Clothing: Korra chooses to wear black Jedi robes. Her boots are over knee length. On her brown belt she has a simple blue lightsaber with a silver hilt clipped.

Combat style: Korra is a Jedi Battlemaster, she is proficient in all seven forms of lightsaber combat and often switches between them or borrows elements from others when fighting to surprise her opponent. She is most proficient with Makashi and never wastes moves. Korra dislikes when her opponents fight with multiple lightsabers or saberstaffs believing that a single blade is all a true master of lightsaber combat needs to defeat an opponent, she enjoys disarming them and leaving them to fight with only one blade. Korra doesn't like using Force powers in combat but when necessary she will do what is needed. Korra is detached during combat fully focusing on her opponent and what they are doing, even though she enjoys the thrill of a fight she manages to control her emotions not letting them cloud her judgement.

Background: Korra Arel was born on Coruscant to a family of diner owners. Her Force sensitivity was discovered in her early childhood and she was brought to the Jedi Temple to be trained as a Jedi. Korra was well liked among the younglings and never had troubles forming friendships and cooperating with others.

She was chosen by Jedi Consular, Jana Marin, a wise woman and a diplomat. Korra was supposed to become a Consular as well that was the path she has chosen. Back then she believed wars can be prevented with words and wisdom. Korra rarely reached for her lightsaber during those years, rarely getting into conflicts.

Everything changed during the Sacking of Coruscant when a Sith army attacked the Jedi Temple. Both Korra and Jana were present and fought against the attackers, the Master was then slain when a Sith attacked her from behind while she was busy duelling another opponent. Korra was shocked when her Master was killed, she froze which allowed the Sith she was battling to Force Push her into a fire as the Sith were retreating after their attack.

Korra survived but the fire left scars on her body with only her face remaining untouched. The attack changed Korra, from a peaceful Jedi and a prospecting Consular who almost never reached for her lightsaber she became a knight, training to be ready for when the Sith attack again. She abandoned the path of the Consular after the Jedi Council made a decision that surviving the attack counted as Korra passing her trials.

The Treaty of Coruscant was signed soon after the Sacking with the Empire forcing the Republic to sign the deal. Korra knowing that the peace was only temporary began training, she wanted to be ready for when the Sith attack again. She was pushing her limits while mastering different lightsaber forms and movement

Korra never took a Padawan of her own preferring to train everyone willing to practice with her at the Jedi Temple. Ten years after the Sacking of Coruscant, Korra was deemed worthy of the rank of Jedi Battlemaster, one of the youngest Jedi to be granted that honor. She continued training both Knights and Padawans in lightsaber combat, even Masters chose to practice with her.

After mastering lightsaber combat, Korra decided to study how the Sith fight, believing that to beat someone one must learn how they fight. She was rewatching the footage from the Sacking no matter how much it pained her to relive that moment as well as other recordings that showed Sith in combat. During the Cold War between the Empire and the Republic she didn't have many opportunities to fight with actual Sith.

After the Cold War ended and war began anew Korra felt ready to face the Sith again and protect the Republic from the threat the Empire is. She joined the battle on Corellia fighting the Sith who wanted to take over the important shipbuilding planet.

Personality traits: Korra is a kind person but only to those she deems deserving of it, she does not offer kindness to those she deems a threat to the Galactic peace or those who wish to hurt others, to those people she is hostile.

Korra is very friendly to the people she likes, but never gives them preferential treatment in training as she doesn't want them ill-prepared for when danger comes, in fact she goes harder on those she really cares about.

Korra despises the Sith, after the death of her Master and the sacking of Coruscant she views them as a group who has no honor and can only win battles when resorting to dirty tactics instead of honest fight. She views the Empire and the Sith as a threat to Galactic peace and tyrants.

Korra loves the thrill of battle and feels many emotions when fighting, yet she is able to contain them and focus just on her opponent and what really is happening around her without emotions impacting her judgement.

Korra believes that fighting is necessary to preserve peace sometimes. She does not believe the Empire will ever be able to coexist with the Republic and will always pose a threat to the Galaxy unless defeated for good.

Korra used to be an idealistic and hopeful Jedi before the Sacking of Coruscant, now she is pragmatic and believes that difficult choices are necessary to preserve peace and that the Jedi must be ready fight to protect what they care about.

While Korra wants to see the defeat of the Empire there are some borders she won't cross, she would never let civillians die even if it would mean winning a battle against a Sith. She doesn't want to become like the people she wants to protect the Galaxy from.

Korra believes in honorable combat, while she is not opposed to use subterfuge in war, when duelling she wants to defeat her opponent without resorting to dirty tricks proving her mastery of the lightsaber.

Korra longs for genuine connection with somebody, after losing her Master she didn't form a close bond with anybody whether it would be another Master-Student relationship or a romantic bond. Losing Master Marin hurt Korra and she was afraid of reliving it again leading to her becoming detached from others even if she didn't really want it.

Korra enjoys playing sabacc and other card games, while she sometimes bets credits she always controls not to go overboard and is not addicted to gambling, but is playing for the games themselves not the possibility of winning money
