Kelen Adwar

Kelen Adwar was a servant to Earl Matthe'i Salphoris of the Isen Star Empire. She hid her considerable Force potential, fearful of being taken from her family. Secretly, she began to study from hearsay, public record and her own observations of Salphoris and his fellow nobles. She had achieved a very simple level of competence by the time of the destruction of the Bandit Kingdoms; leaving employment with Salphoris' estate, she struck out on her own and was found on Ramzi by Colonel Siriss Cortann. Cortann took her as an unofficial student, a position she held for roughly a year. Kelen attempted to prevent Cortann's arrest and was imprisoned with her on Armitage. Along with Madlo Iktar, Kilenka, Bass and Cortann herself, Kelen escaped custody and kidnapped a young Ember Rekali. Kelen grew to like Ember. When he was rescued by the Patriots and the Tak Council, she escaped and disappeared, 'missing the boat' to join her Master and the others with Kishkumen. She waited to be contacted, but when Cortann proved to be too busy cementing her place in the Cult, Kelen left the Unknown Regions to see what trouble she could stir up - and, in part, to look for Ember. She was found instead by Ald Sorosel, who inducted her into None Whatsoever and the Dark Council.

Kelen's main tutor was a mentalist of some ability. As a result, Kelen is very good at mind tricks and reading surface thoughts. She knows Drain Knowledge, but can only use it on the weak-minded or the unconscious.
