STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Talf is considered to be a genius by many of his peers. Medically he is an outstanding surgeon, beating out even most Med-Droids in times for surgeries and often leaving less noticeable scars and doing less internal damage than one might think. On top of this Talf is an excellent combatant, his knowledge of human and many aliens physiology allows him to pinpoint weaknesses where others might not see it. He specialized in close range combat, using his superior armor for an endurance advantage when in the actual fight he uses a pair of crushgaunts and hundreds of small scalpels as well as a larger Tanto like blade.
The downside to all of these things is that Talf often himself becomes injured. During combat he becomes reckless, ignoring obvious dangers and taking unnecessary risks. Along side this more often than not Talf will not listen to another persons advice, thinking his own choices to be smarter and superior. Most of all Talf's stance on ethics has become increasingly blurred ever since the death of his wife. Normally Mandalorians have a strict code of honor, this has become lessened and lessened within Talf in recent months. This lessened moral stance means that Talf is far more likely to lean towards more...unpleasant dealings.

BIOGRAPHY:
Talf was born on the Chiss world of Csilla under the name Mat'al'frenz. He was born to a minor family within the Chiss, not much above a burglar. His family held no stature, and thus he really had no place for advancement at all. To counteract this at a very young age Talf had joined the CEDF as a combat medic. He accelerated through his training quite quickly, taking to cutting up bodies and even sowing them back together sometimes. Talf grew into his role quickly and at the age of 15 he was deployed on his first combat mission within the deep fringes of Chiss space. Here he encountered death on a massive scale. The Chiss were fighting the Vagaari in an all out war and Talf quickly found himself treating dozens if not hundreds of people a day.
During this time Talf became more and more skilled in the art of surgery as well as murder. From time to time his field hospital would be overcome with enemies and he would frequently have to fight his way out of bad situations. If was after nearly five years within the CEDF in constant fighting that Talf had finally seen enough of war. He abandoned his field hospital after a massive assault on his base, with the CEDF thinking him dead and or missing in action.
Instead however Talf ventured out into the greater galaxy, leaving behind Chiss space and venturing into the unknown. Here he found himself drawn to the many medical universities throughout the galaxy. For the next two years Talf become more and more acquainted with the Medical technologies of the greater galaxy. He became an even greater surgeon gaining renown for his skill and ability. It was this renown that later lead to him meeting his late wife.
At the peak of his medical fame Talf found himself as an attending at a hospital on Coruscant, it was here that one day a strangely armored woman wandered into his operating room. The woman claimed to be a Mandalorian, she also claimed to have an inoperable brain tumor. The woman herself was something of a doctor, though no such roll really existed within Mandalorian society. She wagered that with Talf's skill he would be able to remove the tumor without harming her. The Chiss doctor of course was skeptical, he knew he was skilled but he didnt know if even his abilities were that high. The woman, not willing to take no for an answer began to threaten Talf. She pushed and prodded him until eventually she convinced him to operate.
The surgery took hours, with Talf working away at the womans brains for almost a full day. After he finished the Chiss found that his skill truly had been enough and the woman made it through the entire procedure unharmed. She recovered surprisingly quickly, with Talf coming to visit her often throughout her healing. The woman as it turned out was actually a Mandalorian by the name of Natalia Arthul. The two of them quickly fell in love throughout her recovery and formed a close bond.
When she was healed Natalia brought Talf into the world of Mandalorians. He being a drifter and without family for many years took to it surprisingly quickly. He enjoyed the bonds he formed and the family he found. He became at home within the Mandalorians, eventually forging his own armor and becoming somewhat famous for his medical skill. During the next ten years Natalia and Talf created a home on Mandalore's moon Concordia.
Here they lived and worked, they set up a laboratory and free clinic. They allowed Concordians, Mandalorians, and anyone else that needed help to visit them there. Supposedly Talf and his wife would be able to cure all ailments, though that was of course a rumor. The truth was that the two of them worked well together, and were funded by Talf's very lucrative drug patents throughout the galaxy.
The two of them worked together for ten years, until the Sith began to act up once again. When the war with the Sith began Talf and Natalia like any loyal Mandalorians followed the call of the Mandalore. They joined the war without even thinking and quickly became renowned as not only warriors but combat surgeons. They became valued members of the Mandalorians clans and soon were found in almost every battle.
It was at one of the last of these battles that things fell apart. At the razing of Concord Dawn Talf and Natalia were fighting side by side once again. They felled dozens of Sith soldiers and a few of the Sith themselves until finally the unthinkable happened. Natalia was ran through with a lightsaber, the blade piercing the one weak spot on her armor, her throat. The blade ran her through and of course killed her almost instantly. Talf grief stricken began to murder his way to a solution. He killed and killed from dawn until dusk until his brother had to pull him from the fires. They drew him back from the killing field he had created and away from his Wife's body carrying him off world and back to Mandalore.
The Loss of his wife defeated Talf, ruining him almost completely. He became erratic, quick to anger, and almost cruel. He became someone else, something entirely different from what he was. He stopped speaking out at meetings between his brothers and sisters. He stopped going out, and most erratic of all he stopped seeing patients. The lab on Concordia began to stop seeing patients, and those that forced their way inside were never seen again except for in pieces outside of the labs gate. It was around this time and because of the butchered beings outside of the lab that Talf began to be known as “The Butcher of Concordia.”
Since then Talf has rarely made appearances. It has been almost a year since his wifes death and yet he is hardly back to his old self. He still does not speak, and he rarely answers when called upon. Still slowly but surely the Butcher of Concordia has begun to appear within the halls of Mandalore again. His black and blue armor finding itself in many places.
