Physical Description: Etina has waist long, dusky auburnn hair, which she wears in a single braid wound around the back of her head, and emerald green eyes which change in shade slighty to match her mood. Her wardrobe consists mainly of ankle long, divided riding skirts and bare middrift tops that hook or lace down the front. She often wears a dark blue cloak over this. Her favored footwear is a pair of vrown boots that lace up almost to her knees and have soft, thick soles that pad silently on hard floors. She is rarely seen without her bow or staff, and she has a scar on the inside of her right forearm which can only be seen when she removes her armguards. She is left handed, but she favors her right arm only slightly. Etina is an extremely slender and petite young woman, and she allows people to underestimate her due to her appearance and small size. She is a well honed fighter and an expert in hand to hand combat. 

Background: Etina was born on a planet called Tendreha, a small planet much of which is covered in lakes and forests. She has a twin sister named Kianna and two younger siblings called Capuno and Kaiselen, also twins. She and her family lived on Tendreha with their parents until this year when their parents were killed in an attack by the 2nd Empire. Neither she nor her siblings had had any formal training in the Force until the death of their parents, who had been giving their children informal training. By the time Etina was fifteen her Force powers were beginning to frighten her. She stopped using the Force altogether and focased on other skills, saying she refused to mess with forces she couldn't understand. When her parents died, Etina's twin sister decided to take what remained of their family to Yavin IV to begin formal training. After an intense argument with her sister, Etina agreed to acompany them, although she still refuses to use the Force. Her family tries to convince her to continue her training, but she refused, remaining on Yavin IV to be close to her family and to develop her other abilities. 

Personality: Etina is strong willed and she can be extremley stubborn. She is very loyal to her family and protective of her younger brother and sister. She is a strong empath, so she sympathizes with any creature in pain and dislikes oppresion of any kind. She harbors a strong dislike of the Empire not only because it was responsible for her parent's deaths, but because its very nature goes against her ideals and beliefs. Etina is often mercurial in her emotions, and she sometimes reacts strangely to different situations, especially if she feels overwhelmed. She favors archaic weapons and her slight stature allows her to develop great speed. She is an expert in hand to hand combat, and has a great amount of stamina and endurance. She is not easily swayed once she has made up her mind on something. 

Objectives: Etina wants to keep what remains of her family safe and happy and to provide assistance to those in need. She hates the slavey and anything resembling slavery and values her freedom and the freedom of others. She believes that everyone, reguardless of species, should hav ethe chance to live in satisfaction, without fear. 

Quote: "A rock does not become a rose simply because everyone (but me) calls it a rose. It is still a rock.“

Miscellaneous: Etina favors archaic weapons, especially the bow, and hand to hand combat and she enjoys pushing herself physicaly. Although she can use the force, she refuses to do so, for reasons known only  to her. She does  occasionaly use it under stress, but she avoids  using it as much as possible. She is sensitive to other people's emotions. She is sometimes unpredictable and she will not tolerate anything that threatens her brother and sisters. She is an expert in evasive manuvers, a skill she picked up while sparring with her siblings on the planet of her birth. She is also an excellent swimmer and can swim long distances without tireing.
