[edit] Biography
A native of Vorzyd V, Scout wielded a sky blue lightsaber. Scout was a pretty, red-haired girl with an athletic body in the eyes of fellow Padawan Whie Malreaux, who developed a crush on her. Her original mentor, Chankar Kim, was killed during the Clone Wars. After winning a fighting competition through creative, non-Force methods, Scout was hesitantly taken as Jedi Master Jai Maruk's Padawan. Sadly, Maruk died a short while after at the hands of Asajj Ventress in Phindar Spaceport while he and Scout were on their way to Vjun with Master Yoda, Maks Leem and Malreaux, Leem's apprentice, on a secret mission to rendezvous with Count Dooku.
On their mission to Vjun, Whie and Scout were captured by Asajj Ventress. Asajj held Scout in a tight Force Grip, and tried to tempt Whie to the dark side. Ventress knew of the boy's feelings for Scout, and used it to ignite Whie's darker side by telling him to kiss her. In the end, Whie controlled his inner emotions and resisted the dark side. Soon, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker arrived to rescue Yoda and the Padawans, and Scout returned with them to Coruscant afterwards.
[edit] Powers and abilities
- "Tallisibeth, being a Jedi is about being resourceful, keeping your eyes open, and never, ever giving up. You taught me a lot about being a Jedi today."
- ―Pax Chizzik[src]
While Scout was somewhat weak in the Force, she made up for it by becoming highly skilled in lightsaber combat (although sometimes using practices that would get her killed outside a training session) and unarmed combat—not to mention a willingness to not always follow the proper rules of conduct. She also had a natural Force ability where, during sparring or fighting, she would sometimes have a flash where she knew what her opponents were going to do next before they even knew it themselves. This ability may have been related to Battle Precognition. Her habit of scoping out a situation and reading it just a little faster than everyone else had earned her her nickname.
