Born as a noble of Coruscant, she had everything a young girl could ever dream of. Beautiful dresses, shoes, jewelry, pets, the love of both of her parents. She had the dream life and she knew it well. Her father worked for a Senator of the Republic, a proud man that paid his father very well for his time and services. Her mother was a seamstress, creating the very best gowns fit for Senators wives. Truly their lives were blessed and simple.

Though with the simple life came the single price tag. She was never allowed out of the house, nor was news of outside permitted within the house. So she grew, knowing nothing of the Mandalorians, the Sith…or even the Jedi. Such topics were forbidden within her large estate and for her, ignorance was bliss. She grew a happy, healthy and strong young woman who loved her parents and her life, though through the years, the curiosity of what was behind the ever sealed doors grew.

At 21, she was told her father had found a proper suitor for her. Soon her future husband would begin to court her with beautiful and lavish gifts, flowers, and a ring with a truly valuable gemstone at the top, all as engagement gifts. This would continue for a year before her father had arranged the wedding date. Though to her dismay, even the wedding would be kept in the house. Away from the rabble outside.

Many days did she plead for an outdoor wedding as her wedding gift from her parents, all of which were refused. They promised the wedding would be truly beautiful as she was and that she would love it. Though the night before she found herself back at her window, questioning the world outside her home and the life she had before her. She began to realize, if she didn’t leave now, they would never let her outside the house. She would be married and soon with child, and never have left her home ever.

Leaving a note for her parents, and for her fiancé, she carefully climbed out her window, down the Rose trellis on her wall and out into the world. Rushing away and having packed next to nothing, she stole onto a ship and hid until she was found two days later by the crew who looked more then a bit unhappy for a stow-away and dumped her as quickly as possible on CZ-220. Not wanting the political hassle of some run away girl and having to answer for kidnapping, they washed their hands of the matter and flew off, leaving her to a life of adventure on this new world that was just waiting for her.
