Eternal Father
Name: Saskia Tas-nekhtLoyalties: Darth Carnifex & the Sith Order
Role: Knightly Protege
Development Threads: N/A
Age: 27
Species: Exargan
Appearance: For all intents and purposes Saskia has the appearance of the average Human female in her late twenties coupled with an athletic and arousing physique, but these features had only developed in the last fourteen years. Exargan are born genderless, their genders only being fully defined once they reach the age of thirteen. Saskia still retains much of her androgynous features even though her more feminine physical aspects have reached full development. Her black hair is kept relatively short with the left side shaven and the central mass combed over to the right in a punkish manner, and she's even known to dye the tips of her hair a deep red. Her skin is a fair Caucasian accented by a triangular Sith tattoo centered square on her forehead, and Sith scripture inked on her right flank.
Her clothes are exotic and alluring. Crafted from the most exquisite textiles and made to hug her form, they are derived from traditional Sith apparel with her own personal flair interwoven into the design. Sections of the tunic were left out to expose her toned stomach, the cleft between her breasts, and the space underneath each arm. Her clothes could be modified with additional armor plating if necessary, but otherwise Saskia relied on her agility, namely her acrobatics, in order to outmaneuver any obstacle and overcome them through sheer speed and precision.
In battle she wields a lightsaber pike with a deep orange blade.
Personality: Like many Sith, Saskia was taught to be cold, calculating, and ruthless to anyone perceived to be beneath her. However; she possesses a deep loyalty for her master, Darth Carnifex, who raised her since infancy to become a stalwart soldier of the Sith. Although thanks to her upbringing in a society that had been detached from the one of her birth she developed gender dysphoria thanks to her species initial genderless state, and even though she eventually developed into a full-fledged female she still has trouble identifying who she is one way or the other. Because of who she sired under she latched onto his mannerisms and body language, and comes off more mannish and crass than is typical of the average galactic woman.
Despite this inner turmoil, she was taught from birth of the superiority of the Sith and can be far more willing to commit any number of atrocities so long as they are done in the name of the Sith. She's even willing to give up her life for the only cause she's known all her life, but only if her Lord demands such sacrifice of her.

Combat Function: Saskia was trained in the art of the smash and grab. Her grasp over the manipulation of her body's ability to run for long distance for extended periods of time had been honed to relative perfection, and she is capable of moving swiftly and silently from place to place before finally making her presence known with a lightsaber attack. She was taught to confuse and disorient her opponents with her blinding speed, dance around their attacks before cutting through their defenses and turning them into mincemeat. Otherwise she doesn't possess much physical strength, she's unable to maintain a prolonged blow-by-blow lightsaber duel for very long. When all attempts to circumvent her opponent's attacks and defenses with speed have failed she was instructed to fall back and regroup, preferably with reinforcements if possible.
Notable Possessions:
- Sith Lightsaber Pike
- YX-1224 Light Freighter, "Sneaky Boa"
History: Saskia was born on the planet of Excarga in 822 ABY, but was quickly left an orphan after both of her parents were killed by brigands enticed to the planet for its mining opportunities. Saskia was left to die in the smoldering wreckage of her home when she was approached by an unseen figure cloaked in utter blackness who swaddled her in a rogue patch of cloth and saved her from the inferno that soon engulfed her home shortly after. Later she would learn that her savior's name was Kaine, and he would become her mentor and father figure as she matured. Despite her lack of gender, Kaine didn't treat her any differently than his other pupils and drilled into her a loyalty to the cult of the Sith, their ideals (so far as he believed), and their manifest destiny as rulers of the galaxy.
When she finally did mature into her gender, that of a female, she was ill-equipped to handle the physical and hormonal changes that suddenly took over. Kaine was unhelpful in this event, and from that spawned a lingering confusion that would haunt her the rest of her days. To cope she began to mimic Kaine's mannerisms, talking more like him, walking more like him, just generally acting more like him. She grew cold and arrogant, developing a disdain for anything she perceived to be lower than her while maintaining an unwavering loyalty to the individual who raised her since she was but a helpless babe.
Eventually she became one of his most stalwart advocates and an excellent infiltration and assassination agent for the Sith.
