- [SIZE=11pt]Strengths and Weaknesses: [/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Excellent stealth, be it technological (stealth suit, quiet weapons) or esoteric (mind tricks, taozin amulet).[/SIZE] - [SIZE=11pt]Strong in the Force, comparable to a strong Knight or (in a few cases) a weak Master. Skilled at mental effects such as altering memories, diverting attention, and instilling suicidal/homicidal urges. [/SIZE]

- [SIZE=11pt]No heavy weapons or serious armour.[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Trained to paint targets for various kinds of bombardment.[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Not the best social skills or (ironically) ability to blend in. They can disappear in your base; not so much in a crowd.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]DESCRIPTION[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]The Holloweyes have no substantive memory of their previous lives. They were once Sith or Jedi, presumably; now they’re something new and full of purpose. They’re trusted with the autonomy to pursue their objectives as they see fit. Typically, Lyn selects them based on the desire for a true challenge, but often he also considers whether they have pasts they’d like to forget. A non-negligible fraction of the Holloweyes were volunteers.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]The Holloweyes are specialized Dark Jedi: stealthy mentalists without physical powers, lightsabers, or heavy weapons. They favor ranged engagements. Perhaps that means a dart full of sedative or trihexalon; perhaps that means a precise DOKAW strike from orbit; or maybe it just means a mind trick that drives a target into a mindless rage and gets him killed one way or the other. The Holloweyes take great pride in achieving serious, challenging objectives without being spotted. It’s a good job, if you get job satisfaction from assassinating your way through a rival Force academy unnoticed.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Lyn trained the first Holloweyes in the colossal, unmappable slumblocks of Metellos, his homeworld. They maintain a very quiet presence there.[/SIZE]
