(Note: The glowing eyes are purely for aesthetic visual effect, and do not generally appear to glow. The abstract 'aura' in the background is intended to be suggestive of what someone who sees through the Force--such as a Miraluka--might see, but is otherwise imperceptible.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
+Pain Threshold: As is somewhat typical of Iridonians, Saevio's ability to endure physical pain is impressive.
+Multilingual: Saevio speaks, reads and writes fluent Galactic Basic Standard, Ul'Zabrak, and has a less practiced, more limited comprehension of Sithese. He also has some comprehension of Binary, Huttese, Mando'a, and Ryl.
+Martial Arts: Having been born and bred into Iridonian warrior society, Saevio is highly trained and capable in martial combat, primarily in the disciplines of K'thri and Teräs Käsi. By extension, he's also quite skilled with bladed weapons and polearms.
+Acute Senses: Be it a consequence of his upbringing, his detail-oriented nature, and/or his sensitivity to the Force, Saevio tends to enjoy a heightened awareness and an ability to notice subtleties that others may easily miss or overlook.
+Physical Attributes: As a result of genetics, training, upkeep, and life on Iridonia, if not also the Force's capacity to augment such attributes, Saevio enjoys thoroughly developed speed, dexterity, reflexes, stamina, strength, and toughness.
+Artisanship: Saevio comes from a lineage with a long and celebrated tradition of bladesmithing, and has thus inherited the craft as his primary profession. By extension, he's also been educated in the fields of geology, crystallography, and alchemical metallurgy.
+Animal Affinity: Saevio tends to have something of a natural latent connection with, and understanding of feral beasts--a gift that has helped him become an accomplished hunter and Reek rider among his clan.
Introverted: Saevio has no qualms about not being counted among the most amiable or socially gifted of individuals, as he tends to be most comfortable with the solitude of his own thoughts, musings, and feelings. While this may help to keep him focused, self-reliant, and independent, it may also prove quite the obstacle when it comes to dealings with others, as well as building and maintaining relationships.
Perfectionist: Being as detail-oriented and meticulous as Saevio tends to be can be a burden as much as it is a blessing. While on the one hand this perfectionist nature certainly lends itself to producing quality results in his endeavors, it also lends itself to a certain degree of obsessiveness that may ultimately impede steady progress.
-Poor: Saevio currently does not have much in the way of financial security, nor does he have many monetary resources at his disposal.
-Sleeping Disorder: While it may only be considered a mild case of insomnia to some, Saevio suffers from an inconsistent ability to get adequate sleep, sometimes leaving him drowsy, irritable, and fatigued.
-Conspicuous: Largely due to his outward appearance and manner, Saevio tends to stick out like a sore thumb and doesn't blend in well at all, making him an easy target to spot or find should anyone be searching for him.
-Extensive Scar Tissue: Saevio dons an impressive collection of scars from his elaborate tattoo work and from damage sustained throughout his life thus far. These old wounds can be opened up quite easily.
-Melee Preference: Saevio isn't very proficient or experienced with most modern ranged weaponry, and is instead inclined toward melee combat, which tends to put him at a significant disadvantage in a firefight.
-Specist: Saevio may generally regard non-Iridonians (and perhaps even other Zabrak who may not necessarily be natives of Iridonia) with a certain measure of irrational disdain; dealing with the many other species throughout the galaxy can thus become that much more complicated.
-Spice Abuse: Saevio has developed a cigarra smoking habit, often including Ambrian Cheroot and/or Grey Gabaki as part of his cigarra blend. He's also been known to use Yarrock in ritualistic or ceremonial fashion--an Iridonian tradition which has been known to affect the nueropsychological health of habitual users.
-Dark Side Corruption: The sulfuric hue of his irises is quite obviously unnatural, and for the moment the most overt indication, to those familiar with such things; continued and increased exposure to the dark side of the Force will most certainly begin to manifest more detrimental indicators with time.
APPEARANCE
Saevio's body is a roadmap of pain and progress, indelibly adorned by both battlescars and intricate tribal patterns. The traditional jat'o and jat'i tattoos that cover his head, face, neck, chest, back, shoulders, and arms are done in jet black ink atop raised skin that is a common result of the Iridonian technique that tends to scarrify the flesh--each pattern interwoven into the next, all of which are significant and representative. The vestigial crown of black horns atop his head protrude about 3 to 4 inches out from his skull, and appear to be routinely sharpened and polished. He stands slightly taller than the average Zabrak and maintains a lean, athletic frame, though he deliberately forfeits greater muscle mass for the sake of increased quickness and endurance. The acrid, spicy aroma of cigarra smoke tends to linger about him, and he is often seen veiled in a smoky haze. He tends to wrap himself in loose-fitting hooded robes--rather pedestrian and drab--that are a bit tattered with frayed edges, and usually a combination of darker earth tones. However, should the occassion call for it, one of his most prized possessions (and indeed one of the few things he owns of much monetary value) is a set of hand-crafted ceremonial Iridonian battle armor, which while offering minimal protection by modern armor standards, affords him greater range of movement and concealability beneath his usual loose-fitting attire. While somewhat soft-spoken, his voice is also a bit raspy (perhaps due in part to his smoking habits) and still bears a fairly thick accent that betrays his Iridonian roots. His gaze is often half-lidded, as if to suggest an outward sense of indifference or disinterest in those he may be associating with.
BIOGRAPHY
Saevio is a descendant of the Nek'Vyshtal clan of Iridonia, so named for their aptitude for battle, as well as their connection to the historical Sith presence that had long established itself on the planet dating back thousands of years. While most off-worlders might regard him as something of an outlier, Saevio is actually not very atypical within the culture he hails from. Like his family and heritage, he is strong, proud, naturally atuned to the Force, and steeped in archaic tradition. From childhood, he was cast into and forged by the crucible of combat, molded by thousands of years of Iridonian warrior society. From his father, a renowned artisan of his craft, he inherited the art of bladesmithing, along with the ethics and knowledge of the trade that have been passed down within his clan for generations. Since his mother passed, old age has finally begun to take its toll on his father now, who lies bed-ridden and dying. Obligation now demands that he take over what his father will leave behind: responsibility for an old, forgotten shrine--a relic of a Brotherhood of the past, and his bladesmithing legacy.
