- "I do tend to bring out the competitive side of people, even when it's not really a competition."
- ―Djovi Resmia
Djovi Resmia was a human Jedi Initiate on the planet Tenoo during the High Republic Era.[1]
Personality and traits
- "You're not the only one who feels like they have to be the best, you know? I feel that way all the time."
- ―Djovi Resmia, to Kai Brightstar
Djovi Resmia was human with tan skin and dark brown hair. They were extremely competitive, driven by a need to prove themself to others even in situations when cooperation was more appropriate. They appreciated a challenge and desired to improve. Resmia enjoyed training with Kai Brightstar, as they considered Brightstar to be their only strong competitor in lightsaber combat.[1] They had a fear of snakes, one which they were unwilling to confide in Brightstar, not wanting him to think they were weak. They also found spiders cute.[2]
Powers and abilities
- "Hey, we haven't learned that form yet."
"Master Zia wanted this to be a challenge, right? I like a good challenge." - ―Kai Brightstar and Djovi Resmia
Resmia was a skilled lightsaber duelist, including knowledge of lightsaber forms that had not been taught to their fellow younglings. They bested fellow trainee Kai Brightstar in a practice duel using such a form, earning his respect. Resmia also had the ability to use Force telekinesis and used it alongside Brightstar to lift a beacon stone out of a pit in the Tenoo tree forest.[1]
