[b]Appearance:[/b] The Massassi Sorcerers were created by the Sith to be perfect physical specimens, and Elistrae is no exception. Nearly full grown at 5'11" she is lithe and athletic, her musculature being defined, but not unattractively or unfeminately so. She is of holovid quality beauty like her mother, her deep purple eyes standing in contrast to her bronze skin and blonde hair. She bares the traditional Massassi tattoo of a priestess of the "light" temple on the back of her right hand. She is unnaturally graceful, like flowing water.  Her eyes are hard like a proper huntress.

[b]Clothing:[/b] Like all Massassi, Elistrae favors tight clothing that doesn't impede any motion. This makes most of her outfits tight fitting and rather revealing.

[b]Uniform:[/b] Standard Padawan Outfit

[b]Personality:[/b] Elistrae is a quiet, but forceful person. Like her father, she doesn't often voice her opinion, but when she does is willing to argue the point to the death. Soft spoken and given to random acts of kindness like her mother, Elistrae sees the world in very black and white, with a strongly defined sense of personal morality. Since her with the Jedi, Elistrae has become a withdrawn person. Some call her sullen, but she prefers the term 'contemplative' or 'thoughtful'. She lacks most social graces, and doesn't care what people think of her.

[b]History:[/b] Elistrae was born on Yavin 4 of the famed Wraith Garrison and his high priestess, Elistrae. Shortly after the resurrection of the Massassi people, and Wraith's own Massassi blood being awakened in him, he was appointed as The Sith Apprentice. Amongst his own people, he is viewed as a Prophet of the Dark Lord, both ArcAngel and Demon Prince, and right hand of the divine.

During their tenure on Yavin 4, Wraith took several Massassi Sorcerers as his personal priests, one of which Elistrae, became more personal. While Krell and he left to continue the Sith Civil War, Elistrae stayed behind and gave birth to their first litter (Massassi are born in litters of 2-4, in their case a set of tripletts). The first born, and most powerful in the force, was named for their mother, Elistrae.

Massassi mature quickly, attaining full physical and mental maturity sometime between their 4th and 5th year of age. By the time they are one, they are mature enough to begin combat training and force training. Elistrae excelled in both, the smattering of her father's blood (which is both sorcerer AND berserker) gave her an edge in both speed and strength against her fellow Sorcerer children. Likewise, she was born unusually strong in the force for a Massassi, and quickly mastered all the simple tricks and cantrips traditionally taught to fledgling priests.

Wraith dropped in and out of the families' lives, his duties to the Dark Lord and to his people keeping him away for long periods of time. But when he was around, it was obvious that Elistrae was his favorite, doting on her with gifts and praise, taking special interest in her training. She looked just like her mother he always said, the most beautiful of the Massassi women. She spent her first 3 years anxiously awaiting his visits.

However, everything changed when Wraith left for the deep core to enter hiding at the height of the Civil War. Her mother died giving birth to their second litter of children, leaving Elistrae and her two siblings to fend for themselves, just a year before their rites of passage. Elistrae entered the temple as a Priestess, depite her young age, because her father was a holy man. Jareel was adopted into a berserker family, and Ceres was adopted into a Sorcerer family.

Upon his return to find his consort dead and his children scattered, Wraith immediately set out to protect his favorite child. Late one night, during a powerful storm, he snuck into the temple and kidnapped his daughter, so that her dissapearance would be a mystery, for what he planned to do with her was traiterous and heresy...

Wraith brought her to the Jedi Temple on the rebuilt Coruscant and left her in the care of Master Khar.

Elistrae was assigned to the tutelage of Jedi Knight Bra'alin. She began her studies in earnest, quickly picking up swordplay and swiftly developing her control of the force. However, her control of the force began suffering as her residual emotions of being abandoned by her father interfered with her concentration. Master Bra'alin attempted to help Elistrae through her turmoil.

Fortune was not in Elistrae's problem, as the Republic fell to the ever growing Sith Empire, the Jedi fled to Rishi. Bra'alin, who suffered from her own acute instability and lack of confidence abandoned Elistrae on Rishi to go on a journey of self discovery. Elistrae was left alone, friendless, and masterless, on Rishi.

Elistrae befriended a fellow padawan named Darui, who became her mentor in the force arts, and in return, she taught him swordplay. After many months of grueling physical exercise and endless hours of force practice, Elistrae managed to overcome her feelings of abandonment and began learning again by leaps and bounds.

Soon thereafter, Bra'alin returned and resumed her instruction of Elistrae, now a more confident Jedi. Elistrae flourished at having her Jedi 'family' reunited.

Several weeks went by, and Elistrae's uncle, Lance, the brother of her father, returned to the enclave and took a personal interest Elistrae's training. They trained together between sessions with Bra'alin, studying the force, history, philosophy, and of course, the ever needed swordplay...
