Background:
Wookieepedia about Ahsoka.
Rebels Wiki about Ahsoka.
Both are fairly extensive but more can be written as needed.
Personality:
Ahsoka is a strong minded, sometimes stubborn, moralistic young woman who can be a bit reckless and impulsive but very thoughtful and brave. She’s loyal to those she trusts and once you are her friend it takes a bit betrayal to turn her away.
Physically she carries herself with a good amount of pride and confidence. She is good at what she does and knows it. She used to be proud of being trained as a Jedi and what that meant with it. Now, with such doubts on her mind of the order, she’s gone into hiding, but even then she still carries herself as a confident woman. She just knows how to diminish her presence when she needs too. When she speaks she tends to speak clearly and in a way that she believes she knows what she’s doing, though she gets moments of nervousness and uncertainty where that voice may shrink back a little. Generally when she’s still learning or unsure about something. Her appearance has never bothered her, being a Togruta, she stands out a bit, especially with montrals and orange skin, but she’s never let that stop her. She’s proud of who she is.
Mentally she’s strong and sharp minded. A very good strategist (and she learned most of that from her masters). When she was younger she was very cocky but also snippy, which earned her the name ‘Snips’ from Master Skywalker. Like her master she was known to be eager for battle and aggressive in it, though over time she has mellowed out a bit. She has grown to understand the value of when to fight and when not to, though she will more likely jump into battle without hesitation as the situation needs it. She’s feisty and won’t let others hold her down. She has been seen to be willing to use terror and threats to get the answers she wants or needs but never crossing the line to anything endangering.
When put on trial for something she never did, she found that it was her closest friend framed her for it. She was removed from the Jedi Order and felt that none of them, other than her Master, had her back. The lack of trust from the Jedi Masters really got her down, as she has been nothing but loyal and strong to them. As the trial ended and she was offered to rejoin the Jedi Order, she apologized to her Master and declined, seeing the problems with the order and no longer holding faith in it. She backed away from it to form her own path. Some time later, when Order 66 was given (an order to turn the clones on the Jedi and kill them all) she was hit with intense grief and guilt for not being there to try and help when it happened. For having left her masters and friends. She knows that if she had been there she too would no doubt be dead, but she also has the stubborn confidence enough to believe she could have made a difference. That her presence there at their sides could have helped.
When it comes to people she tries not to grow attachments, even being outside the Jedi Order now, which forbid major attachments. Even at that, she had grown very attached to her Master and the other masters of the order, to the point that she feels great sorrow over their losses. She tends to be drawn to strong people, especially strong minded people. She makes friends easy and if there is any feeling of ‘trust’ between her and another she will be fairly loyal. If there is at all the smallest bit of distrust, she will be very cautious around that person until they have earned some form of small trust.
She does very well on her own, though she also hates BEING alone. After the betrayal of her friend and the court trails that she was framed for, she found she really didn’t want to make friends. Pushing herself away from people has become her first priority. After all, she allowed herself to believe and trust in her friends and her entire life has flipped and crumbled because of it. She will be a little more careful with strangers and people who want to try and get close. There is also the fact that Jedi are being hunted and killed. She may not be of the order anymore but she knows she has to be careful about what she does.
Ahsoka tends to be motivated by helping others. She’s trained all her life to be a Peacekeeper and wants to help others who are in a bind, less fortunate and troubled. When she sees people being unjustly held back she wants to try and help them to the best of her abilities. This entire war has been a lesson in when to fight and when to hold back and think. Sometimes the best strategies are to hold back and wait, allowing others to learn by their own lead and mistakes. That kind of thing is hard for her because she would rather be in the mess trying her best to help instead of sitting back and watching people bumble through it all. Unfortunately because of the fall of the Jedi, she was doing more 'stand back and hide' then jumping in to help. It's best to let others deal with their own messes than to get any of them killed for being around an ex-Jedi. She has however started working as an informant to Bail Organa and the Rebellion, so that's something.
Ahsoka is a generous and kindhearted young woman who has had a lot on her shoulders since a very young age. Because of all her worldly travels she is seen as being more experienced than others who are of her age. Even then she is still often surprised by various events and how people handle themselves in hard situations and war. Being trained from such a young age has given her lots and lots of experience. Experience in things she would be pleased to pass on to others, though she tries to conceal her background as best she can. Meaning she's grown very good at lying. Or, slight fibs. Mostly just to keep her safe as well as others.
While growing older she's gotten stronger, faster and better at sneaking and hiding. She works as an informant for the rebellion named Fulcrum, a name she took on herself. She has faced Darth Vader and realizes who he was before, which is a huge grief. Having been here before, some time ago for her, she will remember things as if it were far in the last, and wonder why she didn't remember them before. She will want to make connections here again that she had lost, and help others in need.
Abilities:
A linked List
Ahsoka was of Padawan Status of Jedi, though she was advanced at that and could have made a skilled Knight someday. I will try to give you a general overview of her linked powers, as Jedi tend to have a long list of abilities. I will have a open opt out powers post and will never assume use of anything that might be character controlling however. The Force works in mysterious ways.
The Force is a power that comes from all things. It surrounds us and binds us and holds us together and all that jazz. She has a connection to it, which means she has a few more super human abilities that come with that. Using the Force she can influence her surroundings, giving her better speed, agility and balance, as well as telekinetic abilities like levitating things to her, being able to jump very high heights or catch herself from very long falls. With some concentration she can influence the weak minded or misdirect people with it or even bring a touch of a calming presence to those who need it. Her senses are sharper than normal people of her race, who already have very sharp hearing.
Trained as a Jedi, Ahsoka has two hand held weapons called lightsabers, a sword made of ‘light’ basically. She generally uses the Jar’kai method of utilizing two lightsabers, as well as skilled use of Form V (Shien or Djem So) which is a more defensive stance in fighting. It is know for it’s reversed grip and being proficient in deflecting attacks back on people. She was considered very good at a young age. Her reverse grip on her blades is slightly unconventional but it works very well for her. She has trained long and hard on her lightsaber combat skills and has gone head to head with some major power houses before. At this point in time she will be reluctant to use them unless needed.
Her Lightsabers. She has two, one standard white bladed long Lightsaber and one Shoto blade that is also pure white and slightly shorter than her standard blade. She will use the longer blade more often but the shoto will come out for two blade combat. She took the corrupted crystals from an Inquisitor and purified them herself, which is why they are both white now.
Other more practical skills include being a fairly good pilot (though she’s not on the same level as her old master), as well as pretty good ship mechanic. This also includes mild droid repairs. She understands Astromech bleeps and tweets and is generally pretty good with droids, thanks to Master Anakin’s Artoo unit.
She has some leadership skills and has managed large battalions of troops before. She’d rather not have to deal with that again though, but in a state of emergency, she’s fairly efficient with direction giving and leadership.
On a racial side of things, she is a Togruta which is a race of bright skinned people with white markings on their faces to help them camouflage in their home world. The points at the top of her head, montrals, act as her hearing and sensing receptors. A Togruta can generally sense movements around them to a scope of 82 feet, give or take. Add in her Force influence and that range is much longer.
Alignment:
Daimonia! Grief and Joy
When she was originally here she was aligned to Daimonia as well. I thought for a moment it might change to Sosyne, especially from the point I am taking her from, but honestly, I feel Daimonia is still rather fitting. There are a lot of others that would be fitting, but the canon point I am taking, this would be the one she would relate to most at the moment. Heavy on the grief side of things, for all those she has lost. Still some joy though, in small moments of her life.
Other:
I'm bringing her back from playing her before, but she was younger before. So it's a bit like a canon update, really? I'll link her first app here as well. I intend to bring her back with memories of her past time being here, if that is acceptable.
