When she discovered her Force Sensitivity she started seeing herself as a successor to the legacy of Palpatine as the Empire of the Lost has started to rise in authority Teckla has started to move away from her home ruling council on Pakuuni with aspirations of becoming an Empress in the ilk of Palpatine.

She is extremely anti-”alien”.

- Arrogance - Because of her extensive training and other gifts Teckla feels herself superior to most beings in the galaxy. As a result, while she is quite cognisant of macro happenings she often ignores the micro

HISTORY
Teckla was born to a prominent military family on the planet Pakuuni. At a young age it was discovered that she was gifted by the Force and was secretly taken in by a darkside practitioner as his student. This Master had plans to rise to prominence on Pakuuni and build an Empire in the Outer Rim that would grow to rival what Palpatine had built many centuries ago. Teckla studied hard, in the light of day she dedicated all her energy to becoming the greatest military mind on Pakuuni. In the shadows she took in all the Force teachings that her Master had to offer.
To date neither Master nor student are happy with the outcome of their collaboration. While the Master was very gifted in the Force, he did not have the cold-blooded ambition that his student did. He lacked the ability to reach his goals and once Teckla thought there was nothing more she could learn from her Master, she killed him and took the role of Master for herself. She was a Master without a student however. Teckla cared not about passing on her talents. She thought that was one of the few errors Palpatine made. If he had not put faith in his Apprentice, Vader the Empire could have lived forever.
Without a student bogging her down, Teckla pushed through the hierarchy of Pakuuni. But as a woman she could not get a firm grasp on ruling the planet. Instead she has decided to now branch out. For now offering her military expertise to the Empire of the Lost, with the promise of aiding them in moving into not only Pakuuni where the would be more than welcomed, but also in dominating nearby Munto Codru and Ruisto, two less amicable systems to Imperial expansion. Of course eventually she plans to install herself as the Empress of the Lost.
