[Stristia]

Name: James “Joker” Windweaver
Age: Born 18 BBY (33)
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Appearance:

Height: 1.85 metres or 6’1”
Weight: 86kg or 190lbs

Rank: Apprentice

Lightsaber: Single, blue
Equipment: An E-11 blaster rifle, his old stormtrooper gear.

Personality: Always ready with a quip or a jibe, Joker earned his nickname for his sarcastic sense of humour and his ability to trivialise even the toughest of situations. Charming and charismatic, whether he walks into a room with his friends or with complete strangers, he always walks away with a smile. All of this is to hide his true insecurities, as positive as Joker might seem on the outside, he tends to be cynical and disillusioned with the world, the traumatic experiences he has been through haven’t broken him but have certainly left him worse for wear. He is intensely loyal, even to a fault, if he ever feels obligated or indebted to someone he will follow them ceaselessly until he feels his debt has been paid back three times over, one reason why he served in the Imperial Armed Forces for so long. This is also a weakness in other ways, as he is always expectant of orders, and dislikes being in a position of responsibility or leadership, he is dependant on others to provide him a sense of direction.
Likes: Discipline, snide comments, watching things explode, the sound of TIE fighters, Sabacc
Dislikes: Seriousness, not sticking to a plan, the colour orange, judgement
Goals: To put his past behind him and find a sense of purpose in the wider galaxy. Joker has always relied on his government, his family, his friends, or his employers to tell him what to do, and he wants to seek his own path.
Fears: That his past will negatively impact people’s opinion of him. Windweaver hates the sometimes prejudicial opinions people have of him based upon his days serving the Empire, especially now that the rebels have reorganised the galaxy into a new government.

Background: Born to a hyper Imperial loyalist family on Corellia, James Windweaver grew up neither in particularly rich or poor conditions. His father served in the autonomous Corellian navy, and his mother was a secretary to the local Imperial recruitment centre. Windweaver was a model child, he always listened to his parents, he succeeded in his studies, and he planned on going further on with his education, with his goal to one day be some form of administrator or government official. However, with the destruction of the Death Star, and the deaths of thousands he enlisted into the Imperial Armed Forces as soon as he could, he couldn’t stand by as this rebellion destroyed everything he had known and loved. Windweaver surpassed all requirements for Stormtrooper training with ease, he was athletic and had a natural affinity for using a blaster and explosives, and like a stereotypical Corellian, wasn’t a half bad pilot either.

Windweaver served with distinction at multiple battles throughout the Galatic Civil War, and earned his moniker “Joker” from his squadmates because of his penchant for making jokes during combat. He served as a demolitions expert as well, his destructive tendencies found new ways to be expressed the more thermal detonators he had his hands on. Eventually achieving the rank of Sergeant Major, he was known for his very relaxed leadership style. While he expected complete discipline from the men he ordered, he was never a micro manager and left many to their own devices. It was during these campaigns that he began to see a darker side of the Empire that he had not seen before. It’s oppression of aliens and civilians just to strike back at rebels disturbed him, but he could not leave now, whether it be because he had nowhere else to go, or because he felt a sense of duty to his men. Battle cries of “For the Emperor!” were replaced with relative silence and he longed to be freed from his duty. It was while he was stationed on Endor at the very end of the war that he participated in the final battle and tried to hold rebels away from the all important shield bunker that his fortunes changed. The Second Death Star was destroyed, and after linking up with Imperial reinforcements, Joker broke away and returned to Corellia along with a few of his fellow troopers.

James had always been very frugal with his money, and continued to be the same way when he returned, sharing an apartment with his fellow ex-Imperials. He tried to maintain contact with his old friends over the course of the next year while he served in the Corellian Security Sector, but one day they went silent. News of the desicive Alliance victory at Jakku reached him slowly, and he found out that all of his old squadron had been killed after the destruction of the Star Destroyer they were on. In a spiral of guilt, happiness, and anger for having survived where his friends had died, he went to visit Jakku in order to see the destruction for himself. He remained his regular old self on the outside, but the sense of loss would never leave him. Bouncing around for the next few years from system to system, serving as a mercenary or bodyguard, wherever the winds of fortune took him, he amassed a small fortune while quietly supporting the New Republic’s demilitarisation. He had grown weary of war and yet had no alternative to support himself, a living paradox.

During his travels, he found himself working for a less than scrupulous Hutt, seeking treasures rumoured to have belonged to a long gone group of laser sword masters known as the Jedi. After the group of mercenaries found it, they stumbled upon a mysterious man who asked them kindly to simply forget that they had ever come here and return to where they had come from. While this almost mystical power worked on some of the men, many instead opened fire. Joker had almost been entranced by an inexplicable feeling he felt when he saw this man and instead of firing at him attempted to protect him, though he needed little of that. The Jedi Master, Luke Skywalker dispatched the group nonlethally in seconds, and seeing Joker invited him to help him transport the relics. Compelled by some ethereal force, Windweaver followed.





Skills:
- Athletic, although no longer in his youth, Joker is in top physical condition and is naturally strong.
- Experienced solider and pilot due to his years as a stormtrooper, Windweaver knows how to —handle all sorts of blasters, spacecraft, and explosives.
- Charismatic, Joker is quick to make friends and plays a mean game of Sabacc.

Weaknesses:
- Not particularly well rounded. Having spent almost his entire life specialised in a single field, Joker isn’t very good at doing much else beyond fighting, and is often his go to solution if he can’t convince someone otherwise.
- Loyal to a fault. Joker is very hesitant to give up on loyalties even if they are clearly for less than moral people. Even now he is still nostalgic for the Empire, even though he supports the New Republic.
- Overally emotional. Joker is prone to bouts of anger just as much as he is prone to celebrating the most mundane of things. His years in the military service have left him jaded and cynical and he isn’t particularly optimistic about the future.

I'd prefer your character picture in the application (in case you ever change your flag). Bio is good, not necessarily fond of Skywalker being used towards the end, but it's vague enough to be fine. ACCEPTED.

Oh, Good A'ro's with the Imperial Cadet... Yay! I'm sure they'll be best friends and nothing will go wrong and they'll have a perfect relationship!

In all seriousness though good job pairing the Imperial Cadet from the military family and the Criminal whose whole family is rebel scum. That should be a fun dynamic to play out. Especially around their (at least to my reading) hyper orthodox master.

[Arengin Union]

Name: Alon Windtine
Age: 35
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Appearance:

Height: 6'2 ft
Weight: 200 lbs
Scars on his face and chest.

Rank: Knight

Lightsaber: Custom green twin lightsabers, Niman style.
Ship: Kom'rk-class fighter/transport The Spirit of Vitae
Equipment: Small survival pack, binoculars, rebreather, custom New Jedi Order armor.

Personality: Alon is a man of few words, he prefers to voice his feelings of a situation through action rather than words, but when addressed with a question or situation where actions or a simple nod of shook of the head is not enough or not an option at all he will speak his mind. He tries his best to keep a balance within him with the Force, embodying a calmer demeanor than his earlier years as Skywalker's student and in the Rebellion. He's of become more understanding and humble towards new apprentices and tries to not butt heads with any of the Knight and has immense respect for Master Skywalker, however he still yields that struggle within him between eh light and the dark, at time confusing one with the other. He asks himself why should either the dark and the light exist, why can't there just be true balance, he doesn't fully understand.
Likes: Meditation, reading, rain (it reminds him of home)
Dislikes: Any intoxicating drinks, unnecessary talking, arrogance.
Fears: For the Empire to return and the New Jedi Order to fall apart.

Background: Born in Coruscant at the very beginning of the Empire, Alon’s parents were firm opposers of Palpatine’s new order and a such they were some of the first to be persecuted by the new regime. Eventually the family fled to the outer rim world of Akiva, expecting the Empire to have a very null presence in the planet, and in fact it did. The Satrapy of Myrra imposed the rules of the Empire and a small garrison was present on the planet, this gave Alon’s parents chance to fight back against the Palpatine’s Empire. For the first half of his life Alon lived tranquil, his parents acted as merchants and he went to school along with his sister Oblina. Life under the Empire was very lenient for them, for Alon it was simply how it had always been.

This changed when the Empire began to crack down on the planet as the Rebellion increased. Alon grew into his early adult years and was told by his father and his mother the truth about the Empire. How it was an oppressive regime that killed and imprisoned anyone that spoke against it, and how it had nearly destroyed the Jedi, Defenders of Peace who had fought for the Republic in the name of justice, freedom, and peace. Alon was confused about it all, this didn’t seem to make much sense to him, made worse by his parents revealing to him and Oblina that they were rebel spies. As the Empire’s presence on the planet increased and the Myrra government began to crack down on rebel cells, Alon and his sister were told to flee to the small isolated settlement of Markav inside the jungles of Akiva in order to avoid the incoming fighting. With tears in their eyes Alon and Oblina reluctantly fleed and spent several years in the settlement. Alon learned how to hunt with great ability as a means to make a living, and Oblina tended to their home in Markav. In 0 BBY Alon and Oblina began to find more and more people fleeing from the cities into the jungle, the rebel cells in the planet were being wiped out and Brentin Lore Wexley had been captured, his wife taking lead of the remaining rebels in the planet and ordering them to flee into the jungles to form a base. Alon and Oblina asked for their parents whereabouts, they had both been captured and were the first to be publicly executed. Alon and Oblina were devastated, but not everything was lost, shortly after Norra Wexley offered both Alon and Oblina a spot in the rebellion, both siblings were hesitant as they didn’t want to suffer their parent’s fate but Alon wanted revenge on the Empire for what they had done. Leaving Oblina with Wexley and the Akiva rebels, Alon left with Wexley and other rebel troopers and recruits to Yavin 4, he had officially joined the Rebellion.

Alon trained to become a rebel trooper, but as soon as he had joined the fight there was crisis within the Rebellion, with the Death Star having been revealed there was much uncertainty in everyone. Alon for his part could feel something, something that made him not really worried about the Death Star at all, in fact for some reason he knew its existence was all but over, he was kind of sure someone among the rebels would put an end to such weapon. Alon’s suspicions came true when a rebel pilot known as Luke Skywalker destroyed the Death Star and gave the Rebellion an immense victory. Alon didn’t know what to make of his premonition, but he didn’t let it dwell. He fought in several battles for the Rebellion, Hoth included, being able to narrowly escape in an evac vessel as the imperials raided the base. Along became a skilled trooper and fighter pilot during his time in the Rebel Alliance and later the New Republic, acquiring fighting skills in piloting and ground combat, although he had always felt a strong connection with something else, something that fueled him during battle, it was hard to explain but he could feel it. Alon meet THE Luke Skywalker shortly before the battle of Endor, and during the conversation it seemed like Luke could see something in Alon, though both didn’t think much of it. With the destruction of the Death Star and the death of the Emperor, Along felt that he had avenged his parents and felt such anger towards the Empire and Palpatine that it seemed to fill him up with energy and a wish to fight even more, it was strange.

After taking part of the Battle of Endor, Alon later took part of the Rebellion on Akiva, his home planet. Alon took part of the space battle as the imperial summit was interrupted and the imperials began to flee. The battle was won and Along quickly went down to the planet to celebrate its liberation and joining of the New Republic while also looking for Oblina. Tragedy struck when he found her dead, one of the casualties from the ground battle, he had left her in that planet, all to fight and look for some self fulfilling vengeance, now the only family he had left was dead, not even able to find her body among the rubble of battle Alon simply filled a grave with nothing and marked it as her’s. Alon went through deep anger due to Oblina’s death, blaming himself as well as the New Republic and the Empire alike. A year later, after the battle of Jakku, Alon formerly left his uniform and helmet and left the New Republic’s army, disheartened with how only he had remained to see the New Republic rise.

He began on the path of drinking and wanting to fight anyone that would look at him slightly wrong, this changed when one man approached him, Luke Skywalker. Finding Alon hidden away in an empty alley in Coruscant, Luke extended his hand to him, “You can remain here to drink yourself to death, or become of something greater.” He said. Alon threw down the drink and went with Skywalker. Alon became one of the first Jedi Knights of the New Jedi Order and through hardship and trial he was knighted by Skywalker and became one of the first Jedi of this next generation. Since then, Alon has fought alongside fellow Jedi knights, and Master Skywalker as well, growing beyond his hurt and violent past for the most part and wishing to find balance within himself first. Since 13 ABY Alon was one of the many who went through the Galaxy in search for new apprentices for the New Jedi Order, one of such apprentices Alon found was Jale Garekk, Alon has hope in the kid as well as the many other new apprentices and hopes that they can help bring back what the Jedi once were.




Skills:

• A proficient user of the Niman style, Alon has developed a deep understanding of this fighting style while studying the older forms it combines in order to be able to counter users of such styles. He can either be aggressive or defensive if need be, but for the most part he prefers the use of the latter which usually succeeds in tiring down the opponent and allowing Alon to dispatch him, he usually seeks to disarm and not to kill.
• Alon makes use of force whirlwind ability with great effect, he sees it as an important alternative to use in order to incapacitate enemies or stun opponents. He actively trains to improve its power while also keeping it in control.
• He exercises mediation constantly, though he seeks to find a balance his constant meditation sessions alongside lightsaber training of the Niman form allows him to better concentrate during fights even with several opponents.
• He’s of a noble mind that tries his best to defend the weak and preserve peace, believing deeply that the New Jedi Order can surpass its predecessor.

Weaknesses:

• Doubt within, despite he’s quest to find a balance within, Alon constantly doubts himself and becomes fearful of falling to the dark side which only helps unbalance him and hinder his ability to fight efficiently.
• He hides a lot of pain from the death of his sister, which he still blames himself to this very day and has become a touchy subject as it hinders his ability to balance the force affinity within.
• He feels the need to confront any situation where innocents or the weak are being abused or mistreated, this can blind him from current objective and looking at a bigger picture.

The amount of Chemistry I have with my Master currently is that we both have Wind in our last name. I think that’s gotta be a HUGE relationship boost. You can only be friends with people if they have a similar last name clearly.

That’s a solid choice, although the most I know about the Echani comes from the KOTOR games. Are there any other SW materials that have them involved in greater depth? They don’t even really appear beyond item descriptions in those games.

-Has thin scar along the left side of his face

Rank: Apprentice

Lightsaber: Yellow Crossguard Lightsaber (Hilt is large enough to hold with both hands, but at the same time is small enough to be able to easily use it with one hand) (the lightsaber is coloured with a dull black colour, and has several small knobs on it, as well as a few exposed wires) (it also has a modification where it can change the size of the lightsaber blade, for example, the lightsaber can become smaller, shorter and thinner for more quick pace needs, and can become more potent, larger and powerful for more heavy combat situations, however, the latter mode makes it more unstable) (Please note: Any seemingly dirty material found in this paragraph was not intended)

Personality: Drasten often has a very cordial and witty personality, always enjoying a good talk and laugh, as well as usually attempting to be outgoing and lively.

Fears:
-Turning into his Uncle (though that won't stop him from exploring that side of the spectrum)
-Losing control of his Darker Side
-Losing those he cares for

Background: Kellic was born Drasten Karnus in 10 BBY, the single child of Silla and Venn Karnus. Venn Karnus himself was a veteran of the Clone Wars and a respected soldier in the Imperial Army, though not necessarily the most well known. Considered an expert during the war and after the war, Venn was an officer in the Republic Military Engineering Corp and helped build structures and design weapons that helped the Republic, though his passion wasn't only restricted to engineering, it also included subjects from electronics to programming. After the war, Venn would continue serving, this time serving in the Imperial Military Engineering Corp, continuing to design new devices (not all necessarily military usage) and fighting in different conflicts, becoming decorated throughout that period and by 10 BBY had been promoted to Major, age 44.

When he became of age, Venn started teaching Drasten everything that he knew, Drasten being a quick learner soaked up all the knowledge like a sponge, and soon developing a love for machinery like his father. However, at age 12, Drasten suddenly showed signs of something that most Imperials dreaded: Force Sensitivity. Venn was able to use his contacts with fellow veterans as well as favours with other high ranking officials to keep his son's sensitivity secret and deeply under wraps, often attempting to dissuade Drasten from using the Force (of course, that didn't stop Drasten from secretly practising and secretly researching about the Force). However, one other person did know Drasten's special case: Venecis Karnus, Imperial Inquisitor (though publically only known as the 13th Brother) and brother of Venn Kellic. Venecis had found out after visiting Venn's private home, and entering without consent, stumbled upon Drasten lifting a book off a table with the Force. Venn was able to enter the scene before anything could happen and talked with Venecis.

Venecis promised not to tell Imperial Authorities, since simply killing Venn and taking the child wouldn't work (as he wanted Drasten for himself and not for the Inqusitorious), but over the span of several years would constantly try to convince Venn to hand Drasten over to him, Venn always refusing. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Venn would be promoted to Colonel because of the loss of High Ranking Officers from the aftermath of the battle, requiring Venn to spend more time on the front lines. In 5 ABY, Venn would be Killed in Action during the Battle of Jakku, leaving Drasten and his mother to take care of the family business and fend off political and military rivals. After the death of his father, Drasten would fall into depression, however, he would recover a few years later. Disaster further struck for Drasten in 7 ABY, when Venecis, now having gone rogue, came back, killed Drasten's mother in front of him, and then abducted Drasten.

Venecis dreamed of turning Drasten into his apprentice, and with him would start recreating a New Empire for himself (Venecis at this point was, to be blunt, insane, too much dabbling in the dark side I suppose). When he captured Drasten he started teaching/forcing on him the ways of the Dark Side (well, what he knew anyway), using brutal and inhumane techniques to try and turn him, attempting to basically turn him into his own personal weapon. Drasten stood strong, however, and so the constant torture lasted for an unspecified amount of time. Eventually, Venecis switched tactics, using his own limited knowledge in the mind arts, Venecis raped Drasten's mind, ravaging his sanity, leaving Drasten mentally scarred for life. This time, Drasten, knowing that there was no resisting this, acted like he had been broken (he very much was on the brink already, so he might as well already have been).

After this, Venecis finally started training him in the ways of mainly lightsaber combat and limited Force knowledge. Drasten, once again, was faced with inhumane and brutal techniques of training. During one training session, Venecis sliced off Drasten's left arm, a lesson to "teach" Drasten what would happen in the face of failure. Drasten himself had to manually heal himself and later built his very own robotic arm with spare parts. He then had to install it manually. While conscious. Without any sedatives. In 9-10 ABY, after two years of brutal training, Veneics thought that Drasten was sufficiently broken and trained, and planned to finally deploy him, however, throughout these years Drasten had planned to kill Venecis. One day, while Venecis was not around, Drasten broke out of the barren room he was usually locked in and, using a deadly poison he had secretly stolen from Venecis several months before, poisoned his bath, which Drasten had known Venecis would always use just after returning from any type of trip.

After Venecis had returned and finished his bath, he summoned Drasten and was about to tell him of his decision before he suddenly felt very weak, his connection to the Force seemingly being disrupted, and a searing pain in his stomach. Venecis, quickly realising what was occurring, attempted to pull out his lightsaber, however, Drasten quickly stepped forwards, knocking the lightsaber aside and grabbing Venecis's neck with both hands. Drasten, with surprising strength for a malnourished and weakened teen, lifted Venecis up choking him, glaring at him with his eyes now flashing yellow. Venecis struggled, futilely attempting to get out of Drasten's grip, but was too weak, and soon his life was ended with a crack, his neck broken by the amount of pressure put onto it. Drasten's eyes flashed yellow a final time before they returned to his bright emerald eyes, widening as he dropped Venecis's now dead body in surprise, the carcass hitting the hard metal floor with a thud.

For a while Drasten had simply stood there, shocked that it had happened so fast and that after years that he was finally free. That day he had also tasted his first really pure "coming from the inside" darkside, and he found it.....bitter to say the least. Shortly after the pause, Drasten had gone to work, taking many of his former master's belongings, including a slightly damaged yellow lightsaber crystal that Venecis had bragged he'd taken from the body of a dead Jedi he had killed. Shortly afterwards, he left the compound where he had been kept and fled into space using Venecis's TIE Fighter. When he finally arrived on a planet with civilisation, he thought about what he was going to do next. Drasten at first wanted to become an engineer, however, he didn't exactly have the proper papers and identification to be applicable, and he doubted anyone would believe that he was the presumed dead son of the Kellic family, which at this point had also been dissolved, all of its ownings being taken by the Imperial Remnant.

Eventually, Drasten decided that he'd become a bounty hunter, as his combat training could be used for at least some purpose, plus he could use the extra credits. Drasten would join the Bounty Hunter's Guild (or New Bounty Hunter's Guild, depending on what lore you believe), putting his last name as Kellic, a name that would stick with him. Within a mere 6 months into his career, Drasten would establish himself the reputation of an efficient hunter, completing every objective almost perfectly. During this time Drasten would also sell Venecis's TIE Fighter, finding it too noticeable what with the war going on as well as unsuitable to bounty hunter work, and would later purchase a Mandalorian Kom'rk Class Fighter which he christened the Nexu, which he would come to love and modify heavily throughout the years (strangely enough, the ship itself had been found abandoned on Mandalore shortly after the end of the Civil War there, as in during the Clone Wars, and had been slightly varied from the normal versions already, seemingly having thicker armour and slightly larger, leading some people to believe that this specific Kom'rk had been Pre Vizsla's personal ship, Kellic himself being one of those believers).

By 12 ABY, Kellic would create a name for himself, being nicknamed the "Happy Hunter," because of his notable (and occasionally infamous) lively and outgoing attitude during missions. Kellic would work for the New Republic, Imperial Remnant and other organisations, however, he had a very strict moral code that he followed to the letter (eg: refused to take missions that included slaves, unless it was liberating them, abducting innocents, killing children, etc etc), which was another thing he was known for. Sometimes he would even take down his employer if he knew how bad he was (as in on the moral scale). During the same year, Drasten would finally come around to building his lightsaber, some of the components including parts from Venecis's lightsaber, and installed the yellow crystal that he had kept. It may have been damaged, but there was no way he was going to be using Venecis's crystal.

In 13 ABY, Drasten would continue a childhood interest he had: history and discovery. Drasten wanted to further continue his own study into the Force and past of Force-Using Orders like the Old Jedi Order, however, he found that there was only so much you can get from the black market and museums. So Drasten alongside his bounty hunter career also decided to pursue more contracts that included exploring mysterious, exotic areas and ancient archaeological sights, even going on private pursuits that didn't include contracts, becoming somewhat of an amateur historian and explorer. And so Drasten's life continued, taking contract after contract, mission after mission. The only notable events that occured in this period was Drasten's development of his own experimental cybernetic devices and implants, most times testing them on himself.

In 15 ABY, after about five years of his career, Drasten decided to join the call for the reformation of a New Jedi Order, travelling to D'Qar for a new adventure.

Skills:
-Expert in engineering and electronic devices
-Amature Adventurer and Historian
-Very good with blasters and marksmanship
-Enhanced human traits (cybernetics)
-Good duelist (main focus is Form II Makashi, however, is also quite skilled in Form V Djem So and Form VII Juyo)
-Quick and Eager Learner
-Fast Improviser
-A bit more resistant to pain (torture tend to numb you a bit)
Weaknesses:
-A sometimes fragile control over his darker side which he tries to cover with his witty and outgoing attitude. This could potentially make him slip up, allowing that darkness and anger in his heart to jump out and reveal it's ugly face
-EMP and Ion blasts would be able to malfunction and even disable Drasten's different cybernetics, especially his arm
-Specific events or actions might trigger Drasten's PTSD, though he does a fairly good job at hiding it, it may cause him to freeze up in certain combat situations, leaving him vulnerable in battles
-When in situations that require more heavy strikes or more heavy duty lightsaber forms, Drasten usually switches his lightsaber to its heavier form, making it more potent as well as bigger, however, this strains the lightsaber crystal he uses (which has been slightly damaged) making it more unstable, which shows in its appearance when activated (basically, imagine Kylo Ren's lightsaber blade). This may be exploited by enemies (in more so other force users), in which they could potentially short circuit it or even make it unstable enough to blow up (eg: disrupting some of its wiring or such with the Force)
-At times he may or may get potentially easily distracted in combat situations (whether through talking too much or things reminiscent of darker times, it may vary), though his general alertness of his surrounding area with the Force and cybernetics generally counter that
-This may not count as a weakness, however, Drasten tends to prefer to work with people being treated as partners rather than as one person serving under another. He is obviously okay with being treated as a sort of underling (duh), however, he may show a bit more rebellious behaviour if that's the case.
