Biography

History

Born on Zeltros to a family of mercenaries, Aisha left the planet to seek greater instruction in the ways of the Force. She encountered a young rogue Bpfasshi Jedi Knight who held a Potentium view of the Force and traveled with him across the Outer Rim. Dar Zinthus was a former minor noble among his people, and left the world when he realized he would not inherit the family title. He honed her primitive skills in the Force to a degree somewhat less than a true Jedi Knight. The two were lovers of sorts, although Aisha's views on love differed because of her Zeltron race and upbringing.

Dar Zinthus was later slain by Yuuzhan Vong attached to a Peace Brigade group on Telos. Aisha managed to escape, leaving the planet in her damaged snubfighter "Phoenix". She eventually made her way to the Orian system, intending to lay low and hide from the Peace Brigade agents. She was well equipped, having been favored by Dar who was a man of some means.

At the tender age of eighteen Aisha found herself in city of San Korinar in the clouds of Amphor. Life in the infamous cloud city was harsh, but Aisha was made of sterner stuff. She rapidly found employment as a private enforcer and bodyguard.

The wily Zeltron worked both sides of the fence, selling her services to the underworld and the corporate sector. With the disappearance of the military governor named Xanos Zorrixor, things began a downward spiral in the city that provided ample opportunity for the tough young woman.

Aisha seldom used her lightsaber during this time, having heard rumors of powerful Dark Jedi that lurked in the Orian System. Her skills with guns and her fists and feet proved quite adequate. Things went well for over a year, and the young woman amassed some personal wealth. She had her Preybird-class snubfighter repaired and upgraded, and spent some time tooling about Amphor space.

All good things eventually come to an end. During one particularly difficult bodyguard assignment, her local crime lord client was brutally murdered by an unknown red lightsaber wielding Dark Jedi. Aisha drew her own blade for the first time in two years, but was soundly bested in the duel and received a lightsaber cut above her right eye before being knocked out by force-propelled rubble. When she returned to consciousness, she used the Force to dig herself out and managed to crawl to a nearby hospital. Her recovery took two months.

The Zeltron spent much of her time in bars, attempting to drown her sorrows with wine and passion. She had dreams of a burning sword, and does not sleep well. Although the organized crime group sends bounty hunters after her occasionally, all of them have so far met their end at her hands. Between the depression, anger, and violence that now surround her she became a much darker person. At this time, Aisha was roughly equivalent to a Jedi Hunter or experienced Jedi Padawan in ability.

After the Fight

Dark Jedi

Aisha was investigating some bombings on San Korinar when she encountered the disguised Macron Sadow and Major Qek in a posh spaceport bar. She attempted to mind trick the two swanky-appearing gentlemen into buying her drinks, and found herself being mentally dominated in turn. Macron Sadow recognized her potential as a Sith and pressed her into his service as his latest apprentice at the time.

The Sith Warlord wasted no time in his training of the strong-willed Zeltron woman. Her raw talent combined with the limited instruction she had received at Dar's hands made her the perfect "tabula rasa".

Aisha's first lightsaber

Aisha found her new master playing upon her inner weaknesses, emphasizing her extreme hatred of the Vong and her selfish pursuits of wealth and power. As well, he refused to have intimate dealings with her and was too powerful for her to dominate. Due to his strange nature, her pheromones did not affect him either. This was a powerful man she could not have. The unreachable prize drove her to seek more power over others.

She faced the temptation of having her wildest dreams fulfilled. The ability to have any man she wanted as a concubine using the power of the Dark Side was now a reality. The resources at her command as a Dlarit Special Operations Group attache were staggering. Everything she ever wanted was literally within reach, including the power to revenge her losses and protect her family. "Power Corrupts", as the old saying goes.

Aisha lost that inner struggle, and greedily submitted to the powerful Sith teachings. Aisha was now willingly a Dark Jedi. Her former Jedi business contact Jaspen was desperately searching for her at this time, sensing her impending fall into the Dark Side. Jaspen sensed her inner light fading, and began a desperate search to find her.

The Zeltron's training was a strange mix of brutality and concern, as her new Master was quite literally insane but fond of her in a grandfatherly way. Qifaxa rapidly grasped the innate nature of the self-centered nature of Sith philosophy and began to seek power from within herself. Her no-nonsense tough-nosed approach to reality served her well.

Lessons in hand to hand combat followed as well as instruction in lightsaber dueling in the Makashi form of combat. Finding that her pain, fear, and guilt could be harnessed as weapons completed her fall into the Dark Side of the Force.

She became much more powerful in a short period of time as Macron began to fill in the blanks of missing information that her previous instructor had not known. In the space of a few days, she completed her education and was given the title of Dark Jedi Knight. Having forged her own red synthetic lightsaber crystal to replace her former blue one, it was time to test her new skills.

Traits

Like all Zeltrons, Aisha is a bit of a roguish party girl. She enjoys men of all types, and tends to be the life of the party. Although she may not the brightest candle in the box, she is by no means ignorant. What she may lack in brains she makes up for with a strong "can-do" attitude and natural cunning. She prefers the latest models in firepower, and has been known to wear light suits of combat armor. Aisha has a darker side, as her former lover and teacher Dar was killed by the Yuuzhan Vong and this haunts her dreams.

Abilities

Aisha is somewhat stronger and faster than an average Zeltron, although her raw intelligence may be slightly less than average. However, she was able to construct her own lightsaber with a light blue Adegan crystal and the help of her former teacher. It was later exchanged for a red Sith crystal that she forged herself using Macron's forge.

She is fully equivalent to a Dark Jedi Knight in ability, and focused on the more combative side of the Force. She is skilled at Makashi lightsaber combat, and uses Broken Gate as her preferred martial style with a dabbling in Hapan. Because of her mercenary upbringing, Aisha is skilled with swords and knives, is an excellent shot with a blaster, and also happens to be a good pilot of snubfighter craft. One of her favorite melee weapons other than a lightsaber are vibro-knucklers and Deathhammer blasters.
