Dinera Asichi

Maatias - Her Little Brother.

Dinera Asichi was a female Pantoran Politician and Rebel who was born into the final days of the Galactic Republic and lived most of her life under the Galactic Empire - Something she fiercely detested.

## Biography

Dinera’s story starts before she was born, her parents being two rather prominent members of the Pantoran Assembly - Iri and Jicelli Asichi, who were staunchly in favor of the Galactic Republic in its waning years, and even more staunchly - Supported the Republican faction of Pantoran Politics in direct opposition to the Appeasers, and the Expansionists - Seeing both of them as inherently against the core values and beliefs of Pantora and its people.

Dinera was born late enough into the increasing instability of the waning republic that she hardly remembers any of it - Even despite the increasing amounts of stress due Political Instability inflicted by the formation of the empire, Dinera’s parents were still good parents - Loving and affectionate to both her and her little brother, Dinera’s early memories are ones she remembers fondly, as her parents did their best to give both their children the best education they could get, and to instill early on free-thinking into both of them.

Dinera at this time never really thought negatively of her parents - But she did however, think negatively of having people doing things for her, so to say - For as long as she can remember, she has never enjoyed the idea of acting overly dignified and “lady-like”, sure she was educated in how to act like this - But she was much, much more inclined to seek out a, for lack of a better term, wild life in her free time - Which mainly consisted of traditionally un-ladylike activities, such as rather reckless snow-sledding along routes considered to be dangerous, betting money. Generally considered to be dangerous and reckless, but still very juvenile. Dinera felt MUCH more inclined towards this than Tradition.

Dinera’s actual education was very focused on Pantora’s resident artform - Politics, which in contrast to her general mannerisms and personality, she actually picked up quite well, and quickly began to excel in it, even if it wasn’t something she truly “enjoyed”, for what she did truly enjoy, her parents acquiesced in allowing her to take marksmanship lessons, which she then also convinced her parents to give her younger brother, Maatias, the chance to try it out too - Might as well, right? Either way, she excelled at her education, especially in the more physical and “gritty” bits of it that others might turn away at.

However during this time, her desire to get into all sorts of “interesting” activities only increased, she didn’t just go and snow-sled recklessly, no, she sought to really experience the grit of life, so to say, and as such she found herself getting into trouble rather often, and while it was never serious enough to truly be REAL trouble, it was still often enough that it gave her parents and a certain friend of theirs headaches rather often. Especially when she involved Maatias in her shenanigans - Which only seemed to amplify it.

Of course, her life would meet an abrupt speed-bump as one morning, when she was seventeen, she and her brother received the dreadful news that their parents had both perished when a passenger-craft suffered a critical malfunction and crashed into a landing-hanger at very high speeds - Killing both instantly, and suddenly leaving the seventeen-year-old Dinera and her fifteen-year-old brother without the guiding influence of their parents, and leaving Dinera as the new head of the Asichi Family - Which, given its history of being heavily politically involved, was quite a weight on the young Dinera, who suddenly had to fill the void her parents had left, and deal with the fact that they were gone - It weighed heavily on her, but ultimately strengthened her, as like many other Pantorans - She opted to hold the past and her family close to her heart, via the thing that the Asichi’s have always championed - Democracy and freedom while adding her own beliefs and interpretations onto that.

So, upon her eighteenth birthday, she took to the Pantoran Assembly with vigor - Hopeful that having some new blood in her parents’ place would help speed up things in the notoriously slow Assembly, but that, unfortunately, did not go how she expected - And she quickly became VERY frustrated with it, what was the point if nothing ever got done? Especially when an abhorrent section of Pantoran society was calling for them to make alliances with those who would enslave others, or sell substances that destroyed lives - Simply unacceptable, she thought to herself.

So, she quickly resolved to do what she found sensible - Get her hands dirty, and gather a small group of people to get something DONE on Pantora, mainly comprised of people close to her Family - Such as her brother, Teressia’s police chief Dileno Iri, and a few more like-minded people from around the Asichi Estate. Namely - Rauli Tozz, Tiamanio “Mani” Yuugo, Freya Kaluya, and Cha Issaoidan. She assembled this group and the resources for it over the course of two years, after she swiftly became dissatisfied with the inaction and excessive bureaucracy in the assembly, only having recently finished the process.

## Skills and Abilities

Due to both the nature of Pantoran Society and the nature of her parents' professions - Dinera is considerably well versed in the art of politics and diplomacy, at least from the theory and technical standpoint of it all - She is a competent speaker, and fairly charismatic, but due to her still rather young age, she has quite a ways to go when it comes to true experience. In both politics/diplomacy, and leadership. Due to her upbringing and activities during her early life, she has picked up quite a few more practical skills as well. Marksmanship and slicing being among them - If only to an average degree, still quite a bit ahead of her ability when it comes to piloting and driving vehicles - Which while passable, is very basic.

## Equipment, Personal Items, and Vehicles

A DL-44 Blaster Pistol, and a standard nondescript 6-person landspeeder - Will expand upon this once more of actual importance has been gained.

## Relationships

Section will be expanded over time.

* **Maatias Asichi:** Dineras younger brother - Her relationship with him was already strong, but it was further strengthened by the death of their parents. She holds him incredibly dear and typically assumes the leading and protective role within their sibling dynamic, seeking to make sure that no true harm comes to him.
* **Dileno Iri:** Dinera seeks to convince him to fully support the Cell beyond just words - As having him working with them would be an immense asset, plus - She'd rather not be in opposition to one of her fathers closer friends.
* **Rauli Tozz:** Dinera is glad to have such an ardent supporter of both her and the ideals she stands for.
* **Mani Yuugo:** Longtime friend of Dinera and Maatias - Dinera, though disapproving of some of his more distasteful habits (to a degree), is glad to have his support behind her newly founded cell - And it's nice to have a familiar face.
* **Cha Issoidan:**Dinera has similar feelings about Cha's support as she does Rauli's - She's thankful for it, but isn't particularly close to him.
* **Freya Kaluya:** Dinera has quite a bit of interest in Freya - Due to both the fact that she used to support the Expansionists as a mercenary - and thus knowledge on them not many others would have - and her martial skill, something that is somewhat lacking within the Cell at the moment.
