Eilen Jath is a Force-sensitive hybrid, the offspring between a Bothan mother and a Selonian father. She is a recent arrival within Clan Arcona, and is currently studying with Ruka Tenbriss to further develop her untrained powers. While notably awkward and quirky, Eilen's strong precognitive senses and well-developed dexterity help to make her a fine pilot. Although she makes for an unorthodox combatant, she has a variety of practiced talents, and is quite effective in the art of sabotage.
Physical Description
Eilen is a hybrid born of Bothan and Selonian parentage. Her Bothan features are dominant through her tall, pointed ears, and her fur pattern, which is primarily colored a dark, dull brown. Her face is a rough combination between each of her parent races, presenting mixed aspects of both. Her eyes in particular sport a Bothan's more typical mammalian form, and are colored a pale shade of purple. She is taller than a typical Bothan thanks to her Selonian roots, her body lean with sinewy muscle. What separates her most from other Bothans, however, is her half-meter-long tail and digitigrade, three-digit feet.
Like most Bothans, Eilen's fur grows thick on her head, except for her face, on which it is very short. Eilen's "hair" is swept back, with a few strands falling loose over the right side of her face, and the rest left in a thick, tangled mess. Behind her right ear, she grows a small patch of hair quite long, which she braids and drapes over her shoulder.
Eilen has earned a handful of small scars over the years, including a long gash across the back of her left shoulder, although they are not often noticeable through her fur. A number of small ring-like decorations are tied into strands of hair, worn proudly along with a forehead circlet with some small decorations attached.
Biographical History
A Hybrid's Origins
Eilen Jath was originally born as Eilen Ru'tyari, a hybrid child born between a Bothan mother and a Selonian father. Her mother, Lonae Ru'tyari, was an agent within the Bothan Spynet who helped liberate a captured Selonian named Rosica, who had long been inducted into the Spynet as a spy. To her surprise, Rosica was a rather dependent individual who was unable to safely return to his home, and thus sought a new shelter with somewhat assisted living. After some debate, Lonae reluctantly opted to provide her home as his, as she had already learned some of his quirks. In time, however, they grew close, and eventually bore a hybrid child, Eilen.
Quiet Youth
Between her mother's continued involvement with the Bothan Spynet and her father trying to maintain a low-profile life, Eilen did not leave home often in her youth. Most of her education was either home-schooled or achieved over the holonet. She only knew a handful of trusted family friends and allies in person, some of whom would help to care for her and Rosica when Lonae had to leave for long periods. Eilen's isolation only worsened after her father died of medical complications when she was six years old.
Without much to take up her time and fill her desires, Eilen learned to make her own entertainment. Following her father's passing, she began to crave the chance for greater experiences in life, and to do so without dependence on others. Eilen began sneaking out at night to see new places and observe the world beyond her home, though she made a point to never interact with or be caught by other people. Her free time spent at home largely consisted of either reading or finding creative ways to occupy herself, often with inspiration drawn from things she had seen in the outside world.
Forces of Change
As Eilen's adventurousness began to flourish, so too did her unsuspected connection with the Force. As far as she could explain it to her mother, things would come to her as she reached for them, and she could see some things moments before they happened. It was around this time that one of Lonae's friends and occasional associates, a Kel Dor smuggler named Baro Jath, began taking an interest in Eilen's personal growth. As a hidden Force-user himself from the era of the Galactic Empire, Baro could sense her presence and growing connection with the Force. Although he had chosen to maintain his former lifestyle rather than affiliate with any emerging groups of Force-users after the Empire's fall, Baro believed it would be a waste to prevent the growth Eilen's newly discovered potential. It took some convincing, but Lonae eventually let Baro begin teaching Eilen about the Force when he was able to visit.
While Baro was not able to see Eilen frequently due to the nature of his work, Eilen quickly grew fond of his visits and teachings. The Force fascinated her, but more than that, Eilen begged to hear about the rest of the galaxy from Baro's perspective, as she believed from his short tales of his travels that he had seen it all. Though he certainly left out a number of details about his actual smuggling work at the time, Eilen was captivated by the thought of so many stars and planets one person could reach. Baro became as much of a teacher to Eilen as he did a driving force for her desire to leave home, more than ever.
