---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
.Innate Strength with the Force: Much like other individuals of his species Salvaje is naturally strong in the Force and possesses a Midi-Chlorian level higher than most. This allows him to learn, and use, abilities of a higher caliber. This is a double edged sword though as it also makes him susceptible to drastic moral change based on where he sits on the balance.

.Natural Longevity: Although not immortal or invincible his species is widely known to live for up to a Thousand Years. This allows them to gain an unparalleled level of wisdom and knowledge that can not be found amongst other sentient beings.

.Nimble: Salvaje, like many of his kind, possess very small bodies and weigh no more than regular Human children. This grants him a certain amount of speed and agility that makes up for the lack of strength he has.

.Intelligent: Because of his longevity Salvaje possesses the knowledge, wisdom and intelligence of someone who has lived a full life despite the fact that he is considered no more than a teenager to his kin. This intelligence has peaked his curiosity in certain aspects of the Force, more focused on Ancient doctrines and philosophies than actual techniques. Wisdom is power. - SPECIALTY

.Physically Weak Species: Although his small frame grants him an increased level of speed and agility it also limits the peak of his strength. Because his muscle system accommodates his stature at best he can only hope to rival a Human child in terms of actual strength. This bodes ill for him when it comes to swordplay and lightsaber collisions, forcing him to adopt an alternative means of combat.

.Limited Sword Play: The small sentient has always had a fascination in the Force leading more of his attention to study than swordplay. Because of this his skill is limited to that of a few basic stances with intermediate knowledge in a few forms. Most other Force Users of his age would be Masters at wielding the lightsaber but his proficiency is compared to that of a Padawan Learner.


.Temperamental: With no tutor to teach him how to keep his emotions in check Salvaje tends to let his anger and short temper cloud his mind during times of confrontation. Unfortunately this shades his judgement leading him to take action where strategy and thought is needed and can be the cause for his defeat.

.Compound Allergy: A rare case in which the small sentient has become allergic to certain compounds when in contact with his skin. Strangely enough these materials are only limited to lightsaber resistant ores such as Mandalorian Iron, Songsteel, Cortosis, Phrik and Ultrachrome. This symptom is extremely rare and scientists are still unable to determine why these particular compounds set of an allergic reaction. Because of this Salvaje cannot wear or use weapons and armor that contain these materials.

ATTIRE:

Underlay: A full black body wrap made from synthcloth. The design is simple and hugs his grayish green skin tightly. The underlay extends to his wrists and runs to his ankles..
Robe: A standard grey robe with a hood made from light dexterous fibers. The robe extends as far as the wearers forearms and knees. The inner lining has been fitted with Tountoun fur to trap in, and utilize, Salvajes natural body heat.

Overlay: A primitive torso armor made from Bantha Hide rested over the robes. The armor was shaped so that it covered the wearers chest and shoulder blades and could be easily equipped by throwing it over their head. This was dark brown in color.
Waist: A simple thick belt made of Bantha Hide wrapped around Salvajes waist. There is a single holster located on top of his right hip which is used to holster his lightsaber. There are few other pockets and satchels scattered around the belt for smaller items.

Feet: Perhaps the only real armor worn by the small sentient, Salvajes shins are protected by a light durasteel plating that wraps around his calves. This is held on by braids of bantha hair which interlock between his tri toed feet.

ARSENAL:

Lightsaber:
A blade of humble beginnings and aesthetics, this particular lightsaber has been crafted from various unrefined materials (with the exception of the inner components) over the span of 55 years of traveling. The hilts casing, unlike many traditional sabers, is made from a hollowed out rancor claw found on Tatooine and has a long braid of a Wookies fur wrapped around the handle. Various beads, rocks and bones adorn the handle with each piece having its own history and personal meaning. Because of the claws natural curve the lightsaber has unintentionally taken the Makashii duelists preferred shape. The sabers components have all been salvaged from several parts and are composed from numerous technologies. The only authentic part of the lightsaber are the crystals in which he obtained through unknown means.

Blade Information:
.Crimson colored blade
.Qixoni Crystal

Hilt information:
.Casing made from a rancor claw
.Decorated with a wookie braid, bones, stones and gems
.Type: Curved Shoto

.15cm in length

BIOGRAPHY:
Like all members of his species Salvajes origins are clouded in mystery. To this day there is no official 'label' for his kind nor does the Galactic database hold any information on their Home Planet. Very few of his kind venture out into the Galaxy to mingle with other diverse species and if they do they tend not to divulge information regarding their whereabouts. Its a strange tradition but one that all of them follow despite their outlook on life, a kind of respect paid to their culture and ancient beliefs. One thing is for sure though. Once they leave they home they may never return, a sort of permanent pilgrimage that very few take. And for good reason.


-Information from infancy to the age of 20 shrouded in secrecy-

Once Salvaje was twenty years of age he made the hard, yet dedicated, decision of leaving the comfort of his Home World. Since he was old enough to comprehend words he was told by his Father of an expansive Universe that extended far beyond the skies of their Planet, mysteries, wonders and unimaginable creatures that inhabited exotic landscapes. With a natural curiosity and a unquenchable thirst for knowledge Salvaje was adamant in his choice. The only thing he constantly thought of was the repercussions of leaving and never returning. That was the way of his people, those were the conditions. It could be speculated as to why very few of his kind existed outside of his Planet. Equipped with a basic and small shuttle made for a single person he stepped into the metallic doors and said his final farewells to friends and family. He would never see them again and his departure was an emotionally painful one.

For the next 55 years he would spend his days as a hermit bouncing from one Planet to the next, fascinating over new locations, unthinkable species and their natural way of life. As a sentient naturally adept in the Force his main focus was to learn more about the mysterious power and its origins, the numerous philosophies that had evolved since its culmination and the different adaptations used by its users. He was astounded at the information he found on new Planets and the relics left behind by those who proceeded him. It was the ancient ruins of the Jedi on Datooine that first introduced him to the construction of a lightsaber. With little more than a few holopads and holocrons he walked the long path of constructing his own. And it wasn't a short task. As he traveled to other locations he found and salvaged components and materials, most of them worn out and as ancient as most of the existing Orders. But he was patient, it was more about the experience than obtaining the tool with haste and his patience served him well. After decades of gathering and research he was able to create his own unique hilt that reflected his life as a wandering sage, each piece telling its own story, each component with its own history. But his discoveries did not come without their dangers. With a midi-chlorian level as high as his he was easily swayed by his emotions and experiences which tipped him dangerously to the dark side on many occasions. There were times where his faith was renewed which balanced out his inner conflict.

Within the last few years he had found solitude on a terrestrial Planet located in the Outer Rim where he would live his life in voluntary exile from civilization. It was here that he continued his research, where he built a small shack to call home. Surrounded by nature far away from Cities and settlements he practiced his techniques and arts. But one can only progress so far without experienced tuition.

His journey had only just begun...

SKILLS AND ABILITIES
It should be noted that Salvaje has not been formally trained by a Master in the ways of the Force, instead he is self taught. He relies on scavenged holocrons, datapads and ancient scrolls outlining philosophies in various arts. Because of this the sentient cannot excel past a certain degree with his abilities without proper tutorship despite how long he has studied the arts. Most individuals his age would be Masters or respected Knights in their organization due to proper guidance, however, as a self learner he finds it harder to excel and expand his abilities pass their limitations.

PROFICIENCY SCALE
.Fundamental Awareness: Has a basic understanding about the skill and has researched it on a theoretical basis. Although this skill is able to be performed it is untrained and unrefined. Its effects are at its most minimal.
.Novice: Has a full understanding about the skill in theory and has been practiced on a few occasions. Although the ability is stronger it is still at its most basic levels. This is the equivalent of a Padawan/Acolyte that has a few years of their apprenticeship under their belt.
.Intermediate: The skill has evolved to that equal of a fully fledged Padawan/Acolyte and can easily be applied without too much trouble. Although the skill can be executed with relative ease it is only considered above its most basic levels.
.Advanced: Practice has made the user more proficient in its use and the skill is on par to a Knight who has served their order for a reasonable duration as a fully fledged member. The skills are more potent and can be used with ease but its full potential is still unrealized.
.Expert: The technique has been understood both theoretically and in application. This skill is at its natural limits of potency and can be used as if it was second nature. No longer is its use taxing and its proficiency can be compared to that of Masters/Lords.
.Master: Years of practice and dedication, paired with natural aptitude, have evolved this particular skill beyond its limits to something more. Executing these techniques are taxing but only due to the concentration required in using it. Because of the practice required for a skill to reach this level only a very small handful of abilities can reach this category. This level of proficiency is only reached by those extremely gifted in the Force and Grandmasters.

Come hang with us at the Twister ice cream bar on Corellia...

1. The picture - Karking awesome. The fact that I haven't ever seen it, is something in and of itself, but it's truly a work of art that speaks to me.
2. Trakata - Oh yes! It's so rarely mentioned, but it is by far my -favorite- form of lightsaber combat.
3. Color coding - Yes please! It helps make things readable, and it attracts my moth like attention.

So welcome to Chaos, glad to have you on the board, and very excited to see this little green muppet wreck face!

Oh. So my bios aren't good enough? Nor is my own use of Trakata? ;) Nah. it's all good.

Holy crap, Force abilities. Malacia is hard to preform as a Knight. Doing that as a padawan is darn near impractical.
(I think) He is a species that kind of naturally does that. I mean, how do you think Yoda lived that long?
 
[Member=Evad]
Thank you, your compliments are much appreciated

[Member=Saran Drast]
Thank you for the heads up, I'm hoping that despite being a padawan the characters age would merit him some sort of proficiency (even if its very minor) in some force abilities. I shall change the ranking of Malacia. Feel free to critique any other aspects that do not seem feasible :)

Both of these powers some RPJ's frown on. So you may want to be careful about having them listed. Even some Masters are frowned upon because of those abilities. Powerful and extensive, if you have the threads to prove it, then good, if not.....

[member="Evad"], *Bios I have a few that are extensive. not to brag or anything (I am so bragging and nagging) Not a lot of people see them actually. So it's all good. ;)
 
[member="Salvaje"], Like I said If you work for it, they will accept it. I had a Fire Shaper who learned to use Combustion simply because it was a type of Pyrokinesis use. So if you learn to use it, I see no problem with it.

One that you might add is Precognition (Basic) because just about all Force users have some form of it. Be it battle precog, or Foresight.
