Aliyah Coven
Allegiance: Jedi Order
Species: Twi'lek Age: 23
Height: 5'10" Weight: 128lbs
The Call - Regina Spector
Overview
A young Twi'lek from Ryloth, Aliyah spent many of her former years as a slave. She was rescued by a member of the Jedi Order, thanks to her kindled force sensitivity, and taken to the nearest temple. Since then, she has devoted herself to aiding those whom had similar lots in life.
I don't remember much more than a few friendly faces, a stone-cold bed and a pitiful amount of food. I learned to speak and write, so as to be useful for copying or forging documentation. Menial chores and labor where common for us, as well as strange and unusual tasks most likely designed simply to emotionally and mentally torture us.
Even then, however, I was one of the lucky ones. As a child, I was never chosen for some of the darker tasks the slavemasters desired. As I grew older, however, that began to change, used in turn as a dancer for spare credits. It was a humbling life, being raised from nothing. I've never found out what happened to my parents. I was told they left me, but I don't believe it.
One day, everything just seemed to change. It was the same routine, as always. Wake up to work, by evening I was to be ready to dance. But something felt wrong, I felt a deep and profound anger rising inside me. It wasn't until the familiar catcalls rained from patrons mouths that I truly lost control...
I don't know how I made the room tremble. I don't know how I tore aside a metal table and hurled it into a wall. But I do know that my actions stemmed from an hungering fire deep within. If it wasn't for The Jedi (I will put a PC here), who sensed my distress and bought me from my owners, I had little doubt I'd have been killed or worse. I wanted to go back for the rest of them, but I was told there was nothing to be done. One Jedi, no matter how powerful, could not dismantle the entire slave ring overnight.
The Jedi took me to a strange world, filled with lush forests and massive temples. There he introduced me to the ways of his Order. Mighty warriors of a mystical energy known as the Force. He and his peers where a marvelous sight, and I knew from that moment on this home was a place for me. I took to studying all that I could, training in all aspects of the Jedi Religion, as much as they could teach me. But my training has only just begun.
One Jedi cannot topple a slave ring overnight. But given a year or two, I'll most certainly start making dents.
And that's only the beginning.

Powers and Abilities
-
Aliyah has developed a respectable amount of skill in the basics of the Force. She has begun comprehensive training in the art of telekinesis, able to lift small objects through sheer effort. Her Force Skills are otherwise centered around herself, from gentle bursts of speed to kinetic bursts of energy.The Force
Her brief tap into the well of the Dark Side instilled a healthy fear of it's hunger. She thought on what drew her rage, seeking guidance from those around her. Finding inner peace would be a lifelong challenge, but she has endured. -
Aliyah began with the simplest and most versatile of lightsaber forms, Sii-Cho. The scripts provided at the temple where sufficient in teaching theory.Combat
Aliyah can use a blaster as well as anyone can. That is to say, she isn't particularly gifted and has had next to no practice. No slave is ever allowed to touch a weapon, although sticks did substitute as toy swords. Her understanding of most blasters is simple; point and shoot. -
Even as a child, she was useful for the forging of notes or thieving of items. Her skills are not nearly used as often anymore, but she will use them if necessary. Although she is unable to fly a starship, she can use land speeders or similar vehicles.Skills
She can also be quite seductive under select circumstances. More useful in her past, it's not a trick she employs often at all. With that, however, comes a good deal of false charisma. She is able to talk her way into or out of most situations, only breaking to timidity when pushed too far. -
Inventory:Misc.
Lightsaber (Blue)
Jedi Robes
Aliyah currently does not own any starships or droids.
