BIOGRAPHY
Korsak was born to a family of Amaran farmers on the agriworld of Tanaab, the runt of a very large litter. His father was a barely functioning drunk, his mother a mousey enabler, and his siblings a mixture of victims and perpetrators of abuse. What little solace the boy found was in wandering the far open fields of his homeworld and digging up the 'magic' artifacts that spoke to him. He initially tried to share the whispering artifacts with his siblings, but one crooked ear and a black eye later, Korsak learned to keep his magic to himself. In reality Korsak's 'magic' was psychometry, a rare ability in the Force, and his artifacts were remnants of the Sith presence on Tanaab from eons past.
As Korsak and the abuse he suffered grew, he buried himself deeper in his explorations of Tanaab's dark past. As his psychometric power and obsession grew, the soft whispers and hazy visions of his artifacts became clearer, and soon led him to even greater treasures. Sometimes he would not return home for days, and instead wander the hills of Tanaab guided by the memories of the dead. This was what drew the Sith Eternal to Tanaab, and to Korsak. Initially posing as archeologists, the Eternal Guardians took an immediate interest in the grim young Amaran that seemed to know the location of every ruin and relic in the area by heart. When his powers became apparent, he was offered a choice: join the Sith Eternal or languish on Tanaab forever. An easy decision to make.
Unfortunately, Korsak's experience with the Sith Eternal has been less-than-ideal. From brutal maimings to the cult-like mentality of the organization, Korsak's work with the Eternals has done more to shake his faith in the organization than preserve it. However, with open conflict between the Eternal and the rest of the galaxy seeming inevitable, Korsak knows that his options are limited, and the Sith remain his best option going forward.

PERSONALITY
Korsak has spent his entire life feeling trapped, by his family, by Tanaab, by his lack of understanding of the greater galaxy. After joining the Sith Eternal his ambitions and his curiosity have exploded into a borderline obsession with exploration and learning. This, combined with his quiet and thoughtful demeanor, can make him seem benign, almost harmless in his pursuits. A fatal error few ever get a chance to repeat. While Korsak isn't as outwardly threatening or aggressive as other Guardians, he has no qualms killing anyone he believes might get in the way of his true goal: to lay bare the secrets of the galaxy and, once he has mastered them all, truly be free.
Unfortunately the loss of his right arm, among other injuries and embarrassments, has fueled a sense of clawing anger and resentment, particularly towards his fellow Eternals. While he remains loyal to the organization, this is more due to a lack of other options than faith in the cult's creed.

SKILLS
While being a poor farmhand didn't give Korsak many opportunities for education growing up, after joining the Sith Eternal he's absorbed every scrap of information he can get his paws on. He has studied a wide range of history, philosophy, culture, and science, although mostly related to the Force and Force sensitive groups. He has experience, not necessarily formal training, with archeology and investigation as well. Korsak's rural upbringing has made him less skilled with many common galactic devices like speeders, ships, and even datapads, but he has a knack for survival in the wilderness and a way with animals even without the Force. Korsak is trained in Form III lightsaber combat, which he primarily uses to protect himself while he uses the Force to attack or flee. He speaks Basic and understands the Sith language, both written and spoken.
FORCE POWERS
Korak has spent much of his time since joining the Sith Eternal training and studying his Force abilities such as telekinesis, mental manipulation, enhancement, and extrasensory perception. This have given him a wide range of powers and high stamina for a being of his size, but this lack of specialty makes his individual techniques weak. One ability he has spent a great deal of time perfecting, however, is psychometry, the power that allowed him to enter the Sith Eternal in the first place.
