Name: Andri Perrin
Species: Epicanthix
Age: 36
Gender: Female
Faction: Jedi Order
Rank: Knight
Captive? Yes
Appearance:
At 193cm tall, Andri is shorter than average for her people but still taller than most humans. She has thick black hair usually tied back in a loose bun and dark brown eyes, a rounded face with a strong nose and a wide mouth and darkly tanned skin. Her build is lithe and wiry, with no real defining curves to show beneath her robes.
Notable Characteristics of Species:
Epicanthix are immune to Force-assisted mental trick, influence, domination and mind reading.
Epicanthix are identifiable by the epicanthic fold of their eyelids.
Flaws:
Often blinds herself to the darkness in other, giving people the benefit of the doubt.
She is willing to give everyone chances to redeem themselves, but with each broken promise she becomes less lenient towards that person. She gives six chances to each individual - she’s twice as lenient as others, but after the sixth she will cut ties with that person. In the case of Sith, after six attempts at redemption she will instead attempt to ‘put them down’, regarding them as little more than rabid dogs.
Subscribes to the ideal that if you are going to change, you must change in all areas and not just the ones that are easiest or benefit you most.
Her combat skills are lacking, being more suited for diplomatic roles instead.
Automatically trusts all Jedi, except those that were previously Sith. Redeemed Sith, she treats with civility and neutrality, unless they have breached her chance limit, in which case she distrusts them and waits for the moment when they fall back to the darkness so she can put them down.
Looks towards a better tomorrow rather than dwelling on today or the past.

Biography:
Andri was born on Panatha in the Outer Rim Territories, but not long after her birth her parents moved further into the known galaxy, to Denon, for work opportunities. It was due to this that she was picked up at a very early age by the Jedi Order, and whisked away to the Jedi Academy on Alaris Prime.
She doesn’t remember much of her parents, being just a toddler when she was taken away from them, and so grew into the Jedi way of life very quickly and easily. Her childhood was one of joy and laughter, enjoying her time playing with the other younglings and learning new things. She struggled to learn the lightsaber combat forms however, showing a much higher natural aptitude for the ways of the Force instead. She was a natural speaker, diffusing arguments and organising activities within the children’s play time and using keen eyes to assess a situation and come up with a plan, and was soon guided towards the lifestyle of a Consular and diplomat.
When she was 8, she became good friends with Vebra, a newcomer Zabrak youngling, and tried to help him as much as possible with his connection to the Force. This was forced to come to a halt when she became a Padawan at the age of 10, apprenticing under Jedi Master Ral Shodon, and travelled with him around the galaxy he visited other Academies and plied his skills as a diplomat and healer. Master Shodon was a stern taskmaster, focusing more on Andri’s prowess in the way of the Jedi than on allowing her to socialise with her agemates. Due to her own lack of natural combative skills, he only focused on bringing them up to acceptable levels before switching to intense training in the way of the Force. She herself showed no aptitude for the healing arts, instead learning the basics of field first aid. Alongside this, he trained her in the basics of diplomacy and the history of the Republic and the Order. He slowly worked on her natural naivety and gullibleness as well, but didn’t make much headway until they were six years into her training. She kept up her contact with Vebra, exchanging letters with him often over the years.
When she was 16, just before Master Shodon took Andri on a four year training trip to the Republic Elite’s Resort World of Alassa Major, to mingle with the politicians and elite of the galaxy, she indulged in a short fling with Vebra. They kept up the flirty correspondence through her time on Alassa Major, providing a source of relaxation for her. Her time spent on Alassa Major was anything but relaxing, as she was forced to rub elbows with the richest and most affluent of society. She was forced to leave behind her childish naivety and gullibleness very quickly, as he intensified her training in the diplomatic and political arenas, whilst not allowing her combat or Force skills to deteriorate. They ended up staying a year longer than Master Shodon expected, as it took extra time for him to train her to think things through more instead of instantly believing what everybody says. During this time as well, Andri and Vebra's flirtatious relationship subsided to just very close friends, neither of them wanting to try for something more serious in case it ruined their friendship.
Andri’s Master declared her ready for Knighthood at the age of 21, eleven years after she entered his apprenticeship. She was Knighted traditionally, barely passing her Trial of Skill, but making up for it with her skill in the Trial of Insight. The next fifteen years of her life were spent bouncing between diplomatic missions and being a spokesperson between the Jedi Council and the Republic, as Master Shodon had trained her to do, bouncing between her childhood Academy on Alaris Prime in her downtime and other Mid and Inner Rim planets .
When she felt her Master's death, Andri was shocked and has spent what time she can spare between political missions searching for information on the death of her Master and his apprentice at the time. She is determined to confront the person who killed her Master and either arrest them (in the case of non-Force sensitives) or kill them (in the case of Sith) to prevent any further deaths of those dedicated to peace.
She was in between missions at the time of the Sacking of Coruscant, readying herself for another trip around the Mid Rim worlds.
Personality and/or Motivation:
Optimistic and calm, she is always smiling and believes that everything will get better, you just have to believe and keep hope alive.
If judgement is not carried out on those who have betrayed her or the galaxy, she will be irritated. If a chance comes later for her to take them out, she will take the opportunity. If they have been redeemed between when she last saw them and the next, she will not attack immediately. She will be disapproving and distrustful, always waiting for the moment when they slip back into the darkness.
Player’s long term goals:
Keeping morale up for the captive Jedi, have fun! She works closely with the Republic, trying to unify the galaxy under one overall banner.
Light Side: A harsher, less forgiving view on the Sith, giving them only one chance to redeem themselves. In the case of already redeemed Sith, she will treat them suspiciously regardless of whether they were redeemed on the first chance or not, and any slipping will result in her ‘accidentally’ crossing paths with them and killing them for the good of the galaxy. She will still work towards unity, but will prescribe to the tough love mind set.
Dark Side: She will fall, and fall hard, twisting her views completely as she changes every aspect of herself, going from a ‘brighter tomorrow, good of the many person’, to a selfish, present-only person. She will seek to unite the galaxy through pain and equality through the Dark Side, not trusting anyone and seeing threats wherever she looks. She will never take on an apprentice, not wanting someone so close to her and learning her secrets.
Relations:
Jedi Master Ral Shodon: Master. She felt his death two months ago, and has been searching for clues on who killed him since.
Lea Rahn: I am thankful and pleased she is alive, though the knowledge that she has been taught by the Sith has me somewhat worried. Have they twisted our Master's teachings, subverted them into being parallel to their own? I think she is a resourceful young woman, but still a child in terms of what she has to learn about teh Jedi way and the Force, and I pray that we can make it out of this together. If we do, I will endeavour to help her learn more about our way of life, and correct any misunderstandings spending so much time with the Sith may have caused.
Vebra Mirthios: Close childhood friends, had a teenhood fling with him but they let the flirtation fall so as not to ruin their close friendship.
Jayda: knows a little bit about her, including seeing a few childhood holograms, through her correspondence with Vebra. Knew her as a charming, hyper young girl with a large smile.
Xid: He is a nice young man, but not very confident, and I worry that he may do something rash and lose his life - which, if what he told me is correct, is not going to be beneficial to the prisoners as a whole, since a lot of the plan he and Tolun Fi have talked about involve his skills with machines. I will gladly go in his place for any torture or discussions, as I have faith in my conviction, and it will spare him the pain and psychological confusion such events would induce, and therefore take his attention away from any plotting the others may need to do.
Shiri: A young Twi'lek, I'm not sure how old she is but she seems younger than Xid. I haven't had a chance to speak with her, but she doesn't appear to be a fighter.
Miasa: The Sluissi is...confusing for me. She talks pleasantly, she enjoys debating differing points of view, and she disdains hurting someone just for the sake of causing pain, but she is a Sith. She has left me with quite a bit to think about, some of which has me rattled. I think in another lifetime, one where she hadn't fallen to the Dark Side or perhaps I had never become a Jedi, we could have been good friends.
Jayda and Zanna: The pair I have only just met, though the Zabrak is extremely familiar to me. She reminds me of someone...it's on the tip of my tongue, but the words won't come. They are both so young; I wonder how either of them have survived the Sith so far, as it is not the best environments to grow up in, even for a Sith Pureblood. Though by the scarring on the Zabrak, it hasn't been an easy time. Perhaps they could be shown the Light Side, and cast off their dark pasts in exchange for happiness.
Denso and Khan: Well...they are males and prisoners. I haven't talked to either of them enough to actually get an impression.
