Background

Lyta Conora was born on Chandrila to a middle-income family. Her tendency to pick fights at school - and routinely win over older and larger bullies - revealed her strength with the Force and an angry streak that would become dangerous if left unchecked. She was apprenticed to the Paladins of the Hydian Way, where she thrived in the warrior order.

The Paladins of the Hydian Way were one of the first orders to join in protracted conflict with the emerging Sith Empire as it spread along the trade route they claimed protection over. Unfortunately, the Paladins' pride and early refusal to request outside help was one of the reasons the Republic as a whole was slow to recognize the Sith threat. As the Paladins eked out pyrrhic victories against the Sith onslaughts, Lyta distinguished herself and over decades of fighting rose from Knight-Sergeant to Knight-Lieutenant and Knight-Captain - and by that time, when the remaining paladins did request outside help, there wasn't a quorum of Masters left to elevate her to Knight-Colonel.

In the doomed defense of Taris, Lyta lost her arm in a duel with the veteran Sith jedi-killer Darth Vidia, but in her burst of pain and anger cut down the Sith limb by limb before passing out from shock. She was rescued from the battlefield and evacuated back to Chandrila, where the Paladins were reforming and wanted to elevate her to Knight-General - a Jedi Master - but she rebuffed them. She had had far too much of leading people to their deaths and seen the abyss of the Dark Side staring back. She left the Paladins.

Instead of becoming entirely ronin, she turned to the Order of the Force in Motion, a sect of wanderers, swooping in where the Force wills to defend people and places who would otherwise be overlooked. But after years of wandering (and drinking), she got the sinking feeling that the Force wanted her in the greater conflict again, when her homeworld of Chandrila fell and her path crossed with Senator Mon Mothma, who was on her way to a summit of governments-in-exile hosted by Corellia. Lyta was still in the Senator's entourage when the attack on Coruscant came, and kept her hidden until she was able to steal a Sith shuttle and escape.

After parting ways with Senator Mothma, she's skeptical the Republic Remnant will be able to pull its act together, but it's the only hope for a lot of the galaxy...

...and she's going to have to be in the thick of it again.
