Seeker Dasaen

35

Male

Miraluka

One might mistake Dasaen for a Refugee at first glance, and even more so if they were to truly look at his clothing and bandaged head. His features kept hidden by his cloak and bandages, though tuft's of crimson hair can sometimes be seen upon his head. Well muscled and agile he seems rather strong for someone living among the slums. Standing roughly six feet tall with a medium build Dasaen has little in the way of defining features. He bears a handful of scars along his torso from years of training with his brothers.

Doctor: While Seekers of Luka Sene are normally more combat oriented, they often have additional skills they can call upon as they are simply all of the same school rather than a a religious order. As such Dasaen is a very skilled doctor able to command his own influence of the force with medical training. More importantly his studies include xenobiology, as such he holds a deeper understanding of how to perform surgery on aliens and what medicines are best for their bodies. He can also use the force to accelerate healing times or prevent death for short times, though it requires full focus and is less effective on larger wounds.

Martial Training: No Sene Seeker goes without training, it would be naive and foolish to assume that all those who fail are willing to be redeemed or those who led to the fall would allow them to be redeemed. As such Dasaen trained heavily in hand to hand and staff combat under the tutelage of master warriors among the Luka Sene. He also received combat training with a vibroblade, however, he tries to avoid it, to end a life is no small matter and the last resort alone. His medical training and understanding of Xenobiology mean's that he often tries to wound or strike critical points on an opponent with his staff.

Force Monk: Born on Alpheridies even with his strong connection to the force he is not a Jedi or Sith. As a member of the Luka Sene he simply studied the force to better the lives of those on his homeworld. As such he can move objects with the force, having advance force sense, Farsight, and Field Detection. He can perform combat moves such as the force push and pull. More impressively he has learned to heal with the force with no instructor to teach him.

Force Historian: Part of the work the Miraluka do in the Luka Sene is to preserve the history of the force. They talk of it, record it and try to understand the viewpoints of other force users. While they forceship the force they also wish to understand other views on it so they may better educate themselves in future interactions. As such Luka Sene often know more of Jedi and Sith history than some of the members of those orders, though that could be intentional on the parts of Sith and Jedi.

Born Alpheridies to loving parents, Dasaen parents were counseled and when he was old enough Dasaen chose to enter the Luka Sene. He did so knowing that it was a promise to remain faithful to the teachings of Ashla and Bogan, but to never follow the path of death. Among his peers, he showed considerable talent and understanding as a member of the Luka Sene. Yet as a galaxy of war boiled around them, the Mira Luka renewed their faith in the Jedi and the Republic, though he could sense the pain that the Mandalorian's caused they still believed in the non-violent method.

When the new Sith Empire rose, members of the Luka Sene began to slip away off to follow the calls of Bogan. Many Sene Seekers left and few returned most with the sad news of death. This war was different the Miraluka offered more to the Jedi they were so closely tied with, advisors and trainers to help recover the organization's numbers.

As he grew older and became more steeped in the history of the Bogan following Sith and the Ashla believing Sith he found himself understanding more and more why they fought. He understood why his people so rightly tried to distance themselves from the Sith, they did not understand kinship or compassion. They believe violence and destruction the only tools worthy of use, they killed without thought or reason needing only to prove they were strong.

He heard the story that many choose to follow the Sith, and he wondered why anyone would wish death and hate upon the galaxy? He didn't understand the reasoning or want to, anyone who could justify the destruction of an entire planet was beyond redemption. Yet as the conflict came to a close it dawned on him, they had followed because they thought he would win. To them survival and winning meant more than being good, that was a shock that unnerved the young man.

Yet once more the war was ended and now finally the Miraluka believed the worst to be over. Now a more senior member thanks to so many deaths and growing up in the shadow of this war Dasaen had become even more committed to preventing future suffering across the galaxy. He often petitioned aid missions to other devasted worlds or offering more aid to the Republic and even the Jedi than they had already given.

Now more than ever he wanted to spread not belief in the force but simply the kinship and bond Miraluka shared with their own species. That they did not have to battle and kill they were all one big family and that they were not so different the force impacted them all. That

When he finally believed his voice might be heard, tragedy struck yet again with the destruction of the colony world Katarr. They felt the loss and pain, for months they grieved at the sudden and grievous loss of life that befell the Miraluka people. Dasaen and others went to the world, to conduct rights and hopefully let the souls of the dead find peace within the force. Yet upon arrival, they saw visions of death and pain, yet a hope a survivor no longer on the planet, of course, the Luka Sene convened believing this survivor to important in some way to the force.

Thus they turned inward to prepare Seekers, they found that few were ready for the task and they had no clear information on where the missing Miraluka might be. Dasaen volunteered to go alone and search all his life if it took it to bring their missing kin home. Believing the best place to start his search was a hub of refugees he booked passage to Nar Shaddaa. Finding the poor and downtrodden here in such terrible a terrible state, he took to help everywhere he could. Thugs would occasionally try to stop yet none have yet succeeded, lately, they have taken to ignoring and mocking the Dasaen.

Dasaen however did not care what they called him, yet he found it all so hurtful. That a world like this could exist, where people cheered for death and caused it without caring. Where lives could be bought and sold... It disgusted him deeply, yet what could he do? Freeing slaves on a planet where they could go nowhere but back to their masters was pointless. He could barely feed himself sometimes, where would he find food the thousand if not hundreds thousands starving around him. This was not a job for a Miraluka this woul need an army or aid from dedicated workers... A Jedi could change things perhaps but he was not that nor could he pretend to be, so he attention turned to leaving. His missing sister was not here and now he would move on to find her.

Though rumors of his skill and good standing with the refugees would be of interest to the Exchange. A Miraluka Seeker must be seeking something, thus if he still here he has not found it and even if it goes against his values leaving the planet to continue his search might just be enough to make him play ball.

Cas Eelen

37

Male

Nautolan

A lime-green humanoid of the Nautolan species, Cas stands at roughly six foot, more or less the average for his kind. His eyes, despite being large and pitch black, have a certain warmth to them when his gaze is met. Indeed, he carries something of a friendly demeanour, with the corner of his mouth usually curled upwards ever-so-slightly creating the impression of a welcoming individual.

His most eye-catching feature is undoubtedly the head-tails that fall to roughly below his shoulder. Usually most of these head-tails are kept neatly behind his back, with one or two draped down his torso. These play a crucial role in Nautolan biology, allowing for members of the species to sense the emotional state of another being through pheromone changes and this ability has become a central part of the communication process in Nautolan culture. The tendrils are most effective underwater, but have adapted for use on land nonetheless.

While not particularly brawny, Cas has a well-toned figure and keeps in good shape. Across his body are several circular markings of a slightly darker green, with each Nautolan having a unique pattern across their body. Usually, Cas can be found wearing tight, practical and utilitarian clothing that, while may not be much of a fashion statement, promises not to prove a nuisance in the field.

Medical Doctor: Having been involved in the medical profession since the the age of fifteen (the age of maturity among the Nautolan species), Cas has been treating wounds and illnesses for the great majority of his life. During his time on Glee Anselm, he was often placed in the operating theater as part of a surgical team. Following on from this, however, his work in the Army of the Republic fulfilled a substantially different role. This wide variety of training and experience has allowed for Cas to develop as a truly skilled Medical Doctor, with a strong knowledge of the fundamentals in his field.

First Aid Specialist: While serving in the Army of the Republic, Cas was assigned the role of 'First Aid Specialist'. In preparation for serving as medical officer within the ranks of the Army of the Republic, Cas was sent to the 'First Republic Medical Academy of Coruscant.' Here, he underwent a three-year introductory course on the basic biology and treatment options for a great many of the various species found across Republic space. When actively serving, Cas specialised in giving immediate, life-saving treatment to the wounded on the front lines.

Gunslinger (Blaster Pistols): As a requisite for serving, Cas undertook small-arms training with blaster pistols. He is trained in their use and can hold his own against lesser opponents, though is by no means an expert.

Biology: As a Nautolan Cas has a particularly tough body, a result of the dense cartilage and strong bones that is common to all his kin. Additionally, the Nautolan species initially survived and formed a civilisation underwater before expanding onto land. Because of this, all Nautolans have the ability to breathe underwater with ease. Cas also possesses an exceptional sense of smell that only becomes more effective when underwater, this being another racial perk.

Born in the year 3990BBY on the mid-rim planet of Glee Anselm, homeworld of the Nautolan species, to two dedicated parents, Cas had something of a pleasant upbringing. His father, Oric Eelen, was an elected elder for the city of Pieralos, the Nautolan capital of Glee Anselm, which allowed for certain creature comforts. Like all Nautolan children, his early life was spent underwater as his limbs developed to become strong enough to support their bodies on land. His parents soon came to learn that, despite his young age, he was going to be a handful. Swimming beyond the accepted boundaries and depths, the young Cas had a thirst for exploring what was unknown to him. Undoubtedly, when his first day on land finally came and allowed him to experience what must have seemed to be almost another world entirely, his adventurous young mind was filled with inspiration for the future.

It was not until Cas was ten years old, the equivalent of being aged eighteen in human society, that he decided upon the path his life was to take. Enrolling in the Pieralos Medical Academy in 3980BBY. Throughout his four years at the academy, Cas learned the basics of galactic medicine and treatments before electing to specialise and train in the Nautolan College of Surgeons, which extended his academic career by another two years. Indeed, at the College he learned primarily Nautolan biology, but was also required to learn the biology of the major ‘tourist species’, with Glee Anselm being a current member of the Republic. The skills taught to Cas during these six years would remain with him for the rest of his life, and while he had always intended to remain on Glee Anselm, emerging galactic events would soon change his fate forever.

In the year 3972BBY, the Mandalorian crisis was growing steadily as news spread throughout the galaxy of the planetary raids and naval skirmishes beyond Republic space. Under Mandalore the Ultimate, who envisioned a future where warriors the ruled and were supported by the farmers and artisans, the Mandalorian ranks gradually swelled and became more disciplined, resulting in a dangerous fighting force of Mandalorian ‘Neo-Crusaders’. Indeed, tension gradually built as the Mandalorians continued to conquer words of the Outer Rim, expanding their territories dramatically. The Republic, however, did not intervene to prevent these acts of aggression initially, and the Mandalorian forces continued unopposed for some time despite the calls for action from some in the Republic.

Tensions between the Mandalorians and the Republic reached their peak toward the end of the year 3965BBY when the Republic finally acted to protect its interests on the planet of Taris, naming it a member-planet of the Republic. Forming a defensive naval line to fend off the Mandalorian assault, and with light skirmishes, the galaxy entered a period of roughly eight-or-so months, with the prospect of war looming over each day.

It was during this period that Cas volunteered, against the better advice of his parents. It was likely a mixture of influences that inspired the young Nautolan to serve with the forces of the Republic. Perhaps his deep-rooted desire for adventure from childhood and his disliking of everyday repetition and monotony, or his genuine desire to use his training and skill to help those who needed it most also likely played a role in convincing Cas to volunteer. After indicating his desire to join the Army of the Republic at a local information office, he was advised that he would spend a year training to transfer his medical abilities onto the field as well as learning other important skills needed to serve on the frontlines.

Being sent to the First Republic Medical Academy of Coruscant in the year 3964BBY, Cas underwent a year-long period of specialised training to become a medical officer on the frontlines, and he elected not to serve in the operating theatres, but instead to serve as a specialist providing life-saving treatment on the frontlines. As a part of his training, Cas was taught the basic do’s and dont’s of blaster use so that he may protect himself, should the need arise, though he found that he was only average at best in his skill with a blaster.

Cas was eventually sent to join the Republic forces protecting Taris in 3963BBY, and began active duty not long before the planet of Taris was doomed to fall to Mandalorian forces. Immediately after, the period that has since become known as ‘The Onslaught’ began. The Mandalorian forces continued their invasion through Republic space, conquering numerous worlds as the Republic Army was beaten back further and further, the Jedi Council refusing to allow Jedi support at the same time. Some of the fiercest fighting in this period took place on the Zabrak homeworld, and Ord Mantell, conflicts Cas was involved in heavily. Throughout these battlezones, Cas found himself acting as medical support for more than just his colleagues, but for the civilians of the planets also, with the Mandalorians showing no mercy.

It was a devastating conflict that shook the Republic to the core, and it even looked as though the planet of Alderaan may fall to the Mandalorian advance. Fortunes changed for the Republic, however, when the Jedi faction of 'Revanchists' defied their orders from the Jedi High Council to join the defence of the Republic. This marked a turning point in the war as the Jedi took control of the Republic Navy and Army, leading the counter-attacks and repulsing the Mandalorian armies from Republic space. The fight, while just as brutal, was finally being taken to the Mandalorians as the Republic moved to go on an offensive campaign of its own.

This intervention by Jedi forces would secure a victory for the Republic in the Mandalorian wars, and the Jedi became heroes to not only the men they lead, but for the entire Republic.

Peace was not to last, however. Seemingly corrupted by the war they had won, the Jedi Revanchists fell from the light side of the force to become the leaders of a new, resurgent Sith Empire. The Jedi Civil War began as the Jedi High Council led the fight against the new enemy to the Republic. This war, once more, brought devastation and suffering to a galaxy only at the very beginning of a period of recovery from the Mandalorian Wars.

After the conclusion of this conflict and another victory for the Republic, and now a veteran of war, Cas was allowed to leave his military service. Boarding the first transport available to him, Cas joined thousands of other veteran soldiers and refugees headed to the moon of Nar Shaddaa, where they would then seek transport to whatever planet they so desired.

Shortly after his arrival, however, the Exchange locked down the refugee sector and Cas found not only trapped, but in the midst of another brewing conflict. Doing his best to aid the refugees around him who needed medical assistance, Cas made something as a name for himself as the 'skilled Nautolan doctor'. Becoming known to the Exchange, he was offered an opportunity to leave the Refugee Sector, and thus gain access to the space ports of Nar Shaddaa. Wary of working for the Exchange, Cas reluctantly took the offer presented to him by the Exchange Agent Mol, seeing no other option.
