Name: Suzuka Rumo
Race: Human
Age: 23
Height: 5 ft 11 in
Weight: 141 lbs
Appearance: Suzuka is a true beauty of a woman. She had long, golden hair, bright blue eyes, a slender body, and luscious curves. She isn't one who is to hide her looks either, and even uses them to her advantage if she needs to.
Her clothing is relatively simple, if meant for someone who would be younger. She acts less than her age, so she doesn't really care. Clothing normally consists of a sleeveless white blouse, a short battle skirt, and pants. White with gold trim arm warmers, held in place at her hand by a single loop on her middle fingers, and reach up to just past her elbows. She wears a pair of leather boots, and a leather strip on her left arm to cover a scar she got when she was younger. She is one of the most flexible people one would meet, which explains her unrestricted, if slightly relieving, clothing.
Suzuka, when going on any mission, wears a gold chest and back piece of armor as her sole protection. Half the time, either when in a fight, exercising, or just for a different look, she puts her hair up in a high ponytail. Even then, her hair is long enough to reach down to her lower back.
Personality: Brash, outgoing, random, cocky and even loud, Suzuka is a wildfire. She isn't one to sit idly when something is going on, and always speaks her mind. If she doesn't like someone or something, she will let them know. When in a new place, she is jumpy, bubbly, and very curious. She doesn't care what people think of her, and Suzuka loves to have fun.
When meeting someone she doesn't know, she will proceed to damn near overload them with questions, if she likes them enough. If she doesn't take a liking to them, then she sill pretty much leave them be, or tell them off. One would think that with her little attitude, she would have a pull to the darkside, but she doesn't. She has a very pure heart. She will do whatever it takes to protect her friends, and anyone who needs it, even if it is someone she doesn't like.
If she does find someone she doesn't like, Suzuka usually holds and attitude with them and shows that she doesn't like them. She even, from time to time, provoke that person, if she sees them, even if she doesn't mean too. Suzuka loves sweets, and tries to get them when she can. As she grew older, Suzuka also found it harder and harder to stay in one place for any amount of time, and feels that she needs to be running around everywhere.

Bio: Chapter I: Young and hard-pressed. (Age null-11)[/color]
Miss Suzuka Rumo was born to a politician father and a secret lover to him, who was his secretary. The politicians wife was in the room when the message came over the comm terminal with the doctor conferming the DNA tests. One thing led to another, and in a factor and Suzuka's father lost his job and went to live on the street. Suzuka's mother also lost her job, and as soon as Suzuka was born, she brought her before the Jedi, and as it turned out, she was sensitive in the force. A short time later, Suzuka was on her way to Dantooine, rather than Coruscant.
Even as an infant and toddler, it was apparent that Suzuka wasn't the strongest contender when it came to using the force. In fact, her master's had to take extra time to help her with the initial developing of the force. Suzuka was, however very bright, and aced her studies in math, history, and whatever else her master's asked of her, with the exception of the force. They made the assumption that even though Suzuka was a child, she knew that she needed some way to keep a foothold with the other initiates.
As Suzuka grew older, her masters began to thing that she had a photographic memory because they found it hard to stump her on what they studied, no matter how long ago. It could have been true or not, because, sense they were not allowed to practice any combat, Suzuka just studied. Though Suzuka was good at the more philosophical aspects of being a Jedi, she didn't care for it, nor did she have the strength in the force. Suzuka really didn't begin to shine until she turned 7, when everyone was able to begin training with weapons, such as training sabers.
Suzuka, her masters determined, was meant to be a weapon specialist-type Jedi. It was about the only thing that Suzuka excelled in, as there were smarter kids than her, but she was initially, and throughout the entire cycle, one of the best combat younglings. Suzuka worked as hard as she could to be the best at not only lightsaber combat, but any form of combat. Suzuka even got caught, on more than one occasion, working her body rather than meditating. She was reprimanded because of those instances.
A little after the age of 8, Suzuka was a protege when it came to weapons, and was quite flexible, and perceptive to danger. Suzuka's skills only got better as she grew older; even her abilities with the force began to flourish slowly, but they were more attuned to aiding in combat. It would be years until they really showed, but any small one up was good for her.
As the years went on, the Initiate trials began to close on Suzuka. She already had the Jedi code memorized, but Its true meaning constantly escaped the young girl. Master's also had the younglings practice assemble and disassemble a lightsaber, over and over again for the trials. Suzuka proved to be the quickest and most efficient at this little activity, and could do it in a meditative state, which would come in useful as she grew older.
At the age of 11, Suzuka was put through the Jedi Initiate Trials. Through hard work and sheer determination, she passed the first two parts of her trial. For the final part, Suzuka was made to meditate, and find her inner darkness. For nearly a day, the young girl meditated, and fought against her inner darkness.
This internal fight was quite different than what Suzuka would think: but only Suzuka would ever know what happened: to her, it was more like a vision. The world began as solid black, but then materialized to the landscape of Dantooine. Suzuka was armed with a single katana, which was laying on the ground next to her.
When Suzuka rose with the sword in her hand, she saw, standing a mere 3 meters from her, a completely inverted version of her, also holding a katana. For minutes, neither moved, but just looked at each other, then, at the same time, attacked. Suzuka couldn't land a blow on herself, who began to taunt her, and attack with force power's that Suzuka was unable to perform. The fight was short, but Suzuka managed to win, and that purified her heart.
Suzuka woke up on the ground, and after a brief talk with the master's present, told her that nearly 24 hours has passed sense Suzuka began her meditation, and that she managed to get past her darkside; her self doubt, she was worthy to be called a padawan.
Chapter II: The apprenticeship (Age 11-21)[/color]
Suzuka had to wait nearly two months before she was able to be assigned under a Jedi. Her master was a Twi'lek who was just over the peak of her prime and who was almost to the rank of Master. This master's name was Flu'xizuul, better known as Flux Izuul, and she was very much like an older Suzuka. She excelled in combat, but, unlike Suzuka, was also skilled in the force, despite being of the Guardian class. After meeting her, they traveled to the larger temple on Coruscant, because this was where her Master felt most comfortable training new padawans.
This woman would prove to be one of the best teacher's Suzuka ever worked under, and the red skinned woman brought out the best in Suzuka. Long story short, Flux, in 11 years, made Suzuka into one of the greatest combatant for her age, which was amplified by what she could manage from the force.
Flux knew exactly what to do to help out with Suzuka, as she had to go through something similar when she was younger. Much of the time was spent in the temple, and Flux was continuously training Suzuka in the aspect of control, where she needed it most, and where it would be most crucial to the young woman. The focal point used by Flux was altus sopor in an effort to better the link between Suzuka and the force. Indeed it helped, but not as much as Flux wished.
When not meditating or working on Suzuka's connection with the force, Flux was continuously drilling Suzuka to move faster and hit harder. When they stopped for breaks. Flux would often, and repeatedly go over complicated fighting styled that pushed Suzuka's speed and flexibility to the limit, and, after a while, it started to have results. Suzuka was showing more and more flexibility to her fighting, and the obstacle courses were becoming easier and easier for Suzuka.
Around the age of 13, Flux began to show Suzuka how to use different weapons, rather than solely a lightsaber. It was a simple sword, but it was more weight than Suzuka was use to throwing around, and, to her, harder to control and attack with. The basic's were the same, which was nice, and it made things easy for Suzuka to adapt to.
The majority of the training, however, was spent on lightsabers. Through trial and error, it became apparent that Suzuka worked best with two lightsabers, as her speed and flexibility were best suited for that. Not long after that discovery, Flux brought Suzuka to Dantooine, where the wide open spaces were well suited for Suzuka. The nearby Jedi enclave also made teaching Suzuka easier, as it allowed friendly sparing matches.
By the time Suzuka was 15, about the only real force skill that Suzuka could manage without extreme effort on her part was Force Valor, which was best suited to her combat style. She could only hold it for a short time: three minutes at best, so she had to win the fight fast, or else be subjected to a weaker body and true lack of force power's
Suzuka was shown some Ataru forms of combat, which was useful for dispatching foes, and it also used the Niman/Jar'kai that Suzuka was becoming adept in. The form also helped mitigate the large weakness that Jar'kai held. Ataru became Suzuka's primary form for single lightsaber combat, when forced to do that, and she applied it to her Jar'kai style whenever possible. This gave Suzuka a wide birth of offensive and defensive skills.
At the age of 16, Flux brought Suzuka to Ilum where she was to create her first lightsaber. On their transport, Suzuka had fabricated her lightsaber parts, as thats what Flux wished. In addition, Flux also mirrored what Suzuka was doing, making a lightsaber hilt that matched what Suzuka had perfectly.
On the frozen planet, in deep meditation, Suzuka meditated on not one crystal, but two, as Flux gifted that saber hilt to Suzuka for her fighting style. It took twice as long, but the hard work paid off as Suzuka had two, deep blue bladed lightsabers. In addition, the hilt Suzuka got from her proud master was for a dual phased lightsaber, which was a bonus Suzuka thought, but it would also require more practice with.
Up until the age of 18, Suzuka and Flux remained on Dantooine, honing Suzuka's saber skills. Seeing as there was no war going on, and relative peace flourished in the galaxy, this was allowed by the masters both on Coruscant and on Dantooine. The young woman flourished with the extra training, and she grew just as deadly as she did beautiful. In the space of two years, Suzuka went from being a child who was just discovering her body to a beautiful woman.
Suzuka was, as her master found out during their long trips around the galaxy, a little trouble maker, as well as someone who parties a little too hard. They had two stops on Zeltros, once when Suzuka was 19, and again when she was 20, each time for no more than a few days. Each time they were there, Suzuka fell under the influence of the Zeltron people, which led her to party and drink until she she ill for two days.
Most often, they found themselves on Coruscant, where they were needed most. The majority of the missions that Suzuka and Flux had, though, were no more that courier missions from the Jedi Temple to the Senate tower, or somewhere else important. However, there were a few missions in which they had to chase down or work with local law enforcement so they could arrest a few criminals who were stealing items from some of the larger companies on Coruscant.
There was one mission which Suzuka would never be able to forget: it was a long chase with a great fight at the end, or so the woman thought. Suzuka and Flux were sent to go find the culprit or culprits who have been steal speeders from the Senate Tower. The person or persons have been able to avoid all law enforcement up to that point. For four days, they sat and watched the most common spot for the theft, noting each car that went in and out, and at what time.
They got a lucky break when one went out that, usually, wouldn't have left for another three hours. Flux had Suzuka tail it on its long journey through The Works and to some random freighter pad. Suzuka dismounted and sent word to her Master that she found out where the speeders have been taken. Slowly, she made her way towards where they were, but luck was not with her. As she made it within 300 meters from her target, she was discovered.
She put up a fight, but was captured in the end, and had her lightsabers taken away, and she was brought to the freighter, where not only that one speeder was, but a number of them. Someone unknown ordered her to be sent into the brig. Two guards brought her there, but as soon as the opened the door to put her in, she threw her legs up, kicked off the door frame, and knocked out one of the guards on the back wall. Before the second one could do anything more than gape at the Jedi woman, she roundhouse kicked his head into the same wall, knocking him out.
Suzuka took a set of keys from them, freed her hands from the bindings, grabbed a simple stun stick, and made for freedom. She moved slowly and quietly, listening for footsteps of oncoming personal, and made her move from there. Each time she did hear someone, she would hide in an random room. More than once, she had to tag a few people with the stun stick to keep them from giving her position away.
Suzuka must have missed someone because before she even had a chance to make it out, the alarm went off signalling there was an intruder. She turned tail and went to find the bridge, as that was marked as to where it was thanks to whoever owned this freighter. Suzuka met up with a few unarmored guards, which earned her a cut on her leg, but besides them, it was quiet, up until she reached the bridge.
There were five people there: the, she assumed, captain, and four armored and armed guards. The captain, a male Zeltron, was twirling one of her lightsabers in his fingers, and smiling weakly. Out the front windows, Suzuka saw her master with a group of Coruscant Security forces, ready to assault the place. As soon as she saw someone haul up a rocket launcher, she turned tail and sprinted out the door, blaster bolts on her tail. It closed just as the explosion went off, which is when she turned around again and went back. The captain was still alive, and getting back to his feet. Suzuka used the force to call her lightsabers to her hands, and the captain pulled out a vibrosword.
The man and Suzuka collided in a wave of sparks and sound as their two weapons collided. The man's vibrosword had a weave of lightsaber resistant material in it, so they were able to duel to the extreme. With fires and hot metal around them, the two dueled, Suzuka with two lightsaber's and the man with his single vibrosword. The man seemed to be playing around with the young Jedi, and Suzuka obtained numerous small cuts to her extremities, but fought on until her master showed up. When she did, the odds were turned, at least for a moment before the man pulled out a flashbang grenade and tossed it at Flux. The instant he did, Suzuka attacked, stabbing the man through his gut and taking his blade to her side. Still, the battle was won, and that was all that mattered. She blacked out and woke up a while later in a kolto tank.
Suzuka spent a small while in the kolto tank healing her wounds, then, after she was ready, traveled to Dantooine. While there, she worked on hand to hand combat mainly, working up her skills so she wouldn't be bested in a fight without her lightsabers, as well as do quite a bit of studying on the Jedi in general, just to get her knowledge back up.
At the age of 21, Dantooine was hit by Sith forces in a mass invasion against that planet, as well as several other planets. The duo was part of the defense against them, helping evacuate the younglings and younger padawans. It didn't last long, as Sith forces broke through, forcing those who were helping with the evacuation to the offensive against the Sith.
With her Master, Suzuka fought a handful of highly trained soldiers and droids who were very, very skilled in combat. It took both of them to just hold them off. In the fight, Suzuka took a hit to her arm, wounding her and almost taking her out of the fight, if she was only able to use that one arm. That was enough for the Sith to get the upper hand. Flux took it upon herself to fight the Sith, forcing Suzuka to escape. A sonic grenade threw Suzuka towards the exit, taking her fully out of the fight: She broke her ankle and earned a large lump on the head upon landing. Suzuka was dazed when she landed, and she hurt. When she got her senses back, she turned tail and limped to the allied forces, where she boarded a shuttle, and made it off the planet.
Suzuka stayed in the med-bay the entire time, and slept most of it, save for just after they entered hyperspace when she felt her master's life force etched away. The next time Suzuka woke up was in the turbulence of atmospheric reentry. Looking out the window, Suzuka recognized the scenery that was Coruscant, and a safe place. When she finally left the shuttle, she was given two days in a bacta tank to heal her head, arm, and ankle, but she still had a scar on her arm. She was fine with that, as it was a reminder of what she carried after loosing her master.
For the next couple of months, Suzuka remained on Coruscant: Her ankle still paining her, Suzuka spent much of her free time studying different aspects of being a Jedi, as well as some finer points of lightsaber combat. She did get in at least four sparring matches a week, and her ankle wound helped lengthen the time she could use Force Valor, and refine her defense skills with little to no movement.
After Suzuka turned 22, she had mostly recovered from the loss of her master, as well as beat down depression, and felt that she was ready to continue on with her life. The Jedi agreed, and allowed her to take on the Jedi Trials, even if she no longer had a master.
Already, Suzuka had completed, in the Master's eyes, two of the four tests: The Trial of the Flesh, for getting her ass handed to her by a Sith Lord and loosing her master in that same fight, and the Test of Courage, for standing up to the Freighter Captain and the Sith Lord with minimal support. That left just two more tests.
The trial of Skill consisted of Suzuka fighting against one of the Jedi Battlemaster with training sabers, and the point was to outlast his attacks for X amount of time, with minimal wounds. As soon as the three sabers, two used by Suzuka and one by the Master, Suzuka knew she was outmatched, but still put forth all of her training and knowledge to use.
The Master would have had little problems getting past Suzuka's defense, even her X block defense. Within five minutes, the Master stripped Suzuka of her offhanded saber, forcing her to change up how she fought. She fell into Ataru, which threw the Master off for a split second. It wasn't enough to go on a full offensive, not that it would matter, but she did get in a few good slaps before she was back on the defense.
In 7 minutes, Suzuka lost her second lightsaber, and was forced to keep away. She had speed and flexibility on her side, so was able to just get by the training saber until she managed to get to one of her tossed sabers. As soon as she did, she got it up just in time to block an attack, and then then the bell went off. All the master had to do was tilt his saber, and she would have been dead, but Suzuka outlasted him, and therefore passed the trial.
The final one was the Trial of the Spirit. Suzuka was sat down in a quiet meditation area, with only one Master to over-watch her. Slowly, she fell deeper and deeper into her meditation, until she was unaware of her surroundings.
It was then that the Sith soldiers who killed her master came out of the darkness. In slow motion, he attacked, forcing Suzuka to bring up her lightsabers. It was a brief duel, but Suzuka got an attack that should have slices off a chunk of his face. Instead, it pealed off, showing half of her face, and half of Flux's. In surprise, she sliced at the body, severing the head, and bringing herself back to her body, safe and sound, as she overcame herself, and what has haunted her for the past year.
The trial of spirit, the masters told her, was different for everyone. Suzuka was asked to say what it was about, and how she interpreted it. After telling them what she saw, she said she interpreted it as overcame the darkness that hid in her heart after she fled the battle with them and her master, as well as defeating the shame she felt her master would have held for her. She felt better with herself after that day.
Two days later, Suzuka was officially knighted, and was able to remove the braid that signified that she was a padawan, and was fully welcomed into the Ranks as a Jedi Knight, and a Guardian. Now she was free to take on her own Padawan, and help battle the Sith who killed her master.
RP Sample:Things have become routine for Suzuka by now: wake up, get ready for her day, limp to eat, study, eat, get in a little bit of exercise, meditate, then sleep. She would then repeat that entire process the next day. Dantooine hit her hard, and she couldn't forget about her late master, and how she gave her life to save not only her, but many others as she held off a powerful Sith. Suzuka didn't even stand a chance against him, even with her master's support.
Tears streamed down Suzuka's cheeks and into her bowl of food as she re-accounted the past events. Two months: Two month had past sense the fall of Dantooine. Two months sense she survived and her master died. It wasn't fair. Suzuka regained her composure, got rid of her food, and went back to her room, where she, once again, broke down in tears and cried for past events.

Around the age of 13, Flux began to show Suzuka how to use different weapons, rather than solely a lightsaber. It was a simple sword, but it was more weight than Suzuka was use to throwing around, and, to her, harder to control and attack with. The basic's were the same, which was nice, and it made things easy for Suzuka to adapt to.
The majority of the training, however, was spent on lightsabers. Through trial and error, it became apparent that Suzuka worked best with two lightsabers, as her speed and flexibility were best suited for that. Not long after that discovery, Flux brought Suzuka to Dantooine, where the wide open spaces were well suited for Suzuka. The nearby Jedi enclave also made teaching Suzuka easier, as it allowed friendly sparing matches.
By the time Suzuka was 15, about the only real force skill that Suzuka could manage without extreme effort on her part was Force Valor, which was best suited to her combat style. She could only hold it for a short time: three minutes at best, so she had to win the fight fast, or else be subjected to a weaker body and true lack of force power's
Suzuka was shown some Ataru forms of combat, which was useful for dispatching foes, and it also used the Niman/Jar'kai that Suzuka was becoming adept in. The form also helped mitigate the large weakness that Jar'kai held. Ataru became Suzuka's primary form for single lightsaber combat, when forced to do that, and she applied it to her Jar'kai style whenever possible. This gave Suzuka a wide birth of offensive and defensive skills.
At the age of 16, Flux brought Suzuka to Ilum where she was to create her first lightsaber. On their transport, Suzuka had fabricated her lightsaber parts, as thats what Flux wished. In addition, Flux also mirrored what Suzuka was doing, making a lightsaber hilt that matched what Suzuka had perfectly.
On the frozen planet, in deep meditation, Suzuka meditated on not one crystal, but two, as Flux gifted that saber hilt to Suzuka for her fighting style. It took twice as long, but the hard work paid off as Suzuka had two, deep blue bladed lightsabers. In addition, the hilt Suzuka got from her proud master was for a dual phased lightsaber, which was a bonus Suzuka thought, but it would also require more practice with.
Up until the age of 18, Suzuka and Flux remained on Dantooine, honing Suzuka's saber skills. Seeing as there was no war going on, and relative peace flourished in the galaxy, this was allowed by the masters both on Coruscant and on Dantooine. The young woman flourished with the extra training, and she grew just as deadly as she did beautiful. In the space of two years, Suzuka went from being a child who was just discovering her body to a beautiful woman.
Suzuka was, as her master found out during their long trips around the galaxy, a little trouble maker, as well as someone who parties a little too hard. They had two stops on Zeltros, once when Suzuka was 19, and again when she was 20, each time for no more than a few days. Each time they were there, Suzuka fell under the influence of the Zeltron people, which led her to party and drink until she she ill for two days.
Most often, they found themselves on Coruscant, where they were needed most. The majority of the missions that Suzuka and Flux had, though, were no more that courier missions from the Jedi Temple to the Senate tower, or somewhere else important. However, there were a few missions in which they had to chase down or work with local law enforcement so they could arrest a few criminals who were stealing items from some of the larger companies on Coruscant.
There was one mission which Suzuka would never be able to forget: it was a long chase with a great fight at the end, or so the woman thought. Suzuka and Flux were sent to go find the culprit or culprits who have been steal speeders from the Senate Tower. The person or persons have been able to avoid all law enforcement up to that point. For four days, they sat and watched the most common spot for the theft, noting each car that went in and out, and at what time.
They got a lucky break when one went out that, usually, wouldn't have left for another three hours. Flux had Suzuka tail it on its long journey through The Works and to some random freighter pad. Suzuka dismounted and sent word to her Master that she found out where the speeders have been taken. Slowly, she made her way towards where they were, but luck was not with her. As she made it within 300 meters from her target, she was discovered.
She put up a fight, but was captured in the end, and had her lightsabers taken away, and she was brought to the freighter, where not only that one speeder was, but a number of them. Someone unknown ordered her to be sent into the brig. Two guards brought her there, but as soon as the opened the door to put her in, she threw her legs up, kicked off the door frame, and knocked out one of the guards on the back wall. Before the second one could do anything more than gape at the Jedi woman, she roundhouse kicked his head into the same wall, knocking him out.
Suzuka took a set of keys from them, freed her hands from the bindings, grabbed a simple stun stick, and made for freedom. She moved slowly and quietly, listening for footsteps of oncoming personal, and made her move from there. Each time she did hear someone, she would hide in an random room. More than once, she had to tag a few people with the stun stick to keep them from giving her position away.
Suzuka must have missed someone because before she even had a chance to make it out, the alarm went off signalling there was an intruder. She turned tail and went to find the bridge, as that was marked as to where it was thanks to whoever owned this freighter. Suzuka met up with a few unarmored guards, which earned her a cut on her leg, but besides them, it was quiet, up until she reached the bridge.
There were five people there: the, she assumed, captain, and four armored and armed guards. The captain, a male Zeltron, was twirling one of her lightsabers in his fingers, and smiling weakly. Out the front windows, Suzuka saw her master with a group of Coruscant Security forces, ready to assault the place. As soon as she saw someone haul up a rocket launcher, she turned tail and sprinted out the door, blaster bolts on her tail. It closed just as the explosion went off, which is when she turned around again and went back. The captain was still alive, and getting back to his feet. Suzuka used the force to call her lightsabers to her hands, and the captain pulled out a vibrosword.
The man and Suzuka collided in a wave of sparks and sound as their two weapons collided. The man's vibrosword had a weave of lightsaber resistant material in it, so they were able to duel to the extreme. With fires and hot metal around them, the two dueled, Suzuka with two lightsaber's and the man with his single vibrosword. The man seemed to be playing around with the young Jedi, and Suzuka obtained numerous small cuts to her extremities, but fought on until her master showed up. When she did, the odds were turned, at least for a moment before the man pulled out a flashbang grenade and tossed it at Flux. The instant he did, Suzuka attacked, stabbing the man through his gut and taking his blade to her side. Still, the battle was won, and that was all that mattered. She blacked out and woke up a while later in a kolto tank.
Suzuka spent a small while in the kolto tank healing her wounds, then, after she was ready, traveled to Dantooine. While there, she worked on hand to hand combat mainly, working up her skills so she wouldn't be bested in a fight without her lightsabers, as well as do quite a bit of studying on the Jedi in general, just to get her knowledge back up.
At the age of 21, Dantooine was hit by Sith forces in a mass invasion against that planet, as well as several other planets. The duo was part of the defense against them, helping evacuate the younglings and younger padawans. It didn't last long, as Sith forces broke through, forcing those who were helping with the evacuation to the offensive against the Sith.
With her Master, Suzuka fought a handful of highly trained soldiers and droids who were very, very skilled in combat. It took both of them to just hold them off. In the fight, Suzuka took a hit to her arm, wounding her and almost taking her out of the fight, if she was only able to use that one arm. That was enough for the Sith to get the upper hand. Flux took it upon herself to fight the Sith, forcing Suzuka to escape. A sonic grenade threw Suzuka towards the exit, taking her fully out of the fight: She broke her ankle and earned a large lump on the head upon landing. Suzuka was dazed when she landed, and she hurt. When she got her senses back, she turned tail and limped to the allied forces, where she boarded a shuttle, and made it off the planet.
Suzuka stayed in the med-bay the entire time, and slept most of it, save for just after they entered hyperspace when she felt her master's life force etched away. The next time Suzuka woke up was in the turbulence of atmospheric reentry. Looking out the window, Suzuka recognized the scenery that was Coruscant, and a safe place. When she finally left the shuttle, she was given two days in a bacta tank to heal her head, arm, and ankle, but she still had a scar on her arm. She was fine with that, as it was a reminder of what she carried after loosing her master.
For the next couple of months, Suzuka remained on Coruscant: Her ankle still paining her, Suzuka spent much of her free time studying different aspects of being a Jedi, as well as some finer points of lightsaber combat. She did get in at least four sparring matches a week, and her ankle wound helped lengthen the time she could use Force Valor, and refine her defense skills with little to no movement.
After Suzuka turned 22, she had mostly recovered from the loss of her master, as well as beat down depression, and felt that she was ready to continue on with her life. The Jedi agreed, and allowed her to take on the Jedi Trials, even if she no longer had a master.
Already, Suzuka had completed, in the Master's eyes, two of the four tests: The Trial of the Flesh, for getting her ass handed to her by a Sith Lord and loosing her master in that same fight, and the Test of Courage, for standing up to the Freighter Captain and the Sith Lord with minimal support. That left just two more tests.
The trial of Skill consisted of Suzuka fighting against one of the Jedi Battlemaster with training sabers, and the point was to outlast his attacks for X amount of time, with minimal wounds. As soon as the three sabers, two used by Suzuka and one by the Master, Suzuka knew she was outmatched, but still put forth all of her training and knowledge to use.
The Master would have had little problems getting past Suzuka's defense, even her X block defense. Within five minutes, the Master stripped Suzuka of her offhanded saber, forcing her to change up how she fought. She fell into Ataru, which threw the Master off for a split second. It wasn't enough to go on a full offensive, not that it would matter, but she did get in a few good slaps before she was back on the defense.
In 7 minutes, Suzuka lost her second lightsaber, and was forced to keep away. She had speed and flexibility on her side, so was able to just get by the training saber until she managed to get to one of her tossed sabers. As soon as she did, she got it up just in time to block an attack, and then then the bell went off. All the master had to do was tilt his saber, and she would have been dead, but Suzuka outlasted him, and therefore passed the trial.
The final one was the Trial of the Spirit. Suzuka was sat down in a quiet meditation area, with only one Master to over-watch her. Slowly, she fell deeper and deeper into her meditation, until she was unaware of her surroundings.
It was then that the Sith soldiers who killed her master came out of the darkness. In slow motion, he attacked, forcing Suzuka to bring up her lightsabers. It was a brief duel, but Suzuka got an attack that should have slices off a chunk of his face. Instead, it pealed off, showing half of her face, and half of Flux's. In surprise, she sliced at the body, severing the head, and bringing herself back to her body, safe and sound, as she overcame herself, and what has haunted her for the past year.
The trial of spirit, the masters told her, was different for everyone. Suzuka was asked to say what it was about, and how she interpreted it. After telling them what she saw, she said she interpreted it as overcame the darkness that hid in her heart after she fled the battle with them and her master, as well as defeating the shame she felt her master would have held for her. She felt better with herself after that day.
Two days later, Suzuka was officially knighted, and was able to remove the braid that signified that she was a padawan, and was fully welcomed into the Ranks as a Jedi Knight, and a Guardian. Now she was free to take on her own Padawan, and help battle the Sith who killed her master.
RP Sample:Things have become routine for Suzuka by now: wake up, get ready for her day, limp to eat, study, eat, get in a little bit of exercise, meditate, then sleep. She would then repeat that entire process the next day. Dantooine hit her hard, and she couldn't forget about her late master, and how she gave her life to save not only her, but many others as she held off a powerful Sith. Suzuka didn't even stand a chance against him, even with her master's support.
Tears streamed down Suzuka's cheeks and into her bowl of food as she re-accounted the past events. Two months: Two month had past sense the fall of Dantooine. Two months sense she survived and her master died. It wasn't fair. Suzuka regained her composure, got rid of her food, and went back to her room, where she, once again, broke down in tears and cried for past events.
