Balick Arken
How long do you usually write? I try to write one to two paragraphs. If I am inspired I can write several.
Do you enjoy writing collaborative posts for things like conversations, combat, etc.? Yes, I am learning to do that with people.
Is grammar and depth of writing important to you? I was raised by an engineer. It is important to me, but I can easily read past grammatical mistakes. I am working at being a better writer and open to gentle critiques.
Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring? I like the stories of the underdog who finally makes it. I would like to try to play a “grey” Sith and struggle with the temptation to push the technology and his powers.
Is there anything you really dislike and want to avoid like the plague? Romance, my wife would kill me…
Is there something you are uncomfortable with happening to your character? Not really.
Do you have any short-term or long-term goals with this character?

List of uncovered and suspected flaws. To be put into restricted database.
Balrick is someone who is more interested in his science and his own ideas that the party line of the Empire. He has a hard time with the Empire's use of killing to achieve their goals. So he has some sympathy for the enemy.

Personal biography, as detailed by the candidate for use in imperial archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note.
The T.A.L. 25 is a superior prosthetic hand. It was designed to replace my left hand that was cut off by a lightsaber. What makes it superior is the versatility that it has. It has the gripping power of five men, the fine dexterity motion of the best surgeons in the galaxy, and other other abilities that match its design.
The design came as a result of a dual that was fought over my mentor. Axster Kea'l and I ended up fighting for our place in the graduate program and her attention. I lost my left hand and he died. I spent two years studying and designing a new hand. My mentor took a new student to replace me. Now I am driven to perfect my skills and produce the perfect species.
