[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ Appearance[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent] Mo, as he is known by his closest associates has a dark peach complexion and black eyes with silver irises. Mokra's nose falls short of becoming a beak with a gaping hole that descends into his mouth, a toothless chasm with drooping fleshy strands. In place of teeth, Mokra has an upper and lower hard palate. Framing his head are extrasensory organs, which terminate in small black tusks next to his chin. As a Kel Dorian, Mokra wears an antiox breath mask and protective goggles. He cannot breathe oxygen, carbon dioxide or nitrogen, which are all fatal to him. He must breathe Helium and a gas unique to Dorin, his home planet. The mask also amplifies his voice when out of Dorin atmosphere.  Due to the extrasensory organs in his head, Mokra has heightened reflexes. As a racial trait, Mokra is considered quick and wise, but of a weaker constitution. Mokra can communicate with other Kel Dorians by using his mind in a form of telepathy. 

Mo wears molded body armor of a grayish blue hue with gray shoulder spaulders and ornate light gray gauntlets with fingerless black gloves, attached. He wears dark gray canvas britches with high black leather boots. Around his waist, is a black pistol belt and holster for his sidearm. The holster is hung low on his left hip to accommodate his dominant left hand. He has a coarse brown hooded cloak he occasionally wears. It is not always present, left on his hammock or in a closet. [/indent]


[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ Weltanschauung[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Mokra Tem is a polite, respectful and positive Kal Doran. He genuinely cares for others and works well in a team atmosphere. He may become enraged when he perceives harm done to others especially those who are closest to him, but he is generally calm, and cool. He works well with positive encouragement and fumbles when he feels he is overly criticized. The probability he will get something wrong increases when he makes mistakes. He is overly critical of his own actions; detrimentally affected more so than when others criticize him. Although, the words of others do have an effect on his behavior, he is actually quite confident. But even the most confident of people have doubts. [i]Encouragement promotes good deeds.[/i]

 Mo has an adventurous spirit, willing to take risks to overcome an obstacle or secure an objective. He can act impulsively if his confidence is up and he truly believes he is physically capable and mentally prepared to burst into action. His adventurous spirit has gotten him and accomplices into trouble from time to time, but his victories outweigh his failures.

His Kal Doran warrior spirit, tactically evaluates each scenario he encounters. He is constantly thinking of how he would attack or defend any structure. In the vastness of space, he imagines the potential outcomes of various scenarios based on all available information. He is constantly aware of his surroundings, ready to react if needed.

Mo is motivated by desire, both for his team and for his personal needs. If he is committed to a group, he is all in and prepared to help the group in any way possible. In his mind, if the group succeeds, Mokra Tem succeeds. He is not greedy, requiring excess, just enough to improve or be slightly comfortable. [/indent]

[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ History[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]39 BBY - Born on Dorin during a time of peace, Mokra's parents welcomed the young Force Sensitive infant into their lives. They knew as a toddler, he was strong with the force and would join the Baran Do Masters at the Kel Dor Enclave shortly after his fifth birthday as a Youngling student. His parents knew they would lose their son to the Jedi Order, but were confident he would serve Dorin and the Republic well, bringing great pride upon their family and people.

Mokra Tem never made it to the Baran Do Masters. Soon after he turned five years old, his parents died in an off-world accident. Mokra Tem was by their side to witness their tragic demise. He was taken in by an elderly couple and raised as their son with no intention of ever turning the youngling over to the Jedi Masters of the Kel Dor Enclave. Jun and Ro Tem named their adopted son Mokra, meaning [i]"gift from the heavens"[/i] and raised them as a Tem. He slowly lost all memory of his biological parents while adapting to his new living conditions.

The Tems cared for their new son as their own, cherishing their time with him. They taught him how to survive in a dangerous universe. He was instructed in the ways of the martial art form of the Dorin people. He even studied the use of bladed weapons as well as how to use a blaster. He found the blaster amusing, but preferred training and fighting with fists or with a blade than with the crudeness of a blaster.

When Mokra Tem was seven years old he knocked over a vase in his parent's house. It was a cherished artifact of some sentimental value. His mother, Ro Tem heard the vase break and yelled Mokra's name. Out of fear for being caught doing something wrong, Mokra wished himself invisible. The panic of the desperate moment coupled with a desire to be invisible, and his back to a wall, he successfully photo-kinetically bent light and sound waves around him, making himself invisible to his mother. She stood over him looking left and right; everywhere but at him. Mokra did not realize at first, she could not see him. He was simply frightened, saying nothing for several seconds. As Ro Tem gave up looking for him, Mokra revealed himself to her. The boy did not know she could not see him. He relaxed and his [i]cloak[/i] disappeared. She then learned he was standing in front of her the whole time. Both parent and child were shocked. They stood, staring at one another for at least a full minute.

"How did you do that, Mokra!?" Ro exclaimed as she dropped to one knee grabbing him by both shoulders.

The boy shook his head in anxious fear. He sobbed and shuddered, "I do not know, mother." He was frightened by both what happened to him and the unknown punishment his mother would certainly dole out.

Ro Tem observed the boy was frightened and honestly did not know what happened. Forgetting about the broken vase, she pulled Mokra close and gave him a warm loving embrace. She reassured her young son, that his well-being was more important than her husband's vase.

It is a racial trait of the Kel Dorians to communicate telepathically. Often, communication in the Tem household was silent. Mokra grew up accustomed to the silent communication of the Kel Doran people in his own home. Often when out in public, they would use voice communications. Mokra is quite comfortable and accustomed to telepathy amongst his own kind.

Once when he was 19 years of age, he was with a human friend on the planet, Coruscant. The pair of young men were imbibing alcohol at a local establishment and got into a fight with a pair of seedy Balosars. The local constabulary pursued Mokra and his friend across several city blocks. During a high stress moment, Mokra shouted to his friend telepathically. The human did not realize it was telepathic communication, but responded appropriately to Mokra's instruction. It wasn't until after they lost their pursuers they realized what happened. Mokra has not been able to repeat this ability since that rare moment. He has never forgotten that event.

As a young man, Mokra Tem learned everything there is to know about computers. He studied them daily and became quite proficient in several programming languages as well as how to bypass encryption codes and hack into secure servers. This skill has served him quite well in his adult life. He received formal training in computers as a teenager in school on the planet, Dorin.

After Mokra became an adult, he pursued a career as a pilot. He traveled to Coruscant to learn to fly. He trained on several different aircraft and space traveling vessels. He was eventually certified in most light and medium sized freighters as well as lighter single-seat aircraft. Although, he prefers to the smaller more agile vessel, he plies his skills as a pilot aboard freighters as a means to earn a living.

For the past decade, Mokra Tem has been travelling the known universe working for ship captains serving either as pilot, navigator or deck hand aboard various ships. He is currently serving Captain Mus Rosh, a Zabrak who owns an old Explorer-Class Armed Long-Range Scout Vessel. Occasionally, he serves as pilot, or as navigator, or helping to move cargo from point A to point B. As a result of some bad decisions, Mokra and his comrades are in trouble. Like the rest, he has a massive quantity of debt over his head. The Hutt overlord on Nar Shaddaa has inserted an explosive chip into Mo's head. If Mokra Tem and his mates do not pay off their debt, do not listen to the words of their Captain, Mus Rosh or step out of line in anyway, the chip can be command detonated. Mokra Tem has some concerns that the detonation device might be accidentally discharged. [/indent]


[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ Equipment[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Mokra Tem does wear armor, tailor fitted to him and paid for by his family. His father Jun Tem also gave his son a DL-18 Blaster Pistol as well as four replacement power packs. The boy acquired a curved finely folded steel sword with wood/leather scabbard while training in his teen years. The distinctive curved, slender, single-edged blade is 26" in length with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands. A few pouches are fastened along his gun belt to hold the power packs and other trinkets he has picked up along the way. His coarse brown hooded cloak he wears on planets with cold climates. Naturally, as someone so adept at using computers, Mo has a datapad as well as an interface tool in order to link in with closed systems.[/indent]

[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ Skills[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent][color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Computers.[/b][/color] Mokra understands several programming languages and coding. He can hack into servers protected by encryption codes. He has formal training in a school of computers on Dorin.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Martial Arts.[/b][/color] Mokra is proficient in the use of the Dorin unarmed combat style as well as the use of bladed weapons in personal combat.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Force Cloak.[/b][/color] Mo has an innate ability to use Force Cloak, but does not fully understand how to use it. With training from a Jedi, he might be able to put this ability to good use. For now, it is a nuisance that comes and goes, but is never available when he needs it.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Telepathy.[/b][/color] This is a racial trait to communicate with other Kal Dorians. He once spoke unintentionally to a human friend telepathically. This ability is another that could be refined with time and training with the help of an experienced Jedi Master.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Pilot.[/b][/color] Mokra can fly most medium and smaller space travelling vessels, but prefers smaller more agile craft to large cumbersome vessels.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Blaster use.[/b][/color] He has some experience with the use of a blaster. He can hit the broad side of a barn at a hundred paces, but has never fired one in anger nor has one been discharged in his general direction.
[color=Palegoldenrod][b]- Heightened reflexes.[/b][/color] As a racial trait, Mokra is considered quick and wise, but of a weaker constitution. He may appear muscular, but is slightly weaker than a comparable human counterpart.[/indent]

[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ General Notes[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent] Due to his genetic disposition for breathing Helium and a gas indigenous to his homeplanet, Mokra must wear a breathing apparatus when existing with other creatures who breath Oxygen and Nitrogen. This limitation only becomes hazardous/fatal when the mask is removed in an Oxygen/Nitrogen environment. If Mokra Tem's mask is knocked off and he is unable to retrieve it in several minutes, he will pass out. If someone else does not fit it to his face within several additional minutes, he will die.

Mokra has an additional racial/genetic disposition; over sensitivity to light and the harmful effects produced by stars and suns. Mokra wears dark goggles in order to shield these harmful effects. Without the goggles, Mokra would need to keep his eyes closed until the goggles can be returned to their proper position, during which time he would be completely blind. If his force sensitivity could be harnessed and trained properly, he might be able to use Force sense. But that is an ability for another place and time. [/indent]

[sub][color=wheat][b]Δ Relationships[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent] [color=orange][b]Grida Cairnu[/b][/color] - Mokra Tem has a bad feeling about Grida. The Rodian rubs Mo the wrong way. He has not been able to place his finger on in yet, but there is something suspicious about the little green scoundrel.

[color=c4df9b][b]Mus Rosh[/b][/color] - Mokra is not sure what to make of their ship's Captain. She seems like she might be a strong leader, but she works directly for the Hutt. He views her as a spy for the Hutt because she didn't get the explosive implanted under her flesh like the rest of the crew. His opinion of his immediate supervisor remains incomplete. He will give her time.

[color=lightgreen][b]Relloc Provnor[/b][/color] - Mokra Tem learned a long time ago, it is good to make friends with Mechanics and Medics. They will bail your ass out faster than a smuggler or a bounty hunter. Mo approves of the Corellian; they have the right chemistry. He enjoyed his story about repairing the hyperdrive by throwing a spanner wrench at it, just in the nick of time.

[color=0072bc][b]Rytthik Darhask[/b][/color] - Unsure what to make of him, Mokra attempts to keep Rytthik close. The man makes him curious, but doesn't care for the stand-offish behavior. Mo hasn't pummeled him with questions. That would be inappropriate. He simply observes him, just like he watches everyone else on the crew. The jury is still out on Rytthik Darhask.

[color=Mediumorchid][b]Xymone[/b][/color] - Xymone's infectious personality has rubbed Mokra Tem the right way. He is intrigued by her and respects her talents as a fighter. Her training and experience in unarmed combat and grappling combined with a muscular physique has morphed into a respected warrior; someone who should be held in the highest regard when a blaster is no longer practical. Mo enjoys hearing about Xymone's stories in Krat. He himself would love to have a go at it sometime. But not now. Her bubbly, friendly personality has won this Kal Dorian Pilot/Computer hacker over to her side. He even finds her attractive. The one aspect of Xymone's personality that Mo appreciates the most is her willingness to be a team player. It is a value they share, scoffing at those who would put their own needs ahead of the greater good. Although Mokra Tem is no fan of the Empire, he does what needs to be done in order to survive. The idea and prospect of a rebellion, growing to large enough a scale is unfathomable to Mo Tem. But Mo does get into his conversations with Xymone about the Empire, the possibility of a rebellion as well as the Jedi order and the Sith Lords. Personally, he views the Jedi has a whacky religious group that was obviously too weak to defend themselves against the overwhelming Galactic Empire.

[color=8C4E47][b]Rymi Ketres[/b][/color] - Mokra Tem is just meeting Rymi Ketres for the first time and has not formed an opinion of her yet. He is aware of her piloting skills and understands that the two may switch off duties in that department in order for either to get some rest from time to time. Mo does not assume anything. Experience dictates that even small creatures can exert dominance and possess skills one can only imagine.[/indent]
