STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Strengths
- Echani Martial Arts, Sword and Fist.
- Crystal Communication. Able to communicate on subtle levels with force crystals.
- Crystal Building, is able to shape and mold crystals to use them in ships, sabers, and other more exotic but practical uses.
- Precision and timing. Traditional Echani culture is combat, its foundation and upbringing, despite the Kae's attempts to shift it. At least to the Keth themselves this remains true.
Weaknesses
- Doesn't recognize many off world customs due to his isolation.
- Force Motion Disability - Is unable to learn force movement techniques outside of his own body, like TK attacks and Force Push/Pull
- Feels pain when he causes pain. (This is lessening with training and serenity)
- Values personal honor exceptionally highly, a crippling trait often depending on the situation.
- Fights for traditional echani ideals, and will nearly always be seen to uphold them predictably.
- As with most Echani they look like their parents, almost exactly so, Taiden Keth looks almost exactly like Aiden Keth an old ancestor and his family line can be recognised easily by anyone who has a basic knowledge of his family line.
Strength and Weakness
- Echani Communication through combat, as with all of his race, Taiden speaks through combat, learning of his opponents through body language and motion. He also reveals himself through combat to those fighting him. The more you duel him, the more you will know the man.
- House of Keth. - Why is this a strength and weakness, you'll see.
- Suspicion, not paranoia anymore but bouts of deep suspicion of the unknown.
SHIP:
None as of yet.
BIOGRAPHY:
The Keth Family Crest:
The past:
This is the legacy the Keth's have been dealing with, and although Thyrsus has rebuilt and the galaxy has moved on, the Keth name hasn't healed one bit. They are despised by most Echani.
Background BEFORE roleplaying started:
Echani's live through motion and combat, they read and communicate through the arts of war, rarely relying on verbal communication to get their point across, as the smallest gesture speaks volumes through body language. Duel one long enough and you'll learn of them, eventually knowing them inside out. Taiden as with all keth study strategy and warfare in the Baobab archives, the history of the Echani and their people. Now the Keth name is scarred beyond recognition of what it once was, and all Keth carry the burden of being known as the betrayers of their people.
Like his ancestors Raien, Aiden, Kiara, Aizen, Raya, Saeria, Issra who once found their path taking them from their Wodenstam home to find each other or to fix what Raien started. The hatred of Keth Echani both on Wodenstam and off of it, caused Taiden to leave his homeland. He was the ideal candidate for the Crystal Builders to recruit, indoctrinated to the task of freeing what other's have shoved in his face all his life, they made it all important, so he will see his ancestor reborn and get the answers from the man's face. Raien Keth - Right before he kills him.
Taiden Keth, Is the 2nd Brother, the second assassin known as, The Threshold. Taking precision and poise to the finest point and beyond. Siblings not by birth by a common bond, to see it done. Highly skilled in Echani martial arts, and possessing their inherent racial battle sense, the ability to read others through combat and predict the flow of it. His training is to use the opponents force against them, in all situations.
And here we go.
Bioghraphy Pre SSC
In his heart, for the right reasons Taiden allied with the army of light, to bring a new era of strength and propsperity for the Echani people to light. Ultimately his war for the army of light was unsuccessful, risking what little respect he had left on the homeworld and ultimately being caught in a netherworld portal in their last campaign, unsuccessful in his goals to bring Thyrsus into a new age of rebuilding. Now even the little respect he had left from his own family is all but used up. He tried to betray [member="Kei Amadis"] and the other crew members in a last desperate act to follow through on his training, to put himself closer to [member="Raien Keth"]. When he realised he was betraying the last good thing in his life, doing exactly what his ancestor did, he tried to correct his mistake, receiving severe wounds in a brief battle with the Sith Knight.
Biography with the SSC
A scholar and Jedi. Taiden has been welcomed at the Voss temple for several years now, trained by [member="Nima Tann"], and [member="Matsu Ike"] he has found many of the gentler qualities he sort, long ago finding reason to train beyond the need to merely fight to prove himself [member="Coci Heavenshield"], assisting Matsu Ike especially in many of her projects for the good of others, exploring the living force. His discovery of his ancestor Aiden Keth's scolls, ( [member="Matier"] ) , finding these ancient writings has contributed to his growing maturity and born further streaks of gentleness inside the padawan, whereby he vowed to continue the tradition of keeping written record. He still trains daily, maintaining his traditions of his ancestors, but has woven an entirely different fate to [member="Raien Keth"]. Taiden has growing adaptions to light based force defenses and techniques which rely more on deflection or gentle misdirection of those he seeks to save. The house Keth honor guard that fight with him, and his devotion to [member="Taresa Kae"], daughter of the house of Kae has given him new faith in the Echani as a whole.
