Background
Teressia was born into nobility on her homeworld of Pantora. As a Republic member world though, they participated in the laws and rules of the Jedi, and upon the discovery of her Force sensitivity, Teressia was taken into custody by the Jedi Order and grew up there.
Through her training there, she quickly discovered an affinity for the Soresu Lightsaber form. This form matched her personality. She strongly wants to protect and help her friends, and is very slow to anger or aggressiveness. She was soon chosen to train under Bultar Swan, a Jedi Knight whose ideals matched with own, not having killed a single opponent before the Clone Wars
Teressia's training continued into the Clone Wars where she assumed the role of Commander under her master, now General Swan. Early on in the war, she lost her second in command, a Clone Lt. named Clocks while they were alone on a mission. His initial injury wasn't fatal, but her lack of medical knowledge resulted in her being unable to help him. Resolving for that to never happen again, she took on medical training. Her command style was very defensive like her fighting style, utilizing slow moving, but impenetrable formations in battle. Like her master, she was quick to action, but never tried to kill unless necessary.
Her growth in the Clone Wars and a hard fought battle that resulted in saving her master's life and leading the entire division in her master's absence caught the eyes of the Council and resulted in her promotion to Knighthood. She assumed the rank of General like most Jedi Knights and was placed in charge of her own division, the 237th Infantry. Her kindness and refusal to place her own troops in danger quickly resulted in loyalty and respect for their new commander.
