Xenya (ZZ Pop)
Name: Xenya (also known as ZZ Pop)
Real-Life Faceclaim: Irine Meier
Organization: Bounty Hunter's Guild
Force-sensitive: Unknown
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Exceptional combatant, soldier, and bounty hunter
Species: Human Mix
About the species:
TBD
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Pale gray or white hair
Eyes: Emerald green
Skin: Olive (tanned)
Height: 5 foot 9
Extra Details:
Extremely versed in weaponry, including underground or black market items that are otherwise illegal or unknown.
BIO:
Xenya, known informally as ZZ or ZZ Pop, is an infamous bounty hunter and black market weapons dealer. As part of the official
Bounty Hunter's Guild, she is well-travelled and well-known. She has a reputation on many planets and within the Bounty Hunter's Guild as being feisty, reckless, yet incredibly accomplished. ZZ is as captivating physically as she is mentally, with an exceptionally charming personality. The saying "like selling fur to a Wookie" has been used to describe her sales and manipulation tactics, allowing ZZ to convince and con even the smartest of individuals into purchasing her goods or investing in her services.
Regardless of her mischievous and often careless lifestyle, Xenya is actually a trained warrior, whom was born into a militarized genetic program aimed to breeding super soldiers. Her and her identical twin sister (Xenayda - see bio below), were both born to mystery parents and do not know anything about their ethnic or genetic lineage. Considered test-tube babies, the two orphans only ceased military testing near puberty after massacring their entire unit in order to escape confinement. Despite being bonded by birth, trauma, and the refuge of freedom, the twins grew apart as they grew older, and their paths greatly diverged.
Plot Idea(s):
Because Xenya (ZZ) is usually hanging around pretty scuzzy places, she can be paired with virtually any character; be it someone who has a bounty on their head, another fellow bounty hunter, or someone trying to purchase arms from her. I could also see ZZ being a big drinker and gambler, as she socializes frequently to swindle people into investing into a number of businesses, programs, and products.
Another option is that your character crosses paths with ZZ because of her past as a super soldier candidate. Perhaps after all these years, the program is trying to eliminate the twins or retrieve them to revive their previous program.

Xenayda (Zeus)
Name: Xenayda (Zeus)
Real-Life Faceclaim: Irine Meier
Organization: Assassin's Allegiance
Force-sensitive: Unknown
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Exceptional combatant, warrior and assassin
Species: Human Mix
About the species:
TBD
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Dark brown and light pink
Eyes: Hazel-Green
Skin: Olive (tanned)
Height: 5 foot 9
Extra Details:
Cybernetic and weaponized bodily enhancements.
BIO:
Xenayda, known formally as Zeus, is a skilled assassin part of the
Assassin's Allegiance. With advanced cybernetics and many other genetic modifications to her body, Zeus is an expert killer. While most think Zeus is the street name for a
male assassin, most are surprised to learn that the reputation belongs to a woman. Despite her tactical talents, Xenayda is not a cold-blooded murderer as many assume. She is an assassin with a code of honor, and does not accept requests to murder children, most women, nor anyone she deems to be free of guilt or wrong-doing. As one of the most successful assassins in the allegiance, Zeus researches her subjects before fully accepting to assassinate them.
In addition, Xenayda is actually a trained warrior, whom was born into a militarized genetic program aimed to breeding super soldiers. Her and her identical twin sister (Xenya - see bio above), were both born to mystery parents and do not know anything about their ethnic or genetic lineage. Considered test-tube babies, the two orphans only ceased military testing near puberty after massacring their entire unit in order to escape confinement. Despite being bonded by birth, trauma, and the refuge of freedom, the twins grew apart as they grew older, and their paths greatly diverged.
Plot Idea(s):
This can be as simple as a case of an assassin being targeted for an assassination, or as complex as Zeus taking on a case that become far more complicated than she could have ever imagined. Your character can either be one of her targets, a target she is still investigating (considering) or can be an assassin trying to target her. I could also swing a storyline where Zeus is hired to prevent an assassination attempt, or is used as some kind of body guard for a target that has a known hit.
Another option is that your character crosses paths with Zeus because of her past as a super soldier candidate. Perhaps after all these years, the program is trying to eliminate the twins or retrieve them to revive their previous program.

Force-sensitive: No (can be changed)
Lightsaber: None
Specialty: Exceptional soldier and assailant, capable of great manipulation
Species: Umbaran
About the species:
The Umbarans, also known as the Shadow People, were a near-human species native to the planet of
Umbara. They were characterized by their pale, bluish skin and colorless eyes. In the waning decades of the Galactic Republic, the Umbarans were represented in the pan-galactic Senate by
Mee Deechi. However, after Deechi's murder by a fellow senator during the Clone Wars, they joined the
Confederacy of Independent Systems, bringing their extremely advanced technology to the enemies of the Republic. On their gloomy homeworld of Umbara, the so-called "Shadow People" formed an organized society divided into castes, and they constantly schemed to improve their social rank. Their technology was more advanced than that found in most of the galaxy. A traditional Umbaran garment was the voluminous shadow cloak.
- Homeworld: Umbara
- Language: Basic, Umbaran
- Extra Details: Rumored to be able to read minds, manipulated, ability to see in the ultraviolet spectrum
APPEARANCE:
Hair: White
Eyes: Colorless/ gray

Extra Details:
Extremely muscular, scar over the left-side of her face, freckles, dressed in militia armor and uniform.
BIO:
Damaris is a renowned soldier (soldat) of the Draconian Military, the biggest branch of Umbaran military, best known for its advanced weaponry, space-crafts, and technology. She has no official ranking title, as she has no official identity or paperwork. She is known simply as a rumor, someone to whom most refer to as "
Shadow-Ipsa", derived from the Umbra species nick-name of "Shadow People". Damaris reports to the commander of the Draconian military, known as "
Draco" (title of the highest rank). The Draconian military has had several Shadow-Ipsa throughout history, however because of the anonymity and secrecy of the organization, most have been impossible to identify.
Plot Idea(s):
Damaris is dispatched on a new mission where she will meet your character (some way, some how). Perhaps their paths collide when Damaris is sent on a head-hunt, or perhaps she herself is targeted by someone seeking to assassinate the
Shadow-Ipsa. Also willing to introduce Damaris in a fight scene. Since she is a soldier, it is dully possible to have her show up on a battered battlefield to fend for the Draconian army.

Real-life Faceclaim:
Cara Delevingne
Status/ Organization: Dark Knight (Ex-Sith)
Force-sensitive: YES
Lightsaber: Red & Blue (two)
Specialty: Uses the dark side of the Force, exceptional combat, night vision
Species: Chiss Mix
About the species:
- The Chiss were a tall, blue-skinned Near-Human civilization from the planet Csilla in the Unknown Regions, best known to most Humans as the people to which Grand Admiral Thrawn belonged. Due to the remote position of their home territory in the Chiss Ascendancy they remained largely an enigma to the rest of the galaxy, and contact with outsiders was limited even in the days of the Galactic Alliance.
- Homeworld: Csilla
- Language: Cheunh, Sy Bisti, Minnisiat, Other languages
- Extra details: Not normally force-sensitive, good night vision
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Glowing white
Eyes: Bright red
Skin: Light blue
Height: 5 foot 9
Extra Details:
Wields several lightsaber combinations, including one that is red and another a bright blue. Often has half her face covered by a mask, especially in battle.
BIO:
Zrora'krudu'duotta is a Chiss mix and anarchist commonly known as Zrora for short (pronounced Z-roar-a). She is the leading founder of the anarchist mercenary group called the Dark Knights. The Dark Knights are made up of fallen Jedis, Dark Jedis, and fallen/estranged Sith who have rejected the ideologies of both the Jedi and Sith Order. They are force-users who do not identify solely to one Order or the other. They are extremists who are at war with corruption, politics, and both Jedi and Sith. All members of the Dark Knight organization share a united belief – that one does not have to adhere strictly to one side of the force, or the other. Dark Knights believe both light and dark can be used together to achieve optimal meaning and use. Most Dark Knights have fallen from the Sith Order in order to escape its evil. Those who have fallen from the Jedi Order do not embrace evil, but rather, believe that the aggression-free and emotion-free ways of the Jedi are too weak, and not abrasive enough to create change.
Plot Idea(s):
Zrora can be paired with any kind of character - anything from a Jedi, Sith, to even a bounty hunter. I have no specifics for her, however it would be interesting to pair her against someone who questions her abilities, ideologies, or morals. Since she is a fallen Sith and continues to use the dark side of the Force, many (especially Jedis) may be reluctant to trust her.
Name: Caelcian "Cici" Fett
Real-Life Faceclaim: Clara Alonso
Organization: BOUNTY HUNTER
Force-sensitive: YES
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Exceptional combatant and warrior
Species: Mandalorian Human
About the species:
Mandalorian was a demonym that referred to the people of the planet Mandalore. Mandalorian clan structure was like a pyramid, with the ruler or Mand'alor at the top and the Protectors enforcing their rule. Below them were the political factions known as Houses, made up of family Clans. The Mandalorians had a strong code of honor that could be invoked to settle disputes with one-on-one combat that would conclude with the death of one opponent. They spoke Mando'a as well as Galactic Basic.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Extremely long dark brown hair
Eyes: Blue-green
Skin: Porcelain/pale
Height: 5 foot 8
Extra Details:
Lightsaber-resistant armour and weaponry.
BIO:
Caelcian Fett [
pronounced: kale-see-in] is a descendant of Boba Fett and the Clan Fett. Her mother, however, was not of Mandolorian descent, raising Cici [
pronounced: see-see] without the Mandalorian way of life. Because of being separated from the Mandalorian community, Cici found herself in an identity crisis as a teenager, and returned to Mandalore to explore her identity and birthright training. Once back on her home planet, she was taken in by Clan Fett to be trained. She became an expert in weaponry, martial arts and battle, ascending to her true Mandalorian self and adopting their code of ethics, honour, and ruthlessness. She went on to become an infamous bounty hunter, taking on the colors and uniform of Clan Fett to wreak havoc on the galaxy.
Plot Idea(s):
As a bounty hunter, Cici has ben found anywhere in the galaxy. Your character could be one of her accepted targets, or perhaps even a target gets placed on her own head. It can equally be a happenstance, where our characters cross paths by accident either through battle or drama. Many possibilities!

The Desert Rat
Name: Cheyadiskya (Cheya)
Organization: N/A
Force-sensitive: Potentially
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Excellent mechanic and podracer
Species: Twi'lek
About the species:
Twi'leks, sometimes referred to disparagingly as "Tail-heads", were an omnivorous humanoid species originating from the planet Ryloth. They tended to eat cultivated molds, fungi, and rycrit meat. Their distinctive features included colorful skin, which varied in pigment from individual to individual, and a pair of shapely prehensile tentacles that grew from the base of their skulls. The tentacles, called "brain-tails", "lekku", "tchun-tchin", or "head-tails" were advanced organs used for communication and cognitive functions. Twi'leks possessed a fairly standard humanoid vocal structure and were capable of learning most alien languages; however, they usually preferred their native language of Ryl, which incorporated subtle movement of the lekku. When they wished, they could even communicate in complete secrecy using their versatile brain-tails. Twi'lek females were often used as slaves or dancers because of their beauty.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: None, two Lekkus
Eyes: Silver
Skin: Bright green
Height: 5 foot 1
Extra Details:
Severe scarring on the right side of her face, slight scarring on the left.
BIO:
Cheya is a desert rat from the rural planet of Tatooine. She has very few memories of her parents, having been orphaned and enslaved as a toddler. She lives in one of the few inhabited cities called
Mos Eisley, an infamous spaceport known to host the scummiest of dealers. Like most, Cheya is immersed in a life of poverty and uses her skills as a mechanic to scrap together enough of a wage to survive. However, she is not a free woman, and most of her salary is owed to her debtor. Although she charges a pretty credit for her repairs, she is barely surviving on the little commission she makes. Although very young and of foreign species for the deserted planet, Cheya is well-known for being one of the best space mechanics at the port. She is also known in the underground of Tatooine as Chey-Chey; a successful podracer who has competed several times in the
Boonta Eve Classic.
Plot Idea(s):
Because Cheya is indebted, she cannot leave Tatoine without facing potentially detrimental consequences. Her debt will have to be paid off, or she will have to a runaway with a bounty on her head. I'd like to start the RP in Mos Eisley, where Cheya may meet your character due to an issue related to mechanics. Since she is the best of the best, Cheya meets clients of all kinds, ranks, and status in Mos Eisley.

The Fallen Padawan
Name: Xen'Kya Renko
Real-life Faceclaim:
Moya P
Organization: Jedi Order (previously)
Force-sensitive: Yes
Lightsaber: Bright yellow (previously)
Specialty: Absolutely fearless
Species: Zabrak-Human Mix
About the species:
Zabraks were a near-human carnivorous species native to the planet Iridonia. The species had distinctive horns atop their heads and two hearts.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Black
Eyes: Lavender
Skin: Beige with an orange hue
Height: 5 foot 7
Extra Details:
Small horns scattered over her forehead and scalp, with black line tattoos running from her eyes down to her chin.
BIO:
Xen'Kya [
pronounced: zen-kia] was a troubled Jedi student. She was exceptionally force-sensitive as a young child and recruited rather late into the academy. Xen'Kya, more commonly known by her last name - Renko - was an extraordinary combatant, however lacked greatly in teamwork and social courtesies. She was known primarily for her fearless spirit, but this lack of worry often left her with poor judgment. She was a firecracker, disobedient, a Jedi delinquent in both her attitude and her constant nightlife escapades. A constant problem for any Master, she bounced around from trainer to trainer. Close to expulsion, her case was presented at a meeting in order to determine if her cunning wit and strong skills could outweigh her recklessness, however she lost her case - and was disbanded from the academy.
Renko saw this as a betrayal, and rather than adhering to the Jedi way to earn her way back into the Jedi Academy, she became a Fallen Jedi. Xen'Kya fell into the criminal underworld of Coruscant, using her brute strength and combat skills to become an assailant. She became known as "The Krohza" to the darkest side of Coruscant; a Zabrak word meaning "The Crow" or "Raven". Renko was a 'collector', a bounty hunter of sorts retrieving all owed goods from credits, to precious jewels, to expensive artifacts, and even...
bodies.
Plot Idea(s):
This story would likely begin in the underbelly of Coruscant, where Renko mostly operates. Because she is in the business of retrieving cargo (in any form), your character could cross paths with her in any setting. It is likely that the two will meet as a by-product of her assignment. Perhaps your character is the owner of the item Renko is to retrieve, or perhaps your character has a bounty on their head but is requested to be acquired
alive.
Another idea is that the Jedi Academy gets word of her recent life of crime and decide to send a Jedi (or padawan) to intervene. Similarly, we could also pair her with a Sith or apprentice sent to recruit Renko to the dark side of the Force.

The Princess of Datar
Name: Princess Idalia of Datar
Organization: Thustran Monarch
Force-sensitive: Potentially
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: N/A
Species: Ghostling-Sephi hybrid
About the species:
Ghostlings were a species of ethereal humanoids indigenous to the planet Datar. While mostly Human-like in anatomy, Ghostlings had key differences from that species. The Ghostlings' shiny, tan-coloredskin radiated an aura of light. Their lower limbs ended in five-toed feet that gave the species a tip-toe posture. Because they were accustomed to the low gravity of their homeworld, Ghostlings were quickly overexerted on planets with higher gravitational pull. They were easily injured in such conditions, with a mere touch enough to cause a bruise and with even a slight blow potentially proving fatal. They were also sought after as pets or slaves by individuals who valued the Ghostlings for their extreme beauty and rarity. Ghostlings and Humans found each other mutually fascinating and attractive. However, due to the fragile structure of the Ghostlings, sexual relations between the two species inevitably proved fatal to the Ghostling partner.
Sephi were a species of humanoids indigenous to Thustra. They were very similar in appearance to Humanstock, the key difference being their long, pointed ears. Many Sephi were tall and healthy-looking, with a narrow waistline and long-fingered hands. The Sephi evolved on Thustra, a terrestrial planet located in the eponymous star system of the Sumitra sector, in the Expansion Region of the galaxy. The Sephi formed a space-level civilization led by a monarch. Due to the species' longevity, Sephi sovereigns tended to stay in place for a long time. They had developed a culture of elegance and sophistication in art, which was even reflected in the delicate design of their walkers, flyers and tanks. They had contacts with the wider galactic community, or at least with the Arkanians. For centuries, they stood as staunch defenders of the Republic, and the Sephi monarch exerted a powerful influence over the neighboring systems. They were also in good terms with the Jedi Order.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: White
Eyes: Emerald green
Skin: Golden (glowing)
Height: 4 foot 11
Extra Details:
Big scar on left side of face from the eye down the cheek.
BIO:
Idalia is the one of the only mixed Ghostling individuals in history. She is the first-ever child to be born as a result of Ghostling and Sephi breeding. Because Ghostling's are so delicate in form, breeding with other species normally results in the Ghostling's death. Despite this, while on a mission on Datar, the Prince of Thustra, a Sephi man, fell in love with a Ghostling Duchess named Geshalyn. Despite their relational difficulties, the two were determined to have a baby. While the Prince was visiting Datar, Geshalyn became pregnant with Idalia, who was born prematurely. Due to post-natal complications, Geshalyn became ill, and died as a result of the birth of her daughter. With nothing left in Datar, the Prince took his daughter to his homeworld, Thustra, where she would grow under the heading of royalty.
Because Idalia was raised on Thustra, she became better accustomed to standard (higher) gravity, and grew to be stronger than Ghostlings. Although she still bruised easier than most humanoids, she was not nearly as fragile as her maternal species. As she aged, she became increasingly beautiful and sought out after by many potential suitors for her exotic and glowing appearance.
Additional/Optional: She was kidnapped by slave traffickers and smuggled off of Thustra to be sold on the black market. Due to her genetic hybridization, she was considered not only rare and beautiful, but unique; a one-of-a-kind (a quality highly sought after).
Plot Idea(s):
Many possibilities. Your character could be someone sent to rescue her from her kidnappers, or could even be an individual sent to purchase her or smuggle her.

The Servus of Dorion
Name: Alzeena - Servus of Dorion
Organization: N/A
Force-sensitive: Potentially
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Mutated, Albino
Species: Orc (Fantasy-Based)
About the species:
*Non-Star Wars Content*
Orcs are a species found commonly in the Fantasy genre, not so much Sci-Fi, however, I love this picture, and would love to incorporate the classic species into the Star Wars universe.
Orcs are a humanoid species from the planet
Tolkien. Tolkien was a swampy and densely forested wetland planet part of the Mid Rim Systems. They are home to the native species Orc, who are widely known by their large sizes, bow-legs and long arms. They are generally larger than humans (and starkly different) and are physically stronger. Orcs are generally ugly and filthy, with prominent fangs, tusks, and facial features tending toward the grotesque (generally a mixture of the ape-like and pig-like). Their skin is typically a shade of green, gray, black, brown, or sometimes red.
Orcs are aggressive scavengers and opportunistic carnivores (with a taste for both in-species cannibalism and human flesh). While possessing a low cunning and crude culture of their own, they are generally portrayed as a subject race used as soldiers (or battle fodder) by beings of greater power and intelligence. Violent by nature, they will fight ferociously if compelled or directed by a guiding will, but tend towards more chaotic behavior (including cowardice) if left to their own devices. They often use boars, wolves, and wargs, and other unusual beasts for battle transport.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Silver and gray
Eyes: Sclera Silver
Skin: Greenish-Beige
Height: 6 foot 3
Extra Details:
Small upper body with wide hips and thick thighs. Extremely muscular, especially legs.
BIO:
"Do not look upon thee, for she is deformed, and ugly."
- An Orcan woman, in reference to her slave, Alzeena
Although objectively beautiful to most Human, Near-Human, and Humanoid standards, Alzeena is considered, by her Orc civilization to be mutated, albino, and hideous. Her appearance deviates from normal Orcan biology by the paleness of her skin, the strange purple pattern over most of her face and body, and her small facial features; such as her petite and narrow nose, shrunken tusks, and round head. Because of her deviant appearance, she was disowned by her mother and sold as a slave child to a wealthier Orc family. Alzeena served a prestigious Orcan lineage, known on Tolkien as the Dorions, whom had many ties and relations to the outside world.
A typical Orc has larger, more brute features, such as in this
example.
Plot Idea(s):
In terms of how she's fit into the Star Wars universe, there are so many ways we can incorporate her. Because she is a slave and of little Orcan value, she could be sold to someone. She could also come in contact with many other species from the galaxy. A general idea could be that someone would come to Tolkien to do business of some sort, or even your character would end up on Tolkien by accident (perhaps crash landed), and stumbled across my character, who would be unlike anything he's ever seen.

The Gasglow Killer
Name: Tazaria “Tazmaniac"
Organization: N/A
Force-sensitive: No
Specialty: Assassin and mercenary, exceptional shooter and combatant
Species: Zeltron Mix
About the species:
Zeltrons were a near-Human species, made physically distinctive by their skin which came in different shades of red ranging from light pink to deep red, and hair which could be red or blue. Most of them were considered highly attractive by Human, near-Human, and even some non-humanoid standards. They possessed two biological traits of note. The first was that they all produce potent pheromones, similar to the Falleen species, which enhanced their attractiveness and likeability. The second was a limited telepathic ability, used to project emotions onto others, as well as allowing them to read and even feel the emotions of others; some Zeltrons were hired by the Exchange for this ability. Because of their telepathic ability, positive emotions such as happiness, love and pleasure became very important to them, while negative ones such as anger, fear, or depression were shunned.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Dark indigo (purple-blue hue)
Eyes: White schlera, silver eyes
Skin: Light pink
Height: 5 foot 8
Extra Details:
Perceived as extremely beautiful, Tazaria is a hunter and killer as much as she is a seductress. She takes many shapes in order to lure her prey. Tazaria also has several markings (tattoos) on her face, chest, and other parts of her body).
BIO:
Many have described Tazaria, known only by the pseudonym “Tazmaniac”, as a perceived psychopath. Since gaining recognition in the past few years for her insurmountable amount of kills, Tazmaniac has become one of the Most Wanted criminals and assassins in the Galactic region. Known most commonly by her trademark, a
Gasglow smile, which she leaves on every single one of her victims. Also dubbed the “Gasglow Killer”, her kills are normally of people who are of political or criminal significance. Although some victims may appear to be innocent citizens, investigations are consistently leading to secrets of the individual, normally revolving around themes of corruption, drug and sex trafficking, paedophilia, rape and hidden violence.
Plot Idea(s):
Local law enforcement is under grave pressure to put a stop to the Gasglow Killings. Because of this, they enlist in the help of other organizations (perhaps Jedi, perhaps Sith, perhaps Bounty Hunter's Guild) in order to find her. This can bring our character's together. Another idea is that your character is her next target, or perhaps is a bodyguard or associate of her next target.
Name: Nereida
Status/ Organization: Ambassador for the Kingdoms of Nereusis, Nereusian royalty
Force-sensitive: YES (but untrained with the Force)
Lightsaber: None
Specialty: Exceptional aquatic abilities, cartilaginous skeleton, night vision
Species: Nereusian
About the species:
* This is an original species, which does not formally exist in the Star Wars universe *
- Nereusians were humanoid aquatic species native to the ocean planet, Nereusis. Nereusis was a small planet in which mass is made up of majority ocean and freshwater. Nereusian's were often considered Near-Human, as their figure physically resembled that of humans. They were tall, typically between 6 and 7 feet, were bipedal with long legs, shorter torsos, and webbed toes. Their feet were similar to humans in that they had distinct toes, though were only made up of one big toe and three smaller (but still elongated) digits that were all webbed to support their aquatic lifestyle. Despite this, Nereusians had human-like five digit hands that were only partially webbed. Like many other aquatic species, Nereusians had many sea-like features, such as color skin patterns, scales, and various forms of fins that were most often found on their forearms, elbows, shins, shoulders, neck, face and head. Rather than hair on their head, Nereusians had something called a Dorsal Gown, which essentially acted like a light, soft, flowy fin that was often wide and lengthy. Additionally, the species was capable of both breathing through lungs and gills. They had a cartilaginous skeleton, which made them very flexible. They also possessed double-layered eyes that allowed them to switch from dark/night vision to light/day vision. It also worked to provide impeccable eyesight both in and out of water. Nereusians were completely amphibious – capable of living out of water as much as in.
Throughout their evolution and technological advancements, Nereusians have mainly cemented on land by the shore, and live mostly out of the water (though, they do require water-contact and much hydration to survive). They developed a complex Parliamentary government consisting of several political parties known as Kingdoms. Each Kingdom represents a geographic area and group of people (called a district), which is ruled by a group of leaders that are chosen by the people. Each Kingdom runs its own district, though, for issues pertaining to the entire planet, or outer-planet concerns, the Kingdoms gather together in unity to rule and decide. Nereusians also have a lavish and rich culture. They are highly intelligent and artistic, and embellish themselves in lavish gowns and natural jewelry (from the lands) which are often used to symbolize status and respect within the community.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: N/A – Dorsal Fin
Eyes: Sclera blue
Skin: Gray and multicoloured pattern
Height: 5 foot 9
Extra Details:
Very slim, almost lanky physique with several fins across the body. Slightly webbed fingers and toes.
BIO:
The planet of Nereusis, ruled in unison by 13 Kingdoms (districts), despite their educated and wealthy empire, have mostly failed in terms of universal communication. They have mainly stayed secluded from galactic affairs, wars, and political conflict in order to keep neutrality and peace. Though, recently, pressure on the Kingdoms to branch out led to the launch of a project known as “Galactic Gaia”. This project would create a bigger, better, more universal space station that would provide Nereusians access to other galaxies. The project would provide flights to and from Nereusis to the space station – which would be used as a terminal for other species and companies. The decision was made mainly to allow Nereusians to travel off-planet, but was mostly heavily influenced by the specie's growing interest in the Force. Nereusians are highly force-sensitive species, but lack of universal communication has not allowed them to embrace adequate training. As part of the Galactic Gaia project, the Jedi Order has joined the mission to seek out and train Nereusians, giving them that once lacked opportunity.
Nereida is a Nereusian political representative for the Kingdom of District Atlympia. She was voted by the 13 Kingdoms of Nereusis to be the planet's Ambassador and representative to the outside universe. She was chosen by both district parties, and by the people of Nereusis. She acts as the lead communicator between Nereusis and the outside world, but more specifically, works hand-in-hand with the Jedi Order to ensure both the safety and satisfaction of her people. She would be among the first of her kind to leave the homeworld to live in Coruscant. She is as intrinsically beautiful as she is respected, and very intelligent.
Plot Idea(s):
The story can begin either in Coruscant or on the water planet of Nereusis. It would be easy to pair Nereida with a Jedi (padawan, Master, etc.). However, I am open to other possibilities!

Species: Vahla
About the species:
The Vahla were a nomadic, near-Human species who roamed the galaxy in search of their homeworld. They were tall and slender, and possessed cartilaginous skeletons, which gave them exceptional flexibility. All were Force-sensitive, and they were regarded as having a natural shrewdness about them. Many Vahla belonged to a dark side-cult called the Ember of Vahl, and all Vahla were expected to heed the dictates of the cult's central coven.
- Homeworld: Lost Vahla homeworld

APPEARANCE:
Hair: White

Height: 5 foot 3
Extra Details:
Symbol of the Ember of Vahl tattooed on her forehead
BIO:
Zelenia was born and raised in the highly religious culture of Vahla, where the Dark Side of the Force is worshiped. Born with ashy-white hair and fairer skin than most, she was blessed for her resemblance to the Vahla deity; the Goddess Vahl. Zelenia, like most Vahlas, was highly force sensitive, and was enrolled in the Sith Order at a very young age for training. She was taught to use the sheer rawness of her emotions in order to deepen the connection to the Force, and fuel her power. She trained under a Master who was cruel, often manipulating her emotional state in order to produce results. He was constantly unhappy with her performance, despite constantly proving her extraordinary abilities to him. He became unhealthily obsessed with her, and soon began to resort to violence to battle his desire for her. That is, until he couldn't resist her any longer, and forced himself on her. He raped and violated her, and when she tried to escape, he chained her in a dungeon. In this confinement, he tortured and abused Zelenia, trying to get her to agree to marry him. When she relentlessly refused, and after months of failed attempts, he banished her from the Sith Order, and sold her to a slave dealer. She was stripped of her lightsaber, and enslaved as property.
She was sold to a slum crime lord, who used her beauty and good looks to make money. He used her as a slave dancer, and promised her freedom if she performed willingly and made triple her purchase fee. She ended up earning more money in week than three dancers combined, and was able to offer him her pay-back after just 10 days. When he refused to free her without having sex with her, something in Zelenia changed. She became enraged, and for the first time, was able to yield the energy of the force in her palm without the use of a lightsaber. Completely consumed with uncontrollable anger, she slayed the crime lord, and freed the slaves.
Zelenia, now free, returned to the Sith Order and surprised her Master by murdering him. She crucified his naked body, castrated him, replaced his eyeballs with his testicles, and stuffed his own phallus down his throat. All this to send a message: a lot of people were about to die. Taking back the lightsaber he had taken from her, Zelenia went on a killing rampage which would later become known as the “Sith Slaughter”. Full chaos broke out in the facility, and by the time Zelenia was done, she had killed over 200 people, freed over three dozen, and had successfully escaped.
Once the news spread across the nations, Zelenia had become a sort of antihero to many communities, including her own. She became widely known as “Dark Jedi Vahla”; and not as an evil Sith, but now as a passionate freedom fighter. In proving to the universe that raw emotions and darkness could be used in a twisted tale of good faith, Zelenia not only redefined her religion, but triggered a public galactic anarchy against both the Sith and Jedi Order.
Plot Idea(s):
Zelenia is a complex character with complex history. This means that her storyline can overlap with many different kinds of character. She will have as many fans as enemies, with many people either wanting to recruit her or kill her. Your character can be anything from a Jedi, Sith, or even hunter. Mabe Zelenia goes on the run and needs shelter, and your character is the one she encounters.
Name: Eris
Real-life Faceclaim: Jessica Stam
Organization: N/A
Force-sensitive: YES
Lightsaber: White
Specialty: Highest midichlorian count since the creation of Anakin Skywalker (over 20,000 per cell), extreme destructive power when using the Force
Species: Echani
About the species:
- The Echani were a Near-Human species from the Inner Rim world Eshan. The Echani had anatomy similar to humans, but a common feature was that they had light skin, white hair and silver eyes. They exhibited among themselves a remarkable sameness in body type and facial traits. It was believed that the Echani were a result of Arkanian experimentation with the Human genome, a theory which could explain the resemblance among these members of the species.
- Homeworld: Eshan
- Extra Details: Exceptional fighters, warriors, and tactical combatants
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Silver
Eyes: Silver
Skin: Pale-white
Height: 5 foot 6
Extra Details:
None.
BIO:
Eris is a young female character who's existence was first brought to the conscious of Yoda when one stormy night – 21 years ago – there was a massive “disturbance in the Force” that was so immense, it awoke nearly an entire community of force-sensitives across the universe. This was the birth of Eris, soon to be known as one of the most powerful Force users in the universe since Anakin Skywalker. It is estimated that her midichlorian count is in excess of over 20,000 per blood cell. This would make Eris not only the first female to possess such power, but it would also make her the first Force user in the history of the Echani race (a race that is not force-sensitive).
Eris is the product of genetic testing by the infamous intellects, the Arkanians. Arkanians, also not force-sensitive, have been known for their crazy experiments, and are rumored to have even created the Echani species. Through a series of years-long tests and genetic engineering, the Arkanians secretly found a way to increase midichlorian counts in blood cells through an infusion process, which would enable species with low-counts, to then have the potential to use the Force. The experimentation, all illegal and conducted in secrecy, failed for the better half of a century, until there was a breakthrough with a Human surrogate who was impregnated with an Echani-bred fetus, specially test-tube engineered with high resilience to survive the experiments.
When the surrogate – a Human containing already high midichlorian counts – was given a DNA-enhancement infusion, her midichlorians began to duplicate. Slowly at first, and then suddenly increasing in speed – lodging the body into a critical antibody reaction. Such reaction caused the blood cells to begin to multiply at an incredible rate. Within minutes of the infusion, the facility was thrown in chaos. The patient surrogate (and her baby) were mutating. The infusion caused an inexperienced force-user to quickly turn into an uncontrollable, unstoppable force. Before anyone could administer any sort of treatment, the surrogate detonated, leaving an enormous Force-powered explosion that blew the facility to pieces. Leaving hundreds dead, millions of force-users awoke to a deep and troubling
disturbance in the Force.
Plot Idea(s):
Eris survives the explosion (her birth) and is smuggled out of the facility. Despite her genetic mutations, she grows to be a strong, healthy female. She does not resurface to the would until she is 21, when she discovers the truth of her birth, origins, and abilities. Because Eris has an element of chaos that surrounds her, I would love to see her storyline be packed with action, war, battles, turmoil, etc. I'm thinking she is mostly untrained, and will need guidance.

The Royal Immune
Name: Princess Adara of Arkania
Real-life Faceclaim: Model Unknown
Status/ Organization: Royalty (Princess, pureblood)
Force-sensitive: NO
Specialty: Immune to most diseases and toxins
Species: Arkanian
About the species:
- The Arkanians were a near-Human species which resided primarily on the frozen planet of Arkania. Arkanians considered themselves the pinnacle of evolution, and as such many were distinctly arrogant. Arkanian scientists had been experts in genetic manipulation for millennia, and by the time of the Mandalorian Wars the species had been split into many sub-species, making it hard to determine exactly what a baseline Arkanian was. Most could pass for Human, though the most pure of blood had pure white eyes and four clawed digits on each hand. Arkanians were capable of seeing into the infrared spectrum, and their eyes were sensitive to sources of extreme heat. This was helpful on their dark and frigid homeworld, but when traveling offworld, many were forced to wear blinders on planets with hotter, younger suns. It was also not unusual for an Arkanian to enhance themselves with internal and/or external cybernetics. It was also standard practice for Arkanians to undergo genetic manipulation of their own bodies, enhancing themselves so as to be better than "lesser" species.
- Homeworld: Arkania
- Language: Arkanian
- Extra Details: Possess extreme intelligence, have four-clawed hands, and are able to see into the infrared spectrum
APPEARANCE:
Hair: White
Eyes: White (both sclera and iris)
Skin: Pale-white
Height: 5 foot 2
Extra Details:
Normally wearing royal garments and jewelry.
BIO:
Adara is a noble woman formally known as Princess Adara of Arkania or as Adara of the House of Adasca. She is a leading member of the Adasca family, who are very wealthy noblemen made up of Arkanian purebloods. The Adasca family is responsible for a large majority of planetary profits. The House of Adasca founded and run the Adasca BioMechanical Corporation of Arkania (or known simply as Adascorp), which is a vast medical organization famous for its bioengineering and medical research. The family, as well as their corporation, have strong influence in the Arkanian Dominion (government). The family is also responsible for the ancient capital, Adascopolis, which strictly segregates Arkanian Offshoots (non-purebloods) from the city.
The House of Adasca was known for their involvement with many organizations on and off Arkania. Recently, Adascorp had entered a mutual agreement with several scientific and political powerhouses all searching for the same thing: disease immunity. Since the Arkanians had garnered a reputation for genetic mutation, a cure for many common disease and poisons was on the horizon. It took several years and countless failed tests before the species engineered any sort of definitive vaccine,
but they did. Before the vaccine could be finalized, approved, and mass-produced for the general public, a security breach left the facility crippled. Military-grade spies broke into the medical research facility and proceeded an outward attack on the building. Shooting dead anyone that got in their way, the team of intruders moved quickly and violently to capture their target; the vaccine.
With the facility surrounded, and nowhere left to run to or hide, the Head of Adasca, Adara's father, was left trapped with nothing but a single vial of the antidote, and his daughter. In a desperate attempt to save his company's breakthrough, the royal leader stabbed the vial into Adara's arm, and injected her with the vaccine. When the intruders broke into the room only to discover the vaccine was lost in the body and blood of the Arkanian noblewoman, the masked men kidnapped the royal Princess and escaped.
Plot Idea(s):
Adara is now immune to various diseases and effects of poison, and because of this, is now being kidnapped for her immunity. As a wealthy royal, a huge reward is set by the House of Adasca for her safe return. In addition, many other bounties are placed on her head. Many people want to smuggle her for genetic testing, while other organizations want her dead (becuase they do not want the vaccine to launch). Many avenues we can explore there!

The Wanted Criminal
Name: Kanara (known as Skyhawk)
Status/ Organization: Wanted Criminal
Force-sensitive: YES (Untrained)
Lightsaber: None
Specialty: For-Hire, psychometry (ability to read the memories of objects, including dead corpses)
Species: Kiffar-Human mix
About the species:
- The Kiffar were a species of Near-Humans from the planet Kiffu. About one in a hundred Kiffar had the ability to read the memories of inanimate objects—including formerly animate objects like corpses—by touch, an ability known as psychometry. It was not, however, normal for a Kiffar to be able to read the living. Visually, they were comparable to any Human except for their distinct facial markings. These markings, called qukuuf, applied as tattoos when young, were passed down through families on the mother's side, except for on those rare occasions where an individual's mother was not a Kiffar, in which case the father's markings were taken on.
- Homeworld: Kiffu
- Language: Basic
- Extra Details: One in one hundred possessed psychometry, force-sensitive, facial tattoos
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Chestnut brown with blonde highlights
Eyes: Colorless
Skin: Tanned
Height: 5 foot 6
Extra Details:
Master of disguise; constantly changing outfits including hair and eye color through use of costumes and technology.
BIO:
Kanara is a Kiffar-Human mix, whom was abandoned by her mother as an infant. She spent most of her upbringing bouncing from orphanage to orphanage. The instability caused her to develop into a child troublemaker and later into a delinquent. By her late teens, Kanara was mostly homeless and poor, and lived off of the streets of the Coruscant underworld. She predominantly grew into a lifestyle of general crime, adhering to the many criminal ways of Slum District G17 (area of the underworld that contained bars, cabarets, gang hangouts, gun market, etc.). Despite her upbringing, Kanara was extremely intelligent, cunning, and charming, and used these characteristics to build a reputation for herself as a legitimate criminal. Known mostly for her skills in thievery, Kanara became a wealthy and prominent figure in the Coruscant underworld and became a popular choice For-Hire. By her 20s, Kanara had become known as
Skyhawk – and after stealing extreme valuables and for her involvement in organized crime, earned her name onto a Most Wanted list.
Having little knowledge of her roots other than the facial tattoos her mother left her, Kanara discovered her Kiffar ancestry at a young age. She realized she was highly force-sensitive, and was able to see and feel memories and emotions from inanimate objects. Living mostly on her own, Kanara taught herself the unique ways of psychometry, without the use of formal training. This ability became a key aspect in her life as well as her criminal career – giving her the upper hand in many facets of the underworld.
Kanara is extremely difficult to catch, as she is mainly untraceable due to her disconnected upbringing. Because she has no family, little to no friends, and no legitimate legal identity, she is known mostly as a virtual ghost to society. She is a barely recognizable face among a city containing millions of individuals. Those who tracked her knew simply that she was female, near-human, and that she was referred to as “Skyhawk”. But, to Kanara's dismay, she was accidentally captured on a private security camera, one which she failed to disconnect on a job. Unfortunately, in the photograph, Skyhawk's face is covered from the eyes down, and she is hooded. The photo is also of poor quality, but did manage to identify part of her forehead tattoo. Although her head was mostly covered by a big hood, the two circles above her eyebrows were foggily captured on the image, along with her distinct ghostly white irises.
Plot Idea(s):
Now that local law enforcement has some facial characteristics to identify her with, they begin a manhunt to catch the most-wanted thief. Perhaps they enlist in the help of other organizations, investigators or hunters to track her down.

The Club Dancer
Name: Aeza'veka
Organization: Club LUSH
Force-sensitive: YES (Potentially)
Lightsaber: None
Specialty: Exceptional singer and dancer
Species: Twi'lek
About the species:
Twi'leks, sometimes referred to disparagingly as "Tail-heads", were an omnivorous humanoid species originating from the planet Ryloth. They tended to eat cultivated molds, fungi, and rycrit meat. Their distinctive features included colorful skin, which varied in pigment from individual to individual, and a pair of shapely prehensile tentacles that grew from the base of their skulls. The tentacles, called "brain-tails", "lekku", "tchun-tchin", or "head-tails" were advanced organs used for communication and cognitive functions. Twi'leks possessed a fairly standard humanoid vocal structure and were capable of learning most alien languages; however, they usually preferred their native language of Ryl, which incorporated subtle movement of the lekku. When they wished, they could even communicate in complete secrecy using their versatile brain-tails. Twi'lek females were often used as slaves or dancers because of their beauty.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: None - two green lekkus
Eyes: Violet
Skin: Green
Height: 5 foot 8
Extra Details:
Often dressed scantily and/or in revealing dancing uniforms adorned in fake jewelry and accessories.
BIO:
Club LUSH is one of the most infamous underground super clubs buried in the ever-growing black market of Coruscant. Having now become a haven for illegal activity and unlawful negotiations, Club LUSH began attending to crooked customers from criminals to even corrupt politicians. Despite its flagrant reputation, it is deemed virtually untouchable; protected by its bound criminal ties and cemented fortunes. Many called it "
illegally legal", growing from a hole in the wall to a glorious empire.
Now, it employed dozens of artists of various talents, from your typical exotic pole dancers and club singers, to aerial artists and accomplished musical groups - there was entertainment to suit many tastes. Though, one particular entertainer, a young Twi'lek named Aeza (Ay-zah), had gained recent popularity among Club LUSH frequenters. She was was standard club singer, with incredible vocals and spellbinding and voluptuous movemenst. She as skilled with her voice as she was with her hips and her eyes - capable of rendering even the strongest of men completely smitten. Although locally acclaimed, she was not a free woman. Imprisoned to the owner of Club LUSH, a notorious drug lord known only by his street name
Grim after becoming indebted to him, she was not a star, but a slave.

The Unknown Species
Name: Zahirya
Organization: N/A
Force-sensitive: Potentially
Lightsaber: N/A
Specialty: Alien Species
Species: Unknown
About the species:
Zahirya is an alien female who's origin species is a mystery. Zahirya has all five of her senses exceptionally enhanced. She has the vision of a hawk, the smell of a wolf, and the hearing of a bat (including echolocation). She has nearly double the amount of taste buds as the average human, making her ultra sensitive to foods. She can also use her enhanced sense of taste and smell to identify proteins, minerals, and other materials. Similarly, Zahirya is capable of smelling pheromones on people, as well as other undetectable human scents and chemicals that allow her to interpret a person's feelings, intentions, and moods. Due to the unique design of her wings, legs, hands, and feet, she is an extraordinary climber, leaper, and glider. Her legs allow for increased agility and speed when in combat. Her heightened senses allow for incredible detail in her surroundings, giving her prime instinctively combatant abilities (she knows who's around her at all times and can sense people and animals from a mile away). Lastly, Zahirya possess superhuman intelligence.
APPEARANCE:
Hair: Blue and Purple
Eyes: Sclera blue and black
Skin: Purple and pink patterned
Height: 5 foot 4
Extra Details:
Although Zahirya is a unique original character, I did use Dren from the film Splice as inspiration and as a physical model for Zahirya's body. Zahirya will have the same collapsible wings, as well as the same tail, hand, legs and feet of the character Dren. However, I am open to modifying her body to accommodate other designs.
BIO:
Her species is virtually unknown to the universe - no one being able to identify exactly what planet she came for or exactly what species she truly is. Her entire existence is a total mystery. Not only is she an not human, even an alien, but she is an alien to aliens - a creature so foreign, no one even knows what to call her. Although she has knowledge in Basic, Zahirya has very little recollection of her origins. She suffers from severe amnesia, a condition believed to have been caused by a mixture physical head trauma and mental trauma. How she got to (insert planet) is unknown - though it is suspected that she may have been either transported there through universal smugglers.
Plot Idea(s):
Zahirya is a literal blank slate. She will be foreign to any city/ planet we set her in and would have little to no knowledge of how the world or even universe works around her. The roleplay would include a lot of teaching or even correcting, and could perhaps be rather humourous (think Thor when he first came to Earth - walking in the middle of the street). She would perhaps be transferred to a facility or program of some sort to help her reintegrate into mainstream society. She would be very naive of the human world - although an exceptionally fast learner. The plot and how to integrate her will heavily depend on which male character we pair her with.
I'm currently craving to have her attend some sort of high-status, formal gala or event of some sort. We could add in, also, that she is being hunted (for whatever reason). Which could add some drama/adventure to the play. Whatever the idea, I'm very open to it. Zahirya is a sort of blank slate and can fit into nearly any plot and with any pairing. Send me your ideas!
Name: ARTEMIS
Organization: Mercenary gang of all-female assailants
Force-sensitive: Some
Lightsaber: Not Applicable - all women use a range of weaponry, but none use a lightsaber
Specialty: Exceptional combatants, assassins and mercenaries
Species: Mixed Near-Humans
BIO:
Artemis are a group of all-female mercenaries who are known to terrorize the underworld of Coruscant. They live by a lawless code of ethics, bonded to the gang by their loyalty to one another. They are considered to be one of the most wanted gangs in Coruscant, and have warrants for their arrests throughout the galaxy. The bounties on their heads equate to over a million credits. Over the years, they have grown from only a handful of members to over 15 mercenaries. Police of Coruscant are unable to say for certain how many are in the gang, but know of 16 members credibly (see above). Despite their numbers, Artemis has been widely unstoppable. They are incredibly intelligent, manipulative, and masters of disguise, escape, and deception. Their headquarter(s) are still unknown. There is also little information on their true identities or their backstories in government files, so police have had a difficult time catching them. Based on the limited pattern officials have managed to piece together, Artemis looks as though they seek largely corrupt targets. They have committed all sorts of crimes from grand larceny, grand theft, bank robbery, black market weapons trafficking, assault, and even murder.
Plot Idea(s):
TBD
