When he is, however, one could see his dark-brown hair, kept short to fit under a helmet, his green eyes fairly clear complexion and very lightly tanned skin. [b]Weapons:[/b] Valdis carries a Vibrosword that he wields in conjunction with a custom blaster pistol when he is not using his Yellow-bladed Lightsaber pike. Additionally his ship holds a small arsenal that he could choose from depending on his mission. He also kept the saber of his fallen friend but it is meant more as a memento than a weapon.

He excels against other melee fighters or saber-wielding opponents and relies on force powers or personal shields if available to counter blaster fire. His force powers are focused on enhancement or barriers rather than offensive capability as well as being able to resist the influence of other force users. His few offensive abilities are Force suppression and the devastating Force Breach technique. [b]Background:[/b] Valdis was born during a complicated series of events that led to the death of his parents and the ship they were on crashing on a planet that held a Mandalorian settlement. Fortunately for him the clan that found him in the wreckage took him in and raised him as their own, though his adopted father held on to a datapad containing information from his birth. Valdis, known to his clan as Adann, set out on his own sometime before his clan was called to serve Mandalore, becoming mercenary and using the repaired remains of his parent's vessel. At one point he was hired by a rather practical Jedi, Valdis still isn't sure if it was coincidence or not really, who over the course of their time together revealed his force sensitivity to him and convinced him to come to the Jedi temple for training. He had trouble with his lessons, being older than normal for an apprentice didn't help, but between what progress he did make and his martial prowess he was selected as a candidate to become a Temple Guard. As one he was expected to deal with internal threats as much as external, and as such some of his study shifted accordingly. His decision to join Revan's crusaders came not from his own desire to fight the Mandalorians but from the very same Jedi that brought him to the order, whom he'd come to consider his only friend within the order. He'd followed the knight to war, but after Revan's demise and the collapse of the Republic army he saw her fall. He took on his Mandalorian Identity to survive. He posed as one of the attackers during the siege on the temple where he discovered the plans to create the enclaves and even took steps to ensure the information stayed out of Mandalorian hands. He waited just over a year before seeking them out, searching for one headed by a master whose name he recognized from Revan's forces: Luthor Antilles [/hider] [hider=Atan Khaal] [b]Name:[/b] Atan Khaal [b]Species[/b]: Human [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] 56 [b]Height:[/b] 6'7" [b]Weight:[/b] 210 lbs [b]Class:[/b] Zeison Sha warrior [b]Position:[/b] Discblade instructor/Zeison Sha Emissary [b]Primary Strengths:[/b] Telekinetic force abilities, Hand-to-hand combat [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://pre11.deviantart.net/14e2/th/pre/f/2015/055/2/5/cyber_monk_by_tatarskiskandal-d8jeaf7.jpg[/img] [b]Weapons:[/b] Atan carries a discblade with him as well as his pair of custom lightring sabers. [b]Armor/Clothing/Equipment:[/b] Atan's body has been largely repaired with cybernetics and prostheticsand over time he further modified his cybernetics body with blaster and lightsaber-resistant materials, jump jets to assist his mobility, and an energy shield projector in his left arm. [b]Skills/Abilities:[/b] Atan's mastery of telekinetic abilities rival, and in most cases surpass, that of even the most powerful jedi, capable of wielding it with minimal effort and even when under great stress. Atan is also a highly skill hand-to-hand fighter, the lightsaber-resistant body allowing him to take on saber-wielding opponents even when unarmed. He uses his lightrings and discblade as his main form of ranged attack, using his telekinetic abilities to alter their trajectories and have them return after being thrown, but he will sometimes use them when facing multiple armed opponents in melee on his own. [b]Background:[/b] Atan was born in the outer rim of the galaxy, where his force abilities would quickly be discovered and he'd find him self being trained under one of the Zeison Sha tutors, He would go one to become one of their best warriors. He remained in the outer rim living a fairly normal life, albeit while acting as a protector for smaller settlements alongside some of his fellow Zeison Sha and occasionally being responsible for dealing with a Dark Zeison Sha. Sometime during the Mandalorian wars he received severe injuries while defending a settlement from a Mandalorian attack. He was dragged away by his fellow warriors and treated for his injuries, most of his body having to be repaired with cybernetics, He only completely recovered after the republic's defeat. Feeling that the Zeison Sha could not stand by while the Mandalorians ruled he rallied his fellows to form a resistance. Upon hearing stories of the jedi enclaves and their resistance he attempted to convince his Zeison Sha brothers that they should join them, if only to depose the Mandalorians. His disdain for the Jedi was less so the his fellow warriors' as evidenced by the lightring sabers he had created during his training, a slight merging of their two traditions, but he nevertheless managed to persuaded and so they sought them out in the first way that came to mind: Claiming they were already a part of it and causing as big of a ruckus as possible. it was risky but it worked as they were eventually contacted and found their way to the enclave outpost on Valkaina.
