Ken Sol

[Warren Century]

Name: Ken Sol
Loyalties: Bodyguard of Sirius Nova.
Role: Mentor

Development Threads: If Required

Age: Ninety Five
Species: Narrikian

Appearance:

''
Sir Ken Sol wears a white and gold robe that he has hand sown. This worn by him all of the time. Ken Sol stands at about Five Foot Six. His hair is white colored, and his eyes are gold in colors. Blue glyphs on his body show that he prefers the Light Side of the Force and is fairly good at it. Ken Sol has a set of Lightsabers belted at his waist.

Personality:

Ken Sol is an honor bound and grizzled veteran of many years. Very dutiful, Ken Storm pushes his students to learn more about the Force. Ken Sol is an individual who has a love of teaching people about Martial Arts, the Force and his own style of Lightsaber combat that he personally has access to. Ken is an opponent who while he uses the Light Side of the Force he will resort to dirty tactics on his opponents in order to win. While he has had a lifetime of experience, he knows there is always more that he can learn. Ken Sol is protective of his protege, Sirius Nova. Should someone assault Sirius he'd attack them with every ounce of fighting skills that he has in his arsenal. While Ken knows that new ways have their advantages he prefers to put his thoughts, and training methods down using the old ways, of parchment and ink because he doesn't want some aspiring hacker to steal his life's work, in a mere matter of seconds by pushing some buttons. This doesn't mean he is against technology, he just doesn't personally operate computers but leaves that to those who know how to do so.


Force Sensitivity: Knight

Weapon of Choice:

Ken Sol has two rapier-styled lightsabers. In addition to that, he has a wooden staff that is reinforced. Throwing stars are kept up his sleeves, in large numbers should he need them, as well as a couple of Shoto Sabers should he need them.


Skills:


Combat Driving
Gymnastics
Acrobatics
Force Lightning
Art of Movement
Force Push
Force Pull
Telekinesis
Force Healing
Art of Concealment: A technique that Ken Sol has developed for himself. While it is similar to Force Cloak, this technique is not one the Jedi have ever used because it was made over years of study. Not only does it mask sound and visibility to the normal eye but when he is using this, his force signature is suppressed. Unfortunately when he is using this, he cannot use the force as much as that would ruin the concealing his force presence part.
Aerokinesis
Force Whirlwind
Dampen Presence
Force Persuasion







Wealth: His wealth is provided by the Narrikian Emperor, Sirius Nova. While not obscenely wealthy, he's well off.

Combat Function: NPC Force Knight/Body Guard

Notable Possessions:

Blank Scrolls
Ink
Quills
Rebreather/Gas Mask
Wooden Rod
The Aegis [Land Vehicle, will request in Factory once he's approved.]

History:

The Title of Master Sol has been passed down from generations of Narrikians. Ever since the First Emperor Apollo decreed that there would be a master of the Lightside and a Dark Side Master to accompany the Emperor and serve as his right hand and his left hand Force Users have craved the honor. Ken Sol was a retired Force Master who had retired from the service of the Emperor in order to study the deeper workings of the Force.

But when he got a personal request from Sirius to come out of retirement and mentor him in the Force, well one could hardly disobey the Emperor. So he's accepted and decided he'll do his best to train Sirius in the arts of Lightsaber Combat and the Force as best he can. Ken is trying to learn enough to become a master of the Force while he trains Sirius.



Intent: This character will serve as a head body-guard to Sirius, and also his right hand.

Hello, [member="Sirius Nova"]. This is going to require a bit of work. What follows is the first round of edits I will be requesting. There will likely be more to come, but we'll just start with these to keep it from being overwhelming.

Weapon of Choiceual Lightsaber Scimitars, Light Shield.

Please provide links to these technologies. If none exist, you will be asked to remove them.

Variety of Light-saber weapons.

You will need to be more specific here. What types of lightsabers? Long hilt? Dual-phase? Curved hilt? Light-whip? List them, though keep in mind if he is proficient in all of them there may be more editing or development required.

Combat Function: NPC Force Master
Force Sensitivity: Knight

You refer to Ken as both a Knight-level NPC several times in the submission, but also indicate he is a Master elsewhere. Please read through it and update this for consistency, it may be easier to refer to him as Sirius' mentor rather than master to avoid confusion.

Force cloak, also known as Force camouflage, was a rarely seen Force Talent involving the manipulation of light and sound waves to render a practitioner virtually invisible to the naked eye. This technique was found mainly among members of the Jedi Order before the rise of the Galactic Empireand the destruction of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Despite the loss of knowledge among the Jedi, the technique of cloaking oneself in the Force was perfected by the Disciples of Twilight, a mysterious sect based on the Outer Rim moon Dyspeth. The technique was recreated by Master Ken Sol through years of dedicated study in the Force.

This is a direct copy of the Wookiepedia article on Force Cloak. I'm going to have to ask you to remove it, as its presence here constitutes plagiarism.

Blank Scrolls
Ink
Quills

Is there a particular reason Ken Sol relies on parchment, ink, and quills for writing as opposed to more traditional means? Please address this in his personality if so. If not, I highly recommend removing this. Narrikians appear to have access to sufficiently advanced technology as a race, so his using inkwells and feathers to take notes seems out of place especially in the context of the entire Star Wars setting.

I have made all the edits you want, though is adding in his other weapons later once I have subbed them acceptable or not in terms of the Lightsaber Cutlass which is sorta like this but has an actual blade.

 

[Ugoto Chivaro]

[member="Sirius Nova"]

Can you provide canon examples of lightsaber blades being able to curve in the shape of a cutlass, axe, or scythe? These are not real lightsaber weapons as far as I can tell.

Motorcycle
Hoverbike

If he owns a hoverbike, why would it be necessary to also own a primitive version of the same technology?

Combat Function: NPC Force Master

Please change this to NPC Knight.

Alvas - V: The personal Lightsaber style of Ken Sol that involves him wielding a set of twin Lightsaber cutlass blades, combining them with martial arts, his stealth and various Force Powers. A balanced Lightsaber style that has been created by Ken personally for his own use, it's not something most could perform.
Vetron-I: A style that uses Art of Concealment, gymnastics and acrobatics to move across the battlefield at rapid speed nearly invisible. This allows him to attack his opponents at high speeds. The Vetron-I style could be comparable to "Ninjitsu" in terms of fighting style and speed. This fighting style is one that he saves as a last resort.

Custom lightsabers are not appropriate for NPCs, particularly those without previous development or under master rank. You will have to remove these as well.

Example of Light Axe, shown here.

So just to confirm, you want him to lose his two styles of Lightsaber Combat that he has which were there as the Narrikians don't have information on the typical Jedi/Sith Lightsaber styles, so they had to come up with their own?

Okay, the light-axe can remain.

you want him to lose his two styles of Lightsaber Combat that he has which were there as the Narrikians don't have information on the typical Jedi/Sith Lightsaber styles, so they had to come up with their own?

Yes. This was the answer I got from the Codex Administration when I inquired about NPCs with custom lightsaber styles.

Force Lightning Art of Movement Force Push Force Pull Telekinesis Force Healing Art of Concealment: A technique that Ken Sol has developed for himself. While it is similar to Force Cloak, this technique is not one the Jedi have ever used because it was made over years of study.

I count eleven Force Powers listed here. Being that this is an NPC, he does not require that many abilities, nor should he have that many at Knight rank. If you would like him to be approved with an additional development thread, please lower the number of Powers to five or six. If you would like him approved without development, please lower the number of powers to three or four.

You're also going to need to list the sources for the two images you've used in this submission.

 

[Warren Century]

Will you archive this char, as I've decided to rework his entire concept, and put a few dev threads into it?

 

[Ugoto Chivaro]

[member="Sirius Nova"]

Moving to archive.
