|+| The Master: Having been trained since childhood in the Jedi arts, his over-a-century lifetime thus far has allowed time to attain the rank of Master in hierarchy of the traditional Jedi Order. As such, his training allows him a more focused and masterful in his powers and connection to the Force.|+| Longevity: Per his mixed Sephi and Morellian heritage, Serek is due to have a life longer than his compatriots of normal lifespan. At present, he is close to three centuries in age and is just barely into a life state similar to an 80 year old human.
|+| Age Matters Not: Despite his advanced years, Serek keeps himself in good shape. While not as quick or strong as a younger person, he is able to keep up nonetheless.
|-| Hard as Stone: Due to the amount of tragedy he has seen in his long life, from the Gulag Plague to the Netherworld opening up, Serek has become a hardened man. This is in addition to his logical philosophy on the Force, which can sometimes come off as lacking compassion.
|-| The Vow: A strong adherent to the traditionalist doctrine of the Jedi Code, Serek will never intentionally take a life unless the option for peace has been exhausted. When he ignites his lightsaber, he aims to incapacitate and neutralize rather than outright kill. Even if it may apply to someone others deem in need of death. By extension, he partakes in a strictly vegetarian diet.
|| APPEARANCE ||
Outwardly, Serek appears like a human male in his early 80's, with his once black hair changing into silver, usually kept short. However, his alien nature is given away by his pointed ears, genetics from his mother's side. He has a stern, but grandfatherly expression on his face. || BIOGRAPHY ||
Over two centuries ago, Serek Vhaa was born to an unlikely pairing. His mother was the daughter of a Sephi diplomat, and his father a Morellian security specalist. While his grandfather had intially disproved of their coupling, the old Sephi relented. Young Serek had every opportunity afforded to him, and a relatively happy childhood. Despite this, he was always reminded to have compassion for those less fortunate than he. He was eventually shown to be sensitive to the Force, and with his grandfather's ties, allowed him to be evaluated by the Jedi Order of the era.
Once inducted into the Order, the young Serek was made a Padawan. He was apprenticed to a Kaminoan Jedi by the name of Rhema Tu. In this age long ago, the galaxy was chaotic with the Gulag plague rampant. His master taught him to be vigilant and orderly to balance the chaos.
As he grew older, Serek eventually was given his trials and passed. Upon this graduation, he became knighted as a member of the Jedi Knights. Beyond this, he spent his years protecting a chaotic Galaxy and furthering his studies in the Force. Overtime his tutelage in the Jedi Arts became such that he was granted the rank of Master by his fellow Jedi.
Yet hardship would find him. As the galaxy reached its current era, the Elder Jedi would witness the coming of many tragedies. The uprising of machines. The Netherworld opening and consuming souls across the Galaxy. Too many friends and comrades lost. The final stroke came when the One Sith returned and began enforcing their dark regime upon all. Disillusioned by the Jedi becoming detached from their traditions, Serek went on a self-imposed exile. In his solitude, he developed a variation of the Jedi philosophy. After witnessing so much in his life, he decided to espouse a philosophy that was more Gray, and placed logic over most emotions. Yet, through Force and Holonet, he keeps listening to the events at large, sailing in space to where he feels he's needed.
