HAIR: blue-black
SKIN: light blue
FORCE SENSITIVE: very
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Strengths:
Very strong in the Force as long as he remains in that solemn emotional state that seemed to be every Chiss's default
intelligent like most Chiss

Ascendancy values (emotional restraint; struggles to empathize with others)
Self-reliant
APPEARANCE:
He wears light gray robe, and a hood often covers his face unless with allies and friends. The robe goes down to his thighs, and he wears a white jumpsuit underneath the cloak. He wears tan combat shoes, and a belt to carry a lightsaber, comm, and other stuff. When in a particularly tough battle, Zinayn will take off his cloak for drastically increased mobility. Physique-wise, Zinayn is fit, but not extremely muscular. He is rather slim, but hits still pack a punch with the help of the Force. He wears the sheath of his katana outside his robe (cause it'd look weird if it was inside). The sheath is white with small black dots adorned all over. It is supposed to represent how he isn't completely light or dark, but does tend to lean towards the light, as the majority of the case is white.
BIOGRAPHY:
Zinayn (then Garve'nay'nu) was born on Csilla and was raised by his parents on one of the few surface towns left. However, he didn't get to experience the harsh weather and life up there much, as he was soon brought to the attention of the Syndicure. The Ruling Families discovered his great potential in the Force and began to fight over which family would get the young child. Eventually, as there was no headway made, they deferred to Zinayn's parents, who eagerly gave him to the Irizi family, where they had a cousin-in-law.
The young Chiss began his Sky-Walker training almost as soon as he was adopted, and he hated every minute of it. Sit down, test, repeat. When he finally got to pilot his first ship, all he experienced was a void of darkness and various flashes of light in his mind as he avoided gravity wells in hyperspace. After piloting until the age of 13 without sign of his Third Sight decaying, the Ruling Families began to fight over him again. Before his fate could be decided, a new war erupted. And his parents were drafted. They died an uneventful death aboard a corvette out battling somewhere, he had heard. Or eavesdropped. He ran away soon after, stealing a shuttle and jumping away as Chiss starcraft blazed after him. He made a living by breaking into homes and stealing, rarely being caught on some backwater planet further towards the Outer Rim, but still in the Unknown Regions.
When he turned 18, he was legally allowed to take contracts and bounties. He did so both to earn money and experience, the latter of which has helped to expand his power and skill in the Force to great levels. Zinayn's only Force training at the time had been learning to navigate ships through tangled hyperlanes. He knew little to nothing about the real power of the Force until he was thrown out as fodder by his contractor towards a rogue Jedi. The substantial reward for kill or capture enticed the young man, leading him to take a job past his skill level. The Jedi defeated him handily, but instead of killing him, she had mercy. After leaving the bounty hunting business due to the debacle with his contractor's blatant disregard for his safety, he went into the wilderness of Kashyyyk and lived off of the land for seven years, honing his Force potential and forging it into a weapon. He discovered his limits and broke past them.
Every time he felt like giving up, Zinayn remembered the countless Chiss now scattered throughout the galaxy without a home. Imagined how many were like how he'd been in the streets, uncared for by society. It was then he decided that his life in this galaxy would be one of servitude to his people. And he'd serve them by creating a safe haven for them, where Chiss values and culture could live on, but without the weakness of the destroyed Ascendancy.
He made a home in the Lilaste Order with the High Commander Laphisto, teaching the Force users to harness their power, either dark or light. When the Order was integrated into the Diarchy, Zinayn had a deep distrust of the Sith in command of the faction. As he went on missions with them and fought back-to-back, he began to see that they might not be like the other Sith of the Sith Order. They truly had a dream of bringing balance to the galaxy. Zinayn would remain vigilant, however, as he knew even the most seemingly benevolent might be corrupted by the power they wield.
