[b]Bio: [/b] Sony was born on Coruscant into a family of force sensitives and was the eldest of three children. His father, Oku Vakarian, was a Jedi Knight (a Jedi Shadow to be specific) who’s duty was to seek out and destroy anything belonging to or in support of the Sith and its teachings. Sony rather expectantly was sent to the Jedi Academy at a young age and would go on to become his father’s apprentice. 

Growing up Sony showed great potential in regards to control over the force and was a great academic. His skill with a lightsaber was also of a good standard (mostly in part to the expectations and strict training of his father and family). As he got older his thirst for knowledge greatly grew and it was expected he would become a Consular, however as he began accompanying his father of missions this changed quickly. Oku taught Sony lessons that most Jedi would frown upon, telling him that the Jedi’s stoic nature was unnatural and that Sony should embrace his humanity. Sony also found that Oku would often study or even preserve some Sith artefacts; the very same ones that he would be tasked to destroy. Oku told Sony that it was the only way they could truly understand the Sith and the only true way they could preserve balance. 

Sony also began studying the darker side of the force, although with much caution and still held a firm belief in the light side of the force and the general Jedi beliefs. However he was careless around his friends when back at the Jedi Temple and some Knights became suspicious of his teachings, leading into an investigation of him and his father. Sony, unaware of the investigation, was requested to stay at the Temple for multiple missions. During which time the investigators discovered that Oku was studying the Sith artefacts and teachings, but due to unforeseen circumstances were not able to apprehend him and so he returned to Coruscant oblivious. 

Sony went to meet his father as he landed and witnessed two Jedi Knights, both he considered family friends, draw their lightsabers and cut his father down as he tried to resist arrest. Sony in a surge of absolutely blinding rage attacked the two knights, killing one and seriously injuring the other. Using his fathers shuttle to drive to another port, Sony smuggled himself aboard a freighter. He has been roaming the galaxy ever since learning what he can and trying to master the force. He has grown to hate the Jedi, and thinks that their devotion to the light side is just as unbalanced as the Sith. 

[b]Personality: [/b] Sony is in complete touch with his humanity, having shrug off a lot of his Jedi teachings and doing his best to keep balanced. As such he is not as stoic as a Jedi, but neither is he as sadistic or chaotic as a Sith. He tends to act seriously and has little time for games. 

[b]Skills/weapon(s) of choice: [/b] Sony has a standard orange lightsaber and he uses the Niman form. He is adept at using basic force techniques and will often utilise his anger whilst doing so; he can use force lightening but it greatly fatigues him. 

[b]Relationship?:[/b] Oku has a younger brother (Obi) and sister (Shi’an) on Coruscant, both of which are now in their very early twenties and are Jedi apprentices. He has no contact with them and does not know what they think of him. [/hider]
