The Shadow
I admit you won’t see me again
My end is desperately engaged
Dark, departed, hollow
You see I'm just a shadow
This ravenous beast is chasing shame
A shadow he remains

Species: Human

Rank: Grand Master
Preferred Weapon: Lightsaber
COMPOSITION AND APPEARANCE:
Quentell is a Human male of about 1.77m in height. He has long hair. It was once dirty blonde but it is starting to become grey. He has a beard and a moustache. Although he looks older, his eyes still show youth and the lust for adventure.
His body is scarred due to the tortures during his imprisonment on Nal Hutta. Across his face is also a scar he received from the tortures. See history for an explanation.
Quentell often wears his mercenary clothing, even when he is in the enclave. He doesn’t wear his traditional Shade Robes anymore, unless he is attending special meetings or ceremonies.
PERSONALITY:
Quentell is a friendly person. He enjoys a good laugh, but he can be very serious when he needs to. He has a lot of experience and he knows much. He is a very wise man, but when he doesn’t need to act wise he acts more joyful and humoristic.
His humor is a bit dry, sometimes even cynic, but most people can laugh about it.
Quentell has great control over his anger and his Dark Side. He uses his Dark Side for the Light and he seems to have learned how to be resistant to the Dark Side. He never falls for it, though he has in his youth. When in combat he taps into his Darker Side and Anger and he uses it to defeat his enemies and protect himself and his allies and the innocent.
LIKES AND DISLIKES:
There is a lot that he likes and even more he dislikes. He dislikes hypocrite politicians and he dislikes outlaws. He doesn’t like it when people shout orders at him and he hates it when people treat him like he is nothing.
He likes traveling and adventuring and he enjoys training new Padawans. He has great interest in the Force and he studies it, even now he is a Master. He likes lightsabers and the way they are build and work. He also likes spacetraveling, for it is such an excitement.
Quentell also loves to talk about his past adventures and so he often comes with bold tales. Many people believe him on his word and his stories are always true. He never makes up parts to make it sound better.
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Quentell is an adept in the lightsaber form: Form V: Shien/Djem So. He is a talented swordsman and he is very good with Force Powers. He combines his lightsaber and his Force Powers in battle and this makes him a tough opponent. He knows when to engage an enemy and he knows when to run or surrender. He thinks there is no shame in surrendering, however, betrayal is very shameful indeed.
He also can handle ranged weapons amazingly well, and when on missions, he often carries his trusted Blaster Pistol with him. He usually first draws his pistol before drawing his lightsaber, though his saber is his preferred weapon.

HISTORY
Part I
~Origins~
Part I
~Origins~
Born to Maxil Xall and Rosannè Xall on Gyndine in the capital city Yractos. Maxil was the owner of a cantina and his mother was a teacher at the local school. She taught Galactic Basic Standard, the most-used language throughout the galaxy.
Quentell was a boy like any other. He enjoyed the stories his father told him almost every evening, stories about bold adventurers who had visited his cantina. He played with his friends and he lived a normal life. Until he was discovered.
A Jedi visited Yractos for business that concerned only him, and he, somehow, sensed a strong Force Presence nearby. He searched and finally found the then nine years old Quentell Xall. After a very long discussion with the parents, Quentell was taken by the Jedi to the Jedi Order to be trained in the Ways of the Force.
~Jedi Padawan~
Xall as a Jedi Padawan…
Xall as a Jedi Padawan…
A master was assigned to Quentell soon after the young boy joined the Jedi. His master was Jacob Spiren, a bold Jedi Knight always looking for adventure, and thus he took his padawan on many adventures and missions.
In the beginning Xall was a very eager student. He listened to his master’s teachings and never questioned his master’s words. He believed that his master was always right and that he knew what was best for the both of them.
On a certain day, Quentell had reached age nineteen and neared completion of his training, Spiren and his padawan embarked on a mission to a Rogue world, far away from Ossus. Spiren had sensed a disturbance in the Force coming from there, and without asking for permission over at the high council, he went there together with his apprentice. Typically Spiren.
Upon arrival they were welcomed by an older man, of the Human species. He had a grey beard but a bald head. He greeted the two Jedi warmly but Spiren doubted that this man could be trusted. He did not know that anyone lived on the Rogue world they were on.
The man invited them to stay in his cottage and at first Spiren declined but Quentell thought it was better to accept the offer. In the end Spiren agreed and the Jedi stayed with the old man for a few days.
The old man spoke to Quentell a lot, something that Spiren did not like to see. Something was wrong with this man and it seemed he was playing with Quentell’s mind.
~Fall To The Dark Side~
Xall, after falling to the Dark Side…
Xall, after falling to the Dark Side…
It was soon discovered that this strange hermit was what caused the disturbance Spiren felt. The hermit was a Dark Jedi and he had been pulling Quentell towards the Dark Side of the Force. This Dark Jedi hermit had set the padawan up against his master and Spiren was forced to defend himself against his own student. Quentell was driven by the Dark Side, and he was blinded. He only fell because the hermit had managed to make him believe that the Dark Side was the ultimate power. The hermit was good with words and with a strong Force Persuasion, Quentell was turned.
Master and apprentice dueled and finally, Spiren struck down his apprentice. After Quentell was stricken down to the ground the hermit appeared and he cast a strong and deadly wave of lighting at Spiren, and the good Jedi Knight was forced to flee, for this hermit seemed to be twice as powerful as Spiren was. He fled back to the Order, telling the masters his padawan had died on a dangerous mission.
Then the hermit continued to teach Quentell the ways of the Dark Side of the Force. Quentell had to call him The Elder and the two soon set off for Duro where they visited a tainted tomb. Here they meditated and Quentell found his inner Darkness. He felt the power and to succumb to it, he felt he had to strike down The Elder in cold blood. He activated his green lightsaber and killed off his former master.
After the kill in cold blood he collapsed and when he woke up hours later he realized what had happened. He was not a Dark Side follower, he was Quentell Xall. A Jedi. He fled from the tomb and collapsed from exhaustion in the woods. He then was found by a small party of hunters who took him to a nearby settlement where Quentell was treated in the medical bay.
