Arcandal Hex

Arcandal Hex was a Petty Officer serving on the ISD-Vindicator during 18BBY-17BBY.
==Personality==
Arcandal Hex is a cowardly Naval Officer, riddled with anxiety and psychological trauma. They typically panic during stressful situations, but she tries to keep herself calm. She takes medicine to counter-attack this and help ease her mind. Hex is very intelligent, being a prodigy in her field, though this is often overlooked due to her personality. She often has trouble socializing with others, or having no knowledge on common things. This is due to her upbringing, and her lack of proper schooling.
==Appearance==
Hex is shorter then most, being 5'3, with long, black hair and purple eyes. Her body is covered in numerous scars from her time in the Cult.
== Early Life ==
=== Life in the Cult ===
Arcandal Thavin'Dur was born into a psychotic cult, her guardian being Rak'she Bloodsinger, an inbred Trandoshan Priest. Alongside her were her to "Siblings", a Twi'lek and a Zabrak who were kidnapped into the Thavin'Dur Family Branch on Daver Kuat. During her time here, she suffered psychological and physical abuse, having to go through many vicious and barbaric rituals under the "Nurturing" care of Rak'she Bloodsinger, who frequently performed bloodletting rituals on the children in order to "cleanse" the spiritual impurities that they carried. The Zabrak and the Twi'Lek did not survive this process, dying of blood-loss shortly after. Always after these rituals, a dark clothed figure would inspect the children, claiming to be Witches. Somehow, Hex and a few others survived these gruesome rituals. This turned her into a scared, skittish child who feared the world around her. She had a very hard time socializing with the other children, becoming a shut-in in the Children's Quarters. To this day, she sometimes has PTSD Episodes to her time at the cult, often having to return to her quarters to wait the episode out. These Episodes cause her much distress. 
Rak'she Bloodsinger organized a meetup with another Family Branch, having to bring the children outside and into the city of Br'avin. During this trip, Hex made a break for it away from the Witches and from Rak'she, running deeper into the city. She would be chased by the Witches, desperatly trying to get away. Somehow, strange things would happen to impede her path. Something grabing her leg, pulling her back, large scaffolding would fall infront of her, and various sharp objects would be attracted to her. To this day, Hex has no idea what was happening. After an hour, Hex would find The Pale Piper a merchant ship that was currently docked and being loaded with cargo. Hex would sneak in during this process, hiding in a cargo crate. After an hour of quietly crying in the crate, the ship would leave port and enter hyperspace. 
=== Time on Empress Teta ===
After sneaking off the Pale Piper, Hex was thrust into the overwhelming environment of the ecumenopolis world of Empress Teta. This overwhelmed Hex, who cried for an hour aboard the Pale Piper's cargo hold, until the crew discovered her. Confused as to why a 15 year child was aboard their cargo vessel, they turned them into the local security force for detainment. Hex was interrogated, which she lied and told them she was an orphan from Coruscant that got scared and got trapped in their Cargo Hold. The Officers let her go, and she was put out into the large cramped city. She wandered around for a few days, trying to find a home or a job. She eventually signed into a cramped homeless shelter. She would return to here each night after spending the day searching for a job. After 3 days, she would get employed as a waitress for the Crimson Lap, a rundown restraunt. She would work here for roughly 7 weeks, before signing up for Parsec 5 Naval Academy in 27BBY.
=== The Naval Academy ===
Her time in the Parsec 5 Naval Academy wasn't a pleasant experience. She was not accustomed to school life, and often had trouble keeping up with work. She completely failed her combat training, struggled with history, and did not socialize at all with her teachers and peers. Her Instructor, Yaren Dresk, had a very rough teaching method. Hex, due to her shy and reclusive nature, was targeted by most of her peers and by Yaren, often being picked on or bullied. Hex was always used as an example. "Don't do this, don't be like her." This crippled her already low self-esteem. She used this bullying as fuel, trying to prove to them she was better and she could be better. She ended up becoming one of the top students recorded in Parsec 5, having an overwhelmingly high score, which suffered by her failure in combat training and history, ending up becoming second place to an alien named Ma'vrik Chi. Despite her accomplishment, she was still bullied and harassed. Shortly after graduating, she was quickly transferred to the IV-Phalanx.
==Early Service==
=== The Destruction of The Phaedra ===
The total destruction of The Phaedra was a disaster that the result of Arcandal Hex's failure to properly lead the ship against the Florrum Enemy Fleet. 
== Relationships==
====Devda of Serenno====
Hex is not a fan of Devda, mainly due to the insults she has received during her time aboard the IV-Phalanx and ISD-Phaedra. High Command's opinion has influenced her opinion of him as well, seeing him as a coward and just another spoiled brat.
====Captain Tomas Botav====
Her first introduction to the Captain was a positive one, but Hex was very nervous and anxious of meeting him, thinking she was going to be treated poorly, After the encounter, she told Domitius Ilyin that she finds Botav as intimating. Later on though, she has grown to respect him and his authority. 
==== Commodore Malatche Styke ====
Hex has nothing but the upmost respect for the Commodore. She thanks him for his patience with her, and hopes she'll one day rise through the ranks of the Imperial Navy, and show him that he did the right thing promoting her. Before she was transferred, the Commodore gifted her an heirloom - and old pocket watch. Hex treasures this item, keeping it close by her at all times.
==== Commander Crackerjack ====
Hex despises Commander Crackerjack. With the constant harassments and total abuse she suffers at the hands of him, Hex is constantly reminded of her failure. She thinks this is necessary. Never Forget.
==== Inquisitor Relic Kresh ====
Hex considers herself friends with the Inquisitor. He has saved her ass numerous times and she owes him his life. She doesn't like how he's poking through her past, which she desperately wants to forget.
==== Lieutenant Linda Pravdin ====
She's such a fucking badass, please step on me.
==== Commander Maxon Korrado ====
What a fucking dick, he killed Ace.
