[color=778899]STRENGTHS[/color]
[color=778899][+] Duelist:[/color] Strakhan is an accomplished fighter, particularly with swordsmanship. Before his accident, he had been privy to the old fashioned sword duels that were once popular with the nobility of his world. After obtaining a lightsaber once he was a cyborg, he took careful practice in lightsaber combat forms, seeming to have a preference for Makashi. He is also a formidable opponent in hand-to-hand combat.
[color=778899][+] Tactician:[/color] Strakhan did not rise to the rank of commander without having an eye for tactics on the battlefield. He has training as a soldier to know how to plan for most battlefield situations, but can be variable as war becomes chaotic.
[color=778899][+] Augmented:[/color] His cybernetic arms gives Strakhan a greater upper-body strength than his normal human compatriots. He can easily lift weight beyond the peak human limit.
[color=778899]WEAKNESSES[/color]
[color=778899][-] Cybernetic Disorder:[/color] The catch for every cyborg is the fact that their cybernetics can prove troublesome when they become damaged or inactive. At best, Strakhan could have the loss of one of his arms. At worst, the bionic lungs keeping him alive could cease function, slowly killing him.
[color=778899][-] Suffer not the Sorcerer:[/color] Strakhan does not work well with others whom he knows are Force Sensitive. He finds that their supernatural abilities are a crutch to their pure, physical might and their religious wars have marred the Galaxy far too many times.
[color=778899][-] Death to Traitors:[/color] Strakhan could care not if human or aliens are among his cohorts, but he is highly intolerant of those who are disloyal or traitorous to the Empire.
[color=778899]PERSONALITY[/color]
Strakhan is a very stern, but patriotic man. He sees the potential in a rebirth of an Empire that followed the New Order of Palpatine, should it be removed of the Humanocentric and Sith theocracy. He sees an Empire that will bring order to a chaotic galaxy. However, he is strict and does not tolerate failure or traitors. He additionally has a hatred of Force Users, as he sees a large portion of the bloodshed and war in Galactic history as a result of religious feuds between Jedi and Sith, or their counterparts. He is still very much a human, and will show a kinder, softer side should one look past the cyborg he has become.
[color=778899]BIOGRAPHY[/color]
Almost 40 years ago, a male child was born to the Strakhan Family of Eriadu. The Strakhans had roots deep into Galactic history, having a long history of servicemen and servicewomen in the respective Republic, Galactic Empire, and Fel Empire. They had been hold overs who still clung into pro-Imperial ideals, but dialing back the Humanocentrism and Sith cultism. The young man Strakhan grew up similarly, being taught the history of Galactic conflicts. Strakhan was groomed to eventually become a soldier, to be among the rest of his ancestors.
Young Strakhan got his chance when a blossoming remnant of pro-Imperialists were recruiting. Strakhan’s remnant eventually consolidated and joined up with the Imperial Remnant under Tanomas Graf, which declared itself the “Third Galactic Empire”. Over the course of his service to this newly restored Empire, Strakhan served as a field officer, eventually being granted the rank of Commander. But, one battle nearly cost him his life, as he had taken the near-brunt of a fragmentary grenade. The impact broke both of his arms beyond repair, and shrapnel embedded his lungs.
Thanks to a quick save by the field medic, he was able to be stabilized. Strakhan, at the time weak, was able to tap into his family’s wealth and resource, undergoing surgeries to cybernetically replace his lungs and arms. In the course of this, he decided to remake himself, deciding to make himself the next in the line of cyborg military commanders that began with figures like Vader and Grievous. In the waning days of the Third Empire, Strakhan rejoined the battlefield, sporting a lightsaber he had claimed from a Jedi foe and remade to his specifications. When most of the elements of the Empire collapsed and joined the First Order, Strakhan instead chose to go his own way, joining up with the Pentastar Alignment. He views the First Order as theocratic pretenders to the Empire’s legacy. He now seeks to remake the Empire that was lost...
