[quote=@Zarkun] So, this whole sheet has been a long time in the works, but I am willing to work on it. Unfortunately, some of his stats will not have a clear explanation without some back story, but the interview didn't seem the right place to put that. Anyways, here he is! [hr] [hider=OoC] [b]How long do you usually write?[/b] One paragraph or less One to two paragraphs Several paragraphs All of the above, depending on the meat from the previous post. [b] Do you enjoy writing collaborative posts for things like conversations, combat, etc.? [/b] Immensely, though in combat I will sometimes get a touch overzealous and land blows I shouldn’t. I try to reign that in. [b] Is grammar and depth of writing important to you? [/b] Indeed, though grammar is above all. Depth of writing means nothing if I can read your first sentence and cringe every other word. [b] Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring? [/b] Not specific ones. I write to enjoy writing, even though I don’t always write a lot. [b] Is there anything you [i]really[/i] dislike and want to avoid like the plague? [/b] Not off the top of my head, but I’m sure it’ll come though. [b] Is there something you are uncomfortable with happening to your character? [/b] Nothing so long as I can have some foreshadowing and/or warning from the perpetrator. Surprises can be fun too, but no “SURPRISE! You’re dead” please. [b] Do you have any short-term or long-term goals with this character? [/b] Jedi Master, savior of...someone, maybe a fellow Pureblood, we’ll see how things pan out. A Battlemaster or Exotic Weapons Specialist would be good as well, though, which is up in the air. [/hider] [hider=Jedi Temple Public Records] [b] Name: Zhâlu Jenal [/b] [b] Species: Sith Pureblood[/b] [b] Homeworld: Dromund Kaas[/b] [b] Age: 39[/b] [b] Gender: Male[/b] [b] Rank: Knight[/b] [b] Master: None[/b] [b] Former master(s): Jedi Master Terrance Endarn[/b] [b] Apprentice(s): None for now[/b] [/hider] [hider=Jedi Temple Internal Records] [h3][sub]Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.[/sub][/h3] Standing at 2 meters tall with broad shoulders and well defined muscle, Zhâlu has deep crimson hued skin with glowing orange eyes, dark red hair and a single scar crossing his right eye. He bears many prominent features of the Sith Pureblood, most prominently his slightly ridged eyebrows and chin tentacles as well as the slight claws for fingernails. However, the humanity in him shows most in his hands, being five fingered instead of three. [h3][sub]Report on natural ability with the Force, as well as all known Force Techniques and the skill level.[/sub][/h3] While trained in a number of Dark Side techniques to great skill, including Force Choke and Lightning, he has both been forbidden from using them by the Council and forbidden himself from using them, as it would detract from his journey as a member of the Jedi Order. Skills that pertain to his position as a Jedi Knight are as follows: [list][*]Force Sight (Basic)-Advanced [*]Tutaminis(Intermediate)-Intermediate [*]Force Sense-Advanced [*]Precognition-Advanced [*]Mind Trick-Basic [*]Force Speed-Advanced, Trained Talent [*]Force Jump-Advanced, Trained Talent [*]Telekinesis-Advanced [*]Force Throw-Advanced [*]Force Healing-Basic [*]Animal Friendship-Intermediate [*]Force Bellow-Advanced, linked to Force Scream(Note: If he isn’t careful about the situation, this can slip into a Scream against his will.) [*]Droid Disable-Intermediate [*]Force Stun-Basic [*]Force Stasis-Basic [*]Malacia-Intermediate [/list] [h3][sub]Report on skills not directly rooted in the Force, including level of skill[/sub][/h3] During his time in the Sith Academy on Dromund Kaas and Korriban, Zhâlu was put through trials of survival, often left with little more than the clothes on his back, his training blade, and the power of the Force. The predators of these worlds are dangerous and the flora not much less so. Simply put, survival in the wilderness became second nature for the young Pureblood and he can identify most edible plants on sight alone. He’s also learned how to cook these items, though most of his peers in both Jedi and Sith order would say the dishes could be better, but still aren’t bad. [h3][sub]Report on known combat experience, training and lightsaber training[/sub][/h3] It is clear that during his time as a Sith, his training was focused on Juyo and how to use it with his choice of a saberstaff over one or two single bladed weapons. This training has continued within the Order, but it had been noticed that he’s begun forming his own off-shoot of the form, combining the use of both sides of the staff and only one, while also incorporating Jar’Kai movements as well. He was able to provide records of battles he partook in prior to the Sacking of Coruscant and prior to his joining the Jedi Order, showing his skill in lightsaber combat against fellow lightsaber wielders. [h3][sub]Detailed notes on political influence and associates. [/sub][/h3] Having switched sides, his only political influence anywhere is incredibly negative, as most Jedi and Republic Troopers believe that most of what he says is a lie. [h3][sub]Detailed notes on known rivals and enemies, outside and within the Order and Republic.[/sub][/h3] None, unless you count the Masters and Knights who spoke out against his joining the Order. Darth Braxis, his former Master before his defection to the Jedi Order and the Republic, has sworn a bloody death upon his former apprentice and all who support him. [h3][sub]List and description of other known associates, including intimates.[/sub][/h3] None [h3][sub]List of all known ownerships, including vessels, (non-standard) equipment, and locations.[/sub][/h3] S-12 Blackbolt (Impounded), NovaDive(currently in a hangar on Tython’s surface), Double-bladed Lightsaber with twin blue blades with white cores, Jedi armored robe and spare clothes(stored in his fighter) [h3][sub]Psychological evaluation of Jedi Order member.[/sub][/h3] Despite his previous affiliation with the Sith Empire and his natural disposition to the Dark Side due to his being a Sith Pureblood, Zhâlu is shown to keep his emotional state in check and resists the temptation to use the dark powers he was taught by his Sith teachers. Regardless, despite his standing with the Order as a Knight for several years, he is known to let emotions affect some of his decisions if they are strong enough. [h3][sub]List and description of known and suspected flaws. Access Restricted.[/sub][/h3] [i][b]Known Flaws[/b][/i] [list][*]Emotional-Despite a strong sense of morality and claiming true loyalty to the new life he has chosen, he has emotional outbursts that stem from his nature as a Pureblood. [*]Aggressive-Reprieve for friend and foe is unlikely when he takes the field and he often becomes overly aggressive during combat and training as well. [*]Torn-While he has greatly enjoyed his time with the Jedi, he is still a Sith Pureblood who’s species is slowly dying out. That knowledge alone often haunts him at the worst times.[/list] [i][b]Suspected[/b][/i] [list][*]Driven by Anger-With so many Jedi so strongly against his joining the Order, some Masters suspect that he allows his anger to help him focus, anger at the mistrust placed on him even after purifying his lightsaber crystal [*]Lustful-Knights and Masters have seen him give members of the Order of opposite gender strange looks and suspect he may be lusting after them, despite the Jedi Code. [*]Self-Doubting-Despite all his other suspected flaws, a choice few members of both the Order and the Jedi High Council suspect that he doubts his ability to stay true to the path of the Jedi because of who he is.[/list] [h3][sub]known interests of the force-user.[/sub][/h3] Has shown great interest in expanding his knowledge of the Light Side of the Force, specifically healing. [h3][sub]Notes on skillset specialization, if applicable.[/sub][/h3] [hider=Note from Battlemaster Theresa Tersil]I write this report after watching the Pureblood train for a few days. He possesses many of the skills necessary to become a Battlemaster and, given time and training, could learn those he’s missing. His only failing is his temper, but I trust that will get better with time.[/hider] [h3][sub]Major achievements on record.[/sub][/h3] Purification of a tainted Kyber Crystal Helped detain a rogue Sith Lord during a scouting mission in which his unit was discovered. Named a Jedi Knight after passing the Trials and proving his loyalty and adherence to the Jedi and their Code. [h3][sub]Major failures on record. Confidential.[/sub][/h3] Lashed out against Jedi Master Terin Kern in frustration, severing his hand. Struck out in anger against a Padawan who persisted in trying to draw a reaction from him. Failed the Knight Trials twice. [hider=Interview] [h3][sub]”I understand that many members of the Order have...reservations about my becoming a Knight. Many feel that my purified crystal was taken from another Jedi I’d killed, even though two members of the High Council and a Jedi Shadow observed me as I purified it. I suppose joining the Order two months before the Sacking didn’t help my credibility any, but I wasn’t even near Coruscant when it occurred, nor was I allowed on the capital world leading up to the attack. Still, it’s incredibly frustrating and twice my request to be given a Padawan has been denied. Once on the grounds that I wasn’t ready, and the second time because the master handling the request simply did not want me “poisoning a young mind,” as she put it. I have poured all I am into proving I am a Jedi, but it still is not enough.” A sigh can be heard. “Perhaps it never will be, but I will never stop trying to prove I am. What the Empire is doing is wrong, and I refuse to let them keep doing it, whatever that may take.”[/sub][/h3][/hider] [/hider] [/quote] You've reached out to the GMs a few times regarding the idea, and Sith Pureblood Jedi is cool, but you'll have to earn it. We'll need a more robust Interview for him. You need to tell us the story of why and how he became a Jedi. I'd, personally (and as PW admin & PC Jedi Grand Master), rather you PLAY OUT that story than jump into it. If he's already at Knight...he's already lived that story. That seems bad. I'm not sure the GM team wants the first Sith Pureblood Jedi to SKIP the best part of that story and include it in briefly glanced upon back story, they'd much prefer it either gets played out or that the backstory for it is really written out. If any of that makes sense?
