Jacob Richter


Jacob Rheinhard Richter, often called Jake, was a male Human Sith Legionnaire and far-right activist in The Force Eternal era.

Born on Desevro into relative poverty, Richter served in the planet's security forces and later held the rank of Captain in the Tionese military. Confident and charismatic, he was linked to extremist elements on his homeworld throughout his early years and subsequently became the poster boy for isolationist and xenophobic campaigns in the region.

Finding much to fuel his beliefs in the teachings of the Sith Eternal, Richter reached out to their shadowy organisation following the discovery of his Force sensitivity. Travelling to a number of worlds including Korriban, Vjun and Dagobah, he trained with a number of fellow Sith and his militaristic bent led to his induction into the Eternal Legion.

Possessed of an absolute conviction that much of the galaxy must be made over and purged of weakness, he was a dangerous young man completely committed to his cause.


Biography

Richter was born to struggling parents on the Outer Rim world of Desevro. An ancient planet long since having fallen into steep decline, its people were fiercely proud and had little but hate for outsiders. Raised in a crucible of want and decay, Richter was quickly taken in by the strident views of his elders and the hate and resentment ran deep in his community.

Bright and charismatic by nature, Richter quickly became the leader of his group of friends and over the years became increasingly well known in the grimy backstreets of the capital Maslovar. He stood side by side with his parents and others as they fought to build a better future for local people, and watched as infighting and poor leadership led them to fail every time. He listened closely to those with vision but no voice, those with ideas that were shouted down only because they couldn't make them heard. Joining in the protests and riots of his teenage years, he did all he could without getting caught.

His burning desire to do something significant, to change things, led him to join the capital's security forces and later a branch of the Tionese military. Though he found no outlet for his brand of politics in service, the uniform and training gave him the credibility to take his place at the forefront of the community. He became a passionate, young voice for hardline change, founding the first organised society for humanocentric Desevrars that would in a few short years become a major political force.

Doing all of it with a smile, Richter built a strong network of friends and allies across the Tion Cluster and beyond and turned many to his cause. This circle of comrades enabled him to retain his military post despite his divisive political persona and provided cover for him to explore his latent Force sensitivity.

Coming into his powers quite unexpectedly, Richter quickly made them a further tool in his persuasive arsenal and reached out to the Sith immediately for help in achieving his aims. Beginning to study the dark side, he travelled to Korriban, Vjun and Dagobah in an effort to understand the nature of his connection to the Force and what it meant for him and his destiny. Finding more than he could have dreamed, he began to expand his desire for radical change beyond his homeworld to the galaxy at large.


Personality & Traits

Jacob Richter was a combination of passion and conviction.

He was deeply passionate about everything. His purpose, his beliefs, his friends, his lovers. With his charismatic smile and sarcastic sense of humour, he learnt early on on that the best way to survive was to get others to like you, or better yet, love you. He was as forceful with his friends as he was his enemies, pursuing all human relationships intensely and making bonds that were seldom broken. A flirt with both men and women and often drunk on the pulse of the Force, few could turn him down.

Beneath the cocky exterior however lied a unshakable conviction. Confident and convinced of his own righteousness to the point of arrogance, Richter's total self-assurance meant he rarely shouted about his beliefs until he took the stand, whether on the street corner or in front of his fellow comrades. Once he did, no one could doubt he was a young man of real belief and vision, prepared to kill to make his dreams a reality.

Skills, Abilities & Powers



A trained soldier, and subsequently Sith Legionnaire, Richter's skills included:

  • Lightsaber Proficiency - trained by a number of Sith following his induction as a Legionnaire, Richter was a capable bladesman, his physical conditioning and vicious, impassioned approach to destroying his enemies lending itself to an aptitude for Form V: Djem So. Prone to denigrating his opponents often and loudly, he was also notable for laughing wildly in the midst of combat.

  • Force Powers - Richter was a competent Force user, skilled in most common uses of the Force. He was particularly known for his very physical, often brutal use of telekinesis to grip and crush opponents, or pin them against walls or floors for interrogation. He was also reported to employ aspects of mental manipulation at public rallies and political meetings.

  • Military Service - spending time in both law enforcement on his homeworld and the Tionese military, Richter was generally in peak physical condition, though was stronger than he was fast. A competent investigating officer, starfighter pilot and deck officer, he had a good general knowledge of related areas.
