NAME: Ael Ked (Only responds to ‘Knight/Master Ked,' ‘Corporal Ked,' or 'King Ked')
FACTION: New Jedi Order/Galactic Alliance
RANK: Knight/Corporal
SPECIES: Epicanthix
AGE: 48
GENDER: Male
HEIGHT: 2.1 m (84 in.)
WEIGHT: 139.1 kg (308.4 lbs.)
EYES: Grayed Green
HAIR: Stark Black with gray strands
SKIN: Brown-yellow
DISTINGUISHING MARKS: Distinct Epicanthic folds. Scar across right breast. Hairless body. Toned and even musculature. Tattoo on left shoulder of childhood tribe. Dark red left knee. Pure black goatee with gray strands. Wide nose. Heavy German/Russian accent.

STRENGTH
High. Since childhood, he’s been trained to be a warrior and soldier. Because of his culture and biology, his high levels of testosterone has helped him exceed in physical aspects of skill and ability. It usually takes him longer to figure out semi-complex problems than it would others.
DEXTERITY
Average. Because of his large body, his flexibility is that much lower. Still, his natural speed is great and he is able to jump higher than most. He’s not keen on thinking outside what he knows and understands. New philosophies and ideas usually wash over him without affecting his mind.
CONSTITUTION
High. He has a superb immune system. Any fractured bones or bruised muscles become healed much faster than most others. His race disallows persuasion by words and ideals. Insulting him or threatening him does nothing to sway him.
INTELLIGENCE
Low. Though he has a great war-mind, his academic and cultural intellect is quite low. He has a great sense of time, length and even weight. Also, his knoweldge of the Eightfold Path and Jedi Codes is high. He knows about the physical body and of combat (either hand-to-hand, one-on-one, or otherwise).
WISDOM
Below Average. His insight is short. He rarely thinks inward or meditates on personal matters. Going to him with a personal issue would result in a quick and tasteless response. He doesn’t understand emotion but, rather, action. Some would say he’s Echani in that respect.
CHARISMA
Low/High. Cold and calculating, people do not go to him for personal advice or to learn intimate subjects. He is a great leader, but not one to love. He makes for a great General and rallier-of-forces, but not a friend or lover. He is very much the strong father-figure, if not authoritarian.

FORCE POWERS

Key Force Powers:

- Revitalize (An inherent ability that helped him through his extensive childhood training. He can meditate for three weeks without food and one week without water. He can fight with high energy for a few hours. When he trains regularly for days straight, he's using this ability.)
- Body (He can take on three large males in a fair wrestling match without this. But using Body allows him crash his fist through tree trunks and lift the entire thing to throw it several feet.)
- Heal Self(He can regenerate regenerative tissue (e.g. skin) quickly and clean dirtied wounds just as fast. The scars on his body are from when he hadn’t developed the skill to its current degree.)
- Force Absorb (Though his well of Force energy is deep, he can use it quickly. He took years to develop this skill. Now, being in the thick of battle can keep his Force energies at a consistent level.)
- Pyrokinesis (This was the first Force power he discovered and thus the most developed. By fourteen years old, he could burn down an entire village. He has increased its intensity and heat since then.)

Other Force Powers:

- Sense/Tracking (His tribe specialized in hunting and tracking deserters and enemies. This extenuates his natural abilities to track prey.)
- Jump (This is merely used to catch runaways and prey or to gain the upper hand in a duel.)
- Speed (Same as the above. Other applications include: the completion of several tasks in a timely manner.)
- Moving Meditation (Alchaka)(This was first instilled when his tribe would war against others. He easily applied it to the Force when he entered the Order.)
- Tapas (The winters required bundling up, but this would restrict his movements when other tribes invaded their territory. Eventually, the Force allowed him to keep warm with minimal clothing.)

LIGHTSABER FORMS
- Vaapad (Jar’Kai) (His personality inclines him to learn this Form before others. Even with his high testosterone levels, short temper, and thirst for victory, his reasons for fighting are usually "just." Since the only other education he acquired was that of the Jedi Philosophies, he knows how to keep a level mind while expressing his aggressiveness in efficient and progressive ways.)
- Soresu (He dislikes this form almost completely and was initially inclined to learn Djem So. However, his Master required his understanding of this Form as it was the complete opposite from what he was used to. Though he would never teach the Form, he doesn’t deny that it has saved his life several times when he was pushed to his physical limits by others more skilled than himself.)
- Vaiko (His culture stresses the quick learning of others' movements and behaviors during battle. Because of this, he has developed a high aptitude for Vaiko, though he doesn’t know of the Form or that he’s even skilled in it.)

SKILLS
- His species natural affinity to protect the mind from invasion allows him to keep safe from illusions, mental manipulation, and invasive techniques without much intervention on his own.
- Managing people in stressful situations.

STRENGTHS
- Deep well of Force-energy
- Never underestimates and opponent
- Military Tactician
- Proactive, focused, and diligent

WEAKNESSES
- Uses the Force with little discipline
- Unable to uphold a duel across long distances
- Uneducated in academics and cultures
- Aggressive/arrogant and stubborn/short-tempered

GEAR
- Red combat suit (The top can easily be discarded for freer movement. This is often done due to his high body temperature. Because of this, it is silk-like and breathable but skin-tight with a zipper down the middle for easy access. Knee-high boots are made of a Cortosis-weave that he’s used to block other Lightsaber wielders before. His trousers are loose but thin enough to tuck into his boots without much irritation and have a low crotch, along with his lack of underwear (only enough to keep his manhood ‘out of the way’) allows for greater movement.)
-- Leather belt (It was made by his father from his first kill. It is unusually resilient. Its use other than keeping his Lightsabers around his waist is purely aesthetic.)
--- Hak (This Lightsaber on his right side has within it a Sigil crystal, increasing the potency of the purple blade.)
--- Blok (This Lightsaber is on his left hip and has within it a Phond crystal, making the orange blade lick with flames.)
--- Oew (This Lightsaber is strapped to his back and is imbued with Baas' Wisdom, a crystal which causes a minor instance of frostbite when touched (either the blade or the shaft at any time). This is a phrik saber staff with a meter long white blade and a two meter long shaft.)

SHIP
- Shib or 'The Falcon' in Basic (This easily modified YZ-900 freighter is mostly for simple transport from Temple to War ship or vice-versa. However, it has been upgraded with a second Shield Generator and a much larger, but more powerful and efficient engine. Both take up an entire cargo hold together, however. The co-pilot position has been replaced with upgraded computer, scanning, and navigation systems which allow for single pilot use. The ten autoblasters as well as the Proton torpedo launcher can be easily controlled here. The second cargo hold has been replaced to hold four more torpedoes, for a total of 20. There is room for two more crew members to man the Twin Heavy Cannon Laser turrets (THCLs). One of these turrets was removed for the additional two autoblasters. Only three more passengers can board this ship after the full crew of only 3 men.)

PERSONALITY
Calculating and cold, Master Ked is stern and has an air of authority and seriousness about him. His ideals are quite concrete, but that is because he has rarely been proven wrong by past scenarios. His natural education of guerrilla warfare and his further study of planetary war strategies give him the ability to adapt to almost any situation on the field and make quick and decisive calls. Many of them are controversial since they sometimes require the sacrifice of some of his men. But he’s won many battles against rogue nations. He’s often called onto the field for advice and intervention, making his workload much larger. Regardless, he takes his responsibilities seriously and completes all tasks assigned to him in a timely manner, which is usually before others expect them to be completed. Along with this, he knows everyone's name. And when he doesn't, he learns them quickly. This is a sign of respect to him.

Any personal matters brought to his attention are ignored or waved off. When personal matters concern himself, he confronts the individual sternly and unyielding in order to solve differences. Unfortunately, his stubbornness doesn't allow for much compromise and results in a strain between the two. Consequently, these are strong and profuse. As much as he is revered and respected, many dislike and disagree with his methods. He blames them for the inability to sacrifice the few for the many, as his Jedi Codes require him to do. They are too weak to make the hard calls and, thus, are not as capable as him. He views the Force as "ancestral influence" or "gifts." He speaks in short and concise sentences and often gets frustrated when listening to those more winded than himself.

His ability to feel compassion or empathy is almost void but is compensated by his sympathy (however little) and practice of respecting others. There's also a distinct irony or hypocrisy about him. He believes others should be able to help themselves while he tend to do as much as he can for others. It usually applies to those who deem themselves skilled enough to protect others that he will point out their shortcomings should they have any. At the same time, he will protect them with his life, as any Jedi would.

Reproduction is a necessary stage in life, and he has fathered several children, and the mother has been married, but he rarely shows any kind of affection towards his children, never mind his wife. But his culture doesn't allow for close attachments, which he has done well within the Order of abstaining from hindering relationships. He believes: to become physically powerful, such as himself, they much be mentally resilient. This means the individual must not be able to feel anything at the death of another for a moment of hesitation will be the cause your own death. Emotional detachment is the foundation of a capable warrior.
