RP Sample:
Zhane's hit the wall back first and fell to the floor, quickly placing his hands in front of his body to break most of the fall. He flipped forward and came down with both lightsabers but the attack was parried, Zhane then raised his right leg and gave a hard push kick to the chest of Zen and knocked him back to the grounded. Zen rolled from his back and up onto his feet but Zhane quickly came in and slapped his right saber down onto Zen only single saber and knocked it down a bit and his second saber was brought over and it cut through the hilt of Zen's saber. Zhane quickly kicked Zen in the chest and knocked him back against the wall and he fell down to the floor. Zhane closed up his left saber and he slowly walked over to Zen who was trying to stand to his feet. "Your crimes against the Jedi have resulted in my actions today. I was sent here to retrieve you ALIVE and that's what i am going to do. You've tried your hardest to ensure that you escape or that i kill you.. but i am a jedi." he spoke with a heavy breath after each few words as he was tired from the fight. Zen came to his feet quickly but Zhane raised his saber to the dark jedi's throat and he quickly went stiff. "You will return with me to coruscant and you will pay for your crimes." Zen made a quick move and dodged past the saber and attempted to run but Zhane used his force power and pulled a big metal box through the air and it crashed into Zen's head and he fell to the floor out cold. Zhane attached his saber to his belt and he sighed a little as he began to walk over to the dark jedi and grab him, dragging him out to the ship.

YEAR ONE
The planet of hoth was his birthplace but before the story begins its important to note that he never had a father and never really got a chance to know of a great male figure in his life up until he reached the jedi training. He was born to his mother Yaris Vin Korr. His father had left his mother once he had the news of her pregnancy. Yaris was forced to raise the child on her own since she had no family with her and her job didn't offer much so raising the child would be even more difficult. Once he was born she did her best to take care of him. Making payments and keeping food seemed to be a struggle and she wasn't around much because of work but she managed to find people to watch over her child. Yaris wasn't a fantastic mother but she got an a for effort.
She missed her childs for steps and words due to work but once Zhane became mobile he was a little terror as he managed to get into everything he could find and made a mess of the house all the time. He loved to climb onto things and pull things down all over the floor. His first year held a lot of laughter and joy for him as he discovered his hands and feet and spent countless hours being amazed by them and then of course he discovered his nose and on many occasions he tried to pull it off of his face so he could see it properly. He was a really adorable little baby through out his first year of life as he learned to crawl, walk and speak a few words.
YEAR TWO
His second year was like the first but to him it was much more exciting as he learned new words and of course began to run and trip and fall into things. He began to learn to jump from places and fall and get hurt and this year was also the year that he learned that stairs were a bad thing to fall down. He broke his arm during his second year but he was pretty much all right after this as the ever rotating amount of people would teach him different things such as strange new words and hand motions along with what different body parts are and what different objects were. Zhane learned quickly, he always had and always would learn quickly. His had broken his arm at about half way through the year so he spent most of the rest of the year at a slow pace but that didn't slow his mind.
Once he knew it hurt to run and fall he became looking at things like books and boxes, toys and everything else he could find to learn from and his speech continued to grow. Before he reached his third year he could speak such words as mom or mama or mommy, along with food, tired, sleep, bed, water, drink and so on, basically the essentials. He always seemed to learn something new from the different people that would watch over him for his mother. Although he mother never got to see a lot of her sons first things she still loved the child and care very much for it.
YEAR THREE
His arm would heal early in this year and his speech would progress along with many other things as he began going outside a lot more and exploring some things with supervision of course. His third year was the first year where he saw things like raiders or mercenaries along with guards and criminals, blasters and people that were much worse off than him. He wasn't scared when he saw bad people in fact he was more interested than anything else as he seemed to understand that some people had done things wrong but he didn't fully understand yet that bad people were punished for some of the things they were done. Zhane's mother wanted to shield him from a lot of the outside world because it was so bad and terrifying and she didn't want her baby boy being exposed to some of the things the galaxy had to offer.
The next year would be the most life changing so far for the young child but he didn't know that just yet nor did anyone else, The boy progressed with the things he was being taught by sitters and learned more and more and before the year passed he was a very good speakers with the ability to have a bit of a conversation with someone as he loved to talk more than anything else. He impressed everyone he saw with his ability to never shut up, although it was absolutely adorable to see someone so little talking on and on it could give you a headache.
YEAR FOUR
This would be the year that the young boy was discovered by a jedi passing through and looking for some shelter. The jedi had traveled quite some time and was weary from battle and flying so he took shelter in the little camp where the boy was but he was first drawn here due to the sensing of the boy. The jedi whom was named Ep Kane quickly found the child as Zhane was out with his supervisor exploring the great vast 5 square foot of snow he was playing in. The jedi Ep Kane approached the boy and his supervisor and began to ask a few questions and learned that the boys mother was away for a days work so the jedi kindly ask to stay and wait for the mother. Once Zhane's mother returned home Ep had already done a midichlorian count. The jedi spoke with Zhane's mother but she didn't want to let her child go so she asked Ep to let her think about it.
She knew that he would go with Ep to the jedi temple and everything but she didn't want to miss her baby but in the end she knew that she needed to let him go. The boy would never get another chance like this to make something of his life. Yaris like Ep take Zhane with him early in the fourth year and the two quickly returned to coruscant. Ep reported his finding of the boy and the completion of his assigned task. The boy was looked over and then given a go ahead to start his training. The entire way from hoth to coruscant, coruscant to the jedi temple and all during times where he should of been quiet Zhane was asking silly little questions and being a very curious child, asking where he was going and what he was going to be doing and things like that.
YEAR FIVE
He began his training as a youngling and began to learn things that he never knew were possible such as lightsabers and simple force training. Blaster deflection was a good one to learn of course and he began to learn the very basics of things like sense and telekenisis powers. He really seemed to enjoy his training as he progressed and began showing really nice potential. Zhane's form seemed very nice as he began to learn, not perfect of course but he picked up on it quickly. He loved his lightsaber training exercises but he really seemed to favor the force training exercises more than anything else as he moved through his training sessions. The training in sensing and telekinisis was something he really enjoyed and as good as his saber form was his ability to pick up on the use of the force was even better.
With each training session he seemed to take something from it was all younglings should. Over the years he would show great potential and progression if he moved at this pace. He moved toward the top of his classes and although it wasn't a race and he by no means was intending to beat anyone else to the finish it was nice for him to be noticed for his skill in the arts as a youngling. To say that he didn't notice someone talking about his progression would be a lie but he didn't concern himself with impressing, just doing what he was told instead.
YEAR SIX
Progression and and devotion would be the two main things shown by the youngling in this year. As Zhane was watched he seemed to be very devoted to his work as his some of his sleeping time and bits of other time were used to practice bits of the force even when he was not in class. He was young but he knew jedi could be power, saying this does not meant that he sought to be a super power jedi but instead a good jedi as he thought a good jedi was a strong jedi. His training continued and he continued to advance with his lesson in his force power. He imagined himself in the future as a jedi that was looked up to by all the younglings because he always looked up to the jedi that were walking around the jedi. Zhane wanted to be one of those super tall guys with the awesome brown robs and big lightsabers
but the boy knew he had to earn that through training, devotion and determination and that was just what he was going to do because being a big jedi was something that he wanted and he knew he could achieve if he worked hard enough over the years. He wanted to go on missions and save the galaxy from bad guys with his lightsaber so he continued to train with that being his goal for all of the training, to be a high ranking super awesome jedi that saved the galaxy from bad things, Check.
YEAR SEVEN
His desire to become a real jedi only grew as he learned more and more through his lightsaber and force training as a youngling. Zhane would see a jedi return from a mission and he would hear about what had happened and hope to one day help people the way these jedi did. By his seventh year his progress was quite impressive and he seemed to be a bit ahead of where he was expected to be. Although his strength wasn't his best attribute in training it was still up there but his speed was the most well known attribute he had. Zhane was Strong and intelligent but upon everything else he was fast, his saber movements were so quick and fluent, he was fast on his feet and rarely ever standing still for a more than a few seconds.
Zhane thought the constant movement could help you in a fight if you ever needed it. Through out that year of his life he began to lean toward his teachers and seek the deeper meaning in his training, He began to ask about the future a bit more too and the past as well, wondering about past Jedi and what the future would be like for the galaxy with the jedi watching over it. Teacher's didn't always seem to like him asking so many questions but he got his answers one way or another. Zhane was always curious about the next step in his life and where that would lead him down a better path to understanding the way of the force just a bit better. Zhane didn't believe that there was an end to training, He simply believed that there was always more to learn, even at his age.
YEAR EIGHT
By this year he would be seen as an exceptional youngling and well on his way to a great jedi future. Zhane never seemed to doubt the ways of the force and this in turn allowed him to always focus on the task at hand as he would never question his training or the meaning behind the smallest of lessons. His eighth year was the first year in which he really began to look forward to having a master and learning so much more about the force. As he was before, The ways of the actual force were more interesting to him than a use with the lightsaber, His force power was his favorite attribute of his, Over his years in training he seemed to push his force power further than his saber technique but he tried his hardest in both areas but it would seem as though he prefered to use the force.
Why use the lightsaber to cut down someone when you could use the force to just disable them long enough to end the fight? That's what he was thinking. Killing someone is something that he didn't believe was right regardless of his position as a jedi, If it were someone that was a real danger he knew he would finish the task but he would really try to avoid killing another His training would always show him something new and with each year he became a stronger jedi, even though he was a youngling he knew that one day he would be a proper jedi and that he would do the good in the galaxy he had always wanted too.
YEAR NINE
In his ninth year he would of course continue the training of the first form but he grew more and more curious about other forms with the lightsaber so he began to ask about them and study them, study them meaning reading not actual practice with the lightsaber, He wanted to know where they came from and why they were used in the jedi order. In this year he would show more of a favor toward his saber technique and training than his force use and he would catch up the slack and just about even out his skill with both the saber and his force power. Zhane's knowledge of the force would continue to grow as he trained like all the years before but as he was watched during training he had the utmost respect for the force along with an unwavering determination to be a good jedi. His only real fear was the fear of not being a good jedi, Not being the best jedi he could be but he knew that if he continued to train and obey his masters that he would be just fine.
In this year he met a jedi named Carmen Shiek, She was a Twi'lek Jedi Knight of some years. Zhane met Carmen when she came into one of his classes to ask a question. This was there first meeting as the teacher would introduce Carmen and to the class. Zhane would not see the female again for a while but he would see her again in the future for a great time but he of course did not know this year. With such a high midichlorian count like the one that Zhane had it was no surprise that he was such a good student of the force but even still he seemed to surprise others not just with his skill and technique but with his focus and determination, it was a feature that was hoped to stay with him as he progressed in his jedi training. Zhane would make a great padawan learner for any jedi knight or master as he would always listen to orders and obey them to the fullest.
YEAR TEN
Through his years as a youngling he had always shown most interest in force powers but in his tenth year he would begin with an even heavier determination to learn about more force powers but this of course was in his little free time as he would never focus on a thing but his training during his classes, However some force powers stood out more than others to him and once he had a master he would begin asking about them or training in them. Hi Saber technique progressed very well as he tried to remain balanced in his use of the force in his tenth year. As the youngling grew older in age his beliefs about fighting would change slightly, Zhane thought now that you could be a great force user but a jedi with great force ability and saber technique could defeat you and a dead jedi is not a good keeper of the peace.
Again in this year he saw the Jedi Knight Carmen Shiek and for the first time he spoke directly to her and asked her where she came from and a few questions about the force but she soon returned to her works and Zhane continued his training. He would always see jedi passing through the temple and a lot of them looked the same with the brown robes and braids, along with the long hair and beads, things such as this but what really interested him was the missions they went on. So many Jedi came through the temple taking on missions and returning with news of missions completed so Zhane wondered how many missions could really be out there to complete. He had never left the jedi temple so he knew nothing of the galaxy and he didn't even really remember being home, If he had a memory it was so vague that it would never matter and besides, he knew the jedi code, his upbringing, his home, his mother or any family he ever had were of no concern to him, he was going to be a jedi master some day.
YEAR ELEVEN
Zhane was closing in his youngling years and not to long from now he would become a padawan. Hi exceptional skill with a saber and the force already told many that he would be accepted as a padawan learner and not sent anywhere else like the corps. Some were proud of his progression over the years but Zhane himself would just continue to train and focus, he wanted to become a padawan and advance himself completely in the ways of the force. All of his training so far, all of his years spent in classes were amazing, he couldn't have hoped for a better life but he knew that this was only the very basic beginning to the jedi ways. Once he was a padawan he knew that he would learn ten times this much and then when he was a jedi knight he would learn ten times as much as he learned while being a padawan and he of course knew that as a master of the force there could be no end to training and learning. Zhane wanted to train for as long as he lived.
Through great amounts of meditation, training and belief he would become a fantastic jedi. In this year though he would also begin to wonder who his master would be, he didn't spend that much time thinking about it but it was still a thought as he would see padawan's and there masters constantly in the temple. It didn't matter much to him but he hoped that he would get a highly skilled master that would train him harder than anyone else ever had. The ways of the force were never ending, A jedi could spend a thousand years studying the force and never complete training and that's just the way Zhane would think, his training was endless and that never kept him from trying his hardest.
YEAR TWELVE
He knew at the beginning that in just one short year he would be a padawan learner under a master that would show him ways to the force and things in the galaxy that he had never seen. Zhane had exceeded all hopes of hi teachers and really impressed. He never questioned his teachers or his teachings and he moved through his last year with nothing but respect for his learnings and those that taught him. One might think that made he had a question or two about the reasons behind things but he didn't, Zhane was just born to be a good jedi although others might see his ability to obey every order as something that would make him a great soldier but he would disagree. Zhane knew he was to be a jedi. Zhane didn't want to be the jedi that changed the force forever or the jedi with the biggest and most well known name in the galaxy, he simply wanted to better himself through training in the force and help others when he was old enough and his time came.
He wasn't sure if most other younglings were thinking about becoming a teacher one day but he had hopes for this. Zhane had always gotten along with his classmates but he never seemed to talk to them much as he thought his training was more important but of course when a jedi knight or a jedi master came along he would always try and talk because he knew that your elders could always teach you something. As his year closed he knew he had done his best as a youngling and he knew that he would only get better. His training had been the best thing that could of ever happened to him and he couldn't be happier to have been found and taken to the jedi temple. Zhane knew this was his fate, his destiny.
YEAR THIRTEEN
His wait was finally over and his time had come, Zhane would become a padawan learner, all that was left was deciding his master and of course it would be decided that the best choice for a padawan of his talent would be a jedi that once showed much of the same skill, Carmen Shiek. The two had met before but neither thought that they would be a padawan learner and master combination but both were happy to accept. Carmen wanted a padawan learner and Zhane had always wanted a master. Zhane took to his new master and began his training with her. It was even better than he had expected. Carmen had much to teach Zhane and he was more than willing to learn everything she knew. he would ask her about different forms and force powers although he knew that he needed to master the first form but with his progression in the form over the years it would be mastered and he could begin learning other forms. His interest in force powers was something that Carmen enjoyed because she came up the same way.
Force powers were something she loved to learn about as a youngling and padawan. As Zhane asked she would tell him about different force powers and show him some that she knew. They wouldn't go on a mission together until the next year but Zhane looked forward to getting out in the galaxy with his master and taking on missions. Zhane knew that carmen was great and completing her missions and giving good results so being with her was really good for him, That alone told him that she was a very good jedi and he was happy to have a master such as this.
YEAR FOURTEEN
This would be the year of his first mission and the year of some very good training for the young padawan as carmen was given a lower mission so that she could take her padawan along and see what he could do. Carmen told Zhane that they would be going on a mission to locate and apprehend a smuggler turned murder for hire that was hiding on coruscant. Carmen knew that she could help her padawan learn a lot from a mission such as this so the two headed across coruscant and Zhane was super excited to take on his first mission and his first mission with Carmen. Carmen would locate clues and such on the mission and figure them out and she would pass them to her padawan so that he could learn something. She wanted to include him as much as possible on every single detail during a mission. She had already discovered from her talking to people and her own senses where the man was but she wanted to give her padawan a bit to study the clues and everything she told him.
And this technique would pay off as some thinking and sensing would tell the young padawan learner just where to look and he was right. The two traveled to the shop where the criminal was hiding and quickly made themselves known to him, asking him first to surrender and come quietly but the murderer would refuse and draw his blaster and two men would come to his aid. Two sabers were drawn and and carmen would deflect a blaster shot or two and then move toward her target as her padawan would quickly deflect two or three blaster shots and one would hit the man that shot it was Zhane moved in on the other man and quickly cut the blaster from his hand and knocked him to the ground. Carmen quickly cut the her target's blaster arm off at the forearm and all three men were apprehended. The two men with the target turned out to also be wanted criminals and they bagged three with one stone so to speak.
YEAR FIFTEEN
A mission or two had been undertaken in his last year but the most important thing there was to him was his training. Zhane was an exceptional and amazing student and carmen was very proud of his progress since they got together and she knew that if he kept this up he would be one of the best jedi she had ever seen. He discovered and asked about a force power in this year that would aid him in the future better than he ever knew, The force power called Combustion. Zhane heard it somewhere and asked his master and she began to explain it to him. While the two weren't training or on a mission Zhane would meditate, He always sat in Meditation for the longest of times instead of sleeping or getting actual rest. Carmen noticed that he was always ready to learn about anything new and the young padawan took on every task without fear and that was a true attribute of ajedi. Zhane had always been without fear, Even when facing an enemy.
Carmen would explain to him to be careful though because there is a fine line between wanted to better yourself as a jedi and having a hunger for power, Greed could be the undoing of any jedi. She told him that he should never be greedy, possession was forbidden, To hate to be unfaithful to the jedi code, and to be angry was not the way of the jedi, These were things he already knew but she explained them even more and he was thankful for that. Zhane had never seen his want to be a better jedi as a hunger for power and neither did his master but it was something he should think about because if he began to grow to heavy in his want to be better he would grow hungry for power and desire more and more and that would drive him to greed, and anger..
YEAR SIXTEEN
Zhane and carmen took a mission to Tatooine this year and Zhane would discover something that would shape and change his future forever. The mission was to stop a Dark Jedi. The master and padawan found him on tatooine without much problem and engaged him as the dark jedi would not go without a fight. This was the first time that Zhane had ever fought another jedi that had intentions of killing him. The dark jedi was skilled in the arts of the force but the combination of Carmen and Zhane would be his undoing. They fought together and very well as the mixture of Carmen's great skill with a lightsaber and Zhane's unwavering focus would tear the dark jedi apart. Carmen cut the dark jedi above his knee with her saber and Zhane took his saber hand, disabling the jedi and bringing him to his knees.
Zhane held his saber to the dark jedi's neck for a moment but he realized that the battle was over and the jedi would surrender now so Zhane lowered his saber and turned away but when he did he heard the sound of a saber strike and turned to see his master with her saber drawn and the headless body of the dark jedi laying over on the floor with his saber right in front of him. He was unarmed Zhane thought but his master explained that he attempted to pull his saber toward himself and strike at her padawan from behind so she did what she had too. Zhane understood that but it just did not feel right to him, He thought perhaps that his master could have just blocked the attack or stopped him in another way. The fight was over and he didn't want the man to die.
YEAR SEVENTEEN
The planet of hoth was his birthplace but before the story begins its important to note that he never had a father and never really got a chance to know of a great male figure in his life up until he reached the jedi training. He was born to his mother Yaris Vin Korr. His father had left his mother once he had the news of her pregnancy. Yaris was forced to raise the child on her own since she had no family with her and her job didn't offer much so raising the child would be even more difficult. Once he was born she did her best to take care of him. Making payments and keeping food seemed to be a struggle and she wasn't around much because of work but she managed to find people to watch over her child. Yaris wasn't a fantastic mother but she got an a for effort.
She missed her childs for steps and words due to work but once Zhane became mobile he was a little terror as he managed to get into everything he could find and made a mess of the house all the time. He loved to climb onto things and pull things down all over the floor. His first year held a lot of laughter and joy for him as he discovered his hands and feet and spent countless hours being amazed by them and then of course he discovered his nose and on many occasions he tried to pull it off of his face so he could see it properly. He was a really adorable little baby through out his first year of life as he learned to crawl, walk and speak a few words.
YEAR TWO
His second year was like the first but to him it was much more exciting as he learned new words and of course began to run and trip and fall into things. He began to learn to jump from places and fall and get hurt and this year was also the year that he learned that stairs were a bad thing to fall down. He broke his arm during his second year but he was pretty much all right after this as the ever rotating amount of people would teach him different things such as strange new words and hand motions along with what different body parts are and what different objects were. Zhane learned quickly, he always had and always would learn quickly. His had broken his arm at about half way through the year so he spent most of the rest of the year at a slow pace but that didn't slow his mind.
Once he knew it hurt to run and fall he became looking at things like books and boxes, toys and everything else he could find to learn from and his speech continued to grow. Before he reached his third year he could speak such words as mom or mama or mommy, along with food, tired, sleep, bed, water, drink and so on, basically the essentials. He always seemed to learn something new from the different people that would watch over him for his mother. Although he mother never got to see a lot of her sons first things she still loved the child and care very much for it.
YEAR THREE
His arm would heal early in this year and his speech would progress along with many other things as he began going outside a lot more and exploring some things with supervision of course. His third year was the first year where he saw things like raiders or mercenaries along with guards and criminals, blasters and people that were much worse off than him. He wasn't scared when he saw bad people in fact he was more interested than anything else as he seemed to understand that some people had done things wrong but he didn't fully understand yet that bad people were punished for some of the things they were done. Zhane's mother wanted to shield him from a lot of the outside world because it was so bad and terrifying and she didn't want her baby boy being exposed to some of the things the galaxy had to offer.
The next year would be the most life changing so far for the young child but he didn't know that just yet nor did anyone else, The boy progressed with the things he was being taught by sitters and learned more and more and before the year passed he was a very good speakers with the ability to have a bit of a conversation with someone as he loved to talk more than anything else. He impressed everyone he saw with his ability to never shut up, although it was absolutely adorable to see someone so little talking on and on it could give you a headache.
YEAR FOUR
This would be the year that the young boy was discovered by a jedi passing through and looking for some shelter. The jedi had traveled quite some time and was weary from battle and flying so he took shelter in the little camp where the boy was but he was first drawn here due to the sensing of the boy. The jedi whom was named Ep Kane quickly found the child as Zhane was out with his supervisor exploring the great vast 5 square foot of snow he was playing in. The jedi Ep Kane approached the boy and his supervisor and began to ask a few questions and learned that the boys mother was away for a days work so the jedi kindly ask to stay and wait for the mother. Once Zhane's mother returned home Ep had already done a midichlorian count. The jedi spoke with Zhane's mother but she didn't want to let her child go so she asked Ep to let her think about it.
She knew that he would go with Ep to the jedi temple and everything but she didn't want to miss her baby but in the end she knew that she needed to let him go. The boy would never get another chance like this to make something of his life. Yaris like Ep take Zhane with him early in the fourth year and the two quickly returned to coruscant. Ep reported his finding of the boy and the completion of his assigned task. The boy was looked over and then given a go ahead to start his training. The entire way from hoth to coruscant, coruscant to the jedi temple and all during times where he should of been quiet Zhane was asking silly little questions and being a very curious child, asking where he was going and what he was going to be doing and things like that.
YEAR FIVE
He began his training as a youngling and began to learn things that he never knew were possible such as lightsabers and simple force training. Blaster deflection was a good one to learn of course and he began to learn the very basics of things like sense and telekenisis powers. He really seemed to enjoy his training as he progressed and began showing really nice potential. Zhane's form seemed very nice as he began to learn, not perfect of course but he picked up on it quickly. He loved his lightsaber training exercises but he really seemed to favor the force training exercises more than anything else as he moved through his training sessions. The training in sensing and telekinisis was something he really enjoyed and as good as his saber form was his ability to pick up on the use of the force was even better.
With each training session he seemed to take something from it was all younglings should. Over the years he would show great potential and progression if he moved at this pace. He moved toward the top of his classes and although it wasn't a race and he by no means was intending to beat anyone else to the finish it was nice for him to be noticed for his skill in the arts as a youngling. To say that he didn't notice someone talking about his progression would be a lie but he didn't concern himself with impressing, just doing what he was told instead.
YEAR SIX
Progression and and devotion would be the two main things shown by the youngling in this year. As Zhane was watched he seemed to be very devoted to his work as his some of his sleeping time and bits of other time were used to practice bits of the force even when he was not in class. He was young but he knew jedi could be power, saying this does not meant that he sought to be a super power jedi but instead a good jedi as he thought a good jedi was a strong jedi. His training continued and he continued to advance with his lesson in his force power. He imagined himself in the future as a jedi that was looked up to by all the younglings because he always looked up to the jedi that were walking around the jedi. Zhane wanted to be one of those super tall guys with the awesome brown robs and big lightsabers
but the boy knew he had to earn that through training, devotion and determination and that was just what he was going to do because being a big jedi was something that he wanted and he knew he could achieve if he worked hard enough over the years. He wanted to go on missions and save the galaxy from bad guys with his lightsaber so he continued to train with that being his goal for all of the training, to be a high ranking super awesome jedi that saved the galaxy from bad things, Check.
YEAR SEVEN
His desire to become a real jedi only grew as he learned more and more through his lightsaber and force training as a youngling. Zhane would see a jedi return from a mission and he would hear about what had happened and hope to one day help people the way these jedi did. By his seventh year his progress was quite impressive and he seemed to be a bit ahead of where he was expected to be. Although his strength wasn't his best attribute in training it was still up there but his speed was the most well known attribute he had. Zhane was Strong and intelligent but upon everything else he was fast, his saber movements were so quick and fluent, he was fast on his feet and rarely ever standing still for a more than a few seconds.
Zhane thought the constant movement could help you in a fight if you ever needed it. Through out that year of his life he began to lean toward his teachers and seek the deeper meaning in his training, He began to ask about the future a bit more too and the past as well, wondering about past Jedi and what the future would be like for the galaxy with the jedi watching over it. Teacher's didn't always seem to like him asking so many questions but he got his answers one way or another. Zhane was always curious about the next step in his life and where that would lead him down a better path to understanding the way of the force just a bit better. Zhane didn't believe that there was an end to training, He simply believed that there was always more to learn, even at his age.
YEAR EIGHT
By this year he would be seen as an exceptional youngling and well on his way to a great jedi future. Zhane never seemed to doubt the ways of the force and this in turn allowed him to always focus on the task at hand as he would never question his training or the meaning behind the smallest of lessons. His eighth year was the first year in which he really began to look forward to having a master and learning so much more about the force. As he was before, The ways of the actual force were more interesting to him than a use with the lightsaber, His force power was his favorite attribute of his, Over his years in training he seemed to push his force power further than his saber technique but he tried his hardest in both areas but it would seem as though he prefered to use the force.
Why use the lightsaber to cut down someone when you could use the force to just disable them long enough to end the fight? That's what he was thinking. Killing someone is something that he didn't believe was right regardless of his position as a jedi, If it were someone that was a real danger he knew he would finish the task but he would really try to avoid killing another His training would always show him something new and with each year he became a stronger jedi, even though he was a youngling he knew that one day he would be a proper jedi and that he would do the good in the galaxy he had always wanted too.
YEAR NINE
In his ninth year he would of course continue the training of the first form but he grew more and more curious about other forms with the lightsaber so he began to ask about them and study them, study them meaning reading not actual practice with the lightsaber, He wanted to know where they came from and why they were used in the jedi order. In this year he would show more of a favor toward his saber technique and training than his force use and he would catch up the slack and just about even out his skill with both the saber and his force power. Zhane's knowledge of the force would continue to grow as he trained like all the years before but as he was watched during training he had the utmost respect for the force along with an unwavering determination to be a good jedi. His only real fear was the fear of not being a good jedi, Not being the best jedi he could be but he knew that if he continued to train and obey his masters that he would be just fine.
In this year he met a jedi named Carmen Shiek, She was a Twi'lek Jedi Knight of some years. Zhane met Carmen when she came into one of his classes to ask a question. This was there first meeting as the teacher would introduce Carmen and to the class. Zhane would not see the female again for a while but he would see her again in the future for a great time but he of course did not know this year. With such a high midichlorian count like the one that Zhane had it was no surprise that he was such a good student of the force but even still he seemed to surprise others not just with his skill and technique but with his focus and determination, it was a feature that was hoped to stay with him as he progressed in his jedi training. Zhane would make a great padawan learner for any jedi knight or master as he would always listen to orders and obey them to the fullest.
YEAR TEN
Through his years as a youngling he had always shown most interest in force powers but in his tenth year he would begin with an even heavier determination to learn about more force powers but this of course was in his little free time as he would never focus on a thing but his training during his classes, However some force powers stood out more than others to him and once he had a master he would begin asking about them or training in them. Hi Saber technique progressed very well as he tried to remain balanced in his use of the force in his tenth year. As the youngling grew older in age his beliefs about fighting would change slightly, Zhane thought now that you could be a great force user but a jedi with great force ability and saber technique could defeat you and a dead jedi is not a good keeper of the peace.
Again in this year he saw the Jedi Knight Carmen Shiek and for the first time he spoke directly to her and asked her where she came from and a few questions about the force but she soon returned to her works and Zhane continued his training. He would always see jedi passing through the temple and a lot of them looked the same with the brown robes and braids, along with the long hair and beads, things such as this but what really interested him was the missions they went on. So many Jedi came through the temple taking on missions and returning with news of missions completed so Zhane wondered how many missions could really be out there to complete. He had never left the jedi temple so he knew nothing of the galaxy and he didn't even really remember being home, If he had a memory it was so vague that it would never matter and besides, he knew the jedi code, his upbringing, his home, his mother or any family he ever had were of no concern to him, he was going to be a jedi master some day.
YEAR ELEVEN
Zhane was closing in his youngling years and not to long from now he would become a padawan. Hi exceptional skill with a saber and the force already told many that he would be accepted as a padawan learner and not sent anywhere else like the corps. Some were proud of his progression over the years but Zhane himself would just continue to train and focus, he wanted to become a padawan and advance himself completely in the ways of the force. All of his training so far, all of his years spent in classes were amazing, he couldn't have hoped for a better life but he knew that this was only the very basic beginning to the jedi ways. Once he was a padawan he knew that he would learn ten times this much and then when he was a jedi knight he would learn ten times as much as he learned while being a padawan and he of course knew that as a master of the force there could be no end to training and learning. Zhane wanted to train for as long as he lived.
Through great amounts of meditation, training and belief he would become a fantastic jedi. In this year though he would also begin to wonder who his master would be, he didn't spend that much time thinking about it but it was still a thought as he would see padawan's and there masters constantly in the temple. It didn't matter much to him but he hoped that he would get a highly skilled master that would train him harder than anyone else ever had. The ways of the force were never ending, A jedi could spend a thousand years studying the force and never complete training and that's just the way Zhane would think, his training was endless and that never kept him from trying his hardest.
YEAR TWELVE
He knew at the beginning that in just one short year he would be a padawan learner under a master that would show him ways to the force and things in the galaxy that he had never seen. Zhane had exceeded all hopes of hi teachers and really impressed. He never questioned his teachers or his teachings and he moved through his last year with nothing but respect for his learnings and those that taught him. One might think that made he had a question or two about the reasons behind things but he didn't, Zhane was just born to be a good jedi although others might see his ability to obey every order as something that would make him a great soldier but he would disagree. Zhane knew he was to be a jedi. Zhane didn't want to be the jedi that changed the force forever or the jedi with the biggest and most well known name in the galaxy, he simply wanted to better himself through training in the force and help others when he was old enough and his time came.
He wasn't sure if most other younglings were thinking about becoming a teacher one day but he had hopes for this. Zhane had always gotten along with his classmates but he never seemed to talk to them much as he thought his training was more important but of course when a jedi knight or a jedi master came along he would always try and talk because he knew that your elders could always teach you something. As his year closed he knew he had done his best as a youngling and he knew that he would only get better. His training had been the best thing that could of ever happened to him and he couldn't be happier to have been found and taken to the jedi temple. Zhane knew this was his fate, his destiny.
YEAR THIRTEEN
His wait was finally over and his time had come, Zhane would become a padawan learner, all that was left was deciding his master and of course it would be decided that the best choice for a padawan of his talent would be a jedi that once showed much of the same skill, Carmen Shiek. The two had met before but neither thought that they would be a padawan learner and master combination but both were happy to accept. Carmen wanted a padawan learner and Zhane had always wanted a master. Zhane took to his new master and began his training with her. It was even better than he had expected. Carmen had much to teach Zhane and he was more than willing to learn everything she knew. he would ask her about different forms and force powers although he knew that he needed to master the first form but with his progression in the form over the years it would be mastered and he could begin learning other forms. His interest in force powers was something that Carmen enjoyed because she came up the same way.
Force powers were something she loved to learn about as a youngling and padawan. As Zhane asked she would tell him about different force powers and show him some that she knew. They wouldn't go on a mission together until the next year but Zhane looked forward to getting out in the galaxy with his master and taking on missions. Zhane knew that carmen was great and completing her missions and giving good results so being with her was really good for him, That alone told him that she was a very good jedi and he was happy to have a master such as this.
YEAR FOURTEEN
This would be the year of his first mission and the year of some very good training for the young padawan as carmen was given a lower mission so that she could take her padawan along and see what he could do. Carmen told Zhane that they would be going on a mission to locate and apprehend a smuggler turned murder for hire that was hiding on coruscant. Carmen knew that she could help her padawan learn a lot from a mission such as this so the two headed across coruscant and Zhane was super excited to take on his first mission and his first mission with Carmen. Carmen would locate clues and such on the mission and figure them out and she would pass them to her padawan so that he could learn something. She wanted to include him as much as possible on every single detail during a mission. She had already discovered from her talking to people and her own senses where the man was but she wanted to give her padawan a bit to study the clues and everything she told him.
And this technique would pay off as some thinking and sensing would tell the young padawan learner just where to look and he was right. The two traveled to the shop where the criminal was hiding and quickly made themselves known to him, asking him first to surrender and come quietly but the murderer would refuse and draw his blaster and two men would come to his aid. Two sabers were drawn and and carmen would deflect a blaster shot or two and then move toward her target as her padawan would quickly deflect two or three blaster shots and one would hit the man that shot it was Zhane moved in on the other man and quickly cut the blaster from his hand and knocked him to the ground. Carmen quickly cut the her target's blaster arm off at the forearm and all three men were apprehended. The two men with the target turned out to also be wanted criminals and they bagged three with one stone so to speak.
YEAR FIFTEEN
A mission or two had been undertaken in his last year but the most important thing there was to him was his training. Zhane was an exceptional and amazing student and carmen was very proud of his progress since they got together and she knew that if he kept this up he would be one of the best jedi she had ever seen. He discovered and asked about a force power in this year that would aid him in the future better than he ever knew, The force power called Combustion. Zhane heard it somewhere and asked his master and she began to explain it to him. While the two weren't training or on a mission Zhane would meditate, He always sat in Meditation for the longest of times instead of sleeping or getting actual rest. Carmen noticed that he was always ready to learn about anything new and the young padawan took on every task without fear and that was a true attribute of ajedi. Zhane had always been without fear, Even when facing an enemy.
Carmen would explain to him to be careful though because there is a fine line between wanted to better yourself as a jedi and having a hunger for power, Greed could be the undoing of any jedi. She told him that he should never be greedy, possession was forbidden, To hate to be unfaithful to the jedi code, and to be angry was not the way of the jedi, These were things he already knew but she explained them even more and he was thankful for that. Zhane had never seen his want to be a better jedi as a hunger for power and neither did his master but it was something he should think about because if he began to grow to heavy in his want to be better he would grow hungry for power and desire more and more and that would drive him to greed, and anger..
YEAR SIXTEEN
Zhane and carmen took a mission to Tatooine this year and Zhane would discover something that would shape and change his future forever. The mission was to stop a Dark Jedi. The master and padawan found him on tatooine without much problem and engaged him as the dark jedi would not go without a fight. This was the first time that Zhane had ever fought another jedi that had intentions of killing him. The dark jedi was skilled in the arts of the force but the combination of Carmen and Zhane would be his undoing. They fought together and very well as the mixture of Carmen's great skill with a lightsaber and Zhane's unwavering focus would tear the dark jedi apart. Carmen cut the dark jedi above his knee with her saber and Zhane took his saber hand, disabling the jedi and bringing him to his knees.
Zhane held his saber to the dark jedi's neck for a moment but he realized that the battle was over and the jedi would surrender now so Zhane lowered his saber and turned away but when he did he heard the sound of a saber strike and turned to see his master with her saber drawn and the headless body of the dark jedi laying over on the floor with his saber right in front of him. He was unarmed Zhane thought but his master explained that he attempted to pull his saber toward himself and strike at her padawan from behind so she did what she had too. Zhane understood that but it just did not feel right to him, He thought perhaps that his master could have just blocked the attack or stopped him in another way. The fight was over and he didn't want the man to die.
YEAR SEVENTEEN
RP Sample:
Zhane's hit the wall back first and fell to the floor, quickly placing his hands in front of his body to break most of the fall. He flipped forward and came down with both lightsabers but the attack was parried, Zhane then raised his right leg and gave a hard push kick to the chest of Zen and knocked him back to the grounded. Zen rolled from his back and up onto his feet but Zhane quickly came in and slapped his right saber down onto Zen only single saber and knocked it down a bit and his second saber was brought over and it cut through the hilt of Zen's saber. Zhane quickly kicked Zen in the chest and knocked him back against the wall and he fell down to the floor. Zhane closed up his left saber and he slowly walked over to Zen who was trying to stand to his feet. "Your crimes against the Jedi have resulted in my actions today. I was sent here to retrieve you ALIVE and that's what i am going to do. You've tried your hardest to ensure that you escape or that i kill you.. but i am a jedi." he spoke with a heavy breath after each few words as he was tired from the fight. Zen came to his feet quickly but Zhane raised his saber to the dark jedi's throat and he quickly went stiff. "You will return with me to coruscant and you will pay for your crimes." Zen made a quick move and dodged past the saber and attempted to run but Zhane used his force power and pulled a big metal box through the air and it crashed into Zen's head and he fell to the floor out cold. Zhane attached his saber to his belt and he sighed a little as he began to walk over to the dark jedi and grab him, dragging him out to the ship.
