| Gender | Male |
| Height | 1.88m/6'2" |
| Weight | 77kg/170lbs |

Calculating, yellow eyes assess the world around Linjal, whose tall, thin face and perpetual sneer are representative of the upper crust of Zygerrian society. He is tall and slender, but his frame hides rippling muscles.
INVENTORY
PL-18 Standard Blaster Pistol
CP/M-80 class Armed Transport (the Crown)
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
Ambitious and cunning, Linjal divides the galaxy into two groups; those he can exploit, and those he cannot. Accustomed to luxury and the instant obedience of others, Linjal fumes at the hard times he's fallen upon; lusting for a return to his former glory. He is spoiled and a bit of a whiner, but can be incredibly cruel to those who stoke his wrath. Linjal often tries to boss others around, and has a strong sense of self-preservation.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Xuko is a male Zabrak who trained as a Padawan in the year 902 ABY. Two beige horns protrude from his forehead, while smaller spikes occasionally peek through his tousled black hair. His skin is a light brown color, and his Jedi robes are dark brown and simple. He is shorter than many Zabrak males.
INVENTORY
- Standard lightsaber (light blue crystal)
- Basic commlink
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
Xuko's calm demeanor and quiet introspection are atypical of his species, as is his collaborative nature. While many Zabraks could be described as independent or aloof, Xuko is better described as reserved. In many ways, he strives to challenge the stereotypes which his species is known for- most famously, the anger and aggression of the legendary Darth Maul and Savage Opress- and as a result he tries to think before acting. Those who take the time to let him open up to them find a loyal, caring, and firm friend. He values fairness, reconciliation, defending those weaker than him, and understanding.
STRENGTHS
+ Cool-headed: Xuko's patience and calm serve him well; while he's oftentimes value-driven, he can usually be counted on to see the bigger picture. As a result, he's less temperamental than many 18-year-olds.
+ Optimistic: Xuko isn't easily driven to despair, and his species' penchant for survival burns brightly within him. When faced with a difficult situation he is able to draw on a deep well of determination rather than falling into despair.
+ Perceptive: Xuko's tendency to observe rather than act allows him to pick up on nuances that others may have missed.
+ Defense: A result of his late start to training, Xuko has begun learning the ultra-defensive Form III, finding its focus on patience and efficiency suits him well. In a way, this form matches his approach to life- calm, controlled, and observant.
WEAKNESSES
- Undertrained: Xuko's Jedi training began at a later age than most Padawans, leaving him underprepared for the galaxy; especially against other Force-users. He has a strong idea of what it means to be a Jedi, but he's still working on using the Force consistently.
- Naive: Xuko isn't well-traveled and only recently has discovered things like the Holonet. This means that much of his learning comes from the School of Hard Knocks. Additionally, his tendency to see the best in people can leave him open to betrayal.
- Have You Tried Turning it Off and Turning it Back On Again?: Although he's able to operate basic technology such as datapads and commlinks, asking Xuko to troubleshoot or repair technology is likely only going to result in more damage to the item.
- Stubborn: A side-effect of his above-average perception is that Xuko can sometimes put a little too much faith in his own observations; once he's made a judgement or decision, it can be difficult to talk him out of it.
- Offense: While his study of Form III puts him in a good position to defend himself, his offense leaves much to be desired. His lightsaber instructors disagree about whether it is his hyperfocus on defense, or a genuine desire to not hurt others, that holds him back in this area.
HISTORY
Hailing from a secluded colony on the planet Iridonia, Xuko was not discovered as a Force-sensitive until after his 14th birthday, leaving him far behind his peers and also ignorant of the galaxy at large. However, his calm demeanor and willingness to learn meshed well with Jedi training, and after about three and a half years he was granted the rank of Padawan in the Jedi Order.
