- "[Eloise] said the quiet part out loud." - Connel Vanagor
- "You know Eloise Dinn by any chance? If so, I don't think I have to describe her. She's not afraid to... be herself, if y'know what I mean." - Diogo Talon
- "What do I even find attractive? Confidence, I guess. Someone with their own goals and drive. Eloise actually fits that pretty well, but I'm definitely not into her. There's just too much conflict in her personality—it feels more repulsive than anything else." - Braze
- "She wasn't sure if the trash talk was something Eloise got from her, or if it had always been ingrained in her spitfire DNA." - Amani Serys
- "...she silently appreciated Eloise's ability to remain calm under pressure." - Amani Serys-Organa
- "You put up a tough exterior, but I know you feel deeply, and when things hurt you, they really fethin' hurt you." - Diogo Talon to Eloise
- "Resh had almost exclusively heard from their peers that Eloise was... abrasive. And frankly, she didn't really dispel that notion from most of the times she saw him interacting with the others. But she had always been pretty lax with him. Perhaps it was his background, or just the fact that he seemed to hold no judgement over her. Either way, they both seemed to be one another's only true friends in the Order. Eloise because of her aforementioned attitude, and Resh either because of his shyness or his species." - Resh
- "Honestly, Eloise pushes people away, and when you do that... it's hard for anyone to really want to get to know her. If anything, I think she's the one judging herself too harshly. And maybe others, too." - Vera Noble
- "[Eloise] was tall and powerfully built... [she wielded her lightsaber] in such a way that hinted at equal parts aggression and contained fury, her stance betraying a belligerence that matched the violence of her entrance. This one was a warrior, confident, poised, and aggressive." - Ellissanthia
- "[Eloise] was a brute, a barbarian. But exploitable. Young. Inexperienced. But still dangerous." - Jace Rhane
- "[Eloise] clearly was going to do great things. Whatever it was, he hoped it would save lives. Maybe even not get herself killed in the process. That would be the best of both worlds." - Jasper Kai'el

THE STORY SO FAR
Italicized text is pre-roleplay history; normal text summarizes events which occurred in threads.
Eloise and her twin brother Marcus were born shortly after the fall of the Sith Eternal, a short-lived faction their parents had been low-ranking members of. Their father, Arcturus Dinn, went missing before their mother, Ishani Sibwarra, discovered she was pregnant. Ishani attempted to care for her children, relying heavily on her wealthy parents for support, but she was young, troubled, and unprepared for motherhood.
When the twins were four years old, their father suddenly reappeared. The circumstances of his return were less than happy. Trapped in the Netherworld due to a curse, Arcturus didn't even know his children existed and fell into a deep depression at the news. As he ran away from his problems, Ishani chased after him, leaving the twins with her parents like usual. Not long after she was reported deceased on Tython, killed during a battle against the Maw.
Eloise spent the next three years of her life on Chaldea, where she and her brother lived with their loving, if strict, grandparents. That is, until Ishani and Arcturus returned. Mom was back from the dead and Dad was back from the Nether. Having reconciled their relationship and gotten engaged, they wanted to take the twins with them to build a new life together. At the time, Eloise didn't understand why Grandpa and Grandma were so reluctant to let them go. After a tense confrontation, a deal was struck and the children were turned over to their parents, who immediately whisked them away to the distant planet of Zaathru. There they were raised in the lap of luxury, surrounded by primitive natives who believed the Force Sensitive family to be gods incarnate. Eloise was told she was the personification of the moon goddess Damara, the Queen of the Night. She liked the sound of that, but to her child's mind it was all just a game of make-believe. Deep down she knew she wasn't really a goddess or a queen.
As she grew older, Eloise began to understand just how destructive the game of godhood could be. In addition to righteous crusades against slavers and raiders, her parents went to war with other "deities" in the Pantheon of Zaathru, laying waste to whole cities, slaughtering thousands, and eradicating any culture which didn't fit into their mythology. She watched her younger siblings fall prey to delusions of grandeur, utterly convinced that they were divine.
And then, she discovered an unthinkable secret about her parents. She rushed to her twin brother, who had always been her friend and confidant, and told him of what she had seen. To her horror, she learned that Marcus had known of it all along, yet had done nothing. He had simply played along. Ashamed and disgusted with her family, Eloise ran away from home.
With her Zaathrian ways and the isolation she grew up in, she found the galaxy a strange and alienating place. She joined the Jedi Order in hopes of fighting the Sith, but to her surprise she was assigned to the Chief Healer,
Amani Serys
, becoming her apprentice. Among her peers, she made more enemies than friends. A brief but passionate romance with fellow Padawan Diogo Talon ended abruptly when her lover disappeared, leaving Eloise heartbroken and alone. Since then she has buried herself in her work, utterly focused on reaching the next level of her training. Knighthood awaits...
