STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
LOGICAL INTELLIGENCE: Tionne was graced with cognitive capacity a few could match. She has profound understanding of science, logic, mathematics and learns new languages with great ease. This has enabled her to earn advanced degrees in several fields, including biology and physics at a very young age.
VERSED SCIENTIST: Working knowledge of quantum mechanics, xenobiology and other fields most find mind boggling. She understands nature of matter to the verge of metaphysical.
LACK OF PHYSICAL STRENGTH: Tionne's frail physique is a great disadvantage in combat, especially when her Soresu is superimposed by a Djem So practitioner. She can hold her own, but not for long.
SURVIVOR MENTALITY: You will not see Tionne winning any lightsaber battles. She is simply not the conquerer type.
GENERAL DISTRUST: Tionne does not trust anyone, but especially distrusts politicians and even members of her own Order. For that very reason, she likes to keep to herself and avoids making friends.She believes social contact pursued from personal reasons is a liability.
VERY FAIR SKIN: Thanewulf has such fair complexion she needs to wear long sleeves most of the time, to avoid sunburns on most planets in the galaxy.
HIDDEN EMPEROR COMPLEX: In the very depths of Tionne's being lies the benevolent dictator. Given opporutnity, she would cease power and become a despot. Politics is Thanewulf's hidden passion, especially as she finds out that the assets she's been dealt in cosmic game assures her a fair advantage.
APPEARANCE:
Slender and gracious are adjectives best describing Tionne's physique; there is only so much muscle that can be generated through rigorous physical exercies if you carry Hapan genes. Her long ginger hair is usually worn in a braid, while the garb she wears heavily depends on the role she is playing as part of her mission. When not on duty, Tionne opts for scruffy look often sported by smugglers; a cotton tank top, utility belt, leather jacket, worn out form-fitting pants and boots with buckles - preferably all in earthy tones. As she gains importance and rank, spacer's suits make way for simple, albeit effective dresses which mimick high fashion from the waning years of the Old Republic. If a need arises, Tionne dresses in the most provocative clothes imaginable, to maim, allure and deceive.
As Tionne assumes the identity of Matier, her clothing preferences change. She now opts for black dresses adorned with lavish accessories, jewellry and embelishments that add class to her style. She becomes vain and complacent, often spending time looking at herself in the mirror.
BIOGRAPHY:
Tionne was born on Coruscant as only child to Harald Thanewulf, a university professor of xenobiology, and Wesma, a Hapan mathematician. During her early childhood, Tionne was labeled as child prodigy due to her amazing ability to absorb and systematize knowledge. Her parents encouraged this by enrolling her into school at age of three; by the time she was thirteen, she had already earned a double degree from University of Coruscant. In order to celebrate her graduation, Harald took his wife and daughter on vacation to Hologram Fun World in Phelleem sector. But the Thanewulf family never made it there....
Somehow, Tionne ended up on jungle moon of Va'art, thousands of light years away, wearing nothing but underwear and having no memories past falling asleep on her mother's shoulder while her father was piloting their ship towards Phelleem sector along the Triellus trade route. She woke up atop a web woven by taozin, a Force-sensitive creature thought to be extinct. The creatures surrounded her, but instead of injecting her with digestive juices and devouring her, they started to communicate in a way Tionne was never taught, but understood nonetheless. It was the first time she experienced the Force. Through very rudimentary exchange of information, taozin managed to relay Tionne had somehow "fallen from the sky". None of this made any sense to the teenager; why was she here, where were her parents? She tried to use logic to explain this peculiar incident, but failed. Instead, she concentrated on trying to survive on this lush jungle world and keep herself sane in ultimate solitude.
A year passed before Tionne's Force signature was picked up by a wandering Jedi Watchman, the Kiffar Demitri Drahmin. The Watchman saved Tionne and interpreted her stranding as the will of the Force, but the Coruscanti never really believed it.
Tionne was taken infront of the Jedi Council, but was deemed too old for classic training. Instead, the Council allowed off-world training where Thanewulf was to become a Jedi Watchman herself. For almost a decade, Tionne travelled the galaxy with her Master, learning how to pretend not to be a Jedi during daytime and honing her Force powers during the night. Despite not being brought up in the Temple and not receiving orthodox instruction, Tionne did well in her trials and was Knighted on the eve of her 24th birthday.
Thanewulf served the Republic as de facto eyes and ears of the Jedi Order, often taking part in recon missions aimed at unveiling criminal activities, political influence or tracking Dark side activity across the galaxy. Subsequently, she would report directly to the Council. Back in the day, the Council was especially interested in Ruusan principality, a gloomy and mysterious force with an intention that eluded them. Tionne was tracking a dark Jedi presence under the name Alen Na'Varro when her cover was exposed. Alen launched a widescale hunt and after several weeks of furious pursuit, he manaed to corner Tionne. Instead of killing her, he froze her solid in carbonite, perhaps to transport her to Dark Jedi. As her captor fell through the wormhole and ended up almost a millenium into the future, the whereabouts of Tionne's carbonite block remain known to Alan Na'Varro solely...
Tionne was found by Jedi of Galactic Republic, who thawed her and brought her to Ossus. Disappointed by Republic's lack of offense against the Sith, Tionne left the Republic after battle of Geonosis. She roamed the galaxy for several months before being recruited in the Galactic Alliance by Coren Starchaser.
Tionne emerged as a key negotiator in the attempt to form the Anti-Sith league, an offensive front who's main mission was to drive out One Sith from the Galactic Core.
Tionne disappeared during a scouting mission near Kessel, her ship stuck in the gravitational field of The Maw. Once she was done escaping the clutch of binary black holes, Thanewulf returned to the Sullust only to find out Coren Starchaser and much of the leadership had vanished, leaving the Alliance in shambles. She then went into hiding, contacting Siobhan Kerrigan, her only true friend among the stars...
FORCE POWERS:
Matier has lost all of her Force powers, but gained one - Force Vision to become
Aperion is basically the fabric of space-time, an aspect of the Unifying Force. It allows her to percieve the universe in five dimensions. In other words, Matier is able to see different alternate universes, where events unfold differently depending on actions of individuals. She is also able to identify singularities, which are events that unfold in all permissible universes and cannot be influenced by actions of conscious individuals. A person can disclose their intent to Matier and ask her what future lies ahead if he/she was to take a certain action. But not all individuals are that important for the fate of the universe; the more central a character is, the higher the uncertainty of the vision, since repercussions of individual actions matter more for those of higher importance. An outcome of an invasion will not only depend on what the offending side does, but also on the actions of the defending side. Effectively, all who seek council with Matier take part in a probabilistic game of chess played on multilevel boards.
Consulting Matier is a way around meta-gaming. Your character may find out private information RPed elsewhere on the board.
Some restrictions:
Matier cannot see outcomes for herself, due to a frame of reference problem
Matier does not intervene
Matier does not willingfully disclose information on other individuals and their intentions(although you may try to force it out of her)
Matier's prophecies are only correct ex-post, when the events unfold
SHIP:
Soon™
LIGHTSABER FORMS:
Matier wields no lightsaber and does not engage in lightsaber duels.
KILLS:
Matier has alloted her kill plaquette slots on Chaos Wall of Fame to [member="Darth Vornskr"]. He needed them.
BOUNTIES COLLECTED:
It is in everybody's best interest to keep Matier alive.
