Furthermore, it isn't explained how she ends up on Valkaina? That would also be useful information.

I have some reservations about her history if I'm honest Chev, if her anger is truly such a problem, how has she managed to pass the Jedi trials? More to the point, I feel like her boarding the Mando ship needs a little more detail if it is to stay. Specifically, right now it comes across that she was single handedly butchering an entire Mandalorian cruiser or similarly large ship. Which would be a bit much even for the most experienced of Jedi. Remember these are Mandalorians at their peak; we aren't just dealing with droids or a rebellion. (There have been numerous accounts of Mandalorians killing Jedi in hand to hand combat. I'm sure SOMEONE on that ship would have been able to give her some serious trouble.)
For that reason, I am at this moment going to deny the character. That is not to say however I don't like Dantera, as this is simply not true. I like the inner conflict she is facing with her anger and the Jedi code. But just tone it down a little. (I have no problen with anyone being able to take on large numbers, but let's be a little realistic here guys.) On this subject, it seems to me that she may be a bit too old?
Just some C&C for you buddy.

@DirtyDingo Should've clarified that wasn't necessarily the place she was born (she has no idea of that), but the place she was raised :3 Though I could always just change it or remove it.
Ah right, that's fine then bud. Glad to have you aboard!
I like it! One detail that does however need changing is her place of origin. Valkaina is a 'death world' it's surface being entirely uninhabitable. The enclave is deep beneath the snow and ice. Other than that I'm a fan :)
One for the party! Looking forward to seeing everyone's characters!
@DirtyDingoWould you be opposed to me playing a non-Jedi Miralukan instructor, likely from whatever remains of the Luka Sene?
Provided it's written right, I would have absolutely no qualms with such a character! I love the Miralukans! Though I will ask that you PM me the CS before adding it to the character's page.
@DirtyDingo A lot of history I need to catch up on :P My app is probably going to be one of the lesser quality since my knowledge on the Old Republic (and Star Wars outside of the films and games) is kinda shoddy, but I'll do some research and have a think about who I want to play :3
No worries pal! I look forward to seeing it
Nice :) Apologies for the length of Luthor's bio. May it be noted that I fo not expect anywhere near thay length from you guys. That character just has a lot of history to cover throughout the wars.

Luthor's CS will go up shortly, then my player character will follow sometime tomorrow. I hope to see you all there!

Name: Luthor Antilles
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 42
Height: 6'1
Weight: 170lbs
Class: Jedi Master
Position: Head of the Council
Primary Strength: Lightsaber Combat
Appearance: Luthor's skin is a relatively tanned caucasian and his hair black, his hair is rather long, falling down to the back of his neck and kept slicked back over the top of his head. In addition to this, he keeps a finely trimmed beard. Luthor's eyes are blue.
Weapons: Luthor, being an excellent wielder of paired lightsabers, carries two with him at all times. His first saber, which is dual-phased and has a blue Jenraux crystal, contains advanced components such as an improved fencing emitter and an Ossus dueling lens. His second makes use of a green Upari crystal. Both feature angled wraparound guards and have larger hilts than an ordinary lightsaber. This is because they can magnetise together and form a double-bladed lightsaber with a far longer handle, allowing a user to elect to use the weapon as a kind of short spear.
Additionally, Luthor is armed with a third lightsaber which features a curved hilt, constructed around a fragment of a Rancor's tusk and is powered by a Qixoni crystal. The deep crimson blade would often bring him under fire before the days of the enclave. Though even now there are a select few who disagree with his use of the crystal. This blade is his primary weapon, and rarely uses his other two for singular weapon fighting.
Armor/Clothing/Equipment: Luthor wears a set of typical tan set of Jedi robes beneath a dark brown Baran Do cloak with a pair of study leather boots upon his feet. Aside from these items of clothing, Luthor has no need for anything else.
Skills/Abilities:
- Luthor's abilities with the force are very much confined to the telekinesis aspect in addition to a few 'darker' powers. However of these abilities, he has an unrivalled understanding.
- Luthor, having studied under the greatest duellists in the galaxy for years, is a highly proficient user of the Form II and V lightsaber techniques. Being able to utilise every aspect of the Makashi, Shien and Djem So variants.
- Controversial as his ideology may be, Luthor's teachings within his enclave allow for the use of powers and disciplines that were traditionally considered 'dark side' techniques, of course under strict supervision from those knights trusted enough with such knowledge. This speaks volumes about his character, more so even than his combat capabilities.
- One of Luthor's greatest talents is defensive fighting, as such he is able to deflect most blaster shots.
_____________________________________
Background:
Born on the smuggler's refuge of Keyorin, both Luthor's mother and father were highly notorious Sith marauders. As a result of this, a child's understanding of the force was imparted upon the boy from a very young age, something that in later in life would literally set him ahead of the class. Kyrie and Myra Antilles however, were still wanted by the Jedi order.
As such, when Luthor was three years old, a Jedi Knight came to the planet. Having received an anonymous tip that there was a Sith 'base' in the slums of the hunter's world. He spent months traversing the dark alleyways, shady cantinas and speaking with criminals all willing to sell each other out for a few creds. Due to the reputation the Antilles family had, none were too eager to condemn them. But of course eventually, someone did. This lead to the knight's discovery of the two Sith and his eventual victory against the two.
When the Jedi came upon Luthor however, he could sense him in the force. And immediately the knight knew that he had yet to be touched by the dark side of the force. Because of this, the knight took him to the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine, where for eight years he trained as an initiate. Preparing himself for the trials that he would face at ten years old. The trials that would shape who Luthor was as a person.
At age six, the youngling had successfully managed to memorise the Jedi Code, being able to refer to any of the tenets at a moments notice. As an initiate, Luthor showed much promise in the field of lightsaber combat, being the best duelist of his age on the planet. For four more years the boy trained his mind and his skills, until the day of his tenth birthday. When he underwent the Initiate Trials.
The first test was second nature for him, the council attempted to test his knowledge of the Jedi code. This of course was a challenge at which the child could not fail, for he had known the code back-to-front for the past four years. Bordering five.
Luthor's second test, was to assemble a lightsaber. However, due to the involvement of the Jedi Knight whom had saved the infant years ago. The lightsaber he assembled was his father's. (Although it's red crystal had been changed to a blue one.) This was initially an idea the council disapproved of, but due to the knight's insistence they allowed the act to go on.
For the third test, like all initiates at the Dantooine enclave, Luthor had to see the dark side for himself. The Knight could think of no place better to send the soon-to-be padawan to, than his birthplace. However due to a possibility of bias and training requirements at the enclave, Luthor had to be accompanied by a Jedi Knight from another academy. The name of the knight overseeing his interaction with the dark side, was Xan-Rhu-Tor.
Upon arrival, Luthor walked through the building and looked at the scene which had clearly seen violence. Completely unaware that this was where he was born, or that it was the place his parents died. After a few minutes, Luthor sat down in the room's center and began his meditation, feeling the energies of the dark side, but being cautious as to keep them out of his mind at the same time.
It was during his meditation, that he heard whispers of Sith incantations muttered by both his father and his mother. That was when his test was concluded and he was returned to Dantooine once more. Upon arrival back at the enclave, Luthor shared his experience and how it affected him with the council, who, after telling him his true origins, congratulated the boy that he was ready to become the apprentice to a Jedi Knight.
It was at this point, that Xan himself stepped forward to take on the young Luthor as his padawan, seeing great potential and much of his own skillset within the Human child. Taking him off to Ossus for further training and study there, at his own praxeum, where he could bestow his teachings much more comfortably. For a year, Luthor studied the Shien variant of Form Five, doubling his skill with a lightsaber in that time. It was at the end of that year, that Xan told Luthor to create a second lightsaber, for optimisation of his prowess.
Years went by, and it goes without saying that Luthor soared through the ranks of the Jedi; taking part in many a campaign on many different worlds across the galaxy. Eventually however, came the outbreak of the Mandalorian Wars. It was in this time of peril and segregation throughout the Jedi order, the ever-zealous young Luthor did not hesitate to move to the side of Revan, helping to take the fight to the Mandalorians. For five long years, Luthor fought his way across numerous battlefields, slaughtering Sith and Mandalorian soldiers alike, he was like a machine. Decimating any who would dare stand before him.
It was not until the battle for the forest moon of Dxun, that the knights of the old republic were halted in their efforts.
The plan went to hell almost immediately, with the initial droid assault unable to eliminate a substantial amount of anti-air defenses, the battle was lost almost before it began. But nevertheless in his arrogance, the young commander demanded to be allowed to continue with the assault. For half a standard galactic year the fighting went on, until eventually the fighting ground to a halt. Were it not for the intervention of the bulk of Revan's forces, Luthor, along with the rest of the ground forces would have died that day.
When it was all said and done, Revan's forces had gained a victory, but a pyrrhic one at best. With a huge majority of his forces destroyed, Republic forces were forced to cease their advance into Mandalorian space; allowing Mandalore the Ultimate's forces crucial time to
recover.
Years went by as both forces recovered, until eventually the war came to it's peak at the battle of Malachor V. Here, Mandalore had goaded Revan into a pitched space battle above the planet. The result was the bloodiest battle since the Dxun Dropsite Massacre. Neither side seemed to be winning due to the heavy losses being sustained, eventually; Luthor, ever at Revan's side was there when Mandalore struck him down. This crushed the morale of the entire fleet, and so Antilles boarded aboard the ship under his command, the Stalwart Fury, along with his personal retinue.
The ensuing shift in the battle's balance allowed those in the Mandalorian fleet whom had survived to decimate the remaining Republic forces. However, the fleeing survivors under Antilles returned to Coruscant and informed the Jedi and Republic alike of the atrocities that had taken place. Allowing them to prepare the defense of Coruscant.
The Mandalorian response was swift and decisive, and almost all pockets of resistance were snuffed out immediately. Only the Jedi Temple stood for longer than a day, but even that bastion of defiance fell under the wrath of the ultimate. On the final day, the high council deemed that to ensure the survival of the Jedi order, the most powerful and zealous of the Jedi would be sent off to establish new, hidden Enclaves around the galaxy. So that one day, the order may rise anew.
Luthor Antilles, with the newly bestowed title of Jedi Master, was one such individual.
Fast forward another six years, and the unchartered snow planet of Valkaina hides deep beneath it's surface the enclave established by the former Republic commander, is flourishing.
