Perail Staite
Ingénue Initiate
Perail Staite
Age: 19
Species: Human
Gender: Female
Height: 162cm
Weight: 52kg
Force Sensitive: Yes
Faction: The Foundation
DESCRIPTION
The girl looks at the world with eyes full of life and wonder, as if eager to soak in the sensation, always wanting more, striving to look beyond... There is something simultaneously intensely present and oddly ethereal about her.
She carries herself upright without stiffness, her movements free and unconstrained, her gait of a sensual, un-self-aware clumsiness. She looks and acts like she belongs and has a right to be where she is and does not hunker down even in the face of authority or adversity - and yet she has an air of being merely a guest wherever it is she finds herself.
PERSONALITY & BELIEFS
Perail is fundamentally a creature of passion more than of reason. She is a deeply empathetic and emotional person and makes decisions on the basis of feelings and intuition rather than calculation. She goes through life as though in a dream-like trance, hurled to and fro, without fear, but also without a purpose of her own.
She finds it difficult to hurt people, lie and cheat, not out of moral fortitude but because her empathy makes it difficult to bear others' pain. She has no feeling of civic duty and does not mind crime whose victims are not concrete, individual people, but governments and faceless corporations.
Influenced by her home-world's spiritual culture, she does not have a rationalist outlook on life. She loves life, and loves to collect experiences. She feels that everyone has their purpose, has their story, and in the grand scheme of things, everything will be alright. She flinches from pain, of course, but does not fundamentally object to it. Existence is still a fascinating and marvellous ride.
STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
+ Perail is a kind and empathetic person and highly attuned to the emotions of those around her. She finds it easy to connect to people, make them spill their thoughts and feelings, and feel accepted, and many creatures find her lively, carefree ways quite charming - even those who are not near-humans and for whom her physical beauty is meaningless.
+ Perail is quite fearless and has a deep-seated belief that things are somehow going to turn out alright.
- Perail is not good at making plans and being strategic, nor is she cunning and diplomatic. Charm is all she has to offer.
- Perail is, at this point in her development, not a leader, but a follower. Neither is she adept at detecting lies, and thus quite easy to mis-lead.
- Perail is not disciplined and studious in academic or technical subjects. Her education is very limited and she does not consider this to be a problem to be remedied. She deals with the world by doing things.
HISTORY
Perail was born on the Outer Rim world of Entralla. Her father worked in starport cargo handling, so she got to see ships up-close from a young age without ever being allowed to set foot on them, got to talk to the freighter crews on their shore leave, heard their stories - it was hardly a surprise, then, that the girl dreamt of taking to the stars.
However, her test results were insufficient to allow her entry to any corporate pilot training and her family had no money to send her to a flight school. Her best chance was to become a lesser crew member, and initially she trained as a flight attendant for passenger liners.
This career did not come to fruition, however, when a shortcut presented itself. A girl friend's brother, many years her senior, proved to be very enterprising, having somehow secured a rust bucket of a freighter with friends, and determined to get into the cargo - read, smuggling - business. Perail was smitten with him and taken along for the ride.
Perail had no problem with that sort of activity, or with ferrying passengers who wanted to remain off the manifests of the lines. Robbing said passengers, however, crossed a line for her, much to her boyfriend's disapproval, who summarily dumped her where they were - on Son-tuul, of all places.
Here, Perail has been stuck for just over half a year, having secured a livelihood as a barmaid in a cantina, but otherwise drifting without perspective; at times still processing the shock of the events, at others simply waiting for what life had in store for her, because she was sure there was something.
