"I was born in Corellia and was raised by my father, Nyamn Tess.
Yes, his first dad-joke was to name me after him
despite me being a girl.
I never knew my mother,
she died when I was still very little
and my father didn't like talking too much about her.
He still misses her, he always will."
Physical Composition.
Nyamn is a slightly tall young woman, standing at around 1,71 meters with a slender physique, weighting in at around 125lbs. She enjoyed the energy and speed of her body since day one: jumping, climbing, running, crawling. The girl has an amazing mobility and talent for...well, being sneaky and hard to catch. She has long limbs with well developed muscle, even if strength is not her forte. Nyamn has a strong core and, most often than not, keeps a fairly decent posture, gaining herself some good balance.
Taking after her mother, Nyamn has chestnut brown hair. It is slightly wavy and falls just some inches below her shoulders. Truth is, it is as common to see it hanging past her shoulders as it is being held up in braids, buns or ponytails. She will always go with what feels most comfortable depending the situation.
Nyamn has quite characteristic facial features, with big eyes, small but plump lips and quite a unique facial structure. The physiognomy of her face is very feminine even if more so in a sharper, slightly angular fashion. The most striking feature are surely her eyes. Surrounded by thick layers of dark-brown lashes, her bluish-greenish eyes seem to have not yet decided whether they want to be blue or green.

"Life started off quite averagely. I went to school, made friends,
then returned home and helped Dad at work.
He was a hypernautics specialist, or like other people like to call it: a mechanic. I grew up among spaceships and pilots and like every proper Corellian, I loved it.
I learned a lot during that time, about spaceships and piloting mostly.
I'll never forget that afternoon, I was helping dad fix a speeder when the most horrible engine you can possibly imagine pierced my ears. We turned around and there it was: the most battered freighter I had ever seen in my life. That thing belonged in a museum.
But to sum things up, everything changed for me the day an old, grumpy Cathar landed on our bay."

Mentors:
Zaro ~ Cathar,first mentor.
"His name was Zaro and even while being hunched by age, I would have sworn he was the tallest, furriest alien in the galaxy. He approached my father with slow, heavy steps. I couldn't rip my immensely curious and slightly terrified eyes off of him. He said he had had some serious troubles while on a journey, he had lost all and barely made it out on that flying broken coffee machine.
My father was an easy soul to touch, so was I. So my father offered him a place to stay with us, even if I couldn't quite imagine how we would fit this gigantic creature in our humble abode. I couldn't help but feel curious about him. I mean, more so than I had ever felt about any other thing. It was like a strange feeling trying to convince me to find out more. It would take us some time to realize why that was.
After months of living with Zaro -and after we had overcome our initial grumpy grandpa vs pestering brat war- I took quite a liking to the old man. He told me the most interesting stories and made me play the most absurd of games: like trying to lift a leaf with my mind...Crazy.
At least that's what I thought until the day that leaf took flight..."
Personality Description
Nyamn has always been a courageous girl, with a big heart and a mind to match it. She was cunning, fast and sociable since the day she could stand on her own and always had an unstoppable curiosity for virtually anything. As a child she was restless and energetic and it was necessary to keep her mind occupied with something or face the consequences of her boredom. However, as she grew up she became more patient and gained a powerful stability inside of her own mind.
Typically happy, with a smile on her face and an easy laugh she wouldn't call herself an optimist but recognizes that it takes quite a lot to get her off her radiant mood. Truth is, she became a calm and collected, yet very approachable young woman. She is very empathetic and feels better when in company.
Of course, she knows better than to trust anyone and that good friendships rarely come quickly. Gaining her trust is not so easily achieved, but still as long as she doesn't feel wronged or offended she treats everyone in the same manner: kindly.
Brave and with the ability to become a fierce mess, Nyamn is very protective over those she loves or considers friends. Loyal to death, hard-working and with a resourceful mind, she is generally an excellent person to have around.
However, no one is perfect. Nyamn can prove to be quite hard-headed at times and though she has a brilliant intelligence, sometimes her heart speaks louder (...and faster) than her mind. She is honest to the bones, and though she always makes an effort to deliver her opinions as kindly as possible, she does not always succeed.
Alignment: Neutral Good.
"So now we are nearing the end of my story. I had always felt different, though I never knew why. That day, the day Zaro's game stopped being just a game, I discovered the Force. Of course, I knew what it was, I had heard of it but it had never crossed my mind that all those strange feelings and pulls I had felt had been because of it.
Most importantly, I discovered that the old lion was, in fact, a retired Jedi Knight.He told me his story, how he was slowly losing his connection to the Force. And how he believed the last of his time with it was meant to be used helping me.
Zaro taught me everything he could in the time we had. He taught me how to wield the gift that was given to me and how to always treat it with the respect it deserved and demanded. He also taught me how to protect myself, how to wield weapons I had only heard of in stories. In my sixteenth birthday he switched our training blades for actual sabers. I had never been so scared in my life.
I will forever be in debt with that man. He helped me find my purpose and my balance. He and my father were the two beacons of Light in my life. But as I had told you before, Zaro was an old, grumpy man. And old, grumpy men must become one with the Force someday..."
