Character History
Early Life
Born on the planet of Ryloth, Tali Zorah was sold into slavery at a young age. She grew up being traded from master to master, never really having a home for too long as she was either traded or stolen as the power between criminals waxed and waned. Eventually, she was given to a Toydarian crime boss named Raoul Kar'Dannaa, who worked as one of the lieutenants of the Hutt clan. Kar'Dannaa was a collector of rare artifacts and in his eyes, the purple skinned twi'lek was yet another desirable collectible to own and show off to his rivals.
Freedom
Having served under Kar'Dannaa for several years, Tali Zorah, by the time only 22 years of age, observed her master go through a particularly taxing negotiation for the purchase of a rare object for his collection. To her, it was but a simple metal tube wrapped in brown worn leather, but the Toydarian placed great value upon it as he was willing to pay an exorbitant price for its acquisition.
However, the intense negotiation had left him tired and this made him careless, forgetting to observe the normally high levels of secrecy over his access codes and Tali was able to acquire the key needed to open the object's display case aboard his ship. As she picked up the odd object into her hands, she felt a faint whisper in her mind, telling her she had to escape and that the item she held in her hands was a weapon that would allow her to do so.
Igniting the lightsaber for the first time in years, she cut her bonds, damaged the ship enough to cause a fire to break out, before making her escape onto the planet below in one of the escape pods, hoping that the ship's demise would claim with it her cruel master and all his goons.
Arrival to the Brotherhood
Tali was discovered on Eldar by Xenna Azara who took her to Port Ol'val after sensing she was attuned with the Force. She was accommodated in one of the lowest ranking habs in the Pride and given a basic allowance to sustain herself while her superiors tried to figure out what to do with her. During her first days on Ol'val, she learned to know Kordath Bleu d'Tana as well as several other figures of ill repute and importance that would come to shape her future for years to come.
Tali studied in the local branch of the Academy, training in lightsaber combat in the training rooms and learning to harness her latent Force abilities. She never became much of a warrior, being far too timid in most situations to truly be effective on the battlefield, but she did learn how to defend herself. Her Force training seemed to focus more on her mind-altering powers which, coupled with her natural seductive ways, held promise of her one day becoming a very useful asset for her House and Clan.
Knighting
With her progress as both a Jedi and Shadow Gate operative coming along at an impressive rate, Kordath wished to make a gesture of kindness and aid her in finding her lost parents. Using his information network and contacts, the Ryn was able to trace her lineage to a moon around Ryloth where she took Tali in secret, never telling her the reason of the sudden deployment.
Once they arrived on the moon, it did not take them too long to find the settlement and Tali's parents who were very surprised to see their long-lost daughter. Overjoyed, Tali was grateful for the Ryn's gift and proceeded to learn to know her parents who invited her to stay for a few days. While Tali was learning to know her folks, the Ryn excused himself to the nearest cantina, as was his nature, where he overheard whispers about the recent incident at the Zorah-family's residence. The locals were surprised to see the child the matron Zorah had sold to slavers return and it was causing quite a buzz.
