STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Stengths:
Cold Tolerance- Tristram has inherited the Pantoran’s natural tolerance for the cold from his mother. This means he can handle temperatures that most other species can not and handle the cold for longer.
Trained- Tristram has been trained in both the ways of the force and in how to handle weaponry. Be it a saber, blaster, or rocket launcher he can handle it competently.
Tough- Tristram is not scared of pain nor a stranger to it. He has the mental fortitude to deal with things that might incapacitate others and has an easier time shrugging off mental attacks.
Singing- Tristram is a man of combat, but he is also a man of song. He has a wonderful singing voice and enjoys it as well.
Compassionate- Tristram is a man who can’t help but feel for others. If he sees someone in danger or in need of aid he will do whatever he can to help them. While this trait is not always considered good, it is from this near instinctive compassion that he finds the strength to be a rogue lightsider.
Neutral:
Determined/Stubborn- Tristram is a man known for not changing his mind. This trait leads to him being very determined. He can not be easily influenced by others for this reason and so will forge his path all the way to the end despite the hardships. This also leads him to being called stubborn as a nerf as well. He won’t change his mind or stance on things easily despite how much he honestly should. He can end up hurting himself or others by accident just because he would not stop doing something he started.
Trickster- Tristram is a natural trickster. He loves to tease and play around with others to the point that he just can't help himself. This can cause as many problems for him as it can endear others to him. This trait also leads to his love of games, both literal and metaphorical, which can come out as pranks and acting. While this can get him into trouble it also allows him to fool others by pretending to be more foolish or less aware of things than he really is.
Weaknesses:
Authority- Tristram is a rebel at heart even going back to his time as a jedi. He always found it hard for himself to respect any sort of authority figure that he doesn’t feel earned it. Because of this he tends to be less compliant with the law than he should be and his actions around authority figures can be disrespectful.
Sith- Tristram absolutely hates everything the Sith stand for. When he knows someone is a Sith and is near them he can’t stop himself from engaging them in combat or just finding some way to ruin their plans.
Tech- Tristram can use technology as well as the next person but the moment something goes wrong he is utterly worthless with it. He can’t slice his way out of a paper bag and he is better by far with saber than a plasma torch in his hands. His solutions to tech issues are either to scrap it or find someone else to fix it for him. This however does not apply to weaponry or the less techy side of armors as he is able to repair both well.
Emotional- Tristram is man of emotions. This detail is partly why he is so compassionate but it is also why he tends to explode into anger. While anger is the most likely of emotions for him to explode into, he feels all emotions aside from fear rather strongly. A calmer opponent who notices this detail can manipulate him easily using it.

APPEARANCE:
Tristram looks like a typical, somewhat tall human with pale skin at first glance, but there are a few noticeable features that speak of his mixed heritage. His eyes are yellow and his skin has a light blue tint to it when exposed to high levels of light. His hair can look black or dark blue depending on who is looking at him and how much light it is exposed to. His figure it muscular with several scars and burns all over. He keeps his hair around shoulder length and his beard rather trim. It is not unusual for both to be rather unkempt.
Tristram can normally be found wearing either more mobility focused armor or clothing made out of armorweave. His style tends towards function and modesty with little emphasis on fashion. Darker and neutral colors are what he tends to favor as well.
BIOGRAPHY:
Tristram’s story in life started off much like every other child taken from their parents at a young age to be trained as a Jedi. He grew up normally with his Pantoran mother and older brother while his human father worked as a trader and transporter. Then the Jedi came when he began to awaken to his sensitivity and his normal life was changed forever….
That is the story that Tristram tells to people he isn’t close with at least. The truth is very different. He did grow up with his mother and older brother while his father worked away from home. His mother however was not the regular Pantoran woman he makes her out to be but was from a noble Pantoran family. His human father met her while he was working around Pantora and eventually fled with her knowing she would never be allowed to marry him. The two started up their own trade and transport business with her doing the administrative work from home while he took care of the ship work. It was not always peaceful either as Tristram’s father was as much a compassionate rebel as his son. Smuggling desperately needed supplies into blockaded zones, smuggling people out or into places they couldn’t legally be, and just any other work that would help those in need. Plenty of close calls faced his parents but they always managed to get through it.
It was this kind of life that Tristram grew up in and thought was the one both him and his brother were meant to have. His awakening to the force ended this dream life for him. His mother was approached by Jedi and spoke with her. He did not know what it was about but thought his strange dreams and the odd things happening around him might be why. She sent them away the first time, but they continued to visit. She continued to turn them away. Things in the house became more and more stressed for his mother and got so bad his father turned down a high paying job to return home for her. The two had an argument one night after the Jedi visited, and on their next visit Tristram was forced to leave with them.
The last sight that Tristram ever saw of his parents was his mother crying into his father’s chest as he watched on with a mixed look of pride and sorrow on his face. He felt his heart sink away into nothingness for the first time in his life that day. His life followed the same path from there. He learned the ways of the Jedi and how to use the force. Again that was what he would tell someone but is not the entire story. He always had a rebelliousness to him that got him in trouble often as he would break rules for one reason or another. Later he would learn some wanted him to be expelled because they feared he would just turn to the darkside while others said he just needed to challenged more. Regardless of these arguments, when he was old enough and trained enough he was given a master.
Tristram’s master was an older Togruta woman. She seemed to be on the side of the argument thinking he just needed to be challenged more as her training for him was harsh. His body and mind were pushed to the brink as she drilled the ways of the Jedi into him. At first he disliked her for it but eventually came to understand why she did it. It took him a few years to sort it out however. Her training was not standard because of not just the intensity of it but also because she made him learn how to use more than a saber as a weapon. His training under her continued until he was nearly 20 years old. After a particularly rough mission he was promoted to the rank of knight.
Free finally from his master’s skirt, Tristram began to see how the Order truly was. They opposed the Sith but also fought amongst themselves. He saw less of a focus on their ideals and more on politics. This disgusted him as Jedi after Jedi died fighting battles they never should have fought or just simply turned into the Sith they should have opposed. He voiced this discontent with the direction of the Order, but it always seemed to fall on deaf ears. It was only his former master that took his words seriously. Eventually he hit the breaking point with his contempt for the Jedi Order as it fell apart and all their former allies seemed to turn against them. Roche, the direction of the Republic, and countless other events made up his mind. He left the order and never looked back.
Tristram went to find his family to reconnect with the only part of his life that made sense, his childhood. What he found however was a brother who had turned into a wanted criminal and his parents both dead. He never could discover why any of it had happened, but for the second time in his life he felt his heart sink away. He decided to turn to his master for advise on what to do next, but was met with much the same results as before. His master had died after he left in a fight with the Sith. He felt his heart sink away yet again and broke. He became a mess swearing he would slaughter all Sith.
For several years Tristram had fallen into a cycle of drinking until blacking out, waking up in a strange place, and then heading to drink again. Every time he needed money for drinks he would take whatever work he could get. It was a rough life and to this day he can’t remember much from that time of his life. His compassion and rebellious spirit was resparked one day when waking up in an ally, he discovered an officer harassing an elderly man. He stepped in to sort things out which ended up with the officer dead. A panic about took him over but the elderly man’s sincere thanks kept him from it. He remembered what it was he wanted his life to be when he was a child. He turned things around and became the Rogue and Rebel he dreamed of being as a boy.
