[@Fallenreaper] Sure, sorry for the faux pas.

[indent][hider=Dede Battle Robes][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/M1RBGwH.jpg[/img][/center][/hider]
Standing at 177cm (5' 9") barefoot Dede. is slightly shorter than an average Nautolan, but not noticeably so. Her body is highly athletically built due to her hard training exercises and active battle performance.

Dede picked up an appreciation for body art from some of the troopers she's fought alongside over the years and has tattooed several of her tendrils with simple geometric designs. While some believe the round marks are 'kill markers' in truth they are reminders for Dede of the family she left behind and others she has had close relations with in the past.[/indent]
[b]Notable Race Traits:[/b] 
[indent][hider=Amphibious][i]Amphibious:[/i] Having evolved to live a life submerged Nautolans may breath and move while underwater without restriction, and have an innate understanding of water movement and currents while navigating through large natural bodies of water (lakes, oceans, seas.) This knowledge does not extend to rivers, streams or other flowing water, as most Nautolans live in the deeper areas of the oceans and have little experience with these small channels.[/hider]
[hider=Enhanced Sensory Capacity][i]Enhanced Sensory Capacity:[/i] In the standard gaseous environments found on most settled planets Nautolans have an exceptional sense of smell, and although their eyesight is comparably weaker than most other races (making them functionally short-sighted to a range of approximately ten meters) it functions just as well in low light conditions as it does in brightly lit areas.
Finding it difficult to distinguish facial features of other races Nautolans tend to rely on pheromones, and similar chemical traces given off by other races, to determine emotional states.
The fourteen sensory tendrils on their head have evolved to detect water movements within approximately a meter and a half, ensuring Nautolans don't bump into things in close proximity, and work in a similar but less precise manner in gaseous environments.
In aquatic environments Nautolan eyesight is as sharp as any other races' would be in a gaseous environment, and their sensory tendrils give them an acutely accurate reading on everything in their immediate vicinity, however their olfactory senses would be equivalent to any other races' in a gaseous environment while submerged.[/hider]
[hider=Dispersed Cardiac System][i]Dispersed Cardiac System:[/i] Unlike most races Nautolans do not have a centralised cardiac system, instead a series of smaller hearts scattered throughout their bodies help to regulate blood flow. This makes Nautolans more resilient to heart disease and combat damage as they're able to rely on 'back-up' hearts should any one ever stop working for any reason.[/hider][/indent]
[b]Flaws:[/b]
[indent][hider=Battle Worn][i]Battle Worn:[/i] Dede is currently questioning her life choices as long periods of combat against the Sith have led her into a number of morally questionable situations and she isn't certain whether her choices have been the right ones. She has developed a tendency to second-guess herself whenever having to make a moral choice, and this can sometimes cause her to 'freeze up' in tense situations.[/hider]
[hider=In Recovery][i]In Recovery:[/i] Recently Dede suffered crippling damage during battle which necessitated her immediate transfer back to the Jedi Temple for treatment by the Healers. While her wounds have been dealt with, she is still recovering from the ordeal and is not yet up to full combat readiness. Extremely demanding physical acts will take a greater toll on her than other Jedi of her rank and skill level, and will require a longer period to recover from than would normally be required.[/hider]
[hider=Lost Limb][i]Lost Limb:[/i] During the same engagement which left Dede in the medical bay one of the Jedi Knight's sensory tendrils was lost. While this does little to impair her sensory abilities, her other thirteen tendrils easily making up for the loss, it is a constant reminder to Dede just how fragile life is, and how quickly it can be taken away.[/hider][/indent]
[b]Skills:[/b]
[indent][hider=Combat Veteran][i]Combat Veteran:[/i] Having been on the front line against the Sith for most of her career Dede has learnt how to inspire those under her command, marshal resources to support an ongoing campaign and when to make strategic withdrawals when necessary. Her combat experience has left her jaded however as she's had to make judgment calls which have led to the deaths of friends and colleagues more often than she would ever have wanted.[/hider]
[hider=Natural Athlete][i]Natural Athlete:[/i] As with many members of her race Dede is usually more physically active than most other Jedi, using her speed and agility to perform exceptional physical acts even without the use of the Force.[/hider]
[hider=Ataru Striker][i]Ataru Striker:[/i] Given her race's weakness to long-ranged combat Dede learnt how to quickly close the distance with her opponent by using her natural athleticism and the environment to her advantage. Once engaged Dede's rapidly flowing and evasive form of combat allows her to easily weave between her opponent's attacks while striking them with speed and precision.

She wields two blue shoto lightsabers, giving her a great deal of precision when fighting in close-combat, but limiting her ability to block incoming fire at longer ranges. The Kyber crystals are Dantarian in origin, helping Dede to conserve and recover Force energies while fighting and allowing her to make more use of her Force-boosted athleticism.[/hider][/indent]
[b]Force capabilities:[/b]
[indent][hider=Basic Jedi Powers][i]Basic Jedi Powers:[/i] As an experienced Jedi Knight Dede has practical knowledge of the basics [i]Force Speed[/i], [i]Force Jump[/i], [i]Precognition[/i] (Jedi Reflexes), and [i]Telekinesis[/i], however her more combat orientated lifestyle has left her little time to develop her more spiritual and mental powers [i]Force Sight[/i], [i]Force Sense[/i] and [i]Mind Trick[/i].[/hider]
[hider=Advanced Breathing Control and Hibernation Trance][i]Advanced Breathing Control and Hibernation Trance:[/i] Whether partly due to her racial background or not, Dede has shown considerable talent for controlling her breath and vital functions, allowing her to survive for long periods with very limited supplies. She still can't breath vacuum however, and would only last a few minutes in space even if she were able to slip into a trance.[/hider]
[hider=Skilled Telekinetic Whirlwind][i]Advanced Telekinetic Whirlwind:[/i] The flow of water comes as second nature to Dede and it came as no surprise to her instructors when she showed a great aptitude for understanding the flow of air as well. With training Dede learnt how to use her Telekinetic ability to manipulate the air to form whirlwinds capable of trapping an opponent, or throwing objects great distances. Her only problem was that with her poor long-range sight aiming projectiles still remains rather difficult.[/hider]
[hider=Skilled Force Deflection][i]Skilled Force Deflection:[/i] With her combat experience Dede has been given ample opportunity to hone her energy deflecting skills, even without the use of her lightsaber. However, while she's able to easily protect herself and those close-by with her abilities, deflecting attacks away, she lacks the level of control required to direct the path of the deflected energy and on at least one occasion has caused an injury to a colleague due to a misfortunate ricochet.[/hider]
[hider=Battle Meditation][i]Battle Meditation:[/i] As part of her ongoing combat experience Dede has learnt how to calm her mind and ease the morale of the troops under her command before battle. While not the full extent of her power, Dede has not spent as much time developing her potential in this area as she could've, as she much prefers to lead from the front rather than hanging back and allowing her colleagues to risk their lives protecting her.[/hider][/indent]
[b]Biography:[/b][indent]With her Force powers detected rather late Dede spent most of her early life living with her family on Glee Anselm before finally being identified as a Jedi candidate and being escorted to Coruscant for inquisition by the Masters to determine whether she would be suitable for training. With an inquisitive and playful nature the young Nautolan impressed the Jedi Council with her desire to succeed, and although one Master expressed some concern over accepting such an old child into their ranks her arguments were overruled.

Showing an aptitude for the more physical nature of the Force, Dede was selected as a Guardian trainee and spent most of her days learning the finer points of lightsaber combat and telekinetic control. While she also showed some talent at the more spiritual side of the Force the young Nautolan found such matters dull and dry, instead revelling in her newfound ability to practically fly through combat exercises using her enhanced acrobatics and telekinesis to move almost as easily as she used to swim through the sea.

When called to war Dede showed determination and courage in the face of the enemy on numerous occasions, and it was soon decided that she was ready to face the Trials. All seemed to be going well until she faced the final test and was forced to face the spectres of her abandoned family, her mother, brother and sisters. Unable to cope with the strain of her emotional connection with them Dede failed the Trial and was sent for further instruction on how to control her emotional tendencies. After many months she as finally able to retake the Trial, and managed to pass without concern.

Sent to the frontline Dede. served the Republic with skill and competency, specialising in missions where close-combat efficiency and ferocity were an asset. Having been involved with several successful campaigns, as well as a few crushing defeats, Dede has learnt to value life and gauge just when and where that value should be spent for the greatest good.

Her latest engagement ended badly when Dede took a blaster bolt in her back during a battle. As she lay in the mud, bleeding out, she was forced to watch as her squad were overrun by the enemy. Able to drop herself into a hibernation trance Dede was left for dead in the wake of the battle, only awaking once she had been transported back to the Jedi Temple for treatment.[/indent]
[b]Personality and/or Motivation:[/b][indent]While Dede tends to be very goal orientate in her life, working towards specific objectives and aims, she has little in the way of long-term plans. She knows that one day the war will end and that there will no longer be battles to fight, and when that time comes she will happily lay down her 'saber to take up a quieter life once more. Her dream is to become one of the Masters at a Jedi Praxeum, helping to mold future Padawan on their own path to Knighthood.[/indent]
[b]Player’s long term goals:[/b][indent]During her latest battle, before being captured, Dede witnessed several of her close friends shot down around her. She's haunted by the memory of these comrades and would like to try and learn whether any of them survived the combat, and where they are now.
[indent][hider=Path of the Jedi]Dede is a bold and charismatic leader who cares deeply for those around her and with the right team behind her can achieve almost only goal. Her concern for the moral implications of her actions shows that she is mindful of the dangers she faces, even if she has yet to overcome them all.[/hider][hider=Path of the Sith]As Master Yoda's warnings of emotional commitment have proven with Anakin Skywalker, family can be the burden which lays a Jedi low. Dede's history of forming deep bonds with individuals could end up being her downfall.[/hider][/indent][/indent]
[b]Relations:[/b][indent]Dede has been trained with a very military mindset, treating her immediate comrades as family while trying to keep emotionally distant from those under her command, preparing herself for the day she may have to order them to their deaths.

When she joined the Jedi Order Dede left behind three siblings on Glee Anslem, a brother and two sisters, and while she knows her family relocated to Mon Calamari several years ago she has had no direct contact with them recently.

Homosexual, Dede has had three major romances in her life, and while one was killed fighting the Sith the other two she chose to leave behind to fulfill her duty to the Jedi Order and the Republic.[/indent]
