Name:Xue Aodh
Race: Human
Age: 32
Height: 5'9''
Weight: 157 lbs
Appearance:
Xue looks more like a scoundrel and the a rogue that steals the purses of damsels in distress than an all wise Jedi Knight, with only his bright green eyes show wisdom and compasion, that reveal Xue true personality of a kind yet slightly diferent person. Xue's dirty blond hair reaches down to his cheeks and he keeps a small stuble of also dirty blond looking hair grow in his chin. Xue body is marked with many small cuts that are the renmants and his reminder of a duel with a dark Jedi. The Jedi knight also has several piercings along his left hear, which make him look more like a pirate than anything else.
Xue personality reflects in his clothing, he only wears the traditional robes of a Jedi when he finds himself in a very formal situation, otherwise he is seen with simple traveller clothing, regularly seen with a white long sleeve shirt and simple dark colored pants. He instead of a Jedi robe wears a long black trench jacket and hides his lightsaber in his wrist instead of holding it hanging from his belt.
Xue is left handed
Personality:
Xue is not a traditional Jedi or a orthodox member of the order. Being a firm believer in the Potentium aspect of the force, he is not a strict when it comes to dark and light side of the force, he believes that the force is a single entity with no evil or good side, that it is more akin to a force of nature than a deity. His belief in the potentium makes Xue a very forgiving person, he is kind despite the fact that most of his time he sounds sarcastic. Xue also has the habit, that when meeting people in casual encounters he tends to give them titles or pet names rather than call them by their true name.
Xue is also the type of person to enjoy the "now" rather than think about the future, he is very focused on watching the current events so he is rarely surprised on the go, but at times can fail to see the full consequences of his or others actions. Xue has broken the Jedi code on several occacions and shows no regret, he never regrets or wonders how things could have turned out should he had reacted diferently, so in a sense Xue is very mature accepting the consequences of his actions without flinching or regreting them.
Xue has a jack of trades mentality, he is a very balanced person in most every regards. Most call Xue a fool or see him as a very irresponsible person and on first impression he is unlike any Jedi you have ever met. While this Jedi knight might be really informal and often plays the role of a fool infront of people, he in reality is not just finds it easier to mingle with people by beeing "goofy" and for Xue at least is slimpler to find out people true intentions by acting like a fool. Xue Aodh all in all is a scruffy, silly acting person who deep down below his seemingly sarcastic and joker act is a dedicated Jedi knight with a very broad scope of view and tolerance.
Birth place: Deneba
Faction: Jedi Order
Rank: Knight sentinel
Bio:
Born in Deneba thirty one years ago into the Aodh Family. Xue was the first born to Xan and Shu Aodh, a pair of former member of the agricorps, who had failed to become padawans. Eventually left the agricorps and opened a small droid workshop in Denaba, which resulted in them eventually falling inlove and afterward getting married. After eight years of trying for a baby the couple was blessed with twins. A boy and a girl, the boy was named Xue and girl Chen, Xan and Shu were more than happy to care for the children and for four years raised the twins. Xue and Chen shared a extremely powerful bond through the force both could easily guess how the other felt or sometime was thinking, and Xue became very protective of he's sister who from birth was sickly. By the time both twins were four years, an old jedi and friend of Xan came to the planet, looking for information and decided to contact them. He was welcomed and felt that Xue had inherent the force sensitivity of his parents and that Chen while she was also force sensitive she had very little potential falling far below the standards counts of mediclorians. The Jedi would visit the Aodh household over the coming weeks to watched both twins and discovered that the powerful bond between the twins was due to a passive ability Xue had. The Jedi seeing this asked the parents of Xue if he could take the boy to the jedi temple. Heartbroken the Xan and Shu agreed, seeing it was the best posible outcome for all, Xue could fufill their dream and become a Jedi knight and live a full life and Chen would grow up with them, she being to physicly weak and not strong enough in the force to be considered for training. They explained the situation to both children and even if Xue was a bit recluntant he accepted due to Chen insistanse. It was so that he was taken to the Jedi temple to train and help control his natural skill at making bonds.
Life in the Jedi temple was a big change for Xue, he was a little scared of the Jedi instructors and became slightly withdrawn from the other younglings, preferring to be on his own rather than sharing with the other's. Xue was also slightly sad and lonely about leaving his sister behind, and from time to time with his dreams he could reach out for her, feeling fragments of her emotions, but this events were rare at best and became rarer with each passing day, until after two years in the Jedi temple the bond vanished. This made Xue more sad but he was cheered up by a friend he made or to put it better she became his friend by force, Rhyn Vales a girl with red hair constantly accompanied the introverted Xue, always seeking to cheer him up. Rhyn became Xue's friend and companion, she was the outlet for Xue's feelings, he felt that he could talk to her and trusted her more than most of the masters, so in personal matters it was more common for him to talk to her rather than the Jedi caretaker. But Rhyn could not replace Chen place and Xue never forgot about his twin sister.
Years passed for Xue in the temple, he was not particularly gifted in any aspect with the exception of creating illusions. from a young age Xue chose to be balanced about everything, he would spend equal time with each aspect of the force and the lightsaber training as well as attending his studies, it was so that Xue was among the best apprentices of his group, he did not particularly excelled in any area and was no matched for other younglings such as Rhyn who showed to be a natural lightsaber duelist being the top Shii-Cho practitioner of the group, nor could Xue matched the raw power of some of the other younglings. But Xue was considered to be among the best becouse he was slightly more mature and cunning, and all his scores where evenly balanced, than let's say Rhyn who was a hyperactive and outgoing trouble maker. By the time Xue and Rhyn were nine the had become good friends and develop a friendly rivalry, which usually ended in Rhyn's favour.
At the age of twelve Xue was taken as a padawan by a Weequay Jedi master named Quarra belg, Xue would be the second padawan the female Weequay took, she had been watching Xue for years, and thought he would be a perfect pawadan for her, Xue's level of maturity would get along with the traditionalist to a fault Quarra. They got along well. Their first two years together Quarra made her main focus was to teach Xue a messure of control over his ability, this was hard work but they had some success. Quarra who agreed with Xue mind set of generalization tought him Niman, the most balanced form to the young human, and Xue showed to be very eager to learn more about this style. The training under Quarra was balanced and proper for sentinel, Xue powers grew in equal meassure, making Xue a true applicant of the jack of trades mentality that was Niman, balanced force power with equal strength in lightsaber combat.
Xue's friend Rhyn also became a padawan, and she trained to be a guardian. Rhyn and her twi'lek master often spend time with Xue and Quarra while they stayed in the Jedi temple. The little group often shared lessons and their time together, Rhyn would often spar with Xue both helping each other in their training, Rhyn still proved to be a better duellist than Xue. But Xue became better at using the force especially in telekinetic and creating barriers to protect himself from force attacks. With Quarra guidence as well as from the master of Rhyn, both padawan managed to learn how to use a ability called life sense, although Xue never did truly mastered that power. Around the time Xue was sixteen while staying with Quarra in Corellia, the padawan found while walking through the markets a Violet crystal, and he felt drawn to it. Using all the credits he had he bought the crystal and felt through the force that he could use it for his lightsaber, after their assignment in Corellia was done the pair went back to the Jedi temple, where with Quarra guidance Xue built his single phase lightsaber, which to this day he still holds.
Over the years Xue and Rhyn's friendship grew to the point that both developed feelings for each other, and had a very infantile crush. Through their bond both knew how the other felt but neither acted upon it, they simply liked each other. At the age of nineteen Xue began taking lessons in Makashi to improve his duellist skills, he also under the permission of Quarra started learning the ways of the melding his force powers, in which Xue eventually became proficient. Xue began showing signs of becoming a unorthodox Jedi when he along with Quarra landed in Rexus Prime to look for a weapon smuggler who was selling very dangerous and unstable weapon prototypes, the pair tracked the weapon's dealer and he's bodyguard a former Jedi knight turned to the Dark side. Quarra and Xue dueled the man but Xue became separated from his master and stuck with the dark jedi by a avalanche of junk that was set off by the weapon's dealer traps. Both where sent spiral down into a pit and far from their original location. Strangely enough once both woke up, the Dark Jedi proposed that they worked together so they could find a way to escape. Xue agreed despite the fact that he knew the dark Jedi wanted to turn the padawan to the dark side, but the padawan was smarter, allowing the dark Jedi do the hardest parts of work, so the cunning padawan remained with more energy than the fallen one, in case a battle began. They spent hours digging themselves out of the junk like cave that had trapped them, during their short time together and thanks to Xue natural empaty he learned why the man had fallen to the dark side of the force, the dark jedi felt compelled to talk to the young Xue in a attempted to make him fall to the dark side. The man had fallen in love with a girl and she died and in his anger the fallen one killed his padawan and thats how he began living a life full of hatred and evil. Through the force bond Xue began thinking that it was not the dark side what turned him into a evil man but it was the man himself who chose that path. After escaping the Dark jedi who tried to torture the padawan into submission, Xue managed to elude him and created a small avalanche which "killed" the Dark Jedi. Xue was shocked that the men died as he was intending to trap him again, unknowingly to the Jedi the dark Jedi survive and swore venganze against the padawan who had shamed him. After this encounter Xue became more open minded about the force and it's applications instead of being more careful of the pulls of the dark side, something which irked the Weequay master along with it.
Xue Aodh by the age of twenty was becoming more open minded about the force, and in secret began experimenting a little with the dark side of the force. Quarra felt Xue attempts in experimenting with the dark side and began giving Xue longer lectures on the folly of the dark side, this lectures had the opposite effect on Xue as he began seeing Quarra lectures and warnings as recluntase and out right ignorance from her part, the padawan began seeing her master teachings being wrong from then on. Xue felt if he was going to be a Jedi knight and fight the so called dark side he would need to understand it first.
Just before turning twenty one, Xue faced two trials at the same time. While walking through the markets of Mygeeto with her master taking a break from their duties in the planet, the pair decided to walk around. Unknowingly the Dark jedi they encountered in Rexus Prime had survived and had been plotting on how to capture and kill the Xue. He had tracked them for a whole year and in Mygeeto he made his move, he hired a couple of thugs to rob a shop while the Jedi pass through. He made sure they could escape and take diferent routes, to make sure that Quarra was separated from Xue, who as he pursued the robbers felt something wrong. Despite the fact that the Dark jedi was hiding his presence the little bond they had forged was still present and it gave off hints to the padawan. By the time Xue managed to capture the robbers the fallen Jedi revealed himself and began dueling against the Xue, the dark Jedi had the advantage of experience and power. Although Xue managed to keep up for a short time due to his training in Niman and as he employed a few elements of other forms to surprise the Dark Jedi, but those tricks did not last long. After suffering many scratches and taunting cuts, Xue was left unarmed and defeated. Quarra felt what was happening but there was no way she could reach Xue in time to save him.
The Dark jedi taunted the padawan on how weak he was becouse he lacked emotion, and for a instant made Xue tap into his anger, the both engaged once more, but Xue momentary burst of hatred did not last, disappointed that the padawan not only resisted the lure of the dark side and actually accepted his darkness and kept of walking the path of the light, made the dark Jedi so angry he forgot about his original plan and tried to kill Xue, as the lightsaber of the dark jedi came to finish the padawan. Xue led out a mighty force push filled extrangely enough a lot of peace behind it. He didn't want to die yet, he still needed to become a knight and visit his sister, he needed to tell his feelings to Rhyn, he had still things to do and he was going to fufill them. Using all his might, all his emotions and reaching a calmed state, as well as embracing the light side of the force he was able to conjure force lightning without subcoming to the lure of the dark side. The dark Jedi died between the kinetic blast and the incoming lightning. Xue fell unconcius afterward.
Xue later awoke in a hospital with a stern looking Quarra who while glad that Xue was alive was very worried as she thought Xue had touched the dark side and used the dark side, but It had been over a week since that day. Xue was back in the temple and after a long discussion to put Quarra at ease, Xue met with the worried Rhyn, who after hugging him and then slapping him to show her affection and show how worried she was, left as she had been stalling her own lessons to care for him. Xue decided not to confess his feelings yet, he was currently to weak and under the watchful eyes of Quarra to do anything like that.
After his recovery Xue spent around two more months confine inside the temple under the eye of Quarra who was seeing to what extent Xue had learn from his brush with the dark side. Xue accepted that the dark side was a part of him and it was his duty to keep it in check, and never let it control him again. This reasoning was enough to regain the trust of the Weequay master. After a full recovery Xue continued his training afterwards, becoming a little more focused on developing his abilities but at the same time became far more withdrawn and mostly he's interactions were with Quarra and Rhyn mostly.
By the Time Xue was twenty two, the council considered that he had already faced three of the trials, he had passed the trial of spirit by facing the darkness within him during his encounter with the fallen Jedi, and not succumbing to it. He had passed both the trials of courage and skill by facing not only once but twice a former Jedi Knight and survive, and both times being able to hold is own. The council was also worried about the current behaviour change Xue was going through, so to test Xue one last time they asked Quarra permission to see how Xue reacted to being exiled from the order, thye were going to test his commitment to the Jedi and the light side of the force, by tricking him into a fake exile.
The council called Xue to their chambers were they stood in a circle along with Quarra, the council surrounded Xue and proclaim their fake exile, the padawan was shocked at first, then slightly outrage not because of the sentence but because of the so called charges, since in Xue's mind it had no backup. It was so that Xue made his statement to serve life, to protect the weak and if it meant that he had to leave the Jedi behind to fulfil the duty the Jedi had given him, he would gladly accept the strange judgement the council had passed on to him. Xue renounced his lightsaber and bowed to his master, it was then that with a slight nod of the grandmaster that Quarra spoke and approached her padawan, she lighten up her lightsaber and removed Xue padawan braid and she named him a Jedi knight.
Xue did not receive his promotion all to well, he thought it was a really bad joke the council played on him and felt it was irresponsible on their part to do something like that. But he accepted the test and took on the mantle of a Jedi knight. The council was still slightly reluctant and worried about Xue mind set, but saw that his heart was in good place it was so that they hoped Xue would soon grow up from his new phase. He did not.
Xue adjusted pretty well to his new duties. He enjoyed the new freedoms and duties he had receive. A few weeks after Xue's promotion, Rhyn was also promoted to the rank of knight. The pair immediately teamed up and often took mission together or simply spent their time together, both training and studying the force further in their free time. Rhyn concentrate more on her lightsaber training, while Xue focused more on balancing his training and mastery of the force as well as taking a short lesson in soresu, to boost his defensive capabilities.
Two years after their promotion Rhyn took a padawan, while Xue did not he didn't feel ready for such burden. Rhyn's padawan a Zeltron boy named Frin. Xue helped Rhyn with teaching the boy, but never became a pushing influence on the boy, but none the less the Zeltros began seeing eye to eye with Xue's phylosophy about the force, about the potentium. A little thing which Rhyn did not appreciated, which were slowly making Frin rather arrogant and proud of his skills. Aside from that the love Xue had for Rhyn grew as they passed more and more time together, her love for him also grow and they both had close brushes and tense moments but their Jedi training held and neither succumbed to their feelings.
The age of twenty eight was a turning point for Xue Aodh. It was to him the year his world shock the most, no event before or after had affected him so much. The Mission was simple, he had to track a republic fugitive and former member of a terrorist cell and detain him. For this mission partner was Rhyn alone, as she did not consider Frin ready for this type of danger. The pair tracked the fugitive to Deneba, Xue's homeworld and the place where his sister lived, as soon as Xue touched the surface of the red planet, his well develop senses felt his sister. The recently awoken remnants of their powerful bond allowed him to feel her. Rhyn felt a change inside Xue, and became slightly worried. The jedi looked for the terrorist always one step behind, as the man moved faster than they expected and eventually their chase lead them into the same town where Chen lived. The first thing Xue did after he felt how close his sister was to check her safety, Rhyn although she didn't knew what Xue was doing told him it was a mistake, and in reality it was. The terrorist was watching the Jedi, formulating a way to kill both of them, and when Xue approached his sister, the wicket man knew.
Xue reunion with Chen was the happiest moment in his life, both recognized each other at the first sight, they hugged and were happy to be reunited. Rhyn saw this and dreaded this, as the Jedi forbid contact with their families, but she kept her thoughts to herself and Xue was to happy about seeing his sister to feel Rhyn's thoughts. The terrorist watched the whole reunion formulating a plan to get rid of his pursuers. After having dinner with his sister, and catching up with her, Xue left content and was glad to have gotten the chance to see his precious sister, and their bond returned to it's former strength afterwards. He left with a silent Rhyn.
The next day Xue received a warning through the force that Chen was in danger, he rushed to the scene with Rhyn and as they walked into the house and both were trapped inside surrounded by explosives, with the terrorist holding Chen in his grasp, with bind and with a detonator in his hand. Rhyn and Xue couldn't do a thing to make the man surrender. Through his bond with Chen, Xue felt the intentions of his twin sister, she bid farewell to his brother with her mind, with a unnatural calmness and fought the terrorist, Xue understood all to well what his sister was doing and rushed into the fray trying to stop her, but Rhyn felt had a flash of the future and saw what was going to happen, so she used a massive force pull and sent Xue out the house rolling, she then jump just in time to avoid the issuing explotion. Chen, wrestle the terrorist even with her bindings and managed to get a hold of the trigger, she pressed it and the house turned to ash. Xue slammed his fist in frustation with himself, not to Rhyn... He was angry at himself so he walked away without looking back, there was nothing to look at.
Even if Xue didn't show it, his heart was broken in two. in his head he killed his sister, his hands were stained with her blood. On their trip back to the Jedi temple, Xue in his depression confessed to Rhyn about his feelings seeking confort, he left his heart open to her allowing her to console him, she accepted his feelings and they shared a kiss and a night together, the only time in their lives that they dropped their mantles as Jedi knights. They felt each other through the force and through their bodies, exploring every inch of the other, for one night they were not Jedi but lovers....
By morning both accepted each other and swore never to speak of what had happened, the lust for each other had been quench and both felt contempt to retake their roles as Jedi Knights. Xue was still heart broken but he felt like he could carry on if he had Rhyn beside him. Every night afterwards Xue received dreams of his sister and eventually after a week of dreaming with her, he talked to her and accepted her death after talking to her, and promised his sister he would be a better man.
The day after that dream he took the first shuttle he could get to Dantooine to once more bring balance to his life. In the enclave of Dantooine Xue meditated for a couple of weeks, before heading out to the caves that held lightsaber crystals. After expelling the animal occupants of the cave, Xue resumed his meditation, after almost eleven hours of meditation Xue reached a state of true balance, he could channel the force easily. Xue perfected his use of using illusions through the force and expanded on his mastery over his emotions. He returned to the Jedi enclave to rest afterward. Xue proceeded to spend a whole year in Dantooine training. By mere chance left the planet one week before it was conquered by the sith empire. Back in the Jedi temple the last event that so far marked Xue happened, once he returned to the Temple he found out that Frin was missing, so with Rhyn and a Jedi search party the group went to look for the lost padawan in the lower parts of Coruscant. Xue found Frin killing a beggar who had dirtied the padawan's boot, Xue was in such shock that at first he didn't recognize the Zeltron, he moved to arrest the fallen padawan, but was attacked by Frin, Xue could only defend himself, he didn't understand why the Zeltron had fallen to the dark side. Eventually the padawan confessed that he had tasted the dark side and wanted to feed those emotions, as they brought a strange extasis to him, the Zeltron had twisted Xue philosophy and belief in balance to a physical pleasure.
Xue was forced to cut Frin's arm to keep him from doing more harm, Rhyn entered the scene just in time to see Xue's attack. She blocked Xue's attacked thanks to a desperate force leap, but her attempted to save her padawan was wasted. She had failed to see that her padawan had been twisted by the dark side, the Zeltron killed her master by impaling her. Xue could only watched in horror as the person he loved died in front of him, the damage Xue received from the bond was to much, he couldn't think straight... he once more used the dark side and chocked the Zeltron then he force pushed Frin into a wall... Xue raised his lightsaber to strike down the fallen padawan. But then he remembered the weakness of the dark Jedi he had defeated. He lowered his arm and had the Zeltron be arrested for murder.
The fallowing year Xue secluded himself from most of the other, he eventually went to visit Frin in prison and forgave him, he understood that no one had the same strength of heart, he did not blame Frin for killing his master. For killing Rhyn. Xue accepted her death and cherished his night with her. During his slecusion Xue learned how to properly use force flash, after spending several months with a Jedi investigator he befriended, who also thought a little to Xue about how to wield a blaster. Now at the age of thirty Xue wonders what life has in stored for him.

RP Sample:
The chattering of birds, the sound of the water moving through the stream, the giggling of younglings talking among themselves, the shining light and the green grass. The room of a thousand fountains was indeed Xue's favourite part of the Jedi temple. Here he could meditate in true harmony, akin to that of the crystal cave in Dantooine, which alas was no longer avaible to him due to the current occupants of the planet. Xue was strolling through the great garden, his lips in a full smile and his eyes sparkled peace and joy. How I love this place! he took a deep breath and began seeking a place where he could rest, unlike most people who sought the garden to meditate and practice Xue often came here to nap or simply relax the worries of daily life, of course he also came to meditate and do more Jedi like things in the park.
Xue chuckled has he saw two younglings playing and bickering over who was going to be the next grandmaster "Coming for another nap are you Xue?" said a bothan who stood next to him watching the younglings "Of course esteemed guardian of the next generation" said Xue while slightly bowing to the caretaker of the younglings."By the force, I've never understood how you can be so carefree" said the bothan slightly more serious now, Here I was thinking I was going to have a relaxing morning thought the unorthodox Jedi "And what makes you think I don't worry about what is happening to the galaxy, but right now there is nothing I can do, sure I could join the blades but we know so little of our enemies, we are Jedi we can not be so hasty with our decisions" answered the human Jedi knight, the Bothan couldn't help but laugh "You sound like if you agree with the council" said the youngling instructor with a hint of a mocking tone "I do, I may not share the same view with them, my belief in the force may vary from most of the people in the order, but I do agree with their choice to not rush head on into battle." Xue boldly stated, something which took back the Bothan "Now if you will excuse me, I need to find some nice spot to take my nap" said Xue with his fox like smile while giving a slight head nod and padding the Bothan back while he walked away "Sweet dreams my strange brother" mumbled the Bothan as Xue walked away in a merry pase.

Birth place: Deneba
Faction: Jedi Order
Rank: Knight sentinel
Bio:
A Jedi is born
Born in Deneba thirty one years ago into the Aodh Family. Xue was the first born to Xan and Shu Aodh, a pair of former member of the agricorps, who had failed to become padawans. Eventually left the agricorps and opened a small droid workshop in Denaba, which resulted in them eventually falling inlove and afterward getting married. After eight years of trying for a baby the couple was blessed with twins. A boy and a girl, the boy was named Xue and girl Chen, Xan and Shu were more than happy to care for the children and for four years raised the twins. Xue and Chen shared a extremely powerful bond through the force both could easily guess how the other felt or sometime was thinking, and Xue became very protective of he's sister who from birth was sickly. By the time both twins were four years, an old jedi and friend of Xan came to the planet, looking for information and decided to contact them. He was welcomed and felt that Xue had inherent the force sensitivity of his parents and that Chen while she was also force sensitive she had very little potential falling far below the standards counts of mediclorians. The Jedi would visit the Aodh household over the coming weeks to watched both twins and discovered that the powerful bond between the twins was due to a passive ability Xue had. The Jedi seeing this asked the parents of Xue if he could take the boy to the jedi temple. Heartbroken the Xan and Shu agreed, seeing it was the best posible outcome for all, Xue could fufill their dream and become a Jedi knight and live a full life and Chen would grow up with them, she being to physicly weak and not strong enough in the force to be considered for training. They explained the situation to both children and even if Xue was a bit recluntant he accepted due to Chen insistanse. It was so that he was taken to the Jedi temple to train and help control his natural skill at making bonds.
Being alone with someone
Life in the Jedi temple was a big change for Xue, he was a little scared of the Jedi instructors and became slightly withdrawn from the other younglings, preferring to be on his own rather than sharing with the other's. Xue was also slightly sad and lonely about leaving his sister behind, and from time to time with his dreams he could reach out for her, feeling fragments of her emotions, but this events were rare at best and became rarer with each passing day, until after two years in the Jedi temple the bond vanished. This made Xue more sad but he was cheered up by a friend he made or to put it better she became his friend by force, Rhyn Vales a girl with red hair constantly accompanied the introverted Xue, always seeking to cheer him up. Rhyn became Xue's friend and companion, she was the outlet for Xue's feelings, he felt that he could talk to her and trusted her more than most of the masters, so in personal matters it was more common for him to talk to her rather than the Jedi caretaker. But Rhyn could not replace Chen place and Xue never forgot about his twin sister.
Years passed for Xue in the temple, he was not particularly gifted in any aspect with the exception of creating illusions. from a young age Xue chose to be balanced about everything, he would spend equal time with each aspect of the force and the lightsaber training as well as attending his studies, it was so that Xue was among the best apprentices of his group, he did not particularly excelled in any area and was no matched for other younglings such as Rhyn who showed to be a natural lightsaber duelist being the top Shii-Cho practitioner of the group, nor could Xue matched the raw power of some of the other younglings. But Xue was considered to be among the best becouse he was slightly more mature and cunning, and all his scores where evenly balanced, than let's say Rhyn who was a hyperactive and outgoing trouble maker. By the time Xue and Rhyn were nine the had become good friends and develop a friendly rivalry, which usually ended in Rhyn's favour.
At the age of twelve Xue was taken as a padawan by a Weequay Jedi master named Quarra belg, Xue would be the second padawan the female Weequay took, she had been watching Xue for years, and thought he would be a perfect pawadan for her, Xue's level of maturity would get along with the traditionalist to a fault Quarra. They got along well. Their first two years together Quarra made her main focus was to teach Xue a messure of control over his ability, this was hard work but they had some success. Quarra who agreed with Xue mind set of generalization tought him Niman, the most balanced form to the young human, and Xue showed to be very eager to learn more about this style. The training under Quarra was balanced and proper for sentinel, Xue powers grew in equal meassure, making Xue a true applicant of the jack of trades mentality that was Niman, balanced force power with equal strength in lightsaber combat.
Xue's friend Rhyn also became a padawan, and she trained to be a guardian. Rhyn and her twi'lek master often spend time with Xue and Quarra while they stayed in the Jedi temple. The little group often shared lessons and their time together, Rhyn would often spar with Xue both helping each other in their training, Rhyn still proved to be a better duellist than Xue. But Xue became better at using the force especially in telekinetic and creating barriers to protect himself from force attacks. With Quarra guidence as well as from the master of Rhyn, both padawan managed to learn how to use a ability called life sense, although Xue never did truly mastered that power. Around the time Xue was sixteen while staying with Quarra in Corellia, the padawan found while walking through the markets a Violet crystal, and he felt drawn to it. Using all the credits he had he bought the crystal and felt through the force that he could use it for his lightsaber, after their assignment in Corellia was done the pair went back to the Jedi temple, where with Quarra guidance Xue built his single phase lightsaber, which to this day he still holds.
Over the years Xue and Rhyn's friendship grew to the point that both developed feelings for each other, and had a very infantile crush. Through their bond both knew how the other felt but neither acted upon it, they simply liked each other. At the age of nineteen Xue began taking lessons in Makashi to improve his duellist skills, he also under the permission of Quarra started learning the ways of the melding his force powers, in which Xue eventually became proficient. Xue began showing signs of becoming a unorthodox Jedi when he along with Quarra landed in Rexus Prime to look for a weapon smuggler who was selling very dangerous and unstable weapon prototypes, the pair tracked the weapon's dealer and he's bodyguard a former Jedi knight turned to the Dark side. Quarra and Xue dueled the man but Xue became separated from his master and stuck with the dark jedi by a avalanche of junk that was set off by the weapon's dealer traps. Both where sent spiral down into a pit and far from their original location. Strangely enough once both woke up, the Dark Jedi proposed that they worked together so they could find a way to escape. Xue agreed despite the fact that he knew the dark Jedi wanted to turn the padawan to the dark side, but the padawan was smarter, allowing the dark Jedi do the hardest parts of work, so the cunning padawan remained with more energy than the fallen one, in case a battle began. They spent hours digging themselves out of the junk like cave that had trapped them, during their short time together and thanks to Xue natural empaty he learned why the man had fallen to the dark side of the force, the dark jedi felt compelled to talk to the young Xue in a attempted to make him fall to the dark side. The man had fallen in love with a girl and she died and in his anger the fallen one killed his padawan and thats how he began living a life full of hatred and evil. Through the force bond Xue began thinking that it was not the dark side what turned him into a evil man but it was the man himself who chose that path. After escaping the Dark jedi who tried to torture the padawan into submission, Xue managed to elude him and created a small avalanche which "killed" the Dark Jedi. Xue was shocked that the men died as he was intending to trap him again, unknowingly to the Jedi the dark Jedi survive and swore venganze against the padawan who had shamed him. After this encounter Xue became more open minded about the force and it's applications instead of being more careful of the pulls of the dark side, something which irked the Weequay master along with it.
Making a Knight
Xue Aodh by the age of twenty was becoming more open minded about the force, and in secret began experimenting a little with the dark side of the force. Quarra felt Xue attempts in experimenting with the dark side and began giving Xue longer lectures on the folly of the dark side, this lectures had the opposite effect on Xue as he began seeing Quarra lectures and warnings as recluntase and out right ignorance from her part, the padawan began seeing her master teachings being wrong from then on. Xue felt if he was going to be a Jedi knight and fight the so called dark side he would need to understand it first.
Just before turning twenty one, Xue faced two trials at the same time. While walking through the markets of Mygeeto with her master taking a break from their duties in the planet, the pair decided to walk around. Unknowingly the Dark jedi they encountered in Rexus Prime had survived and had been plotting on how to capture and kill the Xue. He had tracked them for a whole year and in Mygeeto he made his move, he hired a couple of thugs to rob a shop while the Jedi pass through. He made sure they could escape and take diferent routes, to make sure that Quarra was separated from Xue, who as he pursued the robbers felt something wrong. Despite the fact that the Dark jedi was hiding his presence the little bond they had forged was still present and it gave off hints to the padawan. By the time Xue managed to capture the robbers the fallen Jedi revealed himself and began dueling against the Xue, the dark Jedi had the advantage of experience and power. Although Xue managed to keep up for a short time due to his training in Niman and as he employed a few elements of other forms to surprise the Dark Jedi, but those tricks did not last long. After suffering many scratches and taunting cuts, Xue was left unarmed and defeated. Quarra felt what was happening but there was no way she could reach Xue in time to save him.
The Dark jedi taunted the padawan on how weak he was becouse he lacked emotion, and for a instant made Xue tap into his anger, the both engaged once more, but Xue momentary burst of hatred did not last, disappointed that the padawan not only resisted the lure of the dark side and actually accepted his darkness and kept of walking the path of the light, made the dark Jedi so angry he forgot about his original plan and tried to kill Xue, as the lightsaber of the dark jedi came to finish the padawan. Xue led out a mighty force push filled extrangely enough a lot of peace behind it. He didn't want to die yet, he still needed to become a knight and visit his sister, he needed to tell his feelings to Rhyn, he had still things to do and he was going to fufill them. Using all his might, all his emotions and reaching a calmed state, as well as embracing the light side of the force he was able to conjure force lightning without subcoming to the lure of the dark side. The dark Jedi died between the kinetic blast and the incoming lightning. Xue fell unconcius afterward.
Xue later awoke in a hospital with a stern looking Quarra who while glad that Xue was alive was very worried as she thought Xue had touched the dark side and used the dark side, but It had been over a week since that day. Xue was back in the temple and after a long discussion to put Quarra at ease, Xue met with the worried Rhyn, who after hugging him and then slapping him to show her affection and show how worried she was, left as she had been stalling her own lessons to care for him. Xue decided not to confess his feelings yet, he was currently to weak and under the watchful eyes of Quarra to do anything like that.
After his recovery Xue spent around two more months confine inside the temple under the eye of Quarra who was seeing to what extent Xue had learn from his brush with the dark side. Xue accepted that the dark side was a part of him and it was his duty to keep it in check, and never let it control him again. This reasoning was enough to regain the trust of the Weequay master. After a full recovery Xue continued his training afterwards, becoming a little more focused on developing his abilities but at the same time became far more withdrawn and mostly he's interactions were with Quarra and Rhyn mostly.
By the Time Xue was twenty two, the council considered that he had already faced three of the trials, he had passed the trial of spirit by facing the darkness within him during his encounter with the fallen Jedi, and not succumbing to it. He had passed both the trials of courage and skill by facing not only once but twice a former Jedi Knight and survive, and both times being able to hold is own. The council was also worried about the current behaviour change Xue was going through, so to test Xue one last time they asked Quarra permission to see how Xue reacted to being exiled from the order, thye were going to test his commitment to the Jedi and the light side of the force, by tricking him into a fake exile.
The council called Xue to their chambers were they stood in a circle along with Quarra, the council surrounded Xue and proclaim their fake exile, the padawan was shocked at first, then slightly outrage not because of the sentence but because of the so called charges, since in Xue's mind it had no backup. It was so that Xue made his statement to serve life, to protect the weak and if it meant that he had to leave the Jedi behind to fulfil the duty the Jedi had given him, he would gladly accept the strange judgement the council had passed on to him. Xue renounced his lightsaber and bowed to his master, it was then that with a slight nod of the grandmaster that Quarra spoke and approached her padawan, she lighten up her lightsaber and removed Xue padawan braid and she named him a Jedi knight.
Xue did not receive his promotion all to well, he thought it was a really bad joke the council played on him and felt it was irresponsible on their part to do something like that. But he accepted the test and took on the mantle of a Jedi knight. The council was still slightly reluctant and worried about Xue mind set, but saw that his heart was in good place it was so that they hoped Xue would soon grow up from his new phase. He did not.
Love and leave your heart behind
Xue adjusted pretty well to his new duties. He enjoyed the new freedoms and duties he had receive. A few weeks after Xue's promotion, Rhyn was also promoted to the rank of knight. The pair immediately teamed up and often took mission together or simply spent their time together, both training and studying the force further in their free time. Rhyn concentrate more on her lightsaber training, while Xue focused more on balancing his training and mastery of the force as well as taking a short lesson in soresu, to boost his defensive capabilities.
Two years after their promotion Rhyn took a padawan, while Xue did not he didn't feel ready for such burden. Rhyn's padawan a Zeltron boy named Frin. Xue helped Rhyn with teaching the boy, but never became a pushing influence on the boy, but none the less the Zeltros began seeing eye to eye with Xue's phylosophy about the force, about the potentium. A little thing which Rhyn did not appreciated, which were slowly making Frin rather arrogant and proud of his skills. Aside from that the love Xue had for Rhyn grew as they passed more and more time together, her love for him also grow and they both had close brushes and tense moments but their Jedi training held and neither succumbed to their feelings.
The age of twenty eight was a turning point for Xue Aodh. It was to him the year his world shock the most, no event before or after had affected him so much. The Mission was simple, he had to track a republic fugitive and former member of a terrorist cell and detain him. For this mission partner was Rhyn alone, as she did not consider Frin ready for this type of danger. The pair tracked the fugitive to Deneba, Xue's homeworld and the place where his sister lived, as soon as Xue touched the surface of the red planet, his well develop senses felt his sister. The recently awoken remnants of their powerful bond allowed him to feel her. Rhyn felt a change inside Xue, and became slightly worried. The jedi looked for the terrorist always one step behind, as the man moved faster than they expected and eventually their chase lead them into the same town where Chen lived. The first thing Xue did after he felt how close his sister was to check her safety, Rhyn although she didn't knew what Xue was doing told him it was a mistake, and in reality it was. The terrorist was watching the Jedi, formulating a way to kill both of them, and when Xue approached his sister, the wicket man knew.
Xue reunion with Chen was the happiest moment in his life, both recognized each other at the first sight, they hugged and were happy to be reunited. Rhyn saw this and dreaded this, as the Jedi forbid contact with their families, but she kept her thoughts to herself and Xue was to happy about seeing his sister to feel Rhyn's thoughts. The terrorist watched the whole reunion formulating a plan to get rid of his pursuers. After having dinner with his sister, and catching up with her, Xue left content and was glad to have gotten the chance to see his precious sister, and their bond returned to it's former strength afterwards. He left with a silent Rhyn.
The next day Xue received a warning through the force that Chen was in danger, he rushed to the scene with Rhyn and as they walked into the house and both were trapped inside surrounded by explosives, with the terrorist holding Chen in his grasp, with bind and with a detonator in his hand. Rhyn and Xue couldn't do a thing to make the man surrender. Through his bond with Chen, Xue felt the intentions of his twin sister, she bid farewell to his brother with her mind, with a unnatural calmness and fought the terrorist, Xue understood all to well what his sister was doing and rushed into the fray trying to stop her, but Rhyn felt had a flash of the future and saw what was going to happen, so she used a massive force pull and sent Xue out the house rolling, she then jump just in time to avoid the issuing explotion. Chen, wrestle the terrorist even with her bindings and managed to get a hold of the trigger, she pressed it and the house turned to ash. Xue slammed his fist in frustation with himself, not to Rhyn... He was angry at himself so he walked away without looking back, there was nothing to look at.
Even if Xue didn't show it, his heart was broken in two. in his head he killed his sister, his hands were stained with her blood. On their trip back to the Jedi temple, Xue in his depression confessed to Rhyn about his feelings seeking confort, he left his heart open to her allowing her to console him, she accepted his feelings and they shared a kiss and a night together, the only time in their lives that they dropped their mantles as Jedi knights. They felt each other through the force and through their bodies, exploring every inch of the other, for one night they were not Jedi but lovers....
By morning both accepted each other and swore never to speak of what had happened, the lust for each other had been quench and both felt contempt to retake their roles as Jedi Knights. Xue was still heart broken but he felt like he could carry on if he had Rhyn beside him. Every night afterwards Xue received dreams of his sister and eventually after a week of dreaming with her, he talked to her and accepted her death after talking to her, and promised his sister he would be a better man.
The day after that dream he took the first shuttle he could get to Dantooine to once more bring balance to his life. In the enclave of Dantooine Xue meditated for a couple of weeks, before heading out to the caves that held lightsaber crystals. After expelling the animal occupants of the cave, Xue resumed his meditation, after almost eleven hours of meditation Xue reached a state of true balance, he could channel the force easily. Xue perfected his use of using illusions through the force and expanded on his mastery over his emotions. He returned to the Jedi enclave to rest afterward. Xue proceeded to spend a whole year in Dantooine training. By mere chance left the planet one week before it was conquered by the sith empire. Back in the Jedi temple the last event that so far marked Xue happened, once he returned to the Temple he found out that Frin was missing, so with Rhyn and a Jedi search party the group went to look for the lost padawan in the lower parts of Coruscant. Xue found Frin killing a beggar who had dirtied the padawan's boot, Xue was in such shock that at first he didn't recognize the Zeltron, he moved to arrest the fallen padawan, but was attacked by Frin, Xue could only defend himself, he didn't understand why the Zeltron had fallen to the dark side. Eventually the padawan confessed that he had tasted the dark side and wanted to feed those emotions, as they brought a strange extasis to him, the Zeltron had twisted Xue philosophy and belief in balance to a physical pleasure.
Xue was forced to cut Frin's arm to keep him from doing more harm, Rhyn entered the scene just in time to see Xue's attack. She blocked Xue's attacked thanks to a desperate force leap, but her attempted to save her padawan was wasted. She had failed to see that her padawan had been twisted by the dark side, the Zeltron killed her master by impaling her. Xue could only watched in horror as the person he loved died in front of him, the damage Xue received from the bond was to much, he couldn't think straight... he once more used the dark side and chocked the Zeltron then he force pushed Frin into a wall... Xue raised his lightsaber to strike down the fallen padawan. But then he remembered the weakness of the dark Jedi he had defeated. He lowered his arm and had the Zeltron be arrested for murder.
The fallowing year Xue secluded himself from most of the other, he eventually went to visit Frin in prison and forgave him, he understood that no one had the same strength of heart, he did not blame Frin for killing his master. For killing Rhyn. Xue accepted her death and cherished his night with her. During his slecusion Xue learned how to properly use force flash, after spending several months with a Jedi investigator he befriended, who also thought a little to Xue about how to wield a blaster. Now at the age of thirty Xue wonders what life has in stored for him.

RP Sample:
The chattering of birds, the sound of the water moving through the stream, the giggling of younglings talking among themselves, the shining light and the green grass. The room of a thousand fountains was indeed Xue's favourite part of the Jedi temple. Here he could meditate in true harmony, akin to that of the crystal cave in Dantooine, which alas was no longer avaible to him due to the current occupants of the planet. Xue was strolling through the great garden, his lips in a full smile and his eyes sparkled peace and joy. How I love this place! he took a deep breath and began seeking a place where he could rest, unlike most people who sought the garden to meditate and practice Xue often came here to nap or simply relax the worries of daily life, of course he also came to meditate and do more Jedi like things in the park.
Xue chuckled has he saw two younglings playing and bickering over who was going to be the next grandmaster "Coming for another nap are you Xue?" said a bothan who stood next to him watching the younglings "Of course esteemed guardian of the next generation" said Xue while slightly bowing to the caretaker of the younglings."By the force, I've never understood how you can be so carefree" said the bothan slightly more serious now, Here I was thinking I was going to have a relaxing morning thought the unorthodox Jedi "And what makes you think I don't worry about what is happening to the galaxy, but right now there is nothing I can do, sure I could join the blades but we know so little of our enemies, we are Jedi we can not be so hasty with our decisions" answered the human Jedi knight, the Bothan couldn't help but laugh "You sound like if you agree with the council" said the youngling instructor with a hint of a mocking tone "I do, I may not share the same view with them, my belief in the force may vary from most of the people in the order, but I do agree with their choice to not rush head on into battle." Xue boldly stated, something which took back the Bothan "Now if you will excuse me, I need to find some nice spot to take my nap" said Xue with his fox like smile while giving a slight head nod and padding the Bothan back while he walked away "Sweet dreams my strange brother" mumbled the Bothan as Xue walked away in a merry pase.
