Rimiris Essor

**Rimiris Essor** originally **Rimiris of Islyndrek** is a Sith Apprentice of Darth Magice and a force-user from Ireidessa and a former priestess of Islyndria. She has the potential to become one of the most powerful priestesses of Islyndria, she is mighty in the force for someone her age.

## Biography

Rimiris was born on the planet of Ireidessa in the midst of an eternal war, deep in the unknown region close to the circumferential hyperspace barrier. From a young age, she was found to be force-sensitive and taken to Islyndrek temple to be trained as a priestess.

### Growing Darkness

Towards the end of 1004 ABY, the High Priest of Islyndrek sensed a disaster and sent all his priests and priestesses away from the temple, and told only to return when the disaster was over. Rimiris arrived ahead of time, where she found Darth Caedem and the body of the high priest, having fallen from the plateau after being slain by Caedem's thrown lightsaber.

In a rage, Rimiris attacked the Dark Lord with a staff, although to no avail as it simply snapped on impact with the back of his head, causing no damage to the hulking Sith. Caedem grabbed her by the throat before punching her in the gut, knocking her out.

She was taken back to Caedem's ship and placed in a holding cell, only waking up several hours later, having been taken to Zakuul. Rimiris was brought before the King of the Sith Dominion, Darth Magice, who poured his language into her mind while also ripping her own native tongue from it, so he could learn it.

With their newfound ability to understand each other, the Sith King learned all he could from Rimiris and eventually offered to end the war that had plagued her planet for thousands of years. She agreed to allow him to end the war and she, along with Darth Caedem and Darth Magice travelled back to Ireidessa.

Darth Caedem and Rimiris visited the two capitals of Ireidessa, and they were asked to bring out a champion. If Caedem won, they would surrender to the sith, if the Champion won, then the sith would help them win the war and then leave Ireidessa forever. Thinking themselves unable to lose, the Silphrynne accepted and brought out their champions, Caedem beat them both effortlessly.

After the battles, the Silphrynne thought to retaliate, but Darth Magice descended to the surface, and he showed his spaceship, his army and their superior technology, forcing the Silphrynne army to lose their morale and surrender.

Following his show of strength, Rimiris showed him the way to Islyndrek temple, and the throne of the high priest where the Silphrynne ruler had historically ruled from. Not planning to rule from the ice-cold planet, Magice used “Force Destruction” to disintegrate the throne, then left the planet.

Rimiris came with him and once they had returned to Zakuul, Magice made her his apprentice.

## Powers and abilities

### Lightsaber Training

Rimiris has minimal training with a lightsaber, but only knows the Shii-cho form so far.

### Force Powers

With the force, Rimiris has decent power, as a priestess, she was trained to use it in defence of the god Islyndria, the embodiement of their star. She knows a few rare powers only practices on Ireidessa.

### Languages Known

Rimiris is a native speaker of Silvrynthian and Arcafeyn, the primary languages of Ireidessa, she can also speak Sith after her first encounter with Darth Magice. She's also learning to speak Galactic Basic Standard.

### Other abilities

Her combat abilities differ from most Jedi and Sith as she is more proficient with a staff than she is with a lightsaber as she has been training with it for over a decade at least. Her first staff broke in the fight against Caedem, and she was given a new one by Magice.

## Equipment

Rimiris carries the lightsaber of the late Darth Aleph, Magice's old master, a red lightsaber outfitted with a pontite crystal that radiates a powerful force aura. Its aura makes her seem more soothing and charismatic, while making her lightsaber emit a colder beam.
