Knight Blade Ta'var

Journeyman 4, Journeyman tier, Clan Scholae Palatinae
Female Zeltron, Sith, Marauder
Height: 1.73 m / 5'8" - Weight: 66.0 kg / 146 lbs
Age: 26 years - Right Handed
Physical Description

A stylish blue, longer pixie cut frames an average (for a Zeltron) pink face with crystal blue eyes. Her body, though unmistakably feminine, is well toned and never shows more than fading scars, a result of frequent Bacta treatment. A large wardrobe mostly contains form-fitting pieces in a rainbow's worth of colors, as well as neutral clothes to mix and match. Her party wardrobe is even larger and satisfies all tastes. ALL of them.

Blind Optimist (General Aspect)

Every legendary story seems to have at least one charming and optimistic character. If that's the case, then it only makes sense that Blade Ta'var has decided to be that person. After all, if everyone is too busy whining and groaning about the negatives, how will anyone ever reach the positive? True, Blade Ta'var's constant belief that things will get better can be terribly grating, especially to pessimists or those just level-headed enough to realize when things truly are going downhill, but Blade Ta'var's constant positive outlook can serve to sometimes spur others to action when it feels like the world just wants them to lay down and die.

Not Your Average Zeltron (General Aspect)

What happens to a Zeltron raised by Humans? They come out somewhere in-between. A Zeltron at heart she can be very playful and passionate, but this is tempered by her cultural upbringing as a Human and more importantly as a Warrior (Father) and Spy (Mother). Discipline isn’t very common for a Zeltron but she is determined to eliminate her weaknesses and improve her abilities. You can't always have fun. This was drilled into her and continues to be a part of her life. Her fellow Zeltrons find this odd and as such she can be a bit of a oddball on Zeltros. The rest of the universe still views her as hedonistic, causing non-Zeltrons to group her with the rest of her kind. The Zeltrons would disagree but thankfully they know how to deal with the odd one out in a party.

The Best Me (Personality Aspect)

Blade Ta’var is ambitious and loves self-improvement. This extends to whatever pursuits she undertakes, if she finds them worthy of her time. As a result, if she is passionate about a subject, she does not require coaxing to take her development or improvement seriously, but does need to be reminded to relax every once in while. It can turn into a single-minded devotion that blocks out the world around her.

Justice At Any Cost (Personality Aspect)

Blade has a strong sense of justice that can easily become revenge. It can be a powerful motivator but it can be taken too far. Sometimes she can get swept away in her emotions and commit harsh judgements without fully thinking it through. The positive is that she can easily carry out what must be done but it comes at the cost of empathy. Her past work with the Church of the Force as a spy gives her plenty of reasons to subscribe to this mantra.

Dead Sprint (Combat Aspect)

When Blade Ta'var gets in trouble, she finds no fault in bravely turning tail and getting the hell out of dodge. Obviously, this means that she tends to survive even the most deadly encounters... but the same can't always be said for her compatriots. This fact hasn't exactly made her the most popular among her peers, but hey, at least Blade Ta'var isn't dead yet.

Warrior with a Twist (Combat Aspect)

Blade Ta'var is an honorable warrior that believes true strength comes from utilizing both the body and mind in battle. She will employ both her martial skills and more subtle tactics, such as mind games and pheromone manipulation, both in and out of combat. As a Zeltron, Blade Ta'var has mastered her inborn skills of molding the thoughts and feelings of others with her pheromones. This allows Blade Ta'var to utilize devious, less violent means to meet her goals before she resorts to a physical fight. While she does not find anything wrong in using her pheromones in battle, her reputation has grown slowly and many duelists question the validity of her victories, making some wary and others skeptical of her prowess.
