| K'tana, birth name Kata'lek and the name she would go by for the majority of her upbringing, was born into a [[starwars:Twi’lek|Twi’lek]] clan on [[starwars:Ryloth|Ryloth]]. A planet well known for its cultivation of of slaves. | | K'tana was born into a [[starwars:Twi’lek|Twi’lek]] clan on [[starwars:Ryloth|Ryloth]]. A planet well known for its cultivation of of slaves. At a very young age she was sold into the services of a pleasure cruiser owned and operated by a Hutt of particular tastes. By the age of fourteen, K'tana had earned the title 'Slave Queen' because of her reputation as a loyal and fanatical servant to the Hutt. |
|
| |
|
| Her Mother, a Lethan(red skinned) and her Father, a Rutian(blue skinned), were unknowns to her and cursed her with her Tyrian(purple) flesh. Although not an overly rare skin tone among Twi'leks, it was rare among her clan. Worse yet, her colony belonged to a particular Hutt that displayed her status with her unique collection of different colored Twi’lek slaves.
| | K'tana chose her path and the emptiness that came with it, murdering other slaves who seemed unworthy or disloyal in order to prove her worth and earn her distinguishing tattoos. The Hutt made sure that the favored Twi'lek would remain beautiful and had the teenager tattooed with flattering marks of possession. Each new spot added to her long lekku was a symbol of her loyalty and the deference paid to her by the Hutt. |
|
| |
|
| When the Hutt was informed of a purple child, the one flesh color she had not yet aquired, she demanded the girl be prepared for the Hutt's ship. As soon as the child was weaned and strong enough to no longer rely on her mother to survive, she was transported to her first Owner.
| | At sixteen K'tana found out about a conspiracy involving one of the other slaves and resolved the threat by coercion, manipulation and savage brutality. The young girl used her feminine wiles to lure the male responsible for the attempted rebellion into the Hutt’s chambers. There, K’tana violently murdered him before the eyes of her owner and the patrons of the ship. |
|
| |
|
| Kata'lek was trained by older Twi'lek women and taught what would be expected of her. At age 3 she began training to serve patrons of The Slug Mistress "Pleasure and Entertainment" ship. She began her training with menial tasks; fetching food, drinks or other patrons under the supervision of a young Lethan Twi’lek. As Kata'lek grew the other older Twi'leks began to teach her the Silent Twi'lekki language. As a slave opening their mouth needlessly was considered offensive to The Slug and was punishable with being sent to “The Bath House”. The offending Twi’lek would be forced to wash their Mistress with a sponge...
| | Soon thereafter, the Twi’lek was found by her first Master and dragged, kicking and screaming, into Clan [[Arcona]] and trained in the ways of combat and using the Force. |
|
| |
|
| A task all the slaves tried their best to avoid.
| |
|
| |
|
| After approximately 10 years of being a serving girl Kata'lek was trained to dance. She had been watching her Slave-kin since she was brought aboard the ship and practicing in secret, learning how to sway her [[starwars:Lekku|Lekku]] in time with and with the same flow as her arms. Sooner than most other Twi’leks her age, she had mastered moving her lekku in time, waving them, curling them and she began using them to grip large objects.
| |
|
| |
|
| A majority of Twi'leks have this ability to move the prehensile headtails, but there are those who have had them in binding for so long they they can manage little more then wrapping them around their shoulders or wearing them like an accessory. Kata'lek was no exception to the anatomical abilities of her species, she just chose to flaunt the abilities more often than most.

| | |
| | |
| | The first Master, an Obelisk by the name of Jaek Kaeth, did very little to instill the young woman with anything other than the use of her body as a an object and a punching bag. His combat training involved giving her bruises, broken bones and further breaking her mind. |
| | |
| | During this time, K’tana went from being a hollow and empty teen to the psychotic and chaotic murderess that she is now. Through her lessons she grew into a fractured and insane sadomasochist who enjoys inflicting pain as much as receiving it. |
| | |
| | A week before her promotion to Dark Jedi Knight, Jaek’s room mysteriously caught on fire- the blaze engulfed him as he slept, leaving little behind aside from charred remains and ash. |
| | |
| | During the rest of the week leading to her promotion, K’tana’s training was taken over by a Krath Priestess by the name of [[Inarya]]. The two Twi’lek’s bonded over more than just their race and horrific pasts. They spoke and acted as sisters; confiding in one-another and watching each others back. The two former slave women, having committed murder and arson together were reluctant to part ways once K’tana was no longer required to have a Master, but free to be responsible for herself and in control of her own actions. |
| | |
| | Instead of becoming a useful member of Arcona, K’tana panicked over her newfound freedom and fled. It would be nine months before she stepped foot on [[Selen]] again. |
| | |
| | {{Dialogue|ITimeros|There are things that you must learn. If you insist on arguing, I shall teach you new ways to dispute your betters|K'tana|Whadd’ya wanna teach me first, Master number three?|K'tana and Timeros’ first interaction as K’tana learned, once again, the meaning of fear}} |
|
| |
|
| At thirteen, Kata’lek began passing messages between the slaves, the patrons & The Slug. She would meet and greet people then bring important people to meeting places on the ship. After each year of impressing The Slug Mistress she would get a set of lavender spots tattooed on her violet lekku. Kata'lek was proud of her tattoos. Whereas the others seemed to be ashamed of theirs, occasionally hiding them. A few of the girls would intentionally make small mistakes or remain in the background so as to go unnoticed and unmarked. These Twi’leks were usually easily replaced by younger and less broken-willed children. As Kata'lek became more favored she began teach the children. However, she would not teach the children how to speak with their lekku, noticing the older Twi’leks would use the Silent Twi’lekki to speak ungratefully about The Slug Mistress, and she refused to add more ungrateful or disobedient slaves to her Mistress’s court.
| |
|
| |
|
| Kata'lek grew more and more favored by her Slug Mistress and, in turn, the [[starwars:Tyria|Tyrian]] girl grew more protective and loyal to the Slug. Kata'lek began taking fighting lessons as the [[starwars:Hutt|Hutt]] grew attached to the girl and soon saw the potential of an attractive bodyguard. At age 15, Kata'lek proved herself as skilled killer as a loyal bodyguard. Kata'lek found that a male Twi’lek slave had been conspiring against The Slug Mistress. She presented herself to this male and through a series of events, drugged him. While he was drugged Kata'lek dragged the male out in front of her Slug Mistress and coerced him into telling the Hutt and the Court what he had planned. As soon as the words fell out of his mouth, Kata'lek spun around, wrenched a vibroblade from a patrons belt, grabbing a hold of his lekku with her other hand and, in one fell motion, she sliced it off at the base. His tortured scream echoed through the entertainment chamber.
| | It was more than a year later when K’tana returned to Arcona, her insanity having - for the most part - mysteriously dimmed severely. No longer prone to fits of rage or flinching when a voice or hand was raised. Instead, she was an exuberant, giggly and lustful creature of little to no impulse control. Where once she would have acted cold and distant, she now almost always wore a wide manic grin. |
|
| |
|
| The Slug Mistress was impressed. The patrons laughed and the Twi'lek male collapsed in agony and tears...
| | It was during the Eleventh Great Jedi War where K’tana proved her herself as a valued member of Arcona. She was given second in command of [[Dark Forge]] for a short time until, due to no fault of her own, the battleteam was dissolved. |
|
| |
|
| Kata'lek felt a surge of rage and power through her very being. Suddenly, without touching him, she slammed his face onto the floor then, planting the vibroblade at the base of his head, she stared into the empty eyes of The Slug. Without asking permission or having her notion confirmed, Kata'lek jammed the blade into the male Twi’leks skull and twisted. After that day she began going by K'tana instead of her birth name.
| | It was during this time K’tana met [[Timeros Caesus Entar Arconae]], the Human male who would, reluctantly, take over her training that had been previously negligent at best. The Arconae began to forge the scattered, chaotic-hurricane of a woman into a disciplined Assassin and effective leader, albeit slowly and with much tension between the two. Somehow the Elder has managed to get the volatile Twi’lek into another leadership position as Battleteam Sergeant of Shadow Gate. |
|
| |
|
| == Master to Mistress==
| | The two share an opposing but balanced alliance; each bringing more than their fair share of baggage to the table. While precarious, the dichotomy has become a double edged blade that spins end over end--circulating with devastating harmony. Between K’tana’s lustful nature and Timeros’ repulsion and refusal to let her win keeps the two of them at arm's-length from one another, but somehow still seems to work. Both Master and Student are aware that their alliance will someday end with the tip of the blade stuck somewhere unpleasant for either, or both, of them. |

|
| |
|
| A former "Apprentice" of the late Obelisk Jaek Kaeth, who mysteriously died in an accidental fire. Kata'lek has shown a determination to be fiercely loyal; even to those who do not deserve it. Suspicious peers claimed to have seen Kata'lek's bloody body dragged out of his room a day before his body was discovered among the ash of his burned quarters. She was also rumored to have been seen again going into the room, with Krath Priestess [[Inarya]], on the day that he had the tragic accident. No one has yet to come forward with proof of their suspicions and those who speak up usually change their words within hours of being heard muttering them aloud.

| Highly manic and volatile. Usually breaks into a fit of laughter or "giggling" while fighting, especially if blood is involved. She almost seems to enjoy pain and becomes more vicious the more she suffers. However, Kata'lek doesn't get better at fighting, rather she becomes more unpredictable and violent. A lifetime of slavery has left her with a hatred for slaves. She sees herself, although no longer a slave in her mind, better then they are. Former slaves immediately earn her respect, for what that's worth. | | Highly manic and volatile. Usually breaks into a fit of laughter or "giggling" while fighting, especially if blood is involved.

Biography
Early Life
K'tana was born into a Twi’lek clan on Ryloth. A planet well known for its cultivation of of slaves. At a very young age she was sold into the services of a pleasure cruiser owned and operated by a Hutt of particular tastes. By the age of fourteen, K'tana had earned the title 'Slave Queen' because of her reputation as a loyal and fanatical servant to the Hutt.
K'tana chose her path and the emptiness that came with it, murdering other slaves who seemed unworthy or disloyal in order to prove her worth and earn her distinguishing tattoos. The Hutt made sure that the favored Twi'lek would remain beautiful and had the teenager tattooed with flattering marks of possession. Each new spot added to her long lekku was a symbol of her loyalty and the deference paid to her by the Hutt.
At sixteen K'tana found out about a conspiracy involving one of the other slaves and resolved the threat by coercion, manipulation and savage brutality. The young girl used her feminine wiles to lure the male responsible for the attempted rebellion into the Hutt’s chambers. There, K’tana violently murdered him before the eyes of her owner and the patrons of the ship.
Soon thereafter, the Twi’lek was found by her first Master and dragged, kicking and screaming, into Clan Arcona and trained in the ways of combat and using the Force.

K’tana is a bewitching Twi’lek woman who is of relatively average height, and much better-than-average curves. Her lekku—which are longer than most other Twi’leks’—end just before the small of her back. She has radiant, violaceous skin, and graceful features which are complemented by spots of lavender ink trailing from the contours of her face right to the end of her lekku. From beneath her delicate, perfectly-groomed eyebrows, two striking, almond-shaped beryl eyes seem to stare right through whomever catches her gaze. What she may lack somewhat in height, she certainly makes up for in sheer presence.
K’tana spends most of her free time dancing or sparring, her muscles have grown strong and lithe, however she isn't a typical tall, long and slim Twi’lek. Her body curves gracefully which makes her dancing and fighting style an enchanting sight to behold.

Pets
- "She’s not a pet. She is my friend. Her name is Liera. You’ll get further with both of us if you remember that."
- ―K'tana describing her relationship with Liera, the Kowakian Monkey-Lizard
Before he died, while having an unexpected and rare moment of appreciation towards his apprentice, K’tana’s late Master gave her a friend. He presented her with two gifts. One was a set of emerald studded, silver lekku bands which K’tana recently sold The other was a small, female Kowakian Monkey-Lizard, named Liera. The young creature is never far from the Tyrian Twi'lek and the two of them seem to be able to communicate quite well. The Priestess is trying to teach the creature to understand the silent lekku language while she learns the gibbers and chuckles of the monkey-lizard. Unknown to most, K’tana is also teaching Liera to handle a blade.
Unbeknownst to all but a few, K’tana is also Force bonded to a rancor hatchling named May’riia. She was found after the Eleventh Great Jedi War and placed under the Twi’lek’s care. The whereabouts of this creature is unknown, even to those closest to K’tana. Those who know of May’riia have no clue what the deranged Twi’lek has planned for the dangerous creature, but several are sure that she has yet to figure it out herself.

Alias Name: Koekie Donder
Physical Description: K’tana is a creature of ego and arrogance. Although she has the ability to change her face, she changes very little. Her tattoo’s fade away, her eyes become a light shade of violet and her teeth become pointed like that of a feral animal. Aside from those slight differences, she see’s no real point in hiding her face from mundane civilians. Besides, everyone knows all Twi'leks look the same to most humanoids anyways.
Occupation & Skills: Leader of a gang called the 27’s, K’tana runs the everyday operations of prostitution and drug peddling. She uses her resources to gather intel on the underworld dealings on Ol’val and to keep the other gangs under the supervision of Arcona and Shadow Gate. K’tana is a very proficient killer, dancer and entertainer. Koekie is head of a notorious gang that once dealt with the unstable drug, Red Eye. With either persona, people underestimate Twi’leks and K’tana/Koekie uses this to her advantage, allowing her targets to think of her as nothing more than a pretty piece of flesh they can command. Once they are certain of her obedience, or impressed by her skills, they usually find the woman smirking in their face with her blade through their throat.
Behind the Scenes
Outstanding Achievements
- "Pfft, I may have been a slave, but I was the best damn slave you would've been blessed to see."
- ―K'tana's reply to a racist cat-caller
She was "saved" from execution or possible continued slavery(or so she thought) by Jaek Kaeth who brought her to the Dark Brotherhood as his apprentice. She quickly went up the ranks and earned herself two Dark Crosses and Crescent with an Emerald Star. After, her so-called Master, Jaek died; Inarya took over her training. Through her, K'tana rose rank to Dark Jedi Knight and then to Battle Team Sergeant
Random Facts
Has not seen her Former Mistress, and the woman she looked at with sisterly affection, in years now and the Lethan Twi’lek has become a distant - but fond - memory. Although she'll never say it, she misses her and doubts anyone will get as close to her as Inarya did. She clings to both Liera and May’riia as a mother would her children, having formed very maternal bonds to the two very different beings.
