STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Strong Accordance with the Force - Strength - Ulptine always had a strong connection to the force; her abilities in the light side of the force have been consistently praised by both friend and foe. The many persons she considers as teachers have typically focused on this aspect of her training while letting other aspects of her Jedi abilities atrophy. Despite her natural aptitude towards the force she does not dabble in the dark side out of extreme fear of ending up like many a Jedi before whom strayed.
Spatial Awareness - Strength - Ulptine has a good grasp of what is going on around her at a given time. This translates into more practical matters like reactions to assaults on her person; this does not translate in her effectively avoiding every blaster volley or saber strike but does aid minutely with this ability to dodge. If the body cannot keep up with the mind then having for-knowledge is useless.
Healing Touch - Strength - Ulptine has a great grasp of the Jedi Healing Arts stemming from her childhood on her parent's underground farm on Ryloth. Her parents were mainly algae farmers but did keep a small heard of Rycrit to eat on special occasions. She tended to be a miraculous healer to these creature whenever they lay hurt or sick by nursing them. This talent was enhanced by her studies in the Jedi Temple when she would spend part of her free time in the accessible archives of the Circle of Jedi Healers.
Physically Unimpressive - Weakness - Ulptine does not have an extreme prowess in her physique like other dueling specialist in her discipline. This may lead to her being on the receiving end in a lightsaber duel more often than she is delivering blows to her opponents.
Ethical Mindset - Weakness - Ulptine is extremely ethical and avoids breaking with protocol except for in dire circumstances. She is not one to go against orders unless it is against her moral will or the Jedi way. This can lead her into some sticky situations where she may strongly disagree with a notable person or lead her to not abandon a mission until it is culmination despite any losses in material goods.
SHIP:
E-Wing Escort Starfighter
The E-wing escort starfighter was a single-pilot starfighter developed by FreiTek Inc. As designed, the E-wing was intended to match, or exceed, the performance of the preceding X-wing series in nearly every respect, and was originally intended to replace the older design in service. However, the craft suffered from some significant problems when first deployed among front-line squadrons, including malfunction issues with the laser cannons. As a result, many pilots continued to fly upgraded versions of the venerable X-wing.The E-wing was considered an excellent combination of firepower, maneuverability, speed, and armor.
The spaceframe of the E-wing was surrounded by two aerodynamic foils which provided stability and increased weapons ability. The nosecone contained the starfighter's powerful sensors, while a concealed astromech droid could easily be positioned midway through the craft. The fighter was heavily armed with three laser cannons and one proton torpedo launcher with a magazine of sixteen torpedoes. - Wookiepedia
*Due to the still heavily popular X-Wing Starfighter being preferred by the general populous, Ulptine was able to purchase a used E-Wing for a relatively cheap amount from a dealer to be used on assignments.

BIOGRAPHY:
Ulptine Ixi was born the daughter of low class algae farmers on her home planet of Ryloth. Her parents, despite their lack of education, knew that their daughter had something special about her as when she tended to the meager amount of animals the couple had they would appear to be in their prime health. Seeing her talents and her natural beauty as a Rutian Twi’lek as potential markers for her being kidnapped and sold into slavery they tried to hide her from the public eye. It was not until a Jedi whom was checking on the persons of the lower class of Kala’unn felt her presence in the force. He tested her midi-chlorians and was shocked by an above average number for her age. Therefore the Jedi felt bound to bring her to Coruscant for training at the Jedi Temple. Seeing this as a way out for their daughter the couple happily let their daughter go.
While in training she was taught by a Jedi Knight that mostly focused on her abilities in the Force which was her stronger point but did not lack in trying to get her dueling strength up. She tended to spend her free time with a nose in a book, particularly on healing arts. She moved up through the training quite easily eventually making it to Padawan level. Unfortunately, there we no Jedi Knights or Master available to train her individually so she has been bouncing around from one group to the next aiding them in their exploits. She is desperately trying to find a place to belong as she feels left out of having a bond with anyone in the Jedi order besides her former classmates.
