::Basics::
Name: Persephone
Age: 16
Species: Human
::Appearance::
Height: 5' 7"
Build: Average
Eye Color: Hazel
Trademarks:
Persephone’s most telling feature are her stark glassy eyes that always play with an innate dalliance of light. She is incredibly pale with alabaster skin that almost glows in the sun. Her dark red golden hair is typically tied back cascading in loose curls to her buttocks or swept over one shoulder. A pretty youth with pouty lips and wistful eyes, Persephone does however retain an edge from living in such an urban setting. She trots through Coruscant with a masterful grace typically in incredibly tight trousers, and a cigarra in hand. She is a crucible of both confidence and insecurity.
::Personality::
Pinnacles and pitfalls:
Persephone wields a powerful wisdom that is inherited from her profound ability of introspection. Her overwhelming strengths and weaknesses are reflected in her energy of thought, the capacity of her insight coupled with her attunement to her intuition. She is adept at noticing the slightest variations of implication. As a result, it has granted her a cunning that allows her to talk her way out of any situation and the guile to contest any opponent in a clash of wills.
Surprisingly, despite this innate wisdom that was apparent at a fairly early age, she lets her emotions guide her. She is trademarked by a raw, powerful, unforgiving outtake but appearances shed to pose someone of a gentler nature, fraught with frailty and uncertainty. She has an inherent moral compass providing a strong sense of conscience that set her up as being a law unto himself. She is as capable of great selfishness as she is of selflessness. When push comes to shove she always tries to do what he knows is right.
::Force Powers::
Midi-Chlorian Count per cell: Unknown.
Subtleties:
Without realizing it, Persephone has activated the art of small and force concealment from a very early age – which only serves as a hint at what else could be disinterred from the dormant presence of the force within her. Yet without examination by a force user and the sublimation of her powers through intense training, her connection to the force remains exceedingly raw and her potential unknown. Further still, Persephone inability to focus her connection poses a threat on to her own well-being. Without the means to control her powers, their pressure on her body and mind can be too much to withstand.
::Character History::
Early Life:
Persephone’s lineage hails from Naboo, although the details of her family's life there remain vague to her. Part of her mother's family had fled war, outcasts of some kind. Persephone’s mother, although exiled from Naboo, was still of noble upbringing and had connections on Coruscant. It was later set for Persephone’s mother to be married into the Dhem family, also living as refugees from Naboo on Dantooine
Persephone was born in the Fobosi District Medcenter on Coruscant, the youngest of three sisters. She was raised in the East Minor district, arguably the closest you could get to suburbia on Coruscant. She hardly left the area for most of her youth, growing in a very insular sort of manner, one that thrived her very cerebral nature. As a child Persephone would play with neighborhood friends and her two elder sisters at Trophill Gardens but after the age of about 8 she hardly spent time with children her own age outside of school. her mother had always been anxious, something had haunted her from her past, and as a result instilled a nature of isolation on Persephone.
There was an underlying strain at the heart of her upbringing that kept Persephone from fully appreciating home life in childhood. She realized there was something different about her, something that at times seemed to truly isolate her from others even more than her mother's insistence. The force had begun to manifest itself within the girl since birth, and it was unusually smothering. There had never been any force users within Persephone’s family, and it was a longstanding opinion of theirs that adherents to the Force were a blight.
This caused great fear and confusion within Persephone, that her family might ever learn of her force-sensitivity, especially a connection so acute. Persephone learned early on, as early as four years of age, to suppress her force manifestation. Ironically, she used to force to banish any traces of its existence within her.
Throughout her younger years she had slip-ups, and some people, especially her family, came to understand Persephone was different, but hardly dared to amuse the appalling suggestion with their theories. But soon Persephone herself forgot about her connection to the force.
Recent Events:
Persephone began to rebel against the authority of her family in the predictability of her teenage years. She started dressing more provocatively, ran about Coruscant all day and night and became careless. But she also realized she was losing herself not only to the large world she had offered herself up to, but the growing hold her force powers had over her. It was all consuming and she began to really struggle with a sense of identity and motivation. Unfortunately the suppression of her powers all her life had caught up with her. At first it was merely unsettling vivid dreams and the subtle loss of control over her the lock she kept on her powers. She would be sitting in class when she would start to tremble, and with a twitch, the chronometer would slam to the floor. These mild afflictions would eventually turn into bouts of uncontrollable fits. Three quarters into her fifteenth year, Persephone was experiencing the worst of it. The ripples of power surging through her invisible prison were taking their toll. Yet despite all of this, Persephone still retained an incredible control to conceal the true nature the problem. Her family and her instructor's noticed that something was wrong, but they couldn't quite place it.
Persephone felt she could only confide in her sisters at that point, being too aghast at the prospect of confiding in her mother. Saiya, her eldest sister, would eventually take her to a clinic that their other sister Khirse had been working for, without the blessings of their mother. Her sisters figured she was going through some type of pubescent existential crisis and anxiety.
Persephone knew little to nothing about midi-chlorians, however it was the specialty of the Imperial inquisitors who grew very interested in Persephone’s case after evaluating her readings and learning that she was of two Noble houses on Naboo. Persephone had avoided a moment like this her entire life, but the degeneration of her psyche from the sheer weight of the force was proving too great for her. The church had plans to immediately sequester the girl, conduct tests, and stemming from those further evaluations either find a use for her adeptness and family's political station or proceed with termination. Yet unknown even to the Empire, the knowledge of the results of Persephone's test managed to get into the hands of another...the Sith.
Present:
Persephone was taken into an Imperial asylum against her will, where the inquisitors and Imperial officers, who assured her family she was just being given routine treatment, were deciding what use she could have for them. Unbeknownst to them, the Sith had eyes on Persephone for a while. One of the Master's on their high council had briefly sensed her presence when she was young and spent much time and effort tracking her. When she began to carelessly gallivant the streets of Coruscant one of their spies picked her up. The Imperial asylum was infiltrated and an agent posing as a nurse abducted her.
Persephone was taken deep into Sith space and steeped into the shadows of the darkside. She was tortured, broken and deceived into the early phases of initiation and training. She was boarded on a flight with the host of the individual who would become her master to the edges of sith space to begin training. Unfortunately, on route to their destination they were intercepted by a resistance team, and Persephone was rescued by a Togruta Jedi Master Ashla Lai and her human apprentice Tatum Demici as well as his astromech droid 'The machine.'
Still in the shock from her abduction and in the throes of her falling victim of the force plague that seemed to consume her, the young girl was evacuated to a resistance medical frigate and put under intensive care for her traumas.
