Mediator and Arbitrator
PERSONALITY
Cool calm and collected, Tirin is a logical individual who often doesn't show his emotions in a vibrant manner. He is subdued and calculating and languid in nature. He is contemplative and considerate. Tirin is a patient, and understanding individual. He's slow to action preferring to act when he's thought things through. Tirin takes an interest in others rather often. He likes to study people and their behavior. He enjoys thought-provoking activities and problem-solving.
BACKSTORY
Tirin has always been interested in diplomacy. He's never been able to fully understand why his fellow Jedi don't see it as an important part of their mission, but he's learned that sometimes you just have to do what needs doing. When the Council called upon him to become a Consular, Tirin accepted without hesitation. He had always wanted to be more than a warrior. The Jedi were supposed to be protectors, not conquerors. That's what he told himself anyway.
Tirin saw himself as a protector first and foremost, and he felt like he'd found a home where he could serve that purpose. As a Consular, Tirin was always willing to put himself between those in need and the danger they faced. Sometimes, that meant taking a stand against injustice or tyranny. Other times, it meant stepping in front of the most powerful beings in the galaxy for his duty as a Jedi.
Tirin's friends would say he is a bit too laid back for someone so passionate about matters of state. They might also point out that while Tirin is certainly capable, he doesn't excel at any particular aspect of lightsaber combat or hand-to-hand combat. It was his love of politics and diplomacy that led him to seek the title of Consular. It was his compassion that drove him to step up to the plate whenever there was something wrong in the galaxy. His willingness to do whatever it took to keep the peace made him an ideal candidate for the role.
As a Consular, Tirin's training included not only the ways of the Force, but also the arts of diplomacy. He studied history and culture, philosophy and economics. He immersed himself in the sciences of politics and sociology. He learned how to talk to anyone, regardless of their station or beliefs.
He learned to listen to everyone and to take the time to understand what they needed from him before giving it. The order is all he's known as a family from as far as he could remember.
He's lost his former student in combat because they were too headstrong, brash, and wild-natured. Tirin blames himself for not having been able to instruct them better or reign them in better; he Feels his previous mistake may have been being too lenient with his charge and carries guilt about that incident with him. He carries the violet kyber crystal that used to belong to his charge on a necklace pendant.

Meanwhile just leaving the reception area just outside the docking bay was a short young male with long dark winding locks. He'd just returned from a broader dispute on another planet. Though to most He would appear to be a she with a slender form and petite physique. Still appearing very youthful some might even mistake the small slender knight for an adolescent. Bright silver colored eyes seemed to almost glow with a faint blue tinge in contrast to the long inky black, and dark Payne grey tresses that framed the masterfully carved face. Tirin always managed to turn heads when he walked by someone who had yet to meet him. As he made his way into the Halls a much taller male smiled and started over to greet him. The seven-foot-tall man had a large scarred mark on his face which ran down his neck. Tussled messy locks of pearly white hung down every which way.
"Hey~! You made it back in one piece!" the larger man said as he neared.
"Valin I'll have none of your smart remarks today. I'm still a little on edge from when negotiations went south." Tirin warned in an oddly pleasant tone, happy to see his friend.
Standing at only five feet and six inches tall Tirin only came up to the giant's clavicle. Valin raised a large hand and patted Tirin on the back a little rough due to their differences in size.
" So has your mind changed at all yet?" Valin asked with a wily grin gracing his marred features.
"It has not," Tirin stated rather sure of himself. "I Don't care what the elders say I'll not pick a young ling from a single glance. " Tirin stated.
" Auditing classes isn't against the rules and they might let you do the same if you had ever learned to sit still and mind yourself long enough to not be a disruption." Tirin admonished the taller male.
Valin chuckled full heartedly, "Politics and Math are too boring to keep my attention."
"Yes, but they are vital fields," Tirin stated.
"Which is why your border dispute went calmly without a hitch right?" Valin asked as a slightly smug grin started to slip its way onto his face. Tirin reached up and flicked Valin in the nose as if scolding, a puppy.
"That's not funny; lives were lost- and just because some closed-minded feuding few can't see past their own rage and hatred doesn't make it okay." Valin was rubbing at his nose the smile clearly gone from his face he sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry, I wish things had gone better for you." Valin offered.
"I'm sorry too," Tirin added in.
"Sometimes even if you play your part perfectly things don't always work out and you find yourself using a conference table for cover." Tirin sighed.
"I'll pay a visit to the debriefing room." Tirin stated.
"Perhaps later we can sit down and have dinner together? Like old times?" Valin asked.
"Perhaps... We'll have dinner in the mess hall and it'll really be like old times." Tirin said as a grin laced his lips. Tirin's garb may have been looked down upon due to its darker colors but Valin's out blandish unkempt appearance was simply detested by many. Valin decided it'd be best to head to his quarters and put something a little more subdues on whilst he was visiting the temple. The two had plans to start seeking out just whom they wanted to take under their wing. Both of them doubted they would pick a child from their first meeting or from seeing them at a glance from afar. Tirin worked methodically and was planning on putting a deal of work into overlooking the little clans and attending key classes to get a good understanding of the small groups. It may have been frowned upon by some but it certainly wasn't against the rules to wish to see how well a class was doing.
