- Role: Adopted Daughter
- Links: Aftermath: Seeking Answers
- Age: Seven
- Force Sensitivity: Non-Force User
- Species: Sephi
- Appearance: Teli is a seven year old Sephi girl with dark hair, brown eyes, and pink skin. She has two jewels embedded in her skin, amber pieces, above her eyes. For her age she is of average weight and height, and has no distinguishing markings other than the stones. Her pointed ears are a dead giveaway that she is not a zeltron. Typically she wears a tiara, as seen above, that is the last thing she has of her mothers, and enjoys wearing long dresses and pulling her hair back.
- Name: Teli
- Loyalties: She is loyal to Sobaan Palle and Kintsugi.
- Wealth: Moderately. Sobaan is the owner of Overlock Industries, which specializes in building ships of war among other things, so they have a tidy sum of money available to them. That isn't to say she walks around with access to it. As she grows older her capability of dipping into family funds will increase, but for now she is a child with a monthly allowance.
- Notable Possessions: She has a burnished iron and sapphire tiara that is an heirloom of her mothers.
- Skills: She is a child and is skilled in mischief making, and being adorable.
- Personality: Teli is not an overly talkative child. If anything she has a tendency to be quiet and show signs of depression. Having witnessed her parents succumbing to the attack on Tirahnn by a Sith, wherein the people were subjected to their worst nightmares, she ultimately saw them kill themselves, and has had little ability to reconcile this despite being taken in and saved from the horror. She is apt to follow along more than to lead, even when among other children, and while she isn't very talkative with the other children, she is still more than eager to play with them. She does have the capability of making friends, and getting into trouble, albeit mostly harmless trouble. She likes dresses and feels most comfortable when she's wearing one, just as she has favorite stuffed animals that she cannot sleep without. Her fears were so realized in the attack that she can no longer sleep without a nightlight, the door to her room cracked, and someone has to check under the bed and in the closet for monsters. While that might be normal for someone her age, she shows no signs of growing out of it anytime soon. She is prone to fear, and often reacts frightfully to harmless things. She loves to be hugged and held, however. This is especially true when Kintsugi is around.
- Weapon of Choice: Hiding is her weapon of choice. Or kicking someone in their shin.
- Combat Function: She would prove a foil in combat, as she is just a child. The objective would be to protect her, not for her to fight. Ultimately her job would be to run and hide, not to be engaging in battle with anyone.
Teli was born and raised on Tirahnn. Her parents had left Isobe ages ago, after their worlds were part of one galactic government or another. They resettled on Tirahnn purely by chance, her father finding work there before she was born. After she was born, she had no reason to fret. Tirahnn was not a sought after target by the major galactic governments, and they barely had to worry about much other than the stray bad guy wandering in from time to time. She mostly lived a happy, healthy, early childhood, with a few friends that her mother new the parents of. She became accustomed to being around members of other species as a result and had no qualms about people that were different looking than her.
One day a Sith known as The Terror came to Tirahnn and attacked the capital city where she lived. In doing so, she unleashed a powerful control of the minds of the people. Teli and her parents were affected by this, seeing their worst fears coming true around them. She saw monsters everywhere, and tried to run to her parents to save her, but they were freaking out, and ended up running to the top of the building and throwing themselves off the roof. She saw this happen, but didn't completely understand, so she ran back down into her home and hid inside of a wardrobe. It was there that she was eventually found by Sobaan and Kintsugi, who were working together to try and fix the damage that was done to the world.
They ultimately discovered what had happened to her parents, and rescued her from impending doom, at which point Sobaan decided to take her in as his child, with Kintsugi's help. She now lives with him on Aurum.
