Strengths and Weaknesses
- Gett'se-Courage, Nerve
A man now tried and tested through war Davin be Skirata is a man willing to put his life before that of his vode. Picking up where his brother left off, for the few chaotic months after his brother's false death he was forced to fill the boots of an A'lor and though that time was short he learned to appreciate his people much more. His resolve solidified and his nerves hardened washing away the boyish, athletic party animal that was Davin Skirata into a hardened Mando in both body and mind.
[*]Ge'kaan-Military Experience
- Born and raised as a Mandalorian in clan Skirata he has a strong background in firearms and melee combat. He is also an adept at mounted combat, especially on besu'liik. After coming back home from the University of Coruscant he utilized these skills and picked up many more and is fluent in several common languages heard in his line of work.
Mando'a - Huttese
- Rodese
- Toydarian
- Basic
- Understands Wookie
- Understands Binary
[*]Echoy'la-Searching, Mourning
- Ordo's betrayal during the first few years of the One Sith's return to the Galaxy and the subsequent death of his older brother, Gilamar Skirata, left a haastal, a long lasting emotional scar, on his heart. Even after his supposed return from the dead Davin continues to mourn his brother and a deep hatred for the Sith for turning Ordo against his own people. This hatred manifests itself in different ways, none of them positive and it makes the Jedi wary of taking him into their order and has left Davin searching for himself.
[*]Teroch-Pitiless
- Being a mercenary and bounty hunter has taught Davin that giving that extra bit of compassion to the enemy could easily cost one their life. It is something the Jedi he works with don't find attractive in his mindset and is something that may put other non-Mandalorians off and makes him seem cold.

Personality
- Shereshoy-Lust for Life
A lust for life and the enjoyment of each day as it passes, not surprising for someone in his line of work. It guides him in most of his decisions in his daily life and affects how he interacts with others. This state of mind often conflicts with the Jedi Knights and Masters he works with in his quest to understand the Force.
Skills and Abilities
Largely misunderstood by the Mandalorians, the Force is a power as mysterious as the stars themselves. With no formal training Davin has cobbled together a select few abilities in the Force, most of them instinctual or based on some skill he held previously learned. Despite his lack of actual Force Abilities, due to the small amount of skills in his arsenal, the few Force Abilities he has are much more focused and potent. Application of the Force on the self being one of the areas he is exceptionally skilled in making him much stronger physically than one would think for a man of his size and giving him the edge in a long drawn out fight.
- Force Body
- Animal Friendship
- Limited Instinctive Astrogation
- Force Sense
- Psychometry
- Force Tracking
- Basic Force-Based movement techniques
Growing up as a Mandalorian its obvious that Davin has some combat skill. However, even among his Clan his combat is often unnecessarily brutal. Quick and deadly, Davin's strikes come without mercy and without hesitation utilizing a variety of combat styles and weapons especially those of Mandalorian origin. His skill in combat, while often attributed to his father and brother's training, actually comes from his time spent in the wild jungles of Clan Betna where he learned most of his tracking, combat, and firearm skills as well as his animal handling. He also holds a relatively high amount of skill in wielding a lightsaber.

Animal Handling and tracking

There among combat he also developed a strong foundation in animal handling, tracking and hunting.

Biography
Born into the Skirata clan as the younger brother of @[member="Gilamar Skirata"], Davin was very different from his brother. While his brother wanted to learn how things worked and had to work incredibly hard to understand things mathematically, Davin would merely have to read things once to understand, leaving him more interested in the field of battle and sports. It seemed that he was superior to his older brother in every way possible, even completing his right of passage in nearly half the time it took Gilamar.While his older brother and father wandered the stars and Gilamar learned from books and personal experience, Davin applied to the University of Couruscant. Once there he took what he knew of Limmmie and Get'shuk, a Mandalorian game similar to Grav-ball, he played both collegiate level grav-ball and limmie, nearly going pro in the sport that his people loved so much. His father followed all of his games and was his biggest fan.
When his father died, it was a crushing blow to both of the brothers whom were close to their father, though in different ways. Young and ambitious, Gilamar was now a much more experienced fighter and leader, though his father had left his nomination with Davin. The rest of the clan, and even some of the clan heads saw it fit that Gilamar lead the clan. Davin was fine with this, after all, he had the conference championship coming up and he needed time to allow the fact that his father wouldn't be there to sink in.
His father dead and the finals quickly approaching, Davin's performance suffered both on the field. It wasn't until the second half when he saw his father's Heart of Fire in the crowd around his older brother's neck that his mind finally came back together. He pulled his team through to be conference champions that year, his final year. After the game, his Gilamar gave him the necklace telling him how proud he was of him, and how proud their father would have been of him.
After that game, Davin applied to several schools in order to continue his education. Getting accepted into Corellia University, Davin graduated third in his class, with majors in Physics and Engineering under his belt with his Doctorate in Thermodynamics and Programming. After returning home however he found that his brother, whom had once been the lesser when it came to combat was now superior. He had lost his edge living the cushy University life. On his brother's advice he went to the home of Clan Betna and trained for several months with the clan's up and coming Mando'ade, basically starting from the beginning of combat basics.
Returning from his trials on Mykyr, Davin took up the common role of Bounty Hunter, eventually being called by his brother during his time as Mand'alor to join the Mandalorian Supercommandos under a covert operations fireteam.
During the war with the One Sith, his brother fell at the hands of Jasper Ordo, then Dark Lord of the Sith. Trapped in his own grief he left the Mandalorians on a quest to find and kill the new Dark Lord of the Sith and end the war that ended his brother. However at his spontaneous return and the disappearance of Ordo Davin decided to that he would spend his time fighting the Sith where ever he could taking any jobs that would lead him closer to the Dark Lord and the Hands of the Sith.
Eventually this led him to the Kathol Outback where he spent months clearing the Outer Rim territories of monsters, raiders and general evil doers. After they reformed as the Outer Rim Coalition he joined them as a Judge, a Force wielding do gooder who helped keep the peace of the space lanes throughout the new Coalition. He would take time away from the Outback however once the Civil War broke out. He mostly observed but applied his skills when necessary upon request from his older brother, Gil. After Gil's death and Ra's subsequent takeover and midiclorian purge Davin packed as many willing Mandalorians as he could fit in a bulk freighter and fled the planet. Most of the Mandalorians he had smuggled out of the system were Force sensitive children whose parents didn't trust Ra's towering structures reminicent of Sith Temples. Granted that number historically had never been many. But along with those children came parents, brothers and sisters, pets. He dropped them at Kesh and vowed to never return to Mandalore as long as the Death Watch continued to rule.
