Kivah
Zellenkrieger
"Peace is made out of compromise but history is made out of violence"
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Tall and muscular, Kivah is downright amazonian with a wild mane of hair that never seems to behave. She dresses and carries herself like someone who knows they’re trouble and proud of it. Like most Denik-Cathar, she has her tribe's ceremonial tattoos circling her thighs. Runing the leangth of her left forearm's inside is a tattoo of silver-threaded circuitry emenating from a square diamond. A mark designed for her time as a Zero, its an ellusive data tattoo, capable of storing electronic information. Wrapping around the rest of her forearm, is a partial sleeve combining old Sith and traditional Cathar symbology and script.

HISTORY
Kivah grew up in constant competition with her know-it-all sister Shara. After a particularly rough fight, she realized that the best way to keep winning was to simply get stronger. Shara could be sly and clever all she wanted, moving the goalposts and hiding behind words, but she couldn’t pretend to win if she had a bloody nose and Kivah didn’t. Fortunately their parents saw through the fighting and knew the littermates were both starting the trouble and cared for each other as they’d band together whenever in trouble with an outsider.
Young and restless, Kivah took a shuttle away from Cathar believing that home had grown dull. She wasn't looking forward to a small family life or the limited experiences offered by the City Tree and the surrounding jungles and plains. After Coruscant Kivah swung out to the Outter Rim through Canto Bight and the rest of the Corporate sector. There she fell in with a few Zeros as a freelancer and ran through the shadows of the criminal underworld as a cage fighter and muscle for hire, after a time establishing herself in the loose networks of corporate mercenaries and interests. One of these connections pulled her to help the Sith Lord Darth Morta take over Krayiss II for a large payday. While successful, many of the other mercenaries were killed when Domina Prime crashed a series of fighters into the Royal Palace which lead to Kivah recording the fight between the two power houses for excellent pay-per-view sales while also starting her on the path to working as a mercenary for the Sith Order.
After knocking over a corporate transport between black sites with her slicer friend Das for a mysterious Johnson, Kivah finally had saved up the credits and was in a place in her life to find a place of her own. While searching secondhand yards all over the corporate sector for a light freighter or shuttle she liked and could live in, and wasn't too banged up or expensive, she came across an old TIE Reaper. It wasn't what she was looking for, but it was love at first sight. While living out of the small crew space in her new ship, Kivah would make semiregular weekend runs from Etti IV to Cantonica, moving weekend gamblers between the systems alongside the occasional smuggling package. This wasn't making her rich, but it would pay off docking and maintenance fees while building a ship history and letting Kivah make it to the weekend fights in Canto Bight.
During another mercenary job acting as a scout and bruiser for the Sith Order while picking up Force sensitive candidates, Kivah's own latent abilities were discovered. Rather than facing the potential awkwardness of being forced into training, she quickly volunteered for the Kor'ethyr Academy on Korriban. There she passed the trials by killing a Tuk'ata to become a full-fledged Acolyte. She's learned a lot there, made a few friends, and ticked off a few people with her sharp tongue. Still, she tries to get away from time-to-time, taking the privileges she can in the nearby city of Vardin or slipping off to her old haunts in the Corporate Sector Authority.
