Setting:

So start the Star Wars theme and practically everyone can hum along with the wordless song these days. It's a pretty well-known classic that just keeps on going and will probably outlive all of us. Everyone knows how the story starts so say it with me:

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

There was once a great and mighty Galactic Senate that attempted to keep peace throughout the galaxy. Though hard it was a system built on a democracy and gave them a chance to fight for their beliefs. But evil took root at the center of the Senate in the form a Sith. He plotted to rule the galaxy and do away with democracy so his Empire could rise. To gain the power to do this he gathered those who opposed the Senate and made them a serious threat, hiding his involvement in this. His secret plots were successful, the Senate granted him power over a large army to combat the Separatists thus resulting in the Clone Wars.

History:

Ahsoka was born on the planet Shili which is the Togruta homeworld. She lived there until the age of three when she encountered Jedi Master Plo Koon and was brought by him to live and train at the Jedi Temple. It’s there where she stayed for nearly a decade learning the way of the Jedi and preparing for when she would become a Padawan. When she was about fourteen, Ahsoka was sent to Christophsis by Master Yoda to deliver a message to Masters Kenobi and Skywalker, as well as to become a Padawan for one of them. First came the message delivery was that Yoda wanted them to return to the Temple but they were still in the middle of a battle to take back the planet from the Separatists.

With it decided that they couldn’t leave just yet they turn their attention to the new Padawan. Turns out Ahsoka wasn’t assigned to Master Kenobi like they thought but to Anakin who hadn’t wanted an apprentice. Whoops, seems like there’s been a misunderstanding. In the meantime she stuck with Anakin, meeting his Captain Rex who she would have many adventures with. It was at that point when the Separatists activated a deflector shield which made it impossible for the clones to use their cannons. She was the one who suggested they sneak in to destroy the generator and Anakin agreed with her. They hid beneath a bin as both the shield and the droids passed right by them.

Anakin Skywalker: You're reckless, little one. You never would have made it as Obi-Wan's Padawan… but you might make it as mine.
However when they began to move they bumped into a droideka which put up its shields instantly making it harder to kill. Anakin told her to run and that act made the droid drop its shield and allowed them to destroy it. Her over eagerness to get to the generator caused her to set off a sensor for a droid that had been buried beneath the surface. While her master dealt with the droid, she set the charges but another one snuck up behind her. After slicing it up, Ahsoka pushed it away and it rolled over several more sensors. To deal with them she pulled a wall down on them, luckily it had a hole in it so she didn’t crush her master in the process. Now safe they blew the generator and the tide was turned in their favor. Anakin accepted her as his Padawan and they returned to get their next assignment.

They were sent to Teth to rescue the son of Jabba the Hutt. When they got there they were met with Separatist forces but they made quick work of them and got inside the monastery. Once they found the little Hutt, quickly named Stinky, they returned to the rest of the troops only to find that reinforcements had arrived. The Jedi retreated to search for another way out while the troops held off the droids but they were cut off by Ventress. So they were forced to keep going, on one of the native giant bugs to where they’d spotted a transport off in the distance. When they got there they cut down the droids and hijacked it for themselves. While they tried to go back for the troops there was too much blasterfire and Stinky needed medical treatment. Luckily they had Master Kenobi’s men to fight alongside and so they made their way to the Cruiser.

Or they would have if there wasn’t also an aerial battle going on making it impossible to dock with the ship. They would have to go all the way to Tatooine in a rusty bucket. During the trip, Ahsoka treated Stinky before helping her Master and Artoo attempt to get the ship into better shape. However, once they reached Tatooine there were enemy ships waiting to shoot them down. Seems that Count Dooku wanted to negotiate a treaty with the Hutts and shut down the Outer Rim Lanes to the Republic. While they destroyed the enemy their ship was damaged and they had to crash land into the desert below. So they began their trip through the sand toward Jabba’s palace.

They were forced to separate when Dooku came near, Ahsoka took Stinky and ran while Anakin held off the Sith Lord. Turns out there were some strong droids waiting for her there and she fought them off but Anakin reached the palace first. He was almost executed as Jabba believed that they had killed his son and had come to finish him off too. Luckily Ahsoka showed up and helped reveal the plot while returning Stinky to his father. Except that didn’t help at all and now Jabba was going to kill both of them.

Ahsoka Tano: Does this always happen to you?
Anakin Skywalker: Everywhere I go.
Good thing Padmé had been back on Coruscant unraveling the mystery on her end. One of the other Hutts, Ziro, had plotted the whole thing and the Senator made him confess to Jabba. Anakin and Ahsoka were free to go and a new treaty was put in place for the Republic. Now they just needed to wait for a ride off the planet. Their first official mission as Master and Padawan was a success.

They went on to do other missions together which included Ahsoka riding giant birds of prey and podracing, which she failed terribly at. Again, their missions were completed and Ahsoka learned a couple of valuable lessons. Word around the galaxy was that there was a new Separatist weapon that no ship or even a person has ever survived. The pair was just hanging around the Bith system when they were contacted with Plo Koon, the Jedi who had found Ahsoka. As they were talking to him, communications were cut as their ship was attacked. It was her that wanted to go looking due to her relationship with the Jedi Master but they were ordered to stay put. She didn’t like that.

Anakin ordered her into a smaller ship and said that they’d scout ahead when really they were going to search for survivors. They were ordered by the Chancellor to turn around but Ahsoka used the Force to sense that Plo Koon was still alive and they managed to rescue them just in time. When the few survivors were on board they were informed about a ship called the Malevolence which carried an ion cannon and was capable of knocking out all electronics and leave any ship floating dead in space. Whoops, there it is. Time to get out of there.

It wasn’t long after when they learned that the ship was heading for a clone facility that held more than 60,000 wounded. Anakin devised a plan that would hopefully be able to destroy the Malevolence by sneaking up on them using a smuggler’s route through a dangerous nebula full of Neebray mantas. While they caught the ship by surprise most of their squad was taken out and it was Ahsoka who managed to convince her Master to change tactics. So Plo Koon suggested that they fire upon the ion cannon itself so that it would overload itself, and the plan worked. The cannon was destroyed but the ship was limping away.

To make matters worse a Naboo cruiser was suddenly in the middle of it. What was a mission to destroy the ship was now a rescue mission to board the Separatist ship and save Padmé. Kenobi and Skywalker went to collect the Senator while Ahsoka stayed behind to assist Koon. While he was on the Malevolence, Anakin reset the navicomputer so that the ship would crash into the nearby planet and finally be destroyed. Hurray, it was finally over and the Republic won this particular battle.

Again, she participated in a series of important mission for the Republic including defending a planet, finding R2-D2 and the Separatist spy that turned out to be another droid. She went with another Jedi Master, Luminara Unduli, to guard the captured Viceroy Nute Gunray only to lose him when Ventress made an appearance and a guard turned against them. Not to mention she saved Kenobi and Skywalker from being eaten by a gundark when they were trapped inside its cave.

Ahsoka Tano: I get so confused sometimes. It's forbidden for Jedi to form attachment, yet we're supposed to be compassionate.
Aayla Secura: It is nothing to be ashamed of, Ahsoka. I went through the same process when I was your age with my own Master.
Her next exciting mission came when they went to rescue Master Aayla Secura from her destroyed cruiser except in the process, Anakin was injured and their ship damaged. It went into hyperspace and took them far from the battle but also they were heading directly into a star. They managed to escape by shutting down the power and they crashed on a nearby planet. While she didn’t want to leave her injured Master’s side, she went with Secura to find the locals to see if they could help. Eventually they found the Lurmen, pacifist creatures who wanted nothing to do with their war but they convinced them to treat Anakin. When they got back to their makeshift camp, it was just in time to save Rex and her Master from a pair of wild animals.

After Anakin was treated they went back to the Lurmen village as they waited for him to get better. Except nothing is ever that easy and Separatist troops landed nearby. They were ordered out of the village by the leader who didn’t want to get caught in the middle of their fight. While they were out surviving they saw the enemy’s new weapon – a cannon capable of destroying every living thing but allowed the droids to continue to operate. At first all they were going to do was sneak into the base and steal a shuttle to leave the planet but they learned that the weapon was going to be tested on the Lurmen village. With some ingenuity and eventual help from the Lurmen, they defeated the new weapon just in time for a pick-up from their own troops.

Sometime after, they traveled to Naboo and Anakin sent Ahsoka to search for Padmé and Jar Jar who had lost contact with them earlier. She came across another Gungan who had seen the pair earlier and discovered a secret underground base. When her Master joined her, they blasted through to rescue the captured pair and also Dr. Vindi. While they were successful in both the deadly Blue Shadow Virus was released inside the lab – trapping Ahsoka, Padmé, Jar Jar and several clones inside. Ahsoka and the clones were the first to be infected but they instead went to work to keep all of the droids from getting out. In the meantime, Kenobi and Skywalker went in search of the cure. They arrived in time to administer to antidote before they all died.

Anakin: "It was a trap, Snips. It wasn't your fault."
Ahsoka: "I lost so many of my pilots."
Anakin: "Take heart, little one. That's the reality of command."
When the planet Ryloth was taken over by Separatists Anakin and Ahsoka were dispatched to break through the blockade and allow other troops to land on the planet. Ahsoka was given her own squadron to command but her stubbornness prevented her from pulling back before most of them were killed. Upon her return to the Resolute she realized her error and began to doubt herself. Yet her Master would not accept that and devised a plan to ram their other cruiser into the Separatist command center by himself. And he told her that she was in charge while he was away.

With the sudden responsibility of all those lives on her shoulder and the life of her Master, Ahsoka plotted to approach giving the enemy ships their underside. This would allow their pilots to leave the hangers without being immediately fired upon and destroyed so they could finish off the rest of the ships. Her plan was a success and the blockade was gone, allowing Kenobi and Windu’s troops to pass by relatively unharmed. Oh and it’s time to retrieve her Master from his escape pod. Later they flew down to the planet to provide air support while Windu took back the Ryloth capital.

During a battle on Felucia, Ahsoka disobeyed orders to pull out and needed some severe influence to get her to leave. Upon her return to the Temple, she was disciplined and put on security detail in the Temple archives. While she found it boring at first, it turns out that there was an intruder. One that Kenobi and Skywalker attempted to chase but eluded the pair. Ahsoka managed to catch his accomplice and found out just who it was and where the bounty hunter, Cad Bane, was going next with the holocron he’d stolen. Her punishment was over as quickly as it started and she went with her master to chase down Cad Bane to get the holocron back as it held all the names of the known Force-sensitive children.

While they were too late to save the Jedi who was responsible for holding the crystal to activate the holocron, they could still go after the items. They boarded Bane’s ship and followed him down to one of the holds where they battled with the droids. When Bane escaped, Ahsoka went after him on her own only to be captured. The bounty hunter used her as bait to get Anakin to unlock the holocron and while they were busy trying not to get sucked out into space, Bane escaped. Now they needed to get off the ship before it exploded and so did Bane. The bounty hunter stole a trooper’s uniform and snuck on board their ship. He managed to escape the Resolute with the information and the Jedi were left chasing after him once again.

Now they had to stop Bane before he could kidnap any of the Force-sensitive children. While they were too late to stop him from taking two of them, Anakin and Ahsoka caught up with him on Naboo and prevented him from taking a Gungan child. With Bane in custody they were able to figure out where he’d stopped and while Kenobi and Windu went to retrieve the holocron, they went to Mustafar in hopes that the children would be there. Turns out they were. However, the droids were loyal to Darth Sidious and were going to take them away while sinking the entire platform into the lava. Luckily, they were able to rescue the two infants and leave the planet with them. The holocron was retrieved but Bane got away.

After that they traveled to Geonosis (a second time for some of them) to destroy a weapons factory that had built up in their absence. The trouble was getting to it. There were three teams, Ahsoka went with her Master but they were shot down before they could arrive at the rendezvous point so they had to fight their way there from the ground instead. While successful all of the teams took heavy casualties and it was only by combining all three that they were able to fight their way to the bridge leading to the factory. Anakin was left in charge of destroying the factory while Kenobi and Mundi went off to recover from their injuries. Once again Unduli made an appearance, this time with her own Padawan, Barriss.

Unduli had come up with a plan of her own. While the Masters and troops kept the attention of the droids the Padawans would sneak in through the catacombs below and blow up the power generator. However, the Padawan’s were discovered and faced a battle when they reached the generator. Ahsoka was knocked out, and the bombs were stolen but Barriss managed to take control of one of the enemy’s super tanks. In order to complete their mission, Ahsoka used the super tank to destroy the generator but it brought the whole place down on their head in the process. They were now buried in the rubble and slowly running out of oxygen. It was only thanks to the mechanics her Master taught her that she was able to send him a signal that allowed him to locate them. Using the Force the Masters moved the debris away and saved the Padawans. They were then shipped off to get some rest.

The two of them wouldn’t show up again until after the battle for Geonosis was over. While the Masters were off doing other things the Padawans were sent to pick up medical supplies and supposed to deliver them. Again, things can never go just like planned. During a meal they were suddenly attacked by a pair of clones but it didn’t just end there – most of the clones seem to be acting differently. They’d taken over the ship and only the Padawans were left unaffected by the strange alien worm-like creatures. Against her better judgment they split up and Ahsoka headed toward communications to contact her Master.

During their time apart, Barriss had been captured and converted with the brain worm and attacked her. Ahsoka managed to escape. Her Master told her that the creatures could be destroyed by the cold and that she needed to rupture the coolant system. While doing that took care of most of the clones, Barriss was tougher than that and met Ahsoka in the cockpit. There they fought and the other Padawan gained enough of herself to tell Ahsoka to kill her. However she couldn’t and lucky she didn’t because it wasn’t long after when Barriss passed out, the brain slug dead. The ship docked safely with the medical station but Ahsoka herself was so out of it due to the cold that she was barely conscious herself.

Personality:

Anakin Skywalker: There's been a mix-up. The youngling isn't with me.
Ahsoka Tano: Stop calling me that! You're stuck with me, Skyguy.
Anakin Skywalker: What did you just call me? Don't get snippy with me, little one. You know, I don't even think you're old enough to be a Padawan.
There's a very good reason why her master gave her the nickname "Snips" and that's because she was snippy the very first time they met. Which isn't exactly normal for a Jedi Padawan who's supposed to be respectful not just to their masters but to everyone. While she has learned to be more respectful to those around her, Ahsoka does still have the tendency to be a bit snippy with people. These days she reserves it for the enemy and her master on occasion. Ahsoka also tends to give people nicknames out of disrespect sometimes. She often refers to droids as "stick-tinnies" or has terrible names to call Ventress when they cross paths. At the beginning she even called Anakin "Skyguy" because he hadn't earned her respect yet. To her, respect is something that's not always freely given.

From the very beginning, Ahsoka has been the reckless sort. She takes risks that most Jedi wouldn't and being Anakin's Padawan hasn't helped at all considering he's just as reckless. At the start of their relationship he told her that she was too reckless to be Obi-Wan's Padawan, but that she might make it as his. Under his tutelage Ahsoka's recklessness has caused concern in other Masters. While the sheer outlandish plans have seemed to catch the enemy off-guard it can result in failure on her part rather than a victory. And failure means lives are lost.

Combine her reckless behavior with her stubborn determination and things can get worse. When she gets like this, Ahsoka tends to lose herself in the moment and plows on ahead without realizing the danger soon enough to retreat. This has resulted in the deaths of many clones under her command or to put them in greater danger. Sometimes, she can't see the whole picture and needs to be pulled out of the situation rather forcefully by someone else. When things don't go her way Ahsoka can tend to sulk - especially if she felt she could have pressed on and won. Retreating isn't something she likes to do but has learned that it is necessary if she's going to save lives.

Anakin Skywalker: First rule of war: listen and obey your superiors.
Ahsoka Tano: But sometimes you get carried away.
Anakin Skywalker: All that means is that I understand what you're going through.
Put all of it together and you get one Padawan who, on occasion, disobeys orders completely. More than once Ahsoka has completely ignored an order given to her by someone higher up. She's headstrong, even more when she thinks she's being treated unfairly or when Ahsoka feels that Anakin is being too overprotective of her. When she puts her mind to a task this is one girl who's absolutely going to do it, even if it means disobeying a direct order given to her. This was proven when her master refused to let her go on a rescue mission and Ahsoka went anyway without his permission. While her help had been useful it's still something that's frowned upon by the Jedi and people do happen to compare her to her master about this sort of thing.

Which brings us to another point. Jedi are taught to be truthful and yes, she is very honest. Sometimes it’s taken to an extreme and her honesty turns into a blunt dagger that can hurt. Yet, Ahsoka is also an excellent liar when she wants to be. On a future mission she has Anakin believing that she'd been given orders to accompany him on that very same mission where she disobeyed his order. While her help had come in useful there had been some suspicion at one point and her master did actually ask if the order was true when they got back. Even though the other master didn't give up her lie it was still there. It wasn't the first time she had lied to him either, the other was when her lightsaber had been stolen and she wanted to get it back without him knowing she'd lost it. Other than those rare moments, Ahsoka is an honest sort of person.

Another of her traits that have caused other masters concern is her aggressive nature. Ahsoka is the sort to take an offensive position over a defensive one. Rushing in to strike down enemies instead of staying back to deflect and protect. That doesn't mean she won't defend just that she prefers to defeat the foe quickly. She's generally on the front line of a battle, leading the way. There are times when that aggression comes out in other ways, such as threatening a foe into giving up important information. While she wouldn't necessarily go through with it (especially if they were unarmed), it is something a Jedi shouldn't do.

Ahsoka can also be competitive at times, mostly notable at this age and usually with her master. They took count of how many droids they destroyed and would tease the loser after about it. Yes, it’s important to win the battles but they can have fun while doing it. Speaking of. Despite the fact that Ahsoka is a Padawan stuck in the middle of a terrible war she hasn’t lost that jovial spark. She won’t hesitate to tease her master or sass a boy even while fighting or during an important mission. At times the relationship she has with Anakin can be pretty casual, more like they were family than master and apprentice.

She also has a pretty great sense of humor, all things considered. Being in a war hasn’t dampened it completely even if she does have a more serious side to her. There’s a unique sarcasm and feistiness to her that some Jedi wouldn’t approve of. Of course, Anakin really doesn’t help the matter as he sometimes goes along with it or doesn’t always reprimand it sternly enough to be effective. A Padawan learns a lot from her master but this was always a side to Ahsoka that’s always been there.

Impatience is yet another trait she shares with her master. It’s hard to sit and wait for something to happen when she feels like she should be doing something. While this has gotten better, she has yet to completely master finding patience. When she does finally reach her limit that is when her mouth tends to get her into trouble with the sarcasm. Usually it lands her in trouble, especially if she’s been caught by the enemy because she just can’t seem to not provoke them.

Ahsoka Tano: You taught me well. I can handle anything.
Anakin Skywalker: Don't get cocky.
Ahsoka can get overconfident in her abilities. Her own master has told her not to get cocky on the battlefield. While she has gotten stronger in her abilities she still has much to learn. That cockiness of hers has lead her into trouble on more than one occasion and sometimes she needs help in order to get out of it. Yet there are times when she realizes that she can’t do something by herself and attempts to enlist the help of those around her.

The last of the negative side she shares with her master is one of attachment. Like him, Ahsoka tends to get attached to people -- which is forbidden to the Jedi. She has a hard time letting go of those she cares for deeply and it has nearly interfered with a situation. When Anakin was badly hurt she initially refused to leave his side in fear of losing him and it was only at the insistence of another master that made her go to find help. Accepting the death of a person is supposed to be something a Jedi does but she finds it difficult and honestly, Ahsoka would fight to the death to protect the people she cares about.

Like Anakin the idea of being compassionate but not forming attachment just doesn’t make sense to her. While she understands the concept of not risking thousands of lives just to save one Ahsoka would still try to save that one anyway. And she is very compassionate. Not only to those that she’s formed some kind of bond to but also to those she hardly knows. It shows in the way she looks after people, especially those who are innocent. She can be gentle with them, trying to soothe their fear or make them feel better. Even though her recklessness does tend to get the clones killed, Ahsoka does get upset over it after. When it first happened it made her doubt herself to the point where she very nearly didn’t want to become a leader again. There’s also been a bit of a maternal instinct shown over the time she’s been Anakin’s apprentice as she’s looked after younglings.

Ahsoka Tano: When I was out there, alone, all I had was your training and the lessons you taught me. And because of you, I did survive. And not only that, I was able to lead others to survive as well.
And yet, despite the fact that she can’t let other people die Ahsoka is very selfless in this. She will, and has, risked her own life to save other people or to complete a very important mission. There was no thought to her own life when she brought a weapons factory down on her, not until after when she survived the blast. That doesn’t mean Ahsoka won’t fight with everything she has until her very last breath – quite the opposite, actually. She has a very strong sense of survival and will do anything she can to stay alive. Ahsoka would rather go down fighting than just lie down and wait for death.

Of course, it helps that Ahsoka has a lot of faith in her master. She knows that he won’t give up on her (even though he too should be able to accept death) and will keep looking for her when she’s lost. Just like she won’t give up on him, either. Ahsoka trusts him, often with her life but there are times when she feels that she has to look out for him – has to stop him from doing acts a Jedi shouldn’t. While it’s a bit of a joke that she has to watch his back, there is truth to it. She’s seen how he can get over certain issues, like how he doesn’t talk about his past or the way he handled slavers or even Obi-Wan’s supposed death.

When Anakin was asked what her strength was he said that she was fearless and it’s true, she is fearless. Ahsoka was fourteen when she stepped onto the battlefield, eager to gain experience and she hasn’t run away or said she couldn’t keep watching people die. No, she’s risen to the task of being a Padawan to a general in the war, even when she did doubt herself. There’s no hesitation in risking her own life even though she’s still so young. In fact, she eagerly accepts the missions given to her (and those that aren’t) and would rather do them over other more mundane tasks.

Because of her experience on the battlefield and Anakin’s teachings, she’s become quite the leader. When she needs to fill this role Ahsoka takes it seriously and leads her troops valiantly to the point where they trust her. Yet it’s not just on the everyday battlefield that she’s proven her role as a leader but also in other various situations. She inspired future leaders into taking action against the corruption kept secret on her world and brought hope when there was none left. While she obviously still has some growing up to do and a lot left to learn about being a leader, Ahsoka’s got a pretty good grasp on it so far.

Like most people she’s not perfect, she makes mistakes (accidentally or deliberate) but Ahsoka always accepts the blame. She’s not one to make excuses for herself or get out of a punishment, though she will complain about it or sulk. More than anything the guilt she would feel over a terrible mistake that cost lives is far more efficient in being a punishment than anything the Council or her Master could assign to her. Of course, she won’t accept taking the blame for someone else – not when it’s over something serious. Ahsoka is one who believes people should take responsibility for their own actions rather then try to blame someone else.

Abilities, Weaknesses and Power Limitations:

Force: Despite her young age, Ahsoka has a powerful connection to the Force. Mostly she uses it to propel herself across the battlefield by enhancing her acrobatic skills or utilizing the Force Jump. However, she can use the Force Push and its other telekinetic abilities on inanimate objects. She could also use it to sense other beings or sharpen her own natural senses. On rare occasions the Force can result in dreams or visions of the future, mostly of impending danger. Ahsoka has not been trained to use the Jedi Mind Trick, so it's not yet in play but it is something she can learn.

Lightsaber: Ahsoka uses her lightsaber differently than most Jedi, holding it in a reverse grip. While she can and does wield in a proper grip, the reverse grip is her preferred style and she uses it in tandem with Form V: Shien. She was also trained in the style of Ataru and the basic forms of Niman. On the battlefield she darts back and forth to wear out her enemy.

Visuospatial Awareness: The Togrutan, her species, were capable of a form of echolocation. Her montrals (the horns on top of her head) have hollow spaces allow her to sense the proximity and movement of physical objects around her.

Togruta: Despite having spent only three years among her own species, she is prone to grouping with others. Especially if there are more Togruta, she has a sense of unity among them. Individualism is rare among her species but Ahsoka is also a Jedi so it was something she had to adjust to. Togruta have an aversion to solitude and isolation, so much so that they often making an effort to seek out friends and the same can be said of Ahsoka, mostly. There are times when she definitely wants to be alone. Both of these species traits might play a role in her tendency to get attached to people when she shouldn't.

While they are generally tranquil and quiet, Ahsoka is neither of these things - she talks a lot and can be quite aggressive in nature. As she matures this does change a little. When they need to be, Togruta can be fierce warriors which she tends to lean more towards. They fight in groups and while Ahsoka can do the same, she can also fight alone if necessary, something she had to adapt to while growing up as a Jedi. They are also a carnivorous species but she can eat rations.

Pilot & Ships: Ahsoka is not only a talented pilot, she's also learned how to analyze technical scans of a ship. This latter ability came from Anakin's teaching after she became his Padawan.

Strategist: Over the course of her time with Anakin she has shown that she has great potential to be an excellent strategist. She can not only put together a plan that involves a whole battalion of clones but also when the original plan goes wrong, showing that she can think on her feet. However, this is something she's still learning how to do so her plans may not always be concrete.

Mechanic: Another thing her Master is teaching her is mechanics. She can repair vehicles or just use it to get her out of a tough situation.

Hand-to-Hand: While her primary set of combat skills lie in wielding her lightsaber, Ahsoka is good without it too. She is so good that she can kill people without needing to use her weapons.

Multilingual: Basic - the most-used language spoken throughout the galaxy. Togruti - the language of the Togruta. While she didn't live on her homeplanet very long, it her native language and is heavily influenced by Basic. Shyriiwook - the language of the Wookies. It's something Ahsoka can understand when it's spoken to her. Kel Dor - the language of Kel Dor. Thanks to Master Plo Koon, Ahsoka has learned his native language enough to get by. Binary - the "language" of astromech droids...okay, it doesn't just go for astromech droids and it's not binary as we would view it. This language consists of various sounds and Ahsoka isn't exactly fluent in speaking or understanding it but she is learning to identify certain sounds as moods or feelings from spending so much time around Artoo.

Dark Side: Yes, the Dark Side is powerful but it is consuming and Ahsoka is probably closer to it than most Padawans. Who wouldn't with Anakin as their master? But there are still traces of darkness in her and if she's not careful it will take her over.

Little alien girl

Ahsoka stands at about 5'3" in height, with a thin but toned figure. Her skin is orange in color with white markings on her face and she has light blue eyes. She has no hair but instead has gray and white head-tails called lekku and a pair of horns called montral that sit on top of her head.

Cold. She was so cold that the metal beneath her felt warm against her skin, as did the goo that was coating her body. There was a humming sound that could only be the engines of a ship. Was it the medical frigate or was she back on board the Resolute? After a moment she decided that it wasn’t cold enough to be the hijacked ship, surely it would still be iced over at this point. Of course, there was always the chance that it was the station they were supposed to dock with. A question buzzed at the back of her mind but right now she was having a hard time putting it into words.

Not to mention that there was the sensation that something had been lost – something important. Attempting to focus on it felt like someone had opened an airlock and everything was being sucked out into the emptiness of space. So instead she took several deep breaths in and out, calming her emotions and instead concentrating on this moment. It allowed her to feel several familiar Force-signatures on the ship and it made everything feel a little better. She wasn’t alone.

Now to get herself up off the floor before she nearly froze to death again. Thinking about the cold made her body shudder and Ahsoka embraced the physical pain it brought, accepting the warning it gave. Her strength seemed to be completely depleted but she pushed passed the exhaustion and sat up. Ahsoka knew that she would have the find the strength to shower and rid herself of the cooling goo and her clothes, maybe a blanket too. Whatever she had fallen out of was certainly not a bacta tank, not with the way it left her so drained. When she was clean then she could find her Master or Master Obi-Wan to get answers.

It took some doing but Ahsoka got to her feet and into one of the showers. As much as she wanted to turn the heat on full-blast, it would be dangerous with her body so cold. Still, it helped expel the chill a little but not completely and she stayed in the spray for as long as possible. Clearly she couldn’t linger as long as she wanted with so many people needing to use them. Even though she kept her eyes adverted from most of them, she did notice that they were all sporting numbers on their arm as she was. Was this a prison and the numbers their identification? The idea doesn’t sit well with her. Anyone who wanted her would probably be aligned with the Separatists. She didn’t even have her weapon or comlink to call for help. When it became clear that she needed to leave the shower, Ahsoka dried off as quickly as possible before grabbing another dry towel to wrap around herself firmly.

A glance told her that people were opening lockers that had the same numbers imprinted on their arm and it didn’t take long to locate her own. Inside was her clothes, a tan poncho and her other meager belongings along with a jumpsuit she knew wasn’t hers along with what looked like a datapad. Underneath it all was her lightsaber. Either someone didn’t know what it was and allowed her to have it or this wasn’t a prison. Not a Separatist ship then, even the tinnies would have recognized a Jedi weapon. She dressed as quickly as she had dried herself off and then eyed the black jumpsuit. It looked to be her size. Surely whoever had put it there wouldn’t mind if she wore it until she was warm again. When that was done she pulled her poncho on and wrapped it around herself tightly. That would have to do for now. Her weapon was hidden but that might be for the best until she learned more about this place. The small comforts of the shower, extra warmth and her lightsaber gave her a little energy, enough not to go find the nearest bed and collapse in it.

So it was time to figure out what was going on around here. It’s easy to tell who’s new and confused like her and who isn’t. Ahsoka doesn’t approach the people who don’t know anything but she may listen in on their conversations. The individuals she does want to talk to are those who seem to be calm about waking up here, those who seem to have a routine to all of this madness. That is, right up to the point when she stepped in goo tracks from an astromech droid that were leading away from lockers and out of the medbay completely. Stang just what she needed. She pulled away from the lockers completely and started following the trail.

“Artooie, you better not have made a mess. Master won’t be happy and he might make me clean it,” her frustration is evident in her tone.

Comms Sample:

[Suddenly the screen is filled with an orange-skinned female alien face. The youngling is in the lift, arms crossed over her chest.]

Master, we have a slight problem. Stubby's back. [A brief look of irritation crosses her face before it's gone.] He managed to get into the lift shaft and could be heading anywhere. If we can catch him we could reprogram him. Stubby might be useful around here.

[Ahsoka looks away and mumbles under her breath.] So long as he doesn't try to get us killed again. Artoo is so much better than Stubby. A droid popper would be nice to have right about now.

[She turns attention back to the comm.] Everyone should be advised. R3-S6 is a dangerous droid, don't let his appearance fool you. He may look little and seem innocent but he's tricky. Don't trust him until we can deal with him and don't let him near anything important. Stubby looks almost like Artoo except he's gold and black in color. Everything should be fine once we get our hands on him. My master, Anakin, can fix anything.

When he's not destroying it, that is. [Definitely a teasing tone.]

If anyone is here from the 501st, report in. Commander Tano out.
