NAME: Anto Varyse (ahn-toe vahr-eese)
FACTION: The Jedi Order
RANK: Jedi Knight
SPECIES: Anzati
AGE: 275
GENDER: Male
HEIGHT: Tall for an Anzat at 6'3
WEIGHT: 100
EYES: Dark brown
HAIR: A black that is highlighted red in sunlight, but pitch black in the dark. Common among feral Anzati.
SKIN: his Anzati genetics provide for pale, slightly gray skin.
CREDITS: 1,000
DISTINGUISHING MARKS: All Anzati have long, thin proboscises hidden in pouches in their cheeks used in the extraction of "soup." Anto keeps his hidden at almost all times, and while hidden, an Anzat's face is indistinguishable from an human's, except for slightly more bulbous noses, and flared nostrils.

He has extensive burn scarring all over his chest, stomach, back, and upper arms.
DOMINATE HAND: Right
FORCE SENSITIVE: Yes.

STRENGTH: As strong as perhaps a track and field star, but by no means abnormally so. 4/10
DEXTERITY: His light weight and quick Anzati reflexes made him agile far beyond most Jedi. 9.5/10
CONSTITUTION: As a result of his slight bone structure and weak neral pathways, he is quite easily injured. 2/10
INTELLIGENCE: Very intelligent, perhaps genius. 7.5/10
WISDOM: Anto possesses a rather unique insight into the Force as an Anzat, and sees aspects of it that most do not. This said, he is not particularly wise in most areas. 4/10
CHARISMA: Anto is himself rather quiet and withdrawn, and were it not for his natural and, to an extent, subconscious telepathic abilities, people would likely not care for him. But his telepathy manifests on its own, so that people very easily see his point of view and agree with it. 7.5/10

FORCE POWERS:
Force Push
Force Pull
Affect Mind
Burst of Speed
Force Heal
Force Aura


SKILLS:
Persuasion, Hand-to-hand combat, can sense the strength of others' connections to the Force.

LIGHTSABER/SWORD FORMS:
As all Jedi, Anto has been instructed in basic Shii Cho. But his preferred and most proficient form is dual saber Ataru. His natural agility has allowed him to excel in form IV. His Ataru is more defensive than most though, as he is so easily injured.

He is also quite proficient in unarmed combat, emphasizing speed over strength.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Anto's speed is doubtless his greatest strength. His agility and flexibility have developed his Ataru combat into something that few could duplicate exactly. He suffers from a rather common Anzati birth defect which makes his bones porous. While this is the source of his unmatched agility, it also results in his bones being broken VERY easily, and limits his strength. This birth defect also affects his neural pathways, making them hyper-sensitive. While his senses are heightened, he has a lower threshold of pain than most, and is extremely susceptible to Force Lightning.

His predatory nature as an Anzat is constantly at odds with the Jedi Code. In battle, he is often overcome by his hunger, and has some serious dark side tendencies as a result.

He has a crippling phobia of fire.

GEAR:
Anto wears a lightweight, tight-fitting black variant of Jedi robes. Their billow is minimal, and allows for maximum maneuverability. Underneath these, he wears a light layer battle armor. While armor is usually frowned upon by the Jedi Council, espousing combat too much, Anto is allowed it because of his frailty.

He carries his two violet lightsabers; one shoto, and one standard; usually attached in a cross formation on the back of his belt, hidden by his robes.

A comm link.

Some extra lightsaber crystals for different situations.

SHIP:
No ship. He utilizes Jedi Fighters when needed.

PETS:
No pets.

PERSONALITY:
Anto is very quiet, valuing observation more than interaction in most aspects. His Anzati mindset values this, as a predator must always know his prey. He tries to fight his Anzati hunger for "soup," but during battle, he often uses his hunger to make him a fierce combatant, always stopping short of feeding, though it is difficult. The Jedi Council sees this, and is rather wary of him for it. They like him, as most do (due to his subconscious telepathy, mostly), but they keep him at arm's length from missions they feel could tip his balance toward the Dark Side. Anto understands this, and doesn't begrudge them for it, viewing himself as something of a trained animal. His expression is often one of tranquility, as he often meditates to try to control his base impulses.

HISTORY:
His parents were smugglers, and vicious killers. As an infant, his parents were killed by Jedi Knights during a Jedi investigation of a Coruscanti smuggling ring. The Jedi that killed his parents found him and recognized his potential. They took him to the Temple on Coruscant.

Early in his training, he was sparring with one of his instructors and his training saber short-circuited. It sparked, and his robes ignited in a burst of flame. Before his instructor could douse the flames, Anto had been burned significantly over his torso, resulting in his scars, and his intense fear of fire.

He excelled early on in lightsaber and unarmed combat. His proficiency in Ataru outstripped that of his peers significantly.

He has had a relatively uneventful history in the Order thusfar, there being a few blemishes on his reputation due to his Anzati lineage, and his dark side tendencies, namely, his relishing of combat.

In the force, his telepathic skills are incredibly powerful for a Knight of his stature, enhanced by his naturally powerful Anzati abilities. Due to his frailty, he has focused on the more defensive aspects of the Force, such as Heal and Aura. His use of Burst of Speed coupled with his own speed, can reduce him to nothing more than a blur.



Sorry for not having a picture. I'll hopefully find one I like soon.

If I did anything wrong, please tell me. I'm mildly experienced with RPs, but mostly completely freeform ones, so it can take some time for me to adjust to rule systems such as the one here.

Oh, and hi. I'm sans Delilah.


EDIT: In going through the site, I'm confused as to how one actually becomes a jedi...

Could someone clarify this for me?

I'm planning on editing Anto pretty massively to give him a bit more history and personality. Any tips or critiques would be greatly appreciated.

(^_^)

When I edit, I'll also iron out him being a Knight, since he apparently can't be yet, right?
