Name: Elona Nubinar
Race: Lorrdian
Age: 32
Height: 5'6
Weight: 128 lbs
Appearance: Her hair is a golden silver and worn very long. She has golden eyes as well.
Birth place: Lorrd
Faction: Jedi
Rank: Jedi Knight
Bio: Elona was found to be Force-Sensitive around the age of one at which time she was taken to the Jedi Temple in order to begin her training. She was a promising student, with wide-eyed innocence and a thirst for knowledge. Through the years she learned what was taught, though she did not always master her lessons, she did her best. Certain things such as healing were never her area of expertise. She learned to move things with her mind, to manipulate others with a simple touch of the Force, but her greater skill was the art of lightsaber combat.
She was taken as a Padawan by Jedi Knight Pytora Jun, a green-skinned Twi'lek who became like an older sister to the young Elona. They became a perfect team, working together to bring peace to the galaxy and justice to those who would do wrong. Not that their relationship always went smoothly, they had their share of arguments and disagreements, but in the end each came away having learned something new. Many speculate that Elona's long years as a Padawan stem from her deep bond with Pytora Jun, though eventually she earned the rank of Knighthood.
However the pair continued to work together; the name Jun or Nubinar was rarely heard without the other. For several years they took missions, continuing to bring justice until one fateful day, when Elona would lose her closest friend. The mission had been on the world of Ryloth, where two Twi'lek families were having a dispute. Due to her own Twi'lek heritage, Jun was asked to settle the matter and of couse she requested that Elona accompany her. Pytora took care of the negotiations while Elona was content to watch those around her, feeling them out and studying their physical actions to gleen secrets that would never be uttered. At first the mission went well, but before either Jedi realized it the two families had turned on them, making wild accusations. In their attempted escape the two Jedi were overtaken by an angry mob, Elona was pulled free by a pair of helping hands, but her former Master was not so lucky.
Elona was helped by a male Twi'lek, Kesan Si, who knew the truth; that a third party who did not want the families to settle their differences had spread false rumors about the Jedi's intentions. With Kesan's help Elona was able to clear her name and the name of her dead Master. She was unable to recover Pytora's body in order to give it a proper burial and she was surprised when Kesan demanded to travel with her as compensation for his help. She agreed and so returned to the Temple.
Since, Elona has come to terms with the loss of Pytora Jun and taken comfort in her new friend (and tagalong) Kesan. Nearly two years have gone by and Elona continues to serve the Jedi Order and the galaxy faithfully. If anything the death of her former Master has only strengthened her resolve.

The sun was rising over Manaan, its rays glittering over the ocean's surface like millions of tiny diamonds. Elona stood at the balcony, overlooking the vast waters, her mind having slipped into a meditive state. She could smell the crips clean air, feel the gentle breeze as it blew through her long hair, and faintly taste the ocean salt. Through the Force she was even able to discern the vibrating hum of the planet and its inhabitants.
She was stirred from her quiet reverie by a hand on her shoulder. Slowly, as if from a dream, she turned to look at Kesan who was at her side with a humored expression on his face.
"I see you were Jedi world again." He teased.
With a soft smile she shook her head. "I was just thinking."
"There's a difference between thinking and being in Jedi la-la land." Kesan moved his hand, brushing a stray lock of hair from her shoulder. "When you're in Jedi la-la land you look misty and old, when you're thinking you look normal, like now."
She wasn't about to argue. It was just like Kesan to tease her about being a Jedi, he did so frequently, but Elona never cared. She knew very well what her duty was and that the gift of the Force meant using it to protect others. Kesan must have had similar beliefs or else he wouldn't insist upon following her around almost everywhere.
"Come on, the shuttle leaves in couple hours and I want to get some food before then." He headed back inside.
As she followed him, a strange feeling tingled at the back of her neck. It was not the first time she had experienced it and she knew it would not be the last. But, was she really ready?
"Kesan?"
The serious tone in her voice drew the Twi'lek's attention immediately. "What is it?"
"What would you do if I took a Padawan?" She hoped the question would come off as casual, but by the way Kesan's lekku suddenly became very still, Elona knew it had startled him.
"Well..." He managed to recover himself. "I imagine I'd stick around... poison the kid's mind, continue to pester you... Why do you ask? You aren't really contemplating raising some kid are you?"
She frowned. "It's not exactly like raising... it's more like guiding." Elona was quick to correct him, though there wasn't a whole lot of difference in the word usage. If she were to take a Padawan, Elona would be responsible for his or her's well being and training. It was not a light decision to make.
Seeing her hesitation, Kesan closed the distance between them, placing both hands on her shoulders. "That choice is yours, El. Do what the Force tells you."
Elona looked up at Kesan as though he'd suddenly lost his mind. For a second she could have swore it was Pytora offering her words of encouragement. After a moment though, she felt the truth of Kesan's words and smiled. "Thank you. Now, enough of this seriousness, let's find something to eat."
