PHYSICAL INFORMATION
Age: 50
Force Sensitivity: Master
Species: Human
Appearance: Standing at a domineering 6ft 4", Lord Gevurah's fierceness is reflected in the heavy gaze of his purple-red eyes and menacing stance. On closer inspection, one can see his skin beginning to crack and rot under the pressure of the Dark Side that emanates around him, distorting his age or any hope for his original appearance. Often adorned in black velvet, golden silk and magical jewels, his terrifying aura portrays nobility, majesty and power.

SOCIAL INFORMATION
Name: Lord Gevurah Salian
Loyalties: Independent (formerly One Sith)
Wealth: As the sold heir of a wealthy Sith family from Coruscant, Gevurah has inherited a considerable sum of funds.
Notable Possessions: Gevurah's Lightsaber, Rendo Song's Lightsaber (The Song Lightsaber), various Force-imbued pieces of jewellery.
Skills:
Lightsaber Skills: Proficiency in Form II.
Force Skills: Proficiency in Telepathy, Sith Alchemy, Telekinesis, Push, Cryokinesis, Pyrokinesis; Mastery in Sense, Corruption
Personality: Gevurah has steeped in his own seething aggression and frustration for so long that any glimpse of what he may have been as a young man has long been trampled beneath the weight of his perpetual emotional dissonance. A brutal, cruel and cunning man, his ambition rivals his hubris as one continuously informs the other. Unforgiving, fierce and focused, Gevurah's desires to delve into the deeper forbidden mysteries of the Dark Side of the Force, operating from his fortress on Thape.

COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon of Choice: Gevurah's Lightsaber, The Dark Side of the Force
Combat Function: Though a skilled lightsaber practitioner, Gevurah can be bested by a dedicated swordsman, though prefers to have his Force skills serve him in combat. His ferocity in battle makes him a formidable opponent, but he is often blinded by his own unbridled desire to succeed, and thus becomes careless in his actions, easily distracted by a singular goal.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Self-proclaimed Lord Gevurah of House Salian is the last remaining heir of a Coruscanti Sith family. Studying the Dark Side of the Force relentlessly under the shadow of the One Sith in his earlier life, his ambitions grew fierce. Almost exclusively trained by his parents in the ways of the Sith, both accomplished members of the Order, he excelled in many of his skills, though favoured meditation and Force training over that of a lightsaber. Since a very early age, he was raised in the knowledge of a centuries-old feud with the Jedi Song family, and was conditioned to hate them from the very bottom of his heart. This rivalry stemmed back to the age of Remus of the Citadel, the infamous rogue Jedi Knight who actively rooted out many of the Salians during the Grand Conspiracy of Thape; a historical event kept almost exclusively by the two families in question. Since then, the Songs and the Salians have consistently brought private war upon one another through the generations.

During the peak of the One Sith empire, Gevurah's mother and father - both Sith Knights of noble descent - were slain in combat by the Jedi Rendo Song, who later ascended to Mastery for his efforts. The last remaining member of his family, Gevurah, now twenty years of age and a Knight himself, hoarded his inheritance and fled Sith space. The following decade of his exile revolved around the intense study of the deeper mysteries of the Dark Side in solitude, fuelled by a hatred towards Rendo Song and his brood. After spending many years drifting across space, mastering his skill as a corruptor of minds and bender of wills, he discovered the route to the relatively unknown planet of Thape - the metaphorical battleground for a monumental event in his family's history - and used his powers of corruption and domination on a town of peasants and vagabonds to create a slave network under his rule. Using Thape's natural resources, he constructed an armoured fortress with his new labour force, and stewed upon revenge.

Some years later, he perfectly administrated the kidnapping of Jedi Master Rendo Song, who he confined for over twenty years. During this time, he waited, for Song's children would surely look for him over time, and then he would strike and end the feud once and for all.

Looks good for the most part.

I'd just ask that you tone down either the number of Force powers or the number of Lightsaber forms known. Since you say he prefers to use the Force, it'd probably make more sense to do the latter.

Since he is a master, I'd like to see some more details in the history section. Explain how his upbringing, training, and his relation to the Song Dynasty. He's had a Song captive for 20 years - why so long? Why did he choose to come out of hiding and actively antagonize the Songs?

I had some very weird HTML issues with the thread, but I have cleaned it all up and added more history. I also changed his species and age, so that it would line up a little better with family histories. Let me know if you need more. Thank you for the push; I got lots more out of it!
