Her willpower is such that she shunt off the obscuring effects on her mind projected by a lesser skilled Force-users. Hence illusions and other mind-tricks tend to fizzle out as she blazes through these obstacles much like everything else put before her. This also translates into a sturdy emotional center allowing her to retain resolve through slight, embarrassment, and ridicule. Tactical Analysis Born with a mind for conflict she is often seen at the War Table with her superiors defining the flow of battle. She specializes in barraging and guerilla tactics to represent the overwhelming force of the Sith Empires forces. Distraction and deception are also tools of play but she only shows true strategic power when faced against foes of equal or greater challenge. Politics Diplomacy The aide and servant to a Dark Lord of the Sith for a large portion of her life she educated in the intricacies of formal matters. She can handle herself as both vassal and representative to a greater entity, as well being showing surprising knowledge of current affairs and elusive matters within the Sith Empire. She is not an information broker but she knows how to entertain and extort the presence of officials to gain an upper hand. Leadership Once elected to the position of Sith Lord or Lady as she prefers Jaida quickly found herself commanding the attention and wills of those around her. But this is no matter of the Force. Instead she utilizes her presence and a natural talent for speech to inspire and motivate. As the High-Priestess of the Ember of Vahl she demonstrates a keen ability to deftly organize and direct the minds of devoted subjects. Possessions Lady Sools Lightsaber Uncommon among practitioners of Shien is the curved hilt designed for proponents of the second form of Lightsaber training. For Jaida she has adapted the blade style to provide more angle and force to the powerful strikes of her chosen form, as well it serves as a difficult variation for Jedi to adapt to in the heat of battle. Stylistically the hilt is quite simplistic with a smooth ergonomic grip designed to the hand and an absence of a protective guard presenting it with the ability to be handled multiple ways comfortably. There are no frills and the dark coloring only accented by the brass colored pommel and emitter give it a pleasing appearance. Another strange quality for the blade was the choice of a synthetic power crystal that emits a blue beam. For those who put meaning into such a coloration it provides a further layer of distraction as a Sith, and may be designed with the unintended purpose of confusing her opponents of her nature. The emitter is constructed with a laced conduction array that amplifies the force of the saber bolstered by dueling lens and chambered focusing crystals. While it will cut through most things as a lightsaber, against other saber wielders, or those with resistant materials it immense repulsive force that can knock back an unsteady opponent. This aids to the dominating power strikes of Form V that rage against the opponents defenses to shatter their resistance. APPEARANCES Play-By Lady Death comics ------------ Hair Color - White Eye Color - Pale Blue Complexion - Light Grey Height - 63 ft. Build - Muscular Lean ------------ Description To most Jaida is but a very pale and exotic human with a light grey flesh tone, pale blue eyes, and white hair. Truth is this tall muscular beauty is a member of the near-human species known as the Vahla. Her height and features are both uncommon and treasured by her people, as the pale hair and complexion is seen as a gift from their goddess. Truthfully Jaida does represent the myth of the great Force entity that embodies the beliefs of the Ember of Vahl. While she is physically strong her body is slender like the most of her race honed from years of conditioning and training. As a Vahla, she possesses some unique physical features compared to humans. Most important of which is the dense cartilaginous skeleton the presents a high degree of flexibility. Without true bone structure a Vahla possesses stronger tensile fibers binding her musculature and skeleton, which allows he joints and limbs to absorb and mold to stress. Double jointed with every limb a Vahla can contort and flex in a way considered impossible with hard bone as they can compress their skeletons. By process of this Jaida is naturally stronger than other humans a quality made apparent by her marbled physique. Being a Sith Lord she dresses for a role within the empire and does not often wear much to constrict her in the comfort of her own domain. Jaida is known however for wearing an armor fit for marauders of the Sith Empire, and is often robed in black and crimson. No matter how scarce she is dressed shell always possess her cloak and a belt of her belongings. PERSONALITY Description As wild as the fires she was born from Jaida Sool is said to be a child of prophecy, and whether she believes that claim by her people she embraces the role. She is the incarnation of destruction, or so she was raised to be, and her grooming in the Force has made her a terrifying force of power. But that power is enabled by a dauntless personality. Jaida is fearless with good reason and experience to suggest that she is a dominant presence, but while aware of her abilities enough to know she is not the strongest, it is this knowledge and a resourceful nature that makes her a particularly menacing foe. As the fire she presents she will burn and lash at you however, if she should fail? She will continue to burn playing the long game to oust her opponent from their position of dominance. Consumed by the Dark Side there is a reason she regarded with hesitance of her fellow Sith Lords. Her confidence is the most obvious trait to her personality and that can be a double-sided blade as self-assuredness is not the promise of victory. While Jaida knows this she can become enamored in her own power and ability for destruction. Though that is mostly because dominance and power are the only two qualities she truly respects in this world. The Vahla does not yield or follow to those who do not deserve it, but instead those that take it and can demonstrate a mastery over these archetypes. Like many Sith Jaida Sool has many personal qualities that are guarded and hidden. Perceived as a living embodiment of a Goddess by her people she must reserve herself. This Sith understands the power of belief and the power these delusions can have over others, and thus enjoys crafting a myth of deception feeling that by imitating a source of power should one be worthy they will inherit its properties. Jaida is far more intelligent than her caustic rampages would suggest. She can play subterfuge and misdirection and for most part many do not notice she is really drawing away their attention from important details. They see only what she presents them and that is a most disarming skill. But she does enjoy the chaos of battle and war which allows this woman a font of expression. The Will of Vahl is to become the force which sunders, and there is no better way to do this than to indulge in profane impulses. Able to loosen the restraints of her conscience in the flow of war Jaida Sool is a blistering storm of emotions and power projected by a mastery of will. Her greatest power is that indomitable sense of self. Her crazed and manic expressions are all avenues that allow her to feed off the emotions, stress, confusion, and anguish of her victims. As a Sith it is a means of power. HISTORY Several hundred years after their defeat at the hands of the Jedi Order the Vahla were abandoned in trenches of the Outer Rim far from home. Due to a massive eradication of any data possessed of their planet from Navcharts the species of Force-sensitives were left to wander. Quickly adapting to a culture piracy they followed the dictates of the Ember of Vahl and their priests. During the Sith Empires conflict with the Republic the Vahla saw their encroachment into the Tion Hegemony. The languishing Vahla trapped in old fears and superstition saw the birth of a young child perceived by the Chosen of Vahl to be incarnation of their Goddess. Revered as the Vahlashani, Jaida Sool, would never be permitted the experiences of a child. Torn from her mothers teat the day she no longer needed nursing to be raised by the priests. Strong in the force she naturally demonstrated an influence over abilities practiced by the Dark Side Cult. Using the child as a symbol of their Goddesses favor the Priests used her to coax and manipulate the Vahla to siege territory and wealth in the Tion Hegemony. Meanwhile the Hegemony was under the dominion of the Sith Empire with the capital of the sector being Raxus Prime, the droid and weapon manufacturing arm of the Empire, commanded by Darth Tyral. The Lord heard of the Vahlas imposition and quickly readied his Imperial Fleet and Droid Army to eject them from the sector however, he found his forces undermined by the resourceful Force-sensitives and their Cult. Understanding the threat he faced Tyral took to learning what he could of the people and eventually found himself directed to the presences of a child of potent ability. The people were primitive in his view but he had seen this kind of phenomena happen in the past. Instead of letting the young girl grow to become an upstart that would rally these lost people into a genuine threat against his power, Lord Tyral selected a handful of his faithful Sith, and enacted an organized strike against their armada. Seeking out the Vahlas symbol the Sith Lord raged through them seeking to strike it down. He was present to see the exact promise of the young girls ability when one of the Sith attempted to handle her, and upon touch erupted into a swath of flames. The Vahla were right to worship such power and Tyral found himself wishing to utilize that power rather than destroy it. Suppressing Jaidas conscience the man would take her and ransom her life to the Pirate Armada ordering them to leave the Tion Hegemony and never return, lest they wished their link to the Goddess permanently severed. Demoralized the Vahla were successfully pushed back and the young girl only nine-years of age was shuttled back to Raxus Prime to serve as Tyrals secret apprentice. Taken from reverence and forced into servitude Jaida Sool found herself resisting the teachings of Tyral. But over time and punishment the Vahla found herself learning and beginning respect the man and ethos. After five years of determination to make the girl loyal to him and bring her into his fold as a true Sith, the Dark Lords efforts saw Jaida stand for him uprooting a conspiracy among his military to oust him. Standing toe to toe with a Sith Apprentice ten years her elder the Vahla impressed her Master by executing the traitor. Tyrals greatest mistake would be placing his trust in Jaida. In a way he would come to see her as a daughter and position her as his right hand in favor of other apprentices serving under him. Her loyalty was not to be doubted, but Tyral changed his teachings of obedience and gave her knowledge of freedom and power. Wanting to see their combined abilities unleashed into a lasting legacy he made the failing of a deep attachment. Both Jaida and Tyral would care for one another and he would raise her to the positions of influence within his regime though unable to formally lift her as a Lord of the Sith. Upon Korriban in 30 years since her birth, Darth Tyral is present as a show of force for Darth Kratiss who made claims to be the next Dark Lord. Unaware of supporting treason the Lord of Raxus Prime found himself and his apprentices under persecution. It was Jaida who insisted that her master not go. The Ember of Vahla were entrenched in their farseeing abilities, able to glean impressions of probable futures, and all Jaida Sool could see was darkness and death on Korriban for Tyral. Being present with her master when the newly appointed Hand of the Sith arrived she found herself in a position of choice, one of the first true choices of her life. She did not play a part in Kratiss game and was unwilling to die for the honest mistake of Darth Tyral. For sake of survival when called upon to defend the man she grew to call a father she drew her blade and struck him down along with his two apprentices. Yielding to the Hand claiming fealty to the Sith Order, Jaida did not plea for mercy. Instead she pleads for a chance to show her worth and earn her place away from the shadows of the men that had deceived them. Presented to the Dark Council by the Hand to defer over her crimes, they took into consideration her efforts and skeptically wondered over motive. Ultimately it was the Hand of the Sith who urged wisdom to spare her as a tool for the Sith, as she had turned upon the man that had groomed her for a purpose greater than attachment. She upheld their order and fulfilled the whim of the Dark Side through triumphing over her emotional ties. For all purposes she had demonstrated herself worthy to be a Lord among the Sith. Favoring the Hands consideration, as he was elected to authority, they chose to spare Jaidas life so long as she served the Council. She was their responsibility now and as the rules applied to Tyral and all others that had been caught within Kratiss folly so too would any Sith that dared to grasp for unearned power again. Nevertheless the Dark Council had other plans for the Vahlashani, and no end of interest in grooming her to be one of their many tools to rouse out dissent.
