Between her excitable nature and unorthodox sense of style and humor, Eilen generally gives off an energetic and whimsical impression. At first sight, most people might not expect that her past experience includes smuggling, sabotage, and running from the law. Up front, her life is rife with weird moments and unique flavor, but she is no stranger to more serious matters or criminal activity, and it frustrates her to be treated as innocent, inexperienced, or dependent.

The responsibility Eilen once held to the galaxy as an acolyte in the Force, and to the clan she once served, proved more than she could handle as conflicts and consequences repeatedly churned. Now disconnected from the Force, she's chosen to go off on her own and reduce the scope of her life to more personal intent. The less she feels needed for any greater purpose, the more she can focus on living and thinking for herself. Some might call it willful ignorance, but to her, it's finally making her own decisions. Though, her conscience may still struggle to reject a call to action when she hears it.

Eilen Ru'tyari is a lateral thinker, and when she encounters problems or dilemmas, she is very good at improvising and coming up with alternative solutions. This allows Eilen Ru'tyari to find ways out of situations others might give up on. While these solutions are often not so obvious to others, Eilen Ru'tyari can typically explain and lead others through her plan...as long as they are patient and willing enough to trust her outside thinking.

From racing at high speed to climbing buildings for freerunning, Eilen enjoys the exciting moments in life. Sure, she appreciates a little silence and relaxation in-between, but traveling to new places, facing interesting challenges, indulging in a little chaos, or even just finding fun ways to stay physically active - the blood-pumping thrill of being alive makes everything else worthwhile. Though, sometimes Eilen can get a little carried away in the moment and land in trouble when the excitement takes over her better judgement.

Though she prefers to avoid a real fight, Eilen will risk a more cunning approach to dangerous situations. Her ideal path to victory is to disable, destroy, or otherwise lock down an enemy's resources, usually accomplished with her skills as a demolitionist, slicer, and ship mechanic. Of course, these options take time and often demand stealth or deception. If she isn't careful, plenty can go wrong before the job is complete.

Combat is not in Eilen's range of expertise. Though she can readily handle explosives and manage decent target practice with a handgun, her typical approach to a fight is to either run or hide. If forced into a confrontation, her best hope is usually to outmaneuver and outsmart the opposition, using her environment and any available tools to her advantage.

Vehicles, however, are quite the exception. In the pilot's seat, Eilen is more than confident in her ability to take on dangerous adversaries - sometimes too confident.
