History: Aurra was born and raised in a family with four other children on the planet of Corellia. She was the youngest among them and the only one to be force-sensitive. This left her parents keeping her in hiding for the most part from the Jedi. The Selikus family was what you would call crime lords and they owned a good portion of Corellia - three princesses, two princes, and a king and queen made up the "royal" family, along with distant relatives. They wanted a monarchy again and so they wished to rule Corellia. Until Order 66 came into play and they had to escape the planet for their daughter's sake.
At just the age of two, she began showing clear signs that she was force-sensitive. It was apparent she was strong in the force but that is not what her parents had wanted for her. Her parents discouraged the behavior of using anything to do with the force and she was reprimanded accordingly when she was found using the force. Aurra wanted to become a Jedi, it was her dream.
When not practicing what she could in private, Aurra was always found at the Selikus private line of starships. She was fascinated with flying and her eldest brother was the one who taught her how to fly at such a young age, letting her take flight in secrecy when they could. It was always a fun experience for her and she was quite good at it. Her family was also a maker of starships, not just crime lords. Although they wouldn't call themselves crime lords - rather they'd name themselves royalty even if Corellia was no longer a monarchy. They still viewed themselves as such.
It wasn't until she was nine that she found the Jedi who would teach her the ways of the force. He would teach her on Corellia and the Jedi Order would be none the wiser as it was not her duty to become another youngling under them. They would not attempt to take her under their wing. For a time, her parents were very against the idea but their youngest daughter pleaded and begged, and eventually Aurra got her way.
His name was Huin Far and he was a togruta. He stated he had sensed her from a far distance and knew he was the one to be her Master and she his Padawan. He taught her a great deal, and soon she was able to create her lightsaber. Huin was unbeknownst even to the Jedi Order for reasons unknown to Aurra for he never spoke of it.
About three years later, Jedis were sent to execution and the Selikus family realized they needed to leave Corellia right as things were safer for them to travel; as soon as that time came, they packed up what they could and left on their decently sized yacht. Huin, however, was nowhere to be found after Order 66.
They traveled to Yavin IV and placed their ship in an exceptionally remote area of the planet. It was there she was raised and practiced her lightsaber skills on her own without a Jedi to train her. It was difficult but she learned exceptionally well. Her mother scrutinized her more openly than her father did. She didn't wish for her child to be killed by the Empire. She was not aware of how the force worked but she knew they could find Aurra.
It was heard that her relatives still living on Corellia were slaughtered after word got out from one of the relatives that they were holding a force-sensitive teenager but their location remained unknown to even them. It was a heartbreaking matter - to think one of their own would betray their family.
It wasn't long after that the Empire found their whereabouts and killed off Aurra's parents and siblings in a bloody battle of blasters. Aurra managed to flee on her scout vessel, the Aurora II - built by her with some help of course. She went into hyperdrive and cried her little heart out.
It was then she found Huin again. They discovered each other through the force on the planet of Tatooine. They spent some time together honing her skills until she was found by the Inquistors, away from Huin at the time. They captured her and tried to sway her to join the Inquisitors as she was strong and could do wonders to assist them in finding those who were force-sensitive. They could tell she was strong as Darth Sidious was the one to find her through the force. Darth Vader carried out the plan to find her, however, she did not bend to their will. She always wanted to be a Jedi and she wasn't about to change her mind for the bloody Imperials who killed her family.
It was Huin Far who would then save her but end up sacrificing himself in the process. And it was at that moment she changed her name to Ra Seli as she fled into hyperdrive.
Miscellaneous: More details of her backstory will be stated in the IC.
