Biography[]
Background[]
Original born on an unknown planet or system, Sofaia didn’t quite observe a normal child hood. The Daughter of slaves, she found herself badly punished at a young age for her wild and adventurous nature. However, at the age of three, she became too much for her family and was sold in order to pay for her parent’s freedom. Though she was told she was going on vacation, she quickly realized what had happened, and harbors deep hatred and anger for her parents to this day.
After being sold and traded back and forth upon various worlds, Sofaia quickly learned to be quiet and her wild nature was subdued to the point of non-existence. By the age of 10, she no more than a mindless slave, unsure what her own name was still, or if she consider herself happy or sad about anything. Indifferent to the world, she never noticed that the transport ship she was on had crash landed on some strange and remote planet, one called Tynna. The ship landed fairly roughly, leaving little survivors onboard. Of those who survived, Sofaia and a few crew members, who immediately abandoned the ship in favor of a rescue ship that came a few days later.
Jostled and confused about what had just happened, Sofaia was relatively unharmed by the crash, and wandered from the debris once her original captors abandoned her. After almost a day of wandering around in pouring rain, she found the ruins of an old building which had been covered with moss and vines, and wandered in for protection from the rain. It was a temple like structure that had been in disrepair, due likely to a battle that ensued with in at one point. Various skeletal remains lined the ground and were noticeable through out the building, each of them in what appeared to be traditional Jedi robes and garments. Sofaia found haven with in the building and began living with in it.
It would not be until almost 16 years later, when she would finally meet other person again. Though this time, it was that of a Jedi, who had discovered the remains of a Jedi temple looking for anything of value to take back to Jedi. With in the temple, he found Sofaia, who looked ragged and wild like an animal with her tattered clothing and uninterested expression. Though at this point, Sofaia was very weak, having very little to eat for the last few yaers, and having endured the constant cold and rain storm outside the last few weeks. She immediately passed out and later awoke in the medical bay of a more modern Jedi Temple.
After resting up for a week or so, she recovered her ability to communicate once again, but seemed reclusive about everyone and anyone near her, ignoring them and even going so far as to push them away in order to be left along. But in some strange sense, she felt at home around so many people, and when she was finally given the okay to leave the medical bay and leave the Jedi Temple, she seemed uninterested in leaving. After hearing the only way to stay is to be a Jedi, she announced that she would become one, if just to stay around people for a little while longer.
Family[]
At this point in time, there is no Family within Sofaia’s life.
Personality[]
Sofaia is initially distant with everyone, to the point of physically threatening them to stay away from her. She find little people to trust in, especially that of older people, and distrusts every piece of knowledge or information given to her unless proven on a practical level. Though not wild or fierce, she can be quick the point with her words, and often does not care who she offends or who she insults in the process. This however is not true with people who are stronger than her, or that she recognizes as being stronger, as she knows enough to test or tempt those stronger than her, for fear of getting punished or hurt in the process. To almost a simple point, Sofaia hates people and would prefer nothing more than to be ignored by all of them, and left alone to herself, though oddly finds herself drawn to wanting to be around people.
Sofaia has no set of rules or guidelines for how she operates or gets work done, which ever way is quickest and will cause the least amount of work. This can be both good and bad, as she takes an “ends justify the means” mentality when it comes to just about anything. This means she’ll sacrifice the lives of others in order to meet her goals if given to her. She finds comfort in protecting others though, and takes special care to protect those who she thinks need protecting, and the cost of the mission even if it calls for it. Though she is smart enough to weigh the odds if necessary, make the decision to kill a few to save a thousand if necessary.
Physical Appearance []
Though she does not consider herself pretty, Sofaia is probably not. She appears tomboyish, as she keeps her dirty blonde hair quite short in a bob style hair cut. She carries an odd genetic trait of Heterochromic, this causes her right eye to appear Blue, while left eye appears green. She is not overly busty, but enough to have some definition at a B size bust. She is slim, but slightly toned in particular parts in her body, with a fair and pale complexion. She generally does looks pretty, though she does not show it.
She dresses in standard common style clothing. She, however, makes a point of wear dresses or skirts, and is rarely seen in shorts or pants of any kind. Her clothing is mixtures of whites and blues, with minimal designs or accessories. There is often a hint of lace embedded with in her clothing.
Though rough on the outside, Sofaia moves rather feminine, and tends to move in a calculated fashion, counting her steps and always taking the same length of strides when she walks. Once in a position, she rarely changes her posture or position unless necessary. Her movement, though somewhat rough, is often fluid in nature, and move lends itself nicely to dance if she were to dance.
She has a habit though, of twirling objects with in her hands. This stems from often only having a pipe as a toy while a slave, so she got fairly skilled and spinning objects around her fingers and hands, to the point that she can do so with out prompting or noticing many time. This has become a problem in the past, as she would spin her Lightsaber between her fingers when bored. This was until she placed a safety panel over the activator of her light saber in order to stop it from randomly turning on while spinning between her fingers.
Combat Style[]
Sofaia practices an Combat style akin to Form V, Shien. In this form, Sofaia incorporates a habit of hers of spinning the blade in her fingers while fighting. This is seen when parrying blaster shots, as she spins the blade in front of her to block, instead of blocking out right. She also tends to spin the blade so that sometimes it’s a traditional grip, and other times a backwards grip, with the blade running the length of her arm, utilizing an unexpected grip to catch her enemies by surprise. She chooses to defend primarily, parrying and blocking attacks, while pushing them away and attempting to open up holes in enemies defenses.
Sofaia's Lightsaber
Lightsaber []
Though not necessarily unique, Sofaia carries a fairly normal lightsaber. This is due to her habit combat style of switching her sword from a traditional grip, to a backwards grip on the fly in a fight. Because of her untraditional combat style, the hilt’s length is almost slightly longer to accommodate for Sofaia’s ability to spin the blade around her fingers and hand, making it easier to switch grips. The emitter has a cone like funnel along the side, so that the part of the blade that rests upon the back of her arm when held backwards does not burn her. The hilt is also rather stylized and smooth, leaving it to be well balanced as a result. The blade’s color Green.
