Detailed appearance. Imagery insufficient.

Owecar is a short 5'6" and weighs a little over 150 pounds. His short and relatively sleek stature allows him to fit the smallest of cockpits and weasel his way into the smaller crevices between ships. While on duty, he always wears the standard Republic uniform, with nothing standing out about it other than his rank insignia. 

Report on skills and talents, including level of skill.

Owecar is an ace pilot, haven proven himself in the Great Galactic war, especially in the Battle of Hoth.
Owecar's time spent as a youth makes him a decent droid repairsman. He can repair droid that have basic damage in a timely manner, but he has to consult manuals and search the holonet for answers when it comes to more intensive droid care.
As Owecar works as a team with Essex on repairing and maintain his starship, and knows the difference between his power damper and power modulator.

Report on known combat experience, training and weapons training.

While Owecar has trained with a blaster rifle and pistol, he is far from being adept with them. He barely passed the requirements in the firing range (which may have been fudged due to the need of soldiers at the time) and doesn't own a blaster rifle to this day. He keeps a basic blaster pistol at his side at all times, but it acts only as a last resort, were he to be boarded.

Report on role, specialisation and responsibilities pertaining to the subject’s military deployment.

After his time spent as a pilot in the Galactic War, Owecar switches between piloting Republic transports or flying Aurek Fighters into small skirmishes when the Republic needs to take care of galactic scum.

List and description of other known associates, including subordinates.

T7-E6, or Essex- An astromech droid that Owecar considers one of his best friends. Essex helps Owecar with ship maintenance, navigation, and anything with technology that Owecar can't wrap his head around.

List of known belongings, including but not limited to planetary surface property, civilian and military vessels, vehicles, weapons, tools.

Owecar flew The Iron Tiss'Shar in the Great Galactic War, but now finds himself going from vessel to vessel nowadays.
He keeps a blaster rifle on his hip for some personal protection.
He has owned his astromech droid, Essex, since he was 15.
He owns the several tools required for ship maintenance, as sometimes the things given to him by the Republic can be of "well worn" quality.

List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into restricted database.

Owecar's specialty relies strictly in the sky, and without a ship to fly or a machine to repair, Owecar can offer very little.

Major achievements on record.

Owecar's greatest achievement to date was leading Lima Squadron to take down two high priority Imperial targets in the Battle of Hoth, as well as several other imperial fighter ships.

Major failures on record. Confidential.

Owecar finished his military training with one of the worst accuracy and blaster proficiencies grades in his class.  

Personal biography, as detailed by the subject for use in republic archives. Acquired shortly after last achievement of note. Some details may be used for training purposes.

Owecar grew up yearning to pilot his own ship in space. His dreams originated from his drifter father, Lawshaw Reieat, whose only stayed with Owecar and his mother, Celmon Pitfenn, when he needed to lay low from his smuggling jobs. When Lawshaw was around, he would tell his son about the adventures and wonders he experienced in space. The tall tales he spun filled Owecar with awe, much to his mother's dismay. Celmon was a droid repair woman and wanted Owecar to stay on Coruscant with her when he grew up, not be an outlaw like his father. As much as Owecar loved his mother, he would go against her wishes and train to be a space pilot whenever his father was in town.

However, the love Owecar had for piloting didn't detract from his interest with tinkering. Truly being a product of both his mother and father, Owecar loved playing around with machines almost as much as he wanted to fly. He spent most of his youth helping Celmon out in her repair shop and eventually became skilled enough to be one of her employees. When Owecar was 15, Celmon bought a damaged T7 astromech droid for parts. Seeing this droid as an opportunity to test himself and bring him one step closer to becoming a pilot, Owecar begged his mother to let him keep it to try and repair for himself. After staying many nights late to help her out, lots of grovelling, and a well timed Festival of Life gift, Owecar got his wish and was given the droid T7-E6, which he affectionately called Essex.

It took Owecar two years to make Essex fully functional. This was due to a combination of trying to get familiar with the droid and getting the right parts. But after getting the right perception filaments, Essex was fully online and functional. The two became close quickly, as a young boy would with a new pet. With his astromech fully repaired, Owecar was determined to start his piloting career as soon as possible.

Owecar was limited in the options to make himself a career pilot. One was to start from scratch, buy his own ship and try to sell his services to anyone who he could find. The second was to join an already established ship's crew, hoping one day to reach the rank of pilot. His final option was to enlist in the Republic Navy, where he would get plenty of time in the sky during the Great Galactic War. After a bit of internal debate, Owecar decided the best way to fly in space was to enlist himself into the Republic Navy.

Owecar's mother was not a fan of his plans to join the Navy to say the least. After he that he enlists without telling her, the two got into a huge argument, ending with Owecar storming out of his former home. To this day, he still hasn't returned to talk to make amends with his mother. Relations with his father weren't much better, as he stopped coming by their home since Owecar received Essex. With no one keeping him tethered to Coruscant, Owecar began his training for the Republic Navy immediately. 

Owecar's training was quick, but effective. Due to the combination of the Republic needing pilots and him having a knack for flying, Owecar was approved to fly for the Republic in a little under two years. His first missions were nothing special, a few escort missions here, carrying some cargo there, just rookie level stuff. But the monotony of his work stopped when all available republic pilots were ordered to go to the nearest military base and be ready for the biggest fight of their lives. That fight being The Battle of Hoth.

Owecar was put into the hastily made Lima squadron, made of who was available at the time. Thrust into the heat of battle, Owecar flew an A-wing and more than proved his worth in battle. After an early death of the Lima squadron leader and no chain of command to follow, Owecar took over as the leader and dealt a heavy blow to Imperial forces. Owecar's slick dogfighting skills and leadership led to shooting down the Deference and Storm Fire.

While the overall battle was considered a loss by the Republic, Owecar's achievements were taken note of. He was quickly granted the rank of Petty Officer Second Class. Owecar's piloting skills only continued to grow after that, and with the help of Essex keeping his ships in top condition, Owecar was able to fight in the Galactic War numerous times.

Owecar was repairing his ship from a recent battle when the Sacking of Coruscant occurred. He wonders to this day whether or not his presence in the battle would have helped stop the Imperials or just get him killed.

After the Treaty of Courscant, Owecar figured his dog fighting days to mostly be over. He wasn't happy about the treaty and the probable return to menial work that it entailed, but Owecar eventually found the little things in the tasks he was given to enjoy. He was still flying, and that was all that mattered to him.

<Snipped quote by jeroukoo>

An untrained force-sensitive who knows how to use his powers like this? Seems like a stretch.@Sini

Why is this a strech? All the abilities I have chosen are neutral aligned techniques.

Force Barrier is one of the most basic force powers, at least that I could find. So some applications of the ability doesn't seem unreasonable.

I can see an argument for Force speed, but it is still at a relatively low level. Are there not any documented cases of individuals developing a force powers by themselves to low level extent anywhere in the star wars universe? Can the force only be wielded if trained? The mandalorians know of the force, so I do not think it is unreasonable for my character to try and work on this ability on his own overtime. I can change that in the bio, but I thought sometines a person could just have a certain knack for a particular talent and be able to use it, without and prior training.

The battle meditation has little to real effect as of right now. He does not know how to use it, but since only certain individuals can use this ability, I wanted it to manifest in some way. The capability of him being able to use this force power and the difficulty of learning is what drives him to become desperate to learn it.

If the concept of self taught low level force powers are too much, I can get rid of them.

Why did you include 'Sith' in the name?@Sini

Sorry, it was a name a friend of mine used for a character, I can change it to something else.

This sheet is very problematic to me. We do not want a Force Using space lizard leading the Mandalorians by way of Battle Medition (a Force Technique which cannot be learned on one's own, by the way).@Sini

I said it earlier on in this reply, I just want him to have the capability to learn battle meditation, so I had it manifest in a way that shows he can use the technique, but not in a way to where it has any major effect.

Additionally, Ellri only tentatively agreed on the proviso that your character would cease being a Mandalorian upon joining the ranks of the Jedi or Sith. 
Mandalorian Force Users in itself are a no-no.@Sini

His association would stop eventually, yes. His desire to learn the force stems from wanting his clan to become stronger. I wanted him to be unassociated with the Mandalorians in one of two ways:
1.) He joins a Sith or Jedi because he wants to learn how to master battled meditation. He does so initially with the intention of leaving and returning to his clan as soon he masters it, but eventually warms up to the sith or jedi way of teaching, depending on how the interactions go with his master.
2.) His clan is just annihilated, completely and utterly, forcing him to try and find a home in the Jedi or Sith. How this is done was to be determined in IC. The battle would involve my character trying to use battle meditation to bolster his clan and failing, then managing to escape somehow. Like I said, to be determined in IC.

If anything, the concept as you have it now is likely to be a target for both Jedi and Sith -@Sini

That's the intention. He will be forced to choose a side because if he doesn't, everyone will be out to kill him.

it's an abomination to be cut from the Galaxy.@Sini

If this character and it's concept cannot be tweaked at all to fit the PW, I understand. I told Ellri the same thing when we were trying to think of something to work,  the base concept I want to keep is an unaligned force sensitive who wields a blaster rifle and had the ability to learn battle meditation.

EDIT: Edited to include some things that Ruby suggested, such as plans for IC and a little bit more backstory.

EDIT2: I also added in the force sense ability because to be honest, I just thought it was a thing any force sensitive could do. I don't intend for this to be very strong, and am willing to get rid of it, but I do like the flavor that this ability could add to my posts.

EDIT3: I realized that tier I might imply it is the highest tier. I meant to mean the most basic form. Again, my apologies for not clarifying.
