.:CHARACTER ARCHETYPES
[ + ] The Medic (Combat Medic). He studied biology and medicine under the tutelage of the Jedi Sage Master [member="Maya Carrick"], and learned the art of Force Healing from Jedi Master [member="Ilias Nytrau"]. He might not be the best student, but his skills demonstrate the benefit of having had the best teachers.

[ + ] Weapon of Choice (Heroes Prefer Swords). At the age of 9 years, Zak was cited by [member="Megan Rhymes"] as being one of the best Shii-cho practitioners she'd witnessed.

[ + ] The Rock Star (The Power of Rock). An almost famous boy-band frontman, Zak has performed in front of audiences as part of the Jedi Family Values rock tour.

[+/-] Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass. Yes, Zak really is that dumb, that clumsy, and that foolish. He's also been remarked as one of the best swordsmen of the Jedi Order

[+/-] Ass Kicking Pose. The Makashi Salute.

[+/-] Official Couple. Zak Dymo & [member="Sia Ike-Dymo"].

[ - ] Attention Deficit...Oh, Shiny!. A nerf has a better attention span.

[ - ] Awesome, but Impractical (Never Bring A Knife To A Gun Fight). In a universe full of blasters and Mandalorian Crusades, Zak picks a curved hilt lightsaber and the second form of lightsaber combat, Makashi. This makes him great if you need a hero who can give Errol Flynn a run for his money. If its Mandalorian raiders, you probably want something more practical, like [member="Nefertari Sovint"].

[ - ] Broken Ace (Hurting Hero). Ever since the mission to Cyrillia, Zak has struggled to reconcile the good that Jedi try to do with the harm that they inflict on others.

.:APPEARANCE
An amphibian boy with moss green skin that is marked by a speckling of emerald green spots across the bridge of his nose, rather like freckles on a human. He has 14 tendrils that hang from the crown of the cranium, decorated with reed rings. He wears loose fitting clothes when outside of the water, and had a special set of Jedi robes for use in the water. He prefers to go barefoot when practical.

.:THE FORCE
Alignment: Light
Class/Subclass: Jedi Guardian / Combat Medic
Known Masters: Jedi Knight [member="Nefertari Sovint"]
Contemporaries: Jedi Knight [member="Théodred Heavenshield"]
Known Students: [member="Nyt Rito"], [member="Izama"]

Lightsaber: Riptide
Crystal: Greater Krayt Dragon Pearl
Primary Form: Form II Makashi
Influences: Form V Djem So | Form I Shii-cho
Technique: Wild, imaginative, and random, Zak took to Form I and the basic tenants of lightsaber combat quite well. Under Jedi Knight [member="Nefertari Sovint"], Zak studied and began to practice the Makashi style of lightsaber combat, improving his blade work and coordination. He was also known to study the Fifth Form of lightsaber combat, which he improved upon through lessons with Jedi Knight [member="Cronos Aegir"] and fellow Padawan [member="Megan Rhymes"].

Philosophy: Zak is an active, tactile learner who has difficulty with sitting still, inside voices, or quietly observing something. He wants to be a participant, or to be doing something. Thus, he more readily finds his connection to the Force when engaged in a kinetic activity, such as lightsaber practice, vice a relaxed activity, such as quiet meditation (in which he's more likely to fall asleep or just be bored). Zak's exposure and interest in the various styles and forms of lightsaber combat, and his inherent imagination, give him a unique insight into what applications of form and theory may be best applied to a particular weapon.

.:EQUIPMENT & INVENTORY
Weapons
Riptide (Makashi Dueling Style Lightsaber)

Notable Inventory
Seven-stringed Hallikset
Ankarres Healer Robes (terrestrial use)

.:BIOGRAPHICAL PROFILE

One of any number of Jedi younglings at the Jedi Temple on Ossus, Zak came to infamy when he snuck away on board a Republic drop-ship en route to the Battle of Attahox, and was rescued by Jedi Padawan [member="Uri Aureleos"] after the drop-ship's sudden explosion on the battlefield. The two later became good friends, along with a Selonian Jedi named [member="Aimone"]. Zak would later fight Jedi Knight [member="Nefertari Sovint"], blaming her and all girls for the false advertising campaign of a holo-drama named Midnight that he had believed to be an action movie. Their duel was observed by members of the Jedi Council, who then assigned Zak to Nef as a second padawan learner. Knight Sovint took the youngling with her on a number of adventures and escapades away from the sheltered Temple of Ossus, including the operation to secure Cyrillia, the Jedi Shadow mission to recover lost relics, and the quest for the lightsaber of Qui-Gon Jinn.

Becoming comfortable with traveling off Ossus, Zak participated in a student exchange program through the Jedi Academy Network and was present at the Jedi Academy on Voss, learning under the Order of the Silver Jedi. He was present for the Battle of Mon Cala with the Silver Jedi, and made friends with Silver Jedi youngling [member="Théodred Heavenshield"]. He studied gem cutting and Jedi craftsmanship under the tutelage of [member="Matsu Ike"] and was later apprenticed to the Silver Jedi Knight [member="Abaigeal E'ron"].

Sometime between 844ABY and 849ABY however, Zak had become disillusioned with the Jedi Order and struck out on his own. Voyaging for a time with the pirate crew of the Pineapple, Zak had the opportunity to perform before a large audience when he played at the Galactic Release Event for Endormon GO! He later opened for Krayt Pearl Jam on Sakura Station and found himself picked up to replace Usk-2 when they dropped out of the 848 ABY Jedi Family Values Tour.

Zak returned to the Order of the Silver Jedi in 849ABY, having found some of the answers he'd been looking for, and resumed his work as a Combat Medic among the Jedi.
