Description:

Remi is a tall, graceful Twi'lek -- as most of the females of her species are. She carries herself with a confidence and power shared by those proficient in hand-to-hand combat, one hand always resting lightly on the hilt of one of the twin vibroblades strapped to her hips. Her lekku are long and shapely and usually she tucks one over her shoulder, always ensuring her main sword hand is free. She seems, for the most part, as stoic and serene as the Jedi Masters seek to be, but her eyes are full of passion and intensity.

Appearance:

Remi's skin is a vibrant shade of deep purple, a color offset by the icy light blue of her eyes. Her gaze is direct and unafraid, often openly studying whatever interests her. She often wears white lipstick that contrasts her dark skin and matches the white pattern dyed onto her lekku and one cheek -- a pattern that highlights a set of old burn scars that mar her otherwise smooth skin. The scars continue onto her shoulders and back as does the pattern, tracing their route with a care that does little to hide or conceal them, almost as if she was wearing them like a badge of honor.

Class/Skills/Attributes:

Remi grew up in the Jedi Order and recently achieved the rank of Padawan underneath the Jedi Master Seune Dawnwhisper. She is extremely proficient in all forms of hand-to-hand combat taught at the academy, but often struggles with any great feats that require Force powers beyond the ability to leap further and move faster. In fact, she has a real knack for being a bit of a clutz -- only her Force powers have saved many vases and other priceless artifacts from a fate shattered across many a floor. Her real shining ability lies in her natural talent to influence others using the Force; to those who know her, "persuasive" is usually a very appropriate descriptor. One of her favorite tricks is to use her species's graceful, supple nature to nearly hypnotize others, sometimes without truly meaning to.

Equipment/Apparel:

Remi carries a blue lightsaber as befits a Padawan as well as the usual Padawan clothes. She has a tendency to favor apparel that is tighter but certainly not more revealing than her Jedi outfit, mostly for ease of movement and to decrease the chances of her tripping over her own pants.

Starship(s):

Character:

Appearances in Fiction:

None, as of yet.

Personality:

Remi tries to be calm, composed, and stoic, as her Master encourages her to be. She strives to encompass the serenity and peaceful nature that the Order abides by... but often fails miserably. She carries with her the painful memories of her past and despite her teachers' best efforts refuses to let them go. Instead, she often forces herself to relive those memories and as such is prone to much more passionate and quick-tempered actions than other Jedi. She has a very strong sense of honor and morality; she is quick to take up sword in the interests of protecting those who are innocent or being oppressed. Because of her strong desire to aid others, she has always struggled with the Jedi's call towards patience and often is gently chided by her master for acting without thinking.

A Remi that feels passionately about something is a very difficult Remi to ignore indeed. From her subconscious use of the Force to persuade others to her viewpoint to her readiness to use her swords or lightsabers to ensure she is heard, it is more often than not that her opinions are made clear. Usually those opinions include the fair treatment of others and the pure evil nature of the Sith, but, regardless, she is not a Twi'lek who has trouble making her feelings known.

Relationships:

Any relationship with Remi is sure to be an interesting one. She is a very direct and open person yet at the same time she is very secretive and withdrawn about parts of herself. Despite her calm demeanor she often has trouble forming stable relationships -- throughout her years at the Academy, those closest to her have always been her teachers. Friendships formed with classmates tended to be fleeting, at best, and rarely very strong. Despite this, Remi is quick to take arms to protect those she feels are her comrades and tries to be honorable and fair in her dealings with others.

Beliefs:

Remi is very simple, as far as her beliefs go -- she believes in the Order, and what they stand for; she believes in the cruelty of the Sith and the necessity of the Republic's perseverance; she believes that she has a duty to protect those she is able to; she believes that the strong have a responsibility to those weaker than them.

Goals and Ambitions:

Remi is quick to share her goals and dreams with those who ask. She dreams of a world where there are no Sith and no war, a time of peace like the elders often speak of, and it is her goal to make it happen in any way she can. What is never spoken is the hidden desire inside of her, the one that not even she herself will admit to -- revenge. The Sith Empire took everything from her, and that is something she will never forgive or forget.

History:

The first thing Remi remembers is a doll -- obviously a hand-sewn one, with small, shiny pieces of metal tied onto it for eyes, nelf fur sewn onto it for hair -- laying in the mud as metal-lined soldiers' boots tramped past it. Strange, she mentions, in a semi-detached, off-hand voice, that she doesn't remember any sounds. Just silence and that doll trembling in the blood-spattered mud. No faces -- not of her parents, not of her siblings or loved ones -- just an endless parade of blackened, scarred helmets, each one peering at her as she cowered in the corner, every fiber of her being screaming out that she wasn't there, she didn't exist, she was no one, nothing.

It wasn't until much later, when the Jedi came, that her terror began to ebb into a dull ache of fear and loss in the center of her chest. It was easy for her to leave her past life behind when all she remembered was the Sith soldiers and the doll that she didn't even know belonged to her or not. When she was older, much older, the Jedi told her that the Sith had destroyed the entire colony along with a dozen others that had supported the Republic. The only reason she'd survived was because she'd been able to use the Force to persuade all others that she didn't actually exist.

Remi can't remember her name or even the name of the colony in which she lived; she has only that single memory, that stray remnant, of her former life -- so that's what she called herself: a remnant, and nothing more.
