I dug Sen out of the back of my character roster and got her some new clothes. All-purpose civilian gear and some cold-weather creepypasta

Sennith

Sennith actually belongs to Molly over at kotorswtor.

She’s quite the babe, though, so: wanna field this one, @kotorswtor?

TFW Imperial Ilum for a non-human Sith is literally an entire planet worth of being casually shat on by someone you outrank.

and you suspect that it’s to encourage you to sympathize with the “alien-tolerant” third-faction dude you’re working against...but you’ve read his dossier and you know damned well that “alien-tolerant” means he’ll magnanimously tolerate aliens being mass-killed under his command in military actions that don’t make strategic sense, or under his personal metacarpals when he experiences an emotion, depending on how female, pretty, or blue you happen to be.

also sennith :3.

1. The color of their eyesChiss vermillion

2. How old they areShe was born 24 BTC/3677 BBY As of completing the class story, she’s 35.

3. One strange thing/quirk/defining characteristic of their body or physical appearance.Sen’s handlers were afraid she’d be too identifiable as Sith by her carriage/gait if she was given genuine lightsaber training. She’s cobbled together a fighting style out of techniques that were mostly designed for open-hand or conventional melee weapons use. Her colleagues complain that she has “no style” or “fights like a loader droid.”

4. One strange thing/quirk/defining characteristic of their personalityBefore she was loaned to the Empire and her Force sensitivity became evident, Sen wrote onboard AI for small craft for Aratech. She is passionately brand-loyal, and despite usually being reserved, circumspect, and polite, never misses the chance to decry Czerka Corp and their products in the crudest possible terms.

5. How their parents met.Her parents worked in the same division of the patent office. Because of work regs around fraternization, they waited until her mother received a transfer to a different department (about three and a half years) to start doing anything that even vaguely looked like openly courting.

6. Who their first love was, and why they loved themHer homeland and her work, because they were secure and familiar and she felt competent within those bounds.

7. How/why I came up with the concept for themI needed an Impside character but was having a really hard time coming up with a character concept that jived well with the setting. Sen’s the product of that disjunct.

8. Who they eventually end up withIn the mainline continuity, who knows? She’s literally purpose-built by her leadership to be a poor social fit everywhere, and has a big dose of garden-variety introversion and social awkwardness on top of that.In a certain AU, a chance thing in the SW line on Nar Shaddaa, and a surprising amount of cross-faction cooperation written in thereafter resulted in one of those crack pairings that’s too ridiculous but can’t be ignored; Sen defects to the Republic and becomes the partner of Senator Loren Fidelis Luz. The people of Corellia are appropriately skeptical until her presence results in expenditures on his personal security being cut in half.

9. Their favorite animal.Sen’s requisite Sith eccentricity is that she has a lizard bat aerie on her transport. A gift from a certain Padawan was initially responsible, and then she discovered that their aural acuity on different frequencies than most humanoids enabled them to predict small-craft engine failures ahead of most diagnostic equipment.

More on the "so what would happen if your characters were dosed with a drug that forced them to relive their worst memories?" prompt:

Des would probably be experiencing the several hours after (A)She got the news of Vel's death and she'd ascertained that (B)Verne was safe and (C)the assassins weren't running amok around a neutral world population center.  Grief's a rough thing in particular when it's having to do with something sudden and violent, and once you've exhausted your options for hyperfocusing on the practical, helpful things that your training uniquely fits you to do. Expect a lot of unattractive snot-nosed, blotchy-faced, loud sobbing.

Sen would be reliving the day a year or so after she was detailed to Dromund Kaas and a few days after she was abruptly notified that her job description was changing, when she was handed her own Csillan death certificate, notarized by her parents and the head of her household. Either that or, in the AU where that's a thing, the second reverberation of that "no really you can't go back." theme when she chose to kill her former master and aid in the rescue of a much the worse for wear Senator Luz during the siege of Corellia. She'd attempt to keep her mind off of things by tinkering with coding or ship maintenance, but that would give way to mute, staring, near-catatonia

*Considers putting all of Alecto's companions in droid armor to reflect her probable crew situation. Sniffles.*

The Imperial class stories, especially the Sith ones, especially especially Sith Warrior are great for giving you an idea of the constant, grinding paranoia and loneliness you can realistically expect from that line of work. I'm not sure whether Sen's situation (legally dead to her family/friends, discouraged for professional reasons from making any significant social connections in the Empire) or Alecto's (has a complicated relationship with her extant family, any move to protect or reconcile with them risks blowing her cover) is worse.
