I realize that we are on a board that promotes freedom of choice and self development, but I wanted the opinion of some of my fellow Silver Sanctum members on a character idea that I had. I'm not sure if it's original or not, but I would like to see if it is a viable option in this faction.
Máni comes from Midvinter a world lacking in technology and left behind by the events of the galaxy at large. He has a natural force sensitivity, though he believes it to be a gift from his Gods. Due to his upbringing and his beliefs, he has a strong mistrust of technology as a whole and this extends to Jedi Weaponry such as the Lightsaber. Because of his mistrust of the technology and such, he would oppose the idea of wielding such a weapon and as such I think that he would be better suited starting as a warrior for the Sanctum rather than a Jedi Padawan, though I would still like him to be classified OOC-ly as one.
I think it would provide a healthy amount of character development seeing him adjust to the galaxy outside of Midvinter, namely that centered around the Silver Sanctum and their current and future objectives as a faction. I think that seeing him go through this change would provide a wealthy sum of development both mentally and emotionally for the young -impressionable- Valkyri boy.
What I'm thinking is that Máni will begin his story as a soldier for the Sanctum, brought on by his desire to follow the path of his prince, Thurion. In following this, he would undergo challenges to his mental well being as well as that of his very beliefs as a whole. It would definitely be a roller coaster of ups and downs, and I think that it would provide a steady muse with which to build him into the character that I believe he can become.
I guess what I'm asking is this: Is it possible to start as a soldier for the Sanctum and still be under the tutelage of a Jedi? Or do I need to divvy it up into separate chapters of his life?
