STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES


Strengths

Dexterous: Due to his training and profession as a Ranger, and augmentation from the Force, although unknown to him, Yan has developed quite the acrobatic skills, able to maintain stealth in snow and forests, skilled in quicker styles of fighting and guerrilla combat, hit and run tactics, as well as climbing trees to set up ambushes.

Tracker: Often hunting to survive in Midvinter wilderness Yan has developed knowledge of tracking animals and bandit movements, his sight, hearing, and smell became acute over the years, augmented, unknowingly to him by his Force Sensitivity.

Force Sensitive: Yan is able to sense, use, as well as be sensed through the Force, although proper training would be necessary to fulfill his potential in that regard.

Medical Training: Although not an official Doctor, Yan does have training from experience, as well as the extend of knowledge Vylkiri medics were able to gather with their limited technology, he does have knowledge of field surgery and internal medicine, taught by few physicians and surgeons of the Vylkiri tribes. His healing skills are somewhat augmented by his Force Sensitivity, although that is unknown to him.

Nature Bound: Yan's close tie with nature allows him degree of communication with animals of Midvinter, this bond is weaker off the planet's surface, and some control of the plants, like causing roots to entangle his prey or ability to charm animal and calm them. While he believes it to be a magic gifts from Runa and Éar, goddesses of the Earth and Hunt, it is in fact a Force Ability. Through his proximity with nature Yan has also developed survival skills.

Marksman: Skilled in arts of Marksmanship with Bows and Arrows this knowledge somewhat translates into use of firearms like slugthrowers or blasters, however Yan will always be more comfortable with bows or crossbows.

Knife Fighter: Knife is a useful tool in the Wilderness, it can skin, it can filet, it can be used to set up traps or cut down branches, and it can kill. Yan usually carries multiple knives on him, ranging in sizes based on utility, he is comfortable with using them for melee combat as well as throwing them.

Hardened: As most Valkyri, Yan became resistant to frost and cold due to planet's climate, therefore it is easier for him to resist harsh conditions of cold planets as well as frost damage.

Logical and Scheming: As man of science (Somewhat, not really) and a medic, Yan relies mostly on logic rather than blind faith, and due to often relying on ambushes in his combat, he became somewhat scheming, feeling safer when he always has plan B or something up his sleeve.

Peppers and Cucumbers: His love of Peppers and Cucumbers has made his hair rather luscious.


Weaknesses

Skinny: Although tall, Yan is rather slender and more frail than other Valkryi, while he does carry a claymore with him for pure combat purposes, he does not have enough strength to wield it properly, swinging it around as one would with a hammer. To be fair, the weapon is not used that frequently by him.

Antisocial: Life in forests with little human contact outside of sick and wounded has made Yan a rather shy and antisocial person, in taverns and inns he prefers to sit alone, he has little knowledge of upholding conversation, and when he speaks, it's often in shorter sentences and straight to the point.

The Ladies, Man, The Ladies: While he is shy and socially awkward, it does not mean he doesn't want some romance. As an eligible bachelor he is looking for someone to warm his cold nights, but that often leads to failure as due to his antisocial nature he does not know where to take it further outside of just approaching women. In that regard he also fails to learn from mistakes.

Technological Inferior: As most Valkyri, Yan is unfamiliar with more advanced technology such as ships, droids, and blasters. It often scares him, at least until he'll get used to it, and he would require more training than usual recruit to learn how to handle new weapons.

Force Unaware: As most Valkyri, Yan is unaware of the Force, or what he believes to be magic granted to him by gods of Midvinter. Due to that and his age, it may be impossible for him to fully realize his potential in the Force and become a full-fledged Force User.

Boastful: As other Valkyri, Yan enjoys boasting of his past deeds, although a bit arrogantly, much to the annoyance of others.

Stubborn: Stubborn as an old ram, it is difficult for him to accept new ideas, ways, or when he's wrong, it seems to run in the species.

Germophobic: Due to his nature as Doctor, Yan has seen sickness ravage people out of nowhere, now he has tendency to wear his medic's garb, especially the mask, wherever he goes, especially when he has company, he believes it helps him from becoming sick.


SKILLS


FORCE ABILITIES

Spell of Alarm (Basic Force Sense)- When praying, meditating, or playing a sentry, Yan is able to extend his senses with this spell and ward an area around him, as such he becomes aware of any movements or threats around him. In reality it's just broad use of Force Sense to sense beings through smaller distance but in all directions. First utilized in Born To The Cold.

Spell of Read Magic (Elementary Education)- He can read. It's not even a Force power, he's just literate.

Spell of Ultravision (Basic Force Sense)- Using powers of Nature, Yan can cast a spell to "see" his enemies through cover like shadows, darkness, or clouds. He does so by tuning into their life and Force signatures, ineffective against synthetic beings like vehicles or constructs. First utilized in Winter of One's Heart.
 

Doctor Yan Korab

Midvinter Ranger and Medic (Neutral Good)
APPEARANCE
A tall and rather slender man of tan skin, dark yet kind eyes, and black mess of hair. This rugged ranger tends to smirk and smile when his protective mask is off, which happens rather rarely. While he does look like he could use a bit of a hair cut, and shave, he keeps his appearance somewhat clean in order to prevent hair from getting in his way, like falling on his eyes. Usually he wears darker or brown garbs to blend into shadows, night, or just forest itself. Most of his gear is a bit tattered and dirty but it does seem like he at least tries to take better care of it.


BIOGRAPHY


Born to a common family of hunters, Yan grew up being taught the craft of tracking, stealth, and utilizing a longbow as a deadly and precise weapon. Years passed uneventful as he was taught by his father how to fight and how to survive in multitude of ways. It wasn't until the Doctor's teenage years that he was separated from his family, his tribe has been raided by a bandit party and his family slain.

Yan took to the road on that day, fleeting his tribe believing that his home was no more and from then on he led a life of journey with no real place to settle down in. As he traveled he shaped his craft of a marksman and huntsman, often making living by tagging along with hunting parties to grant them aide. Such was his life until he came upon a Doctor in the grand city of Tháinbroek, the man saw potential in young Yan's mind and begun to teach him ways of medicine.

But Yan even when younger was a wild and stubborn sort, he longed for the road and freedom of journey rather than comfort of life under the Doctor's tutelage. The unlikely pair came to a compromise as the Doctor wrote Yan a referral to one of his colleagues in a tribe across the landmass. Although Yan considered just running off at first, he decided to follow through with this quest, enjoying the concept of wealth and appreciation from the people that came with the job, journeying across the frozen landmass to continue his training as a Doctor. Ever since then Yan has been bouncing from one settlement to the other, eventually finishing his training under one of the numerous medics that taught him, but continuing to journey to help others and just for the wanderlust's sake.

Somewhere along the line Yan discovered that he had powers no other hunter had, he could manipulate plants and roots, he could sense and influence some of the animals, he was more attune with the Nature than others. Believing this to be a magical gift from the Goddesses of Midvinter, Yan kept his gift a secret, honing his abilities when he was alone in the wilderness, and strengthening his bond with Nature. It was because of that Yan decided to become a Ranger, or at least call himself one, Guardian and Protector of Wilderness. Who also loved peppers, cucumbers, and the ladies. Oh yes, the ladies.


And so it was then that his story begun and fate made him ready to start his adventures on greater, galactic scale.

Eh. Shrinks bore me. Medics are the interesting ones. Always working as fast as lightning in a battle. Makes you wonder how fast they work in other places.... ;)
