Force Abilities:

Force Deflection - Force Deflection was a Force power used by Jedi and Sith who were without a lightsaber, or chose not to carry one. It is unknown exactly if the Jedi and Sith merely created a wall using the Force to deflect blaster bolts and Force Powers, or if they actually deflected them back with their hand.

Combustion - Combustion was the Force ability that allowed users to cause an object explode by sheer force of will. It was rarely used on a person, and the effects on inanimate objects and persons was devastating. Depending on the size, density and vulnerability of the object in question, combustion would become harder or easier to use successfully

Specialties: Hunting, Herbal Remedies.

History: Nilini was born on the planet Shili. She had a simple life as a young one, and her parents were extremely taken with her. Nilini was viewed as a bright child, as she learned how to walk at a very young age and by the time she was one she could converse in fully understandable Togruti.

As she grew her aptitude became more apparent. She loved helping out, and could often be found aiding her parents in tasks. After she learned how to hunt, Nilini took to it with a natural talent. She loved the feel of the hunt, the action, and the suspense. The unity of the whole group. Everything about it called to her and she soon became a valid and useful member of her tribe.

When she was ten a pack of akul attacked her tribe. Nilini managed to fight off and kill one of them by herself, which threw her into higher esteem. Her bright and helpful nature was such that everyone appreciated her presence. So it was that when a Jedi Master happened to visit Shili, and sensed that she was a force sensitive, it was met with disbelief and sadness. Her parents encouraged her to go with the Jedi, and Nilini after much thinking decided that she would feel strange if she didn’t take the man up on his offer. Because then she would never know what would have been, and because if she could help people, Nilini wanted to do so.

So, with no small amount of fear and grief, Nilini left Shili and her tribe behind. Before she went, her mother gifted her with an akul necklace, which she had gotten from her own mother. Keeping the precious keepsake hidden, Nilini has only recently arrived on Coruscant.
