Nikola Ticon
Angel from Hell
Jedi training of the traditional sort have never been a point of interest for Nikola. It was far too stuffy and boring, always focusing on the same recycled dogmas and unanswered questions that only seemed to fuel and further the required reading that he had to dig up from the archives every other day. Some was required by his Master, with others assigned through the general schooling available to most through other mediums throughout the Temple on Sullust. It was more than enough to keep anyone busy, and for one that much preferred to be out in the field experiencing things for himself, it was enough for him to imagine hundreds of other things he would rather be doing.
Which was why, often enough, he didn't study in the traditional manner or forewent the practice altogether in favor of more practical ways with which to spend his time. Sometimes he would find summarized recordings or paragraphs and utilize those instead, or disregard what had been assigned and exert himself physically rather than mentally, abandoning time in his quarters for the training grounds within the biodome. It was there he excelled, putting all that he had learned into action. While he might not have been able to recall the name of every past great Jedi Master, he was able to implement what strategies they utilized in order to make himself a more effective combatant. That counted for something.
Unfortunately, however, he wasn't able to escape the confines of his quarters all the time. Such was the case at the moment, as he looked over this or that text. Still his unconventional methods shone through, as he currently was laying sideways on his bed with his abdomen hanging off the edge, holding a datapad in front of his face as he read. Anyone that walked in would view it as a rather strange affair, but most everyone that resided at the Temple likely wouldn't bat an eye. The Galactic Alliance was the chosen place of residence for the outcasts among the Jedi, and he was just another one of those that hadn't found his home among a proper Order.
A quiet sigh escaped him, and he shut the datapad off, blue screen fading slowly to black as he set the piece of technology down on his bed before flipping to land on his feet, standing and stretching momentarily. Running a hand through his hair he paused momentarily to focus entirely on the Force, drawing it into his core and taking his own hold on the incomprehensible energy field, molding it within himself before slowly bleeding it from his form. It was an exercise he had picked up on somewhere, and it always helped to clear his head. With minor effort he called his saber into his hand, clipping it at his belt, about to head off when a knock sounded at his door. His hand waved over the sensor, durasteel sliding smoothly to the side. A crooked grin split across his face. "Hello, Master."
