Canon Point: after her death on Azure + game memories from LoMB
Appearance: Siri stands at 5’8, lithe and atheletic, with long, sandy blonde hair and striking blue eyes. Her usual style of dress is Jedi robes of browns and creams, with a brown cloak, sturdy brown leather boots, and a brown leather utility belt, on/in which she keeps all the Jedi odds and ends, or a close fitting uni-suit made of leather, with leather boots, gloves and the utility belt with her Jedi odds and ends. Although, since her stay in the Land of Make Believe, she’s expanded her style of dress some, outside the usual Jedi purview/wardrobe choice.
History: Born in the year 55 BBY, Siri was taken to the Jedi Temple at the age of two and raised within its walls. As a youngling she was noted for her skill in lightsaber combat. Her... spirited disposition led her to having quite the rivalry with fellow Jedi trainee Bruck Chun. She was fiercely loyal to the Jedi Order. Even the first time she spoke with Obi-Wan, she called him an insult to all potential Padawans, because he was taking a leave of absence. This was, of course, before she was chosen as a Padawan herself. It was prior to her being chosen that she aided Obi-Wan in tracing Bruck’s connection in Xanatos’ infiltration of the Temple.
A few months afterwards, she was chosen by Jedi Master Adi Gallia to be her Padawan learner. The two accompanied Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan on several missions. The first of which was an assignment to the planet Keegan, where they were supposed to collect an infant girl for training and open communication with the isolated planet. They discovered the corruption of the Benevolent guides and, in the end, were able to take the Force sensitive infant back with them to the Temple. Shortly after that, Siri and her Master were contacted by Jedi Master Tahl while looking into the disappearance of Master Noor R’aya. She wanted them to go to Simpla-12 to assist Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. The information Siri’s master uncovered about the case the other Master had been assigned gave her reason to believe that Jenna Zan Arbor was behind Qui-Gon’s kidnapping, as well as that of R’aya. Obi-Wan confirmed that his master was missing, and together the trio infiltrated Zan Arbor’s compound.
At the end of the mission, Qui-Gon was rescued, but Zan Arbor got away with Master R’aya.
It was years into her friendship with Obi-Wan that everything... changed. Their Masters were assigned to be bodyguards for a young boy named Talesan Fry, who had overheard a plot to assassinate over twenty senators, and they brought Siri and Obi-Wan along to Cirrus (as befit their Padawan status). They managed to escape the planet, but the bounty hunter was too determined, so they (mostly) faked a crash on the nearby planet Quadrant Seven. Obi-Wan and Siri were sent with Talesan into the nearby caves, while the Masters went to investigate the nearby settlements. It was during their time in the caves, during their bickering (perhaps because of their bickering), that they expressed their feelings for each other; they decided to put their focus on the mission.
After receiving a distorted comm message from Qui-Gon, they debated on where they should taken Talesan. There was a mention of an uncle on Qexis, but this simply led to more debate between the two teenagers. Eventually they decided to steal a transport to Coruscant, and because of Talesan and his technological skills they were able to bypass the security system. However, they didn’t bypass the anti-theft mechanism. It activated, which made it so that the ship would explode coming out of hyperspace. It was then that Siri and Obi-Wan truly recognized their feelings for one another. The two Padawans agreed to discuss things more after the mission was completed.
There was just one way around the anti-theft mechanism. So Talesan sent out a distress signal, which caught the attention of Magus and his pirates; the bounty hunters' ship used its interdiction field to pull their ship out of hyperspace without an explosion. Talesan gave himself up to protect Obi-Wan and Siri. They reunited with their masters and went to his rescue on Rondai-2. They learned that the bounty hunters had been hired by Passel Argente, who was with the Corporate Alliance; he was targeting his political enemies. The Jedi confronted Magus and his men, rescuing Talesan. Magus, however, fled.
Once Talesan was safe, and after having a talk with Qui-Gon and Yoda about the consequences of Qui-Gon’s love for Master Tahl. They chose to abandon their love, and vowed to never speak of it again. It caused their friendship to lessen, to become comrades as opposed to the close (possibly best) friends they had been previously.
It was shortly after the invasion of Naboo that Siri had a major disagreement with Gallia, which led to her being dismissed as a Padawan, and her leaving the Order. Cutting her hair, dying it red, she joined the slave trader Krayn and took the name Zora. She became his right hand woman. Most Jedi thought she was a traitor, and when Obi-Wan and his new apprentice Anakin crossed her path they thought the same. They were wrong, however. It was part of an undercover operation set up by the Council to overthrow Krayn’s slave trading operation. Anakin, who was captured and made a slave, inadvertently broke her cover, which led to her being imprisoned alongside him. Working together, they convinced the slaves to revolt. And with Obi-Wan’s help from the outside, they took out Krayn and ended his operation. Due to her years undercover, she picked up several habits that were decidedly unusual for a Jedi, habits that lingered in some fashion until her death on Azure (despite her attempts to break them). She was more affectionate, and was known to curse. It made her a little more restless, a little less inclined to listen wholeheartedly to the Council.
With her undercover mission at an end, Siri was welcomed back to the Order.Upon her return, she was made a Knight, and took a Padawan of her own. His name was Ferus Olin. He accompanied her on many missions; evacuating the planet Radnor (a mission that Obi-Wan and Anakin were sent on as well), discovering a plot to rig the Galactic Games on Euceron.
Siri and Ferus, as well as Obi-Wan and Anakin, were sent to infiltrate the Leadership school Andara after the son of a senator went missing. Their apprentices went undercover as students, while Siri and Obi-Wan posed as Queen and King of Cortella considering the enrollment of their children at the school.
Siri and her apprentice were dispatched to rescue Obi-Wan and Anakin from Jenna Zan Arbor on Vanqor. She escaped, and they continued to attempt to track her down, with Obi-Wan and Anakin the primary pursuers. Siri had promised to help Obi-Wan capture Zan Arbor, and she fully intended on keeping her word. So when they traced her to the planet Romin, she and Ferus joined them. Posing as thieves (known as the Slams), they gained entrance to Romin. Siri parted ways with her Padawan, going with Obi-Wan while Ferus and Anakin explored the city. The two Masters met with Zan Arbor and stole her datapad.
That datapad revealed that Jenna Zan Arbor was corresponding with Granta Omega, the son of Qui-Gon’s old apprentice Xanatos and responsible for the murder of Jedi Master Yaddle. So they planted a tracker on the ship, in the hopes that she would lead them to him.
It led them to the planet, Falleen. Zan Arbor and Roy Teda, who had fled Romin with her, were staying in a hotel. Siri took Ferus to investigate, while Obi-Wan and Anakin went to investigate the Blackwater Systems factory that had been built disregarding safety laws. The factory ended up being destroyed to cover up the illegal activities, and Siri, along with Ferus, barely arrived in time to rescue Obi-Wan and Anakin. Discovering that their quarry had already fled the planet, and before they could continue to follow the trail, they were recalled to Coruscant by Mace Windu. There were accusations being made by anti-Jedi faction and they were needed to help defend their Order.
It turned out that Omega, Zan Arbor and Teda had returned to the capital planet as well. They had plans to assassinate hundreds of senators and dignitaries. Siri and Ferus discovered what they thought was their hideout, calling on Obi-Wan and his apprentice to assist them in checking it out. There was nothing inside but three droidekas and a group of seeker droids, and no evidence of what they were planning. Later the assassination plot was discovered, and Siri, Obi-Wan, and Anakin went in hot pursuit of Teda, Zan Arbor and Omega, while Ferus remained behind to defend the senators and dignitaries from the assassin droids. In the end, Teda ended up dead, and Zan Arbor and Omega escaped once again.
Siri, Ferus, Obi-Wan, and Anakin, headed to Korriban, where the two criminals had been reported. This time, they were accompanied by Soara Antana, her Padawan Darra Thel-Tanis, Ry-Gaul, and his Padawan Tru Veld. Their investigation in Korriban’s capital city (Dreshdae) led them to Zan Arbor and Omega in the Valley of the Dark Lord, where they planned on meeting with the mysterious Sith Lord.
Veld’s lightsaber began to fail, and he switched with Ferus. When it failed entirely, Thel-Tanis rushed to the other Padwan’s aid, only to take a blaster shot from Omega. Omega fled for the meeting, followed closely by Obi-Wan and Anakin. When it was all over, Thel-Tanis was dead, Omega was dead at Obi-Wan’s hand, betrayed by the very Sith Lord he had gone to meet, and Zan Arbor escaped.
The death of Thel-Tanis caused Ferus to leave the Order. After his resignation, Siri never took another Padawan, choosing instead to work alone. She would, on occasion, work with the pilot Nym and his squadron, the Lok Revenants. They would eventually part ways, but not until after defeating the Trade Federation more than once. And even then, they would fight together again, alongside her former Master and other Jedi pilots (using the Delta-7 Aethersprite starfighters).
During the battle of Geonosis (around the time of the battle in the arena) Siri was introduced to the Galactic Republic’s brand new clone army and led a group of troopers alongside Gallia in an assault on a power plant that fueled the droid foundries in the surrounding area. They first excorted the Republic Assault ship Aken to the surface, with its thousands of clone troopers and Master Yoda himself aboard. Once they'd battled past Geonosian starfighters and the blockade of Trade Federation missile frigates they went down to the planet's surface to lead several LAAT/i gunships that were at their command to deploy the clone troopers near the plant. They defended their men on the ground and in the air from the Separatists forces, as the clone troopers made their way inside the plant and set explosives. Once the plant had been destroyed, they headed to space, where they guarded the republic transports and stopped Separatists transports from escaping. Together they engaged Cavik Toth’s Hex fleet, killing Toth in the process.
Following Geonosis, Siri went to Kamino to investigate the sighting of Slave-1 (Mace Windu had killed the owner, Jango Fett, early in the battle for Geonosis). She very nearly discovered his son, Boba Fett, while she was there, but he had prior warning and was able to avoid her.
Eventually she would reunite with Obi-Wan and Anakin, on a mission to Genian. That mission also reunited her with Talesan Fry, who she had met years ago. The Separatists were after a code-breaking mechanism that Talesan had invented. The reunions brought back memories of the past for her, and of the feelings she had for Obi-Wan. After convincing him to put the device in the hands of the Republic, they were attacked, by yet another blast from the past. Magus, the bounty hunter who had hounded them years ago and killed Talesan’s parents.
Talesan accompanied them (and Padmé) to Azure, where the Republic was fighting more Separatists. While Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Fry fought off Magus’ attack (Magus was working for the Corporate Alliance), Siri and Padmé took a fighter to go after Magus himself. Once they reached him, Siri took a huge leap from their craft, managing to land on his fighter. She broke into his ship and they fought, which lead to the star fighter crash landing on the planet
By the time the other Jedi found them, Padmé and Talesan had Magus at gun point, and Siri was fatally injured, having been shot by Magus before their arrival. She stopped Obi-Wan from attempting to save her, knowing that she was dying and not wanting him to leave her in a vain attempt to get bacta. She expressed her love for him again, giving him the blue warming crystal she had from their first mission with Talesan. As she did so, she told him that she would always be with him, to not worry so much...
And then Siri died.
Previous Game History, IF APPLICABLE: Siri was yanked from the moment of her death to the Land of Make Believe, in the beginning of July. Upon her arrival she was re-united with several people from her universe. Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Padmé. She was rather abrupt in her first communication with the other transplants to the castle, and this was when she learned that, for Obi-Wan, her death hadn’t happened yet. And her abrupt announcement of it was how he found out. She felt badly about it, but she hadn’t realised that he wasn’t HER Obi-Wan, the one who had had to watch her die.
Her time in LoMB was spent finding her footing, and a job, learning the ins and outs of things most people that weren’t Jedi knew how to do, and trying to deal with what returning to life meant. The Land of Make Believe celebrated several holidays that Siri was unfamiliar with, but as odd as she found them, there was a certain degree of curiosity about them.
Having familiar faces there helped her immensely. And she started making friends, chatting with people like Wade Wilson (who introduced her to something called Skittles), and H.G Wells. Her time in LoMB was spent finding her footing, and a job, learning the ins and outs of things most people that weren’t Jedi knew how to do (like shopping and choosing clothes that weren’t Jedi robes or clothing for undercover missions), and trying to deal with what returning to life meant. She did her best to deal with things on her own, to keep what she was going through to herself, but finding out that Anakin would turn to the Dark Side, destroy the Order, and kill Obi-Wan didn’t help. But she did her best to deal with everything that LoMB was throwing at her, managing to deal with what she learned of their universe’s future.
Every so often the LoMB would turn things upside down, which was how she ended up taking several temporary Padawans when Anakin and Obi-Wan swapped bodies with non-Jedi. Shortly before that happened she had learned that there was a Force technique to hide things in the Force, and asked Anakin to teach her. In doing so she inadvertently set into motion what would eventually end up progressing the twenty years of feelings and attachment between her and Obi-Wan.
When Ahsoka arrived, Siri finally got to meet Anakin’s Padawan, who had been raised after her death and as such they hadn’t had an opportunity to meet in their universe. They took to exercising together, once a week, be it swimming or jogging, depending on the weather. And with so many Jedi together, it was decided to begin training.
She started to grow somewhat accustomed to her surroundings, working through her issues with her death and subsequent resurrection. And attachments. Emotions. FEELINGS. She’d been in love with Obi-Wan for twenty years; her feelings for him hadn’t gone anywhere, and they weren’t going anywhere. Even though she was more adaptable due to her undercover work, she was still an ‘old Order Jedi’. It took time, and the gift of her warming crystal, but they made the decision to set aside their prior agreement and accept attachment. Eventually this meant that they became involved. Having spent so much time on her own while undercover with Krayn, relying on nothing but herself, the Force, and her connection to it, she had begun to think that perhaps second chances shouldn’t be wasted. And no matter how much her training was at war with what she was feeling, sometimes, she trusted in the conviction that this change wasn’t a bad one.
When the LoMB decided to de-age a handful of people, Siri was one of the ones caught up in it, reverting to the age of a young Padawan. She had fled the castle, surviving on the outskirts of the property, staying in the old defence tower and only venturing into the castle for food and baths. She hadn’t known anyone; Obi-Wan had felt like himself, but wrong, because he should have been her age. As soon as she was herself again, she sought him out. It was after everyone was back to normal that she discovered that Helena, during her own de-aging, had flirted with him. Jealousy and fear was something new, at least this particular strain of it, and she found herself awkwardly asking Mara for assistance in working through the new emotions.
Despite that, her relationship with Obi-Wan was... good. New, and strange, and sometimes seemed like it had to be a dream. But it was good. And life was good. She had friends, and a job, and something like normalcy. For certain quantities of ‘normal’. It wasn’t what her life was like before... but she found that that was okay. She was... happy.
Personality: Siri is... many things personality-wise. As a child she was tomboyish, stubborn, feisty, impatient... headstrong. Tenacious. She was so very determined and headstrong as an apprentice that it made it difficult for her to avoid combat, when she had the choice to. She had such focus and belief in herself that it made it difficult for her to work with others, believing, as she did, that she was strong enough to finish things on her own. She thought too much of her own abilities. As she grew older, that focus never changed, but she learned that wasn’t invincible. "I know now that I will not always be strong. I will not be afraid to recognize when I'm weak." She learned that it was all right to rely on other people, instead of charging off on her own. She found the balance between believing in herself and her abilities and overconfidence. That stubbornness, impatience, headstrong nature of hers... that all remained, but it was tempered. She grew a little bit less impatient, a little bit more prudent. Although, as Mace Windu pointed out, it was ‘a fault she has tried to correct, but one that often gets in her way’. She’s always geared for action.
There’s more depth to her than most people usually see; hidden under a layer of cool confidence. She once told Obi-Wan that she wondered if he expected her to have any feelings at all. Siri does, in fact. She simply doesn’t show always them (she’s always hidden them better than Obi-Wan), although those who know her well enough can sometimes pick up on them. And sometimes she can let them know what she’s feeling without speaking of them at all. But she’s never one to hide her feelings if she thinks it not necessary. She has no problem letting people know if she thinks an idea is ridiculous.
She’s incredibly sarcastic and witty (a definite deadpan snarker sort); for as long as she’s known Obi-Wan they’ve always bickered and bantered. Even in the middle of a crisis, Siri’s always able to joke. The Council didn’t particularly appreciate the levity in the Council chambers.
One thing that never changed was her loyalty to the Jedi Order. She was, and remained until her death, fiercely loyal to the Order she’d sworn her life to. Her first conversation with Obi-Wan, where she called him a disgrace to Padawans because he was taking a leave of absence from the Order. That loyalty, that duty, was what enabled her to turn away from what she felt for Obi-Wan. There were regrets, but she felt that she had lived the life she wanted to live. The loss of their friendship, that closeness (becoming comrades, rather than best friends) was the largest of her regrets. Until they had a chance to mend that fence shortly before her death.
Special facts/special abilities about your character: She has all the abilities associated with the use of the Force (as a Jedi is wont to do). The Force enhances her senses, all of them (sight, smell, sound, taste and touch), and gives her skills beyond that of human in agility, reflexes, endurance, strength; as well as a variety of other abilities. These include: sensing those around her and their emotional states (Force sense), jumping higher and farther than a normal human has the ability to (Force leap), communicating with other Jedi (telepathy), the ability to move items/people without touching them (Force push/pull/throw/telekinesis), the Jedi mind trick, Force persuasion (a weaker form of the Jedi mind trick), increase the resolve, accuracy, and speed of herself and her allies (Force valor), and others. On top of that she has an extraordinary sensitivity to Force warnings.
She is immensely skilled with a lightsaber, almost on par with Obi-Wan himself. She’s had training in all the Forms, and doesn’t prefer one over any others (although, due to her Master being Adi Gallia, she is quite good/familiar with Form V, Shien, with reverse grip or no, and she does use Form IV, Ataru quite a lot). She’s a highly adaptable fighter, and will use which form suits best the fight at hand. She fought so long and so often alongside Obi-Wan that they learned to merge their styles.
She is also an excellent pilot, approaching the task artfully.

PART 3 - Writing Samples
1. First Person Writing Sample: Siri gains a temporary herd of Padawans due to LoMB shenanigans.
2. Third Person Writing Sample: An agreement is set aside.
3. First or Third person Sample: This was beginning to get kriffing ridiculous. First the Land of Make Believe. Now here. Not that she had minded being pulled into the Land of Make Believe in the end, even if she had had difficulty dealing with what her return to life meant in the beginning (the Order didn’t cover that in their teachings). But she’d adapted, dealt with things, with what she had learned of their universe’s future. Of Obi-Wan’s future, and Anakin’s. Even started thinking of the Land of Make Believe of something like home. Mostly because of Obi-Wan and the others. Particularly Obi-Wan. But this wasn’t the Land of Make Believe.
No.
This... was somewhere else. Somewhere new. The viscous purple material was certainly... different. It had been almost as overwhelming as her arrival in the Land of Make Believe, only for a very different reason. At least time she wasn’t still reeling from her death. But the information she’d just been told was taking her some time to fully... absorb. The only thing that made this second... move, easier was that she could still sense Obi-Wan, his presence as strong as it had been in the castle. Anakin. Ahsoka. So it wasn’t just her. Had they been brought together? Or was it just... coincidence?
She found herself thinking that maybe it was the Force, giving them a bit of luck.Giving her a bit of... grounding. A little bit of happiness. Her first concern was finding them. Finding Obi-Wan. Anything else could come later. After that.

In the end, Teda ended up dead, and Zan Arbor and Omega escaped once again.
Siri, Ferus, Obi-Wan, and Anakin, headed to Korriban, where the two criminals had been reported. This time, they were accompanied by Soara Antana, her Padawan Darra Thel-Tanis, Ry-Gaul, and his Padawan Tru Veld. Their investigation in Korriban’s capital city (Dreshdae) led them to Zan Arbor and Omega in the Valley of the Dark Lord, where they planned on meeting with the mysterious Sith Lord.
Veld’s lightsaber began to fail, and he switched with Ferus. When it failed entirely, Thel-Tanis rushed to the other Padwan’s aid, only to take a blaster shot from Omega. Omega fled for the meeting, followed closely by Obi-Wan and Anakin. When it was all over, Thel-Tanis was dead, Omega was dead at Obi-Wan’s hand, betrayed by the very Sith Lord he had gone to meet, and Zan Arbor escaped.
The death of Thel-Tanis caused Ferus to leave the Order. After his resignation, Siri never took another Padawan, choosing instead to work alone. She would, on occasion, work with the pilot Nym and his squadron, the Lok Revenants. They would eventually part ways, but not until after defeating the Trade Federation more than once. And even then, they would fight together again, alongside her former Master and other Jedi pilots (using the Delta-7 Aethersprite starfighters).
During the battle of Geonosis (around the time of the battle in the arena) Siri was introduced to the Galactic Republic’s brand new clone army and led a group of troopers alongside Gallia in an assault on a power plant that fueled the droid foundries in the surrounding area. They first excorted the Republic Assault ship Aken to the surface, with its thousands of clone troopers and Master Yoda himself aboard. Once they'd battled past Geonosian starfighters and the blockade of Trade Federation missile frigates they went down to the planet's surface to lead several LAAT/i gunships that were at their command to deploy the clone troopers near the plant. They defended their men on the ground and in the air from the Separatists forces, as the clone troopers made their way inside the plant and set explosives. Once the plant had been destroyed, they headed to space, where they guarded the republic transports and stopped Separatists transports from escaping. Together they engaged Cavik Toth’s Hex fleet, killing Toth in the process.
Following Geonosis, Siri went to Kamino to investigate the sighting of Slave-1 (Mace Windu had killed the owner, Jango Fett, early in the battle for Geonosis). She very nearly discovered his son, Boba Fett, while she was there, but he had prior warning and was able to avoid her.
Eventually she would reunite with Obi-Wan and Anakin, on a mission to Genian. That mission also reunited her with Talesan Fry, who she had met years ago. The Separatists were after a code-breaking mechanism that Talesan had invented. The reunions brought back memories of the past for her, and of the feelings she had for Obi-Wan. After convincing him to put the device in the hands of the Republic, they were attacked, by yet another blast from the past. Magus, the bounty hunter who had hounded them years ago and killed Talesan’s parents.
Talesan accompanied them (and Padmé) to Azure, where the Republic was fighting more Separatists. While Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Fry fought off Magus’ attack (Magus was working for the Corporate Alliance), Siri and Padmé took a fighter to go after Magus himself. Once they reached him, Siri took a huge leap from their craft, managing to land on his fighter. She broke into his ship and they fought, which lead to the star fighter crash landing on the planet
By the time the other Jedi found them, Padmé and Talesan had Magus at gun point, and Siri was fatally injured, having been shot by Magus before their arrival. She stopped Obi-Wan from attempting to save her, knowing that she was dying and not wanting him to leave her in a vain attempt to get bacta. She expressed her love for him again, giving him the blue warming crystal she had from their first mission with Talesan. As she did so, she told him that she would always be with him, to not worry so much...
And then Siri died.
Previous Game History, IF APPLICABLE: Siri was yanked from the moment of her death to the Land of Make Believe, in the beginning of July. Upon her arrival she was re-united with several people from her universe. Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Padmé. She was rather abrupt in her first communication with the other transplants to the castle, and this was when she learned that, for Obi-Wan, her death hadn’t happened yet. And her abrupt announcement of it was how he found out. She felt badly about it, but she hadn’t realised that he wasn’t HER Obi-Wan, the one who had had to watch her die.
Her time in LoMB was spent finding her footing, and a job, learning the ins and outs of things most people that weren’t Jedi knew how to do, and trying to deal with what returning to life meant. The Land of Make Believe celebrated several holidays that Siri was unfamiliar with, but as odd as she found them, there was a certain degree of curiosity about them.
Having familiar faces there helped her immensely. And she started making friends, chatting with people like Wade Wilson (who introduced her to something called Skittles), and H.G Wells. Her time in LoMB was spent finding her footing, and a job, learning the ins and outs of things most people that weren’t Jedi knew how to do (like shopping and choosing clothes that weren’t Jedi robes or clothing for undercover missions), and trying to deal with what returning to life meant. She did her best to deal with things on her own, to keep what she was going through to herself, but finding out that Anakin would turn to the Dark Side, destroy the Order, and kill Obi-Wan didn’t help. But she did her best to deal with everything that LoMB was throwing at her, managing to deal with what she learned of their universe’s future.
Every so often the LoMB would turn things upside down, which was how she ended up taking several temporary Padawans when Anakin and Obi-Wan swapped bodies with non-Jedi. Shortly before that happened she had learned that there was a Force technique to hide things in the Force, and asked Anakin to teach her. In doing so she inadvertently set into motion what would eventually end up progressing the twenty years of feelings and attachment between her and Obi-Wan.
When Ahsoka arrived, Siri finally got to meet Anakin’s Padawan, who had been raised after her death and as such they hadn’t had an opportunity to meet in their universe. They took to exercising together, once a week, be it swimming or jogging, depending on the weather. And with so many Jedi together, it was decided to begin training.
She started to grow somewhat accustomed to her surroundings, working through her issues with her death and subsequent resurrection. And attachments. Emotions. FEELINGS. She’d been in love with Obi-Wan for twenty years; her feelings for him hadn’t gone anywhere, and they weren’t going anywhere. Even though she was more adaptable due to her undercover work, she was still an ‘old Order Jedi’. It took time, and the gift of her warming crystal, but they made the decision to set aside their prior agreement and accept attachment. Eventually this meant that they became involved. Having spent so much time on her own while undercover with Krayn, relying on nothing but herself, the Force, and her connection to it, she had begun to think that perhaps second chances shouldn’t be wasted. And no matter how much her training was at war with what she was feeling, sometimes, she trusted in the conviction that this change wasn’t a bad one.
When the LoMB decided to de-age a handful of people, Siri was one of the ones caught up in it, reverting to the age of a young Padawan. She had fled the castle, surviving on the outskirts of the property, staying in the old defence tower and only venturing into the castle for food and baths. She hadn’t known anyone; Obi-Wan had felt like himself, but wrong, because he should have been her age. As soon as she was herself again, she sought him out. It was after everyone was back to normal that she discovered that Helena, during her own de-aging, had flirted with him. Jealousy and fear was something new, at least this particular strain of it, and she found herself awkwardly asking Mara for assistance in working through the new emotions.
Despite that, her relationship with Obi-Wan was... good. New, and strange, and sometimes seemed like it had to be a dream. But it was good. And life was good. She had friends, and a job, and something like normalcy. For certain quantities of ‘normal’. It wasn’t what her life was like before... but she found that that was okay. She was... happy.
Personality: Siri is... many things personality-wise. As a child she was tomboyish, stubborn, feisty, impatient... headstrong. Tenacious. She was so very determined and headstrong as an apprentice that it made it difficult for her to avoid combat, when she had the choice to. She had such focus and belief in herself that it made it difficult for her to work with others, believing, as she did, that she was strong enough to finish things on her own. She thought too much of her own abilities. As she grew older, that focus never changed, but she learned that wasn’t invincible. "I know now that I will not always be strong. I will not be afraid to recognize when I'm weak." She learned that it was all right to rely on other people, instead of charging off on her own. She found the balance between believing in herself and her abilities and overconfidence. That stubbornness, impatience, headstrong nature of hers... that all remained, but it was tempered. She grew a little bit less impatient, a little bit more prudent. Although, as Mace Windu pointed out, it was ‘a fault she has tried to correct, but one that often gets in her way’. She’s always geared for action.
There’s more depth to her than most people usually see; hidden under a layer of cool confidence. She once told Obi-Wan that she wondered if he expected her to have any feelings at all. Siri does, in fact. She simply doesn’t show always them (she’s always hidden them better than Obi-Wan), although those who know her well enough can sometimes pick up on them. And sometimes she can let them know what she’s feeling without speaking of them at all. But she’s never one to hide her feelings if she thinks it not necessary. She has no problem letting people know if she thinks an idea is ridiculous.
She’s incredibly sarcastic and witty (a definite deadpan snarker sort); for as long as she’s known Obi-Wan they’ve always bickered and bantered. Even in the middle of a crisis, Siri’s always able to joke. The Council didn’t particularly appreciate the levity in the Council chambers.
One thing that never changed was her loyalty to the Jedi Order. She was, and remained until her death, fiercely loyal to the Order she’d sworn her life to. Her first conversation with Obi-Wan, where she called him a disgrace to Padawans because he was taking a leave of absence from the Order. That loyalty, that duty, was what enabled her to turn away from what she felt for Obi-Wan. There were regrets, but she felt that she had lived the life she wanted to live. The loss of their friendship, that closeness (becoming comrades, rather than best friends) was the largest of her regrets. Until they had a chance to mend that fence shortly before her death.
Special facts/special abilities about your character: She has all the abilities associated with the use of the Force (as a Jedi is wont to do). The Force enhances her senses, all of them (sight, smell, sound, taste and touch), and gives her skills beyond that of human in agility, reflexes, endurance, strength; as well as a variety of other abilities. These include: sensing those around her and their emotional states (Force sense), jumping higher and farther than a normal human has the ability to (Force leap), communicating with other Jedi (telepathy), the ability to move items/people without touching them (Force push/pull/throw/telekinesis), the Jedi mind trick, Force persuasion (a weaker form of the Jedi mind trick), increase the resolve, accuracy, and speed of herself and her allies (Force valor), and others. On top of that she has an extraordinary sensitivity to Force warnings.
She is immensely skilled with a lightsaber, almost on par with Obi-Wan himself. She’s had training in all the Forms, and doesn’t prefer one over any others (although, due to her Master being Adi Gallia, she is quite good/familiar with Form V, Shien, with reverse grip or no, and she does use Form IV, Ataru quite a lot). She’s a highly adaptable fighter, and will use which form suits best the fight at hand. She fought so long and so often alongside Obi-Wan that they learned to merge their styles.
She is also an excellent pilot, approaching the task artfully.

PART 3 - Writing Samples
1. First Person Writing Sample: Siri gains a temporary herd of Padawans due to LoMB shenanigans.
2. Third Person Writing Sample: An agreement is set aside.
3. First or Third person Sample: This was beginning to get kriffing ridiculous. First the Land of Make Believe. Now here. Not that she had minded being pulled into the Land of Make Believe in the end, even if she had had difficulty dealing with what her return to life meant in the beginning (the Order didn’t cover that in their teachings). But she’d adapted, dealt with things, with what she had learned of their universe’s future. Of Obi-Wan’s future, and Anakin’s. Even started thinking of the Land of Make Believe of something like home. Mostly because of Obi-Wan and the others. Particularly Obi-Wan. But this wasn’t the Land of Make Believe.
No.
This... was somewhere else. Somewhere new. The viscous purple material was certainly... different. It had been almost as overwhelming as her arrival in the Land of Make Believe, only for a very different reason. At least time she wasn’t still reeling from her death. But the information she’d just been told was taking her some time to fully... absorb. The only thing that made this second... move, easier was that she could still sense Obi-Wan, his presence as strong as it had been in the castle. Anakin. Ahsoka. So it wasn’t just her. Had they been brought together? Or was it just... coincidence?
She found herself thinking that maybe it was the Force, giving them a bit of luck.
