now she argues he has shown growth and control while I argue for patience. Now fellow archivists like Knight Nerel have asked me to pass them over for teaching recommendations for Airus when they have more to offer. Knight Vel Aath is capable and has no blemishes except for that outburst but I maintain that incident alone is enough reason he should not train Padawan perhaps for decades. I was his teacher while Master Sisk has watched over him since he joined the Order she should be barred from further discussion on this topic.
Moving away from my colleague's interference believe it how he copes throwing himself into training trying to be ready for the next fight. While I'm afraid he might never have that same kindness his Master found in him before he has demonstrated a skill I believe Master Dan'ii taught him. Force weapon, he has been practicing with blades, walking sticks, even a few of training staves. While his focus on saber combat is uncommon for a Consular I believe he feels most at home working in the archives, he is more relaxed here. As such I allow him time here to work in the library and teach history classes while keeping him on a constant mission rotation he has skills and I intend to use them to rebuild our library to be a great home of knowledge once more.
Since I am the most senior member aware of Airus's training I will be writing this report. Airus Vel Aath studied Soresu during his time at the temple, though he advanced faster than the other students. This caught Battlemasters Dan'ii by surprise, normally very bookish students prefer the force. After his trials, she surprised me and took Airus as her Padawan though I admit it was a very good match even if Airus did want myself or one of the Lorekeepers as a teacher. He wrote to me often and when he did not we would meet and talk within the temple, I was still a recruiter at the time.
Master Dan'ii believed Airus would benefit most from the more defensive styles so she taught him Djem So and Shien as well, Airus showed great promise of even building his own style. However after the sacking of Coruscant a day before his promotion ceremony he seemed to have added on more skill to his list. Makashi, while he has had no formal instruction I believe he has been training with a Holocron in the use of dueling style, as he wants to be ready to defeat the Sith who took his master from him.
I think this may be what he changed the emotional damage he was dealt into, resolve to be ready for a fight against the Sith. He is no stranger to combating the Dark Side, he's fought before but I believe he is trying to become as capable as his Master. While a worthy goal, I don't think trying to be like her is the answer to his problem, Airus must learn to fight like himself rather than Master Dan'ii.
Knight Vel Aath recent performance has been impressive, we note him using Forms two, three, five(Shien and Djem So), and Jar'kai. While I would ask how he became so well rounded, I know it is due to his own natural affinity for saber combat and of course his former Master, may she rest peacefully in the Force. As such I have begun advising Airus on how to train in telekinetic Lightsaber combat which his master was so famous for, I do not think he will be ready to use it for years to come but I do hope to guide him so that her legacy lives in one of her brightest pupils.
While he did display skill in using his sabers telekinetically during his outburst it lacked refinement and while I believe he channeled rage in doing so. Jedi have lashed out and anger but the Knight he was with was even shocked by the ferocity he showed. I will not speak ill of the dead but Airus should have been so strongly connected to her as to cause something like this.
As for the issue of his second lightsaber's creation and origin. I believe it was made as a gift for him once he had graduated by Master Dan'ii, since Airus had always been impressed with her multiple saber skills. It is not one of Master Dan'ii sabers nor does it use one of her crystals. So please dispell the rumors that Airus looted the saber, it is upsetting the young man I am sure. I have done my best to quash rumors among the library staff and assistants.
Detailed notes on political influence and associates.
None... Yet.
Detailed notes on known rivals and enemies, outside and within the Order and Republic.
Unidentified Sith who slew Battlemaster Sar Dan'ii
List and description of other known associates, including intimates.
Knight Milo Nerel: A Jedi archivist who works alongside Airus one of the younger members of the Lorekeepers who has tried to befriend Airus. Believes Master Turus is unfairly harsh on Airus for possibly using the dark side and should work on forgiveness.
Knight Kuly Sol: (Deceased.) A human Jedi Knight who led a group of Knights and Padawans at the battle of Dantooine. Reported Airus for possible Dark side use, died in orbit around Dantooine, transport destroyed. With her report and other witness testimony, Airus had to spend two years under observation before being allowed to receive his promotion to Knight.
Master Sar Dan'ii: (Deceased) A Sephi Coruscant Temple Battlemaster who was Knight Vel Aath's Master and a well-known user of telekinetic lightsaber combat. Airus was tutored by her as a saber instructor as a youngling before being selected as her Padawan. He forged a strong connection viewing her a sort of mother figure, having known her for nearly ten years and having her as a constant for most his development out of childhood. Airus was shaken badly by her death which he felt through the force glimpsing only her final moments which occasionally reappear in his nightmares.
Master Vorlya Sisk: A former Human Jedi recruiter who discovered Airus as a toddler and brought him to the order, a fellow empath. Promoted to Master and reassigned as a Watchmen to Coruscant system after the battle of Coruscant. Has a strong belief in Knight Vel Aath, originally wanted to have him as her Padawan. Also one of the only people to have knowledge of Airus's twin sister also in the Jedi Order.
Master Vant Turus: An elderly Caamasi Jedi Historian, Airus Vel Aath's Master after the death of Master Dan'ii and currently keeping an eye on Airus for the Council. While the Order was in disarray after the fall it was Master Turus who advised waiting to make sure Airus could handle being a Knight before promoting him. However, most others felt his fears are unfounded after Airus has shown no troubling signs openly after his Master's death, Master Turus still does not feel he ready, however.
List of all known ownerships, including vessels, (non-standard) equipment, and locations.
Defender Light Corvette, with a library data stack rather than a meeting room.
Jedi Lightsaber training holocron on Makashi.
A trunk of spare clothes, tools, and holos of his time on Coruscant. Located on his ship.
A curve hilted lightsaber made for him by Master Dan'ii, the blade is yellow same color as Master Dan'ii's sabers.
Psychological evaluation of Knight Airus Vel Aath
Calm, thoughtful, collected, and well mannered. Airus Vel Aath is a credit to his teachers, showing many skills which the Jedi Order can put to good use. However, Master Turus may be correct in that he has lingering issues the warning sign he pointed out was Airus turning towards using Makashi after training in only defensive forms before the Battle of Coruscant.
It could be a warning or it could be he simply felt he could not fight well enough blade to blade, many of us had revelations that changed us after that battle. However, the warning for me came after Airus was sent another prisoner escort mission. His departed former Master reported that Airus showed compassion even too enemy troops, I feel he may be pushing back against that compassion. I believe he may not be ready to express himself to others he doubts others intentions prefer to avoid difficult issues rather than face them.
He may be trying to suppress his own natural talent as an empath and that is not healthy while assigning him a Padawan may assist in this, however, assigning him a Padawan may force him to trust and open up again that however is up to the council to decide.
Airus meanwhile may not be dealing with his grief, I believe he is training himself and taking these missions one after another to avoid asking questions on his Master's death and to prevent himself from looking into the Sith who slew her. In time I believe he may want to pursue this Sith and defeat them himself, I am unsure of it right now, that will require further research and interviews. Finally, I believe he may be suffering from constant visions of the battle of Coruscant possibly due to his connection to his Master showing him her emotions and thoughts near the end of her life.
List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into a restricted database.
Due to his talent as an Empath and Force Sight he can often guess what other people are feeling usually tries to help, many people find it hard to deal with someone who knows how they feel. Not to mention how people outside the Jedi order react when someone knows your feelings, then tries to tell you how to deal with them.
As an Empath Airus often has trouble when facing another force sensitive or someone he must face as he ends their life. Finding it difficult to take a life through training he has dealt with most of the hesitance, however, when he can feel the emotions coming off someone who is afraid of death he has allowed them to escape rather than end them.
Airus is also afraid of building connections, while on assignment to Dantooine Airus lashed out after feeling the death of his Master. He joined several Republic soldiers and fought against the Sith while other Jedi did the same, Airus showed violent tendencies. His fellow knights reported he had taken a second saber with the Force off of a Sith and cut down Sith with reckless abandon. The Council then had him reassigned and he spent two more years as Padawan after the Sacking of Coruscant.
Airus worries he will not live up to the legacy of his Master, also thinking of how he might not become a Master himself. This was reinforced when he was forced to wait two more years after being told he would be promoted to Knight. Believing it was because the Council considered him unworthy of unbecoming a Knight.
Airus works hard to prove himself but he exhausts himself constantly leaving little time for bonding with fellow Knights after training and missions. He is considered a bit of outsider even by others who trained with him at the temple, well regarded by others he is often alone because of rumors about him or because he simply has no time to make friends with other Jedi.
Politics, while he has the skills to negotiate and bargain with others Airus is often bored to tears by politics finding it far more fascinating to read about than to experience. He was noted to have fallen asleep during long senate meetings, saved only by the fact they could not tell with his lack of eyes.
known interests of the force-user.
Airus is a Jedi Historian, while that entails much bookkeeping it also requires writing skills whether reading or writing Airus is happy. Many Jedi elder Jedi have advanced skills in writing and deciphering old texts, while Airus lacks the years of experience he does leap at the chance to do the work. Airus most enjoys the work of documenting and writing up accounts of history and events. He has also been seen writing in late hours of the night in the library on a personal project his fellows have yet to learn anything about.
Combat, surprisingly for one of the Jedi bookworms Airus is, in fact, a fan of combat enjoying training and sparring with others. He also enjoys exercise and practices moving meditation regularly. He practices regularly in saber combat and while he keeps it training in force combat he does not push to learn more of it with more focus on his saber skills for the time being.
Airus is a rather capable musician and seems to have an ear for several instruments. He hums and sings to himself while working as it seems to help him deal with more tedious jobs.
Airus has learned to cook for himself and has a surprising amount of competence in the kitchen more than likely due to his formers masters love of preparing her own meals.
Notes on skillset specialization, if applicable.
As a rather well-rounded Jedi Airus works well on most missions, however, his knowledge makes him useful when working to locate Jedi teaching or important artifacts. However, his understanding and compassion make him good at allowing very different Jedi and even non-Jedi personal concerns to addressed and concerned.
Skilled in combat he is very capable in a fight and as such he assigned missions that could result in combat or to serve in dangerous areas. Airus is capable enough that they feel he can handle threats from most enemies he may encounter in the field.

Knight Airus Vel Aath, Padawan Assignment Interview
"Why I want to train a Padawan? Well... I mean it's kinda simple, but I think that knowledge is the most important thing. Sure the archives hold a lot of it... And the Holocrons hold even more but, a teacher changes information into something you can use, things that are real. Skills, abilities, idea, philosophies, they need someone to focus them to help you figure out what you need to become you."
"My... My master did that for me, Master Dan'ii... She gave the ability to see past more than just me liking reading and writing. She gave me more than the skills to use my saber, she taught why it was important. The impacts we make on other people when we do these, why the work we do changes the galaxy and how we can make it better through that change."
"Being a teacher means... It means it will be my job to give someone else that insight, it means I will be able to help someone else discover the things I couldn't learn from the temple. That I needed to be taught by a Master and in the field, the most important part though... Is that the lessons we are taught by our masters carry on the legacy of a Jedi, the stories I tell my Padawan and journies I experience with my Padawan will be stories and journies they will know when they train a student. It means in a way... We live on through the people we teach so in a sense as long as the knowledge we leave helps them keep going we never forgotten here or in the force.
A retrospective take on the Great Sith War and the causes that led to Mandalorian War: By Airus Vel Aath
An Annotated History of major trade deals from the Outer Rim: By Airus Vel Aath
Dawn of a Knight's Dream: A Jedi who has abandoned the Order after the battle of Malchor five is caught alone by an inexperienced Mandalorian warrior. Before the Jedi is executed they are cornered, pirates have come, now old enemies must work together. The book features a very accurate depiction of a Jedi and Mandalorian Neo-Crusader, with Mandalorian's training being far below that of more veteran warrior, highlighting how the Mandalorian forces were taking every fighter they could.
The pair form a mutual relation evading pirates in the system that culminates when the Mandalorian admits her feelings, forcing the Jedi to speak of what he wants now that he is not part of the Jedi Order. Both resolve to escape and lay down their weapons after escaping the pirates finding a world to just retire on. They are successful and go on to settle on the planet Concord Dawn, starting a family.
Praised for an insightful view of the Outer Rim after the Mandalorian Wars. It gave a very detailed view of why the war started and how in the end it only harmed both sides. This was the first novel published by Acertya Brayle, with all of the profit the writer made off of the work going to helping refugees in the outer rim. The novel is rather popular among the Core worlds, Mandalorian systems, the Outer Rim, and rumored to have some following even among the Jedi and Sith.
An Ember among the Blind: A Vahla Cultist separated from his fellow nomads is given shelter and food by Miraluka colonists. Taught that the dark is the only way perhaps there is more to learn from these other force sensitives? The Vahla cultist argues with the Miraluka often over their views of the galaxy and why it is wrong to use dark powers. Yet over time, he is won overseeing the Luka Sene using the force in simple practical ways and how they study and share knowledge so freely.
Eventually, his people return to take him back with them however choosing to do so by force the Embers of Vahla fall upon the Miralukan colony and a battle between the two force sensitive races looms. Embers seeing the Miraluka as allies of the Jedi, while the Miraluka while peaceful prepare to defend their homes. Coming to a head, the young Vahla cultist joins the defenders explaining his people's tactics refusing to allow the kindly Miraluka to be destroyed by his own bitter race.
Wounded while destroying the Vahla's ship he loses his sight and left arm. However, he heals and begins to see through the force embracing the Miraluka. His remaining people are shown to now live side by side with the Miraluka having a home among others like them. As the former cultist joins the Miraluka who rescued him in living together discussing what they will do from then on.
Praised for taking a look at force sensitive groups outside of the Jedi and Sith discussing their differences in philosophy. The novel itself was applauded by Miraluka for an impressive understanding of Luka Sene and Miralukan people. The wider galaxy found it appealing as it was engaging as well it seemed, reviewing well though not to the success of the writers first novel. Popular in the Core worlds, Expansion region, and strangely scattered throughout Imperial territory. The novelist's profits were all donated homeless refugees.
Eternity with my Enemy: An Imperial Medic and Republic Commando on Alderaan are trapped in a foxhole after an artillery shell has damaged both soldiers sight. Unable to see each other they form a friendship as they realize they aren't so different while waiting out the barrage of artillery. The two discussing their families as time goes on both become suspicious of the other but decide it's not worth it to risk a fight.
The shelling goes on for near a day, they both discussing what they want to do with their lives and the people they wish to go home too. Both mention how they lost someone in the war, alluding to family members. However, they laugh talking about their respective units confirming for both their different alignments which causes them both to think about what to do next.
When the artillery stops, they both start to move from the crater only to hear blaster fire and jump back in. It continues for a moment as both finally confess their allegiances, then both state they would surrender now than continue to cower here. Both stating they are friends that they will both protect each other no matter who they surrender to in the end. Standing up with their hands up hearing someone approach, they both were about to state a surrender before a Killik's fell upon them. In the end, it is revealed that Empire shelled their own position disturbing a Killik nest to prevent Republic forces from advancing through a sector.
Released just after the signing of the treaty of Coruscant this novel was almost banned on several worlds believing it harbored pro-Imperial sentiment. Yet the novel itself was reported to be more of a discussion on the horrors of war and how those caught in the middle of war can be all too similar. This novels profits went caring for displaced peoples throughout the galaxy. The novel while not popular among the core worlds found much popularity among the pro-peace planets and among veterans. While not officially sold in the Empire it has gained some following.
Airus walked through the streets of Coruscant, he'd come here to his home after the sacking of the city. He'd been born here, while he'd been raised in the halls of the Jedi Temple and listening to the thrum of a starship's engine most of his time as a Padawan. This had always been home, he walked with his cloak wrapped tightly around him, though it was hot he didn't want to be noticed. The Jedi were not popular on Coruscant and he could only imagine how a crowd might react to him.
He moved slowly careful to avoid the mess of auras moving through the streets, the colors swirled and changed with each new person that moved into view but as a collective, he could feel fear, of course, it was easier to see it all. Airus could sense large Trandoshan approaching from behind the large alien was looking for a fight and Airus didn't want to be his target. So the Jedi turned his head as if to look at the neon of a bar his head bent to hide the covers over his eyeless face. Airus watched the presence of the Trandoshan stalk further and further through the crowd, pushing through it. Airus breathed a sigh of relief avoiding yet another possible instance of attack for being a Jedi. Passing by a bar he saw at those inside the club, even those escaping into the nightlife were filled with lingering fear and dread as they drank and watched dancers perform.
Carefully he picked his way through the streets being mindful to take back alleys where he could notice if a certain aura lagging behind him was following him or just happened to take the same route. Of course today it was more paranoia than logic winning out after he'd heard the Jedi were leaving Coruscant he understood that popular opinion was against them. He worried citizens may start targeting Jedi blaming themselves for the death of so many innocents. But no one followed through the alleyways as he returned to the elevator and begin to ascend back to the surface, back towards ships that would take the Jedi to a new home.
Airus broke into a sprint he had been sent to protect a dig site which may contain Jedi relics. He had felt an unease before from the workers but now he could see the auras with killing intent. They were Imperials or pirates trying to take relics for themselves. It didn't matter they were a threat to the innocents here at the dig site that meant he could take any chances. Airus counted six combatants as he crouched behind a crumbling wall they were advancing on surrendering workers.
Not only could he feel the fear from the workers on the other side of the collapsing wall, but he could also see the advancing pirates. Three more were moving around the edge of dig site to head down towards the ruins. However, he couldn't engage them first, he had to protect civilians. He could tell they were pirates just by the outline of their gear, the armor they wore was nothing like the Imperials. They were all Weequay pirates the pheromones they used allowed for silent communication meaning they were probably discussing how to kill the civilians.
Carefully Airus drew his sabers then leaped up over the wall landing in front of them Airus carefully watching each as he moved into his defensive posture. "Leave now and no one has to die, pirates. I don't want to fight but I will defend these people." They seemed to consider it a moment the aura of two of the six shifted color as they considered walking away. Yet suddenly one took a shot at Airus, the Jedi quickly reflecting the bolt back at him. The rest began to fire as Airus focused on their feelings, the emotions they showed and felt. Each shot was anticipated and returned when he was unprepared to block he gracefully twisted and turned his body to avoid the blaster fire of that pirates.
The fight was short but loud, Airus knew the three other pirates would come running so he ran towards the mouth of the ruins, he could see them just below him. Setting explosives, they weren't here to loot to the place they had been paid to destroy it. While Airus hated the idea of damaging the ruins of such an interesting piece of history the site itself could not be lost. He thrust each blade into the ground cutting a hole into the chamber, noticing the soft thrum of a generator below reminded him that they had no light save for work lights.
He pulled the power cable from the generator with the force, the three pirates began to back towards a single point of light in the room. As they did Airus dropped down on to one of the Weequay pirates. Planting his boot against the top Weequay's skull Airus jumped into the darkness leaving one knocked out. The other two rather panicked pirates, frantically searched the dark as Airus spoke calmly, trying to talk them down once again.
"You've lost, just surrender and I promise you will have a fair trial." He offered, however before he had a chance offer more words. The larger of the two remaining pirates unslung his rifle and fired into the darkness. He was wildly firing but Airus was hiding behind a fallen chunk of the ceiling, currently focusing on removing the bomb. Using the force he picked up the explosive as the two circled back to back around the single point of light in the room. They were waiting for the Jedi to make a move, committed to the job until the end it seemed.
Knowing he had to get the bomb out of here Airus laid his back against a fallen piece of ceiling. He took several deep breaths as they stopped firing. Steadying himself, he rushed towards the pair he igniting his saber flipping over the first landing between them. He quickly thrust the blade into the heart of the first pirate spinning around slicing into the second pirate.
Airus turned off his sabers placing them on his hip. The bomb still in one hand when he noticed the aura of the unconscious changed to one rage and hatred with a simple motion that pirate armed the bomb with the detonator. Realizing this Airus had quickly dropped the explosive and jumped for the entrance he'd created earlier. The explosion channeled upwards by the hole he'd made caught him in the air sending careening into a wall cracking it.
The Jedi was knocked out by the force of the detonation alone and had quite a few injuries when he was found by the dig site personal.

Name: Ca'tra Ordo Species: Mandalorian (Human) Age: 35 Gender: Female Clan: Ordo Specialization: Blaster combat (Pistol, Heavy blaster), swordplay, and negotiations. Planet of origin: Ordo Current area of operation: Coruscant
Detailed description of the warrior.
Ca'tra Ordo is a fair skinned woman with a muscular build from her youth spent training under her father's tutelage to one day replace him as leader of the clan. Standing at around one point eight meters tall and weighing just around seventy-five kilograms as she would say it's all muscle. The tattoos along her right arm were given to her by her older sister who did them so that they could identify each other remains should they die in battle. Dressed often in her personal armor when out of it she prefers loosing fits or practical clothes, usually wearing that when performing weight training or sparring with a partner.
Report on all relevant skills and talents, including level of skill.
Expert diplomat, an unusual skill for a Mandalorian but Ca'tra was tutored by several former Republic Senators, other major players in Republic space. She also learned the court manners and rules of Imperial culture, once the Imperials returned to known space her mother and father believed it best that she be able to speak and commune with those outside of Mandalore. Rather than sheltering her in tradition they encouraged her to learn and follow her own ways while keeping to her Mandalorian heritage.
Fluent in several languages Galactic Standard Basic, Mando'a, Durese, Miralukese, High Galactic, and Imperial basic. Languages come easily to her and she practices them constantly.
Capable weapon and armor smith, as with all Mandalorians Ca'tra has had to learn to improve her own armor and weapons without help. As such she had upgraded her armor several times before, communication's relay improvement, Beskar armor reforged in her own style, jetpack, Beskad, Kal, vambrace weaponry, and a custom blaster cannon tuned for rate of fire and damage.
Ca'tra Ordo is believed to the next to lead the clan taking over from her father who even in old age has held onto the title of Clan leader fiercely. Clan Ordo is strong willed and is one of the most intact clans having been rebuilt far earlier than the other clans, while they follow the Mandalore they hope to bend the ear of the Mandalorians to hear their ideas and perhaps join them in. Ca'tra training was spared no expensive in learning to talk and convince others, she has studied history of the Jedi Order, the Sith Empire, and Mandalorian people knowing these she wishes to show others the lessons they can learn from their history. Like how the Sith will inevitably turn on them and they may not stay Mandalorian under the rule of the Empire.
Report on known combat experience, training and weapons training
Ca'tra's blaster cannon combat training is second to none, after Canderous Ordo rebuilt Clan Ordo the Clan began to focus on the weapons training for his clan and rearming them for coming conflict. They were warriors with a sworn mission first, mercenaries second. As such the warriors of Clan Ordo learned how to perform suppressing fire, fire while moving, and accurate aim a blaster cannon for maximum effect on enemy units.
Ca'tra personal weapon of choice is her Beskad, a heavy traditional blade of Mandalorian Iron as useful as a club as it is a sword. An understanding of a heavy blade and how to use it while encased in heavy armor which could hamper movement. Even learning how to use her vambrace weaponry and jet pack in a duel to maneuver and survive battles with those who are less armored and more agile.
Blaster pistol training began young just like blaster cannon training, learning to quickly draw and pick targets. Learning to judge maximum range without a helmets heads up display. Marksman ship and vital point targeting were taught as you needed to hit the weak points in the armor. Most importantly depending on that pistol to protect your life when caught in spaces to small for a cannon or in a place where you might not be able to carry one.
Opinion on the Neo Crusader movement vs traditional Crusader?
She leans more Neo Crusader but believes both are wrong. War breeds strength but war should be tempered with a careful selection of opponent, while ensuring they remain armed and skilled enough to beat those opponents. Mandalorians are warriors first but they should also look to the greater stage to protect themselves from becoming pawns in someones else's plan once again. Mandalorians should fight for Mandalorians, not for Sith, not for the Republic, not the Jedi.
Detailed notes on common/favored employers and any noteworthy contacts.
Clan Ordo.
Pirate hunting in Hutt Space.
The destruction of the Blueblood corsairs pirate gang, former inner rim nobles who had gone pirate out of boredom and wanting to simply gain attention. It worked and their parents placed contracts on their heads for them to be brought in alive, ended up being assisted by a Jedi Master and Jedi Padawan who found respect for and maintained communication with, even with her people technically being at war with the Jedi.
Jedi Battlemaster Sar Dan'ii and Jedi Knight Airus Vel Aath was a good friend of Ca'tra having encountered her and her Padawan when the two traveled into Hutt Space where she was working at the time. Ca'tra stayed in contact with Master Dan'ii and even spared often her Padawan Airus Vel Aath. On a few occasions Ca'tra attempted to battle Sar Dan'ii the Sephi Jedi proved far more than she could handle it also showed her that Jedi could be just as threatening as Sith on the battlefield.
Detailed notes on known rivals and enemies.
Sith Lords seeking to manipulate Mandalore, Imperials Agents trying to make Mandalore tied to the Empire, and those who would make them servants of anyone else.
List and description of other known associates outside the Clan.
Tychus Alastor: A fellow soldier, one who has found himself in politics after the war. Ca'tra views Tychus as cautiously as she does with joy, he served and fought the Empire. She believes he is one the Senators who would back her play with little convincing. While they have had a few encounters she seems to want to sit down with him to gain his trust and perhaps assistance going forward.
O'Keemi T'Sombe: Ca'tra believes O'keemi is more like a Jedi than a politician, always looking to help or give to others, she is impressive in the sheer scope of her generosity. However, Ca'tra believes she is not well suited to making hard choices or ones that could get people killed, sometimes their is no choice that saves people sometimes it's a choice between bad and bad, you just have choose which you can live with.
List of known belongings, including but not limited to planetary surface property, civilian and military vessels, vehicles, weapons, tools.
Personal items: Custom Beskar'gam, hand-tooled Mandalorian blaster cannon, Mandalorian vambrace weaponry, jet pack, Beskad, Kal, and heirloom blaster pistol.
Holdings: Ajuur-class heavy cruiser, Coruscanti sky rise apartment, a small personal armory, and Clan house on Ordo.
Psychological evaluation of warrior.
Ca'tra Ordo is one of the most driven women among the Mandalorians, she pushes forward working hard to achieve her goals and save her home from Sith rule. She also has deeply driven to become the Mandalore so that she can effect this change quickly however she'll need to be much stronger and have strong allies on her side. Even learning skills usually thought to be beyond on the Mandalorians while also being trained and groomed to take over the clan one day.
She views most people as another kill notch on her belt, with Jedi and Sith being treated more as a rare treat to fight as she enjoys difficult fights. Even in defeat against an enemy she smiles and laughs in good nature though she often accompany it with a punch to the shoulder. Ca'tra also very emotional and very cynical towards the Empire, it's belief and goal, as well as the leadership of the Sith who have betrayed Mandalorians twice before.
Lastly she is rather loud and rambunctious with her friends but quiet and reserve the rest of the time often looking deep in though as she constantly has to rethink and plan out what she is doing to improve her own skills or fulfill her ambitions which remain lofty and currently unchallenged. Her favorite past time however is tell stories she has heard or read, or even a few from own life.
List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into restricted database.
Prideful- While she is young, Ca'tra believe her goals are what is best for Mandalore and often has trouble seeing others point of view. She has difficultly accepting other ideas on how things should work.
Eager brawler- Eager for a fight a small slight will easily excite her so that she can have an excuse to test her own mettle in many situations.
Heavy Drinker- A trait she inherited from her mother she drinks whenever she can claim her own personal time packing it away to get drunk believing it's her only way to relax around others.
Less experience fighter: While she has faced pirates and such she'd never fought against military targets. She can handle herself however she cannot depend on her own abilities to be good on the battlefield having learned less than her sister and father in the ways of war.
Commitaphobe- Has dated for several years, then dumped each one over minor reasons as she tries not to get attached believing that no one will make her truly happy. Usually seeing the worst in committed relationship and often making snide comments about that prefer to have shallow and meaningless relations with others in terms of romance.
Subdued an entire gang in a shoot out with them before advancing on the leaders to capture them.
Has begun to win the support of the Senate in trying to get Mandalorian support moved over to the Republic.
Learned to upgrade and adapt her own gear rather than depend on others to do it for her.
Has convinced other Clans Mandalorians to join her at their consulate on Coruscant creating as actual diplomatic group.
Major failures on record. Confidential.
Three failed bounties in her entire career. One on a Gen'dai she could not would enough to bring in alive. Second a rogue force sensitive who had murdered people on Nar Shaddaa, unable to retrieve him before another Bounty Hunter claimed him. Three, she accepted a contract on a sniper who had been picking off Imperial troopers bringing supplies on Alderaan. Discovering a twelve year old girl she refused the bounty and took the child in as a member of Clan Ordo.
Has made no progress in bringing the Mandalore or a majority of the clans in to negotiate with the Republic mostly due to the lack of interest by the Mandolorians. She also has to little power to attempt to convince them directly though it has been growing since the treaty was written.
Failed to defeat her father the first time she tried to take over as leader of the Clan, her sister told her not to return to Ordo until she could defeat their father.
Personal biography, as detailed by the subject for use in Mandalorian archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
Born on the planet Ordo to two loving parents, her mother a Mandalorian artist and teacher, while her father was the leader of Clan Ordo. Her older sister and herself were trained from a young age in combat, while their mother pushed them both to gain an education and expand the knowledge base they could pool from. Ca'tra's sister focused on art and history of Republic and the Mandalorians, hoping to paint memories of great battles and tales from her family.
Ca'tra meanwhile favored learning history but lacked a flair for the artistic like her sister instead she proved herself a better warrior than her sister. Quickly being groomed to take over the clan one day, her father set about teaching her the Ordo clans specialty of blaster cannon combat. As she grew up she showed great skill in debate and the more embroiled the Mandalorians became in fighting the Republic the more clan Ordo wished to alter the nature of their agreement with the Sith Empire.
Ca'tra was raised among clans who knew the truth that Canderous Ordo and his close friend the Jedi Knight Revan had disclosed to them. This Sith Empire had caused the Mandalorian Wars, they had used Mandalorians to die for a cause they had no business being involved with. It was them who saw the clans scatter and weaken, even before that Exar Kun's Sith Empire had broken the Crusaders using them as pawns against the Republic.
Ca'tra saw what this was, the Mandalorians didn't hate the Republic. No, instead throughout history they had been forced to fight the Republic on the behalf of others they make have taken issues with the Jedi or Republic's governance but that was another matter. Instead the Mandalorians had been made pawns of, cowardly used and abused by the Sith and the Empire. It would happen again Ca'tra believed and this time Mandalorians might not recover.
Deciding to learn diplomacy, her father found it odd but agreed happy to please his daughter's need for further education. Ca'tra began to learn about debate, public forums, discussion, politics on a wider scale, species differences, cultural differences, Jedi and Sith in larger galactic frame, and such. As her knowledge grew she began to understand that the Republic while often slow and clumsy was in fact not some lumbering beast trying to eradicate them but instead something similar to a consensus of clans coming to a decision. The Republic's version of a Mandalore was not chosen by combat or who wore a helmet but instead by who would do the best job as voted by the members.
Ca'tra found this system almost refreshing, while she believed combat was the best place to determine a persons true colors. The process had flaws but so did the Mandalorian system, Mandalore the Lesser proved that easily, not to mention how other Mandalore's were pushed into war by the Sith. Ca'tra believes the clans should have power to unseat the Mandalore if they do not believe he represents the will or good of the Mando'ade. A great warrior does not make a great leader, Mandalore the Lesser proved that well he was strong and capable but rather foolish and easily led.
After years of training and learning of the Republic, Sith, and her own people she decided it was time to test her own skills. At eighteen Ca'tra did what most Mandalorians do, she took to hunting beginning in hunting beasts in Mandalorian space before moving to huntin bounties in Hutt space. She faced pirates, criminals, slavers, and other scum from all walks of life testing and learning her own limits and pushing them constantly. It was during her time in Hutt space she met her first Jedi years into her career, a pair of them no less a Master and Padawan she expected them to be condescending or tell her that violence wasn't the way.
Instead they offered to let her turn in the bounty having only come to rescue captured Republic crewmen who were to be sold into slavery by the pirates. They were respectful, the Padawan even laughed and chatted with her about combat and history, he didn't react with fear or mistreat her. The Master of the pair even joined in the discussion about combat tactics and best weapons to face off against multiple enemies.
They traveled back to the local cantina, where that evening Airus and her dueled she was astounded by the blade work. It was unreal, a style that by all rights should not work with sword play turning and spinning with momentum and clashing the blade against lightsaber was unreal. She understood in that moment why the Mandalorians wanted to challenge the Jedi, they didn't disappoint in combat. After that she tried to challenge Master Dan'ii, it took a few second before she was unarmed with a lightsaber hovering against her throat. Now she knew the fear the galaxy felt for the Jedi and the joy the Mandalorians felt in finding an enemy that could truly face them.
It was only a few years after this the war came to an end, with that end the Empire had secured a treaty that gave very favorable terms and the fighting ceased. Ca'tra understood this was her chance, having grown older and more experience she returned home to petition the Mandalore to become an ambassador to the Republic. Her father meanwhile grew older, as others from throughout the clan looked inward hoping to challenge his leadership. Ca'tra returned home while waiting for the Mandalore's decision regarding her chance at becoming an ambassador, she challenged her father's position.
Ca'tra fought with all she had but her father skill a warrior and not yet completely passed his prime forced her to yield and told her not to return until she was ready to lead the clan. She had to get stronger if she was going to finish the mission Canderous left to his people, to save the Mandalorians from the Sith Empire and secure Mandalorian independence and gain the Republic as an ally not a ruler.
The decision was returned shortly after, she was awarded the position and other Mandalorians from those who were trusted knew Ordo's mission and the truth they had been given flocked to help her set up this position. Ca'tra found herself finally able to make headway, her past few years on Corucants have been winning trust and allies showing that Mandalorians are not monsters and genocidal monsters. It has been an uphill battle but now, she has attention of the Republic interested clans and some Republic Senators, while it's not much it is enough to begin.
Her most recent achievement was adding members from each clan that has expressed interest in a Republic aligned Mandalore to her embassy in the Senate district of Coruscant. With this aid she finally has the strength to begin actively looking to Senators to start trying to show what the Mandalorians could recieve if they were to agree to work with the Republic. She has dreamed big and perhaps she will be able to accomplish that dream and create a new hope for the Mandalorian people and a future that see's Mandalorian space grow once more independent of foreign intervention.

Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in Jedi archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
Val'Ko Sate was born on 17.1.8 BTC on on the planet of Dantooine taken from his family just before he turned 5 Years old, Ever since he has been training and getting stronger as a Jedi, He remembers how highly his mother talked about the Jedi and how she told him that if he worked hard enough he too could become a Jedi, So when Val'ko left home he wasn't bothered as much as other children. He thought that was what everyone did. The Jedi lifestyle was much more comfortable than the life he was living with his mother and as he grew he started to enjoy the learning and practice that gave him direction and support. Becoming a Jedi was all Val'Ko ever cared about. Val'ko was the type to learn from failure, and as such it is easier to learn from bruises than bad grades. He tried his best to keep up with the school portions of the training but always excelled at the things such as flying, surviving or what he loved most, Saber technique. Val'Ko spent a lot of time reading about how to fly or fight and made sure he was familiar with how speeders, starships, and most importantly how lightsabers worked.
Val'Ko was of course tested by the initiate trials since he has such a narrow focus but nevertheless he passed. The Jedi Code was clearly a part of his heart and mind by age 12 and he made not only one lightsaber but two, since he was provided the materials. He struggled the most on his Trial of Insight but proved he was adaptable and had lots of potential if trained correctly. He has been known to be too rough with other Initiates as if he doesn't know his own strength but his rough housing seems to be of good hearted nature with no ill intent.
Val'Ko has been with his master almost 2 years now going on mostly protective details and peaceful relation missions, He keeps his mind open at all times and has learned a lot. He practices his personal skills with any and all free time making sure he doesn't attract the wrong attention. He also enjoys any practice he can get at flying with his Master, always helping with maintenance and repair whenever needed.
