Vaiyani

Vaiyani was a female Toork Centurion and Royal Guard. Vaiyani was commissioned before the Tribulation and fought in both the Vagaari War and the Ssi-ruuvi Incursion. She served as a Royal Guard to Queen Rin Sakaros from 149 ABY to 151 ABY, serving alongside Tarzg Sav'lir, Vos'elk'eetash, and Assayr, among others.

Vaiyani and Assayr had been friends since their Novice days, but became very close during their year of overlapped Royal Guard duty. When Assayr married in 151, only weeks after Vaiyani rotated out of the Royal Guard, she served as his attendant. Vaiyani became close with Assayr's wife Chicha, and they comforted one another after Assayr was killed in the Battle of Renthiv in 155 ABY.

Powers and abilities
Vaiyani trained in and  as extensively as all other Centurions, though she had a particularly strong ability to communicate with Assayr without a word or even eye contact. Having served as a Royal Guard, she had a particularly honed danger sense.

Vaiyani was a stylist, and honed her skills with such Form V luminaries as Tarzg Sav'lir and Breek Zagrev. She and Assayr sparred hundreds of times, and each had a deep understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the other's form.

In addition to her lightsaber combat skills, Vaiyani's natural physical hardiness and strength made her a natural at Var Shek.

Appearance and personality
Vaiyani had brown armor plating with lighter brown flesh on her upper arms, face, and thighs. She tended to wear her oddly placed clumps of blond hair in tightly wrapped buns. Her deep-set eyes were flat black. She carried a standard lightsaber with a goldenrod blade.

Vaiyani was competitive in lightsaber combat and martial arts, and employed her natural strength for the brute force-oriented Djem So despite her relatively small stature. Outside combat, however, she was a generous and caring person, and often volunteered for mercy and relief missions in addition to combat. Aside from her close friendship with Assayr, Vaiyani was also on closer terms with both Tarzg Sav'lir and Vos'elk'eetash than most Centurions.
