Name: Zuhii Cedec

Species: Miraluka

Gender: Female

Age: 27

Appearance:
Image


Background(Two paragraphs): Zuhii was born on Alpheridies. As a Miralukan, she was naturally sensitive to the force. But, her parents could sense a stronger connection in her than in most Miralukans. As part of standard practice Zuhii was screened for force-sensitivity at birth. These results made their way through the databanks of the Republic and to the Jedi Order. Six months after Zuhii's birth a representative of the Jedi Order arrived on Alpheridies. This Jedi convinced Zuhii's parents that she should be taken to be trained as a Jedi. Her parents agreed and the infant was sent to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. For years she trained as a youngling. She learned the tenets of the Force, the Jedi Code, and the basics of lightsaber combat. Zuhii's natural affinity for the Force led her to prefer it over lighsaber combat.

Zuhii eventually moved on from Youngling to Padawan. Zuhii apprenticed under Jedi Master Joeales Dewwool. Zuhii traveled far with Master Dewwool. They visited strange planets that Zuhii had only studied in the Temple archives. Under his tutelage Zuhii began to further develop her abilities in the force. It was also in this time span that Zuhii constructed her lighsaber. Dewwool took her to the planet Dantooine, where he claimed the Force was strong. Dewwool told her that Dantooine had sustained many wounds but, still life returned and flourished to the planet. Crystals from such a place would be powerful and aid Zuhii greatly in her journeys as a Jedi. For three days Zuhii meditated deep in the caves, surrounded by the soft humming and gentle glow of the crystals. When she emerged from the cave, Zuhii had a fine lightsaber. The hilt curved to more comfortably fit in her hand.

Zuhii would go on to study under Master Dewwool for several more years before being knighted. Under the recommendation of Master Dewwool, Zuhii accepted the role of Consular. With her new freedom Zuhii took to the stars in search of the deeper meanings of the force. To aid in her travels Zuhii was given use of one of the Orders' small freighters for the transportation of artifacts and any additional research assistants she may need. The Miralukan was drawn to ancient and hidden places that emanated in the Force. However, these places also drew practitioners of the dark side of the Force. Creatures and Sith twisted by hate, greed, and power. Zuhii was forced to defend herself and the treasures of the past. With the formation of the Eternal Alliance Zuhii put aside her research and joined the cause lending her field expertise and her ability in the Force.

With the dissolution of the Alliance and the renewed Sith assaults on the Jedi Order, Zuhii has been in hiding attempting to preserve as much knowledge as she can. Through a vision in the Force, Zuhii has seen the gathering at Rishi. She has traveled there to aid in the efforts of rebuilding the Order.

Lightsaber: Green, dueling lightsaber

Equipment: Lightsaber, set of robes, food and medical supplies, light freighter, a collection of Jedi and Sith holocrons.

Skills: Form II Makashi, Force Sight, Postcognition, Mind Trick, Force Speed, and Force Jump are Zuhii's most prominent abilities though she possess the basic force techniques of the Jedi.

Weakness: Force sight prevents her from seeing those that exist outside the force, Zuhii is deliberative and less effective in a crisis, weaker in lightsaber combat than in Force combat.

Name:Khylesh Treh

Species:Zabrak

Gender:Male

Age:25

Appearance:Image

Background(Two paragraphs):

Born on Iridonia when he ended the 7th month of his life a Jedi Order representative has come for him, the parents although reluctant given the child to the media order, he trained alongside other younglings, about various techniques of force and lightsaber combat. Although he never was a great force user he compensated with his fast learning of various Lightsaber combat forms, he mainly used the most dangerous form to a Jedi, Juyo, eventually his time as a Youngling came to an end and he became a padawan.

He schooled under the master Kel Yreh, Master Yreh took him to Ilum, Master Yreh guided him to a cave full of glowing crystals were Khylesh would spend next days meditating, on the 5th day a lightsaber crystal of Blue color has made his way into Khylesh hand and he started to construct his lightsaber. It turned out to be a Cross Guard one ( for reference see Kylo Ren lightsaber from New Trilogy ) after Khylesh argued out to test it to no surprise of his Master that it worked perfectly.

Khylesh studied for some more years before becoming a Jedi Knight and accepting the role of Guardian, he flew with his master protecting the people and doing normal Jedi stuff, but he noticed he was more and more disagreeing with Jedi doctrines. He had questions he was too afraid to ask, afraid, yes, he feared these questions, and out of the fear he once accidentally started to choke his own master. Khylesh ran away and answered the questions he had on his own, started to use Force Choking and stopped seeing the Dark Side as the big threat the Jedi told about, yes, it was dangerous, but at the same time it was just another source of knowledge. He traveled the Galaxy even further trying to do his best to save people although based on his own judgment and not a strict Jedi code thus he became a Grey Jedi.

His adventures eventually brought him to Rishi, he did not participate in the war nor did he wanted to do so, and is currently on Rishi because it is a safe haven for people not entirely following with laws but has heard of something that will happen there and decided to investigate

Lightsaber: Blue, Cross Guard

Equipment: Cross Guard Lightsaber, Blaster, Grey Jedi robes, Some Food

Skills:
Ability to use both the Light and the Dark side ( mainly Mind Tricks, Choking, Force Push )

Name: Wuvl Dace
Species: Mirialan
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Appearance: Wuvl
Background(Two paragraphs): Wuvl was born on Mirial, the second child of four. Around his first birthday. Wuvl started to display signs of being force sensitive and a relative contacted the Jedi. His parents were reluctant at first to give their child away but, after enough talk with the Jedi representative. His parents gave him away to the Jedi and he was sent to the Jedi Temple on Tython. There Wuvl showed that he was an introverted person that showed promise with the force. He got along with his fellow younglings and made a few friends.

When it was time for Wuvl to become a padawan, a Iktotchi named Ine Zudal chose to be his master, Under her tutelage, Wuvl learned more about being a Jedi and showed a preference towards using dual weapons. Once it was time for him to craft a lightsaber, his master took him to Ilum and was blown away at the beauty of the snow world. Wuvl meditated within the caves and felt drawn to something within. He walked for who knows long till he found something amiss in the cave. Instead of the common blue and green lightsaber crystals that Ilum was known for, he found a pair of yellow crystals. Wuvl then crafted a pair of lightsabers and the lightsabers felt natural to him.

After years of honing in on his abilities under Ine, Wuvl eventually became a Jedi Knight. While noting his equal ability with the force and lightsaber combat, he became a sentinel and was selected to be the Jedi watchmen of the Japrael system that housed Onderon. Though the assignment was solitary in nature, he was not bothered by it and take his assignment with pride. Over time as he helped Onderon, he started to grow close to the royal family and became friends with them. Then the Eternal Empire made its move during the renewed Republic-Sith war. Despite his best attempts, Wuvl could do little then to watch as the Eternal Empire washed over the system's defensives. Once the dust cleared and war with the Eternal Empire war was finished with the Eternal Empire emerging victorious. Wuvl wanted some way to strike back against the Eternal Empire and later found the Alliance. He joined them and stayed with them till Emperor Arcann and later his sister was taken down.

Now with up to this point, he agreed with how the Alliance was operating but once the Alliance became the Eternal Alliance and took over the Eternal Empire placed as a superpower, Wuvl felt betrayed. He did not join the Alliance to succeed his enemy, so he left and departed back to Onderon. As he made his way back did he realized how much the Jedi had suffered. He tried to meet with the Jedi on Ossus but, arrived too late and by that time, the Republic and the Sith Empire had renewed their war. During which he was an attack by Sith assassins while doing a routine patrol of Iziz. Wuvl survived and went into hiding and sent the war moving from place to place. Eventually, he found himself on Rishi and by luck or the force he found other Jedi. Now he is focused on keeping the Jedi with him alive and maybe find a safe place for them.

Lightsaber: Dual Bladed Yellow lightsabers
Equipment: Secure commlink,
Skills: Expert at Jar'Kai, agile, skilled martial artist, Force Illusion, Force Stasis, Core force abilities.
Weakness: Can become too protective over those he cares about, stubborn, Had an old scar on his back that pains him from time to time and if hit will cause Wuvl major pain.

Name: Stertrev Bruun
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Appearance:
Image


Background:

"Men and women of Ord Mantell! We stand on the brink of freedom. For today is the end of the Republic's puppet in the capital. The end of a regime that has killed our families and enslaved our children. At this very moment in a system far from here, the New Republic lies to the galaxy, telling them of the freedom they spread through the galaxy while supporting tyranny! But now their reign of terror shall end! TODAY! Today shall be the day where it ends! All through this planet thousands of men and women have taken up arms. All through this planet our children and families have been saved for today shall be the day where we rise up and tear down the Republic and her puppet government! ALL HAIL ORD MANTELL! ALL HAIL THE REVOLUTION!"
-Captain Ozzek of the ODFF (Ord Mantell Freedom Front)


Stertrev Bruun was born to a small family on the outskirts of Wolpert in abject poverty. Unlike his many childhood friends, he did not turn to crime to survive this brutal life, due to his father. He would instead join the government as a lowly bureaucrat. There he would discover a plot. He discovered vast coffers of the government were being stolen by the Black Sun and how deep the corruption was. He always knew that there was corruption but this... this... they practically controlled the whole government. The Republic KNEW what was happening! They KNEW! And what did they do! Nothing!

He attempted to bring what was truly happening only brought him to stand over the bodies of his family. The government was truly dead. With his life in danger, Bruun was forced to spend his 20th birthday in a cupboard as thugs searched for him in the streets. For two years he was in hiding until one day, while scavenging for food in a backstreet dumpster, a bag was forced upon his head and he was dragged into a speeder.

He felt the rough leather bag ripped off his face. He was in a dark room with a steel table in front of him. He exhaled finding his breath turning white and only then did he notice how cold it was. A single lightbulb, hung on the end of a wire, was the only light he could see. The other side of the table was cast in darkness. He attempted to stand up expecting himself to be bound to the chair only to find himself in the exact different situation. Then a female voice came across the other side of the table causing Bruun to jump backward, "We have finally found you. Took a very long time."

Bruun felt his heart go into overdrive. They had found him at last. What would they do to him? Unspeakable things for sure. The voice seemed to see the fear in Bruun's face. She chuckled for a moment before continuing. "Don't worry. We aren't the black sun." Bruun struggled to speak and it took a moment for him to open his mouth and speak. "Then who are you?"

"We are a group that is... very strongly opposed to the current government."

"You're those separatists aren't I heard on the holonet? Aren't you?"

"Separatists? That is simply that we want Mantell to leave the Republic with the current government. No, we fight for the complete and utter freedom from the Republic and the current government."

"How am I involved in this?"

"We're very interested in your discovery of the Black sun's involvement in the government and their reaction to it."

"Why?"

"Your discovery brought us the information needed in order to bring down a major local black sun crime lord."

"So you want me as a spy? As much as I wish to dispose of the current government I have a very well known bounty on my head."

"No, we don't want you as a spy."

"Then what do you want of me?" Bruun sat back in his chair, interested at what was going on here.

"Your unveiling of the curtain of deception that the Black sun has set up has made you... well known in our circles. Here is our proposition. Become a foot soldier. You may not have the skill of a commander but you have a reputation within the soldiers. I know you hate the Government and the black sun even more. Join us and we will tear all of them to the ground."

"And what if I refuse?"

"We let you go. Thought we would kill you? We don't do things here."

"I get to kill black sun scum?"

"To your heart's content."

For years he would fight for independence. He would fight in the streets with the freedom front as they slowly withered down the puppet government the Republic has installed. He would be the first into the combat. The one that ran ahead of his comrades carrying the flag of Ord Mantell ignoring the near misses and actual hits. He would the face of the freedom front. The poster of him standing on a hill of rubble waving the flag of Ord Mantell. Then the day came. When the whole planet rose up at last. But even as Bruun tore down the flag of the puppet government and raised the rightful flag of the people they were not victorious.

The Jedi tyrants and their bloated corpse of the Republic came. Even the bravery of the people could not stand against the rapists the Republic were proud to call their soldiers and the sorcerers that used trickery to win their battles. When the dust settled the Republic left not looking back leaving the people enslaved to the government. Bruun was forced into hiding once more as he was declared a war criminal by the puppet government...

How had he ended up here? Bruun thought about this while he looked through the window blinds of his hab unit. The glow strip on the ceiling flickering before bathing the room in darkness Oh, how he longed to leave this place. The smell was as if a thousand Twi'leks pissed in here and the floor was covered in half an inch of water from the burst pipe. But he couldn't. The streets were being patrolled by the Black sun's bounty hunters more often. He felt like such a coward. When all his comrades had fallen in the defense of the capital he had fled. But she told him one thing before her skin grew cold for the last time: Run.

The sound of the pipe dripping was suddenly drowned out of footsteps in the hall. Bruun barely managed to turn around to the door before it shattered into a million pieces. Splinters showered the room. Bruun swept his vibroblade off the bed, swinging it towards the figure that began to emerge from the fog. However, his blade was met with another. One that glowed brilliantly blue and thin as a toothpick yet easily met the brunt force of the vibroblade. Bruun's blade suddenly began to glow brilliantly. Sparks began to fly from the point of contact. Bruun felt the pressure grow and was forced to take a step back. The hilt the blade began to glow as well making Bruun scream in pain. Then it happened. The vibroblade burst it half and it's pieces thrown out the window and into the streets below. The explosion drove Bruun to the ground throwing up a great splash of dirty water. He looked up to see, the room now completely dark as the sun had set, the soft glow of the strange weapon. The figure was clad in robes from top to toe and where a face should be was sealed in a black hole. It spoke but in a twisted way. The voice had been thrown through a modulator making it voice emotionless and robotic. "I can sense your pain." Bruun gasped. He had one last card to play. He couldn't help the sentence leave his mouth. "Well, then sense THIS!" Quicker than most he grabbed a long tube from his utility belt and held it over his head while closing his eyes as tight as possible. But the tube was ripped from his hand and there was the sound of glass breaking before a great stinging sound could be heard.

Bruun felt himself picked up and thrown against the wall of his hab unit bruising his back. He opened his eyes expecting the assassin to be in front of him, pinning him to the wall but... there was nothing there. As if by some invisible force he was being pinned to the wall. Who was this? Certainly not the Black sun's thugs. The blue glowing blade's tip was now pointed at the throat of Bruun so close that he could feel the heat emit from it.

"If you're going to kill me then let me say this. GLORY TO-" Bruun last words were interrupted by the lack of air exiting his mouth. As if a hand was crushing his windpipe. He failed aimlessly yet it would not stop. As his vision began to darken in the corners a new figure entered the room. Same as the last one, clad in robes and no skin exposed. It seemed to speak to the figure that was somehow chocking him without touching him. The voice was too modulated but not as much as the other. This time, Bruun could clearly tell that this newcomer was female. "Got him? I'm guessing you went the rough way. Again. The figure turned around to the other and said, "What do we do? Let's just kill him. We have others."

But the female never replied yet somehow Bruun could tell they were speaking. From subtle nods to frustrated stomping that threw up dirty water. But he was still being chocked. Bruun struggled out one last gasp and the female figure jerked her hood towards the source before reaching her hand out. Bruun felt air enter his body once more as he felt himself drop to the ground. He was on all fours gasping while the two continue to speak. As Bruun felt energy enter his body once more he felt himself lifted up again he smashed against the wall. After what seemed like an eternity the two figures seemed to have come to an agreement. The female figure approached him while reaching her hand into the black hole that was her face. She drew out a black mask before placing it on the bed stand. Now all Bruun could see in the hole was white. Smiling. Teeth. Her voice came out again but was instead smooth and somehow Bruun felt a calmness overtake him, "We have a job for you and if you complete it..."

What they offered him was worth more than all the riches of the galaxy. Freedom. Freedom for his friends. Freedom for his people. Freedom for his land. Freedom for his planet. All he had to do in return was go to a certain planet called Rishi where further orders would be given.

Equipment: Blaster rifle, Vibro blade, Thermal detonators Light armor, Helmet with HUD, Survival pack.

Jedi Shadow

Name: Emida Val Vura
Species: Sephi
Gender: Female
Age: 63
Appearance:
    Standing at 6’3”, Emida’s appearance does not suggest any form of great age nor sluggishness. She instead holds the appearance of a young to middle aged woman, skin paler than the greater norm, with a crop of black hair in a long braid. A pair of pointed ears, the only evidence of her species, frame this person as something not to be taken exactly seriously. However, musculature demonstrates a lifetime of training, subjection to warfare, and discipline with clear muscle definition of the legs and arms as well as, even, a moderately chiseled middle. Darker robes or non-Jedi clothing is preferred.
Background:
    Born on Taris, Emida was rapidly found by Jedi wanderers who were on one form of charity work. Her high abilities were discovered in the initial search and, in all due honesty, the parents were glad for their little girl to get off of the metal jungle. Spires of rusted metal and Rakghouls, after all, is no place for children and as such they wished her to go and go and go, go before something bad might happen to her or the parents. Besides the Rakghouls, the plagues, the unexploded ordnance from prior conflicts had lead to a maze of death traps and ambushes that changed daily. Such a thing only added to the haste. Emida would be shipped out, shipped out to the academy, to the strange place of strange people, people who always talked of emotion and love and then said to never show it.

    The forests were lovely. The scenery was always lovely. She loved the rolling rivers and flowing hills, the endless mountains in the distance, the walks in the whole of it. As Emida grew older, emotions poured into her and all one could do was to talk walks, to calm oneself in the deep world of the forest, the world that watched and never touched. The meditations rarely worked for the young girl, for the youngling who found that breathing deep never could halt the thoughts and imaginations there. The words they spoke poured off of her like water, pooling at her feet without another considerations, and all Emida could do really was play in the puddles. As the others progressed, moved farther and farther, Emida seemed to be stuck fast, paused as she was.

    Emotion welled in her, the dam of broken expectations bursting by the worries that she wouldn’t be able to do as they did, wouldn’t be able to control herself, to build on the emotion and lock it down and away. The world seemed so very big, everyone so very scary, everything so complex and convoluted, and Emida shivered away in fear at it all. She didn’t want to fail but the world seemed to move farther and farther in, a vast army arrayed against her. She wouldn’t control, would become worried about it, and then continuously falter, her worry adding to a lack of control adding to her worry. The death spin was terrifying, a fall with no arms to catch. Too many nights she would spend trying to not cry, to control what she had, and too many nights Emida would spend crying anyways. The rest of them moved farther away, distancing themselves to a degree. What she had scared them, too.

    She fell, fell until one Master took her aside specifically. Master Duran, that was his name, and the man held a control over himself that was quite impressive. He also held an uncommon feature known as common sense. The Master saw her failings and instead decided to redirect the will that was there, starting with little games and playthings, things that lifted a young heart up and inspired them to become better and better at it. Of course these games revolved around the use of the Force and so were rather unsubtle, but the childish glint in his eyes spurred Emida on anyways. They played their games, her confidence building slowly before turning into an avalanche. It was an impressive thing all told, something that could really only bolster Emida further.

    The young girl continued her abilities, branching-out into such things as acrobatics and dance. It was a strange thing, but the unorthodox methods of Master Duran were such that he allowed it. Her patience and concentration were such that she could do such things and, in addition to this, the energy and capacity of Emida vastly surpassed many of her peers. Duran took steps, in fact, to ensure that her strength and stamina, her dexterity and speed, were not derived from the Force but from oneself. The Force is a method, not all what is and all what can be. He did not want her helpless if ever found without it. Eventually, however, the Master would begin to take the girl about on his travels and studies, moving from planet to planet. This would go, go from Ilum to the ruins of Rakata Prime. She meditated above or upon each world, feeling the energy there, tasting each little place for what it was. She listened to ancient evils, to songs eternal on Ilum, and to the whispers of the Rakata.

    As Padawan, she would grow to newer heights. Never a peacemaker, it would eventually grow to fruition what precisely Emida was. Her powers grew, yet none could feel them. Her abilities flowered, yet none could sense. She was a Force Blank, a Void where none could precisely see that was so rooted to the Dark Side that it simply couldn’t be seen. She was invisible, a ghost for Miralukans and the otherwise blind, and as such was taken aside. Her Master was replaced by nameless beings, individuals who saw in Emida a talent and opportunity that they couldn’t wait to pass up. They saw in her the potential for a Force Shadow, a blade with which the Order could use to strike out at any who dared look for Sith Holocrons and secure them for the Jedi Order instead. And so, Emida would disappear off the radar, emerging really only to give the Jedi Order another Sith Holocron. This would go on and on, on until the Sith Empire made their appearance to the galactic stage. They assaulted Coruscant, took the Republic hostage, and began their own Cold War. Many wished to take the fight out, Emida included, and so then she held another target, one Emida enjoyed greatly, one she applied herself to fully. The degree of interest held in destroying Sith targets of interest and opportunity was somewhat worrying but, at the time, Republic Intelligence and the Jedi Order could not be exactly picky about who they employed to do their dirty work. She would disappear just as before, except this time leaving a trail of bodies and bombs. A true ghost, some people thought, since she seemed to disappear just as before.

    On Balmorra, despite the Republic withdrawing due to the Cold War, Emida lurked to assassinate various Sith officials, causing havoc among some of their regions and commands. Officers, Sith representatives, archaeologists, finders and seekers and all attached by one string or another to the Sith Empire itself, they all died. They died quick deaths, a snap of the neck here, aa bomb there, and all of it calm and quiet. The Sith looked and looked for a shadow that wasn’t there and, as there was no knowledge by the Republic itself that Emida was at the location, she was never revealed by any side at all. Death followed in her wake and she bathed in it. Not only Sith were caught in her wake, however, as any Balmorran militia who cooperated with the Sith were often found summarily executed by an unknown hand. Eyes watched her.

    War found her on Hoth as she took part in the surgical destruction of Sith operations on the planet. Word had gotten out somehow and, as such, the Sith laid a trap for her there, that they had known and a group of Sith Inquisitors and soldiers laid in wait for her. She accepted the challenge and proceeded nearly as normally. When they ambushed her, it was as fast as could be; Emida, unfortunately, was faster. A snap of Force Lightning flooded about her, not merely cast from the hand but erupting about her as though simply from the ground. The soldiers screamed, their armor ovens and flesh the meat, and the Sith burnt. A dance of her hand and one was dead, a chunk of bloodied leg flying one way and a hunk of torso the other. Aided by Force Speed she rapidly overcame two more before entering into a deadly duel with the last. Blades flew with such speed that they could hardly be called blades at all, simply disks of light, and for all involved there was, truly, no emotion, only serenity in the blade, in the cut and arc and breath. There was no time for emotion as the Sith, for a brief moment, fell away from the Dark Side. Then a flash of anger overtook him and soon death, too, overtook him. Emida would leave the bodies, not burying them, not reporting them, merely leaving the bodies and going about her business. A squadron of Sith bombers stationed there in a bunker would soon thereafter go, detonated due to unknown reasons with innumerable casualties. Emida, of course, was not at all involved. Definitely not involved. She had gone to war and war, of course, followed her like a hound.

    Eventually, during that Cold War, Emida stopped coming back to the Jedi Order. There was nothing really left there for her, nothing there to begin with, and with that she stopped delivering the Sith artifacts and holocrons found, the items pulsing with the Dark Side. A whisper in her heart told her to keep them, keep them in case, keep them for study, keep them because you don’t know who is at the Temple and who can truly be trusted to guard them. Guard them yourself because you are the only one to trust, after all. There was an innate draw to the Dark Side and Emida felt it’s tug, the strings there. A collection began on her ship, a freighter that held little for armament and whose sole defense against pirates was, in case of attack, to allow a board and summarily kill everyone or nearly everyone. It worked. When the war began, when the Alliance began and the Eternal Empire came knocking, Emida took on a more combined approach. She would lead multiple strike teams on numerous occasions to engage and destroy key enemy assets and personnel, taking the war to them, and while losses were forever and always high the objects were always taken. The enemy always died, it seemed, and she lead forward with the rest of them. Other Jedi might have considered her thirst to purge the enemy to be extreme, even bordering on the Dark Side itself, yet in the time of war exceptions were always made. Just like the war against the Sith Empire, things were sacrificed to insure victory would be achieved. Moral clarity was one of those.

    Then the war ended and, with it, so too did the Jedi. A conclave was attempted on Ossus; it failed, failed because the Sith came knocking and knew how to kill while the Jedi were still attempting to rebuild peace. Emida, for her part, was merely another blade in the war, could not turn the tide against turbolasers. To her mild shame, she took what students and Knights she could and ran, ran with her freighter and ran to Rishi. Now? Now she attempts to rebuild again, though this time a newer Order.
Lightsaber:

    Shoto Lightsaber, Mephite, Green (Original)
Equipment:

    Collection of 12 Sith Holocrons, Misc Notes/Information
    Slugthrower Rifle
    Robes
    Commlink
Skills:
    Unique Form:
      Emida has adopted a unique form of lightsaber combat which effects a rapid stance, light on one’s feet and generally in movement at all times. Constant Force Speed is utilized in this, from the motion of the body to the strikes themselves, creating a whirlwind of death. In addition to this, constant use of Force Push and Force Pull allows for her to constantly impede an enemy’s movement and strikes and, if used in combination, allows for the breaking of bones themselves by unseen hands. This is especially utilized in attacking a targets favored wrist. In somes ways this resembles Form IV, Ataru, but this would be a mistake in the overall style. Ataru holds spins, somersaults,and cartwheels in high opinion and constantly uses them; Emida simply creates a space of death about her with no fluff or excess. In closing the distance she often uses short-ranged dashes or rapid sprints which, while in conjunction with Force Speed, allows for extreme deployment and closing of distance into melee range.
    Connections To Shadows:
      Emida is instinctively and naturally drawn to the Dark Side. As such, she is capable of wielding Force Lightning and is an inherent Force Blank, capable of blending into the Force and not at all being detected by those about her. The degree of control Emida has over this is impressive to state the least, especially considering the distance she’s often to in relation to Dark Siders. Effectively able to use Force Choke, this is often in a rapid jerking manner, snapping a targets neck instead of prolonging any form of engagement.
Weakness:
    Moral Weakness:
      Her close nature to the Dark Side creates great, great issues. She has fallen to the Dark Side before, slid into the state where passion and the infliction of pain was beautiful and glorious, and she has risen again on her own, without any sort of aid, driven only by her intent and interest in the preservation of the Jedi Order, the destruction and annihilation of the Sith. To call her zealous would be a mistake of high orders.
    Contact:
      Due to her predatory and sole behavior, Emida suffers in her contact with other people, beings, and even struggles with simply being around them. Forever suspicious of mere contact, being comfortable is something that simply will never come to her. Emida is used to being the shadow, the unseen face, and as such may have issues with even talking to others. Teaching is most definitely an interesting experience due to this, if even an experience that will happen period.

I have to deny this since if you are indicating based on talks in discord and in the app that the Sith know that there are Jedi on Rishi, then that not okay. The sith would just come to Rishi tried to kill our chars. Also, the Jedi were never on Ord Mantell to deal with the rebels and the Republic did not know about corruption till they found and deal with the corruption by detained members of the government and forcing them to step down from their positions. I can't get behind this character being with the party of Jedi this his current state. I suggest going with a different char then this.

It looks fine bearing some inconsistencies like how if Emida Val Vura could have not been from Taris since recolonization only started during the Cold War and Byss was discovered by Palpatine, so she could have not been there. Also no being a Force Blank, that is too rare and powerful of a power to have And no custom fighting styles. Change it and you are good

There are no limits for how many knights there, only masters and grey jedi have a limit. 3630 BBY.

I never said they were sith but I can change it to suggest that they may be grey Jedi or just Force users. As for the other points allow me some time to think about it.

Name: Uttohr
Species: Wookie
Gender: Male
Age: 264
Appearance: Image
Background(Two paragraphs): Uttohr was born on the Wookie home World of Kashyyyk. Although he has no clear memory of his parents as he grew up in the Jedi Temple at Coruscant. He was a Wookiee with great force potential and high midi-chlorian counts in his bloodstream. He remembered being taken away from the planet to the Jedi temple located at Tython. He, however, did remember the proud look apon his parent's and the other Wookiees. It was once every century or so would a force sensitive Wookie be born. It was here that he learned to contain his emotions. Emotions were bad he was taught and he followed. There were no contradicting views for him and strive he did. The aimed to become the best and he achieved relative success. He would briefly leave off-world for some time with a Jedi master named Allemar Shirbli.

When he returned to the Jedi temple he would take part in the Initiate Trials which he would pass and officially become aJ Jedi Padawan of the order. He would be apprenticed under the Jedi Master Allemar Shirbli. He had impressed Allemar Shirbli with his skills in form I of lightsaber combat and not his ability in the force. Wanting to prove himself to be better than the rest he begged his master to take him to the desert planet of Tatooine. He and his master would search for days before finding a cavern of a Krayt dragon. While it was small in size the battle was fierce and it took him many tries before his master and he finally slew the beast. He would pick up one of the Pearls and use that to craft his lightsaber. The curved hilt was made of Brylark. In his apprenticeship, he would be taught further about the ways of the Force and the use of the lightsaber in combat scenarios. Uttohr during that time learned and began to practice form IV of the seven classic lightsaber combat form. He and his master would constantly be on the travel during this time and Uttohr himself would visit Kashyyk for the first time since he was taken away as a babe by the Jedi Order. He would practice his combat forms and would duel his master and fellow Padawans almost daily. It was his fanatical devotion to the craft of perfecting the lightsaber that drove him on to become a knight. It wasn't before long that the would gain the recognition of being a skilled fighter. He would, however, continue to learn under his master until he reached the age of 20. At the age of 20, Uttohr would take the Jedi Trials. There he was overseen by the council and the battlemaster as he progressed through the trials. He would face many challenges during the trials but he would eventually pass them. After the end of the trials, he was led to Tranquility Spire where he would spend a day and night in deep meditation within the preparation room inside the Tranquility Spire. As the time came to ascend to the Hall of Knighthood, Uttohr would enter the darkened chamber and kneel before the Grand Master of the Order and have his Padawan braid severed. He was deemed a guardian of the order as the other two made no sense for him to join

During his knighthood years, he would travel around the galaxy and once again would return to the planet Kashyyyk. He would go on many quests that were given to him by the council and not once did he fail them. Often times however Uttohr would travel alone and travel mainly to the outer rim. There he would attempt to bring justice to the suffering worlds. He would land on planets and attempt to stamp out piracy whenever he could. In his, 100 years or so, Uttohr would befriend a young initiate called Kadaro Cogfla, who was a human from the planet Tatooine. There he would spend time talking with the initiate in the library and between his missions and his trips Uttohr would spend the remaining time with him. When Kadaro passed the Initiate trials Uttohr would ask the council for permission to be Kadaro's master. Kadaro would accept and together Uttohr would pass on the lessons that his own master passed to him while teaching Kadaro his own form of combat. They would travel together as master and teacher for 10 years together, and during those years they would visit many cities and planets in the outer rim. They would fight pirates, Tusken Raiders, and minor Cartels. In the10 years or so Uttohr would nominate his student to the Jedi trials, which Kadaro would pass. When Kadaro joined him in the ranks of Knighthood they would continue traveling together to the far-flung reaches of the universe. There they would face the rouge siths and other dark side users

Throughout the years Uttohr would continue to hone his skills in dueling and his force powers. He would return to the Jedi temple on Tython to get a new student. During his visit, he would choose another padawan and again he would bring him to the outer rim to hunt down pirates and others that cause suffering towards the people there. During these fights, he would engage a dark side adept that would cause an injury on his right armed that never truly healed He would return back to Tython in the year 3653 BBY only to leave the world behind as the cold war broke out. He and a few other Jedis would still continue to fight against the Sith. He would not engage the sith empire without the order's command and so he would scour the far reaches of the known galaxy to engage dark side adepts and those that didn't call themselves siths. During the galactic wars, he would lead his former padawans into fights against the sith, but like all wars, it would stop. He prayed for the end of the war as he watched many of his friends in the order be cut down and killed. During the war against the Eternal Empire he would once again lead his former students into battle, but this time he fought far more aggressively. Yet for every soldier, he killed several of his too, and by the end of the war, the order had ended. He would escape to the planet of Ossus. There he would rejoin the new Jedi conclave. There he would once again watch the order fall to the sith, and even with the Republic's support they fell.
Lightsaber: Standard-hilt brylark wood lightsaber, Krayt Dragon Pearl, blue blade
Equipment: Lightsaber, Robes, commlink, and food
Skills:
Form IV Ataru:
Uttohr being a Wookiee has several advantages over the humans and generally most of the other species that lived short lives. He had time to practice and perfect his skills and crafts. Having picked this form up since he first became a Padawan he had at least 1 century of practice in this form or more and unlike the battlemasters, he only practiced this one form.

Strength:
Without any force enhancements, he is already stronger than several other species, as he can rip off an arm during combat depending on the race of the opponent

Weakness:
Wookiee:
One of his advantages of being an alien is also one of his weaknesses. Unless talking with someone that understood Shyriiwook or Thykaram then there would be no point of talking with them. He can understand Galactic Basic but he can't speak in it.

Right Arm injury:
He has an injury on his right arm which is his dominant arm. The injury has caused him to lose some of his strength on his right arm and often times it becomes fatigued far easier than his left arm. This along with form IV being physically demanding is one of his more major weaknesses.

Pliska, Bulgaria
City of Pliska

Outside the city walls of Pliska stood a small contingent of 100 men that gathered outside the city walls of the former capital of the Bulgarian Empire. Among these were woodsmen, hunters, tenant farmers, and mixed within the ranks where the men-at-arms, archers, and bulgar riders. The latter were among the backbone of this force. These men would be soon set out for the capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople. Their commander the young Alusian would be waiting for the other levies from the other regions to arrive.

Alusian was young and untested in combat, though he had grown up being tutored by some of his grandfather's finest soldiers and was taught by his uncle Simeon who was in turn taught by the legendary Petar. However, despite being a naive adult, Alusian never expected and will never expect a large force of men to accompany him to the Byzantine Empire. Their "glorious" emperor in his mind was a man far too cautious to commit a large number of soldiers and men to an unskilled young man coupled with the fact that there was no guarantee of success. This emperor of theirs would rather lose the prestige of their nation then men.

If I was the Emperor I would commit a vast majority of our forces to this expedition, he thought bitterly to himself. While not being a minor noble or peasant the young man aspired and lusted for higher social positions than his own. He was to be the ruler of Pliska and its surrounding territories after the death of his mother, but he wouldn't be in line for the throne. The only way for him to gain a higher position in life was to achieve a major victory against the heathens or some other feat that garnered the attention of others. It was for this reason that he had begged his uncle to allow him to lead the band of men that was to set out for the Byzantine Empire.

It was noisy he noticed. There the sounds of men laughing and talking although it seemed as the groups were split for the same portion of Bulgars would be conversing in their barbaric language while the Slavs would be conversing among themselves. Among the laughter were the chants of others. There was some praying for safe passage while others were praying for glory in battle.

One of the braver levies would go up to Alusian and start to speak in Slavic.

"Me Lord, me think there is a fight among the Bulgars and your knights."

Alusian turned around and truly there was one of his own sworn knights dueling one of the Bulgar riders. Turning around with his cheeks flushed in anger he bellowed out "Aleksandar you fool, disengage your opponent now!" When his knight didn't respond, Alusian became furious. With his face red, he would charge his horse in front of his dismounted soldier before smacking him with the broadside of the sword. The block shocked the fighter as he stumbled back a few steps. "Aleksandar. DO YOU HEAR ME YOU FOOL! I TOLD YOU TO DISENGAGE!"

"Yes me lord, I-I understand," said Aleksandar before dropping to his knees and prostrating for forgiveness.

"You are lucky that I am not my uncle, for he would have whipped you or executed you for your disobedience. I, however, am not my uncle and I have far more compassion then him," responded the far less red Alusian.

This caused many of the levies gathered to feel uncomfortable. There were whispers of discontent and among the more loyal men to the Emperor traitor. There were no doubt those that criticized the Emperor among the nobles but none were brave enough to do so in public. Those that were stupid enough to do so in public were executed.

Alusian noticing the growing discontent, sent out his own guards to silence the men. He didn't want to lose his men before he had even officially fought a battle.

"I beg for my traitorous words earlier. I meant to say that our Emperor Simeon II like myself hates disobedience, and punishes those that deserve to punished accordingly. I just ask that those who serve my uncle will serve me the same way."

It was unusual for a man like him to even lead an army as it was usually the Emperor, his kavkhan who led the army during the Emperor's absence, and his ichirgu-boil the commander of the garrison of the capital that leads the armies of Bulgaria. He, however, was only a tarkhan who was equivalent to a Byzantine Strategos, but if he was successful he had a chance of being promoted to the rank of ichirgu-boil or kavkhan if one of them died, but his ambitions would have to wait until the rest of his force levied together.

October 31th, 1095
Constantinople, Byzantine Empire

The young Petar was enthralled by the beauty of the capital of the Byzantine Empire. The homeland of his mother, who had always told him about the great splendors of Constantinople. The city far outshone the Imperial capital of Preslav. The streets were packed with an ocean of people and tradesmen. Exotic goods from as far as the Cathars were sold in the markets of the city.

"Suprised at the riches of the Constantinople," asked his father as they rode past a few merchants that were selling spices. "I was too when my father, your grandfather, Petar took me here. He had wanted to marry me to a Byzantine noblewoman as had the Roman Emperor. The memories sights of the city still play through my mind every day, and one day I hope that Preslav will rival this city."

The two would continue to make small talk until they rode near the Hagia Sophia. The cathedral was like none other than the young Petar had seen. "Father, Mother had told me that this building was built by Saint Justinian and Saintess Theodora and that none other had ever reached its height. "

"That is true my son, for the Saintess Theodora and Saint Justinian were very pious people and despite what those heretics in the west might say, Constantinople is far superior to Rome. That broken city has long passed its glory days and now is filled with the poor and corrupt. Their priest despite being celibate, no doubt break that vow of being celibate every day, and now with their crusaders coming we will need to raise more men to prevent them from sacking and looting our nation."

"But father, why are we not one with the Catholics. Are we all not Christians?"

"That my son I have no answer for only the Patriarch of Constantinople and the Bishop of Rome knows why."

The father and son pair would ride in silence until reaching the Great Palace of Constantinople. There his father would send one of their servants to fetch their mother while sending in another messenger ahead of them to announce their arrival. Petar could hear the man exclaim that the Emperor of Bulgaria and his Heir had arrived.

His father would speak once they entered the courtroom of the Great Palace of Constantinople Palace "My fellow Emperor Romanos I greet thee. I am terribly sorry for my unannounced arrival for I was in a rush so I forgot to write thee a letter. I am accompanied by my wife and my son and Heir Petar." His father would point at him causing others to look at him. He squirmed at the sight of so many eyes cast apon him. "As you know my Heir is unmarried and I have come today to find a betrothal for my son. I also come bidding a message that no doubt will cause thee joy. My nephew is raising a levy to come aid you in your fight against the heathens and while may be young I trust that your generals shall help him learn and develop into a better commander and man in general." Petar would hear his father talk with the other nobles of the court before retiring for the night. That night Petar would wish for his future bride to look like his mother.
November 20th, 1095
Pest, Bulgaria


This frontier city was owned by a cousin of Simeon II. He was Michael a disgraced nobleman that had fallen out of favor of the current Emperor because of his actions during the Empire's civil war. He was once the ruler of the city Pliska but he had foolishly declared for the Emperor's bastard brother and he had paid for that foolish action. Pliska was given over to the Emperor's sister and he was forced to govern over the Empire's frontier city if you could even call it a city.

The city of Pest was more like a village with dirt roads connecting the center of the city to the castle that stood as the only source of defense. The castle was falling into ruins due to the lack of resources and money to rebuild it, but due to the Crusades being called the Emperor had allocated money from the national treasury to rebuild the forts and castles of the border.

What a mess thought the former major nobleman. A pig had almost run into him and he had almost been hit by one of the women throwing the content of either her or her husband's chamber pot. This would have never had happened if he was still in control of Pliska, but today wasn't about him grumbling about the city but rather he had to announce the levying of this region.

It was another chance for him to redeem himself as the Emperor had promised to grant him land closer to capital if he could succeed with the task that was handed to him. He was to take charge of the new army that was being formed here to prevent the People's crusade to enter the nation or at least to prevent them from looting the nation. The Emperor had feared that once the heretics of the west entered the nation that instead of fighting the heretics of the east instead they would loot, pillage, and rape. Michael himself also feared this possibility although for different reasons. He was to be executed if he failed in protecting the nation and its people. Now all he could do is to wait and see how much men would show up.


Summary:

Name:Uneti Luun
Species:Zelosian
Gender:Male
Age: 17
Appearance:

Background(Two paragraph)

Padawan Luun, the embodiment of peace through inaction. He was found sprawled in a battle field on minor midrim planet, by a Jedi by the name Ta Poi. At first he presumed that Uneti was another unfortunate young victim of the war. This changed however when he saw him stand up and follow him. Master Poi then realized the young child had managed to enter a hibernation trance without training and fool the various soldiers into thinking he was dead.

With most the order scattered and Ta Poi not trusting the supposed safety of the new temple at Ossus, he took it on himself to train the young child. The two of them traveled the galaxy and Ta Poi taught Uneti the ways of the Jedi. As the training continued it appeared that the young Zelosian took to the code well, particularly to its tenants of peace and serenity, but Ta Poi feared his young student may have been using them to cover over the trauma of the war.

Wishing to test Uneti's resolve and further strengthen his abilities in Jedi hibernation, he was sent to train in more and more extreme environments, from the frozen wastes of Hoth to the molten glass oceans of Qat Chrystac. It was here, after spending nearly a week of maintaining stasis, that Uneti found he had attuned the lava around him to his own force creating a near opaque crystal which occasionally pulsed with the deep reds of the still hot lava trapped within it.

Upon returning to master Poi and presenting the crystal, it was decided that it was time to construct his own lightsaber. Ta Poi charted a course to Ilum but their ship was ambushed by sith on the way, in the fight that ensued Ta Poi was grievously injured, and could no longer pilot the ship as such the two of them worked in tandem using the lightsabers of the slain sith and materials found aboard the vessel to create Uneti’s weapon. Something that would look less like the obviousness of a lightsaber. The result was a staff of Phrik-metal with a lightsaber built into one end.

Upon completion of the Light Pike, Master Ta Poi surcame to his wounds. Devastated Uneti set the ship to continue to its final destination at Ilum and took the sith shuttle to the nearest habitable planet. Which he proceeded to crash land into as he had never landed a ship before. He left the burning wreck, wandered to the nearest port and chose a passenger ship at random. A passenger ship bound Rishi.

I looked at what I had made and nodded this would do for now. It was a small leather bound ‘book’, although calling it that was a bit of a stretch and I'm sure my Rose, my girlfriend from before I arrived here, would be chastising me right now if she could see me. She used to bind her own drawing sketch books and was a constant critic of my shoddy leatherworking skill.

The 'book was made from materials I got from one of the shepherds in exchange for a salve for his headaches. I boiled him some ground willow bark and he was right as rain. He insisted on returning the favor and I asked for some lambs hide and bit something stiffer.

I got a hold of a nettle and some tendon and in a few weeks time I had a book along with a pointy stick and some charcoal paste. I opened the cover and debated awhile what to write. No one else has any idea how to read so I can rule out writing down any of the stories I've been telling.

I finally decided on a journal that way if I die before civilization finds me I can live on through my books then someone will by the rights and there will be a Hollywood movie or maybe even a Broadway musical. The life of Garry Spears a man lost in time. That's a title for you. I dipped my stick in the charcoal slurry and began writing.

“Entry 1 year 1 I guess.

The full force of winter has been brought to a head against the village. The river is frozen and personal food stores are being supplemented by the village store which Chief Faolagan strictly rations. Hunting has been poor and the few traders that brave the harsh weather are desperate for food themselves.

I have a feeling however that Faolagan was hoping for a bad winter. I've heard gossip of the village’s long time rivals, the mud brains, is in dire straights. And on the rare occasions he comes to listen to my tales, a pass time I have been practicing more and more as less work can be completed outside, he often asks for tales of physical might and detailed recollections battles. He seems quite enamored by them in fact.
We've had a few discussions, usually after a mug or two of mead, about making the village more defensible. We decided that when the ground thaws he'll have me mark the outside of town on the account that I know how to make a yardstick, and we'll start building walls from the bricks the Worm produces, and wood watch towers.

Sara has been visiting a lot lately. And to tell the truth she reminds me a lot of my Rose. I think that the two of them would get along royally. Only really big difference is Rose never wanted to have children of her own. Unless you counted robots. She really wanted to make an AI capable of actually conversation not just chat botting but actual honest to goodness conversation. Sara on the other hand wants kids desperately but as a midwife she promised some fertility goddess during a ritual that she would serve as a unsullied servant.

In all honesty I really didn't understand it all but I try to lend a sympathetic ear when she talks about it. We discussed my beliefs and about the cross I have set up in one corner of my hut. She looked as baffled by what I told her as I felt we she told me about her fertility goddess. And I have to admit I've been a rather lousy missionary. Perhaps I can start working the Bible into my stories. Yes there's an idea.”

As I set down the pen I heard a knock at my door the cloth was pushed aside and I saw Sara standing there.

“Good Afternoon, Two Spears. I thought I'd stop by and walk with you to the long house.” I got up stretching and smiled at her.

“Yes I think it is about time to head down there.” I pulled on my brogues and we headed off. I sang some tunes to make the trek to the large hut less sullen. Well with the exception of MacDonald of Glencoe that is a depressing song. As we approached she turned to me.

“So what do plan on telling.” I put my finger on my lips.
“That's a secret.”
“Come on at least a hint. I marched through the snow with you.”
“Ha! I knew you had ulterior motive. Ok let me see. It was a very popular story in my village before it disappeared. It's about Four siblings, a great beast, an evil witch, and a cupboard.”

Species: Wookie
Gender: Male
Age: 264
Appearance: (Image)
Background(Two paragraphs): Uttohr was born on the Wookie home World of Kashyyyk. Although he has no clear memory of his parents as he grew up in the Jedi Temple at Coruscant. He was a Wookiee with great force potential and high midi-chlorian counts in his bloodstream. He remembered being taken away from the planet to the Jedi temple located at Tython. He, however, did remember the proud look apon his parent's and the other Wookiees. It was once every century or so would a force sensitive Wookie be born. It was here that he learned to contain his emotions. Emotions were bad he was taught and he followed. There were no contradicting views for him and strive he did. The aimed to become the best and he achieved relative success. He would briefly leave off-world for some time with a Jedi master named Allemar Shirbli.

When he returned to the Jedi temple he would take part in the Initiate Trials which he would pass and officially become aJ Jedi Padawan of the order. He would be apprenticed under the Jedi Master Allemar Shirbli. He had impressed Allemar Shirbli with his skills in form I of lightsaber combat and not his ability in the force. Wanting to prove himself to be better than the rest he begged his master to take him to the desert planet of Tatooine. He and his master would search for days before finding a cavern of a Krayt dragon. While it was small in size the battle was fierce and it took him many tries before his master and he finally slew the beast. He would pick up one of the Pearls and use that to craft his lightsaber. The curved hilt was made of Brylark. In his apprenticeship, he would be taught further about the ways of the Force and the use of the lightsaber in combat scenarios. Uttohr during that time learned and began to practice form IV of the seven classic lightsaber combat form. He and his master would constantly be on the travel during this time and Uttohr himself would visit Kashyyk for the first time since he was taken away as a babe by the Jedi Order. He would practice his combat forms and would duel his master and fellow Padawans almost daily. It was his fanatical devotion to the craft of perfecting the lightsaber that drove him on to become a knight. It wasn't before long that the would gain the recognition of being a skilled fighter. He would, however, continue to learn under his master until he reached the age of 20. At the age of 20, Uttohr would take the Jedi Trials. There he was overseen by the council and the battlemaster as he progressed through the trials. He would face many challenges during the trials but he would eventually pass them. After the end of the trials, he was led to Tranquility Spire where he would spend a day and night in deep meditation within the preparation room inside the Tranquility Spire. As the time came to ascend to the Hall of Knighthood, Uttohr would enter the darkened chamber and kneel before the Grand Master of the Order and have his Padawan braid severed. He was deemed a guardian of the order as the other two made no sense for him to join

During his knighthood years, he would travel around the galaxy and once again would return to the planet Kashyyyk. He would go on many quests that were given to him by the council and not once did he fail them. Often times however Uttohr would travel alone and travel mainly to the outer rim. There he would attempt to bring justice to the suffering worlds. He would land on planets and attempt to stamp out piracy whenever he could. In his, 100 years or so, Uttohr would befriend a young initiate called Kadaro Cogfla, who was a human from the planet Tatooine. There he would spend time talking with the initiate in the library and between his missions and his trips Uttohr would spend the remaining time with him. When Kadaro passed the Initiate trials Uttohr would ask the council for permission to be Kadaro's master. Kadaro would accept and together Uttohr would pass on the lessons that his own master passed to him while teaching Kadaro his own form of combat. They would travel together as master and teacher for 10 years together, and during those years they would visit many cities and planets in the outer rim. They would fight pirates, Tusken Raiders, and minor Cartels. In the10 years or so Uttohr would nominate his student to the Jedi trials, which Kadaro would pass. When Kadaro joined him in the ranks of Knighthood they would continue traveling together to the far-flung reaches of the universe. There they would face the rouge siths and other dark side users

Throughout the years Uttohr would continue to hone his skills in dueling and his force powers. He would return to the Jedi temple on Tython to get a new student. During his visit, he would choose another padawan and again he would bring him to the outer rim to hunt down pirates and others that cause suffering towards the people there. During these fights, he would engage a dark side adept that would cause an injury on his right armed that never truly healed He would return back to Tython in the year 3653 BBY only to leave the world behind as the cold war broke out. He and a few other Jedis would still continue to fight against the Sith. He would not engage the sith empire without the order's command and so he would scour the far reaches of the known galaxy to engage dark side adepts and those that didn't call themselves siths. During the galactic wars, he would lead his former padawans into fights against the sith, but like all wars, it would stop. He prayed for the end of the war as he watched many of his friends in the order be cut down and killed. During the war against the Eternal Empire he would once again lead his former students into battle, but this time he fought far more aggressively. Yet for every soldier, he killed several of his too, and by the end of the war, the order had ended. He would escape to the planet of Ossus. There he would rejoin the new Jedi conclave. There he would once again watch the order fall to the sith, and even with the Republic's support they fell.
Lightsaber: Standard-hilt brylark wood lightsaber, Krayt Dragon Pearl, blue blade
Equipment: Lightsaber, Robes, commlink, and food
Skills:
Form IV Ataru:
Uttohr being a Wookiee has several advantages over the humans and generally most of the other species that lived short lives. He had time to practice and perfect his skills and crafts. Having picked this form up since he first became a Padawan he had at least 1 century of practice in this form or more and unlike the battlemasters, he only practiced this one form.

Strength:
Without any force enhancements, he is already stronger than several other species, as he can rip off an arm during combat depending on the race of the opponent

Weakness:
Wookiee:
One of his advantages of being an alien is also one of his weaknesses. Unless talking with someone that understood Shyriiwook or Thykaram then there would be no point of talking with them. He can understand Galactic Basic but he can't speak in it.

Right Arm injury:
He has an injury on his right arm which is his dominant arm. The injury has caused him to lose some of his strength on his right arm and often times it becomes fatigued far easier than his left arm. This along with form IV being physically demanding is one of his more major weaknesses.

Pliska, Bulgaria
City of Pliska

Outside the city walls of Pliska stood a small contingent of 100 men that gathered outside the city walls of the former capital of the Bulgarian Empire. Among these were woodsmen, hunters, tenant farmers, and mixed within the ranks where the men-at-arms, archers, and bulgar riders. The latter were among the backbone of this force. These men would be soon set out for the capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople. Their commander the young Alusian would be waiting for the other levies from the other regions to arrive.

Alusian was young and untested in combat, though he had grown up being tutored by some of his grandfather's finest soldiers and was taught by his uncle Simeon who was in turn taught by the legendary Petar. However, despite being a naive adult, Alusian never expected and will never expect a large force of men to accompany him to the Byzantine Empire. Their "glorious" emperor in his mind was a man far too cautious to commit a large number of soldiers and men to an unskilled young man coupled with the fact that there was no guarantee of success. This emperor of theirs would rather lose the prestige of their nation then men.

If I was the Emperor I would commit a vast majority of our forces to this expedition, he thought bitterly to himself. While not being a minor noble or peasant the young man aspired and lusted for higher social positions than his own. He was to be the ruler of Pliska and its surrounding territories after the death of his mother, but he wouldn't be in line for the throne. The only way for him to gain a higher position in life was to achieve a major victory against the heathens or some other feat that garnered the attention of others. It was for this reason that he had begged his uncle to allow him to lead the band of men that was to set out for the Byzantine Empire.

It was noisy he noticed. There the sounds of men laughing and talking although it seemed as the groups were split for the same portion of Bulgars would be conversing in their barbaric language while the Slavs would be conversing among themselves. Among the laughter were the chants of others. There was some praying for safe passage while others were praying for glory in battle.

One of the braver levies would go up to Alusian and start to speak in Slavic.

"Me Lord, me think there is a fight among the Bulgars and your knights."

Alusian turned around and truly there was one of his own sworn knights dueling one of the Bulgar riders. Turning around with his cheeks flushed in anger he bellowed out "Aleksandar you fool, disengage your opponent now!" When his knight didn't respond, Alusian became furious. With his face red, he would charge his horse in front of his dismounted soldier before smacking him with the broadside of the sword. The block shocked the fighter as he stumbled back a few steps. "Aleksandar. DO YOU HEAR ME YOU FOOL! I TOLD YOU TO DISENGAGE!"

"Yes me lord, I-I understand," said Aleksandar before dropping to his knees and prostrating for forgiveness.

"You are lucky that I am not my uncle, for he would have whipped you or executed you for your disobedience. I, however, am not my uncle and I have far more compassion then him," responded the far less red Alusian.

This caused many of the levies gathered to feel uncomfortable. There were whispers of discontent and among the more loyal men to the Emperor traitor. There were no doubt those that criticized the Emperor among the nobles but none were brave enough to do so in public. Those that were stupid enough to do so in public were executed.

Alusian noticing the growing discontent, sent out his own guards to silence the men. He didn't want to lose his men before he had even officially fought a battle.

"I beg for my traitorous words earlier. I meant to say that our Emperor Simeon II like myself hates disobedience, and punishes those that deserve to punished accordingly. I just ask that those who serve my uncle will serve me the same way."

It was unusual for a man like him to even lead an army as it was usually the Emperor, his kavkhan who led the army during the Emperor's absence, and his ichirgu-boil the commander of the garrison of the capital that leads the armies of Bulgaria. He, however, was only a tarkhan who was equivalent to a Byzantine Strategos, but if he was successful he had a chance of being promoted to the rank of ichirgu-boil or kavkhan if one of them died, but his ambitions would have to wait until the rest of his force levied together.

October 31th, 1095
Constantinople, Byzantine Empire

The young Petar was enthralled by the beauty of the capital of the Byzantine Empire. The homeland of his mother, who had always told him about the great splendors of Constantinople. The city far outshone the Imperial capital of Preslav. The streets were packed with an ocean of people and tradesmen. Exotic goods from as far as the Cathars were sold in the markets of the city.

"Suprised at the riches of the Constantinople," asked his father as they rode past a few merchants that were selling spices. "I was too when my father, your grandfather, Petar took me here. He had wanted to marry me to a Byzantine noblewoman as had the Roman Emperor. The memories sights of the city still play through my mind every day, and one day I hope that Preslav will rival this city."

The two would continue to make small talk until they rode near the Hagia Sophia. The cathedral was like none other than the young Petar had seen. "Father, Mother had told me that this building was built by Saint Justinian and Saintess Theodora and that none other had ever reached its height. "

"That is true my son, for the Saintess Theodora and Saint Justinian were very pious people and despite what those heretics in the west might say, Constantinople is far superior to Rome. That broken city has long passed its glory days and now is filled with the poor and corrupt. Their priest despite being celibate, no doubt break that vow of being celibate every day, and now with their crusaders coming we will need to raise more men to prevent them from sacking and looting our nation."

"But father, why are we not one with the Catholics. Are we all not Christians?"

"That my son I have no answer for only the Patriarch of Constantinople and the Bishop of Rome knows why."

The father and son pair would ride in silence until reaching the Great Palace of Constantinople. There his father would send one of their servants to fetch their mother while sending in another messenger ahead of them to announce their arrival. Petar could hear the man exclaim that the Emperor of Bulgaria and his Heir had arrived.

His father would speak once they entered the courtroom of the Great Palace of Constantinople Palace "My fellow Emperor Romanos I greet thee. I am terribly sorry for my unannounced arrival for I was in a rush so I forgot to write thee a letter. I am accompanied by my wife and my son and Heir Petar." His father would point at him causing others to look at him. He squirmed at the sight of so many eyes cast apon him. "As you know my Heir is unmarried and I have come today to find a betrothal for my son. I also come bidding a message that no doubt will cause thee joy. My nephew is raising a levy to come aid you in your fight against the heathens and while may be young I trust that your generals shall help him learn and develop into a better commander and man in general." Petar would hear his father talk with the other nobles of the court before retiring for the night. That night Petar would wish for his future bride to look like his mother.
November 20th, 1095
Pest, Bulgaria


This frontier city was owned by a cousin of Simeon II. He was Michael a disgraced nobleman that had fallen out of favor of the current Emperor because of his actions during the Empire's civil war. He was once the ruler of the city Pliska but he had foolishly declared for the Emperor's bastard brother and he had paid for that foolish action. Pliska was given over to the Emperor's sister and he was forced to govern over the Empire's frontier city if you could even call it a city.

The city of Pest was more like a village with dirt roads connecting the center of the city to the castle that stood as the only source of defense. The castle was falling into ruins due to the lack of resources and money to rebuild it, but due to the Crusades being called the Emperor had allocated money from the national treasury to rebuild the forts and castles of the border.

What a mess thought the former major nobleman. A pig had almost run into him and he had almost been hit by one of the women throwing the content of either her or her husband's chamber pot. This would have never had happened if he was still in control of Pliska, but today wasn't about him grumbling about the city but rather he had to announce the levying of this region.

It was another chance for him to redeem himself as the Emperor had promised to grant him land closer to capital if he could succeed with the task that was handed to him. He was to take charge of the new army that was being formed here to prevent the People's crusade to enter the nation or at least to prevent them from looting the nation. The Emperor had feared that once the heretics of the west entered the nation that instead of fighting the heretics of the east instead they would loot, pillage, and rape. Michael himself also feared this possibility although for different reasons. He was to be executed if he failed in protecting the nation and its people. Now all he could do is to wait and see how much men would show up.


Summary:
-The Bulgarian Empire is forming two armies. One is to go east and fight with the Romans and the other is to defend the nation's borders.
-Simeon and his family have arrived at the city of Constantinople
-Simeone declares his intentions to search for a betrothal for Petar

I have not thought about gray jedi, I am going with only two so yes.


Took awhile to check back, but expect an app when I decide if I want a rogue gunslinger for hire or a grey jedi.

Name: Valek Draav
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance:
Image

Background: Valek Draav was born on tatooine to a cantina owner. His mother passed at birth due to complications. The youngest of 4 children, Valek was loathed by his family and took the fault of every incident for what happened. As time went on, Valek would grow unusual behaviors and traits which would only encourage his families abuse. As soon as he was old enough Valek found himself working day in and out doing dishes at the cantina. What he wished for however, was to be an ace pilot. This dream would be short lived however, as despite his application to academies Valek was denied repeatedly due to a questionable mental health and odd behaviors. At the age of 11 however, the nail in the coffin was having his face pushed against a hot pipe. A permanent burn was left all over the right side of Valek's face, and a deep resentment for any and all other life was formed in an instant.

Finally, when the moment was right, Valek slaughtered his brothers and sisters in their sleep. He stole a shuttle, and left for wherever he could get away too immidiately. His father in the morning would find the carnage of his eldest children. With no experience flying, Valek barely made it off the planet, before managing to reach Ryloth. Valek crashed onto the planet surface, and began wandering aimlessly. He was lucky however, coming across two incredibly lost Sith masters. Valek jumped them, with every intention of killing them. In pity, they took him with them feeding him and giving him clothes to put on his back. Sensing no small ammount of power within, they brought Valek back to train.

Immediately Valek built himself a mask to cover his disfigurement. He was instantly turned off from his peers at training. He couldn't stand most of them, and proffered reading on his own. He rarely practiced his force skills or lightsaber combat, but he read about form and technique meticulously. After six years, it was determined that he was finally being forced to demonstrate any type of advancement in training. The sith held no place for librarians. As his challenge, Valek chose combat with another student whom he had shown respect for. When berating the others, at her intervention in their defense he had backed down every time. When his trial started, Valek came crashing into her. Slice after slice after slice came down, Valek knocking her to the floor to defend herself as he bared down striking repeatedly. Finally, the fight was called. Whatever Valek had been doing, it was determined, it was best to leave him be. Valek would not speak to his peers again, and the girl he had seemed to admire avoided him at all costs.

When Valek reached the age of maturity, he began training in private, never revealing what he had been practicing. Finally, the day came where he was to be tested again. Another combat trial against his same opponent. One of the most gifted students of the academy, she was prepared this time for the onslaught. But it never came. Whatever happened behind those closed doors was never revealed, but Valek twisted the force in a way that terrified the Sith themselves. He was to be killed, and once again Valek was on the run.

Since then, Valek has travelled the galaxy searching for lost relics of Jedi and Sith. Valek intends to further his own variant of the force, hoping to become the ultimate power the galaxy has ever seen.
Lightsaber: Two single bladed lightsabers, featuring a curved hilt and a guard that does not attach too the hilt itself at the bottom. One blade purple, one blade red.
Equipment: His 2 sabers, and a personal shuttle capable of comfortable holding 4 with additional cabins for 12 more.
Skills: Valek excels in form II lightsaber combat.
As a scholar he has deep knowledge of the sith, jedi, and the force itself from hours reading.
Weakness: Valek is obsessive over every detail, and will fly into a fit of rage should the slightest piece not fit. He is mentally unstable and compulsive falling well into the range of having a disorder. Despite this, most of his compulsions are non visible.

Name: Cotaii Ameroscu
Species: Hapan
Gender: Male
Age: 15

Appearance:
Image


Background:
Cotaii was born in the Hapes Consortium as the second and youngest child of a noble women. From his first breath of life Cotaii had been disregarded by his mother as less than desirable; his only saving grace in her eyes being that of his supposedly stunning eyes which were deemed uniquely beautiful by Hapan standards. Cotaii, like all males within the consortium, would be barred from political life and intrigue with the single exception of marriage into an influential family. This would cause him to be disregarded as useless in the eyes by his politically ambitious Mother, often neglected of her affection he would instead be raised as a future servant within the family estate. This would change once Cotaii showed signs of force sensitivity at the age of four. Initally his family was horrified with this discovery seeing the boy as tainted with the wicked sorcery called the Force used by the eternal enemies of the Consortium, the Jedi. However the force would manifest itself in the form of telepathy, much to the intrigue and delight of Cotaii's mother. Soon enough Cotaii would be accepted by his mother as a member of their family although it was clear she merely hoped to use him as a tool in her political machinations.

The Ameroscu family would gradually rise in influence and prestige among the Hapan Elite through the machinations of his mother assisted by Cotaii's newly discovered ability. Cotaii in turn would be raised not as a servant but as a member of the Hapan Elite ingrained with the ideas of perfectionism and pride of his families social position. Of course it could not last. With their rise in power so too did the Ameroscu family rise in rivalries. It was only natural that Cotaii's mother the Matriarch of the Ameroscu family would earn many enemies through her political ambitions and machinations many of whom where more than willing to eliminate her from the grand game of politics even at the cost of her entire family. Cotaii would be orphaned at the age of six just barley escaping his own death the night assassins breached his family's estate slaughtering anyone they could find and burning the estate to ashes.

Such was the way of life in Hapes, to some degree Cotaii may have understood this yet his naivety and childish instincts could not accept it. For nearly a week he would remain at the ruins of his families estate a plethora of negative emotions building within him. Eventually instinct would take over and the young boy would live among the streets as an urchin hiding in back allays always out of site so as to preserve the perfection that was Hapes still conforming to his ingrained Hapan traditions and culture. Despite his best efforts it was clear Cotaii could not sustain himself this way for much longer. Each passing day he would grow weaker. Evenings would become bouts restlessness as his inner emotions would conjure an inexplicable yet familiar sensation. Soon enough recklessness and desperation would replace reason.

During one of his ventures on the streets reliving the unneeded items of unsuspecting passersby Cotaii would come across a rather intriguing sight. A Mon Calimari. The being was bizarre beyond anything he'd ever seen a stunning contrast to the ever so familiar faces and figures of the native Hapans. Still his awe was soon replaced with instinct, yet before he could even reach for the Mon Calimari's pockets he was forcibly stopped. It was almost as if the foreigner knew his intentions, sensed his presence somehow. To his surprise the would be victim did not show any sign of anger nor did they intend to turn him over to the law. Instead they simply observed the boy with its large Amber eyes. As the two looked to each other Cotaii could feel a connection with this stranger as if they where somehow familiar and close to him though he couldn't tell how or why. More intriguing to Cotaii was his inability to hear the strangers thoughts.

Ju Sia, as Cotaii later learned her name was, would be his first interaction with the infamous fabled Jedi. She would lead him to safety and bring revelation to his telepathic abilities and the danger he posed to himself and others with his negative emotions. Ju Sia would speak of a place called Ossus where he could learn to control this ability and of the force where it emanated from. He could be with others who would care for him and share equally unique abilities like herself. Although hesitant at first Cotaii would agree to go with Ju Sia to the place called Ossus. Despite deliberation Cotaii would be accepted into the Jedi Acedemy, perhaps deemed a possible threat if not guided to control his emotions.

Life on Ossus as an initiate was difficult to adjust to. Everything was so new, peaceful and simply different. A far cry from the intricacy, perfectionism, and chaos of political games that was his home world. Still in time Cotaii would adapt and prove competent enough in learning the core concepts that made the Jedi and learning how to not only memorize but live the Jedi Code. Howver Cotaii would earn a negative reputation for Arrogance, competitiveness, and impatince. This would ultimately cause him to be at odds with many of his peers. Consequently Cotaii would be known to become reclusive often spending much of his free time within the Archives not just to better himself but to perfect his knowledge so that he would not only be worthy but surpass those who would doubt or challenge him.

Cotaii would succeed in passing his initiate trials and ascend to the rank of Padawan his performance being near flawless. Yet this did not earn him any admiration or praise as he had so hoped. It was clear his success was due not to his commitment to the light but by his emotions and personal ambitions. Had it not been for the sponsorship of an Acronan named Shlith Razelle who would take Cotaii as an apprentice, the boy may have been deemed unfit and barred from becoming a Jedi. The early the relationship between Cotaii and his new master was hardly something to be commended. Under the teachings of Master Razelle Cotaii would undergo many trials and tests many of which seemed impossible to complete or unclear in their goal ultimately leading to Cotaii's frustration. Numerous times the impatient Padawan would question his master as to the purpose of these 'pointless tests'. Each time his Master would simply reply that he would understand once he chose to see. Cotaii's impatience would be met with his Masters perseverance and soon enough Cotaii would become enlightened understanding these lessons where to quell his more negative attributes; explained by Master Razelle as a core obstacle to Cotaii's path of understanding what it means to be Jedi.

Under Master Razelle's guidance Cotaii would grow to become a proficient duelist and more understanding of purpose of the Jedi and the peace they sought to pursue not just within the galaxy but within themselves. This in turn would allow him to better connect with the Force understanding it to a greater degree than he previously could something Cotaii views as a great enlightenment in his life. Master Razelle would entertain Cotaii's curiosity of the galaxy often taking him on diplomatic and research missions with each mission becoming a lesson. In time their relationship would improve and although Cotaii would never truly be rid of his negative instincts he would learn to control them and keep at peace within himself; now listening with care and appreciation the teachings of his Master increasing his cognizance. When Master Razelle would deem his student ready he would guide Cotaii to Ilum. For six days Cotaii would meditate pondering the mysterious of the force and the energies that surrounded him while also battling his negative inner emotions. When he finally emerged his lightsaber would be formed with a green crystal with its hilt constructed to be simple yet elegant, he found it to be perfect.

Cotaii had been instructed to remain on Ossus when Master Razelle had been instructed to undergo a vital mission. When asked about it Razelle simply instructed his student to remain on Ossus and focus on his studies, promising to return when his task was complete. Everything that happened that,day the attack, the evacuation and the chaos is now all but a blur and chaos jumble of memories for Cotaii. Despite all the inconsistent images that make up his recollections that day, there is one figure who will forever be ingrained into his mind. A familiar figure, one he had not seen
since his earliest years in Hapes. Out of a foolish bout of overconfidence driven by emotions of anger Cotaii would ignite his lightsaber attempting to engage a Sith assassin one of many leading the attack on Ossus. The engagement was hardly something to be considered a proper duel, hopelessly out skilled and outclassed Cotaii could barley keep up with the masterful bladsmenship of his vastly more experienced opponent. Had it not been for the Sith's amusement in Padawans pitiful attempts at dueling Cotaii most likely would have met his end there. Yet in the Sith's enjoyment of toying with Cotaii they became oblivious prompting Master Razelle to engage them from behind. Together as master and apprentice the two were able to fend off the attacker though the engagement was just one small instance of a greater crisis. Seeking to protect his student knowing well Cotaii would be outmatched Master Razelle would instruct Cotaii to join others who where to evacuate. Although reluctant to leave his Master Cotaii would obey. That would be the last time he ever saw or heard from his master. Cotaii now finds himself on the planet of Rishi. Much like Ossus and the chaos that now envelops the galaxy the future is unclear to Cotaii.

Lightsaber: Standard, single blade, green
Equipment: Canteen, datapad, comlink, padawan robes
Skills:
Form II Makashi
Feeling the most natural of the seven forms Cotaii would dedicate his training in dueling to this form becoming proficient.

Telepathy
Being among the first manifestations of the Force within him as a young child Cotaii has undergone studies to hone and ultimately control this ability. To a degree Cotaii can very briefly see into the thoughts of another individual. However doing so will often cause great mental exertion resulting in continued connection with another lasting mere minutes.

Force Sense
Although a universal and basic force ability, in order to counteract his night blindness Cottaii has paid special effort into heightening this ability to the point it has become a second source of vision. This ability has become heightened to Cotaii allowing him to pinpoint individuals with great accuracy, however the further the individual the less accurate Cottai can sense them.

Linguist
Having spent much time within the Archives and general places of knowledge Cotaii has been able to learn to understand numerous languages, although speaking said languages is another animal.

Weakness:
Night blindess
An inherent genetic trait of all Hapan people Cotaii has extreme difficulty seeing in lowly lit areas and is practically blind in light vacant areas.

Physically weak
Cotaii has never been a physically imposing individual. This will often show in his attempts at combat where he will prioritize defense and swift attacks over damage. This has also more susceptible to blunt trauma if not prepared.

Perfectionist
Another trait seemingly inherited from his upbringing in Hapes, Cottai can be overly obsessive about things being in his eyes perfect. Although he has been taught to overcome this inner impulse it will occasionally overpower his willpower and effecting many of his actions.

He sighed a long and tired sigh, feeling the airflow leave his lungs and vent out his mouths. It was strange wasn't it? Four thoats and two mouths one positioned on either side of his protruding L shaped head... or was it T shaped as some insisted. How was his species chosen to be fitted with this shape of head anyway? Why did he and his kinsmen even have four lungs? Surly a single mouth would have been sufficient. Two just seemed... unreasonable. Then again these feats of biology did allow his kind to surpass many others whom entered this galaxy with less. Maybe he should be grateful. Then again his current situation was not exactly something he felt deserved any sort of gratitude.

“Jhuaw” a singular word left his mouths. His name. Why though? Why of all the names of names did Jhuaw seem to be appropriate? Another sigh once again the air flowing out of his mouths was quite yet audible. He reclined back in his simple chair. All this thinking was tiring, and ultimatly served no true purpose. Well other than a means to distract himself. He allowed his eyelids to close engulfing his sight in darkness, his mind taking him back. Back to a time when things where simple. When he was full of ignorance. Blissful, sweet, ignorance. Racing! Now that was something he wished he could enjoy again. Oh what fun he had when he was but a Pupa free to squirm around with no worries. Another sigh. Though this time with a hint of pleasure as the tone of air being a different pitch.

“Would you quit that?! Its so... distracting!” A sharp and voice to his left intruded on his reminiscent thoughts. One mouth, one throat. Strange yet familiar. Jhuaw slowly opened his eyes his vision flooded with the bright pale lights which illuminated the room. He sat up his train of thought now soiled by the interloper.

“Yet you've been fidgety this whole time.” Jhuaw stated plainly. “Are you so uneasy that you can not simply enjoy the moments as they go by?” He then asked.

“Enjoyment? En-joy-ment!?” the voice screeched as if the simple question had somehow been an offensive remark. The source of this unpleasant noise, as Jhuaw had deemed it, was a female Rodian named Vlarii Zalzi. An all too familiar character in Jhuaw's .

“Oh I'm sorry, Jhuaw. I didn't realize I was supposed to be enjoying being held captive as prisoner. After all I would assume being detained for smuggling would be something of a major concern to most. Then again I suppose were not all Ithorians blessed with the all mighty gift of not giving a damn and worshiping a planet . Which is by the wa-” Once again she began to formulate words to express her irritation. Once again Jhuwa closed his eyes and attempted to reminisce to better times.

Truth be told Vlarii, despite her ramblings and insistent complaining, did have a point. The two had been caught smuggling items of peculiarity within their freighter, of which their captors just so happened to take extreme interest in; resulting in even more extreme swiftness in the detainment of the two. Perhaps it was even his own fault in failing to invest in a new hyper-drive, not that he would never admit it. Still, surly this small mistake was not deserving of the wrath that was Vlarii's screeching. The Confinement of the two in the same room was more than enough.

“....not even the worst of it, had you-” Jhuaw quickly silenced Vlarri putting cuffing his hand over her mouth, putting a finger in the center of his head to try and quite the insufferable ranting. Something was wrong he didn't know what but he could just feel it.

No one had come to check in on the two for quite some time. While that could easily be passed off as simple laziness as there wasn't really anywhere for the two captives to go or do, it was the fact that Jhuaw had not heard the any footsteps on the other side of their cell door. Not even the faint sound of a voice could be heard. It had been entirely quite. Too quite.

“Gah!” Jhuaw cried allowed as a sudden sharp pain pierced through his hand. The damn Rodian had bit him. Bit him! She knew it to, biting enough to sting and pierce through the skin so as to make the Ithorian bleed though not to bad. The two interlocked eyes with each-other engaging in what could only be described as a tense eye staring contest. A sigh. Jhuaw conceded much to the amusement of Vlarri. He... they had not time for this.

“If you would be so kind as to shut up for a second...” Jhuaw started, rubbing his hand against his shirt wincing ever so slightly as he could feel the sticky fluid that was his own 'life juice' slowly sink into the cloth; “...somthing's going on out there.” he finished pointing to their cell door. This seemed to catch the attention of the Rodian,who with a simple nod of her head seemed to change her attitude drastically.

The two of them slowly approached the door Jhuaw leading. Stand mere centimeters from their cell door the two waited. Nothing. Still they waited a few moments more. Still nothing. Vlarri tilted her head now focusing her attention on Jhuaw. She was growing impatient the Ithorian saw it and silently cursed in his head.

“Well... maybe it was nothing after al-” suddenly the door retracted upward in a mere matter of seconds making a swooshing sound. The two captives exchanged curios glances, then slowly and cautiously stepped out of their cramped cell into a narrow dimly lit hallway. The very atmosphere felt off to Jhuaw. Still its not as if he was about to stay cramped up in that cell, despite how much safer it looked. Besides Vlarri would never let him act such the coward anyway. Damn Rodian.

“I don't like this...” he spoke in a hushed tone only to be met with a short jab in his back by his compatriot. The answer was clear they would keep going forward. Each step they took was met with tension as the sounds of their footsteps seemed to be the only sounds ruminating through out the whole ship. Where the hell was everyone? A ship like this, soldiers were bound to be a plenty patrolling every passage, eyes every crevasse, probably even making rounds in the maintenance shafts. Yet nothing was to be heard, nothing but the low droning of the ships passive systems. They were all alone, and Jhuaw did not like it one bit.

It was almost as if the foreigner knew his intentions, sensed his presence somehow. To his surprise the would be victim did not show any sign of anger nor did they intend to turn him over to the law. Instead they simply observed the boy with its large Amber eyes. As the two looked to each other Cotaii could feel a connection with this stranger as if they where somehow familiar and close to him though he couldn't tell how or why. More intriguing to Cotaii was his inability to hear the strangers thoughts.

Ju Sia, as Cotaii later learned her name was, would be his first interaction with the infamous fabled Jedi. She would lead him to safety and bring revelation to his telepathic abilities and the danger he posed to himself and others with his negative emotions. Ju Sia would speak of a place called Ossus where he could learn to control this ability and of the force where it emanated from. He could be with others who would care for him and share equally unique abilities like herself. Although hesitant at first Cotaii would agree to go with Ju Sia to the place called Ossus. Despite deliberation Cotaii would be accepted into the Jedi Acedemy, perhaps deemed a possible threat if not guided to control his emotions.

Life on Ossus as an initiate was difficult to adjust to. Everything was so new, peaceful and simply different. A far cry from the intricacy, perfectionism, and chaos of political games that was his home world. Still in time Cotaii would adapt and prove competent enough in learning the core concepts that made the Jedi and learning how to not only memorize but live the Jedi Code. Howver Cotaii would earn a negative reputation for Arrogance, competitiveness, and impatince. This would ultimately cause him to be at odds with many of his peers. Consequently Cotaii would be known to become reclusive often spending much of his free time within the Archives not just to better himself but to perfect his knowledge so that he would not only be worthy but surpass those who would doubt or challenge him.

Cotaii would succeed in passing his initiate trials and ascend to the rank of Padawan his performance being near flawless. Yet this did not earn him any admiration or praise as he had so hoped. It was clear his success was due not to his commitment to the light but by his emotions and personal ambitions. Had it not been for the sponsorship of an Acronan named Shlith Razelle who would take Cotaii as an apprentice, the boy may have been deemed unfit and barred from becoming a Jedi. The early the relationship between Cotaii and his new master was hardly something to be commended. Under the teachings of Master Razelle Cotaii would undergo many trials and tests many of which seemed impossible to complete or unclear in their goal ultimately leading to Cotaii's frustration. Numerous times the impatient Padawan would question his master as to the purpose of these 'pointless tests'. Each time his Master would simply reply that he would understand once he chose to see. Cotaii's impatience would be met with his Masters perseverance and soon enough Cotaii would become enlightened understanding these lessons where to quell his more negative attributes; explained by Master Razelle as a core obstacle to Cotaii's path of understanding what it means to be Jedi.

Under Master Razelle's guidance Cotaii would grow to become a proficient duelist and more understanding of purpose of the Jedi and the peace they sought to pursue not just within the galaxy but within themselves. This in turn would allow him to better connect with the Force understanding it to a greater degree than he previously could something Cotaii views as a great enlightenment in his life. Master Razelle would entertain Cotaii's curiosity of the galaxy often taking him on diplomatic and research missions with each mission becoming a lesson. In time their relationship would improve and although Cotaii would never truly be rid of his negative instincts he would learn to control them and keep at peace within himself; now listening with care and appreciation the teachings of his Master increasing his cognizance. When Master Razelle would deem his student ready he would guide Cotaii to Ilum. For six days Cotaii would meditate pondering the mysterious of the force and the energies that surrounded him while also battling his negative inner emotions. When he finally emerged his lightsaber would be formed with a green crystal with its hilt constructed to be simple yet elegant, he found it to be perfect.

Cotaii had been instructed to remain on Ossus when Master Razelle had been instructed to undergo a vital mission. When asked about it Razelle simply instructed his student to remain on Ossus and focus on his studies, promising to return when his task was complete. Everything that happened that,day the attack, the evacuation and the chaos is now all but a blur and chaos jumble of memories for Cotaii. Despite all the inconsistent images that make up his recollections that day, there is one figure who will forever be ingrained into his mind. A familiar figure, one he had not seen
since his earliest years in Hapes. Out of a foolish bout of overconfidence driven by emotions of anger Cotaii would ignite his lightsaber attempting to engage a Sith assassin one of many leading the attack on Ossus. The engagement was hardly something to be considered a proper duel, hopelessly out skilled and outclassed Cotaii could barley keep up with the masterful bladsmenship of his vastly more experienced opponent. Had it not been for the Sith's amusement in Padawans pitiful attempts at dueling Cotaii most likely would have met his end there. Yet in the Sith's enjoyment of toying with Cotaii they became oblivious prompting Master Razelle to engage them from behind. Together as master and apprentice the two were able to fend off the attacker though the engagement was just one small instance of a greater crisis. Seeking to protect his student knowing well Cotaii would be outmatched Master Razelle would instruct Cotaii to join others who where to evacuate. Although reluctant to leave his Master Cotaii would obey. That would be the last time he ever saw or heard from his master. Cotaii now finds himself on the planet of Rishi. Much like Ossus and the chaos that now envelops the galaxy the future is unclear to Cotaii.

Lightsaber: Standard, single blade, green
Equipment: Canteen, datapad, comlink, padawan robes
Skills:
Form II Makashi
Feeling the most natural of the seven forms Cotaii would dedicate his training in dueling to this form becoming proficient.

Telepathy
Being among the first manifestations of the Force within him as a young child Cotaii has undergone studies to hone and ultimately control this ability. To a degree Cotaii can very briefly see into the thoughts of another individual. However doing so will often cause great mental exertion resulting in continued connection with another lasting mere minutes.

Force Sense
Although a universal and basic force ability, in order to counteract his night blindness Cottaii has paid special effort into heightening this ability to the point it has become a second source of vision. This ability has become heightened to Cotaii allowing him to pinpoint individuals with great accuracy, however the further the individual the less accurate Cottai can sense them.

Linguist
Having spent much time within the Archives and general places of knowledge Cotaii has been able to learn to understand numerous languages, although speaking said languages is another animal.

Weakness:
Night blindess
An inherent genetic trait of all Hapan people Cotaii has extreme difficulty seeing in lowly lit areas and is practically blind in light vacant areas.

Physically weak
Cotaii has never been a physically imposing individual. This will often show in his attempts at combat where he will prioritize defense and swift attacks over damage. This has also more susceptible to blunt trauma if not prepared.

Perfectionist
Another trait seemingly inherited from his upbringing in Hapes, Cottai can be overly obsessive about things being in his eyes perfect. Although he has been taught to overcome this inner impulse it will occasionally overpower his willpower and effecting many of his actions.

He sighed a long and tired sigh, feeling the airflow leave his lungs and vent out his mouths. It was strange wasn't it? Four thoats and two mouths one positioned on either side of his protruding L shaped head... or was it T shaped as some insisted. How was his species chosen to be fitted with this shape of head anyway? Why did he and his kinsmen even have four lungs? Surly a single mouth would have been sufficient. Two just seemed... unreasonable. Then again these feats of biology did allow his kind to surpass many others whom entered this galaxy with less. Maybe he should be grateful. Then again his current situation was not exactly something he felt deserved any sort of gratitude.

“Jhuaw” a singular word left his mouths. His name. Why though? Why of all the names of names did Jhuaw seem to be appropriate? Another sigh once again the air flowing out of his mouths was quite yet audible. He reclined back in his simple chair. All this thinking was tiring, and ultimatly served no true purpose. Well other than a means to distract himself. He allowed his eyelids to close engulfing his sight in darkness, his mind taking him back. Back to a time when things where simple. When he was full of ignorance. Blissful, sweet, ignorance. Racing! Now that was something he wished he could enjoy again. Oh what fun he had when he was but a Pupa free to squirm around with no worries. Another sigh. Though this time with a hint of pleasure as the tone of air being a different pitch.

“Would you quit that?! Its so... distracting!” A sharp and voice to his left intruded on his reminiscent thoughts. One mouth, one throat. Strange yet familiar. Jhuaw slowly opened his eyes his vision flooded with the bright pale lights which illuminated the room. He sat up his train of thought now soiled by the interloper.

“Yet you've been fidgety this whole time.” Jhuaw stated plainly. “Are you so uneasy that you can not simply enjoy the moments as they go by?” He then asked.

“Enjoyment? En-joy-ment!?” the voice screeched as if the simple question had somehow been an offensive remark. The source of this unpleasant noise, as Jhuaw had deemed it, was a female Rodian named Vlarii Zalzi. An all too familiar character in Jhuaw's .

“Oh I'm sorry, Jhuaw. I didn't realize I was supposed to be enjoying being held captive as prisoner. After all I would assume being detained for smuggling would be something of a major concern to most. Then again I suppose were not all Ithorians blessed with the all mighty gift of not giving a damn and worshiping a planet . Which is by the wa-” Once again she began to formulate words to express her irritation. Once again Jhuwa closed his eyes and attempted to reminisce to better times.

Truth be told Vlarii, despite her ramblings and insistent complaining, did have a point. The two had been caught smuggling items of peculiarity within their freighter, of which their captors just so happened to take extreme interest in; resulting in even more extreme swiftness in the detainment of the two. Perhaps it was even his own fault in failing to invest in a new hyper-drive, not that he would never admit it. Still, surly this small mistake was not deserving of the wrath that was Vlarii's screeching. The Confinement of the two in the same room was more than enough.

“....not even the worst of it, had you-” Jhuaw quickly silenced Vlarri putting cuffing his hand over her mouth, putting a finger in the center of his head to try and quite the insufferable ranting. Something was wrong he didn't know what but he could just feel it.

No one had come to check in on the two for quite some time. While that could easily be passed off as simple laziness as there wasn't really anywhere for the two captives to go or do, it was the fact that Jhuaw had not heard the any footsteps on the other side of their cell door. Not even the faint sound of a voice could be heard. It had been entirely quite. Too quite.

“Gah!” Jhuaw cried allowed as a sudden sharp pain pierced through his hand. The damn Rodian had bit him. Bit him! She knew it to, biting enough to sting and pierce through the skin so as to make the Ithorian bleed though not to bad. The two interlocked eyes with each-other engaging in what could only be described as a tense eye staring contest. A sigh. Jhuaw conceded much to the amusement of Vlarri. He... they had not time for this.

“If you would be so kind as to shut up for a second...” Jhuaw started, rubbing his hand against his shirt wincing ever so slightly as he could feel the sticky fluid that was his own 'life juice' slowly sink into the cloth; “...somthing's going on out there.” he finished pointing to their cell door. This seemed to catch the attention of the Rodian,who with a simple nod of her head seemed to change her attitude drastically.

The two of them slowly approached the door Jhuaw leading. Stand mere centimeters from their cell door the two waited. Nothing. Still they waited a few moments more. Still nothing. Vlarri tilted her head now focusing her attention on Jhuaw. She was growing impatient the Ithorian saw it and silently cursed in his head.

“Well... maybe it was nothing after al-” suddenly the door retracted upward in a mere matter of seconds making a swooshing sound. The two captives exchanged curios glances, then slowly and cautiously stepped out of their cramped cell into a narrow dimly lit hallway. The very atmosphere felt off to Jhuaw. Still its not as if he was about to stay cramped up in that cell, despite how much safer it looked. Besides Vlarri would never let him act such the coward anyway. Damn Rodian.

“I don't like this...” he spoke in a hushed tone only to be met with a short jab in his back by his compatriot. The answer was clear they would keep going forward. Each step they took was met with tension as the sounds of their footsteps seemed to be the only sounds ruminating through out the whole ship. Where the hell was everyone? A ship like this, soldiers were bound to be a plenty patrolling every passage, eyes every crevasse, probably even making rounds in the maintenance shafts. Yet nothing was to be heard, nothing but the low droning of the ships passive systems. They were all alone, and Jhuaw did not like it one bit.
