Personality: Kind, caring, and respectful of others--Soraya has gained a significant amount of intelligence over the years due to her love of knowledge, providing her with an amazing vocabulary, active imagination, and an open mind. She is very confident and outspoken in her opinions, and seldom likes being told what to do. Despite all this, she does not have very many friends due to her smarts and being a free thinker. Soraya isn't concerned about hers or other's appearances, and is able to look past how people appear and into their hearts. Soraya is somewhat an independent spirit and refuses to be mistreated, undermined, humiliated, demeaned or controlled by any man. However, Soraya willingly listens to, looks up to and admires her father and master. She is quite obstinate when it comes to stating her points, upholding her opinions, and maintaining her ideas. She frequently dreams about a life of adventure and romance, not realizing that sometimes adventures might take a turn for the worst. Soraya realizes that having dreams is great, but sometimes you need to look beyond them and find what you're truly looking for.
Backstory/History: Soraya never knew her real parents. They were killed aboard a starship when pirates attacked, she was rescued by an old Mandalorian who took her into his clan. Mandalore rich with forests became the only home Soraya knew. Soraya grew up in a small farming village up north near the Dark Forest in the clan controled controlled province of Reem. She learned the language and culture of the Mandalorian people. At three years old Soraya was introduced to Shuk, a strill pup that became her responsibility. The two grew up together. Her adopted father taught her how to defend herself and trained her to be strong. At the age of eight she began training in military and survival skills; also how to hunt, fish, shoot, and fight. Soraya learned loyalty to Clan Reem, discipline, courage, and respect for her bew heritage. Soraya always worked close with her father on missions and she grew a strong bond with him, teaching her how to be a proficient warrior. He trained her to be disciplined, physically and mentally tough. When she was thirteen, she passed the trial of the
verd'goten, a test of acquired skills in fighting and surviving in tradtition of the Mandalorian rite of passage. Soraya loved her father, but she had dreams of being something more than a mercenary's daughter. She would spend her free nights in the village library reading about planets and places she had never traveled, she loved listening to stories of her father's adventures.
After a dangerous job, her father never returned after meeting a contact on the Bog moon of Bogden. Following her senses Soraya pursued after him alone and found him trapped by the moon's ruler. After much negotiation the king agreed to release her old father on one condition: that she must remain his personal slave. She agreed, and began a life filled with sadness until a Jedi came to her rescue after raiding the kingdom. Before suspending judgment on her captor, Soraya surprised the Jedi by defending the king. The king never harmed her and treated her well, though he was a dark man. The Jedi recognized this selfless act worthy of recognition, he discovered her hidden talents of being gifted with the Force, something Soraya knew nothing of. He offered to train her in the ways of the Jedi. She agreed, though she would miss her father, she gave up her life for her dreams to be able to defend the helpless and serve others. Only sixteen years old Soraya dedicated her life to the ways of the Force.
