Kaiva Rowe
Character
KAIVA ROWE
Age: 25
Species: Zeltron
Gender: Female
Height: 170 cm
Weight: 59 kg
Force Sensitive: Yes
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Kaiva Rowe is unmistakably Zeltron, though she lacks the flamboyance commonly associated with her species. Her skin is a soft rose-crimson, warm rather than vivid, subtle enough that she can pass for near-human in low light or at a distance. Her features are clean and composed, rarely betraying strong emotion.
Her hair is pale silver-blonde, cut in a short, layered style that falls just past her jawline. It is usually worn loose or tucked behind one ear, deliberately low-maintenance and practical. She avoids ornamentation entirely and does not style herself for attention.
Her eyes are a muted amber-gold, observant and steady. They linger on people slightly longer than is comfortable, not to intimidate but to assess. Her posture is relaxed and unassuming, suggesting someone accustomed to blending into professional environments rather than dominating them.
Kaiva dresses in tailored civilian clothing designed for mobility and discretion — fitted jackets, reinforced trousers, neutral boots, and durable fabrics in muted tones such as slate, ash, deep blue, and gray. She avoids traditional Sith attire entirely. Nothing she wears is ceremonial; everything has a purpose.
INVENTORY
Civilian clothing suitable for travel and covert operations
Concealed comlink with encrypted channels
Compact datapad for operational planning and record-keeping
Holdout blaster (used sparingly, secondary to the Force)
Utility belt with minimal survival and restraint tools
Access to Kainite logistical support when assigned
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
Kaiva is calm, observant, and decisively pragmatic. She speaks plainly, listens carefully, and rarely explains herself unless doing so serves a purpose. To her, emotion is information — something to be managed and applied, not indulged.
She does not revere the Dark Side or Sith tradition. She uses power because it is effective. Ideology, ritual, and legacy are meaningless to her unless they produce results. She believes power exists to achieve goals — nothing more and nothing less.
Kaiva is not cruel for cruelty's sake, nor is she merciful out of principle. She chooses whichever option resolves a situation with the least resistance and the greatest long-term advantage. Loyalty, to her, is transactional and conditional.
She does not fear the Force. She simply refuses to romanticize it.
STRENGTHS
Operational Efficiency
Kaiva excels at resolving problems quickly and cleanly. She adapts plans mid-execution without hesitation and abandons failing approaches without ego.
Emotional Exploitation
Her Zeltron heritage and Force sensitivity allow her to read emotional states with precision. She identifies fear, desire, hesitation, and attachment and applies pressure where it will be most effective.
Decisive Action
Once she commits to a course of action, Kaiva does not hesitate. This makes her dangerous in fast-moving or unstable situations.
WEAKNESSES
Transactional Relationships
Kaiva views people as assets or obstacles rather than emotional bonds. This limits genuine loyalty and leaves her vulnerable to betrayal she does not emotionally anticipate.
Short-Term Focus
She prioritizes immediate objectives over long-term consequences, sometimes destabilizing situations she may later have to deal with again.
Dismissal of Ideology
Because she undervalues belief systems, she can underestimate opponents who are willing to sacrifice everything for an idea.
HISTORY
Kaiva Rowe was born on Zeltros, raised in a culture that celebrated emotional openness, indulgence, and social harmony. From an early age, she learned to read emotional currents and social dynamics with ease. Where others found pleasure in this exchange, Kaiva found patterns and predictability.
Her Force sensitivity sharpened this awareness, allowing her to sense moods and intentions before they were spoken. On Zeltros, this made her adept — but also increasingly disconnected. The culture discouraged ambition that disrupted harmony, and Kaiva recognized that remaining there would teach her how to exist comfortably, not how to advance.
At seventeen, she left Zeltros quietly and without ceremony.
Within a year, she came to the attention of Darth Velkan, a pragmatic Sith who valued efficiency over ideology. He trained her not through ritual or doctrine, but through application — applied Force use, psychological leverage, and operational discipline. She was tested through real-world objectives rather than duels, advancing because she delivered results.
Over several years, Kaiva outgrew supervision. By twenty-four, she no longer required instruction, and her master withdrew rather than confront her. At twenty-five, she was elevated to Sith Knight, released from direct apprenticeship without ceremony. Darth Velkan remains alive, distant, and observant.
Following her promotion, Kaiva's methods drew the attention of the Kainite. She was not recruited on the basis of ideology, but identified by results. She now operates as a deniable, independent asset — aligned with the Kainite because they are effective, not because she believes in their cause.
Kaiva Rowe is a Sith not because she worships power, but because it works.
FORCE SKILLS
Kaiva's relationship with the Force is utilitarian. She does not explore abilities for mastery or expression — only for effectiveness.
Telekinesis (Focused Application)
She uses telekinesis in short, controlled bursts rather than sweeping displays, favoring restraint, disarming motions, sudden directional force, or environmental manipulation to end confrontations quickly.
Force Suppression / Intimidation
Kaiva can apply subtle Force pressure to destabilize opponents emotionally and mentally, inducing hesitation, fear, or submission without theatrical domination.
Emotional Sensing
Enhanced by her Zeltron heritage, she reads emotional states with precision. Fear, resolve, hesitation, and deception are often apparent before words confirm them.
Limited Shatterpoint Awareness (Situational)
Under pressure or instability, Kaiva may perceive structural weaknesses in people, organizations, or unfolding situations — moments where precise action can collapse a larger system. These insights are contextual, mentally taxing, and unreliable if circumstances shift. She does not consciously invoke or name this ability.
NON-FORCE SPECIALIZATIONS
Operational Planning
Kaiva breaks complex problems into executable objectives, plans contingencies, and adapts rapidly when conditions change.
Psychological Leverage
She understands how individuals and systems break. Kaiva knows when to apply pressure, when to withhold it, and when silence is more effective than threat.
Negotiation & Coercive Diplomacy
She operates comfortably in corporate, diplomatic, and professional environments, using timing, framing, and implication rather than overt intimidation.
Infiltration & Discretion
Kaiva favors blending over confrontation, moving through neutral and hostile spaces without drawing attention.
Adaptive Combat Survival
While not a dedicated warrior, she is skilled at surviving hostile encounters through positioning, disengagement, and decisive resolution rather than prolonged combat.
