Template:Krath charinfo

Mayda Ferium is a a human female from Utapau. A member of House Acclivis Draco of Clan Scholae Palatinae, she resides on Judecca with her Master, Consul Kunar. This Jedi Hunter of the Krath order is a member of the Mandalore Battle Team and serves as an Editor for the Dark Voice Newsletter.

Character History

A human female raised on Utapau by her father. She had force sensitivities early on, but no one to train under. As a teen, she became a liaison to the Utapau Representatives to the New Republic, working behind their back as a spy for Black Sun. She is charismatic, patient, and loyal. Not a merciless killer, but she's ripped the heart out of a Jedi who said his heart was hers to keep. She prefers to affect change behind the scenes, making backroom deals and gathering allies.

Childhood

Mostly reclusive, Mayda and Elric Ferium hid out in a remote, lesser-known city-sinkhole on the planet Utapau, where Mayda’s grandmother had been raised. As a young child, she was content, but sheltered. She made many friends, mostly Utai and other humanoids, but never really felt comfortable around humans, not having seen them often.

When Mayda was a little girl, she always knew that she was special. Of course it helped that her father told her so repeatedly, every night at bedtime. She was gifted, with the Force, and was able to do some trivial parlor tricks - moving utensils across the table, sensing danger from others, but nothing more as her talents were untrained. Her father didn’t want to encourage his precious little girl to become a Force-user for many reasons, but mostly for their well-being and survival. There could ostensibly be danger if they were found to be living there; Mayda never knew the reasons for that. Elric didn’t want Mayda to improve her skills and come to use them on others or rely on them, as that would be dangerous to anyone who was her victim, and call attention to them.

Mayda was always looked after by her father, so there was no reason to need self-defense. Her father taught her to find other ways to get herself out of a dilemma first - using diplomacy, negotiation, manipulation, deception or anything else verbal or non-confrontational. So her cunning and guile were developed from an early age, and she showed great talent in that and an affinity for it. Perhaps this was accentuated by her Force-talents, but that would not be obvious to most species they came in contact with on Utapau.

At the age of 13, she was traveling on a transport with her father to some Outer Rim world as part of his undisclosed but shady business ventures. Before they reached it, the ship crashed, leaving Mayda with burns and scarring, though glad to survive, thanks in part to some force healing from her father. After that, she stayed reclusive for a few years.

Adolesence

At the age of 16, she became a liaison to the Utapau Representatives to the New Republic, working behind their back as an undercover spy for Black Sun. Her father was a secret agent for Black Sun, and therefore encouraged Mayda, as one of the few humans there, to serve as a Liaison and Assistant to some Republic and Utapaun politicians. She would finally put into use her mental skills of deception and charm to gather information. Though her father had relented and taught her basic self-defense, he stressed that she should never resort to violence unless it was an emergency, especially since she was not physically strong and trained in combat. Elric recognized and told her that her mind was her greatest weapon. She excelled at studying her enemies and exposing their weaknesses, playing on their vanity and other shortcomings. Moving to Pau City, she lived amongst the politicians, and only met secretly with her father every month. She was able to gather Classified information and pass it onto Black Sun through him.

Path to the Brotherhood

In 24 ABY, the NR made a wide sweep, arresting all Black Sun Agents, including her father. Mayda was not discovered as part of them, but was about to be under suspicion, so she fled Utapau. With the small savings that her father had amassed, she traveled to a few outer rim planets, and was able to afford some plastic surgery on her face. Her anger and loneliness only exaggerated her leaning toward the Darkside. She decided that she must find a place where there were others like her, others who could take her in, as part of their organization. In 26 ABY, a spice smuggler told her to seek out the moon Lyspair.
