Original Character Bio
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
- Age: 24 GSY
- Force Sensitivity: Yes - Knight
- Species: Sluissi
- Appearance: Oshuzs possessed an upper humanoid torso mounted on a thick trunk-like lower body that gradually tapered off into a muscular prehensile serpentine tail. His skin was coated with armor-like black scales, and instead of hair there was a swooping, hoodlike fold of tough skin running down the back of his head similar to that of a cobra's. His hands end with four elongated, clawed digits perfect for manipulating even the tiniest bit of machinery. His most prominent features are his snake-like snout and the forked tongue that protrudes from within his fang-lined maw.
- Name: Oshuzs, Snake-Man of the Sith
- Loyalties: The Sith Empire
- Wealth: Moderate
- Notable Possessions:
Sith Lightsaber - Sith Robes
- Durasteel cuirass
[*]Skills: Oshuzs dedicated most of his training in lightsaber combat to continue his understanding in Forms I and III in the pursuit of his ambition to attain mastery over both, although he has given some degree of attention to hone the blaster-deflection aspect of Form V. One of his more unique talents when wielding a blade is that he is naturally ambidextrous and could swap his blade from left to right without much loss of skill or precision.
As a Knight of the Sith Order, Oshuzs knew how to manipulate all of the core powers taught to him by Sith instructors during his earliest years in the organization. As he matured, however; he sought not only to expand his grasp of the Dark Side of the Force, but to also rigorously study its history and philosophy to not only better understand the progenitors of the religion he adhered to but to also gain a greater understanding of the Force in general.
Oshuzs also has a proclivity for technology, often tinkering on various gadgets and doodads in his spare time whenever possible. He's even taken to collecting the scraps from busted training droids and cobbling them together into his own force of gangly servitors.
[*]Personality: Oshuzs, like most Sluissi, is a relatively calm and patient individual with highly social tendencies. One might not think that these qualities translates into being a dedicated Sith, but Oshuzs has defied the stereotypes to be a highly vocal advocate of the Sith teachings despite his outwardly tranquil mannerisms. These traits have mostly aided the budding Sith into appreciating strategy, specifically in the orchestration of long term plots that can further his ambitions within the highly cutthroat Sith society. Because of this Oshuzs has favored the third form of lightsaber combat above all others, favoring its highly defensive capabilities in conjunction with his innate patience to outlast those lacking both.
COMBAT INFORMATION
- Weapon of Choice:
Lightsaber - Dark Side of the Force
- Tail
[*]Combat Function: Oshuzs belongs to the militant arm of the Saaraishash, the Hand of Truth, and is thus considered an active combatant. When threatened he will usually attempt to flee and lure his pursuers into an ambush of his design, and when the fighting gets really dirty he isn't afraid to brandish his blood red lightsaber to defend himself. In conjunction with his blade, Oshuzs' powerful tail can sweep enemies off of their feet or even coil around them like a constrictor when they least expect it.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Oshuzs was born on Sluis Van in the year 827 BBY to a family who had been intimately associated with the Sith for many years, always sending their best and brightest to be tutored in the ways of the Dark Side at one of the numerous academies littered throughout the galaxy. When Oshuzs finally came of age he was sent to learn under the watchful gaze of the One Sith as they trounced their way through the Core in their fight against the decadent Republic who had toppled the Old Sith Empire only a few months prior. For years he studied, enriching himself on Dark Side knowledge and honing his skills in the Force and with a lightsaber.
By the time he had passed his trials and officially graduated from the academy at Glee Anselm, the war against the Republic was reaching its conclusion as the One Sith continued to press against them from all side following a monumental victory at Togoria in the Mid Rim. However; shortly after his first taste of action the Empire began to disintegrate from within as powerful factions vied for control in the wake of a localized civil war and the Dark Lord's demise.
It was during this turmoil that Oshuzs was captured by SIS agents and detained on the Prison Barge G.R.S. Mictlan where he met fellow inmate and Sith [member="Thengil Ri'Shajirr"], whom he followed into freedom after escaping the confines of the Mictlan in 848 ABY.
Oshuzs first joined the Sith Ascendancy after it had conquered Muunilinst and Mygeeto, and found himself pit against the Force Hunters at Kalee. It wasn't until the Ascendancy was reformed as the New Sith Empire that he finally found his calling in the Saaraishash, the Inquisition. His resourcefulness was put to use as he was assigned to the Hand of Truth and charged with acting as the muscle in Inquisitorial operations.
