PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
A tall and thin Twi’lek who possesses an unusual skin coloration somewhere between yellow and green. Her eyes are the same strange shade and are wide and expressive.
Her purple headgear has commonly been seen as a subtle symbol of servitude throughout the galaxy’s entangled history with the Twi’leks.
However, her blue robe has intricate designs and motifs woven into the soft threads, indicating she was not a typical servant of low class, but rather someone of great influence. Around her petite waist is a belt that holds a few small but important objects.
Paired with her long robe are a pair of brown sandals, turning her overall look into something that is elegant but functional for most warm-climate worlds.
INVENTORY
DL-18 blaster
Stolen garbage scow
C-1 comlink
Stolen Sith holocron
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
A quiet and reflective, but very observant Twi’lek, it seemed unusual that Orenda would eventually become instrumental in several covert operations funded by a powerful Sith Lord. Although she was frequently underestimated by those who saw her as no more than a pawn in the fragmented empire of the Sith, Orenda’s true strength lies in the power of her mind.
A careful planner, she draws on her sharp instincts and unexpectedly maternal nature to pursue the best path for Kael and herself, often choosing to put the young human’s needs ahead of her own. Although the years have turned her aloof, those who truly know Orenda could count on her compassion and bright mind to help them out of trouble.

HISTORY
Orenda remembered almost nothing of her parents’ faces or even the walls of the home she must have grown up in. She remembered only the pain of hunger, and how prevalent it was in the days before she met Lord Panshard on Ryloth.
As he told the story, she was a starving orphan who had wandered too far from her war-ravaged village. As she grew older and came to know the true ruthless nature of the man who adopted her, Orenda suspected that this story was only partly true, though her gratitude made it hard to separate truth from fiction.
Highly respected among Sith Lords but deeply mistrustful of his own kind, Lord Panshard was a Khaleesh Sith Lord who spent months at a time chasing rebel cells who dared to defy the dark side. When he wasn’t engaged in conflict, he was often hunting for ancient holocrons containing both light and dark side knowledge, hoping to further his own power and guard himself from the murderous nature of his Sith brethren.
There to assist him from the shadows was Orenda, who used her sharpened instincts to help him track down resistance fighters and little-known enclaves. Although she never participated in his wars, those within Panshard’s network knew that she was a key member of his campaigns, following his instructions without complaint. Although several rebel groups had come close to slaying Panshard and ending his terrible history, it was with the Twi’lek’s help that he emerged unscathed every time.
Until it all began to change. One day the Sith Lord discovered a young human boy on
Kijimi, an eleven year-old named Kael, whose entire childhood was destroyed during a battle to obtain a Sith holocron being protected in the mountains. It was on this planet Orenda saw the destruction that she had helped contribute to, even though she knew nothing of either the light or the dark side.
She knew that he had to be stopped.
While Kael was brought to a cell aboard Panshard’s flagship, destined to be tortured until he gave in to the Sith, Orenda used her wits to bring Panshard out toward the airlock that regulated the ship’s waste disposal. Before he could react, she launched him into the cold atmosphere above Kijimi, where he froze before he could call upon the Force to help him.
When Panshard’s crew realized what had happened, it was nearly too late. Orenda had loaded Kael into the ship’s garbage scow and removed the Sith holocron, hoping to use it later as a bargaining chip for when they would need the credits.
She launched the transport into hyperspace, putting as much distance between herself and the planet, and hoping to find people who could teach Kael what to do with his Force powers - people who weren’t capable of the same destruction she had once entertained.
