HISTORY
Living in the Ashen Worlds of the Outer Rim, the people of Chiron were isolated and content. Oria, one of the many Force Sensitive-born Chironians, was taught minor skills by the teachers of her clan. When she heard tales of the Jedi and their exploits and adventures all across the galaxy, she was enthralled at the idea of becoming one. Her family, however, remained against the idea and insisted she continue and Force teachings on Chiron.
When she came of age, her natural horns having growing into lovely, looping crests, her clan came under attack by Klatoonian slavers. They wanted the Chironians not just for labor but their valuable horns as well. Oria, sadly, lost hers after the slavers cut them from her head.
Thankfully, fate intervened when the wandering Jedi Arron Starstrider had arrived and drove off the slavers. The clan was more than grateful for Starstrider's intervention, Oria especially fascinated. After offering to take her on as a padawan trainer, Oria's family had no choice but to allow her the freedom to leave Chiron. Many, including the elders of the clan, felt it was the Force working through its divine machinations to set her on this path.
After taking a few pieces of home with her, Oria left Chrion with her new master, eager too see the rest of the galaxy while expanding her talents and understanding of the Force.
Over the years, Oria and Starstrider traveled about the Outer Rim systems. When not dispensing justice and protecting the innocent, Oria's master taught her in the ways of the Force. From focusing her attention and meditation to wielding a lightsaber, the young Chironian understood the true extent of her gifts. Given her anatomy, Oria was better suited for a lightsaber pike, which she and Starstrider constructed together.
In time, Oria proved herself a capable jedi and compassionate warrior. Feeling he had no more to teach her, Arron Starstrider presented her with a final gift: four Beskar-made horseshoes that would help her in both combat and defense. She accepted them and, given the choice by her master, decided to go off on her own adventures to find her place in the galaxy. With final goodbyes, both master and student parted and hoped to eventually find each other again.
