STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
+Athletic: Ethen has devoted much of his time to becoming and staying physically fit. He's committed to a daily training regiment while at the academy but scales down to some moderate jogging while off world or on missions.
+Skilled Swordsman: Ethen wields his lightsaber with great power and grace for someone his age. He remembers the jealous and sad eye's of the other younglings when he would knock them down during his initiate. He relishes those moments, and they made him want to become even better.
=Ambitious: Ethen's going to be something some day. He's not exactly sure what or when yet, but guaranteed he will.
=Emotional: Ethen, at times, feels strong emotions which he cannot always control. He tries to supress them but they often show when he's in great stress or peril.
-Abrasive: Some hold their tongue when they have to, Ethen can't. Call it rude but he has to speak his mind.
-Impatient: There isn't much more Ethen hates other than waiting, something he's been forced to do a lot since coming to the academy.
-Jealous: Ethen sometimes feels as if he's overlooked. He can't seem to understand why people he sees as inferior are allowed to progress further or faster than him.
APPEARANCE:
Ethen, besides his robes and Padawan braid, looks much like any other human boy his age. His short brown hair is often unkempt, giving him a natural bed head look. Ethen's forearm's are scarred are cut from long hours practising with his lightsaber. If he asked him, he's most proud his deep blue eyes. Ethen says its the one thing he gets to remember his mother by.
BIOGRAPHY:
"It's going to be okay my son, my lovely, lovely boy. You're going to grow up to become a great hero one day and make your mum and dad real proud." - Aurilia Syll saying goodbye to her son.
It was the middle of moisture harvesting season and the unforgiving suns of Tatooine shined brightly over the small Syll farm. While the sole workers, Ethen's parents and the handful of droids, should have been tending to the vaporising machines they were too busy inside the main bedroom. Aurilia Syll laid on the bed screaming while her husband, Caden, stood at her side holding her hand and screaming words of encouragement. It took many hours, but eventually Ethen was born and his parents rejoiced. From then on they worked hard for their son, teaching him everything they knew. It wasn't long until his parents started to notice their son was a little different from other kids. Strange things like floating and moving objects would happen time to time around Ethen and it worried both Caden and Aurilia. His parents knew they couldn't teach their children everything he needed to learn, so they contacted the Republic and had him taken to become an initiate at one of the many Jedi academies across the galaxy. They came the same day they were contacted, quietly shuttling down to the farm to get the boy. His mother and father gave Ethen one last kiss and hug goodbye and his long journey to understand the force began.
"You're training here will not be easy. You must learn meld your mind and body to one and calm your emotions if you ever want to stand a chance against the sith."-Master Ooenek IV during Ethen's orientation to the academy.
A great pit of hatred and despair opened up and swallowed Ethen whole when he entered the academy. Everything he loved or cared about was gone, stripped from him by the Jedi. At first he spoke out almost any chance he had against the Jedi practises, questioning everything they told him. Eventually though, Ethen realized his protest meant nothing. He lived at the academy now, his name sat on a list with many other force users, and almost nothing could change that. So, he devoted himself to becoming the best he could. If Ethen couldn't control whether or not he would become a jedi, he would become the best jedi he could. He buried the memories of his past and replaced them with the jedi code. At the age of eight he took the initial trials where he was taken the Hoth, given a few supplies and pointed in the direction of a strange cave emanating with the force. The trek over was cold and rough, Ethen almost lost his life to hypothermia alone. Finally he reached the cave and inside he found the most beautiful sight he had ever laid eyes on. It was a large crystal deposit, giant stalactites and stalagmites made of force crystal cover the cave. Almost on instinct Ethen drop to his knees and meditate before them. Days past but to the soon-to-be Padawan it was mere moments. The Jedi, thinking the boy had died in the cold, sent people to retrieve the body. What they found was Ethen, cross legged on the floor clutching tightly to a permafrost crystal. Ethen, sitting days in the harsh conditions, still had to be sent to the medic bay once he returned to his academy. Time past but Ethen fully recovered. Upon awakening his instructer had him finish the last part of his initate training, constructing his lightsaber using the crystal he found on Hoth.
A few years have passed since then and although Ethen is a full fledge Padawan, he still awaits a master to take him as apprentice.[WIP]
