Dyrra Skye is a member of House Ludo Kressh of Clan Naga Sadow.
Character History
Dyrra was raised in an orphanage in Pelak Baw, the capital city of Haruun Kal. She never knew her family, as she was found on the doorstep of the building. The only connection she has to her past is her first name, which was found with her. Orphanage life was not easy for the young girl, then again, it wasn't easy for anyone there. The people who ran the orphanage were strict and it was the dearest hope of many of the children to be adopted and escape. When she was about thirteen, she was adopted by a couple living on the outskirts of the city. Dyrra's childhood was largely uneventful. She had a decent education and had a small circle of friends that she grew to count on.
Upon leaving school, Dyrra applied for and found herself working for security in the Pelek Baw spaceport. She liked her job initially, however as time wore on, she found herself finding it duller and duller. When her old schoolfriends suggested they could utilise her position to smuggle certain delicate items off world, Dyrra found herself agreeing in order to break the monotony.
Over time, their little operation grew and on her days off, Dyrra began to visit the deadly jungles outside the city, often in pursuit of the aforementioned 'delicate items'. It was then that Dyrra came into her own - she felt right at home in the jungles from the start and although she did not know it at the time, she shared something in common with the Korunnai who had made the jungle their home: Force sensitivity. She simply thought she was lucky - more than once she had a feeling which told her to duck at just the right moment and the scars and burns which cover her arms and legs are testament to just how close some of these calls have been.
Lucky Escape
Dyrra had no desire to leave the home planet she loved so much and probably never would have done had it not been for the Force. One day, as she was getting ready to go to work, she had a vision. It was of one of her friends talking to the authorities, telling them of the smuggling operation she was a part of. Dyrra had a sudden feeling that she needed to get off-world immediately and caught the first transport that she could, ignoring where it was going.
Finding herself on Nar Shaddaa, she checked the Holonet for news and discovered that a few hours after she had left Haruun Kal, the authorities had arrested all of her other friends. She had gotten out just in time. She began to wander the galaxy, taking odd jobs where she had to, to pay her way. In her wanderings, she searched for information about what it was that had happened to her, to no avail. Luck, or the will of the Force, led her to Kyataru.

Upon finding herself on Kyataru, Dyrra did the first thing any self respecting tourist should do: found the nearest bar. After a couple of drinks, she heard the owner complaining about needing help behind the bar and offered her services. The patrons were confused by their new bargirl. The concept of 'service with a smile' was almost as alien to her as their language was. She worked there for some time and quite enjoyed it, as it gave her the chance to beat up some drunks when they started a fight.
One day, when she was working, a skinny man entered and ordered a drink. When a bar fight began, he joined in, shortly before Dyrra vaulted the bar and began laying into the drunks. Eventually, the only 'drunk' standing was the skinny man and Dyrra turned her attentions to him, only to get a beating for her trouble. During the fight, Dyrra had attempted to call on the Force, something which had both amused and intrigued her opponent.
It was only after she was in a ship halfway to Antei that she discovered he was Manji Keibatsu.
Appearance and Personality
Dyrra's physical appearance is best described as 'tomboyish'- she's thin and a bit gangly, with short, bright red hair. Her eyes are green and her skin is naturally fair and covered in freckles. Her arms, when you can see them, are criss crossed with scars and old, faded burns from her exploits in the Haruun Kal jungles. Dyrra is not one for formalities and only wears her robes when she must. The rest of the time, she prefers simple, comfortable clothes.
Dyrra's personality is pretty relaxed around those she knows well, but like most Darksiders, she has an extraordinarily bad temper, which clouds her judgement, often to her detriment. She has a black sense of humour and gets more sarcastic when she's worrying. Since joining the Brotherhood, she's begun to learn to bite her tongue and treat others with some respect, if only to save her own hide.
