Name: Shai Rivelia (Shairi'velia in Ryl)
Race: Twi'lek
Gender: Female
Age: 27
Character Type: Force-trained
Appearance: As a female rutian Twi'lek, Shai has dark blue skin and a face that would be considered pretty by most species' standards. She has high cheekbones and full lips as well as a small pointed chin and ear cones that are present in most female twi'lek. The one variation in her face is her amber eyes, signifying her connection to the dark side of the force. Her lekku are highly tattooed with Sith Empire iconography in black ink, although some of it seems to be altered. Shai usually wraps her lekku with cloth to hide the tattoos to avoid unwanted attention they might bring. Around her forehead she sports a plain leather circlet that has a single white gem inlaid on the front.
Shai's typical outfit is a tattered earth-toned tunic that ends about mid thigh to form a small skirt. Around her stomach she wears a leather wrap to offer some basic protection from the elements. She has a brown cloth garment hand-sown on to the top of her tunic to act as a hood and a shawl. Shai prefers to wear functional boots and it shows on her personal pair, they are heavily worn and have had the symbols and serial numbers scratched off.
Her body itself is athletic in its build and fairly average in height at 5'7" (or 170 cm). Shai obviously takes good care of her body or has been forced to through her line of work. Her body is wrapped in well-earned muscle and marked by a few intermittent scars on her torso and shoulders. Shairi'velia's chest is fairly average sized, but she finds revealing clothes to be too frivolous for her tastes. Overall she takes the appearance of a wanderer, but her ragged clothes belie a warrior's body.
Shai carries with her an air of weight, like she's carrying something heavy with her. The aura of battle is still with her, you can see it in her grim expression and the smouldering of her eyes. You can see it in the tenseness of her grip, and in each step. If one is sensitive in the force, one can feel the echoes of conflict from the past in her spirit and one can sense a turmoil in her soul. In a word, she appears troubled.
Personality: Shai is a quiet, determined soul. She prefers to let her actions speak for her, and hates losing. She values strength and martial prowess above all, although she recognises that strength can come in many different forms. She despises senseless violence, but finds herself at peace in the middle of battle (although she hates to admit it). She takes great pride in her abilities but at the same time she is weighed down by guilt because of the things she has used her abilities for. Shai was formerly idealistic and to some extent she still is, but the events of the past few years have caused her formerly idealistic spirit and resolute will to be broken.
In everyday life she is thoughtful and often falls into introspection, however there is nothing quite so cutting as the recollection of a guilty mind and so she can hesitate or suffer breakdowns on occasion. In battle, on the other hand, she finds her mind clear and free of the burdens she carries, so allowing her to be decisive and to act without hesitation. Within battle and without she is brave and courageous and is more than willing to die for a cause she believes or a person she cares about. She is the first to volunteer to do a dangerous task, regardless of whether or not she is the best person for the job. Shai also enjoys helping people to some extent but doesn't like too much charity as she feels as though it's robbing someone of the chance to overcome adversity and become stronger. It's slightly embarrassing to her but she enjoys sparring with other people as she feels it gives a window into other people's personalities.
Shai sees herself as a warrior first and foremost. She does not speak Ryl fluently, and doesn't know what her name means in her species' native tongue. She has never been to Ryloth and has no attachment to other Twi'lek.

Racial Trait: Seductive: You are considered attractive by most other species, giving you an attraction advantage on Persuade checks regardless of race. On the downside, your sensitive lekku is one more weak spot that other species don't have. As a result, you're more vulnerable to critical hits, and suffer from natural rolls of 19-20 (instead of just 20).
Background Trait: The Force Shall Free Me: Whenever you succeed on a roll, you earn a +1 trait bonus to your next roll of any non-combat related check. However, your broken spirit makes you submit in the face of defeat. If you fail on a roll, you suffer a -1 trait bonus to your next roll of any non-combat related check.
Inventory: Broken Lightsaber: The bisected remains of her saber. The outside casing is black with green symbols etched all along the length.
Tunic: The aforementioned tunic she wears. (3 lbs with leather circlet and wrap)
Other: This fits her overall theme well
