Strengths And Weaknesses
- Strengths:
Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son; If nothing else, Kobe has the Force to rely upon. Both of his parents were strong Jedi, which has imparted upon him a fierce connection to the mystical energy
- Flash of the Blade; Kobe is not afraid to do what is necessary in order to achieve the goals of himself or his Master. He has been trained to fight, and is ruthless in his actions
- The Alchemist; Though he is presently only capable of dabbling, Kobe has taken to twisting the true nature of life in the Galaxy. He views himself almost as a God in that respect, holding power over life, death, and creation within his hands
- Lord Of The Flies; Kobe has an intense fascination with death. Where many would find disgust in the sight of mutilated corpses, and sanctity in places of rest, for him it is simply an excuse to observe and learn
- The Book Of Souls; His connection to death has left him with a distinct desire to circumvent it in any way possible. Kobe is constantly on the prowl for information, a so far fruitless search for a holy grail which will not only keep him from the grips of death but also return those who have already succumbed to the eternal void
- Moonchild; It is within the darkness that Kobe feels most at home. Under the veil of night, within shadows, skulking through chambers untouched by life and light, the areas that most would seek to avoid are where he is most likely to be found. He seems to be stronger when night falls, at least where the Force is concerned
[*]Weaknesses:
- Flight of Icarus; Above all else, Kobe must live with the knowledge that he is a failure. His attempts at avenging his family were fruitless, leading to him being forced to live as that which he despises, in the shadow of the man who had caused him untold misery
- The Edge Of Darkness; Corruption has sunk deep within him, forging him into the very thing he had first sought to eradicate. Each step he takes is seeped in darkness, and while he feeds from it he is also sapped and drained by the corruption itself. A double edged blade...
- Blood On The World's Hands; Kobe is cursed with the power to glean information from objects he comes into contact with; as he is largely untrained, he cannot control this power and oftentimes struggles to truly decipher what he's being shown. More often than not it causes disjointed visions that leave his mind trembling
- King of Twilight; Sleep does not come easily to Kobe; each night is a toss up between insomnia or a deep sleep filled with horrifying night terrors. Sleep paralysis leaves him feeling just as exhausted as he was before he closed his eyes to rest, and extended periods without sleep can cause hallucinations and a frightful temper to take control of him
- I Can't See My Feelings; Though it is hidden behind a thin veil of apathy or at times vehemence, Kobe is actually a man who is constantly bombarded and at odds with a whole cacophony of emotions. He is almost always at odds with himself in some capacity, an emotional wreck trapped within a husk of a man
- Lightning Strikes Twice; Before the age of five Kobe had lost both his brother and his mother, and was without guidance from his father. Having felt their deaths on a very personal level, even before being informed of their fates, he struggles on a constant basis to come to terms with their demise. Loss is not something he is particularly good at dealing with, and any reminders of it will result in an unexpected burst of emotion and rage
- Can I Play With Madness; After all he has suffered, all he has witnessed and been made to do, Kobe has made it out the other end somewhat... Damaged. He exhibits many traits which may suggest at least mild insanity
- Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger; Social interactions are not a strong suit of this particular man. He lacks many of the typical qualities most have come to expect as norms when thrust into social situations, actively avoiding meeting the gaze of those who are speaking to him, refusing to participate in forms of greeting, and will often walk away mid-discussion or seem to disappear into his mind. Conversation without a solid purpose infuriates him to no end, and generic fluff and conversation fillers will be outright ignored by him
- Communication Breakdown; Ever since he was just a child Kobe has found it difficult to vocalize his thoughts. Most of the time he will bypass speaking at all, living his life in a muted state, and when he is pushed to talk he usually speaks the bare minimum - sometimes just a single word or two at most. It is very rare that a topic is brokered which will gain his intrigue and bring him out of his shell, and in those moments people are usually surprised to find him speak in lengthy sentences for prolonged periods of time.
- Hallowed Be Thy Name; His name is a constant reminder of who he is. Those with the name Seren have been hunted by the God-King of Panatha for way over a decade now, and while Kobe presently does not need to worry about meeting the same fate as the others he is very much aware that one wrong move, a step away from the path Kaine has laid out for him, will result in his untimely death. It's as simple as that
- Hooks In You; Kobe has spent the majority of his life a prisoner to the whims of [member="Darth Carnifex"] - his most benevolent guardian who took pity on the child of the woman he murdered. While he has never wanted for much since becoming the mans Ward, the fact that he is his mother's killer has never been far from Kobe's mind, a constant living reminder of what Kaine did, of Kobe's own failures, and his present helplessness. The fact that he works for the man who tore apart his family and destroyed his life eats away at Kobe almost constantly, even if he has also been able to use the opportunities provided to his own advantage
- The Apparition; Kobe is plagued by the near-constant presence of his mother and brother, or more specifically phantoms of them. Their visages will appear at random moments, stood on street corners, visible in the corner of his eye, ever present reminders of the path he walks. Sometimes they appear alive, other times on the brink of death, and even at times in deteriorated states. At times they will communicate with him, though being that it is all in his mind their words are simply manifestations of his own doubts and concerns, the tiny spark of light inside an otherwise corrupted psyche

Pre-Roleplay History
Kobe was born the smaller of two twins, to Jedi Knights Asha Seren and Tracyn Ordo, and was named after his Father, who had been born Kobe Ordo. Not even a day into his life, Kobe suffered the loss of his twin brother, Cassus, who was taken from him by the Sith Lord Kaine Zambrano. As such, Kobe became everything to his parents. Raised within the Jedi Temple, he spent his time around the light and the peace, growing as an individual despite his young age.
Even at the young age of four, he took a keen interest in building things, albeit it was only blocks, which he built houses and towers out of, and he was never seen without a smile, giving a wave to any who would give him eye contact. His laughter would often fill the room that he was in. It was plain and simple. If he smiled, you smiled.
When he was a baby, Kobe's father Tracyn went off on a relentless pursuit of Kaine in an attempt to find Cassus. Due to Asha's sanity beginning to drain, Kobe's adopted uncle, Josh DragonsFlame, allowed Asha and Kobe to move in with him in order to take care of Kobe, as well as deal with Asha's issues while they waited for Tracyn to come home.
Years passed and Tracyn still hadn't returned except during short visits. Josh had taken to treating Kobe as his own son, to give him the father figure he desperately needed. The two becoming close proved beneficial when Asha suddenly left Kobe with the Jedi and left the Order to join a rogue Jedi conclave. Josh continued to raise Kobe himself until news broke out that Asha had been killed while seeking out the man who had killed his brother Cassus.
With his father still unable to return from his fruitless quest to find and exact revenge on Kaine, all the incredibly young and innocent boy could do was study as a Jedi, train and learn... Yet the loss had none the less impacted the child, who sunk into a quiet state. For even at such a young age, Kobe had felt the diminished presence of his twin and his mother through the Force.
