Species: Arkanian

Traits:

  • White eyes with no visible pupils

  • Four clawed digits on each hand.

  • Pure white skin, the result of genetic self-alteration to increase her resistance to radiation.


 

Abilities:

Arkanians are capable of seeing into the infrared spectrum, and their eyes are sensitive to sources of extreme heat.

This was helpful on their dark and frigid homeworld, but when travelling off-world, many must wear blinders on planets with hotter, younger suns. It was also not unusual for an Arkanian to enhance themselves with internal and/or external cybernetics. It was also standard practice for Arkanians to undergo genetic manipulation of their own bodies, enhancing themselves so as to be better than "lesser" species.

Zhansana has modified her eyes to hold secondary lenses to filter extraneous infra-red light.

Lightsaber forms:

​All Sith learn and study every form, but as they grow in skill, most will inevitably develop a special focus in certain forms, which they excel in above the rest.
 

  • Shii-Cho - It's simplicity becomes savagery given form, in the right hands.
     

  • Djem-So - despite her light frame, she excels in this form, having adapted it for speed over power.



Weapons:
 

  • Lightsaber
     

  • Poison dagger—An alchemically crafted dagger coated with microscopic barbs, each cut applies a unique alchemical compound with each cut, that slows cellular regeneration, even to the point of nullifying enhanced healing factors. Not sabre resistant and easy to break, it is a tool of torture more than anything else.

Background:
 

A former archaeology student who discovered her Force sensitivity while surveying ruins on Onderon, she was found by the Sith Arch-Mage, Aniolas, who trained her in the ways of the Sith, and helped her cultivate her aptitude for Sith magic.

Zhansana lost contact with Aniolas sometime before the Naboo-Galactic War, and has since struck out on her own, gathering resources as well as influence over Ylurka the Hutt of Sakiya, and the minor crime boss Sammy T'Amico of Naboo.

In her quest to become a true Arch-Mage of the Sith, she scours the galaxy, looking for lost relics and ancient knowledge, putting her training in archaeology to good use, and causing a frequent problem for Darth Seer, who also seeks such things. She also seeks to learn the mysterious ways of the Night-Sisters, to see if their powers can incorporated into her repertoire of spells.

The following is from a scroll she found on Korriban, containing spells she is also seeking to learn. "Botl of Hatred," is one she has already unlocked.
