Appearance

Physical Description

Somewhat lean hourglass figure with long legs; not muscular in the slightest. Stands average for a togruta at 6'3 at the top of her montrals, albeit still taller than many women of other species if measuring only to the top of the head.

Body Features

Nynri has a slim figure despite her height, more from her upbringing than anything proactive; wide hips and a modest bust are features that stand out on her slight build.

Her natural markings are as follows: hollow diamond markings with a chevron underneath each on her elbows, shoulders, and knees; a forked stripe on each hip; an Omega-like symbol on the small of her back, with a 'belt' above that that wraps around and creates the outline of a teardrop around her navel; two pairs of stripes on the sides of her ribs trailing from under her breasts to under her shoulderblades, a pair of marks on her nape, and a collar marking that trails up to her chin.

Facial Features

Piercing chartreuse irises draw the eye to Nynri's own, set in a smooth face punctuated by a well defined nose and soft wine-red lips set in a cocky smirk most of the time. Humoring (or annoying) her often leads to Nynri flashing a grin, showing off her sharp canines and carnassial teeth.

As with the rest of her body, her markings take the form of: two V-shaped marks on her cheeks that branch towards the back of her head; a pair of 'eyespots' on either side of an forked stripe running down from her forehead to the tip of her nose in the shape of an inverted teardrop's outline; a stripe trailing from her collar marking up to her lower lip.

Nynri's montrals take the shape of ridged horns with the demarcation between montral and headtail characterized by layered ridges. The electric blue markings resemble her body markings with diamonds and split stripes on the side headtails, but on the rear headtail they look much closer to traditional togruta striping.

Identifying Characteristics

Maroon skin, black montrals, white and blue geometric markings, chartreuse eyes that stare into you, hourglass figure.

Physical quirks

Two parallel scars on her left shoulderblade from a heavy object nearly landing on her; her precognition saving her was the first instance of her connection to the force.

Togruta are obligate carnivores, which means that Nynri lacks the ability to digest most plant matter. She usually just pushes veggies aside on her plate or puts them on someone elses', but will suffer through a dish that she can't separate the meat from.

Apparel & Accessories

Nynri usually wears a sleeveless imperial-cut cross button jacket over a cloak; paired with pair of slacks, knee high greaves, dress shoes and a pair of elbow-length fingerless gloves. A belt holds her bag, holocomm, datapad, and lightfoil; a shoulder strap with a pauldron sewn onto the belt holds her scattergun in a holster on her back.

Special abilities

Togruta often have a natural connection to the Force, and Nynri is no exception. Likewise, she shares in her species passive spatial awareness thanks to her montrals.

Mentality

Education

Abregado-rae has little in the way of formal education, so Nynri was raised on knowledge from the community. An academic aunt of hers that taught her how to read and write made sure to clear misconceptions every now and then when she visited, but one thing that was drilled into her head was a hatred for the Jedi Temple from the older folks; blaming the current state of the planet and the Tundei regime as the result of the Nebula Front being quelled by the Jedi.

Employment

Originally employed as a server in the LoBue Cantina at the Abregado-rae spaceport, but became enamored with the idea of being a dealer after seeing a big winner at a pazaak table put a huge tip in the hand of dealer. After the Tundei regime took hold of Abregado, the casino crackdowns led to her fleeing the planet to Nar Shaddaa, where she became an adventurer up to this point.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Growing up impoverished on a planet less developed than its neighbors meant Nynri had to toil to get where she is now; she considers every scrap she worked for something to be proud of.

Nynri's lightfoil was ante offered during a pazaak game on the day LoBue was closed down, and in the chaos of enforcers cracking down on gamblers, she took the saber and ran. It holds sentimental value to her as a reminder of what she escaped.

Failures & Embarrassments

While on Corellia with J-UN0, they made an attempt to cash in on a ship warranty two decades past expiration to repair several missing parts of their YT-775. After being accused of having stolen the ship, Nynri turned the conflict into a competition; win, and the mechanic repairs the ship, or hand it over on a loss. Needless to say, this was one game of sabacc that Nynri didn't win, leaving her and J-UN0 stuck on Corellia.

Mental Trauma

Nynri has a form of megalophobia stemming from the accident in her adolescence. Objects that could fall from above are sure to, and she refuses to walk under anything like that.

Intellectual Characteristics

Nynri has a passing knowledge, but her gut feelings and empathy are far more reliable than her intelligence. The Force first revealed itself to her by saving her life, so clearly the instincts granted by it should be listened to.

Morality & Philosophy

Someone getting the shit end of a deal is just part of the game to Nynri. She doesn't see it as fair to put someone in a situation that screws them, but if they walk into it themselves, that's on them.

Having had to grow up in poor conditions, she doesn't see theft as an inherently bad thing if it means survival; it's only when you put others in a tough situation that it becomes questionable.

Honor in a fight is a lie spread to keep people from giving all they've got to survive. Fighting dirty means you get to see tomorrow.

person.sexuality

Femininity is usually Nynri's preference in a partner, but there's been the occasional guy that's given her something to gaze at. To her it's more attractive to be someone that can match her in wit.

person.gender_identity

Nynri identifies as a parawoman; she feels that she's her assigned gender but always felt a bit on the outside looking in.

Known Languages

Like most in the galaxy, Basic; Togruti is a language she's vaguely familiar with but not quite fluent in due to not using it most of her life, she forgets to modulate her headtails.

Personality

Motivation

Selfish motivations such as wealth and fame are what Nynri claims to chase, but inside, she deeply wants for her home planet of Abregado-rae to become more than just the backwater of the core worlds.

She also has several debts piling up on her, and would like nothing more than to not have to watch her back for anyone trying to collect.

Quotes & Catchphrases

"Ooh, bad hand? Hey, don't give me that look, the best poker face couldn't hide that 'oh shit' feeling in your head."

"All I'm saying is there's lots of ways to make an impression." *tosses detonator*

"Oh- oh. Well, if that's how you were feeling about me, why didn't you just say so, instead of hiding it in your thoughts~?"

"So like, you won and I could give you your winnings now, but what if you let me hold on to it for another round?"

Savvies & Ineptitudes

It takes more than being able to shuffle cards to be a good dealer, and Nynri would consider herself to be a great one. Being able to draw people in and keep them engaged through rounds of losing to the house is integral, and her empathy via the Force only serves to better facilitate that.

Aside from that, her hedge training with the Force has given her outside knowledge of how to better wield her lightfoil, which she pairs with a scattergun in her offhand.

Likes & Dislikes

Nynri has a fondness for pau'an food, but reserves it for celebrations.

Having grown up with a connection to the Force without the philosophy of the light or dark side, Nynri feels alienated by attempts to categorize it as such and tends to verbally lash out at people entertaining the ideals of the Jedi or Sith.

She also harbors a particular hate of the Jedi Temple, due to sentiments from the older generations.

Virtues & Personality perks

Nynri sees risk as a way to prove oneself, and actively seeks it out. Perseverance is her core virtue, adversity refines someone into a better person.

Vices & Personality flaws

Nynri has a habit of trying to get another chance to win rather than accepting a loss; which comes across as either being a sore loser, or as a weakness one could press to their advantage. When it's time to pay and she can't she resorts to IOUs to buy her time.

Personality Quirks

Prefers to have her headtails resting together between her breasts rather than to the outside, unconsciously moves them in place if they shift.

Bites her tongue on the left side if she's stressed.

She's very used to wearing sleeveless clothing, and when wearing a sleeved top, often tries to brush away imaginary things off her upper arms.

Hygiene

Nynri keeps clean by bathing daily if possible, and adds dried citrom peels to the water to infuse the sweet spiciness of the fruit into her skin. She keeps her nails short, but coats them in durite lacquer polish to protect from damage.

Social

Birthplace

Abregado-rae

Contacts & Relations

J-UN0 was a droid she met near the start of her adventuring career, a class III that makes for a damn good pilot. They stuck together after getting out of their snag with Grakkus the Hutt, while the others went their own ways.

Nynri had a good rapport with her superior at LoBue before it was shut down, a devaronian woman who was the pit boss. Nynri isn't sure where she is now, or if the relationship soured from her leaving the planet.

Wealth & Financial state

While adventuring has been fortuitous, Nynri still owes a number of people due to her habit of doubling down on losses and the inevitable offer to pay back what she doesn't have on hand.

Family Ties

Her aunt Ishlaan is a professor on Coruscant, and her visits always heralded a new lesson for Nynri while growing up. Ishlaan gave her a more formal education than Nynri otherwise would've received on Abregado-rae, and urged her to think critically about things, even if they were ideas she agreed with.

Religious Views

Having grown up outside of a strong togruta culture, Nynri lacks the draw to nature as many on Shili do. As such, she doesn't follow the common stereotypes of walking barefoot or wearing hunting trophies.

Nynri's views of the Force are that it's simply a part of the universe, like gravity. Trying to characterize it with 'light' or 'dark' is like anthropomorphizing a storm or sunlight.

Social Aptitude

Nynri is very sociable, and regardless of whether it's just a trait of being a togruta, she'll pull a chair over for just about anyone. She finds herself able to talk herself out of- or into deeper- trouble more often than not.

Her assuredness often disarms others into thinking she's in over her head, which has worked in her favor more than once.

Mannerisms

Nynri's used to having had to flaunt her looks for tips as both a server and dealer, which she's refined to the point that it's subconscious for her.

Hobbies & Pets

Pazaak and sabacc decks of thematic designs are something Nynri collects, more for display than anything, as well as chance cubes of unusual shapes and markings.

Food, music, and media of other planets has always intrigued her, as a sort of 'what if' escapism for her home. Zeltron shows are a guilty pleasure.
