History: Joshua was born on Coruscant to a por family, Joshua's force sensitivity was discovered while he was stil an infant. His parents, already having two children and barely making enough to feed them, happily gave him to the temple in hopes that he would be able to live a better life then them.. As a result Joshua's training began at an early age and took up nearly every moment of his life.
While an excellent student and exceling at any class he put his mind to, many of Joshua's teachers worried about him due to his massive curiousity. Joshua was known for spending many hours in Archives, studying whatever had his fancy at the time. He known for being knowledgable about many of the wars the Jedi took part in, their various enemies, and famous figures in each group. Joshua was also facinated by lightsabers and spent much time studying them in hopes of creating one that had never been seen before.
When the time came for Joshua to make his own lightsaber the young human used designs he had found in the Archives to make the weapon he would use the rest of his life. He used the lightsaber for a few months but quickly became unsatisfied with only using one blade. After a bit more research Joshua took the time to build a second blade. Instead of a regular lightsaber though, Joshua made a Shoto, to add more defense to his fighting style.
Joshua's spent several more years at the temple before becoming the Padawan of human Jedi Raiden van Isis at the age of 17. Raiden was known for taking in students that the other Jedi worried about and training them to become wonderful Jedi. Raiden would take Joshua to many worlds over the course of his Apprenticeship and help sate the young man's curiousity when it got the better of him. While the two often times butted heads they got along well and enjoyed each other company and the friendly banter they had. However Joshua never felt truly content and always felt a need to escape his master and the Temple's teachings.
Joshua's Apprenticeship came to an end after three years during a mission on Hutta. Hearing stories of a possible Force-user causing trouble on the planet, Raiden and Joshua were sent to investiagte. Their investigation took them deep into the planet's swamps were they found the man they were looking for, only to be shocked when found out it was a Dark Jedi with a vendetta against the Temple. The Dark Jedi attacked the Jedi on sight, causing a battle to break out between him and the two Jedi. While Raiden and Joshua were mostly able to hold their own against their assailtant, the Sith managed to score a crippling blow on Joshua and destroy his green lightsaber. Realizing his Padawan was in danger, Raiden proceeded to fight their opponent on his own. After an hour the match ended in a draw. While the former Jedi managed to land a fatal blow on the Jedi Knight, Raiden used it as an opening to land one on his opponent as well.
With his Master and their opponent dead, Joshua was at a crossroads for what felt like the first time in his life. He could either return to the temple and the life he knew or vanish and explore the galaxy at his leisure. Unable to resist the cal of freedom, Joshua took the latter option. After taking his masters lightsaber, as well as the Dark Jedi's to replace his destroyed one, Joshua tok his master's body back to the nearest city. After using a Mind Trick on a passerby to have Raiden's body taken back to the temple, Joshua quickly traded in his Jedi garbs for something more modern that would help him blend in more, before leaving the planet on a different ship.
Over the next three years Joshua would travel around the galaxy, taking odd jobs to support himself. One of these jobs, which he took during his first year lead him to Korribon, the ancestral home of the Sith. Working with tomb raiders at the time, Joshua acted as their primary guard and took the time to study what he could about the ancient enemy of the Jedi Order. While the carvings teling the history of the Sith interested him, Joshua was more curious about their techniques. When he was alone, he would often practice them, though with mixed results at first. Force Lightning was one of the first techniques he tried and met with utter failure, due to his hesitance to dive into the Daek-side of the force because of his Jedi training. He had a bit more success in creating illusions, though the ones he could conjure up at the time were very minor. The skills Joshua took most easily to was using the force to conceal himself. While the technique wasn't perfect by any means he could sometimes sneak up or away from his companions without them noticing, even if he was in their line of sight. Throught this time Joshua never forgot to keep up his Jedi training either and practised his lightsaber-combat and other Force techniques everyday.
Joshua has spent the last two years on the planet of Tatooine. Having heard about several crystals there that he might be able to use in his lightsabers. While traveling through the planets desert's Joshua happened upon a Tusken Raider encampment and decided to visit it out of simple curiousity. Needless to say, the violent species atacked the former Jedi, only to have their attacks repeled. While the fighting was brutal and lasted for over and hour, Joshua withheld from slaying as many of the Raiders. Eventually the leader of the encampment called off the attacks. Recognizing Joshua's strength the leader, after much trial and error, offered Joshua a deal. His tribe was at war a neighboring tribe and were on the verge of defeat. In exchange for his help in the upcoming battle, the leader offered Joshua a place in the tribe and assistance with what he was there to do.Seeing an oppurtunity he could not pass up, Joshua accepted without hesitation.
The next day Joshua, along with several Tusken warriors, went out to meet the enemy. Due to the fighting the day before, the force Joshua was with was much smaller. However, using his lightsaber, as well as his desceased Master's saber staff and the force, Joshua was able to help his new allies win the battle, if only be a narrow margin. Returning to the camp victorious, Joshua was made a member of the clan. With the help of his new clansmen, as well as some of the other Tusken Raider clans they encountered during their travels. Joshua was able to track down the crystals he was looking for within a year. The first crystal, which was silver in color, took five months to track down and locate. During this time Joshua became good friends with a Raider by the name of Grk'kkrs'arr and came to view him as a brother, eventually coming to simply calling him Grk. Joshua and Grk traveled everwhere and it was Grk who found the location of the second crystal Joshua was looking for, a crystal that was as black as the night-sky.
Returning home with their prize, Joshua, Grk, and the Raiders who had come with them were ambushed by one of Tatooine's most vicious pradators: a Krayt Dragon. Knowing they would not be able to escape the creature, the warriors fought against it toth and nails. though the fighting of feirce, Joshua was forced to watch in horror as as his fellow kinsmen were slain by the beast one by one. Near the end of the battle the only ones left standing were Joshua and Grk. Though the two were succesful in heavily injuring the creature, it in turn managed to land a seemingly deadly blow on Grk, which was the straw that finally broke the camel's back. seething with anger, Joshua furiously attacked the dragon, letting the Dark-side of the force guide him and even unleashing his first successful Force Lightning on the creature. In the end end Joshua crippled the beast but instead of killing it outright he began giving it a slow death, relishing in it's pain until a hand was placed upon his shoulder. Spining out to attack his assailant, Joshua's blade stopped short of Grk's neck. Realizing what had just happened, Joshua took a moment to calm himself and to quel his emotions. Once he was back to normal he gave the krayt dragon a quick and painless death before following Grk's instructions to extract the pearl from within it's gizzard, only to find the dragon had three of them. Giving one to Grk and keping one for himself, Joshua gave the third to the tribes leader, as thanks for all the help he had received.
For the past year Joshua has spent his time atuning the two crystals he found on Tatoine to the force. With both successfully atuned they have now been placed in the lightsabers he felt fit them best. His buissiness done on tatoine, he left his clan to explorer the galaxy more, promising to return should they ever need his help or if he was on the planet.
