Slypher

"You should know, when I was 14, I had my arm popped out of its' socket..."

"So? Why should we care, fire-crotch?"

"I popped it back into place right afterwards." Slypher and Guards aboard a ship called "The Mariner."

Biography
Slypher was a curious case when it came to the Sith. No one knew anything about her, not even her real name. She came from a small village in a very primitive world where she was raised by a group of tribesmen who knew the will of the force and believed her to be a "chosen one" of their prophecy.

It was theorized that the natives she was raised by were in fact a sect of Kaleesh force adepts who saw neither light nor dark in the force, but just the force itself. This group of people were found on Kalee, deep in the forests.

According to their prophecy, one of "A great dark lords' power" will come among them, but will not be one of them. They will be an insider, a learner of their ways and a child of their gods, but of a different people. Considering Slyphers' exquisite connection to the force and how she was found in their village as a baby, left by her dying parents, they assumed her to be the one of their chosen prophecy.

However, her village was burned by an reckless acolyte in pursuit of her for the empire itself. If it weren't for the Empress, she would have died on that day.

Pre-Birth
Not a soul alive is aware of this fact, but Slypher was born from a very valuable blood-line. Her family was almost as famous and known as the Skywalker clans; the Revan family-line. Her parents were from a long line of those who descended from Darth Revan, who had kept personal business such as that private.

The family line passed down, with them slowly forgetting who they came from and why at least one out of each generation was such a wellspring of power in the force.

Eventually, Slyphers' parents, Kordman and Liyla Rav had met and fell quickly in love with each other. Kordman was a powerful Jedi Master who had such a grasp on the force, he was able to manipulate the universe around him to create a castle by using his illusion tricks. He was wise beyond his years, and was an expert with his lightsaber.

Her mother, Liyla, was also a force adept, but she wasn't a Jedi. She remained unnoticed by the big orders, and planned to keep it that way until she died. She held a small job at a restaurant to help give her and her husband a bit of spending money for themselves.

After a few years, though, the couple began to expect a baby. What Kordman didn't expect was for a group of hitmen to come after them. Apparently, after a mission Kordman performed that went horribly wrong, one of the Hutt overlords put a hit out for them that would eventually lead to the twos' death, Liyla barely able to give birth to poor Slypher.

When they ran, their ship was damaged near Kalee space, sending them crashing down to the planet where the parents suffered terrible injuries, the cost to focusing on protecting their daughter completely. After the ship crashed and her parents died, a tribe of Kaleesh found the baby and took her in.

Early life
She was trained at an early age by the Kaleesh. The elders held her in the highest regards, saying she was the one that would bring their people to the new age. She was trained to fight like a fierce warrior, and whether she realized it or not, she was trained to fight like a true Sith.

After a few years, a young Acolyte named Grothror Hithma, son of Cpt. Loror Hithma, was sent to retrieve her after her presence sent a huge wave of energy in the force throughout the galaxy. The Sith were the first to pick up on it. They figured they could give Grothror a chance to redeem himself for his carelessness and arrogance in the way of the Sith.

He failed, burning down the entire village of Slyphers' people in front of her, and nearly killing her himself. If Empress Andraste hadn't been there, she would be dead too. However, the Empress didn't even need to stop the acolyte. Slypher ended up delivering the killing blow that impressed the Empress.

It was then when the Empress took her in and raised and trained her herself, teaching her the ways of the dark side of the force. Slypher was the odd one at the academy, always by herself and only talking really to Andraste. She would train and study, but do nothing more. She would also practice with her lightsaber.

Eventually, she surpassed her peers and even killed another acolyte for making fun of her. She gained a very powerful grasp of the force and made Andraste proud to have trained her.

She finally became an Acolyte of the Sith Empire.

Disappearance
After years of training and surviving a difficult trial for acolytes called the acolyte tournament, she met a young force adept named Junior and decided to leave with him on a journey to discover more of the force and acquire more power. She had met and was training with the demoted master, Asuka Trang.

She learned much about the force, and eventually left the service of Junior and branched out on her own, having earned enough credits to do so. Asuka returned to the empire and she was no longer seen.

Slypher traveled the galaxy, visiting worlds such as Manaan and Felucia and learning powers and secrets in the force that only masters would go out of their way to find out. She located the tombs of Darth Nihilus and Darth Plageus, learning the secrets they held within their holocrons.

Each time she discovered a holocron from an ancient Sith Lord, they referred to her as the 'Revanspawn.' She chose to ignore it and not dwelve into its meaning, telling herself that she wasn't ready to learn the secrets of her past.

Return
Slypher finally returned to the empire and continued to train, showcasing her newly-found knowledge of the force to the dark council in order to be recognized for her force prowess. She had hopes of becoming a crusader and getting the chance to teach others what she knew.

The Mariner
During a peaceful trip to Manaan, she was captured by a drug lord who used the blood of force adepts (the midi-chlorians) to make a potent and powerful recipe for the common "death sticks."

Her, along with two other Sith and a Jedi, had to escape from the trap using only their wits and the weapons they had available, since the drug they were injected with severed their connection to the force and kept them just drugged enough to keep them from overdosing, but to continue severing their connections.

Eventually, she found a way to break out and used her non-force related skills to escape with the others, leading them to survival and freedom while eliminating the drug lord.

She knew that while the Sith wouldn't care too much about drug lords and their activities, she knew that any Sith would kill someone who just as equally tried to take their lives. She was only acting as her culture taught her.

Death
Slypher is currently alive and well.

Personality and traits
Slypher is a serious girl who keeps herself focused and restrains from distractions. She is a girl and has girly moments like any other would, but is also a Sith and acts accordingly so. She does not believe that what she is or how she acts is evil, but such is to come from one who was raised on Sith belief.

She has moments where she can be sarcastic, and also moments were her truly evil and vindictive side comes out, but when engaged in a normal conversation, even for a Jedi, she is easy to get along with. Others are usually prewarned about her short temper, though.

Powers and abilities
Like her ancestor, Darth Revan, she has a wide array of powers at her disposal, many of which she didn't know she had. She has powerful telekinetic abilities as well as telepathic. She has a profound skill with force lightning, and is capable of draining life and force energy from other living beings.

She is also capable of making herself completely invisible and undetectable through the force and to the naked eye. She can heal wounds and is able to crush and reshape objects using force telekinetic abilities.

All-in-all, she knows many powers and is still learning them.

Behind the scenes
The character is actually inspired from a fan-fiction I wanted to write about a character who was of the bloodline of Darth Revan and had no idea. She was originally a Jedi, and was also a Zeltron. She wasn't going to be so young when the story started, and was going to be considerably stronger.

Her name originated from a creature in a card game that many should be familiar, but her original name was going to be "Raven" to hint at who she might be related to.

When I entered thestarwarsrp.com and chose to use her as my first character, I remodeled her to be a Sith and to make her look underestimated. I wanted it to be a surprise that she was the late child of the descendants of Revan, but decided to keep her lineage under wraps for fear of her being rejected.

So far, she is a fun character and continues to surprise people with each play she's presented in.
