Hello all. This is Mel (Cinna, Baron, Blaine mun) bringing in my fourth character. Her name is Callista and she's from the Star Wars EU. She's a Jedi from the Old Republic who gave up her life during the Jedi Purge, attached her soul to a the weapons system of a massive ship, met Luke Skywalker 30 years later, fell in love with him and then came back to life. Coming back had a horrible cost for her as her new body lost all contact with the Force.
Her ultimate fate was unknown for a while, but a few books that were released in 2011 explained how she died. Good thing I'm taking her from before then! She's from around 16 ABY (nerd speak for 16 years after the events of A New Hope).
Anyway, for those of you who don't know who she is, she was the very first full fledged female Jedi ever written into Star Wars canon. All the females who had been featured in the movies, comics and books before her who also had access to the Force were either Leia, already long gone, or trainees.
That fact kind of blew me away when I was a kid reading the Star Wars EU. Ever since then, I've really liked her character--despite the fact that she tends to get mixed reviews in the fandom.
But, hey, that's what RP is for right? Playing with characters that speak to you or something.
She's in District 6 and will be arriving right before the new Arena. Fun times.

Above or below ancient undead queens, she can't decide.no subject
She can decide that later. Ariadne's already decided that dreamsharing is still weirder than the Capitol, because she's not sure the Capitol isn't a dream.no subject
