BIOGRAPHY
The stage lights of Amarin's bustling taverns not long ago illuminated the enigmatic figure of Prystill, a Theelin whose past is as hauntingly beautiful as her performances. Her iridescent skin, subtly shimmering under the cantina glow, and the unique patterns of her horns hint at a heritage both ancient and distinct, yet it's the profound depth in her eyes that truly captivates.
Whispers among the regular patrons and starship crews speak of a brutal beginning as a Hutt slave, a life marked by the relentless crack of a whip and the echo of the auctioneer's gavel. It's said her early songs were silent prayers, hummed in the dark confines of captivity. This harrowing existence was abruptly exchanged for a chilling chapter under the shadow of a Sith master – a period shrouded in more speculation than fact. Did she serve as a mere chattel, or was there a more sinister purpose to her acquisition, perhaps her unique physiology intriguing to dark side practitioners? No one truly knows, and Prystill offers no answers, only the faint, lingering shadow of that ordeal in her most poignant melodies.
How she arrived on Amarin, a world with a vibrant arts scene and diverse inhabitants, and found her way to the stage under the unlikely wing of a shrewd yet benevolent tavern owner, remains the most intriguing mystery of all. Some say she arrived on a tramp freighter, lost and weary. Others claim she simply appeared one day, drawn by the music spilling from the tavern doors. Regardless, this new guardian saw past the scars of her past, recognizing not just a survivor, but a raw, undeniable talent.
Yet, when Prystill sings, her voice fills the room with an undeniable, almost otherworldly power. It's a contralto laced with echoes of forgotten worlds and unspoken sorrows, each lyric imbued with a depth that only a soul forged in unimaginable adversity can truly possess. Her movements are fluid, almost ethereal, a dance that tells tales of hard-won freedom and defiant survival without uttering a single word. She doesn't just perform; she weaves a spell, drawing her audience into a narrative of resilience that is entirely her own, yet universally felt. Prystill isn't just a performer; she's a living legend in the making, her unspoken story woven into every captivating show, leaving audiences wondering about the full extent of her journey and the untapped power within.
That life has been changed again. This time of her own accord. While singing at this tavern Prystill met a young Near-Duros businesswoman named Nolle. When the Empire of the Lost collapsed, Nolle temporarily lost her own livelihood. That soon changed with the rise of the Imperial Confederation. After becoming friends due to their diverse interests and the desire to share expertise, Prystill agreed to become Nolle's aid as the Near-Duros went to New Alderaan to serve as a Prefect in the new government.

STRENGTHS
- Exceptional Understanding of Human Nature and Social Dynamics: Having been a slave, Prystill has developed a keen ability to read people, understand power dynamics, and navigate complex social hierarchies for survival. As a tavern entertainer, she was exposed to a wide variety of people from different walks of life, honing their observational skills and ability to gauge moods, motivations, and allegiances. This translates directly into political acumen, allowing them to anticipate reactions, identify hidden agendas, and effectively manage interpersonal relationships within the political sphere.
- Resourcefulness and Adaptability Under Pressure: A life of slavery and then entertaining instilled immense resourcefulness. Prystill learned to make do with little, find solutions in difficult circumstances, and adapt quickly to changing environments. In the high-stakes world of politics, this adaptability will be invaluable for navigating unexpected crises, pivoting strategies, and finding creative solutions to intractable problems.
- Compelling Communication and Persuasion Skills: As a tavern entertainer, Prystill mastered the art of engaging an audience, telling stories, and captivating attention. This experience provides her with strong verbal communication skills, the ability to articulate complex ideas simply, and a natural knack for persuasion. These are crucial strengths for a political aid, whether they are drafting speeches, negotiating with allies, or rallying public support.
WEAKNESSES
- Lack of Formal Education or Experience in Traditional Governance: While Prystill possesses incredible street smarts and an intuitive understanding of people, she lacks formal education in law, economics, political theory, or administrative procedures. Her experience in a tavern, while valuable for social dynamics, has not prepared her for the intricate workings of legislative processes, bureaucratic red tape, or international diplomacy. This could lead to missteps in strategy, a struggle with complex policy details, or being outmaneuvered by those with more traditional political backgrounds.
- Vulnerability to Past Traumas or Exploitation of Their History: Prystill's past as a slave and entertainer, while providing unique insights, also makes her vulnerable. Opponents could attempt to exploit her history for political gain, using it to discredit them, manipulate them, or expose painful memories. Furthermore, past traumas could resurface, affecting their judgment, emotional stability, or ability to function effectively under extreme pressure. She is also prone to emotional reactions when confronted with injustices that echo her own past experiences.
PERSONALITY OVERVIEW
Prystill Oasay, the former singer and dancer now navigating the intricate world of political aid, presents a fascinating duality. On the surface, she is a radiant burst of energy, effervescent and approachable, with a laugh that could light up a room and a ready smile. This "bubbly" exterior is not entirely a façade; she genuinely possesses a quick wit, a natural charisma, and a joy in performance and interaction that was honed during her years on stage. She's adept at charming crowds, diffusing tension with a well-placed joke, and making others feel at ease. Her movements are fluid and graceful, a testament to her dancing background, and she carries herself with an innate confidence that draws people in.
However, beneath this vibrant veneer lies a deep well of caution and a wish to be a more analytical mind. Prystill operates with the quiet vigilance of someone who has learned to observe and assess every detail of their surroundings. Her internal world is a place of constant calculation, where every word spoken to her, every gesture observed, and every situation encountered is meticulously processed for underlying motives, potential threats, and strategic advantages. This cautiousness isn't rooted in timidity, but in a profound understanding that appearances can be deceiving and that trust, once given, can be easily betrayed.
Key Personality Traits:
- Charismatic & Engaging (Outer): Prystill is a natural performer. She thrives on engaging with people, effortlessly commanding attention with her engaging storytelling, playful banter, and an infectious enthusiasm. She's quick to smile, quick to laugh, and excellent at putting others at ease. This makes her an invaluable asset in public relations, networking, and deflecting difficult questions with grace.
- Observant & Analytical (Inner): Her years in entertainment, particularly her previous life (if we consider the "former slave" context), have sharpened her observational skills to an extreme degree. She notices micro-expressions, shifts in tone, and subtle power dynamics that others miss. Internally, she's constantly piecing together information, looking for patterns, and assessing potential risks or opportunities. She rarely takes anything at face value.
- Resourceful & Adaptable (Underlying): While she may not have formal political training, Prystill possesses an incredible ability to think on her feet and adapt to rapidly changing circumstances. She's not afraid to improvise and can quickly pivot strategies when faced with unexpected challenges. This stems from a history of needing to survive and thrive in unpredictable environments.
- Loyal (Once Earned): For those few who manage to penetrate her cautious exterior and earn her trust, Prystill is fiercely loyal. She will go to great lengths to protect and support those she cares about, offering insightful advice and unwavering backing. However, this loyalty is a rare and precious commodity, not easily given.
- Strategic & Calculated (Internal): Despite her outwardly spontaneous nature, Prystill's actions are often rooted in careful thought. She is constantly evaluating the long-term implications of decisions and interactions. She might appear to act on impulse, but often, that "impulse" is a well-rehearsed maneuver or a calculated risk.
- Private & Guarded (Internal): While she shares much of her personality, her deepest thoughts, fears, and vulnerabilities are kept closely guarded. She is wary of revealing too much of herself, understanding that such information can be used against her. This creates a subtle boundary that few are allowed to cross.
How Her Inner and Outer Selves Interact:
Prystill's bubbly exterior often serves as a highly effective shield for her cautious interior. People tend to underestimate her, seeing only the vibrant entertainer and not the shrewd strategist. This allows her to gather information, assess situations, and even manipulate perceptions without drawing suspicion. Her ability to "perform" happiness and ease even when internally on high alert is a testament to her self-control and resilience. She uses her charm as a tool, a means to an end, rather than an unfiltered expression of her inner state. Her cautiousness prevents her from being truly spontaneous in deeply personal ways, even as she excels at performing spontaneity in public.
