Born on Haruun Kal to the Ghosh (tribe) Faar, she was the only child of her mother and father, who were both excellent artists. Tribal life did not satisfy his father (always seen as a sort of crackpot), he associated with lowlanders, and their off-world visitors. Athena, however, loved their wild world, exploring, hunting, pushing herself. But her father, enamored by the galaxy beyond, did the unthinkable and left the jungles to start a new life. He chose to do this on Rishi.HISTORY
Athena did not have the talent, nor remotest interest, in her parents arts and crafts. As a teenager she found meaning in maintaining the strong body that came natural to life in the dangerous jungles of Haruun Kal. Life on Rishi had no such physical demands, so Athena worked tirelessly in exercise and training herself. It was a natural migration from a regimen of physical excellence to the martial trainings. As much as she could, she studied martial arts and took up marksmanship. Much to the dismay of her parents.
Galactic strife arose, as it always did, and Athena's politics clashed with her parents. The Mandalorian Enclave struggled as it strove to hold onto member worlds, like Rishi. She had secretly admired the Mandalorians since leaving Haruun Kal. Then she found a way to be as much like them as possible. The Aruetii Foreign Legion. At the age of twenty she enlisted, with only a small hope of being accepted by the elite non-Mandalorian force. Yet she did.
Leaving her family behind (only discovering later that they had been killed in unrest), Athena embraced her new life in the military with the devotion she had to the Four Pillars of the Korun. Athena's service record in the Aruetii was stellar and her reputation as physically aggressive and fearless helped her rise quickly through the ranks to become an officer, in spite of her sharp tongue and sarcasm. At the end of her five-year service, The Korun was offered to re-enlist, or become a Mandalorian foundling. There wasn't a moment of debate.
Athena was adopted by Clan Saxon, and now goes through the difficult training and indoctrination of the Mandalorians.

APPEARANCE
Athena's stature is rather tall for a human woman, and her figure athletic. Trained under the rigid physical regimen of the Aruetii, Athena's physique is lean and muscular, maintained not only for optimum strength, but agility and speed.
She has the dusky brown skin and dark eyes of her Korun parents. Her hair is raven black. Athena's skin is marked by tattoos that cover her entire left arm, lower right arm and either side of her rib cage. Minor scars also marr her skin in several places.

StrengthsAruetii Training: The non-Mandalorians of the Enclave's foreign legion are highly trained by the Mandalorians themselves. This training includes demanding physical and psychological training that makes them fit to serve under the Mandalorian banner. In particular she is an expert marksman and hand-to-hand combatant.
Posion Resistance: Athena's Korun blood has a nature resistance to poison, stemming from the race's traditional proximity to toxic seaclouds on Haruun Kal.
Korun Four Pillars: The four virtues of Korun culture are Honor, Duty, Family, Herd. These pillars are a part of Athena's being. They drive her to honor herself, remain loyal to her duties, and to serve and protect the clan. These virtues line up with Mandalorian philosophy, which aids in her integration into that culture.
Force Sensitivity: All Korun are Force-sensitive. Athena's is mostly untrained, though she can utilize a few powers taught her on Haruun Kal.Cavalier: Athena can tend to not fully consider consequences to actions, causing her at times to seem flippant or act with a "ah, what the hell" attitude before jumping into something.
Weaknesses
Sardonic: Athena's cavalier attitude can manifest in sharp sarcasm, from which she gets her nickname "Mir'sheb", which is Mando'a for smart ass. Her often sharp sarcastic humor is rarely appreciated.
She likes the Ne'tra gal: Athena likes her black ale. It is a bad combination with her frequent 'caution to the wind' attiude and smart mouth.
