Krisa Hayema

Krisa Hayema was a Jedi Knight during the Alsakan Crisis.

Early life
Born on, Krisa Hayema was the only child of two Coruscani parents, her father being a and a speaker in many public circles, high up in the hierarchy of Coruscant, her mother a lady interested in parties with members of the upper class, and obsessed with the appearance of herself and her family in the eyes of the public. Being born to these two parents meant that her father and mother were often away, on business and at parties respectively, and so so Krisa was left, as a young baby, to the care of a childminder on regular occasions, with the full use of the mansion her parents enjoyed due to her father's lucrative job. Although the first few months of Krisa's life were spent with her parents, her father being on paternity leave, that soon changed after her eight month of age. After reaching the age of three, and having a basic grasp over the power of speech, Krisa's father hired tutors to teach Krisa in the art of speaking to the public, his own field of expertise, as he believed that being able to publicly speak would be an important art that she could gain and use in later life, and he also believed it would please his wife, as having a young child skilled in this art would help to raise the public opinion on there family, this improving her mood. Krisa took to it at once, her actions giving the impression that she enjoyed it immensely, and her natural ability to be able to speak, a by-product of her being very excitable coupled with what she had inherited from her father, meant that she was considered a natural in this field.

At the age of six, Krisa attended a local Coruscani school for those of Coruscant's upper class, where she boarded, meaning that she saw her family very little. This made no real difference, as most of Krisa's social contact had been with her childminder, but it did means she was forced to, instead, concentrate on learning to be a young woman and being educated, so she had very little social interaction of a pastoral nature, bar the pastoral aims of the school, which often failed miserably. This meant Krisa was forced to fend for herself, and she learnt skills in how to rely on herself only, meaning she needed very little interference from others. Although this may have forced her away from social interaction, and left her alone and without friends, it didn't do that by any means, but just made her more independent.

After reaching the age of 16, Krisa had developed into a young woman, with a large education from her upbringing, and the ability to publicly speak well, and she looked to be perfect material to follow in the footsteps of her father, and become a senator. However, being stifled by the rigid rules of a senate didn't appeal to Krisa, and she sought other lines of work. Unfortunately, this view conflicted with that of her parents, and Krisa was forced to follow the path set for her by her parents, meaning she was bundled away, once again, to study for the senate in another boarding school on the outer edges of Coruscant,to start afresh in social circles. Although Krisa knew her parents were trying to do this for her own good, this didn't stop her being stifled by the regime she had been forced into.

Discovery and training
However, at this school there turned out to be a master who had reasonable force sensitivity, being a worker for the Jedi, spotting talent, and, despite Krisa's age, he told her of her force sensitivity, and offered to take her to and to help her to train as a Jedi. Faced only with the option of becoming a senator, Krisa readily agreed, before she remembered her parents. Whilst they had been forcing her into doing that which she didn't want to do, she still loved her parents and she had no inclination to just leave. However, Krisa returned to find a freak accident had killed her parents, a passing transport having crashed, and crushed them. After this, there was nothing more for her, and she agreed to travel to Ossus, to be trained as a Jedi. Arriving upon the Jedi world of Ossus, Krisa was taken to the Great Temple of Ossus, where she would await finding a master, or mistress, to train her in the ways of the Jedi and the, in combat and in emotion control. At that time, Banik Kelrada was Grandmaster of the Jedi Order, and Krisa began to seek a mentor to train her as a Jedi. Eventually, Krisa was selected by Amaterasu Selena, and began training under her tutelage and guidance.

Personality and traits
Krisa had a very excitable, outward personality, being not very shy, mainly due to her upbringing having aspects of being taught the art of public speaking. She was very charming and friendly, having noticed the benefits of having friends in high places. Loyal to those who were her friends, she also would firmly stick up for what she believed to be right, arguing her point of view for a long time, until it would seem all hope had failed that she could pull out a victory. She was relatively humorous, yet not to the extent of stupidity, and she recognized serious situations and could adapt her personality to fit them.
