Strengths And Weaknesses
- Strengths:
Eyesight; Kära's eyesight far surpasses that of most species' due to her Umbaran heritage, allowing her to see in vary degrees of light, darkness and UV, even penetrating visual hindrances such as fog and synthetic products
- Commander; Kära has a way of winning people over, and bringing them to her cause - whatever it might be. While she has remained in the shadows for a great many years now, living a more humble life than those of her Empire days, should the need arise she could return to the role of leader with ease
- Mentalist; Kära is strong of mind, having built up a framework of solid defences to keep people from entering, and is well versed in using such traits against others to benefit herself, specifically to subjugate others to her will
- Telepathy; Kära is naturally gifted with the art of Telepathy, having used it from a very young age and being more susceptible towards it due to her Umbaran heritage and upbringing
- Force Manipulation; Kära is naturally gifted in the art of Manipulation through the Force due to her Umbaran heritage and upbringing, and is used in conjunction with the aforementioned Telepathy
- Stealth; Kära is a firm user of stealth-based techniques, constantly remaining 'in the shadows' and manipulating situations rather than playing a visible role in their outcome
- Agility; Kära is slender and light of frame, allowing her to be far more agile and swift of foot than others within her age-range, aiding in her affinity towards stealth-based techniques
- Resistance; Kära has built up a natural resistance to all well known and commonly used poisons following the tutelage of Daxton Bane in her earlier years
- Mother's Wrath; Kära is now a mother, and she would do anything to keep her children safe. While she avoids the use of the darkside since her redemption, any who might do them harm would face the full might of this woman
- Established Alchemist; Kära has been training as a metallurgist for most of her life, and has made a name for herself within the circle of alchemists. Barely a day goes by when she isn't in her workshop toiling over the forge
- Queen of Midvinter; While she has lost her support network of old, being that they were Sith and she no longer walks among them, Kära does have the might of the Valkyri at her back should the need arise
[*]Weaknesses:
- Hypersensitive Eyesight; Kära's heritage is both a blessing and a burden, her sensitive eyesight leading her to suffer should she be exposed to sudden blinding lights in an almost photosensitive epileptic manner
- Lacking Allies; Once upon a time Kära relied entirely on her contacts for support, given her lack of physical prowess, yet since her redemption she has lost most of her network and strength
- A Mother; Kära always prided herself on being untouchable, but since the birth of her children she has become extremely vulnerable to outside interference... While some may not be able to get to her directly, her children are another matter all together
- Tiny Woman; Kära is ridiculously small, even by human standards; she is dwarfed by the people she governs, lacks the inherent strength they have, and could be very easily snapped in half if one of them tried
- Minimalist; Kära has always had a hard time holding onto things, preferring to keep her belongings as minimal as possible. As a result she can often be seen as unprepared, sometimes lacking the tools required to get the job done
- No Warrior; As it has always been with Kära, her strengths lie in the Force and not where lightsaber or blaster are concerned; while her time in the Mirrorverse has given her a little extra knowledge with regards to both, she is woefully inept compared to most Force users
- Somewhat Paranoid; While in no way as bad as it was in her youth, Kära still remains a rather paranoid individual at heart. Her upbringing on Umbara, paired with the unpredictable nature of the Galaxy and those within it, leave her somewhat withdrawn and untrusting toward most

Pre-Roleplay History
Kära was born the younger child of an Umbaran and a Human, upon the planet of Umbara, a world constantly cast in darkness. Before her birth, her parents were forced to part, and Demia, Kära's mother, immediately found a fellow Umbaran. While not her real Father, Kära was raised to view him as such. He already had a daughter, who Kära likewise was raised to believe was her sister. The family were moderately high up in the caste system, but nowhere near the level by which they would be eligible to leave their shadow-lands in search of somewhere brighter. When she was only three her older, and only, sibling "Zarathustra" disappeared from their home and Umbara in general.
Distraught over the loss of their daughter, and harassed by members of their society over the absence of a child deemed "unsuitable to be allowed off the planet", or in simple terms "too low on the ladder to ever make it", the family fell into decline. Kära's Step-Father lost what little honour he still retained, spending prolonged lengths of time away from the family and, during the brief moments he was home, partaking in acts of violence against his wife. Kära, presumably too young to understand, watched from the sidelines each time this happened, and as her years increased so too did her understanding. They slipped further and further down the castes, losing all power and respect their family had earned over many generations.
One evening, when Kära was only six, her mother came to her and took her into her arms. "Sweet child" the Umbaran said, completely out of her usual nature, "This world is cruel, the Galaxy crueler, and so few survive its horrors." As she spoke the woman took up a vial and held it in her free hand. "And I won't lose another child to the chaos." At this point her mother had leaned in and whispered "I will save you from all heartache, all pain, before it begins..." And slipped the top off the vial. A moment later the door was thrown open. Luckily for Kära her wayward step-Father put a sudden end to her mother's idea of 'redemption', earning her another beating, yet even so the words and actions of both parents began to play on her mind. Cruel... The little girl would think, often, as she watched the world around her, until she began to see it for herself. Suddenly only one thing was on the little girl's mind. Zara.
How she managed it Kära didn't know, but she realised how small a child of her age really was. Slipping onboard a freighter which transported goods between worlds the little girl escaped Umbara in search of her sister, all the while she became slightly more unpredictable in her nature while her mother's words continued to ring at the back of her mind. Not the beatings she had bore witness to, or the attempt on her life by her mother, but the words. Truth be told, she seemed utterly unphased by the physical actions. She made it to Maramere where her connection with Zarathustra seemed stronger, yet she was at a loss. Such a small person could not survive long alone, in a place they were foreign to. She had no money, or worldly possessions, and her only companions were an insistent little hound and the presence of what she described to be a "flowing river"; she couldn't see it, touch it, sense it in any way but through feeling it's ever-present force.
