[hider=Cassandra Alaric]
Name: Cassandra Alaric
Age: 30
Sex: Female
Species: Human
Force Sensitive: No
Affiliation: Republic of Kuat (specifically Onderon)

Appearance: Picture or Description

Abilities: As a trained commando her abilities are varied and numerous. An expert pilot, trained heavy weapons operator, trained in communications equipment, expert marksman, medic, trained in combat from oceans to space and everywhere in between. Cassandra was also required to learn the arts of stealth and tracking as well as equipment operation ranging from grappling and rappelling hooks to jetpacks. Advanced training in survival in almost any environment. Cassandra has also been taught to hack most security systems and if that fails she can rely on demolitions training to bring the entire ship or facility down. Though these are a few of the skills her training has given her.

Possessions: The equivalent of a full set of Mark III Katarn Class Commando Armor, including the backpack, upgraded for the modern times. The shield is strong enough to be as effective as the Mark III was in its day. The markings on the armor would place her as a Colonel. In the wrists are vibro-blades with cortosis weave mounts. Not designed to defeat a Jedi, but at the very least to create an opening. On her hip is an updated variant of the DC-17 hand blaster. Of course while not an actual one, the weapon is best compared to that specific model. 

Her main weapon is a heavily upgraded and personalized Baragwin Heavy Repeating Blaster, with a concussion grenade launcher mounted to the underside. Knowing the type of force that would try and attack this kind of setting in force, Cassandra is taking absolutely no chances. An assassin can be handled by her vibro-blades, an assaulting force of any size will have holes ripped into them by her gun. In the shoulder, a small flamethrower is mounted for use in situations where a personal touch is not wise but necessary.
On her belt and backpack are various tools ranging from grappling tools and ammunition to medical supplies and survival gear. The pack is incredibly heavy but years of lugging all of her equipment around have made it bearable for her.

Personality: She is defined by her military service and sense of duty. Lying about her age to join the military on her home planet of Onderon at the age of 15, it has come to define her. Cassandra had was full time military from that point on. Training and qualifications followed by more training and missions, they lead her to be very much cold and mission first. Loyalty was also heavily instilled into her, at least until such time as that loyalty placed the mission in extreme danger. Allies were only to be left behind if it meant imminent and complete mission failure. 

Her graduation into the commando ranks of Onderon was to survive for a year on the far side of the planet with her fellow rookie commandos. Those who survived were welcomed as if they were a veteran, those who died were remembered for having come as far as they did. Cassandra keeps it quiet but very much wishes for those days to come back again. Her current long term assignment is to the son of the head of the Republic of Kuat and heir to Kuat Drive Yards, and she hates every second of it. The man is an idiot given a commanding rank and diplomatic importance. He is fierce at the negotiations table, but outside of that he is a party boy. Barely capable of tying his own shoes and often completely unable to do so if the sun has set on whatever planet they are on. More than once, some stupid line has made her want nothing more than to break his nose, but duty held her back.

Needless to say, every second of leave she gets is spent on some backwater part of a world known for its dangerous flora and fauna along with unforgiving climate and terrain. Hopefully if this Conclave goes well, she can get promoted to general and actually get an assignment worthy of her skills.
