NAME: Mia Monroe
FACTION: None
RANK: Master
SPECIES: Human
GENDER: Female
HEIGHT: Tall
BUILD: Athletic
EYES: Grey
HAIR: Light Brown
SKIN: pale
DISTIGUISHING FEATURES: her left hand is prosthetic
FORCE SENSITIVE: Yes
Strengths:
Knowledge is Power - Mia was used as a living flash drive for Velok’s memories upon his death at Yavin IV. She carries his life memories and the knowledge the sith had gathered in his lifetime.
Pain is Nothing - extended, habitual use of crucitorn means Mia does not feel pain.
Fearless in Battle - She has already died once. She has been mentally tortured by the sith, she has been physically tortured by the sith. The sith murdered thousands of those she once considered her people. What else could she possibly have left to be afraid of?
Weaknesses:
Haunted - Her past is riddled with turmoil and terror, ghosts of her past linger with her always, looming over her like a great shadow. They manifest themselves at their worst when she sleeps, or when she’s nothing to occupy her mind.
Afraid of Life - When it boils down to it, when life gets on top of her and the emotional turmoil is too great, Mia does not turn to friends, she runs. Courtesy of her lover, she has the perfect ship to slip off the radar, often for months at a time.
An Open Book - Mia can take hits like a tank, but she has nothing in the way of mental defences. She knows when she is being poked at, at the least and she’ll find you to put you down if you don’t do it first.
SHIP: Liberty’s Veil
BIOGRAPHY:
Adopted - Mia was a street rat on Corellia, picked up by a Mandalorian by the name Jaxx Monroe who took a liking to her survival instincts. He raised her as a bounty and treasure hunter, but died when she reach her mid twenties. She carried on with the work he taught her to do.
Of all the Swords - One said treasure hunt, brought he into the cross hairs of Moridin, a sith dreadlord, later to become Emperor of the sith and the Emperor who would bring war to the Mandalorian’s. She had retrieved his sword from an old tomb, her unknown force sensitivity alerting him to it being handled. He came, he took and he left a message of war to be taken back to her people. She pursued him.
The First Fall - Her pursuit and fight against Moridin was pointless, she’d neither the skill nor the power to beat him, but ego meant she could not simply leave it be. He and defeated her and gave her as a plaything to a sith by the name of Daxton Bane. He kept her like a pet, played with her mind and left her damaged, unable to trust and unwilling to let people touch her.
The War and Expansion - Rescued by brothers, Mia returned home to fight in the war against the sith, only when Moridin was overthrown and Ashin Varanin took his place was there peace a truce set in place by Mandalorian the Bear. the Mandalorians pushed their boundaries further west and Mia climbed through the ranks reaching Field Marshall after Bear had retired, leaving Mandalore the Idiot in charge.
You’re in my chair - After leading forces in the Battle of Roche, Mia’s patience with the current Mandalore wore thin, she confronted the woman who bowed down quicker than anyone could say dikut. Encouraged and supported by Verz Horak and many others, Mia became Mand’alor the Liberator and vowed to free them from oppression of the sith. The war restarted, and the clans grew.
These Aren’t My Memories - Driving imperial forces from yet another planet, Mia encountered Velok, a powerful sith whipid. With Emberli’s help, Velok was ‘killed’ or at least, his body destroyed. He left a package for the nearest force sensitive, a back up, ‘just-in-case’. Reverse Drain Knowledge put his memories into Mia’s brain. The sheer weight of it dragging her into a coma for several weeks while her psych did what it could to organise and box it all up, During this time Keldabe was nuked by the Death Watch. Thousands dies while she lay helpless. When she woke, she put the knowledge to good use, launching attacks against the sith and furthering the Mandalorian’s reach and seeking vengence for those who had suffered.
Unexpected Affection - An ally of the mandalorians, ever present and helpful by the name of Connory, or as most knew him,The Bard of the Hyperlanes assisted Mia in a mining expedition. Or rather, she helped him. Alone and unguarded, close encounters in tight tunnels and low gravity. Mia confessed her suffering, and Connory confessed his true identity. Deep in the heart of an asteroid, bathed in purple light Mia forgot her troubles, content and comfortable in his company. Rel Connory seized his opportunity and would be the only man that ever survived such a bold move, let alone repeatedly in the future.
Master of Mind - Velok was back. The rumours of his return rippled on the force and with it loomed the threat that he might just destroy everything in Mandalorians territories in order the tie off loose ends. Mia was a loose end, a danger to her people, staying as Mand’alor would bring nothing but suffering to those who had already suffered enough. Rel convinced her to run, built he a ship and whisked her away. She left the title behind and with Rel’s help began to prepare herself, to learn to use the force she so desperately wanted to avoid. Access to Velok’s knowledge allowed her to learn enough to fight him if he ever caught up with her.
Conflict of Interest - Velok died at the hands of a Jedi, his soul bound and cast into a blackhole, or so the tale went. Safe, Mia came out of hiding, the Sith Empire had collapsed but the mandalorians, so eager now they had the taste for war turned their eyes to the core, to old allies. As Senator for Eshan, Rel’s allegiances lay with the republic. They kept their relations secret, each returning home to fight for their own people.
The Second Fall - Still intent on eradicating sith, while the mandalorians danced around the Republic, Mia struggled to find her place among them again and turned her interests instead to whispers of survivors. A name brought to her on the wind sent her out hunting. Ego failed her and once again she found herself in the clutches of the sith, one by the name Nemene Talith. Nemene introduced her to a whole new level of pain, she took her hands, her eye and gave her a transfusion packed with devonarion blood poison. When Ordo came to rescue her she was little more than a bloody mess.
Terror of Love - Her torture had a far more profound effect on Rel than it did her. She learned to live with the pain and he helped her to overcome it entirely developing a serum to fight the poisoning while the drifted off the radar once more. But the greatest damage was not on the surface. Mia simply wanted to break things,hiding was no longer helping her and breaking things kept her busy. Rel accompanied her because that’s what she wanted. Mia loved him, she told him as much moments before he stepped out into a barrage of fire, intent on getting himself killed. He might have succeeded, had she not saved him.
Miri Farms - With the rise of the One Sith and a war with the Republic, Mia found something to focus upon that did not in the line of fire. The playing field required levelling, Sith were fast overcoming their anti-force measures, and though now a master of the force herself, she was, first and foremost a mandalorian. With Myrkr under mandalorian control and with it a whole host of ysalamir on its surface, Mia created Miri farms, developing defenses for use in the field.
The Final Fall - War brought her to the front lines on Coruscant, a desperate bid to take back the core by those opposed to the One Sith’s ruling. Ordo became possessed by the Dark Lord, and a desperate attempt to reach him and bring him back brought Mia face to face with a Sith Lord between her and the throne room. Blinded by rage Mia fought foolishly, missing the warning for the amphistaff that struck her on the neck. Death took her body, but not her soul.
Rebirth - Torn between worlds, Mia drifted watching helplessly as her brother went from bad to worse. She sought another body, that of a clone in a facility owned by Jared Ovmar. With his permission, she was allowed to keep it and sought at Rel Connory, only to find he had dropped off the radar. Lost and confused in herself, she returned to her labs, plunging herself into her work, developing a breed of war hound. The first of her creation she took as her own, and named him shadow, though he was to later die in battle. Word reached her of Rel’s resurface.
Reunion - She sought him out on Eshan, posing as a representative for Miri Farms. In the event of her death it’d been left to him, but he wanted nothing to do with it. Still, he agreed to talk with her alone and her unveiling was met with passion, his confessions of going under cover for the sith with violence. They parted ways again, Mia hoping to find her path again.
Drifter - Uncertainty in herself an uncertainty is what the Mandalorian’s had become left Mia drifting without purpose. Was she Dar’manda? Or were her views simply different to that which had become of those she had once called her people. Beyond this, there was a nothe reason for her reluctance to step back into the fray. Morichro kept the unborn child from developing further. She was not ready, nor would he be.
Katlaydr - Mia kept an eye on the Mandalorians, a new leader rose from the ranks to take control and declared war on all sith and on the Republic. Mia could not resist the call to arms, named as Katlaydr she fought against the republic, thought it was a pitiful fight. The republic collapsed, the Mand’alor went MIA and power fell to the Council.
The Burning of Mandalore - Perhaps it was curiosity to see if she could. Perhaps it was the fact that the clans were making one bed decision after another and her people were beginning to stagnate, or perhaps it was that the darkness she had kept at bay for so long was beginning to take control. Maybe she really was a sith. A wolf in a sheeps clothing. She could give you a hundred different reasons for approaching Ijaat Meerel. None of them would make sense, but to her it felt right. Even as the core shook and she felt the lives snuffed out in the force, it was right. They were burning out the decay.
To be continued - Ijaat confessed his sins and died. Mia disappeared without a witch hunt. Morichro was taking its toll. She’d have to find him soon.
