Kijani shook her head. "If I'm going to learn to be a real Jedi, I'd better get used to sleeping in some less comfortable spaces. I'll take the tent. Just... remind me how to put it up, again?"
Then Artoo came up, and she felt a distinct jolt of panic. What could it be now? They had only just gotten here, would they have to leave? She relaxed a bit when she saw it was just her father.
"Hello Father!" Kijani smiled broadly. "You haven't interrupted anything. Training starts tomorrow. We're just settling in for the night." She gave him a quick rundown of events, but left out the part where Adam would technically not be training with her. "Have we missed anything important?"

@DraconiWarlord Whatever you changed the font to, I can barely see it.
I'm done. It sucks but there it is. I apologize for making you all wait.
Kassandra
Kassandra awoke suddenly, barely breathing as if someone had punched her in the chest. What a strange, strange dream that had been. That was followed by a feeling of deep certainty, as obvious as the ocean. That was no dream. Someone was trying to speak to her – and if she believed it, 5 others as well. The Forbidden Grove, 2 days… she could make that, she knew the route. But why was she chosen, out of all people in this world? She was nothing much.
She started to dress and pack quickly. Traveling clothes, cloak, rations enough for 3 days, because you never knew, her best boots and her favorite water jug that could be carried on her back. Finally, her staff, hooked to her belt. It looked like an ordinary carved walking stick, but could easily be used for more.
She exited the little cottage at the edge of town, to find the fishing village of Northclaw was already up and bustling as usual. As she walked through the town, she was greeted by townspeople left and right. It made her heart hurt to think of leaving them. But if this dream, this prophecy was true, it had to be done. This Vaeros would destroy everything – if nothing else in that prophecy stuck with her, it would be those images of destruction. If it was too much to save the world, then she would save her town.
Midway through town, a group of children found her and happily surrounded her. They were the younger ones; not yet of age to help their parents with work. Most of them were her students when she helped to teach.
“Good morning, Miss Kassandra! Are you going somewhere?” One of the children piped up.
“Good morning Helena. Good morning, little ones. I am going on a journey. I will be back as soon as I can.” She ruffled the child’s hair in a fond way. “Be good to your parents, all of you. Especially you, Anthony.” She waggled her finger and the children giggled. As one last treat, Kassandra pulled out her staff and summoned some very large bubbles for them to play with. They lasted just a bit longer than regular bubbles, and were much larger. The babies were always delighted.
As she headed toward the village gate, ready to leave, she turned back and sighed deeply. She would be homesick the whole time, she just knew it. Maybe it was a mistake, and this red-haired human meant another Kassandra?
She took the road out, making a beeline for the thick forest.

Two Days Later
It wasn’t a terrible trip. She was happy to discover that her foresting skills had not worn down with time. If you knew the forests, there would be plenty of things to eat, and cool places to sleep. She hadn’t even touched the dried fish and spiced seaweed that made up most of her rations. Approaching the Forbidden Grove, she pulled her staff out and used it as a walking stick. She also pulled up the hood of her cloak, to hide her odd ears. She wasn’t sure what she would find, so it was best to play the traveling human.
Wouldn’t it be funny if she was the only one here, and had come for nothing at all?
That idea died as she heard voices ahead. Peering through the trees, she saw 5 other figures already there. It looked like she was bringing up the rear.
Nothing to do but go forward, then.
“Ahem.” She stepped through the trees with barely a sound, her cloak hood still up. “...good morning. I suppose I am to join you.”

*grumbling sigh* I've got half a scene written but it's not coming together.
Same.
Name: Kassandra
Age (18+ please): 153, considered a young adult for a dragon
Gender: Female
Race: Water Dragon Shifter/Human
Appearance: Kassandra is chubby with dark skin and seafoam white hair. She has strange, forked ears that mark her as inhuman, but they don’t look elven and she’s too tall to be a dwarf. She usually dresses a bit outside of fashion as she can’t quite keep up with trends over the many years. Her dragon form is a pastel blue and white.
Personality: Kassandra is gentle and caring, and looks like she couldn’t hurt a fly. In truth, she could do so easily, but only if the fly was hurting others. Despite being a village guardian, she is rather on the shy side. She’s been run out of town too many times while traveling, and always feels in between due to her shifter nature. While she has few friends, she tends to take good care of the people under her watch. Beware her if you ever get her angry.
Strengths: She is an excellent swimmer, both in dragon form and human form. She is good at cooking and living off the land, skills she learned from both parents. Once she was older, she learned staff combat from her father, and water magic from her mother. They taught her the staff since it could easily blend in as a walking stick. Her mother knew acutely that a shifter’s life may mean not being quite welcome anywhere. While she mostly uses the staff as a defensive weapon, she can and will strike heavy blows with it if necessary. She could easily crack a skull if she truly found it necessary.
With her water magic, she has a recent rage of what she can do. At the lightest, she can make a small localized rainshower. Good for getting clean or cooling off on a hot day, but not much more.
At the heaviest, she can cause someone to lose all the liquid in their body. However this would probably leave her laid out for days, so she won't be doing that unless it's a last resort. Her mother taught her that one; Daddy did not know about this little lesson.
Mostly she uses her staff as a focus and shoots water like a fire hose, knocking people off their feet and half drowning them with congealed balls of water.
Weaknesses: Obviously, anything enchanted to be anti-dragon will work well against her. She is highly susceptible to bad food and tainted water. Either will put her off her game for longer than it would a regular human, especially the water. Hot days slow her down because she is easily dehydrated. Water dragons are meant to live in or very near the water. While Kassy is used to living in harsh climates, a desert like climate could very well kill her if she didn’t have access to a regular source of water around the clock.
Brief Bio: Kassandra’s mother was a shifter dragon, and her father an ordinary human. They brought up Kassandra in the wild forests, with plants and animals for her companions. Unfortunately, illness took her father early. Her mother, while loving, was grieving too hard to take very good care of her daughter. So Kassandra more or less raised herself during her teenage years. Once she became of age, she and her mother parted ways.
Kassandra has served as the local fishing village’s guardian for over 75 years, and after much toil, has earned the trust of the humans there. She helps with large catches, rescues people in storms, tosses brigands out of town, and sometimes teaches the children when their parents are off on sea voyages. She has not left the town in some time, because she is comfortable there. Unfortunately, life isn’t all comfort. Being chosen will test everything she knows, and is.
Other: Kassy loves to sing, but it’s rare that she does so in front of others. She has a rich and husky singing voice.

She probably doesn't know what the word means, but she realizes she's suggesting something that may not be welcome. Which is why she's all shy about it.
Also the tech eyepatch thing is stuck in my brain. That or a device very,very much like a DBZ scouter that serves the same purpose.
