Name:Asa Tan
Race:Nautolan
Age:15
Birthplace:Glee Anselm
Allegiance:Jedi Order
Status:Jedi
Rank:Padawan
Height/Weight: 5’ 6” 130lb
Appearance:
Like all nautolans, Asa has multiple head-tresses that reach down to her upper back. She has large black eyes that rarely blink like the rest of her species. Her skin is a blue color and she has an athletic body type that is quite flexible. She’s still growing slightly and her head-tresses will grow a bit longer, but in all she’s pretty much done growing.
Her head-tresses each have one silver colored band around them. Most of the time she keeps them all back behind her head with plane leather straps to avoid injury or distraction, but when in the water she lets them flow freely. Her clothing consists of lose fitting clothing over a tighter modified suit for swimming. Her clothing is mostly the browns and whites of a regular jedi robe, but she holds it all together with a blue cloth tied around her waist.
Personality: Asa has a knack for creating things. She calms herself by doodling on the leather bands around her head-tresses, her datapad, or any other material she can get her hands on. Her creativity also helps her look at a situation in a new light and find a new solution. She does well under pressure and reacting to a situation. She isn’t one to make up a detailed plan right away, but prefers to make a more general plan with backups in case something goes wrong. When surprised she’ll adjust easily to the new situation. Asa has always cared about other’s feelings, and she’s better able to read people because of her head-tresses. Aside from biological advantages though, Asa has always been able to tell when someone is upset.
Asa holds herself to a high set honor system. Never initiate an attack if your opponent has their back turned, never kick someone when their down, accept the consequences for your actions. She respects her elders and those in higher positions than her. However just because she holds herself to honor, doesn’t mean she always does what is right. She hates to give up on anything, no matter how big or small. Unfortunately, while this can help her in most situations it can also slow her down or put her in dangerous situations. She isn’t one to give up a chase or a lesson, leaving her stuck in the same spot for a while. She isn’t one to be deterred by a potentially dangerous or risky situation. Asa would rather face a problem head on and not worry about her wellbeing in the process.
Asa cares very deeply for those she’s close to. She will do what she can to ensure their safety and happiness. She hates to wait, for anything. Sitting around and doing nothing bugs her to all end and makes it hard for her to focus. She rarely sees the use in being patient and observing a situation before engaging. Asa can be very impulsive, acting on a whim in a situation. She doesn’t always think before acting, and can do something that she regrets later.
It’s not too hard to annoy Asa, as she has a short temper. She’ll try and calm herself, but sometimes she makes a rude or sarcastic comment, and very rarely might lash out physically.

Biography:
Pre-Discovery
Asa’s father was a former nautolan jedi named Elgo Tan. He lived as a jedi for the first part of his life, until on a diplomatic protection mission he met another nautolan named Nim Kelon who was on the crew of the transport shuttle. They quickly fell in love and a few months later Elgo resigned from the jedi order. They were married and moved back to Glee Anselm where they started a family. However Elgo had already decided that he owed a debt of gratitude to the jedi order for teaching him and putting him on the mission where he met Nim. He talked with his wife and they decided that one of their future children would become a jedi.
Thier first two children, Savlon and Rill, both had average midichlorian counts. Then Asa was born, and with her birth came the announcement that she had a high midichlorian count. Despite already making the decision to give Asa to the jedi order, Nim was hesitant to give up her little girl. However, Elgo managed to convince her that Asa would do greater things as a jedi than she could ever do living a normal life. Nim agreed only if she could raise her child for a time.
Asa was raised by her parents on Glee Anselm until the age of four. Those years were spent with a loving family that taught her well. She learned the nautolan language primarily and her father spent time with her teaching her the basics of the force. She found it amusing to levitate small toys and objects, but never improved beyond that in her first years. Her father also taught her about honor, a concept that a young Asa latched on to quite early. A few days after her fourth birthday Elgo contacted an old friend in the jedi order named Daill Ruahd. The mon-calamari master arrived quickly and met Asa. He took her back to Coruscant that night.
Youngling Years
Asa’s years as a youngling consisted of learning the basics of the universe and being a jedi. She learned galactic-basic along with the history of the republic and jedi order. Unfortunately, Asa found her basic classes somewhat boring, but had great fun in learning the art of combat. She felt natural with a lightsaber in her hand, however when it came to mastering force techniques she struggled. She could accomplish them, but it took her greater time and focus, and she often became frustrated. It was after frustration that she found art as a way to relieve stress, creating strings of beads or drawing intricate patterns on the bands around her head-tresses or anything else she could get her hands on.
Asa got along well with her classmates, but she became close to three in particular. The first and oldest of the group was a gungan male named Fliak Sint, the second was a female bothan named Gnal Lorret, and the youngest being a male zabrak named Samus Keko. The four of them bonded despite their different interests. They all helped each other with assignments and would almost always pair up during sparring. Asa got along particularly well with Gnal, who was not only a roommate, but one of the few people to be able to help Asa meditate. Thier group would often compete as each held a bit of healthy competition in their hearts.
Padawan
Gnal was the first to become a padawan at the age of ten, and Samus soon followed her. Fliak was often considered too aggressive in practice, so at the age of thirteen he was sent to the jedi corps. When she was eleven, Asa met with jedi master Roccrime, a middle aged twi-lek. The two got along well as Roccrime’s gentle but firm outlook was a good balance to Asa’s spirit. He decided to take her on as his second padawan. Roccrime taught Asa how to focus and adapt to a situation, while helping her learn to calm her temper.
As expected, Asa flourished with lightsaber combat however Roccrime decided that she wouldn’t create her own lightsaber until a later age. Asa was disappointed, but decided that the best way to prove she was ready was to master her techniques. She spent part most of her free time practicing her saber abilities and sparring with other students.
At one point, Roccrime was asked to handle a delicate political situation in the outer rim. Because of Asa’s age and inexperience, Roccrime decided it would be best if she stayed behind. Asa waited for him by occupying her time with anything she could find to do. However, when Roccrime finally did come home it was in a medical transport. The situation had turned violent, and Roccrime had been caught in a terrorist attack. While defending the civilians he had been severely wounded.
Asa spent as much time as she could with her wounded master. When he finally recovered he had a limp and was quite a bit physically slower. Despite Asa’s protests, he decided that it would be best if the young padawan had a master that could keep up with her in training.
Roleplay Sample:
No matter how hard she tried, Asa couldn’t sleep. She tossed and turned on bed but she just could not sleep. It was more than anxiety, the blue nautolan had been nervous since Roccrime left, but this was something else. This feeling gnawed at the pit of her stomach leaving here with nothing but a bottomless hole where all of her sleep seemed to run. This, was fear.
Asa didn’t know why she was afraid, but she knew something wasn’t right. Finally she gave up on the notion of sleep and slipped on a robe. Quietly she snuck out of her room and quietly down to hall as to avoid waking anyone else. She didn’t know where she was going, but she followed the feeling in her gut until she realized she was heading towards the entrance.
She shivered when she reached the main entrance realizing that she had forgotten shoes in her room, but she couldn’t make herself go back. She stared at the doors, waiting for… something. Asa grunted in frustration. None of this made sense! She should be back in her room sleeping the night away so that she wouldn’t be tired when Roccrime got back. Then Asa realized. It was Roccrime. Something was wrong with her master, something horrible. She started to pace trying to think of what it could be or where he was or any kind of impossible horrible thing that could have happened, but was it really so impossible?
Right before she thought she might collapse from worry Asa heard the doors fling open and hurried feet rush in. They were barking orders and pulling a prone figure on a stretcher towards the medical bay. Asa recognized the red skin of her master on the stretcher and ran as fast as her legs could go.
“What happened to him?” Asa shouted to the first person she reached.
The duros healer stopped and looked down at Asa. Her red eyes scanned the padawan as if she was identifying her. “Are you Asa Tan?”
Asa looked as the group took her master through a door and out of sight her chest tight as she looked back to the healer. “Yes, and that’s my master.” She said panicky. “What’s wrong, what happened to him?”
The woman hung her head briefly then locked eyes with Asa. “Master Roccrime was injured while defending civilians in a terrorist attack.”
Asa shook her head. “No, he was on a diplomatic mission. He shouldn’t have been in danger.”
“I’m sorry young one, but the situation became hostile.”
Asa’s head spun. She had seen him only a week ago, he had been fine. She knew he was strong, so if he was being carried in… “Will he survive?”
The duros sighed and put her hands on Asa’s shoulders. “We cannot be sure at this point, but we will do everything we can.”
Asa’s breath hitched in her throat and slowly she felt herself sinking to the floor. She just sat there stunned not wanting to accept the fact that her mentor might not wake up, that he might be gone forever. She was so lost in the nothingness that she didn’t notice when she healer slowly left. All she was aware of was that dark hole in her stomach, fear.
