Marcus Teinus (Redone)

Composition and Appearance:
The first thought that comes to one's mind when one looks at Marcus is the thought about how terribly ugly the young man's face is. His face is lopsided with a crooked nose that was broken when it was broken from a punch by a bully that he stood up against when the bully was mistreating him. An unnatural gray is the color of his eyes, and they have black roots escaping his pitch black pupils. The mouth, nose, and ears are overgrown for his face which makes his already seemingly hideous face even look even worse. A tainted scar ruins from his right ear to his right side of his lip, and another scar splitting his left eyebrow from when he fell and hit his head on a stone step. His hair reaches his shoulders and is neatly held together into a ponytail by a piece of black string.

The young man is five-eleven and weighs one hundred and fifty pounds. The young man hates to exercise expect when he practices with his sword; this behavior results in him being fairly weak and not muscular. A black robe is always worn by him with the hood up in order to hide his facial features because he is very self-conscious. Beneath the robe, their is usually light brown short tucked into a pair of black paints with a light brown belt. A pair of dark brown combat boots are always worn by him. On his back he always carries a long sword and an old but well-kept blaster rifle, both of which wear given to his father when he left home. Marcus, however, is looking forward to exchange those weapons for a lightsaber.​
Personality:
Marcus has a dual personality with both fighting a constant war to be the dominant personality of their owner. The first one is a kind, determined, merciful being that can be trusted and loved by anyone. This side has always been in power because his father and his mother have always nurtured that type of behavior in their household. On the occasion, his other face appears, an abomination of hate and malice. This face is the definitive representation of the evil of men.

Marcus has always enjoyed music, nature, and practicing swordsmanship. Because of his incredible enjoyment of fascination with the ancient craft of war, his father spent what little extra money he had to hire a swordmaster to teach his son the art. Money has never been desired by the young man but power is desired by him. The desire for power is one of the reasons why Marcus desires to become a Jedi and strengthen his sensitivity to power. He also wants the ability to change the world, but he does not care if it will be a change for the good or bad so long as it is a change.​

Likes and Dislikes:
Silence is one of Marcus's greatest tools in a conservation because he is able to observe very well. Another reason for Marcus's silence is the fact that he has difficulty speaking well, but if he has enough time to decide upon his speech he is a very effective speaker. Drinking, sex before marriage, and foolishness are three things that the young man will not tolerate regardless of the situation.

Marcus agrees with war because he thinks that words are weak and a million for a penny, but actions are rare and expensive, and, if one truly wants to learn of the motifs of a person or group, he or she must look at the actions of the identity. Though Marcus is a good learner and enjoys learning, he hates reading and studying and envies everyone that has the patience to study anything for longer than a few minutes.​

Strengths and Weaknesses
Marcus is well-trained in swordsmanship, but his lack of strength and dexterity makes him no better than an average apprentice of the sword. While he is not exactly good at swordsmanship, he rarely if ever gives up making him a dangerous opponent because he will die before give up on most circumstances. The Force is always with him, but he is unable to use it without any training, and no teacher has taught him yet. Determination is a strength, but this fact makes him as stubborn as a mule. Marcus has difficulty admitting that he is wrong and apologize though he does normally recognized when he is wrong. His dual personality makes it difficult for him to be with someone because his partner can never truly trust him. Marcus also has a slight limp from where his leg never fully healed after being run over by a tractor when he was farming with his father.​
History
Born on the Andara, the governmental, industrial, and agriculture center of Andaran System, Marcus Teinus spent his entire childhood on the family farm. Never learning or desiring to learn how to farm, milk a cow, or the thousands of other basic choirs that are required to successfully maintain a farm, he was horrible at it and was more of a harm than a help. Because of this fact his family sent him to the capital to live with a family friend, there he learned the histories, arts, swordsmanship, marksmanship, and of the Jedi Order. Always knowing that he was sensitive to the Force but unable to use it, young Marcus fell in love with the power that would result from joining the order and learning the ways of harnessing the power of the Force.

Every thought returned to the time when he would be able to travel to the center of the Jedi Council and learn their ways. Marcus never cared for studying though he was talented in history and math as a result of this fact his grades were constantly below average. His father realized this fact and also recognized his son's desire to be adequate in arms. As result to these observations, he sent his son to a military school. Marcus was naturally bad at the arts of warfare, but his extreme dedication and determination allowed him to be excellent at the styles of the sword and capable with the blaster rifle. At Marcus's twentieth birthday, he was sent back to his parents home and was gifted a long sword and blaster rifle. With permission to leave, Marcus is now on his way to the Jedi Order wherever that may be.​

Five foot, eleven inches at one hundred ten pounds is underweight: I'm shorter than that and I weigh more, and I'm already a stick in terms of physique. Stats are a bit stacked.

To be blunt, your character is pretty boring: "prodigies" are just not interesting, in general. Give him something more interesting than "he can do this, this and this amazingly well."

Loads better: I like. If Marcus' grotesque appearance is a result of some horrid event, I suggest detailing what happened. You do not have to, though.
