BIOGRAPHY:
Kai grew up on Iridonia. She had a good life, a loving family. Her father taught her in combat, her mother taught her in philosophy. Jedi philosophy, mainly. Her mother was a jaded Jedi, her father was not force sensitive. As they do when a youngling is discovered to be force sensitive, the Jedi came knocking.
Her mother had long ago been a Jedi. She had truly lived, breathed and believed the Jedi Code. Then she started taking a deeper look at some of the goings on the Jedi were involved with. Unwarranted attacks. Even rumors of genocide. When she dared question a master, she was rebuked. She was told it was Sith propoganda. For a short time, she let the matter rest.
Until she overheard two masters discussing a recent attack the Jedi had made. All Jedi were told it was a taid on a Sith outpost. When the dust settled, not a single Sith was to be found. The outpost was manned with Imperials, and none survived. It was at this moment that her mother left the Jedi Order.
So when the Jedi came to collect, Kai, her mother refused. Said she would raise her daughter herself. To be a true and proper Jedi. To seek wisdom and patience. To follow the Light, let the Will of the Force guide her.
The Jedi left, displeased.
And train her, her mother did. Every lesson was fraught with teachable moments of wisdom and patience. Lightsaber forms? Wisdom and patience. Force powers? Wisdom and patience. The Will of the Force? Yep, wisdom and patience.
At age 15, Kai underwent her Jedi Trials. She struggled mightily. Perhaps, had she had the benefit of an education at the Jedi Academy, she may have fared better. Or perhaps, this is exactly what the Force willed for her. She still ponders on this to present day. Her heart and soul are riddled with many "What ifs".
She failed her first trial 3 times before finally succeeding. All total, it took her 2 years to advance to her mother's satisfaction to Jedi Knight. But on the night she returned triumphant from her final trial, she was struck a savage blow.
The Sith had invaded Iridonia. They needed to collect slaves and resources, yet their real target was Jedi, as always. Kai raced home, her heart pounding. Chest heaving as she gulped in air.
Only to find her home in ruins. Burnt to the ground. On the ground, in front of the smoldering remnants of her home, lay crispy corpses. 5 all total. 3 she did not recognize, probably part of the Sith marauding unit.
The remaining 2, she knew. Intimately. With tears in her eyes, she collapsed to her knees beside the corpses. She reached for something, nearly buried in the debris. 2 somethings actually. Grabbing both items, she jerked them free.
Her mother's twin lightsabers.
She stayed long enough to bury her parents, that same night. While standing over their graves, she made a solemn vow to destroy any and all Sith she came across.
She went back to the house, and pilfered for anything of value. She would need credits to get off world. She had to put distance in between her and her home. To stay would spiral her into a deep depression. No, she needed to actively hunt Sith.
So when she heard tale of a faction, the Ashlan Crusade and their mission to destroy the Sith, she set out to find them.
