.:: Personality
At first glance, Shana Draclau aka Lexis Ferran to anyone but those close to her, is your average missunderstood girl that doesn't get with social norms. She doesn't like new people, in fact, they scare her. And even worse than that, she's terrified of being touched by those she doesn't trust - mostly due to the fact that she was nearly raped as a girl but also because it's buried somewhere deep in her DNA structure, compliments of Seth. Forced to grow up on her streets, with mostly either those that hurt her or abandoned her, Shana quickly learned not to trust anyone but a select few. And those have all, one way or another proved themselves to be worthy of her trust. Everyone else, she could be remorseless towards.
Once upon a time, the queen of a tantrums, the young clone has gone a long way from then and into the woman she is now. Back then, she trusted only one man - her brother, and screamed through the Force whenever anyone tried to do anything against her will, even reach out and pat her on the shoulder. She literally hated everyone but Seth and herself back then. Today, she fears them, wants nothing to do with them beyond the basic self-entertainment, if they can provide them. It's not to say that she won't socialize with people but it's all minimum interaction for the most part. By choice, inner preservation and all her phobias, Lexis will avoid getting to know people all together.
Suffering from a number of disorders, of which only a single one was ever diagnosed while she was still in social care, Shana is incredibly resourceful. While she will never admit it, she knows her flaws quite well and works with them. There are times when she will appear completely normal while at others, she will be all over the walls and nobody but perhaps her brother could really bring her back then.
Among her many disorders, Shana suffers from multiple personalities. Which you will never tell because they blend into her rather well. The best representation of them is as two voices in her head. They are the voices of her former self, the first and second version of Shana. The first one is a child, with her heavy tantrums and obsessive love for her brother, refusing to accept anything that isn't Seth-norm. The other one, while not that much older, is far more tamed than than the first one due to her maker's fiddling with her DNA and personality before she came to life. She is the wiser of the three, educated, well-mannered. While the tantrum-girl with Seth adoration still exists in her, she is far more controlled and disciplined. Why the two former selves of Shana merged into the latest one is unclear but they're always there, part of her. While they often won't tell her much of who she was before she was herself, they're always the extra advice or ideas in her head. At last, there is the girl who called herself Lexis Ferran. Among all three, she is the one that is anxious, bold, illiterate, reckless, withdraw, tactless and unpredictable. Even without her multiple personalities, she is the trigger happy sister, the one that will shoot out an entire magazine before asking any questions, all for the simple reason of protection or self-preservation.
Of all the people she had ever met in her life, Shana would die for three - Seth, Ferran and the old Judge. Each of the three men represent something in her life which she was meant to have but due to her life and personality never experienced. Seth is family, her brother. Ferran is the first crush she ever had and would have probably grown to love him fiercely if given the chance. And the old Judge is the father she never got to have growing up.
PERSONAL CONNECTIONS:
-- Seth Draclau {Unity; Best Part of Me; If You Only Knew} Shana was once the near perfect female version of Seth Draclau. In her first version, she saw only Seth, detested most others, including her own maker. Her loyalties always laid with her brother, no matter what version she was in, no matter how altered she was. One could argue her loyalties to him were always as strong due to the way Seth is, loyal to himself first and foremost. Growing up, she wanted nothing more but to make sure her big brother was never alone. Even though he worked quite well as he was, she still wanted him to find someone in his life, discover love and have someone beside him, even when she barely understood what it even meant. Due to the fact that Lexis Ferran knows nothing of he past lives or her first four years of life, she does not know the loyalty Shana had. There is a possibility, it it merely hidden inside her, waiting for the day when she could unleash it but that it still a subject in question of which Lexis knows nothing about.
-- Xander Starkiller {I'm Alive} To put it in simplest of terms, Shana has no real father but if someone could be considered as such, it would be Xander Starkiller as her maker. She shares no genetic combination with him and in her original version could not stand the sight of him. There was no explanation for this but whatever the reason was, none would learn. The only time she would even show him any kind of respect was on her dying day when she pleaded with him to fix what was wrong with her and make her better, to clone her. The second version was however different. Due to Xander's manipulations, she became far more force sensitive which was something he would work on. Whether it was the manipulation itself or her early training, but Shana's loyalties presented themselves to Xander as well. The second version always referred to her maker as master and showed him much respect as a good apprentice should to her master. It's always Xander Starkiller to whom Shana pleads for her life, makes her requests to live again. Though she loves her big brother very much, she's always been smart enough to know her life is in her maker's hands, no matter what. Despite not knowing anything in her past lives or her first years in this one, Lexis remembers Xander's voice and something he said that has kept her going through life, even though she doesn't know yet whom the voice belongs to and to what it refers to.
-- Ferran {Unbreak my Heart; Hero; Somebody's Me} The first person to actually notice her for whom she was and not expect her to be anything else, let along give her a name when she had non, Lexis formed an honest bond with him. He was the first to teach her something and it turned out just right for her. Expect stealing, Ferran also earned money by singing in crappy clubs for low pay. Having heard young Lexie quietly sing herself to sleep a few times, he took the time to help her develop her singing, even to the point where they did a duet once in one of the clubs. The first time she would ever experience the feeling of being abandoned by someone was when Ferran disappeared. She had no idea where he went and would she never find him again. And she looked for a very long time. Now Ferran is nothing but a memory in her life. But in a way, carrying the last name based on his first, she feels she is somehow honoring him for his friendship. As the years progressed, Lex realized she had developed a sort of crush for him and sometimes, she likes to imagine and he's still around, by her side, looking after her, making sure she's alright which is something she's never shared with anybody. She still hopes he'll come back to her some day.
-- Old Judge {} Though many people have passed through Lex's life through the years, one person other then Ferran she could count as being worthy of sticking around. It was the very judge that saw through the lie of her almost rapist and believing her then giving her enough trust to set her free once she had been caught shoplifting. The man gave her a place she could always come back to and be treated right. He never asked or demanded anything from her until she entered her mature years, though that was more like an advice then an actual request. She respects him enough never to steal from him and spending time with his family gives her a chance to get a feel of family really looks like.
-- Jack Satriani {How Do I Deal} The Assassin that had to get away from the authorities ran into Lexis by accident, pretty much. Since the police was looking for one man, with her at his side, they passed for a couple and moved on their way. Instead of ending it there though, Lexis went with him. They connected pretty easily and before the night was over, she made her first kill - a gangster that appeared like he was going to kill Jack. After that, she stayed with him longer than the night and he would become a friend and a mentor, gifting her with one of his modified slugthrowers - the one she used to kill the gangster and later teach her how to use it in the shooting range. When she got together with Seth, her brother would tease her about Jack, calling him her boyfriend which didn't work well with Lexis. While she really did like the Assassin, she was very bad at any kind of relationships, even most innocent ones.
-- Curupira Hawk {Run This Town} Lexis and Cura didn't start of well. Many years from now, Cura would visit Seth on Coruscant and that was where the two met. With a bad choice of words from her brother, Lexis understood that she was her replacement because when the redhead left, he was lonely and made her some time after. But the inicial dislike wasn't for long as the two found to have a lot in common and Cura would become the first female friend Lexis actually had. They would go on to adventures together, both satisfying their thurst for havoc and entertainment. One time, they even got together and used her brother's funds to take prisoners in an abandoned asylum. Many people, including Seth, would wake up in the abandoned facility with small hints and clues on how to get out. All the while none of them knew that the two people behnd the camera screens were actually Lexis and Curupira.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
(+) High Key Notes/Force Scream: A natural born skill, enhanced by the use of Force Scream, Lex's scream will shatter glass and probably damage ear drums if people don't take cover. However, for her to use this, she has to be provoked.
(+) Genius level Intellect: A modified clone of Seth Draclau, Shana inherited her brother's intelligence which mostly manifests in her quick thinking on her feet and ability to get out of situation. While she possesses other talents, she often will not show all of them to talents. Its none of their business, in her opinion.
(+) Enhanced Agility/Force Speed: Naturally agile, Lexis have always used the skill to run away and get away from anyone would want to catch her. Her skill and Force Sensitivity having been realized by a friend, Ferran, when she was a child and began to harness her the skill without going too deep into what the Force was.
(+) Singing and playing instruments: As a child, he would sing herself to sleep and Ferran, having been a good singer and guitar player began to sing with her. When they required money and felt like it, they would sing in backwater clubs and earn some money to keep them going. Abandoned by Ferran, she continued singing mostly to herself, memorizing lyrics that she made up and playing on his guitar. Though if she did sing for money, it was usually in a parks where there wasn't too many people.
(+/-) Multiple Personalities: Lexis suffers from multiple personality though not in the most common of ways. She has voices in her mind, echoes of her former selves, bthe other two versions of Shana. While it can cause problems at times, truth is Lexis is never alone thanks to them and both serve a different person. First Shana thinks like Seth the most, the second one knows a lot more than first Shana and Lexis combined. They will occasional speak through Lexis but she is always aware of this. There is also a slight difference in her voice when it happens, depending on which one is talking.
(+/-) Shapeshifting: Half Shi'ido, Lexis can shape shift into woman or man of the human or near-human species. However, with her life story, her training has been halted twice in the past and thus her advancement in this is weaker than it should be at her age. At this point, Lexis can change hair color, eye color and skin color at this point and hold two out of three together for a while.
(+/-) Telepathy: As a trait of her Shi'ido genetics, Lexis has a natural gift of telepathy which has the potential of growing due to her potential with the Force. There is also potential of identifying other Shi'ido even in their change form and eventually developing such a mind barrier that would prevent all sorts of intrusions to the mind. However, this is a skill Lexis isn't fully aware of yet and hasn't truly developed.
(-) Illiterate: Being on the streets for so long, with short periods of time with other people, Lexis was never taught to read and write by anyone. She also never spoke about it, not trusting anybody enough to trust them until she met an Assassin she would call a friend. He'd help her some, teaching her a few symbols but the lessons didn't get too far.
(-) Character Flaws: Anxious, Arrogant, Blunt, Bold, Childish, Complex, Deranged, Egotistical, Erratic, Fanaticism, Fierce, Finicky, Fixation, Hard, Illiterate, Impatient, Infamy, Intolerant, Immature, Murderer, Naive, Obsessive, Overambitious, Overprotective, Overzealous, Paranoid, Peevish, Perfectionist, Proud, Rebellious, Reckless, Skeptic, Soft-hearted (to a few), Stubborn, Tactless, Temperamental, Unpredictable, Vain, Withdrawn
(-) Disorders: Antisocial Personality Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder), Impulse Control Disorder, Intermittent Explosive Disorder, Kleptomania, Mania Episodes, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)

PERSONAL ITEMS:
-- Ferran's Guitar - The first thin Lexis owned in her life was the guitar originally owned by Ferran that he left behind when he disappearing, leaving her mind. While with her, he taught her how to play it, telling her to use music to express herself when she ddn't feel like actually talking to others about her problems. She's spent a lot of times with it, simply thinking up lyrics that remained in her mind as she never learned to read or write. Musically, she has enough knowledge to work out songs, pass on what she needs from other instrument players but she can't write the lyrics or notes. When she's not taking it with her, the guitar is save in her storage space.
-- Backpacks and clothes - Among the things she's acquired of the years, whether through stealing actual things or buying with the money she's nicked from people, Lexis always has a number of clothes, backpacks and bags which were always nicely kept in her storage unit, taking only a thing of two when she was on the move. What most people never expect from a homeless person, she's an extremely neat person over the things she owns, and for the small space she does keep and pay for, everything within those walls is in absolutely perfect order.
-- Jack's slugthrower - On the first day with Jack, Lexis received a couple of things from him, including his slugthrower along with an extra magazine. She used it first to kill a man intending to kill her new friend and later in the shooting range but unlike most things she owns, this is something that is always with her.
-- Holo-videos - When Lexis one time visited Seth, she confessed to him about having voice in her head. Thanks to him, she learned that the voices were actually versions one and two of herself and that for unknown reasons, they managed to stick around in her mind this whole time. He also presented her with a box filled with holo-videos of her former-selves which she would at a later time begin to watch and then re-watch many times over. Seeing them helped her understand a great deal about the girls and oddly enough, it made them closer than they were before. She also realized just how rich of a history she actually had. Ever since then,s he's always taken her recordings with her, even when she traveled to the past.
.:: Appearance
Born with the genetic signature of the Sith Master Malice Draclau and the Princess of Nagi Melina Maer, Shana is half Shi'ido and half Nagi, which showed in her appearance in her original form. Barely having managed to reach the age of five, she had the pale skin, freckles, dull gray eyes and jet black hair much like her genetic twin Seth Draclau, also her cloning source.Having been re-born the second time after he first body died due to an allergic reaction to materials in the Starkiller Industries, her second body seemed the same as the first one, expect she had slowly began to learn the shapeshifting abilities of her Shi'ido race. However, she only reached the point of changing her skin color which allowed her to blend in.
Third time around, her maker, Xander manipulated with her genetic structure, allowing her to have pale human skin, brown eyes and brown hair. She now stands at five feet and two and a half inches, with hundred and eleven pounds. Her long brown hair is all the way up to the end of the back though it doesn't always appear so due to her constantly changing styles and hairdos, mostly depending on her mood or whatever she sees on the street. Having began re-learning her shapeshifting abilities, Lexis can change her eye color and skin tone though she usually doesn't use any of it, currently working on achieving the form to which she was originally born and to which Seth was born to as well.
While there is no specific fashion style in what Lexis wears and she steals just about anything, she usually wears down, in order to blend in. A lot of the things she owns shows of her age rather that standing out in the crowd. However, having traveled back in time, she managed to take only a handful of items.
.:: Historical Data
BIOGRAPHY:Version one
Over three decades ago, as Seth Draclau and Xander Starkiller met, the two formed a business relationship that would benefit both parties for years and years to come. Xander was already a self-proclaimed Sith Lord and quite able in many abilities, including the ability to clone. Though shapeshifter himself and a Sith Knight, Seth did not know this ability and it made the young man curious. So he proposed a project for Xander – make him a clone of himself, a in female clone with slightly altered options. Thus, Xander Starkiller would clone him an infant girl who was practically identical to Seth in every way, except in her gender.From the very beginning, Shana was unnaturally loyal to Seth, however could not stand the sight of Xander Starkiller. Whatever the reason was for this, no one could tell and she would never live long enough to understand it herself.
At the age of one, the young girl walked and mimicked talk though she could not understand it fully. By the age of four, she clearly showed a genius level much like Seth. But even more, a perfectionist strike. No drawing she did was to be seen before she was satisfied with it, no ability was shared with others before she was sure of herself. She demanded perfect from everyone around her.
If her outfits were folded right, she would scream insanely; when anyone tried to touch her and she was not sure their hands were utterly clean, she would throw things at them. Much like Seth, she loved to hear her little voice but it was most heard by her brother. She liked to talk to him. There were even times when no one could really tell when one finished and the other began. And yet they understood each other perfectly.
However, there was one thing that was very curious about the little one from the very beginning. Like Seth, Shana was born with pale skin, dark gray freckles and dull gray eyes. However, unlike him, Shana loved the way she was. Even if her big brother always preferred to look human and keep others from seeing how he really was, this was not the case with the little one. Yes, she wanted to learn how to change, she would have done everything to be like him on the outside because that was what he wanted for him. But beyond that, she loved the color of her skin, her eyes, even each and every freckle on her face. Many times when it was just the two of them, she beg for him to change to what he really looked like, just so she could see him for he really was. To her, that the perfect version of him because it was who he really was.
Upon her fifth birthday, the little girl got sick. Clinical testings showed that she had a disease infants die from and could easy move past, how it had a lot worse effect on Shana. Within months, her condition got worse. No matter what healers tried on her, if she would even let them touch her, or what scientists tried to make her drink, everything failed. She just kept getting worse. Despite her small age, Shana had begun learning some sort of manners and discipline. Most of the time. She still didn’t allow just anyone to lay a hand on her, she insisted upon her drawings even when she was too week to keep her hands still, which ultimately made her perfectionist manner worse. To the end, she was a bitter little creature, angry all the time. She refused to see anyone but her brother, or even speak to anyone else.
But when her last day arrived, she knew it had come. Shana asked for her maker then. When he finally agreed to see her due to their relationship through her life, she had one thing to tell him.
- First Shana in true form
"Don't let me die. Make me better. Fix me. But don't let Seth be alone.
-- Shana pleads with her maker
It was the last thing the little girl said before she took her last breath and closed her eyes, her breathing stopping moments later.
Version two
"Don't let me die. Make me better. Fix me. But don't let Seth be alone.-- Shana's first memory
- Shana in true form
The second version of Shana came a year later. Xander Starkiller put his best efforts, behind Seth's back to make her. He fiddled with her DNA structure far more then he had done so with the first one. He tuned down her temper and need for perfection, made her more open to the world around, terminated the possibility of the disease (or so he believed) and when he had done so much, he wasn't satisfied so he altered her Midi-Chlorian levels to a much higher level then his business partner ever had.
Days before her birth, Xander sent a message to Seth to come see him in the lab. Shana's brother came just in time to be there for her birth and was suddenly enraged by what had been done. He had not wanted for another Shana, not after what had happened to the last one. Xander Starkiller however managed to settle his mind at ease, ensuring him that this version would be different.
- Shana learns how to change her skin color
Shana would grow up within the Starkiller Industries facility. There she would be visited by a tutor from an early age. Seth chose to believe Xander and made sure this one would be prepared for the world beyond those walls. However, Xander had other plans for her as well.
- Shana when Seth came to visit her
Secretly, he began to train her to make a Sith out of her. She responded quite well to his training, focused the left over perfection on it. She always wanted more lessons, always insisted on further training. So much that Xander ended up leaving one of his lightsabers so she could do as she wished. And many times, when anyone came to see her, she would be training, and training. Often to the late hour.
-- Shana gets ready for her training with Xander
Little did either her maker or her brother know through the years of her growing up that her disease hadn't actually been terminated fully but instead began to sneak up on her much slower then in the first version.
- Shana with her then Master, Xander Starkiller
Occasionally, she would show the personality the first version had. She would grow distant sometimes, demand to see Seth, not let anyone near. Not even Xander could reach her in those times. But soon enough, whether Seth came or not, it would go away and it wouldn't show in later periods.
After passing her fifth birthday, which was somewhat a good sign that everything would be alright with her, Shana was free to leave her then residence since it was considered somewhat safer. And as the years moved, she was showing prospect of being a very carefree young lady, wanting to have a good time, talk to people endlessly.
- Visiting Seth on Coruscant
Most of all, she always loved to visit Seth and see him away from the facility itself. It felt more natural not to be within those walls, even if she had never known anything else before it. It was during one such trip that Shana waited, at the age of eight.
- Shana's last tantrum
She was rushed to the healers who did the best they could before she was awake. However, once she did, the girl was clearly up set and calling out for her brother and maker, refusing assistance from strangers. The men tried to assure her they were doing in her best interest but Shana didn't trust them nor did she want to. She wanted nothing to do with them. Just go.
When Xander finally arrived, he butted heads with Seth who insisted his sister stayed in the best hands but Xander kept insisted that she be returned to his facility. When asked what she wanted, Shana easily turned to Xander.
"You promised to make me better. Please, Master, keep your promise."
―Shana to her Master
Even though he had never actually made such a promise to her. Seth finally gave in and she was set back to the SI facilities where she would remain on bed rest while her maker and his scientists tried to find the cause of her illness.For an entire year, they found none, until her maker finally realized where they had to look and there it was – the same thing the first version had, only in a far more advanced stage then anyone could have imagined. By now, it looked like an incurable tumor. Seth was furious again. He was given a promise that the issue was resolved and that Shana would be unharmed by the same thing. But it turned out Shana had always known. It made little sense even to her but she simply knew she would not last for a long time. Still, Xander wouldn't give up on his apprentice and creation so he continued his tests and finally found the cause.
Shana never had a disease within her genes. She had a flaw within them. It was in fact a substance from his own labs that would destroy her eventually. Nobody had seen that coming, not until that moment. He came to her and told her the problem, told her he would not clone her again, not wanting her to go through the same thing.
- Shana begins to weaken
But Shana refused to give up on life. She wanted life. She wanted to grow up. She wanted to be her own person.
"Then you know what you must do, Master. You have to set me free into the world. You have to let me go and let me find my own way back to you and Seth."
―Shana to Xander
So once again, she pleaded. It turned out this version of Shana wasn't the least bit bad. She was loyal and full of life. She wished to live but she also wished to learn again, be Xander's apprentice and be in Seth's life. This time, she wished for her brother to come. And when he finally came, she could barely speak.
-- Shana when she sees her brother for the last time
"Seth.... I love you. I know you didn't want me to come to this world again. But I wished to live. I still wish it. Let me be born again. But set me free so I could live and come back to you."
―Shana to her brother
Seth did not understand, not until she passed on and he came to speak to Xander. He nearly killed him then. Luckily, he did not draw because it was matter to question, whether the Sith Lord would with or the very capable swordsman that Seth was. He agreed then.
Shana would be born again, but this time, she would be set free.
Version three
The Toy House
Missing Years
"It's just destiny, child."
―The girl's first memory
- Little girl in her earliest years, a time she doesn't remember.
The small child slept as her maker looked over her. She was still to small to be set free but he knew the time would come.
Within months from the death of the previous version, the third and final version of Shana was done. Her maker made sure this was an altered version as well. This time, he gave a few slightly different abilities. Actually, he only enhanced them.
-- Young Shana before her entire life changed.
He would not touch her force sensitivity this time around but he would give her a far better agility which he hoped would come in handy one day. He also managed to alter her appearance, though at the time, he did not know how much it would really effect her in her adult age. She was still made to look as a human, but this time with purely brown eyes and hair. Once she was done and born, he invited Seth over and told him the plan. He would give the siblings four years. Four years in which Shana would get to be with her big brother. He did not want to let her spend any more time in the facility, worried that the disease would start to build up again. Seth insisted on taking her with him but her maker would not let him.
He would respect her wishes. She had been through enough pain through her past two lives and this time she needed to get what she wanted – to live. He would not tell his business partner about Shana's altered appearance. And upon her fourth birthday, he would erase her memory but leave little things and alter others. The small child was then left on the streets of Coruscant, not far from an orphanage there, which some clothes, in hope that she would be found and taken in. But this would not be the case.
Cry Your Name
A child with no memories
A small little girl, suspected to have been at least four years old, slept on the streets of the Coruscant. She had no knowledge to whom she was, she had no name to give when asked, and she could not tell whom she belong to. She was just someone without anything.
-- A young girl with no name is found on the streets of Coruscant.
She was five when a first woman saw pity on the sweet little child. For unknown reasons, she was called Janey. At first, she did not respond to it but soon enough she realized they were talking to her. Again, she often did not respond to the name. It didn't feel hers.
The family kept her for an entire year before something got stolen from them. It was easiest to blame to little child that wasn't theirs so she was thrown out and accused for stealing. The little girl had nothing to do with it.
Heart of Mine
-- Ferran, the mysterious man of many talents
The first person to show her actual kindness was a young man by the name of Ferran. He honestly cared for the child without anybody and worked his best efforts to teach her how to read but also to pick pocket. He gave her no name because he felt it would be wrong if he gave her one that didn't belong to her. But he did however, tell her that someday, she would know what name was right for her and she would give it to herself. Brownie, as he called her based on her hair and eyes, showed great talent for pick pocketing.
-- As Brownie, a time in which she was happy and safe.
She was very quick and showed great precision for a seven year old. Ferran looked after her for a couple more years before he suddenly disappeared. She couldn't find him anywhere even though she looked for through all the places he had even taken her to. Her only source of food became stealing. Sometimes, she would get noticed but never caught.
-- Ferran playing his guitar
What became of Ferran, she would never know. There were nights when she dream he would return to her and they would be a team again. And the older she got, she also realized she had grown feelings for him though nobody was there to explain what kind of feelings they were.
-- A more carefree Lexis
Disturbing Behavior
Becoming Lexis Ferran
At the age of ten, another family saw pity on Brownie and took her in. The first thing she noticed upon entering their home was vaze filled with beautiful white flowers. She was right away referred to as Lilly. Apparently, to the family it made sense to call her that since she gave them no name before that. Lilly remained with that family for less ten a year before she noticed a beautiful set of jewerly the woman had. At first, her foster mother showed her what she had so later, when one of the pair of earrings disappeared, Lilly was blamed for them going missing right away.
-- Young Lexis at court
She really did take it, as an almost natural instinct to trade it for food. Once discovered, she tried to return it to her foster family, hoping the problem would go away if she did. It only made it worse. Once they had proof of her doing, they called the authorities on her and the ten year old girl found herself in front of a judge. But when asked what her name was, instead of giving them either of the names her foster families or her friend gave her, she suddenly remembered she liked the name of present foster family's daughter's name so she said her name was Lexis Ferran. The family protested, for reasons unknown to her, insisted her name was no such thing but she was still written down by that name and was sent to juvinal hall for a period of twelve months. Once she finished her sentence, Lexis returned to living on the streets and stealing food.
The case of near rape and a good man
Only a single year passed before Lexis was suddenly in hands of another family. Another one that saw pity on her. It was a man and a woman without any children. They were alright as parents and they treated her right, expect one night when the man entered her room and tried to rape her. Reacting on nothing but instinct, Lexis grabbed an empty glass by her night stand, broke it and made a cut into the man's face.
-- The old judge
The woman would hardly believe her when she told her what happened and Lexis found herself once again before a judge.
This time however, things turned out very differently. The old man listened to what had happened, from both the man that took her in and Lexis and ruled in Lexis's favor. He made it very clear right away that if he was ever to come near the girl again, he would make sure he was locked away for life. Having won at the truth, Lexis was released and went back to living on the streets since again, she had nowhere to go.
No more families and a familiar feeling
After all that had happened with the three families, Lexis had had enough of all the family crap in her life. She was tired of being accepted only to be thrown away, being accused for things she didn't do, constantly being faced by people who cared so little and non for her. So when another family wished to take her in as she turned fifteen, Lexis refused them. Around this time, she began stealing clothes as well. She developed a taste for particular kind and focused on them. She made herself several paces where she would come back and sleep, finally created a pattern in life which she could follow.
As she turned nineteen, once again, she would face court, again with the same judge that had believed her. This time, she was facing a little more serious charge – theft of expensive items. Despite the insisting of the clerk, the old judge would let her off the hook and when it was finished, he invited her to have dinner with him and his family. It was an odd feeling, sitting down at a table with someone who didn't look at her as a liar and thief. Someone who actually wanted to hear what she wanted to say. And as much as it was an odd feeling, Lexis's gut told her she had faced such a feeling before even though she could not remember why it was or from where it originated from. It was probably the first thing, Lexis could say she had a sense of the past.
-- Lexis plays Ferran's guitar
There would be no more families like the ones Lexis had her face for the most part of her life. Though the judge showed her was greatly fond of her and considered her like a granddaughter, he would never even think of trying to convince her to join them though he made it very clear early on that if she wished to be part of his family, all she had to do was ask. But she never did nor would she ever.
Off the Menu
None of it matters anymore
Becoming an adult gave Lexis a different perspective on life. No longer did she have a need for lies and families. No longer did she have the need to belong. She simply wanted to live her life, be what she would be, whatever that was and simply be able to make choices for herself and not by someone else. Her pick pocketing and stealing days were far from over though she would never steal from the old judge or his family. It would probably not be called a sense of loyalty that she had for the old man but she did feel gratitude for how he treated her. Her visitations were far from over but neither was her life style.
Yet, just before he twenty-first birth, it was suggested by the old man that it was time to get a job. Lexis debated for a while what kind of job would she see herself doing and when she could think of non, she simply chose to travel to Nar Shaddaa to see what she could do with the skills she had. She did have many of them, yes, but she did plan on making the old man proud even if it meant only in the fact that she would do something in her life.
Baby, it's You
Dirty Deeds
-- The Assassin Jack Satriani
What was to be one of those usual - steal money, buy food, crash somewhere turned out to be quite different as a man, Jack Satriani appeared out of nowhere and pulled her with him, quietly explaining that he required her to lie. Authorities would come across them and Lexis quickly blended in, pretending to be his date and thus successful avoiding dealing with the men. Willingly led to the man's hideout, Lexis got to know the man and found out he was an assassin. She found herself liking the man quite a bit which was very uncommon for the young thief. A brief conversation interrupted, Jack stashed Lexis into his closet with one of his modified slugthrowers as company arrived and from the darkness, Lexis assumed a gun was being aimed at her newly found friend and she reacted. The man facing a sitting Jack received thirteen slugs in him, an entire magazine emptied and soon fell to the floor where he would lay dead. They got rid of the body together and ordered themselves some food, all the while talking and learning more about each other.
-- Lexis empties her clip into the criminal.
Ready to get to sleep, Lexis found herself unable to fall asleep in silence and asked Jack if they could talk some more. Questions were answered on both ends but when Jack reached out and brushed a lock of her hair, she twitched and pulled back, still effected by an incident from her past. While she didn't take it too bad, she still didn't like being touched, especially not by surprise. The scene didn't escalate, older Shana agreeing he was good and little Shana comparing him to all the men and then two eventually went to sleep.
By morning, Lexis felt bad about her reaction and told Jack about the man that nearly raped her in the past. Why she had been so forward with him, she did not know. It was during breakfast, that the Assassin learned his next target would be on Nar Shaddaa and he invited Lexis to join him. Her acceptance of the invite was what led to her being on the Smuggler's moon and shedding light on just who she really was.
Seth Draclau
Having accepted to go with Jack to Nar Shaddaa, the pair traveled to the Smuggler's Moon together. With everything that had happened between the two, Lexis was slowly coming to trust the Assassin even though she still knew very little of him but that was as much he knew of her as well. Prior to his task being performed, Lexis pick-pocketed a man on the street and suggested to buy them lunch. She was told to pick out a restaurant where they would eat and one good looking place caught her attention even though Lexis could not read the name of the restaurant, a fact she didn't explain to the man.
-- Her brother, Seth Draclau.
However, inside they were welcomed by a menu and Lexis was left with no choice but to confess a secret she had yet to tell anyone - she could not read. So Jack ordered for her and offered to teach her a bit but faith would have other plans for the thief. It was at that same building that a man was dropped from the rooftop. And it was that same man that Jack was ordered to kill. And the very man that had committed the murder would come down to the ground floor shortly after and be drawn to Lexis. As the strange man stared at her, Lexis spoke to him as she felt slightly uncomfortable by the attention. He would soon tell her that he was Seth Draclau and that he was her brother. While at first she didn't believe, the voices in her head knew instantly who it was. And even Lexis, who had never known the feeling of having a brother just knew.
Jack remained skeptic to the newly found knowledge but Lexis was quick to ask Seth to join them for a meal. There, he would show her a picture of herself which Lexis knew to be her despite the pale skin with her freckles intensified and the dull gray eyes and jack black hair. She knew herself. She also remembered a thing or two on her own about Seth's true form but unfortunately, he did not show it to her in public.
Now knowing for sure that Seth had actually found the right person, Lexis asked about who she was. She found out the names of her genetic parents - Malice Draclau and Melina Maer. Their mother was dead and their father was a not-around father. Knowing what she knew now, Lexis felt it natural to tell her brother that she would prefer to think of him as her only family which Seth accepted.
Training with her big brother
Not long after meeting him, Lexis came to visit Seth in his office on Coruscant. There, the two would talk and she would learn more about herself. She learned about the abilities that she had been left in the dark about this whole time and her brother taught her how to shapeshift her eyes. She achieved forgetten talent and then moved on learn about Force Powers. Unknwon to the girl, she had already used them in the past. Her old friend, Ferran, had felt the Force within her but believed she was too young to be burdened with the knowledge so instead, he taught her how to harness skills that would be useful to her survival - Force Speed. But it was with Seth that she would learn what she truly had and learn more Force Powers.
It was also there that Seth became the first person to ever learn of the voice. The subject came about on accident when Lexis said 'we' instead of 'I' and while her brother teased about her friend, the girls kept insisting and she finally told him. It was also the first time they explained that they were her former-selves, locked into her head. Seth figured it out really, the girls just provided clues even though they had never told Lexis any of this, probably because they believed she wasn't ready.
Using telepathy, Seth was able to communicate with the two girls in her head which made the girls incredibly happy. With a four way conversation at place, Lexis learned a lot about her but before the day was over, she receieved a present from Seth - a box filled with recordings of the girls.

Down the Rabbit Hole
What is in a Life...
Lexis arrives to the past. Moved through Nar Shaddaa. Many years in the future, she began to fade away, her hand becoming see-through and her voices beginning to fade away. She didn't understand what was happening but one by one, memories of her past began to disappear for brief periods of time and the notions of something having happened remained but the memory did not. She eventually arrived to the past by unknown means.
On Nar Shaddaa, she ran into a girl who called herself Chloe was was quick to find out that Lexis wasn't just Lexis. And while the two females began to know each other, they were interrupted by a man who fell to his knees at her side and slipped a datapad on her before disappearing again.

All the while, Chloe kept slicing through it and Lexis aiming her weapon at him.
