[NAME:]ASHA SEREN[FACTION:]JEDI
[AGE:]NINETEEN[ALIGNMENT:]ASHLA [LIGHT]
[GENDER:]FEMALE[RANK:]PADAWAN
[SPECIES:]EPICANTHIX[MASTER:]N/A
[ORIGINS:]PANATHA[SUBGROUP:]UNSPECIFIED
[HOMEWORLD:]CADINTH[SPECIALISATION:]BATTLE MEDIC
[OVERVIEW:]

ASHA STANDS AT 6'2 AND WEIGHS APPROXIMATELY 56KG AS IS BEFITTING OF A FEMALE EPICANTHIX AT HER AGE. HER BODY IS TONED DUE TO EXCESSIVE PHYSICAL WORKOUT BOTH WITHIN TRAINING COMPLEXES AND OUT ON THE PLANET SURFACE, AS WELL AS ON MORE CHALLENGING TERRAINS FOUND OFF-WORLD. DESPITE HOW THIN AND DEXTEROUS SHE APPEARS ASHA IS STRONGER THAN SHE LOOKS, AS MONITORED THROUGH VARIOUS TRAINING REGIMES. HER LITHE BODY AIDS HER IN ALL MANNER OF AGILITY AND STEALTH RELATED TASKS, AND SHE IS DEEMED TO BE AT THE PEEK OF HER PHYSICAL ABILITIES. HOWEVER, MALNUTRITION AS A CHILD HAS LEFT ASHA WITH A POOR CONSTITUTION, AND AS SUCH PROLONGED LENGTHS OF TIME IN PHYSICAL WORK OUT CAN TIRE HER FAR FASTER THAN OTHERS OF HER AGE GROUP AND IN EXTREME CASES LEAVE HER EXHAUSTED.

IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT THE JEDI IN QUESTION LACKS MANY OF THE SOCIAL ABILITIES DEEMED NORMAL FOR ONE IN HER POSITION, WHICH MAY HINDER FUTURE ADVANCES, YET CO-OPERATION WITH OTHERS IS SUPERB DESPITE HER SILENCE, ALMOST MILITARY LIKE IN HER RESPONSE TO INSTRUCTIONS AND WILLINGNESS TO WORK AS PART OF A SMALL TEAM. LARGE GROUPS SEEM TO HINDER HER GREATLY. VIGOROUS IQ TESTING INDICATES ASHA'S INTELLIGENCE TO BE ABOVE AVERAGE FOR HER AGE, HER BRAIN HAVING BEEN SHOWN TO WORK OVERTIME IN MOST SITUATIONS, FROM THE MOST BASIC TO THE MORE ADVANCED. THE JEDI IN QUESTION WORKS IN A RATIONAL MANNER AND EXCELS WITH DATA RECOLLECTION. IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT ALONGSIDE THIS, THE SUBJECT IS ALSO DEEMED MORE MATURE THAN HER PEERS, INTROSPECTION AN ASSET TO HER MORE SO THAN VERBAL COMMUNICATION. WHEN SHE IS WILLING TO SPEAK HER VOICE BETRAYS LIFE EXPERIENCE FAR BEYOND HER YEARS. THIS, HOWEVER, GIVES HER AN AIR OF BROODINESS WHICH COULD FURTHER HINDER HER SOCIAL SKILLS.

[SKILLS:]

ASHA IS AN ADEPT FORCE USER WHO EXCELS WITH USE OF THE ALTER TECHNIQUE KNOWN AS TELEKINESIS. THIS IS DEEMED HER MOST ADVANCED FORCE POWER, ASIDE FROM HER INNATE ABILITY OF FORCE EMPATHY, AND SHE HAS PROGRESSED SO FAR WITH TELEKINESIS THAT SHE HAS BEGUN THE ADVANCED FORM KNOWN AS BALLISTAKINESIS, ONE LARGELY UNKNOWN TO THE JEDI AS A WHOLE. ALONGSIDE THESE TECHNIQUES LIES HER CHOSEN LIGHTSABER FORM OF NIMAN USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH JAR'KAI.

ASIDE FROM THESE LARGELY MERGED SKILLS THE JEDI IN QUESTION HAS A FOCUS ELSEWHERE. SKILLED WITH MEDICINE, ASHA IS A NOTED MEDIC WITHIN THE ORDER (NOT A FORCE HEALER), WHO HAS SHOWN A PREFERENCE FOR NATURAL REMEDIES SUCH AS THE FAMED KOLTO OVER THE SYNTHESIZED PRODUCTS PRESENTLY ON THE MARKET. WHEN IN DIRE NEED SHE HAS BEEN KNOWN TO CALL UPON THE FORCE TO AID HER THROUGH THE TECHNIQUE KNOWN AS FORCE HEAL. THERE ARE FEW OTHER FORCE TECHNIQUES WHICH THE JEDI IN QUESTION ACTIVELY USES; TELEPATHY, FORCE SENSE AND FORCE STEALTH DEEMED A MUST-KNOW DUE TO SECURITY AND PROTECTION REASONS WHEN ON MISSIONS, AND THE COLLECTION OF FORCE SHIELD, BARRIER AND TUTAMINIS TO FURTHER HER BATTLE MEDIC SPECIFICATION AND PROTECT THOSE SHE IS HEALING.

AWAY FROM ALL MARTIAL AND FORCE BASED SKILLS NOW; ASHA IS A KEEN BOTANIST, KNOWN TO GROW MANY OF HER OWN PLANTS NEEDED FOR HER MEDICAL WORK, AND AN ABLE PILOT WHO HAS PASSED HER PILOTING TESTS. ALONGSIDE THE LATTER COMES HER MECHANICAL ABILITIES, LIKELY ENHANCED BY HER YOUNGER YEARS OF SCAVENGING AND CONSTRUCTING TO STAY ALIVE. THE JEDI IN QUESTION ALSO SPEAKS TWO LANGUAGES FLUENTLY, GALACTIC BASIC AND EPICANT, AND IS IN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING A VARIETY OF KNOWN OTHERS. IT SHOULD BE NOTED HERE THAT ASHA LACKS ONE FUNDAMENTAL SKILL WHICH SHOULD INDEFINITELY BE WORKED UPON IN A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT. HAVING BEEN BROUGHT UP ON THE DESERT PLANET KNOWN AS CADINTH, THE JEDI IN QUESTION IS UNABLE TO SWIM. THIS IS DEEMED A NECESSITY AND SHOULD BE SEEN TO IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

[HEALTH RECORDS: PSYCHOANALYSIS RECORDS OVERVIEW]

SUBJECT RESPONDS POORLY TO CROWDS AND LARGE GROUPS OF PEOPLE, LIKELY PUT DOWN TO TRAUMA SUFFERED AS A CHILD. HER LEFT HAND IS KNOWN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN ANXIOUS, WORRIED, SCARED OR GENERALLY OUT OF HER COMFORT ZONE. RELUCTANCE TO SPEAK A SIGN OF DISTRUST AND POSSIBLE MENTAL RESTRAINTS. FURTHER UNORTHODOX MENTAL PROBING REVEALED A SLIGHT TWIST IN HER MIND WHICH REDIRECTS HER OWN THOUGHTS INTO THAT OF THREE VOICES: HER OWN, ONE SHE DEEMS THE QUIET VOICE OF REASON AND ANOTHER LOUDER VOICE. THIS IS DEEMED A RESULT OF THE AFOREMENTIONED TRAUMA AND LACK OF CONVERSATION. ALL SIGNS POINT TO THE ADDITIONAL VOICES BEING SUBCONSCIOUS WAYS FOR THE SUBJECT TO TELL HERSELF SOMETHING SHE IS UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO CONSCIOUSLY THINK. FURTHER SESSIONS MAY BE REQUIRED. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT WHILE UNORTHODOX THE PATIENTS MENTALITY IS STILL DEEMED TO BE SANE AND SHE IS FIT FOR ACTIVE DUTY WITHOUT HINDRANCE.

UNLIKE MOST JEDI, LEAST OF ALL A JEDI OF THE YOUNGER GENERATION, ASHA FOLLOWS THE WAY OF THE OLD REPUBLIC, AND IS NOTED TO STICK TO THE REFINED CODE BY ODAN-URR AND THE EARLIER MANTRA, AS WELL AS SKYWALKERS LESS-STRICT NEW JEDI ORDER CODE. IT IS THOUGHT THAT ASHA HAS NOT BEEN TAUGHT THE NEW JEDI PHILOSOPHY, WHICH PERHAPS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO; AND THIS COULD ADD TO HER MILITARY-LIKE PRESENCE, THE JEDI IN QUESTION SEEMING TO NEED THE STRUCTURE AND REGIMENTED ORDER THAT SUCH STRICT CODES BRING ABOUT. THIS COULD ARGUABLY BE DUE TO HER LOOSE UPBRINGING, WITHOUT ANY REAL AUTHORITATIVE FIGURE. WITH THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT ASHA MIGHT LOOSEN UP ON HER TIGHT IDEALS, WHICH ARE VERY IDEALISTIC AS ALL THE ORIGINAL CODES WERE, BUT AGAIN THIS BY NO MEANS HINDERS HER IN ANY GREAT WAY.

[POSSESSIONS:]

THE JEDI IN QUESTION IS IN THE POSSESSION OF TWO IDENTICAL LIGHTSABERS WITH DISTINCTLY WHITE, ALMOST CLEAR, BLADES. THE CASING IS TRANSPARENT AT THE CENTRE, WHERE THE LENS ASSEMBLY RESIDES, AND REVEALS THE CRYSTALS WHICH ARE HOUSED WITHIN; BARAB ORE COLOUR CRYSTALS, KASHA PRIMARY FOCUSING CRYSTALS FROM CEREA AND STYGIUM SECONDARY FOCUSING CRYSTALS FROM MARAMERE. THE PROPERTIES OF SUCH ARE AS FOLLOWS; BARAB ORE PRODUCES AN ALMOST TRANSPARENT BLADE, WHICH ORDAINS THE LIGHTSABER WITH IT'S WHITE BLADE. KASHA FOCUSING CRYSTALS ENHANCE MEDITATIVE ABILITIES AND FOCUS. STYGIUM FOCUSING CRYSTALS ENHANCE STEALTH ABILITIES. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE LIGHTSABER MUST BE ACTIVE FOR THESE EFFECTS TO REACH THEIR PEAK, AND MUST BE DRAWN UPON BY THE JEDI IN QUESTION; THEY ARE NOT PASSIVE.

eliimperialsabers.jpg

ALONGSIDE HER LIGHTSABERS ASHA IS NOTED TO WEAR TRADITIONAL JEDI ATTIRE, HOWEVER GIVEN THE DIFFICULT YEARS WHICH HAVE PASSED SHE HAS MORE FREQUENTLY THAN NOT BEEN SEEN IN MORE CIVILIAN-ESQUE ATTIRE. SHE ALSO HAS IN HER POSSESSION A CUSTOMISED DATAPAD WHICH IS UPDATED FREQUENTLY WITH ANY NEW KNOWLEDGE SHE OBTAINS, A WRIST BASED COMM-LINK DEVICE COMPLETE WITH HOLO-TRANSMITTER, TWO SMALL POCKET-SATCHELS, THE FIRST OF WHICH CONTAINS LEAVES OF THE MAJIE PLANT AND THE SECOND WHICH CONTAINS LEAVES OF THE FUNNEL FLOWER FOR NUTRITIONAL AND HYDRATION PURPOSES. SHE CARRIES A KOLTO BASED MEDPAC WHICH SHE KEEPS WELL-SUPPLIED, AS WELL AS VARIOUS OTHER HERBAL REMEDIES KEPT IN SHATTERPROOF VIALS. IN MEMORY OF HER SISTER SHE KEEPS UPON HER PERSON A SINGLE FEATHER, TAKEN FROM AN OLD DREAMCATCHER SHE HAD ONCE MADE FOR HER, AND FROM HER FORMER MENTOR MASTER WINDRAGE SHE HAS A HOLOCRON FULL OF INFORMATION. FINALLY ASHA OWNS AN E-WING ESCORT STARFIGHTER COMPLETE WITH AN R7-SERIES ASTROMECH DROID "R7-T6", COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS "ARTY". SHE HAS 1245 CREDITS TO HER NAME WHICH MOSTLY GOES TOWARDS STARSHIP AND DROID REPAIRS AS WELL AS MAINTAINING A FULL MEDPAC.

[BIOGRAPHICAL RECORDS: HISTORY]

ASHA WAS BORN UPON PANATHA TO TWO EPICANTHIX PARENTS, NOTED TO BE "KHAHUR SEREN" AND "ISAYA VAUX". AT THE AGE OF ONE THE JEDI IN QUESTION WAS TAKEN VIA AN UNKNOWN VESSEL TO THE BUSY SPACEPORT OF SASKAPEG UPON CADINTH; FATHER WAS NOT PRESENT, NOR HAS HE BEEN REPORTED OF SINCE. MOTHER INITIALLY TOOK ANOTHER MAN AS HER HUSBAND AND A SECOND CHILD WAS BORN, KNOWN TO BE ONE "PHOENIX VAUX". THE SECOND MARRIAGE FAILED, LEAVING THE FAMILY STRANDED AND WITHOUT, WHILST ISAYA WAS FORCED INTO SLAVERY; CHILDREN REMAINED FREE DUE TO THEIR AGE. ASHA TOOK OVER THE CARE OF HER SISTER DURING THEIR MOTHER'S ABSENCE, YET IS NOTED TO HAVE HAD SEVERAL CRIMINAL INCIDENTS INVOLVING SMALL THEFT DUE TO LACK OF FUNDS WHICH WERE NEVER FOLLOWED UP ON BY AUTHORITIES.

IT IS NOTED THAT ONE EVENING THE SECOND HUSBAND, KNOWN ONLY AS "ALEXISAJANDO", RETURNED TO HIDE FROM THE AUTHORITIES. HE REMAINED FOR ONE WEEK BEFORE THE FAMILY WERE CALLED UPON BY A BOUNTY HUNTER, NAME UNRECORDED. ASHA WAS SUBJECT TO SEEING BOTH MOTHER AND SUPPOSED-FATHER ATTACKED, THE FORMER LEFT FOR DEAD AND THE LATTER TAKEN INTO CUSTODY; PHOENIX HAD BEEN KEPT AWAY. YET AGAIN STRANDED AND WITHOUT, HAVING LOST THEIR SOLE PROVIDER, THE GIRLS ARE NOTED TO HAVE FLED THE CITY AND HEADED INTO THE MOUNTAINS. NO OFFICIAL RECORDS NOTE THE NEXT FEW YEARS, HOWEVER RIGOROUS QUESTIONING WITH THE SUBJECT IN QUESTION HAS REVEALED THE FOLLOWING;

THE TWO GIRLS FOUND A NETWORK OF CAVES WITHIN ONE OF THE MOUNTAIN RANGES, TAKING ONE AREA AS THEIR OWN. VARIOUS SCAVENGING TRIPS IN THE OUTLYING DESERT ENABLED THE OLDER, ASHA, TO BUILD THEM SOME FORM OF HOME AS WELL AS USE OTHER PIECES OF SCRAP TO SELL FOR CREDITS. IT IS NOTED THAT OFTEN ASHA WOULD REPAIR WHAT SHE FOUND, TO EARN FURTHER CREDITS AT THE MARKET, YET EVEN SO MEDICAL RECORDS UPON THE OLDER'S DISCOVERY REVEALED VAST MALNUTRITION WHICH COULD HAVE INEVITABLY LED TO STARVATION AND DEATH. THE PAIR WERE FOUND AGED 5 AND 7 BY JEDI RECRUITER S'IYAH AND JEDI MASTER LEVI WINDRAGE. A SITH ATTACK FOLLOWED SHORTLY AFTER, WOUNDING THE AFOREMENTIONED MASTER WINDRAGE BUT WARDING OFF THE SITH.

OFFICIAL RECORDS FROM THE TWO JEDI INDICATE THAT MASTER WNIDRAGE WAS TENDED TO BY NONE OTHER THAN ASHA, SHOWING A POSSIBLE FUTURE WITH THE CONSULARS. UPON LEAVING THE NETWORK OF CAVES THE YOUNGER, PHOENIX, WAS SLAUGHTERED BY THE SITH, WHO IS NOTED TO HAVE WAITED FOR THEM TO LEAVE. INITIAL ATTEMPTS TO CAPTURE SAID SITH FAILED, HOWEVER HE WAS LATER FOUND AND DETAINED BY JEDI AUTHORITIES. ASHA WAS KEPT AT THE SIDE OF MASTER WINDRAGE, BUT IT IS FROM THIS POINT THAT HER SILENCE BEGAN. COMMUNICATION THROUGH TELEPATHY WAS OFTEN THE WAY LESSONS WITH MASTER WINDRAGE WERE CARRIED OUT, AND THE YOUNG GIRLS KNOWLEDGE AND ABILITIES GREW DESPITE THIS. AFTER THE COMPLETION OF A WELL-USED YEAR ASHA WAS DEEMED ABLE TO JOIN THE MAIN JEDI TEMPLE ON CORUSCANT.

Asha is a quiet individual who rarely speaks unless it is to answer a question. While curious, she rarely asks questions unless it is required of her. In most cases she would use her initiative in order to seek out the required information herself - after all, there is an entire Archive at her disposal. She adheres to the second precept of the Old Refined Jedi Code, There is no Ignorance, there is Knowledge, despite the fact it is no longer in use, in the sense that she is always willing to learn. Asha is very independent, and a desire to help anyone in need of assistance. Due to necessity, she is able to undergo the basics of mechanics and repairs as well as basic medical methods, as she spent several years without her parents to do such for her. She dislikes asking for help, but will always give it where possible. Whenever Asha is worried, or anything similar to this, her left hand will begin to shake. At first it will be a slight tremble but after a short while it could become more violent. It is always the left, her dominant hand, as opposed to the right, and sometimes it will go from stationary to a violent shake if the situation warrants it.

Asha is quick to learn and on top of that willing to do so. Despite her youth she has grasped many of the core ideologies of the Jedi and several Force powers included. She stays true to the Jedi-Way as much as possible, and will only ever show an act of violence within the training sphere. However, Asha is not one to be around others. Due to her upbringing the only person Asha knew was her sister, whom she is no longer in contact with. This has stunted her social skills, and ontop of this, Asha is unfamiliar with various concepts such as love, happiness and friendship. Due to the nature of living the most part of her early life upon Cadinth, a notoriously desert planet, Asha does not know how to swim. As such she is internally frightened by the prospect of being close to large expanses of water, such as ponds and lakes, but she would never openly show this, as she's well aware that all weaknesses can be exploited by ones enemies.

There is another side to Asha which could be deemed, for lack of a better word, strange. Due to the isolation she put herself into, Asha shares her mind with two other 'voices', so to speak. While not secondary personalities, nor actual entities that have taken to using her to project themselves, they will often mentally call out to her both encouragements, criticisms and general comments. Often, Asha will ignore them, but sometimes the small voice of reason will give her something to go by, or keep her on track. The louder, less helpful voice can also do so, but in a more demanding manner. As such, Asha can sometimes be seen to have inner conflict, which can transfer itself outwardly into her expressions. Luckily for Asha, her Epicanthix traits restrict anyone from looking into her mind, but if they were to do so they'd find these 'voices' as easily as they'd find Asha herself. They are also regarded, by Asha, as the cause of her inability to communicate with others, a mental block so to speak that seeks to trap her in her 'sanctuary'.

General Statistics;
Strength
Strength is the quality or state of being physically strong and able in terms of physical capabilities, allowing the individual to lift heavier things for lengthier periods of time.
■■■■■■■■■■ (5/10)
Although she may not look like much, Asha has a strength that would outmatch most of those her own age due to physical hardships while growing up; time spent scavenging from ships and ruins has made her relatively strong.
Dexterity
Dexterity refers to the individuals agility and ability to perform tasks skillfully, linking to aspects such as how graceful or nimble an individual is, also.
■■■■■■■■■■ (7/10)
Asha has always been a nimble and swift individual due to the tricky nature that followed the necessity of pickpocketing in order to keep Nix alive, back before she was a Jedi, making it one of her stronger traits.
Constitution
Constitution refers to the general health and well being of an individual, as well as any hereditary or racial issues which could affect their immediate health or longevity.
■■■■■■■■■■ (5/10)
Asha has better health than the average Epicanthix due to her connection with the force, and longevity thanks to her racial heritage. However, years of underfeeding has put a strain on Asha's body and her weight has suffered due to this.
Intelligence
Intelligence is the individuals capacity to gather, understand and recall information, as well as to use it practically to be able to rationalise a situation.
■■■■■■■■■■ (8/10)
While having had only the briefest of education up until the time she was mentored by Levi Windrage, Asha is quick to grasp knowledge and able to transfer it into every day use effectively with good, rational understanding.
Wisdom
Wisdom is the ability to decide what is true, right or lasting, typically through use of reason as opposed to rationality which is often where it differs with intelligence.
■■■■■■■■■■ (6/10)
While still only a child, Asha has enough life experience to be classed as above-average in terms of her wisdom with regards to those of her own age group. While other children are happy and playful, Asha is more reserved and thoughtful.
Charisma
Charisma is the personal magnetism or charm an individual has with another, usually considered during social situations. It refers to the users ability to converse and interact with others.
■■■■■■■■■ (1/10)
Due to Asha's near-mute behaviour with regards to social interactions, she has little to no charisma or social skills. She is often deemed as a recluse because of this, preferring her own company to that of anyone else.

■■■■■■■■■■ (2/10) [Novice]
Asha learnt this technique alongside fellow Padawan Reland Gil by following the instructions on Levi's Holocron. The pair both agree that is is something they need to advance with, yet at present they are still novices.
Asha was born on Panatha to two Epicanthix parents. They lived in a remote region with dense forestry which provided all the shelter, meat and water that the family required to survive. There were very few people for miles around where the nomadic family lived. Not even a year into her life, however, Asha's father left with the promise of returning soon, claiming to have business elsewhere. When he did not return and rumour spread of his demise her mother, Isaya Vaux, decided that she could not bear to live there without him. She packed up and luckily found a pilot who had touched down on the planet on his way elsewhere. Isaya took young Asha away with the pilot and off Panatha. The ship was headed for Cadinth, startlingly different to the landscape of Panatha, mostly a desert wasteland save for the Capital - Saskapeg. It was here that Isaya began anew. She remarried a man called Alexisajando and had a second daughter with him, Phoenix. Things turned sour, however, and Alexisajando left Isaya and the girls within the same year. Impoverish due to the lack of their income, Isaya sought ways to uphold the family - however this proved difficult due to her lack of experience with jobs. In the end Isaya would become subject to slavery within what little of a slavers-circle Saskapeg still had. The girls remained free, however, due to their young ages. It was up to Asha most days to look after Phoenix, and some times they would go whole weeks without seeing their mother. On one rare occasion when Isaya was home, Alexisajando returned. It did not end well.

Someone was pounding on the door, demanding entry, threatening. “Take your sister, and go.” A woman said and the young girl slowly took the hand of her sister and moved away. “Sha?” the confused three year old asked. The older girl said nothing until they reached a small room taken up by two cots. “Under the bed” Sha said, and the three year old complied. The older girl gestured for silence before turning back to the door. She crept silently out into the room where the banging had subsided. Slipping under a covered table the girl peered out to where the woman stood. Before them was a man in full body armour, a helmet covering his features. “Where is he?” the man demanded, scanning the room with a movement of his head. “Here” said a second man, who walked from a door to the right, a man Sha had not seen in years. “Father!” she called out, in truth the man was Alexisajando, but her voice was lost to the woman’s. “Nooo!” she screamed as she placed her body between the armoured man and the Father. “Step aside, wench” was all the warning the woman had before the armoured man lifted a blaster and fired. “Mother!” Sha cried as the woman hit the floor but again her voice was lost to the commotion. When she looked up, blurry eyed, from her Mother’s body, the man she knew to be her Father was being hauled away.

Asha was forced to leave Saskapeg the moment the men were gone, covering the body of her mother first. She could not let Phoenix see what had happened, though she had no doubt the child had heard. Asha, at the time only six, led her younger sister by the hand and out of the city. They fled into the sandy mountains where Asha attempted to build a life for her sister. A year passed with little incident, until one fateful evening when they were approached by two individuals; a man and a woman. The man was simply known as "Windrage" and the woman S'iyah, and both addressed themselves as Jedi (One a Master and the other a Recruiter.) They were not the only ones to follow, however, and another soon approached them.

A man with purple hair lay before her, clutching at his chest yet otherwise looking calm. “Water” a young voice muttered, and a moment or so later a flask was thrust into her grasp. In the distance static clashing could be heard, but the young girl focused almost all of her attention on the wounded man before her. She shrugged out of her cloak and tore a piece off, before lifting the man’s shirt up to expose the wound. Taking in a breath to steady her hand the girl took out a very small tin from the pocket of her cloak and tipped the contents into the flask. She shook it before soaking the piece of cloth in the liquid. “May sting” she muttered before slowly cleaning out the wound. The man gritted his teeth but said and did nothing else. “Bandages, Nix” the girl said and soon found a small ravel of bandages in her hand. Still the clashing emitted from the side. “Stay out of their way” she muttered before turning her attention back to the man. With a determined frown she began to tightly wind the bandage around his chest, constricting the blood flow in the process. “Not perfect” she said, before leaning back. “Good enough” was the reply he gave and when she looked to him he was watching her carefully. “You’d make a good Consular” An aggravated groan from their right silenced the question on her lips. “I’ll be back, S'iyah!” came the new, harsh voice before the clashing stopped. A moment later a female was at her side. “Are you okay, Windrage?” said the woman, offering down a hand to the purple haired man. “I’ll live, thanks to her.” came Windrage’s response. “It’s not safe here” said the other, S'iyah, before looking to the two young girls. “You like to help, don’t you?” Windrage asked, and it took a moment for the girl to realise he spoke to her. She nodded her head. The Jedi exchanged glances, before gesturing them to follow. “Come with us.” they said.

However, upon exiting the cave the Sith who had attacked them was waiting. Intent on some form of vengeance for his defeat he snatched up Phoenix and slaughtered her in the eyes of all who were present. With Windrage still recovering from the damage he had been dealt by the Sith, it was down to S'iyah to pursue the Sith, however she was unsuccessful. She returned to Asha and the man, Windrage, and brought them both back to the ship. There Windrage was able to heal himself, while S'iyah tried to console a devastated Asha. In the days that followed the young girl would say nothing to either of them, although both Windrage and S'iyah would still attempt to converse. For the next year Windrage and S'iyah would train Asha aboard the ship, sometimes landing to pay a visit to the Order on Tython where Asha briefly glimpsed upon smiling children. She felt the emotions pooling from them, ones which were foreign to her, good ones, and wondered what they had to smile about.

Eventually Asha was deemed stable enough to fully join a Temple, and as such was taken to Coruscant by S'iyah to begin her true training alongside others. She had said little throughout the year, preferring the company of Levi over S'iyah (who reminded her too much of her deceased sister) and thus he was her primary tutor. All that changed, however, upon her journey to Coruscant. Levi had been informed to stay behind, so as not to hinder the transition, so it was only S'iyah that she had for company. She kept on her person a small feather, which had come from a dreamcatcher she had made for Nix years before, clutched within her hand. Everything else was given to her by the Jedi; robes, equipment, provisions. Although the two Jedi deemed her ready, Asha herself felt anything but.

NixPortrait.png
Khahur Seren
Father - Presumed Dead

Although notably absent throughout her life, Asha's Father still played a crucial role in who she is today. The lack of a Father figure brought about a sister for Asha to grow up with, and ultimately the events that followed his disappearance led to her joining the Jedi Order, despite the losses along the way. From Khahur, Asha inherited not only one half of her Epicanthix heritage but also her curious nature and ability to quickly grasp new things, whether they are intellectual, skill based or otherwise.
Isaya Vaux
Mother - Deceased

It is difficult to say what Asha's relationship with her Mother was like. Asha loved her, that much was obvious, yet she thought that the mistakes she made were too great, numerous and frequent. Her Mother, when there, taught Asha the basics of life, both the good and bad aspects of it, and it was from her Mother that Asha first learnt to read and write, paving the path for her future. The other half of her Epicanthix heritage came from her Mother, as well as her caring side and the urges to help others.
Phoenix "Nix" Vaux
Sister - Deceased

The light of Asha's world for several years, Phoenix was the sole object of Asha's affection and care. The pair were inseparable, virtually all the other one had, yet at the same time they were chalk and cheese. Asha was quiet, broody and cautious, while Nix was quite the opposite, talkative and fun by nature, with little care. Asha saw Phoenix as her sole responsibility, and would have done anything to save her the day the Sith came. She misses her to this day.

Levi Windrage
First Mentor - Missing in Action

The first to see the potential in Asha, it was due to Windrage's Force-Vision that the Jedi had turned up on Cadinth that day and in turn explored the caves. He was her first mentor, and taught her not only the philosophy of the New Jedi Order but even those long since discarded, relics of the Old Order (specifically the Ethical side) and these are things that Asha adheres to, without being ignorant to the present philosophy of the Order. He was her first positive role-model, and someone she will always look up to.
S'iyah
Recruiter - Alive

While technically Asha's Recruiter, S'iyah and Asha do not have the best of relationships. Due to the events that unfolded upon S'iyah's arrival into Asha's live, she views the Recruiter as too much of a reminder of what happened with the Sith and her loss of Phoenix. In turn, S'iyah has shown no real interest in Asha, leaving that to Levi Windrage, but has always done what she thought was best for the girl. The pair will likely never see one another again, but whether this is good or not is still to be seen.

Orlaan Ghess
Friend/Mentor - Alive

Orlaan was the first person in the Order to bring Asha out of her shell, and through him she became more confident with speaking and interaction. He is also like a mentor-figure to her, and was the first person aside from Levi to teach her anything with regards to the Jedi. Asha also connects with Orlaan, despite their huge age difference, due to his study of the Old Jedi Order and its Ethics, as well as feeling a more emotional connection with him due to his obviously difficult past which mirrors her own.

Hey Catharsis!

First off, hello again! I haven't seen you around lately, although that might just be because I don't pay enough attention. I've gone through your profile a bit just to come up with some suggestion, hope you don't mind. I have to admit, though, that it's a gorgeous profile- I love the layout. Very well done. I noticed that you're not on the New Jedi Order Faction here list, which is a bit strange. If you were previously accepted, please link me to that and I'll add you back to the roster. If not, please sign up!

So my comments.

First off, this is an interesting profile. Who's perspective is it from, though? I'd be interested to know who the "voice" that narrates her biography is.

I think that, as a Padawan, it would also be very hard for her to have two self constructed lightsaber. There is neither the skill nor the experience in Padawans to do this- lightsabers are incredibly complicated weapons. Not to mention that materials are very scarce post-skip. Moreover, a lightsaber is a part of the Jedi's identity, and as a Padawan Jedi have not found their niche or calling quite yet. It sounds to me like Asha is in the middle of a few different options. So I would suggest you reconsider those. In fact, it would be really neat to see you do a thread- or threads- to compile the resource and construct it.

My only serious problem is your skills, though. 9/10 is mastery level. A padawan can not have force skills and/or ligthsaber combat skills at mastery level. That's not for you- that's for everyone reading this. As a padawan, her ability with [FORM VI: NIMAN:] would be minimal. Certainly less than Form I, at this stage. Jedi can't learn more than two forms- unless you're the Battle Master (or probably the Grand Master)- and you would be just starting to learn your second form while you were a Padawan. If at all.

So I'm going to say pick one: Jar'Kai or Niman (yes, i understand they're similar) and stick with that and Form I. And bring it way down.

Force Empathy needs to be brought down, Telekinesis needs to be brought down... and then try to bring everything down in proportion. I know you have a few roleplays under your belt, as well as Enigma Incarnate, but this is simply too much. I should have caught it in your original profile, and I apologize for not doing so. Kiro did mention the lightsaber/combat forms in the original profile, though, and I'm a little disappointed to see that you did not address it.

But regardless- beautifully created character sheet, and really interesting character. Seeing as Padawan Seren was with Master Novan for the duration of the skip, I hope that we'll be running into each other again very soon. If you have any questions for me considering the timeskip, the Jedi, your profile, or any RPs you might want to engage in, please just let me know!

Cheers,
TAC.

Ahhh no apologies. I'd redone the biography up there ^ for her being a Knight (as it was going to be sorted for post-skip after the Faction Admin PM'd me about it) so all of the above was in preparation for that. However I decided, very recently, that I'd rather keep her a Padawan for a while (and I've just not edited the biography to show that yet) - As for the rankings, they're not to do with Mastery, they're in comparison to one another with regards to Asha as a whole, and how much she uses it. The Forms had been addressed in the former biography, as I say I tweaked this one to prepare for a rank change, then decided against it. I'm going through the process of editing all of my characters for post-time skip at the moment, Asha just hasn't been seen to yet. (I was focusing on Kara as her biography has the biggest changes to be made)

No worries.

Just please do let me know when you've finished editing her so I can take a look through again.

Also, can you please put her skills in comparisons with the site average? That's the standard on the website, so that we can compare characters to other characters and the galaxy as a whole. I don't really understand Asha, so you saying that she's "the best she can be" at something doesn't mean anything to me. But if you say, "she's decent compared to the galaxy"... well, then it gives me a better perspective.

And I don't know what you mean by "addressed," but as long as it's correct I don't mind!

Thanks for the clarification. :)

EDIT: Just as a note, I readded Asha to the roster. Your other character was already on there, so no worries.

PM'd you about it.

Also, I didn't notice the first question with regards to the voice:

It's meant to be some sort of psychologist whom Asha was sent to see due to the lack of communication/odd behaviour, etc. So it's a doctor's report, to show the Jedi that she's clear for active duty, sort of thing. If that makes sense. :)
