Born into a noble Sephi family, Alaya Avasarala was raised alongside her twin brother. While her twin brother Arean sought wisdom through patience and study, Alaya Avasarala had always embraced action and instinct. Even as a young girl, she was driven by a sense of purpose—a belief that the Force guided her movements, that every decision was a moment in which she had to trust herself completely. This made her an exceptional student at Yavin IV, where she trained under Jaipur Meeruti alongside her brother.

​

Despite their differences, Arean and Alaya balanced one another perfectly. While Arean sought clarity through thought, Alaya trusted the Force to guide her in the moment. This dynamic made them inseparable, and their master often remarked that they were two halves of the same whole, bonded by the Force in a way that few Jedi siblings ever were.

​

However, when the Jedi Order moved from Yavin IV to Dac, Alaya and Arean both chose to leave, following their master instead to Ossus. While Arean sought the wisdom of the ancients, Alaya had a different reason for staying—she believed that the Jedi had become too reactionary, too focused on war. She did not reject the Order, but she believed that there was more to being a Jedi than fighting wars on behalf of the Republic.

​

On Ossus, Alaya honed her skills in intuition, precognition, and defensive combat, preferring to find solutions that prevented violence rather than caused it. She studied the ways of the Jedi Watchmen, the guardians who once maintained peace in the Outer Rim, and she began to envision herself as a Jedi who would act not as a warrior, but as a protector of the weak.

​

While Arean delved into knowledge, Alaya remained connected to the present, to the people in need. She often left Ossus on diplomatic and peacekeeping missions, always returning with new insights and experiences. She never severed her connection with the Jedi Order, but she, like Arean, believed that the path of a Jedi was not always the one dictated by the High Council.

​

In time, Alaya became known as a wandering Jedi, a protector who sought out conflicts before they could begin, a presence of peace in a galaxy always on the verge of war. She and Arean remained inseparable, walking different but parallel paths—one seeking wisdom, the other ensuring that wisdom could still have a place in the galaxy.

​

Though they chose to leave the main body of the Order, the Avasarala twins never stopped being Jedi. Their belief in the Force remained strong, their commitment to justice unwavering. They simply chose a different way to serve, a way that would keep their names spoken among Jedi scholars and wanderers alike for generations to come.
