BIOGRAPHY
If Felis hadn't been orphaned at a young age, she probably would have ended up joining and participating in the slave trade and haughty, superior notions shared by the rest of her people. That being said, she moved around foster homes on Zygerria for the first half of her life, until one day trade took her foster family to Lothal. Felis had been entirely uninterested in the trip, in fact she'd done her best to get out of it - going so far as to try and get herself arrested. She was too young to really understand that the local authorities had no interest in actually arresting a small child if they weren't going to be a slave.
On Lothal, she had no interest in learning or paying attention to boring trade stuff. To this day she doesn't remember what that foster family was even buying (or selling), except that it wasn't slaves. Technology maybe, or food...perhaps massage services? Her foster mother constantly had people coming over for massage therapy, though Felis wasn't really certain why massages would be an exportable commodity. At any rate, she had wandered off on her own to play her own games.
One of her favorite games was obtaining candy from strangers - a game she was very good at. For starters, she was a tiny cat girl with big, innocent eyes and ears. And adults had a funny way of acquiescing and giving her candy when she turned to incessantly asking -even informing - them that they would give her candy. What she didn't know then was her demands for candy were tinged with crude, unrefined, unintentional whispers of the force. For any other demand of someone it would not have been enough to actually compel action, not like a proper Persuade. But, with her endearing, childish nature, adults minds were softened just enough for it to make a difference.
Such usage brought the attention of a Jedi. After a brief conversation (investigation) and contemplation by the Jedi, he offered the opportunity for her to learn to use the force if she wished, and to cast off the shackles of her species' reputation. Felis didn't know what that really meant, or what reputation her people had, but the idea of going anywhere with people not as boring as her foster parents seemed like an exciting one. She truthfully told the Jedi that she was an orphan, but left out the fact that she had a foster family. The Jedi must have assumed that being an orphan meant that foster parents were not in existence, for he took her with him to begin her formal training. Technically this was a kidnapping, though Felis did not realize it, and still does not.
Felis today is still very small, even for a Zygerrian. That does not reflect her personality, which is large, loud, and frustratingly innocent. She constantly fails to consider that others may have ulterior motives, and tends to take people at their word and at face value. She does take her duties and studies as a Jedi seriously...as seriously as Felis can muster, at least. She enjoys being a Jedi, and so can devote her attention to how to be a Jedi...with her own Felis flair.
