Jeraddo Chapter
(Deedlit Satori Mandeville Memorial Institute)

Boba Fett
Office: President
Class of: 2410 (senior)
Species: Human (Mandalorian)
Homeworld: Concord Dawn
Age: 17
Weapon of choice: Military fighting knife, paired

A tough, tenacious fighter with an extensive arsenal of dirty tricks, Boba has been trained in the commando fighting techniques of the ancient Mandalorians since he was old enough to stand. In addition to his skill at hand-to-hand combat, he is an expert marksman and an accomplished demolitionist with considerable knowledge of military fieldcraft. He owns a full set of Mandalorian Death Watch armor, equipped with communications systems, sensors, hidden weapons, and a rocket pack providing limited flight capability. A serious-minded young man, Boba is very conscious of his responsibilities.

Sumire (Mimi) Shinguuji
Office: Acting Vice-President
Class of: 2410 (senior)
Species: Human
Homeworld: Ishiyama
Age: 17
Weapon of choice: Katana (Battle Sword Godfang)

Mimi is the daughter of Sakura Shinguuji, the hereditary Protector of the Empire of Morita, and her husband Ichiro, a naval officer and an accomplished swordsman in his own right. She is the confirmed heir of the Shinguuji family and highly trained in the family's ancient kenjutsu style, the Shinguuji Hokushin Ittōryuu. Cheerful and upbeat, Mimi hides a fierce warrior's heart within her polite, cultured exterior. Her weapon, Godfang, was forged by Corwin Ravenhair from adamantine, a nearly indestructible Asgardian metal.

B'Elanna O'Brien
Office: Vice-President
Class of: ?
Species: Half human, half Klingon
Homeworld: Qo'noS
Age: 16
Weapon of choice: Bat'leth (Klingon honor sword)

B'Elanna is the adopted daughter of Babylon 6 chief engineer Miles O'Brien - and the niece by blood of Klayvor vestai-Klavaar, the self-proclaimed Klingon Emperor. Tough-minded and stubborn, she once turned her back on the customs of her mother's people, but encounters with the likes of Professor Kraalgh, Krontep, and Klaang convinced her that the true Klingon way was worth investigating. She learned the use of the bat'leth and the daqtagh, the Klingon dueling dagger, from Krontep and Kraalgh. B'Elanna took a leave of absence from DSM in order to join the Klingon forces loyal to Chancellor Krojaar and fight in the Klingon Civil War. She is being trained as a battle engineer in the fleet of General Zargh Thalekh.

Stephen G. Dukat, Esq.
Office: Treasurer
Class of: 2412 (sophomore)
Species: Cardassian
Homeworld: Bajor
Age: 14
Weapon of choice: Tajir (Cardassian dueling blade), paired

Born on Bajor during the Cardassian domination of that world in the chaotic years following the War of Corporate Occupation, Stephen Dukat is the son of the planet's last Cardassian military governor, the late Gul Skrain Dukat. Like his father (whose memory is held in disgrace in the Cardassian Union), Stephen grew to love Bajor and consider it his home. Though he was taken back to Cardassia Prime by his mother when she abandoned Bajor and her husband at the end of the occupation, he ran away as soon as he was able and returned to Bajor. Sardonic and a bit cynical but good-hearted, young Dukat has a measure of his father's powerful charisma. His time in Cardassian schools gifted him with his race's famed intellectual discipline and a proficiency with the tajir, a traditional Cardassian dueling sword.

Sakura Byakuro
Office: Secretary
Class of: 2411 (junior)
Species: Human
Homeworld: Tomodachi
Age: 16
Weapon of choice: Ninja-to (Kurokage)

Slim, redheaded Sakura is the heir to the Byakuro Number One Shadow Society, one of Tomodachi's many ninja clans. Though she has received intensive training in the arts of silence, evasion, deception, and even assassination for all of her young life, she remains a friendly and cheerful young woman with a positive outlook. Her clan is one of Tomodachi's most honorable, having sworn generations ago to sell their swords only for purposes the clan elders consider righteous and true. Her time as a Duelist is expected to mold her into a more widely experienced leader with well-rounded skills. She is adept not only in stealth and combat, but also battlefield medicine. Her silent blade Kurokage ("Black Shadow") is 700 years old; Sakura is its 44th wielder.

Nita Daran
Class of: 2413 (freshman)
Species: Bajoran
Homeworld: Bajor
Age: 13
Weapon of choice: Tactical baton, paired

Orphaned by the Cardassian occupiers of Bajor, Daran grew up on her own in the tough part of Bajor's capital city before her academic potential was discovered by a juvenile corrections officer. An experienced street fighter, she is tough, self-reliant, and cynical. She believes that the Cardassian occupiers had a valid philosophy: that only through strength can a person, or a culture, avoid exploitation. Her fighting style is the most ruthless and brutal of all the current Jeraddo Duelists', outstripping even Boba Fett's Mandalorian techniques in its directness and potential for mayhem. She always carries a pair of collapsible tactical batons, deceptively vicious weapons in the hands of an expert, and will not hesitate to use them painfully on anyone who she perceives as a threat. She has an odd fascination with Dukat, probably because of his Cardassian heritage.

Lindsay Willows
Class of: 2412 (sophomore)
Species: Human
Homeworld: New Avalon
Age: 15
Weapon of choice: Rapier

Blonde and bubbly Lindsay is the most inquisitive of the current Jeraddo Duelists - a legacy from her mother, IPO crime scene investigator Catherine Willows. She studied fencing specifically so that she could join the Duelists' Society when she arrived at DSM, reasoning that that would be where the action is. Though not the most martially skilled resident of the Castle, she's dogged and relentless, refusing to give up until she's fairly beaten. Her instinct for investigation sometimes gets her into trouble, but her capacity for quick thinking gets her out again more often than not.

T'Par
Class of: 2413 (freshman)
Species: Vulcan
Homeworld: Vulcan
Age: 14
Weapon of choice: Lirpa (Vulcan glaive)

A faithful follower of the Way of Surak, T'Par is cool, competent, and strives at all times to be utterly dispassionate. Her logical viewpoint irritates some of her more passionate fellows, who often wonder why a Vulcan would choose to indulge in a pastime like dueling in the first place. She claims to see combat as a mental exercise, and that she seeks to understand the psyches of her non-Vulcan colleagues through what they reveal of themselves in battle. Whatever her true motivations, she is a loyal Society member and her analytical mind combined with her Vulcan strength make her a force to be reckoned with in the dueling room. In addition to dueling, T'Par enjoys, insofar as her training permits enjoyment, games of mental skill, such as memory tricks, logic puzzles, and strategy games.

Tom Palmer
Office: President emeritus
Class of: 2413 (University Division freshman)
Species: Human
Homeworld: Orron III
Age: 18
Weapon of choice: Quarterstaff

Rugged, rangy, and handsome, Tom likes to bill himself as a simple farmboy. The latter is true, but a bit of an understatement, since he comes from Orron III, the breadbasket of the Corporate Sector. The former is entirely false. His father is one of the great Renaissance men of his age, and like him, Tom knows a little bit about everything and a lot about several things. He goes bounty hunting with his best friend Boba Fett on school breaks and is the Jeraddo chapter's designated wine expert. Tom is a born diplomat who often mediates in disagreements between Duelists or between the Society and other organizations. Originally just a friend of the original DSM Duelists, he took up the study of staff fighting after the first generation graduated in 2406.
