STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Strengths:
So'Sha's entire life was migrating from one battlefield to the next, learning the ways of war as if it were the back of his slimy hand. He came from a tribe known on his planet as the demons of the Red Ocean bank. Renowned for their brutality and lust for battle, So'Sha's clan was feared throughout the primitive tribes of the Rakata. Much like the Mandolorians the Demons eat, slept and drank combat and made it as much apart of them as there own flesh and blood. From the day he could walk So'Sha learned to wield a blade and fire an arrow. Training for war was his leisure time activity and studying tactics was his all time favorite hobby, everything from battles under the ocean to battles on the ground were studied by the young Rakata until there was simply nothing left to learn about the ancient ways of combat. Then, when the Rakata species rediscovered advanced technologies through the founding of an ancient sentient computer, he adapted and learned all their was to know about battles in the stars to battles on the oceans. Again he had trained so much with the new technology and learned so much about the ways of war that there was nothing left to learn from holocrons and mere exercise.
So'Sha was one of the first Rakata to rediscover the ancient dark artifacts that lay on the surface of his planets oceans. When the vault of Az'Kur was opened, he was hit with a blast of dark energy that would forever corrupt and morph his already sinister being. The powerful and ancient dark magic infused itself with the creature and gave him unimaginable powers in the darkside of the force. So strong was the darkside within him that his green skin turned grey and his eyes turned red. He know has power of the darkside not seen since the rise of the original Sith. There is downfall to such power, however, as he is one of the first Rakata since the collapse of the Empire to be so adept in the darkside. He know struggles to harness and control the darkside, having to start as a learner of its secrets before finally unlocking his true potential.
Weaknesses:
Proud and selfish, So'Sha holds the traits of many Rakata before him. He holds a major superiority complex, seeing himself as being superior to those around him to hide subconscious and conscious feelings of self-doubt. Overtime this eventually evolved to the point where he finds all non-Rakata species as absolutely inferior to him and his Empire. While this makes him charismatic to his people, It also makes him prone to jump into situations he can not handle. But it does not stop there, the ludicrous thoughts of So'Sha have extended into his people as well. He plans to one day begin a "cleansing" of the Rakata people and create artificially grown specimens of Rakata that are infused with portions of his DNA to create "the perfect race". Meanwhile, all other species in the galaxy will become slave workers and warriors for the Empire that will work off a caste system where all Rakata are superior to the rest of the galaxy who serve as their slaves. This, in his mind, is the way that not only this galaxy should be but all galaxies as well.
So'Sha spent so much of his early life learning the ways of war and training that he overlooked the need for almost all other walks of life. He can barely read or write his own language, let alone the learn the language of others, so all communication with species who do not know Rakatian must be done with an interpreter. To make matters worse, So'Sha can not read or write out his orders so almost all communication must be verbal or drawn in hieroglyphics for him to understand. He has tried many times to learn the written language of Rakatian but has always given up part way through the process.

BIOGRAPHY:
Homeworld:
Out of the three surviving colonies of the Rakata, So'Sha was born on the colony of Rakata Beta. After the collapse of the First Infinite Empire, most of the surviving Rakata fled to Rakata Beta.
Life:
So'Sha was born on the third month of the fifth cycle on Rakata Beta. His Father was Ri'Sha and his mother was Ki'Sha, the chieftain and medicine woman of the Sha tribe, also known as the demons of the Red Ocean Bank. He was the eight child of the couple but was the only one deemed fit enough to live as an infant. He would grow up the beaches of Rakata Beta's "Red Ocean", a place where the waters were red all year round except for one season of the year. His father taught him the ways of war from the moment he could walk, taking him on hunts for the lesser tribesman who ventured to far from their home. By the time he was twenty (still a prepubescent in Rakata years) he had already made his first kill. Also by this time the plague had just hit the galaxy, but the primitive Rakata people who had reverted back to barbarism had no idea there were even worlds outside their own.
Part of his daily life was worshiping the Sha tribes God of War, who was actually the first chieftain of the tribe and So'Sha's great grandfather. He learned that one day he would be chieftain of the Sha, when his father passed away to become a spirit of war in the afterlife, and that he would be expected to lead the tribe to greatness and conquest as each of his ancestors before him had. Because of this birth rite of divinity he rarely socialized with other children on anything less than a formal level. When he was considered a young adult (eighty in Rakata years) his father officially put him in charge of his own group of tribal spearmen and intrusted him with conquering the forest archers of the Southern Pangeaic Plains. By this time So'Sha believed he had learned everything there was to know of war, so he lead his people into combat against the archers. However, the boy had made a mistake and unknowingly went off the designated path of attack. This small error in directional judgment found him and his warriors in a narrow and long canyon, that offered a shorter route but at a dangerous cost. While he and his warriors marched down the canyon they were spotted by a archer patrol and were attacked from above by dozens of enemy combatants. He and his men fought valiantly but their lack of cover and the enemies superior archery skills the force almost annihilated and forced to retreat.
Upon his return to his tribe he and his men were round up and beaten for cowardice. His father called him a disgrace to the Sha name and ordered that he be executed along with his men. This was a psychological blow to the young man that he could barely come to terms with. His whole life he was expected to be something great and divine, now he was being sentenced to death by his own father. He pleaded for a second chance but his father simply told him that the medicine man, in charge of inspecting the children of the tribe and deciding if they live or die as infants, had been incompetent and that So'Sha should have died as a small baby. His father then ordered that the medicine man that inspected his son to be executed by So'Sha's side. The execution took place the following day, each of the warriors plus So'Sha and the medicine man were each lined up and put on their knees. One by one an executioner went down the line and bashed the skulls of each warrior with a rock club until death. So'Sha was the last in line and as the executioner raised his club he looked upon his father with a great sadness and despair...but just as the executioner moved to swing his club So'Sha yelled out at the top of his lungs "Father, I curse you and my Grandfather!"
So'Sha was beat mercilessly with the rock to the point of unconsciousness. Miraculously the boy survived six strikes by the executioner, each blow unable to crack his hard skull. His father became angry and ordered that the executioner take his own life with a ritual blade and that his son be thrown in a pit until morning when he would kill him himself. So, the boy was thrown into a pit and left their alone and unconscious. Before the morning sun rose, So'Sha regained his consciousness and climbed from the pit he was thrown into. Using the cover of night So'Sha snuck into his village and stole the same rock club that was used to kill his men. He then snuck into his parents hutt and murdered them both in their sleep, crying out curses as he beat them relentlessly with the club "I'm not a disgrace! I am So'Sha and you are nothing! You are the disgrace!" by the time the village warriors awoke to the screaming and raced to the hutt, So'Sha had already killed his pregnant mother and his spiteful father. The warriors looked at him with fear, for he had just survived execution and murdered the divine leader of the tribe and proven himself to be truly the rightful leader. Overnight the tribe gave their loyalty to the young leader, who ordered that his parents bodies be burned to ash and their open graves used as holding for bodily wastes.
As the years past So'Sha proved himself worthy of the title of Chieftan and conquered the entire Southern Hemisphere of the Pangea continent that covered their planet. It was after conquering the last tribe of the South, the divine seers, that So'Sha learned of ancient artifacts scattered around the oceans surface and the dense forests of Rakata Beta. He believed this artifacts to be a divine gift from the Gods that only he was worthy to possess, so he sent out his slave armies to find and bring the artifacts to him. It would later be discovered that a majority of these artifacts were broken Infinite Empire holocrons. 165 years before the end of the darkness, So'Sha's forces found a massive vault under the ocean that could not be moved for it was infused with the surface. So'Sha went down to see the vault for himself where his men opened it with a series of keys that had been discovered in earlier years. When the vault opened the majority of the tribal guard that accompanied So'Sha were eradicated by a wave of dark energy that was released from within. So'Sha, however, was infused with the powers that the dark artifacts inside the vault held giving him the strength of his ancient ancestors. Inside the vault he found holocrons and an ancient Infinite Empire artificial intelligence that called itself The Eternal One. So'Sha would soon discover that this A.I was actually the mind of an ancient Rakata who had had his mind preserved in the machine to ensure that any survivors of the plague would be able to relearn the old ways. With the help of The Eternal One, So'Sha spread the technological knowledge hidden within the vault, uniting the tribes of Rakata Beta 123 years before the darkness. The rest of the time was used rebuilding space fairing ships and reuniting with the tribes of the Rakata who had settled on two other planets long ago.
Soon after the reuniting of the Rakata tribes, it was decided that they would live under the Imperial Rule of the ancient times and that So'Sha would be their leader. He proclaimed his Empire the Greater Infinite Empire, believing that his empire would do what the ancients never could. When the darkness ended, explorers began coming into the unknown regions where they would be captured by the Rakata and turned into slave labor. The Rakata would breed the species captured like domesticated animals to have a free and infinite source of slaves. These slaves worked to rebuild the Infinite Empires military and bring a new goal into sight for the newly united people. They would once again rule over the galaxy like they had in the ancient times and So'Sha would lead their armies to victory under his new divine title, The Reclaiming one....
