STRENGTHS
Disciplined: Varthos’ dedication to mastering the Jedi arts demonstrates his disciplined nature. He approaches challenges with focus and precision, preferring to hone his skills methodically rather than relying on brute strength or improvisation.
Strategic: His training in Makashi highlights his analytical mind and ability to plan ahead. Whether in battle or diplomacy, he carefully evaluates situations to ensure the most effective and least destructive outcomes.
WEAKNESSES
Self-Doubt: Coming from a humble farming background, Varthos occasionally struggles with feelings of inadequacy, especially when comparing himself to Jedi legends or his more naturally gifted peers. This self-doubt can hinder his confidence in critical moments.
Idealism: While his compassion and values make him a strong moral leader, Varthos’s idealistic worldview can sometimes blind him to the harsher realities of the galaxy. He may place too much faith in others or expect solutions to always align with his principles.
HISTORY
Varthos Remarde was born into a modest family of shaak farmers on Naboo, where he grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of the planet. From an early age, he exhibited subtle signs of Force sensitivity, such as his ability to calm animals and sense changes in his environment. Discovered by a traveling Jedi, Varthos was sent to train with the New Jedi Order (NJO), leaving behind his family and the life he had known.
As a Padawan, Varthos excelled in lightsaber combat and developed a deep interest in Jedi history. Inspired by legends like Porter Engle and Count Dooku during his days as a Jedi, Varthos chose to specialize in Makashi, the elegant and precise dueling form. While his peers sometimes teased his old-fashioned preferences, Varthos saw Makashi as a philosophy of balance and control, ideals that resonated with his own disciplined nature. After years of training, he was knighted and began his journey as a Jedi, serving the galaxy with both skill and humility.
When Naboo fell into turmoil during the Cataclysm, Varthos felt compelled to return to his homeworld. There, he encountered the Order of Shiraya, a Jedi enclave dedicated to protecting Naboo and preserving its cultural heritage. Drawn to their mission, Varthos joined the Order, becoming a staunch figure thanks to his mastery of the Jedi arts and his deep connection to Naboo.
