Except when in disguise, she prefers to keep her long hair down and in curls, and wears clothes that combine practicality with the height of fashion. She's found that 'dressing down' is one of the most effective ways of concealing the only daughter of the main line of one of the most powerful families on Anaxes.Personality Istara's true personality -- when she's not adopting one guise or another -- is pretty much that of an academic. She likes to talk at length about politics or economics, and so it's not always obvious to see how she gets everyone to agree with her. But she has become convinced the Empire's continued existance is dangerous to the future of the galaxy, and her dedication to that causes underscores much of what she does now.Background Istara began her studies at the university mostly because she wanted to make something of herself before she was married off to some young aristocrat that her father picked out for her. Indeed, she had intended to show him that rather than handing off his businesses to her cousins or her husband, he really should give his daughter a chance. She had flown through her first degree, but when working on her second, two things would happen that changed her life forever. The first was that Professor Atton Serrano of the political science department asked the talented economics student to help him with a forecast he was doing for the Imperial government. She'd need to get a security clearance for the work, but she was a Kandorian. The conclusions of that paper -- that the Empire was not capable of sustaining itself much more than another fifty years -- had led her to some very cautious student exploring of the edges of the anti-Imperial movement. And she had met the professor's son Waric, just out of the Imperial Navy Academy. Not long after that decided that if she was going to be married off to some aristocratic Navy Officer, she had the one picked out. It wasn't long before they were plotting out the future they were supposed to have... if they really were willing to do what they were expected to do to get it.After the Ghorman Massacre, hanging out inquisitively on the edge of student protests wasn't an option to her anymore. She created a guise for herself -- with her hair in a bun, much cheaper -- and less flattering -- clothes, glasses she didn't need, and an accent she'd copied from one of the servants, she found she could play the rebellious slicer-girl fairly well, and it was in that role that she first became active with the Rebel underground. She organized demonstrations under an alias and then participated in them as herself -- as a low-level protester, it was better to be a Kandorian. But she also arranged for a copy of the report she and Professor Serrano had worked on to reach Mon Motha. And after the Senate was dissolved, she sent a highly encoded message to the Rebellion's political leader, letting her know the true identity of 'the Invisible Hand' and asking how she could best help.Waric had returned home from leave just before then, told her he didn't see any way he could change things from the Imperial fleet, and was intending to get out of the Navy as quickly as possible and try to change things from the political side. And he'd asked her to marry him. She'd said yes, and then Alderaan was destroyed.A few weeks later, she'd recieved a heavily encrypted message at one of her slicer-girl aliases. Alderaan had convinced Waric that change from within wasn't possible, and that he couldn't just stand aside. He was going to join the Rebel fleet. Could she join him at Yavin?She hadn't intended to stay long. In truth, she'd intended to go back to Anaxes, where her connections gave her access that few Rebel operatives had. But she'd been there when the Imperials hit. And there were few people who knew computers like she did, which meant she found herself volunteering to make sure all the data left behind was destroyed, and be one of the last ones out.R2-K2R2-series Astromech droid[/sblock]</blockquote>
