Overview History Personality & Traits Connections Skills & Abilities Inventory

• Tess Wyn-Tai, an 18-year-old from Sacorria, always chased speed and excitement. Life on her family farm felt too slow, so her hunger for purpose led her to join the Galactic Empire.
  
  Blonde hair, sharp brown eyes, and boundless energy define Tess. She represents a new breed of Imperial youth: someone brought up with limits but yearning for vast opportunities. For her, the Empire isn't about control; it's a chance. It's how she'll leave her secluded home on Sacorria behind and make her mark across the galaxy.

  HISTORY
  Tess was born in Dorthus Tal City, part of a Sacorrian farming family deeply connected to the fertile land outside the capital. Like many on Sacorria, her early life was shaped by strict laws, secrecy, and the Triad's pervasive control. However, her family quietly welcomed the Empire. When the Galactic Empire's banners replaced those of the old Triad and the chaotic Galactic Alliance, her parents quickly pledged loyalty. They saw Imperial rule as a promise of both safety and prosperity for their land.
  
  Restless and always seeking a thrill, Tess spent her youth racing old speeder bikes across Sacorria's fields and cliffs. Every crash and scar felt like a trophy, and each forbidden flight into restricted areas tasted like true freedom. By the time she came of age, Tess knew Sacorria couldn't hold her. When Imperial recruiters arrived in Dorthus Tal, she tested into the Naval Academy. Her scores were exceptionally high in reaction time, spatial awareness, and a willingness to take risks, all vital qualities for a starfighter pilot.
  
  Leaving Sacorria for the Academy was more than just a departure for Tess; it felt like an escape. The Empire offered her an opportunity for a career in the Starfighter Corps, along with a life unbound by Sacorrian law. Her ultimate ambition wasn't simply to fly. She yearned to fight, to blaze across the stars in a TIE fighter and prove her worth to the Empire.

  PERSONALITY
  • Adrenaline-Seeker – Tess thrives on speed, chaos, and high-stakes situations. She is at her most alive when riding the edge between control and disaster.
  • Loyal but Self-Driven – While Tess genuinely believes in the Empire's promise of order and power, her deepest loyalty is to the pursuit of her own freedom and thrill. She interprets Imperial doctrine less as duty and more as the stage on which she can live her adventure.
  • Rebelliously Conformist – She outwardly embraces Imperial ideals and hierarchy, but beneath that, she sees the Empire as a vehicle to escape Sacorria's suffocating conformity. Her obedience is pragmatic, not devotional.
  • Blunt, Fearless, and Impulsive – She rarely censors herself, often rushing into decisions before fully considering consequences.

  Weaknesses
  
  • Recklessness – Her thrill-seeking often leads to unnecessary risks, sometimes endangering herself or her squadmates.

  NOTABLE SKILLS
  • Speeder and Flight Prodigy – Years of illicit speeder racing honed her into a natural pilot before she ever touched a real cockpit.

  • Quick Reflex Combatant – While unrefined, she's scrappy in close combat, relying on speed and instinct over form.
  • Keen Spatial Awareness – Exceptional ability to track multiple moving objects in 3D space, giving her an edge in dogfights.
