Just some ideas for traits for a Jedi Knight I may play in the next timeline. I've always wanted to play a knight but never got past the padawan stage, haha.
Anyway, the thought of a jedi who tortures himself to incite discipline and keep himself from the Dark Side is such a wonderful contradiction that I kind of want to run with it. And I do like playing troubled characters.
Anyway, these are random very rough thouggts about him so excuse repetitions and badly worded sentences. Just a copy and paste job from my notepad. :D
Thoughts, opinions appreciated!
Rhoub el-Ra
Young but wise, full faith in the council, quiet, strict and disciplined. Loner, uses coldness to keep others at an arm's length as he's afraid of emotional attachments. Father was Sith, killed mother in anger. Whenever Rhoub feels the dark side he hurts himself as the pain helps shut it out, using a leather bracelet strapped on his wrist, with sharp needles on the inside that digs into his wrist. Follows a strict disciplinary regimen of workouts, meditation, hard work and lightsaber training. Discipline his foremost character trait - he allows himself no pleasures, whether it is good food, alcohol, love, sex or joy. Very Spartan. Uses a long hilted, turqoise lightsaber. Likes to meditate in the wild by himself around the Jedi temple, away from his fellow knights. Reckless and aggressive in battle, using his aggressiveness, though one not fuelled by anger, to keep the other person on their toes. Self-sacrificing to protect his fellow jedi. His greatest fear is to cross over to the dark side. Suppresses emotions and trauma with pain, never touching on those feelings, ever. One step away from a broken psyche. Always a volunteer for dangerous missions, and blindly loyal to the Jedi Council.
