Miri Nimdok
Dead
STRENGTHS
- Smart: Miri is intelligent and resourceful. Her love of reading has made her knowledgeable on a variety of subjects, particularly history - she's the daughter of a historian, after all.
- Kind Word and a Gun: Miri prefers ranged weaponry, with dual-wielding pistols being her favorite tools of the trade.
- Training: Miri started training with the Jedi at around age eight.
- Persuasive: Miri is half Nagai, granting her an enhanced vocal range and a natural talent for persuasion.
NEUTRALS
- Little Lady: Miri doesn't use profanity, is polite and courteous, and shows an almost absurd amount of respect for others - even if they're trying to kill her, or she them. That said, her patience with those she already considers to be treacherous or malicious can quickly wear thin.
- Loner: Miri spent much of her childhood moving from place to place, never staying anywhere for long. As a result, she grew up with few lasting or stable friendships and tends to assume any close relationship she establishes will end sooner rather than later. The death of her loved ones has only reinforced that belief.
- Adrenaline Junkie: Though it is more of a guilty pleasure, Miri enjoys a little danger from time to time. Putting her life at risk excites her in ways no other hobby possibly could (provided the danger doesn't involve heights or confined spaces - see Weaknesses).
- Hatred of Dark Siders: Miri carries a deep-seated hatred and distrust of all Sith and Dark Siders. She is unlikely to be willing to reason with anyone who holds allegiance with such people.
WEAKNESSES
- The Would-Be Jedi: Miri used to have the Force. Now she doesn't. The circumstances under which she lost her connection are mysterious, but obviously painful; she is unlikely to discuss the subject.
- Blind As a Bat: Without glasses or contact lenses, Miri's vision is quite poor. She hides this fact from strangers and never wears her glasses in public, claiming they make her look "mousy".
- Fear of Bacta Tanks: Miri is not allergic to bacta, but the specific experience of being submerged in a tank or similar confined space seems to trigger an intense fear and overwhelming need to escape.
- Fear of Heights: Due to her fickle connection, Miri can't rely on the Force to save her if she slips while climbing. Her fear of falling is bad enough to deter her from swinging across chasms or scaling mountains. If there are other people around to help, she's a little less afraid. But she can still freeze up or panic very easily if anything goes wrong.
APPEARANCE
An attractive woman in her thirties with dark curly hair and expressive brown eyes. Her slightly pointed ears and slanting eyebrows are the only outward sign that she is anything other than human, indicative of her half Nagai heritage. Her voice is a low, raspy contralto with an Alderaanian accent.
