Character Information:
Character Name: Mara Jade
Age:Mid-Twenties
Canon: Star Wars: Expanded Universe
Appearance: Mara is a striking young woman. She's fair skinned and freckled, with a shock of fiery red hair almost constantly worn down in a wild tumble, and dark green eyes.
Personality:
When discussing Mara Jade, many things come to mind. A clever young woman with sharp wit and an even sharper tongue, Mara can talk her way out of almost every situation. And when talking doesn't work, she certainly has an arsenal of other means. She's proud, although it often passes over into the category of stubborn, and is very driven. Once Mara's mind is set on something, whether it's hunting a certain blond Skywalker, or fighting for her own survival, she's not one who gives up easily. A pragmatic soul, she's one who is cool in the face of danger, and prefers to look at any situation with a calculative edge.
One of Mara's greatest weaknesses is her inability to rely on others. Due to having been controlled most of her life, she isn't one to trust easily out of fear of falling into someones grasp once again. Mara at this point in her life is also easily susceptible to the Dark Side; it's only due to her strong will that she hasn't completely fallen back into her old ways.
As a form of defense against forming relationships with others, Mara is very snarky, with a biting retort for nearly every situation. She's one who prefers to keep up walls between herself and others to protect a soul who's honestly been through far too much for one so young. Mara dislikes talking about her past, partially due to the fact that there isn't much she can actually remember about her earliest days, and quickly turns onto the defensive when others try to peer into her mind.
Background:
"Yeah, it's true. Now tell me who blabbed so I can go cut his head off."
Canon point:Post "The Last Command", when Luke gives her his father's old lightsaber. Mara is at a very precarious point in her life at that time, from her fulfilling of Palpetine's last command, to her new (and very uneasy) friendship with Luke. She's on the way to becoming the Jedi she's destined to be, just not quite yet.
Special Abilities:
Mara is a Force sensitive human female. Which means she's telekinetic, has the ability to induce healing trances over herself as well as others, and has minor empathetic abilities. Mara is capable of forming powerful telepathic bonds with those she's close to, and is also very skilled at shielding her mind. Though she isn't the most powerful when it comes to Force suggestion, Mara happens to have a very keen danger sense- something she had to develop over her time as an Imperial Agent. A skilled slicer, Mara is able to hack into almost any secure files with ease and is also capable of rewiring electronic devises with some proficiency. Mara is well trained in unarmed combat, and is also capable of wielding multiple styles of weaponry.
Furthermore, Mara is a highly skilled pilot and mechanic and is talented in the arts of disguise and infiltration. She's adept in reading and assessing both situations and people, and is an expert tactition.
Sect:
Civillian (for now)
Job:
Smuggler
Samples:
First Person:
Mara chats with Luke.
Third Person:
The city of Coruscant sprawled before her, all bright lights and movement. Mara Jade at the chest high wall surrounding the roof of her apartment, leaning against the barrier with her arms crossed. The concept of staying grounded in a single area was still very foreign to her, and she longed to be out and about. A sharp breeze tore threw her hair, fanning it about her face in a red-gold tangle. She closed her eyes, breathing deeply. It was astounding how everything could change in a matter of seconds, yet still all seemed the same. Everything here felt free of any traces of the Emperor's darkness, which was so blatantly obvious that if anyone else had said it Mara would have scoffed.
The thought of being completely free and untainted from his hold- something that had still felt so strong in the years after his demise- was a beautifully sweet notion to say the least.
Perhaps she truly could be so here in the past.
And yet, there was darkness.It was great, and looming, and made Mara feel dizzy and uneasy. Her senses would scream at her to run, to hide, to save herself. Something terrible was coming.
Or perhaps it was already around.
