AlteredTundraName - Lahana Sunset
Species - Half Echani, half Human
Sex - Female
Age - 19
Faction - Jedi Task Force
Rank - Padawan
Appearance - Lahana stands at a height of six feet four inches tall. She has a head of long straight silver hair, about three feet long, which is usually swept to either the left or right side of her head. She often tries to hide her padawan braid while fiddling with her hair, leaving it tucked behind her ear. She has a tan complexion and a multitude of scars. Most notably there are marks of lashing on her back and discolored skin on the right side of her face due to a burn, running from the end of her right brow to the bottom of her chin. She has dark lines under her eyes. She doesn't get much sleep, and when she does she is tormented by nightmares. The only time she is at rest are the few moments she is able to meditate and be at peace.
Otherwise her facial features are soft, with a subtle nose and mouth. If not for her sharp auburn eyes she would appear almost approachable. Her voice alternates between just a bit too quiet and just a bit too loud, as she has difficulty gauging the proper tone of conversation.
Lahana spends a lot of time training her body, and it shows. She has clearly defined muscles with a low body fat percentage. While she isn't hulking she is far stronger than the average person.
Apparel - If she isn't wearing the robes given to her she can be seen wearing painfully plain clothing. She has no fashion sense to speak of.
Lightsaber(s) - She has a basic green saber that she constructed as part of her training. Besides that one she has another that she built in her spare time. While searching for the crystal to create her first saber she happened upon a clear crystal. When she looked closer, she saw that the crystal was murky and fogged on the inside. Her master told her such a crystal would not be ideal, leading to an unpredictable appearance. However instead of tossing it away, she kept it. Installing it into a curved hilt, this lightsaber produces a white saber with blinking black spots when turned on.
Equipment - She keep rations on her person, as she likes to eat often.
Force Powers - Lahana has knowledge of the core abilities of a jedi, and is particularly adept at offensive feats. Passive abilities or those that require great concentration are difficult, if not impossible for her to do.

Skills - First Aid training - Lahana, being unable to properly use Force Healing, opted to learn how to deal with common injuries that would be sustained in battle.
Firearms proficiency - While she isn't a top class marksman, Lahana is well versed in the use of blasters and other projectile weapons.
Flaws - Socially inept, Prone to fits of anger, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by her early childhood.
Personality - Lahana is full of good intentions and poor actions. She wants to treat people kindly, but tends to avoid contact and say all the wrong things during conversation. Being close to people sets her on edge, as voices in her head tell her all the horrible things others can do to her. She tries to ignore her paranoia, but it often gets the better of her. She's still not used to holding normal conversation, so will either end up not saying much or saying far too much. The only time she can understand someone is when she fights them, as she believes is due to her heritage. She wants to live as a proper jedi, but struggles with her emotions. She knows giving in to anger could lead her down a dark path, she knows violence can't solve everything, but it's all she knew for a long time.
Backstory - Lahana was born on a planet that rained acid and was home to ferocious wildlife. She doesn't remember much about her parents as they were killed by roving bandits. She was captured and sold to a mercenary company. There she had an explosive collar latched to her neck, which also sent a shock through her body whenever she was disobedient. She went through what could technically be called training, but was more akin to torture. She was thrown into arenas with wild animals and forced to fight for her life, she was beaten and whipped so as to dull her sense of pain. When they got bored her captors would occasionally force her to fight other people in underground fights to the death, after a while she lost count of the number she'd killed.
She was sent on missions with the mercenaries, acting as front line fodder with other slaves. She's seen her friends blown apart, stabbed and torched alive. Eventually she stopped talking to others, as she couldn't take losing anymore friends. After returning from another contract, her captors celebrated by drinking. While they were debilitated she heard one of them say that a jedi taskforce had been sent to take care of them. They broke into chaos and Lahana took this chance to escape. She killed the man that held the key to her cuff once they were in a room alone, with him drunkingly shoving money and other goods into a bag she took the knife from his belt and stabbed him to death. Hearing the commotion more of them went into the room. Lahana was ready for them, waiting rather. She was only ten years old, but unknown to her she had the force backing her, and it along with her training was more than enough for her to slaughterer them.
Shortly afterwards the door to the room opened, and a man adorned in a robe stood before her. The knife in her hand was slick with blood, and the room was painted red. The robed man was her future master. She was older than was normal for someone to be trained in the force, but her master saw that if left alone she would quickly be seduced by the allure of the dark side, and so an exception was made, under the condition that she be monitored by her master.
