Darses Arkano
Human male
Jedi 5
[sblock=Appearance] Darses is a 24 years old human with long and black hair. He is quite tall, and quite thin, which gives him almost an aristocratic appearance. This is confirmed by an intelligent and austere face, a scarred right cheek, lips slightly tipped as if he was judging his surroundings: judging them negatively, apparently. His eyes are brown tinged with a strange golden touch, and they are often a little bit wide, as if he was surprised and interested. He wears long and flowing robes, brightly colored with red and green motives. Other than that, and a belt, he doesn't appear to carry anything else: not even a lightsaber. Attentive observers however can notice that there indeed is a lightsaber, on the internal part of his robes: not carefully concealed, just out of sight.
Perhaps the first thing that is noticed when he appears, however, is that unless he is on a Republican military ship, a little and stunningly beatiful girl follows him everywhere. She seems to be at most 4 years old, and has blonde-brown hair and slightly pointed ears. Her beautiful violet eyes gaze innocently, absorbing the surroundings. She is also very quiet, and never wanders too far from Darses.[/sblock]
[sblock=background]Darses was born the son of merchants on the planet Bpfassh, in the Outer rim. Before the advent of the Empire, that planet was only know for the fact that several Dark Jedi originated from there, and rampaged through the sector, to be stopped by a Jedi taskforce led by Master Yoda himself. The Dark Jedi were popular and powerful figures on the backward planet, and the spread mistrust of the Jedi that episode generated was only reinforced by the Imperial propaganda.
For his entire childhood, Darses was regarded as a mental retard: he had a severe attention deficit disorder, and always seemed to be be in his own world. He barely knew how to speak, and he was by no means capable of reading or writing. His parents died during an epidemy and the only relative left was his grand-grandmother, which inherited all the (small) fortunes of the family. The old lady stubbornly decided that she would see him healed before her death, and spent her every fund for this purpose. The scientific laboratories on Bpfassh couldn't find out what was wrong with Darses: his brain scans, although revealing some strange anomalies, didn't find anything that could cause such great symptoms. When Duilia heard that the rebel alliance is trying to revive the Jedi order, she sold everything she possessed and boarded a ship towards the Galactic core.
After several months of information gathering, Duilia met Leia Organa Solo, and presented her the 12 years old Darses. As soon as Leia touched the child, she collapsed on the floor, blacking out because of a sudden and complete exhaustion. After the eager bodyguards finally ensured that Leia is fine, and the whole misunderstanding was cleared, everyone was astonished to see that Darses had suddenly became a normal young boy: he could speak, he could read and write and seemed to be quite bright. At the same time, however, he had very dim memories of his whole life, not remembering at all his parents, and the only person he recognized was Duilia.
After accomplishing her goal, and seeing her grand-grandnephew healed and accepted at the Jedi academy, the old woman finally let herself go, and passed out just a few months later at the venerable age of 103.
Darses proved to be still a little bit strange. He plain out ignored half of the things that his teachers tried to teach him, sustaining either that they are doing it wrong or that they are teaching it wrong. It wasn't a good way to make friends, so eventually he stopped commenting, and everyone thought that he had finally grown up. In truth, he had simply realized that there is no sense in antagonizing them: evidently, he was the only one with a voice in his head, guiding him trough visions and dreams to new levels of the force mastery. His progress was astonishing not only because of his speed (he was quite slower than Padme Solo, though): the complete surprise came from the fact that he started manifesting force powers that no one used to teach, and he knew a lot of them.
While his progress with the lightsaber was close to null, he rapidly progressed in force mastery and the study in several fields: history, hard sciences, technology and military tactics. At the age of 18 in fact he left the Academy to act as an assistant to the Navy's officers. He started to return every 6 months, spending at least a week with each new student, teaching them mostly about telekinetic powers. He actually just gives some basic lessons, and seemed more interested in evaluating rather than in teaching.
Three years ago, he disappeared for almost 10 months, cutting all contacts and reappearing with the scar on his face and a small girl. Although he allowed the medics to fully examined him, he refused to speak about her and even flat out denied to one of the Jedi the right to examine her. This led him to a nasty conflict with the said Jedi, a senior master according to whom the young girl is force sensitive and must be further examined and trained. Darses defied the authority of the Jedi, and found some backing in the council: after all, if he wished to raise and train her, that is no problem: even if he refuses to call himself a Jedi Knight (opting for just Jedi), he was already graduated by the time. Besides, his reputation as a Jedi who has never in his life used the lightsaber in actual combat was already spreading.
Darses acts as an assistant and consultant for the Navy, accepting to be assigned to any commander they choose. He is not married, but has informal relationships on a "don't ask, don't tell" basis with several women[/sblock]
[sblock=Personality] Darses Arkano is an intelligent, extremely smart, educated and wise young man. Having a somewhat stern personality, he resembles quite a lot the "no-nonsense" Jedi Knights of old (well, no one can say that because no one knows how were the Jedi Knights of old).
His defining characteristic is that since childhood he had been hearing a voice. The voice guided him in his learning process, and he firmly believes that the voice belonged to an ancient Jedi Master. And as such, he believed that his destiny is to act as a bridge: the lore that was lost was to be rediscovered for the New Jedi Order through him, the chosen one. Well, a shame that the voice suddenly fell silent when he was 19. After two years of internal struggle, he finally arrived to the answer, and accepted it with new-found humility: he is indeed the one that will act as a bridge, but he won't be the one with bristling talent and unlimited potential. That one he would have to find and educate. Almost as if a reward for his enlightenment, a new vision came and guided him to the outside of the outer rim, towards an undiscovered planet, where he found and freed the small girl.
Since then he has been taking care for her and guiding her. He feels an incredible force potential in her: although he cannot be sure, he suspects that it may be on par with Anakin Skywalker. She is a little bit unstable, though, as he was when he was little. So, every day, he meditates with her, and stabilizes the force around her: otherwise, she would grow anxious and scared for no apparent reason. He will fanatically protect her at the cost of his life, however he believes that her destiny is stronger than his, and has no fear in bringing her on battleships that are going to soon engage the enemy. For simplicity's sake, in front of others he acts as her father, and refuses to explain further.
Unfortunately, he never managed to convince Republican officers to bring her on board. Although he is a precious assistant, no commander is willing to put on a risk the live of a child without an extremely convincing justification, possibly coming from the President and signed by the Minister of War. So he asked Padme Solo to take care of her, when he is on mission, and teached her the short procedure to stabilize the child's force. When Padme is too busy to care about that (which is, most of the time), she leaves it to some of her close friends at the Academy. Darses, when possible, spends several hours each day in a holographic communication with the child, asking her barrage of narrations and questions: basically, she uses him as a diary and doesn't seem to know that most children don't share so much information with their parents. At the same time, he teaches her and counsels her.[/sblock]
[sblock=build]3x force training, Skill focus: use the force and knowledge(galactical lore). Skills: use the force, KN (tactics, galactical lore, technology, physical sciences). Talents: Force intuition, Force perception, Visions. Wis 17+1 for 15 force powers.
He fills the role of a tactician and knowledge monkey. If the party requires so, I can switch one of the talents and becomea pilot.
In combat, he most of all uses telekinetic power to fling enemies around, stun and force grip to fight single enemies, disarms and provokes general mayhem. For defense, he uses negate energy, or just protects himself with floating objects. He also has the farsee and mental trick. [/sblock]
I just realized what made your original descriptions have a familiar tone drothgery... I think I've met this Grand Admiral Serrano before
