Background:

 

Qi'Nali was born on Alpheridies in an upper-class family, with her father holding a firm position as a moderately high power psychologist and her mother acting as a local politician. Given that her parents were often busy with work and other more important priorities, it was left up to the young Holt's great uncle, a retired royal guardsman from Naboo, to supervise and care for her. It was a strictly run household between the three with little room for error in terms of etiquette, not even for a growing young girl. Naturally this lead to an inherent understanding and distaste for politics and rigidly structured institutions. Psychology on the whole was quite alright however, and while her father was really quite reluctant to allow his child anywhere near his profession, Qi'Nali spared no expense to learn on her own.

 

As Nali matured and grew her senses followed suit, leading, on occasion, to oversensitivity and headaches. This lead to a protracted battle between the two of her parents before her great uncle stepped in and involved the Sene-Luka, who were quick to take the developing girl under their metaphorical wing to nuture and advance her innate abilities. It was here that Qi'Nali really learned of the implications of her sight, and where most of her childhood and teenage years were spent. Under the guidance of numerous teachers and mentors, both her and many other students were instructed in how to see- really see, and how to sense the world around them in a way that few others could replicate.

 

The lack of traditional light-based sight did make it and the problems it presented manifest however, not long after the now-young adult left the care of the Sene-Luka to pursue her own dreams and aspirations. Traditional holoscreens and light projections just weren't visible without a proper pair of working eyes and, while there might be vast resources available to those who are blind, have been blinded, or are otherwise naturally impaired, such things tended be fairly expensive and generally inconvenient when their user wasn't using them as their primary method of sight. This presented a problem to Qi'Nali as she was neither particularly well-off financially, with her relationship to both mother and father being strained at best and her great uncle living on his dwindling pension, nor was she willing to lower her standards of living to make it work when she inevitably moved on with her life.

 

The way the issue of funding was bypassed was threefold. Firstly, Nal made herself available to help the Sene-Luka with incoming students. The pay for that was marginal, but it provided some means of providing for herself while long term options and solutions were found and maneuvered into place. Secondly, she signed herself up for clinical trials with a handful of groups testing convenience bots and other amenities for the visually 'impaired.' Finally, she threw her lot in with a pseudo-political group in opposition to her mother's faction. The clinical trials provided a method to get an in with distributors of convenience products as well as a way to make some spending money, and the pseudo-political group was an excellent way to spite her mother and father by using their own teachings against them. And it also paid particularly well, meaning she could leave to be her own Miralukan-being all the faster. Mainly it was for the schadenfreude though.

 

By the time Qi'Nali had gathered up the funds to leave to Coruscant, she was well and truly estranged from her parents. They hadn't been on fantastic terms even before she had been adopted by the Sene-Luka, but now her only familial contact was with her aging great uncle. When he passed there was little reason to stay on Alpherides so, to the relief of her parents, she didn't. Nal left the planet with a few thousand credits to her name, an aging S-5 blaster, and a few gifts from some friends she helped while partaking in the aforementioned clinical trials. Some of the things, such as a screen that fit over a standard datapad, were immensely useful. Others, like a first generation assistant droid that came paired with a set of holoprojectors that fit discretely around the eyes, were not so useful. The droid itself appeared to have some sort of startup malfunction, and without a way to read the electronic display that was mounted to the small unit Nali had no real way to fix it.

 

A few weeks in to her new life on Coruscant, and after a handful of very coincidental run-ins and meetings involving a CSF detective, a hitman, and a wheel of soft cheese, Qi'Nali was lasso'd into CSF service as an investigative assistant. A role that she hadn't really been looking for, but that she accepted given her natural talents and the admittedly sparse paycheck. Not a whole lot of the locals were keen on hiring a blind woman, turns out, even if she could still see just as well if not better than they could. Coruscant security on the other hand, was quickly made aware of just how useful someone with force sight and some measure of farsight could be. Whether it be in interrogations, stakeouts, sweeping a scene for evidence, or even trying to track down individuals.

 

The Imperial security bureau was also quite interested in just how useful these natural abilities could be, and given how Nal had yet to have been adopted into the ranks of the CSF formally, it was easy enough for them to comandeer her for their own purposes. She was made to assist with a number of smaller and less important investigations first, as a test of her capabilities, professionalism, and loyalty, before anything else. These tests were fairly simple for the most part, involving anything from subterfuge to prying secrets from people through normal conversation at a party or other social event. Naturally, for someone who could effectively see through physical obstacles and interpret the emotional state of someone based on their mere presence, not to mention her history with similar political games back 'home,' these tasks were fairly simple. The only problem areas that cropped up tended to be when a task necessitated interaction with a foreign datapad or a holoscreen, and those were quickly solved with an assistant droid that actually did work.

 

Once proven to be capable enough for their use, Qi'Nali was put through an accelerated learning course to fill in a few gaps in her knowledge and abilities before being formally accepted as an internal affairs agent for the ISB. The position wasn't so much a step up as it was a force-assisted leap up the ladder, and that little factoid made it self clear in the qualitative and quantitative increase of her assignments. Questioning suspects for the CSF and investigasting crime scenes was vastly different from the IntAf branch of the ISB. Where before she was asking questions and probing someone's feelings in a sterile room with a one way window, now she was mingling and using a mixture of psychology and her sight to guage reactions to certain keywords and phrases. Investigating a scene turned from looking for evidence and clues around a robbery or murder, to pouring through someone's personal files and posessions for evidence of disloyalty or corruption.

 

The passing of the years saw few other changes in Qi'Nali's life outside of her work, and hardly any of those were of great note. It was during this time that she began using aliases to hide her reputation when it came time for an audit or public operation, in addition to keeping herself safe from any residual enemies that might have been made in her past dealings. Her assistant droid, EY-3s, received a few upgrades to better accomodate Nal's needs; upgrades such as a pair of linked holoprojector implants which could simulate human eyes, and a chassis upgrade that allowed it to connect to a larger bipedal frame. The implants were used to effectively change Nali's appearance based on the alias she was using or the situation at hand, though they had trouble generating a pair of eyes on the fly and under duress.

 

Unfortunately, or fortunately, the passing of these years also saw Nal becomming increasingly at-odds with the way that things were handled by the ISB in general. Deciding, eventually, that continuing on would inevitably lead her down the wrong path, she submitted her conditional resignation and began planning for the future. She still believed that there was some good to be done with the ISB, but more than that she wanted control over how that good was done. The easiest way to do that, she figured, would be to act as a consultant or mercenary. She would still be doing the same things, by and large, but it would be on her time, and they would be for things she supported and in ways that she saw fit.

 

So, once her resignation was approved and her goodbyes were said, Qi'Nali rapidly spent nearly all of her remaining funds on a good ship. Given that she had quite a surplus built up from her time in the ISB, she sprung for some amount of luxury, with some slight modifications. What she ended up with was The Blind Bouncer, a Courier class yacht named for the enigmatic natives of Ruusan. It's a fairly new craft, as of yet untested in the waters of combat, but Nali has faith that it will get her through to where she needs to go.
