P A D A W A N _ B I O G R A P H Y
Seraphina was born on the world of Cambria. Her family, natives of Ryloth, immigrated to Cambria in hopes to build a better life closer to the Republic capital of Coruscant. Her mother, a military doctor with the Republic, was a frequent traveler and often could be found aboard Republic fleets as an active duty field medic. Her father's trade was one of a starship mechanic. A master engineer of ships ranging from the smallest of interceptors, to the grandest of destroyers. Frequently he shared stories with his son and daughter about his day-to-day activities, droids going haywire, accidental weaponry discharges, and generally entertaining anecdotes of the workplace. Her older brother had always been something of a mystery to the girl. He had run away from home at an early age, around 10, shortly before Sera was brought to the Jedi to undergo training.At the age of seven, Sera's father made the discovery that she was in fact, Force sensitive. A small argument between the two escalated where she retaliated against his scolding by harnessing the power of the Force with her adolescent mind. And through her temper tantrum, assaulted him with her small doll collection through telekinesis. Her parents made the difficult decision to give their daughter to the Jedi Order, to undergo training and learn to control her new found gift.
During her early years with the Jedi Order, she was found to be extremely rebellious, disobedient, and antagonizing towards her instructors and fellow students. Though during her classroom lessons, she displayed a variety of advanced talents including that of ambidexterity, and highly attuned telekinetic prowess, as well as an eidetic memory. The girl was capable of recalling every person she'd ever met since the age of three, even those she had only met for a brief moment. The numbers to a pattern or sequence, the locations listed on a map or list, or the smallest comment were easily retained. When it came to physical training, she was extraordinarily adept at maneuvering obstacle courses, movement prediction, and reflex control. Two personal hobbies that dominated the majority of her personal time were gymnastics and dance, both of which she practiced vigorously on a day to day basis, preferring her hobbies over socializing with the other students.
By the time she was chosen as a Padawan by Jedi Knight Kythen Tyr, she had become a phenomenal dancer and acrobat, thus her master saw fit to begin training her in the art of Form IV, and later, Jar'Kai. Though she was eager and ambitious to learn, she often felt embarrassed or ashamed whenever she stumbled or failed during a lesson.
Two years in to her training with Kythen, while on Nar Shaddaa to investigate a report that involved the abduction of several Jedi younglings the Jedi were ambushed by a number of bounty hunters hoping to make a quick profit. A bloody battle ensued, and though the duo were able to defeat the bounty hunters, one managed to escape. Determined to identify the assailants, as well as their contractor, The pair eventually located the Rodian bounty hunter in a building on the outskirts of the city. However rather than surrender to the Jedi, the Rodian revealed a thermal detonator which he intended to use to kill himself, as well as the two Jedi attempting to arrest him. Before the alien could tap on the activator and detonate the explosive, Kythen manipulated the Force and pushed her out of the second story window, saving her life.
With the death of her master, Seraphina returned to Ossus. There the Twi'lek was assigned to Jedi Master Kana Truden, who would oversee her training from that point on. While under her wing, Kana taught her a second form of Lightsaber combat - Makashi, in order to compensate for her own form's lack of defensive maneuvers. Furthermore, she taught the Twi'lek the more advanced forms of Force Barrier and Force Deflection, with Corvus Raaf having taught her Protection Bubble. Kian Karr, another Jedi Master would further expand on her mental strength by teaching her advanced telepathic techniques such as Mind Barrier.
Seraphina was present on both Manaan and Kahyyyk during the One Sith invasions. On Manaan, she both met and fought against a Sith then named Xhexania, whom she would later develop an unlikely yet strong bond with as they both grew within their respective orders. On Manaan however, at the conclusion of their fight which left Sera seriously injured, the Sith betrayed one of her own by killing him to save Sera's life, indicating that there was no strength in killing the defenseless. The two escaped the collapsed building that they had become trapped in, and when caught between a number of Republic troops upon exiting, Sera quelled their intent to Xhex down, having promised to get the Sith away from the Republic without harm. Unfortunately, another Sith Lord made their presence known, killing those troops and calling for Sera's capture. When the chips fell, the Twi'lek leaped off the side of the bridge they had been positioned on, into the murky water of the Manaan ocean, before being picked up by a transport.
Kashyyyk had been another disaster for the Republic. The One Sith invaded en masse. With their army greatly outnumbered, Sera had been forced to retreat rather quickly after engaging a younger Sith apprentice. It was here she witnessed the power of some of the Sith Lords, wielding terrible illusion magic and their Vong technology. Understanding that the planet was a lost cause, Sera took her leave of the planet rather quickly, hoping that her brothers and sisters would make it out alive. It was shortly thereafter when she was promoted to Jedi Knight. However it would not be long lasted as the events of the Netherworld took hold, swallowing billions of souls over the next six years. Sera had been trapped, without knowing for how long, wandering the desolation of the Nether, hopelessly searching for her way out until she had finally discovered a tear in the veil. Upon returning, she realized that the galaxy as a whole had been affected and torn apart. The Galactic Republic had entirely restructured and moved. Everything had changed.
K N I G H T _ B I O G R A P H Y
Post Netherworld, Sera began to take on a number of Padawans herself. Those that showed interest in learning the art she had been focused on since joining the Order. The Twi'lek reunited with Xhexania, now known by her Lord name of Venefica. Their bond began to flourish, and their closeness considered dangerous to the two at best. A series of encounters would only solidify that bond. Unfortunately they would find themselves in a difficult situation when they were both present on Dorin during the destruction of the Jedi Enclave. Forced into a bind with an apprentice that had accompanied Venefica, the group nearly came to a deadly fight. Managing to diffuse the situation, the three separated, with Sera escaping off world before the temple was destroyed.
Shortly after the purge of Dorin, Sera located the abandoned Shipyards of Nubia and was able to rally the remaining engineers and members of the Nubia Star Drives corporation to begin rebuilding the company and supply starships to the Republic and her allies. Three years passing and the Twi'lek was made a master by the Order. It had been a long 20 years since her childhood, and she had finally accomplished something worthy of mention in her eyes. Then came the invasion of Telti, a One Sith incursion once again to Republic space, which again proved disastrous for the ailing Republic.
M A S T E R _ B I O G R A P H Y
As time passed however, the Twi'lek slowly began to feel frustrated with the Republic's complacency in handling the One Sith threat. Rarely leading advances against them, instead choosing only to defend when provoked, and constantly losing skirmish after skirmish while their citizens suffered the consequences of their inaction. The Order was powerless to stop the Sith on their own, and the Republic was so tied up in their own Senate that action always seemed to come too late. The girl began to stray from battle, choosing to seclude herself and instead seek knowledge, rather than to fight the battles the Republic couldn't. Seraphina eventually came to the conclusion that she could no longer serve the Jedi Order in the capacity that was required and severed herself from the Order and Republic as a whole, choosing to exile herself from that which she loved, including her friends and family, traveling into deep space to continue her quest of knowledge of the Force, while assisting those she could when necessary.
Approximately one year would pass before she would finally be discovered any member of the Jedi Order: Corvus Raaf. Meeting up by sheer coincidence the pair embarked on a mission to rid a world of a corrupt leader. From there her journey took her to Voss, where she enlisted the aide of an old friend, Connor Harrison, to aide her in the search for Aayla Secura's lightsaber, lost amongst the forgotten battlefields of Felucia. Finally, just when she thought she would have a moment of reprieve, word reached her that an ancient artifact belonging to the Twi'lek race; the Star of Kala'uun was about to be delivered as a gift to a Hutt aboard a party barge. The female met an interesting man that identified himself by the simple name of Sarge. With his help they were able to recover the priceless artifact. One day she would see to it that the artifact was returned to the museum from which it had been stolen.
F A L L E N _ B I O G R A P H Y
That would have to wait, unfortunately. Shortly thereafter, Seraphina had procured information on a place labeled the Black Pyramid, supposedly held by a Sith Lord on the planet of Courscant. This information included prisoner data in the thousands - likely test subjects. Furthermore the facility appeared to be some sort of research division for the Sith. Drawing up a plan, Sera made a bold attempt at both causing substantial damage to the complex's operations, as well as freeing as many prisoners as possible. The plan fell apart however, and the woman was taken captive by Darth Vornskr, where she had become enslaved by the Voice of the Dark Lord.
After having broken, her memories of her former life as a Jedi stripped away, replaced by near mirror images of itself to serve as a weapon of Kaine Zambrano, the Twi'lek became an adept assassin, sent on various missions to sabotage and murder enemies of her Sith master. All the while, the memory of who she had been still itched at the back of her subconscious. A tormenting tick that constantly bubbled to the surface, longing to be uncovered, like the words that fell against the tip of a tongue, never to be muttered. Eventually the woman found herself in league with a syndicate seeking to rise to power within the dredges of Coruscant. Promised the information she sought in regards to her former self, she reluctantly agreed to act as their aide, similarly to how she had in the past for the Zambrano.
Eventually she crossed paths with a Sith Pureblood by the name of Vrak Nashar. Through coincidence, an important target of Sera's was also a man that Vrak needed information from. When Seraphina killed the man, Vrak took her hostage as a forced servant to uncover the information he sought by other means, now that the man had been killed. Throughout her reluctant time with the Sith, on multiple occasions did the two nearly kill one another, stopped only by the explosive that Vrak had planted in her back, or the fact that he needed her to accomplish his goal. Their journey took them to the heart of the syndicate where Seraphina had been employed, though the agent themselves she had never met. By uncovering the information Vrak was after, they also stumbled upon the information that Seraphina herself had been a former Jedi and a member of the Jedi Council of the Galactic Republic.
Deciding that the life she lived before was now hopelessly lost, the Twi'lek refused to continue reading the data file, and insisted that Vrak destroy what remained. With little else in terms of places to go, the decision was made to accompany Vrak to Athiss, to serve as his hand and an advisor, in return for a lavish lifestyle. With all former contacts from her previous life either dead, missing, or forgotten, her life as a Jedi was all but lost to the winds.
