Ivy Maro emerged in the year 900 ABY. A new name for a new life, after a devastating romantic heartbreak tore her from her first, leaving her past and family behind to find herself and something more, as a Jedi. In addition to the military, Ivy is partnered with several local law enforcement and private research and science groups. Just about your average Jedi of all trades who can get the job done in a pinch. Getting it done right, however, is debatable.
A petite 5-foot, 90-pound bundle of winsomeness, often teased for being "too nice" or "too friendly" for her own good, nicknamed "Sunshine" for her bubbly outgoing persona. Ivy enjoys the freedom of expression and independence the path of a Jedi Sentinel has given her, helping others in a more practical way while keeping herself grounded in the struggles of ordinary citizens. Beneath Ivy’s thin social mask is a stark serious and calculated side, her heart extremely guarded against a morally corrupt galaxy. Weariness and resentment of life ooze out as an “easygoing” lackadaisical attitude towards her work and other people. She’s smarter and more caring than she lets on, but playing dumb is often her way of shirking any unwanted attention and responsibility off her shoulders.
Her ears are slightly pointed, the only remnant of Ivy's non-Human lineage. Greenish hazel eyes and a freckled, tan complexion. Premature silver streaks her otherwise dark brown, wavy hair that falls to her middle back.
Her personal gear includes a couple of blaster pistols and knives, and a vambrace worn on her left arm that functions as a comlink and personal combat shield.
Her lightsaber blade is an unusual black core. Once an ordinary blue kyber crystal, so great was Ivy's sorrow and depression during her trials as a Jedi Initiate, working through past trauma, that the heart of her crystal turned black, reflecting the dark, empty and chaotic hole inside her from grief. The crystal bears the scars for her, a reminder of Ivy's former life, reborn from darkness into light, to the Jedi she is today.
Well, maybe a toe in the darkness still. Trakata is her speciality, honor be damned.
