"…Taking the life of an innocent is always harder even than taking your own, if you're sincere. This is the ultimate test of selflessness—whether you're ready to face unending emotional pain, true agony, to gain the power to create peace and order for billions of total strangers. That is the sacrifice. To be vilified by others, by people you know and care for, and for your personal sacrifice to be totally unknown to those billions you save, to do your duty as a Sith. To do your duty for the good of the galaxy. It's easy to be a clean-cut hero slaying monsters. There's always a little bit of vanity in it. There can be no room for vanity or pride in being despised."

A member of the nobility from the Tapani sector and heir to the Lordship of House Mecetti, Sev has strong ties to the Sith Order, his bloodline having produced some of the greatest and most terrifying Sith Lords to have ever graced the Galaxy. Pushed by his family to continue in their footsteps, the young man has lived his entire life to pursue the goals of the Sith in secret, using his high social status and political pull as a means to an end. Yet Sev cannot help but feel conflicted, for the Sith's sadistic methods leave room for doubt in the young Sith's mind, and draw him towards the light...

GENERAL INFORMATION
[fancybox2]
Izu2012a.jpg
Personality: Conflicted between the light and dark sides of the force, Sev's personality is quite two-faced. Polite and refined when he was in his role as senator for Obulette, Sev appeared to be relatively kind, but steadfast in his resolve. But in his role as a Sith, he became more rigid and did his best to detach himself. In the years since the return of the Sith Empire and the dissolution of the Republic, Sev transitioned to the role of Inquisitor within the Sith Order, and has had a more direct role in enforcing Imperial rule. Although Sith Inquisitors are known for mercilessness and overzealous loyalty to their beliefs in the Sith code, Sev acts in a way that almost seems to indicate that becoming an Inquisitor was an affirmation of what he wants to be like, rather than how he actually is.

Sev recites the teachings of the Sith in his mind, stating them almost as a matter of fact, although if one were able to read his thoughts, they would see the doubt he held behind those words. The combination of having been raised as a Tapani noble and member of the Sith has shaped Sev into someone whose emotions are almost always in conflict between the light and dark sides of the force, concealed by the public persona he adopted as a member of the Senate when the Republic was still around. This conflict has produced instances where he performed acts that weren't necessarily in line with the Sith code, such as helping the weak or those in need. Yet there have also been instances where he has performed acts in line with the dark side, as if to prove to his family that he was worthy of taking on the mantle of his forefathers. It is this constant internal conflict of emotions that serves as Sev's greatest downfall.

Strengths and Weaknesses: Although Sev is an exceptional lightsaber wielder and is particularly dangerous due to his force bond ability, this serves as a double edged sword, in some cases leaving room for hesitation in his actions since he can sense the raw emotion coming from the fighting style of the person he fights against.

But more than anything, Sev is afraid.

Afraid that he will never live up to the reputation of his bloodline.

Afraid to see innocents hurt or killed.

Afraid of dying, for the Sith grant death upon those who are deemed weak, and the Jedi intend to destroy the Sith Order in it's entirety.

Afraid of the very emotions of sorrow and empathy he feels in the face of horrific acts he may have had a part in, for he feels it weakens his connection to the dark side.

Afraid for the safety of the Tapani people, particularly those he has sworn to represent in the Senate.

How might this weakness play out against him in combat? Here are a few examples.

Someone who channels anger into their strikes might cause Sev to become somewhat afraid to press the offensive, out of fear for the risk of exposing himself to injury.

Someone who expresses sorrow in their fighting style might cause Sev to avoid a decisive blow, because he might feel empathy towards them.

Someone who is afraid while fighting Sev might also cause him to hesitate, as he would be averse to striking down a fearful target unless it was purely out of self defense.


Skills

Force Bond - Sev has an unintentional and uncanny ability to form a force bond with other people. This is the primary reason that he has not completely fallen into the trappings of the dark side, but it also means that he is more easily influenced, for he literally begins to sense the raw emotion of any individual he fights, which could leave room for hesitation. The bond becomes stronger with each subsequent fight with that individual, and is especially potent around force sensitives. However, this is a two way street. Those he fights are more easily able to sense Sev's raw emotion, especially if that person is force sensitive. An especially powerful force user (A Jedi Master or Sith Lord, for instance) might be able to even sense hesitation within Sev's moves as he fights.

Lightsaber/Vibroblade Savant - Sev's lightsaber style transitions quickly between that of Juyo and Soresu in a manner that is reflective of his own internal conflict. Juyo representing his attunement to the dark side and Soresu reflecting his tendency to be drawn towards the light. When applied in the correct ratio, the constant transition between the unrelenting offense of Juyo and the unwavering defense of Soresu makes Sev an especially dangerous opponent in lightsaber combat. His signature move is the ability to ignite his lightsaber and bifurcate or impale an opponent in the blink of an eye, iajutsu style. Known for winning several dueling tournaments on his home planet, Sev is also a well renowned vibroblade duelist.

Strength: Sev is of average strength for an athletic and trained Sith assassin.

Dexterity: As a Sith assassin, Sev's greatest physical attribute is his ability to move swiftly and accurately. He is easily capable of parkour, with or without the assistance of the force, and is insanely fast in lightsaber dueling. Without the assistance of the force, Sev is already capable of running two miles in 10:07. With the assistance of the force, his speed and reaction times increase to beyond conventional limits.

Constitution: Being young and in good shape, Sev's constitution is in line with an athletic human male of his age.

Intelligence: Well educated and a member of Tapani nobility, Sev has held enough wit to survive the political scheming of others in his life thus far, although he isn't necessarily a genius.

Wisdom: Brash at times due to his inexperience in life, Sev has a tendency to let emotion guide his actions.

Charisma: He comes across to many as a strikingly handsome young man with proper etiquette, although he isn't used to speaking with those outside the upper class. As a result, situations can be sometimes awkward for him around common folk.

EQUIPMENT
[fancybox4="http://i474.photobucket.com/albums/rr102/KurotsukiBlade/SeverinPlate_zpsaruujeh2.png"]
Sev's Lightsaber - Sev's lightsaber is extremely refined and made of expensive materials.
Constructed from a songsteel frame, the weapon houses two rare Lignan crystals utilized in a bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse system. This modification allows the lightsaber to continue to operate even when submerged, making the weapon fully waterproof. The outer shell is composed of duraplast and adorned with an aurodium lining. The lining alone costing a fortune of credits, this lightsaber serves as a testament to the power and wealth of House Mecetti. The blade is a dark red hue, creating a hissing noise typical of lightsabers of the Sith when activated.

Nyssan Sith Assassin Garb - A black, hooded robe designed for maximum mobility and comfort while still remaining silent, Sev's Sith Assassin garb is light, form fitting, and breathable. A personal energy shield generator is housed within a thin songsteel plate posited at the garb's waistline, serving as the only real protection the garment provides against blaster fire. Designed to dissipate energy bolts across a wider area rather than flat out defeating them, the personal energy shield's purpose is to render lethal shots into ones that instead only injure the wearer. As a result of the garb's focus on lightweight, stealthy design, the shield generator is small and only capable of dissipating one or two blaster bolts before failing in it's entirety.

Translator - The Senate, being composed of countless representatives from the diverse locales of the Republic, is also host to countless languages. To best understand his peers, as fluency in all languages is impossible, Sev carries with him a translator that automatically translates words in real time for him. The translator covers all the most common Galactic languages, and is constantly updated with refinements and new vocabulary with each software update.

Background

Born as a member of Tapani nobility, Sev’s upbringing was marked by a strict lifestyle. Early wakeup calls, a stern father, and what felt like several lifetimes worth of training and knowledge in the arts and sciences, amongst other things. Every day, there was a harsh lesson to be learned. Something to grow from. Sevarin’s mother wasn’t much different in her parenting. A family driven by strong ideals, Sev grew to know his parents not only as family, but as mentors to emulate. He was taught that he descended from a long line of heroes, forgotten by many and erased by the tides of war, but immortalized within the halls of the Mecetti estate. When Sevarin was 10 years old, his father was killed in a terrible assassination plot. Embittered by the experience of losing his father, Sev grew distant and cold. It was not until a few months later when he met a Jedi named Saerina on Alderaan, that his heart of ice eventually appeared to break. They eventually became childhood best friends, the two growing up and spending time together whenever Sev visited Alderaan on diplomatic trips. Sev became a well known and expert duelist, thanks to his countless hours of dedication in the art of swordplay and his frequent sparring with Saerina. Unlike most Senators, Sev had trained with Saerina in swordplay for half his entire life. It was something that came naturally to him. His mother, Lady Estalle Telluria, eventually arranged for her son to become the Senator for Obulette. It wasn’t difficult, as the prince was already well known on the planet for his penchant for helping those in need and generally being a compassionate leader.

And so, during the war with the Republic, Sev remained a source of intel for Sith forces, relaying battle plans and shifts in policy to the Sith Empire all while remaining under the radar.

Fast forward 5 years to the present day, Sev is no longer a member of the now defunct Senate. He has taken his place within the new Sith Empire, although often is tasked with infiltration missions in order to root out more Jedi and their sympathizers for elimination or capture.

Alright, this profile is very well written and is in good enough shape to be accepted into the Senate, so he will be.

He knows many languages, but I would advise you not have him use the Sith language near his Senate peers, unless he is looking for conflict in that sense. He seems very centered around dueling, so maybe he can even find another posh noble to challenge.

Hello! As new AFL for the Republic (in charge of the Senate) please let us know as soon as possible if you are still interested in playing a Senator. We are purging inactive Senators, or those no longer interested. Thank you for your time, and I hope all is well! :)

Coming back to SWRP! I'd like to RP as this character again, although I need to update some things. Before I left, he was a Sith Assassin spy in the Senate. Unfortunately I can't access my character workshop thread due to permissions, but I'd like to grab some info from there and update this profile.

It may be worth noting that the Republic and the Senate no longer exist. We had a time skip a few months ago (not sure how long you've been gone), where both of them were dismantled by the (at the time) newly formed Sith Empire.

We're operating 5 years after that.

I'm totally fine with that! I'll just update the character to account for the timeskip. Would it be possible for me to access my archived character workshop?

I moved your workshop out of the archives so you should be able to access/edit its contents now. Let me know if anything is still amiss!

I like him! Reminds me of my Sith, Kova Olpierr. Although, you might want to find some new images, the ones you were using were from photobucket and aren't able to be 3rd party hosted anymore
