She possesses and exotic beauty that many find hard to resist, regardless of her pheromones. Her body is in peak physical condition, and it is not uncommon for her to draw the eye of everyone as she passes down a street, men and women. Her skin is a light purple pigmentation, a rarity among her people who typically possess red skin. She accents her face with cosmetics in shades of blue, red, and purple. Her eyes are a deep, almost black, purple color. Naturally her hair is a reddish purple color, but she dyes it frequently.

Distinctive Features:
Dani has a silver ring in her navel; a small stud in her right nostril; a stud in her tongue; and several piercings in each ear; a glittering tattoo of a purple heart on her left buttock; a Zeltron tastri-cat climbing up her left shoulder blade

Professional History:
When Dani left her homeworld, she made her way as a starship mechanic. Her final stop left her at the Drogen shipyards, where she worked on on ships until she was discovered by Liam Zaneth. He revealed her affinity with the Force, and broght her back to the Jedi Temple on the planet below for training. She has since grown quite skilled and powerful as a Jedi Knight.

Background:
Dani comes from a planet called Zeltros. The planet actually has earned quite a reputation in the galaxy for the inhabitants are known for their unabashed pursuit of pleasure. Dani grew up as most of her species. The youth of Zeltros are kept apart from the wanton lust of the planet until they reach their twelfth year (or thereabouts). Once they have reached an age of biological sexual maturity, they are introduced to the customs of their species.

Before her Blossoming, Dani spent her days in school, and the times after school were spent with friends, or in the family studio painting or scuplting. On her twelfth birthday, a party was thrown for her. It was a wild and wonderful event, and she experienced her first Union. It was magic as she'd never dreamed.

Life resumed on a regular schedule with Dani growing and learning. With an interest in starships, she took on a job as an apprentice mechanic at the age of thirteen. She learned much working at one of the local spaceports, though she seemed to learn much more about bedsports. When she wasn't working, she was partying. She ate the most wonderful foods, drank the most amazing wines, and partook of drugs that heightened even the most mundane of tasks.

Two years later, Dani made a bold move and decided she wanted to see more of the galaxy: she was going to leave Zeltros. She decided there were far too many experiences out in the galaxy that she couldn't experience living where she was. A week after the celebration in her honor ended, Dani took a transport off Zeltros and set out for the adventure of her life. There were experiences and pleasures awaiting her, and she did not want to disappoint them.

Three months after she started out, the transport she was working on docked at the Drogen Shipyards of Chimaeria to sell some of the goods they'd been transporting and pick up new supplies.

After a short period on the Drogen Shipyards, during which time Dani thoroughly ruined any sort of civil relationship with station administrator, Shrezade Anoran, by getting involved intimately with the station's head of security. Her salvation from Drogen came in the form of Liam Zaneth and Nieme Yaresh-Selrid. They informed her that she had a talent with the Force, and they offered her a place within the Jedi Temple down on the planet's surface.

It wasn't long before Dani fell completely in love with Nieme, whose pure, unburdened emotions pulled at Dani like a blackhole. Nieme and Dani's relationship didn't sit well with Nieme's husband, Kael Selrid who attacked Dani during training, and used other tactics to terrorize her. In the end, Kael's jealousy drove Nieme and Dani from the Temple and back to Thanatos where they hoped to make a happy life for themselves.

Happiness didn't last long. The Feltreys, Kael's former gang, were not happy that Nieme had stolen Kael from them. They staged an attack on the Rhack where Dani and Nieme worked, and captured the two girls. Raeila and Ferrig, the two leaders of the gang, made each of the girls their personal pleasure slaves. It was truly a dark time for Nieme and Dani.

Thanks to a rescue effort by the Jedi, Nieme and Dani were freed. During her imprisonment, two things happened with Dani: 1) She fell deeply in love with Raeila; and 2) She experienced a growth spurt of power with the Force. Upon her return to the Temple and training, Dani found that she was learning quickly. She found control easily.

Had the situation with Nieme not worsened, Dani could have been tested as a Jedi Knight. Instead, Nieme fell to darkness, and Dani followed. There was some pull for her, but the largest reason for allowing herself to follow the dark path was to protect others from Nieme, and to protect Nieme from herself.

In a series of depraved acts, they managed to wrest control of the government to themselves, and through tyrannical means held control of the planet for several months. In the end, Nieme's condition grew worse, and Dani could not help being drawn back over to the light side. Just ahead of a Jedi invasion, Dani and Nieme escaped. They sought asylum with the Jedi and it was granted.

In time, the Jedi found they could trust Dani again, and while she was not reinstated, she was allowed free passage through the Temple. She split her time between the Temple and desert, sharing her time with Nieme (who was trapped in a coma-like state) and Raeila (who she had agreed to be the surrogate for the child Rae could not bear herself).

"The first to cause pain is the next to feel it, and the first to deny pleasure is the next denied."
A common phrase heard on Zeltros

Personality:
Dani is insatiably curious, and has a very hard time not examining everything that piques her curiosity, including people. Since leaving her home planet, she has learned the need for privacy, though she does not feel the need for it for herself (Coming from such an open culture left her little need for such a concept). Though, since she knows there are those who are more reserved with affection and physical contact, she makes sure she has permission before conducting an examination of those who pique her curiousity.

Dani is a very friendly and warm person. She is slow to anger and quick to forgive, and is never shy about hugging someone or showering them with affection. Though, she also quickly learned that the hug is not the universal greeting in the galaxy, and has adapted to the handshake when greeting those within whom she can sense a distance and reserve.

Form of Dress:
Dani is very fond of leather, and many of the synthetic leather fabrics found around the galaxy. She usually wears a pair of tight-fitting leather pants and boots, in addition to a top of some sort (she's not very picky about which kind as long as it looks nice). She wears a leather collar around her neck and a cuff around her right arm.

Superhuman Powers and Abilities
Dani has a very strong empathic sense and can feel others' emotions as if they were her own. Through the use of powerful pheromones, she can manipulate the emotions of others. In addition to the special abilities of her people, she is strongly Force sensitive. While she has not been raised to the level of Jedi Knight, Dani does possess the skills and talents of a full Jedi Knight.

Abilities and Skills:
Diplomacy, painting, sculpting, singing and dancing, lying, and repairing starships. She is also very skilled in the arts of seduction and sexual gratification.
