  • Born on the planet Zygerria in the Old Sith Empire to enslaved parents, Xanthe Jura's childhood was one of suffering. Her parents did their best to treat her well, but they didn't have much, and so she set out to make herself as strong a person as possible in hopes of one day escaping slavery. She was particularly interested in the powerful beings ruling the Empire, and often times would sneak out at night to read about them. While she hated the fact that she was enslaved in and empire ruled by said Sith, she grew to understand the rule of the strong they preached so often and so hardened herself even more to survive. A little after she had turned 12, a small local sect of rebellious citizens lead an uprising against the local slave lords during a visit from a Sith academy recruiter. The rebels were poorly organized, and in the midst of the chaos and pro-Jedi battle cries, Xanthe's parents were killed in the crossfire, along with here slave master. While she didn't care about the latter, the death of her parents enraged her and she attacked the man who'd killed them. While he raised his blaster to do the same to her as she charged, Xanthe unknowingly gave in to the Dark Side and used an instinctual telekinetic attack on the rebel soldier, knocking him off his feet long enough for the Shistavanen to close the gap and rip out his throat with her claws. This display of potential attracted the attention of the Sith recruiter after the brief skirmish, and Xanthe was sent to Korriban to begin training as a Sith. She also now harbored a silent hatred for the weak who sought to band together and break the peace of a well functioning in the name of mythical light side warriors.

    During her time on Korriban, Xanthe focused on balancing her time between practicing combat and spending time in the library researching the Sith past and their longtime enemy, the Jedi. She slowly became one of the most powerful students in her class, displaying proficiency with augmenting her intimidation and primal fighting prowess through the Force. Xanthe also came to become proficient in Force lightning, and used to augment her combat. She learned to channel her hatred while at the same time keeping a calm head so as to fully take advantage of her surroundings and opponents' weaknesses. Eventually she graduated and has since become eager to find new ways to augment her power until she can become the strongest Sith possible, and expand Sith control throughout the galaxy, which she feels would benefit from Sith leadership.

  • Xanthe is a firm believer in the Old Empire's Rule of the Strong, although she is concerned that the vast amount of Sith could eventually lead to a quantity over quality mentality, which would further result in the weak overpowering the strong through pure numbers. She believes in the Rule as the natural state of the universe, just as predators dominate their prey. As a Shistavanen she does have some more aggressive tendencies, but Xanthe had put lots of effort into avoiding becoming a mindless brute, and so doesn't rely on her pure physical abilities to command the battlefield.

    At times she can become somewhat apathetic, not showing much concern for people besides as tools to use in her rise of power, even using her own eye-catching beauty (as Shistavanen go) as something to get what she wants. However, Xanthe is also quite capable of deeper emotions such as love if someone can get her to open up and connect with them.

A few changes I'd request in the profile before it can be approved:

1. I find it hard to believe that rebels would kill his parents, maybe if you add in that it was an accident, they got caught in the crossfire or something like that. Also, your character would not know they are rebels, simple dissenters or raiders or something like that but the Galaxy at large does not know about the rebels being a thing.

2. Force Fear is not something an untrained Force user can use in the way you have described your character using to stop the rebel. First instinctive uses of the Force are normally telekinesis, this is way too deliberate to be okay.

Also, this is just feedback from me and not part of the actual review, but you should fix your formatting. Right now the stats are squished because your image is too big and you can't really read the name and other info you have up there.

1. My intention was to have her parents killed on accident. I'll rewrite that section to make it more clear. I'll fix the references to any organized group of rebels.

2. I'll change the use of force fear. Is it still okay to have it after the fact though?

3. I'm doing this on mobile, so what appears good to me seems to appear bad to you. I can change it later if I have access to something larger.
