Name: Jevan Sheotah
Race: Miraluka/Human
Age: 11
Height: 4'7"
Weight: 88 lbs
Appearance: Jevan is a generally average young man in terms of height and stature. He has a slimmer body type, with a medium build and frame, giving him an overall athletic look. Though his facial features are strong, they have a graceful touch to them, largely thanks to the Miraluka side of his parentage. His jawline is triangular rather than square and higher set, tapering to a small chin. His nose likewise is smaller, and more triangular in shape rather than rounded, accented by cheekbones which are just slightly higher than average. His eyes are of average size and shape, with medium lashes, and bright mint green coloration.
His hair is straight and fine in texture, being a lighter dusty brown in color. While it is tied into the padawan braid at the back, it still has some length at the front, with small bangs which fall to cover the first inch or so of his forehead, which is about average in size. His skin is very fair, not to the point of being pale, but enough that his hair and eyes contrast well against it. He wears the traditional light brown padawan garb, but with a deep brown leather vest over his tunic, as well as leather boots and a pair of fingerless cloth gloves of the same color. He wears a wrap meant to cover up the eyes around his neck, which is a deep emerald green in color.
Personality: As he is still very young, much of Jevan's personality has yet to be discovered, by both him and others. He is a very quiet child, not due to a shy nature, but rather an observational one. Even at this young age, he prefers to watch and listen rather than to reveal his thoughts or feelings, for several reasons. People that he does open up to, however, find a very different person than they might expect. He is quite intelligent, largely because of how much he listens, and also because he possesses an interest in learning. He is also quite kind by nature, and can be very confident and determined when he wishes to be. Because of where and how he grew up, Jevan is also very mature despite his young age.
Despite his good qualities, Jevan has many issues, many of which go undiscovered due to his young age. Being abandoned by his parents, he has difficulty trusting, which is a big part of the reason he is so quiet. This also gives him the potential for problems with authority. In his classes as a youngling, he displayed an affinity for finding his own solutions to problems, even if said solutions were not the way his teachers wished the problem solved. This makes him resourceful, but also means that he tends to rely on himself. It also gives him a tendency to be solitary, though being a padawan this will have to be overcome.

Bio:
Before Jevan
Jevan has never known his parents, or any of his family. Unbeknownst to him, his mother, Lynorri Sheotah, was a failed initiate at the Jedi Academy on Coruscant. Though strong in the force, she showed a lack of commitment to the order, nor was she able to sever her connections to the past and so was returned to her parents at the age of 13. Living out a normal life, she grew older, and met a human by the name of Kiber. Her family warned her of what could happen were a Miraluka and human to have a child, but rebelliously she married the human, determined that they simply would not have any. However, just one years later, a child was born to them. Though she attempted to keep Jevan for the first two years of his life, she was unprepared for the responsibility of a child, and afraid of what he might become. Allowing her fear to control her, she abandoned her child, leaving him on the planet of Foerost in a refugee camp.
Age 2 - 5
As a child in the refugee camps, Jevan's early life did nothing to improve the issues that his mother had already started by abandoning him. He was found by a Rodian named Sen Kelrune in the camp, who took him in, and taught him basic, which he grasped quickly. As he grew older, he began to display signs of force sensitivity. He developed the quickened reflexes typical of all force sensitives. However, while his physical sight was intact, he also began to develop force sight, passed down from his mother. As a child, unable to control it, he would shift back and forth between normal sight and force sight. Trying to explain what was happening to him further estranged him from most in the camps, even eventually driving Sen to abandon him as well at the age of 4.
One year later found him barely surviving in the camps, even occasionally using his quicker reflexes to steal from others. Up until this point, the sub-par standards of living within the camps had guaranteed that he had avoided midichlorian counts, which had so far kept him concealed from the Jedi. At the age of 5 however, a Jedi Watchman took notice of his connection to the force, and came to investigate. Afraid both of his own abilities and conditioned to believe that someone looking for him was not a good thing, he ran from the Watchman, but was found hiding in the camp. He was surprised when the man did not hurt him, but offered to take him somewhere that could help him, and explain what was happening. the Watchman arranged for him to be sent to Coruscant, and the Jedi Temple there.
Age 6 - Present
Life improved vastly for Jevan upon his arrival at the Jedi Temple. Though he was initially terrified by the change, and took time to acclimate to life at the temple, he found that he liked it there. He was surrounded for the first time people who did not find him strange or shun him for his strange abilities. He took to his lessons, finding that he learned quickly in many areas, but particularly in lightsaber and unarmed combat. He also excelled academically, especially in history, and found that he enjoyed learning. He remained very solitary, not making many friends, and choosing to spend much of his time on his own. The friends that he did make were often older Jedi or padawan, one in particular a young woman by the name of Lierra Vuull whom he met at the age of 8. A Miraluka padawan who understood his struggles, she took him under her wing for a time. It was she who revealed to him the other half of his parentage, and with her help, he came to control his force sight. The two were close, but eventually duty called Lierra away with her master. For weeks he waited for her return. However, when Lierra's master returned, she returned alone, her padawan killed in a dispute on Ruan. The only thing of hers the master returned with was Lierra's emerald green eye covering, which she gave to Jevan. With Lierra gone, Jevan retreated further into himself, focusing on his training.
As he continued to grow older, Jevan took strongly to the Jedi philosophy. Growing up in the refugee camp, he had taken notice of the pain and suffering of those around him, and had experienced the struggle to survive first hand himself. He realized that he had found a place where he could make a difference, and so when he reached the age of 10 he intensified his training, hoping that he would become a padawan quickly. He still remained very solitary, finding it difficult to trust even his teachers and instructors, spending much of his time alone in the archives or devoting himself to training. In addition, he found it difficult to act as part of a team, often coming up with his own solutions to problems, and heavily relying on his own abilities. While his teachers noted these things, they also saw in him resourcefulness and focus, and so at the age of 11 he was presented before the masters to be chosen as a padawan. He was chosen by the Jedi knight Dan Firestar, and now waits to begin his training as an apprentice in earnest.
RP Sample:
Jevan sat cross-legged in his chambers, eyes closed, trying to meditate. The pounding in his chest, however, was making it hard to focus. Eventually giving up, he hung his legs over the edge of his bed, staring at the door. It had only been a few minutes ago that he had been presented by his teachers to the masters, and had been chosen! Now thousands of questions were flying through his head. What was Firestar like? What would his first mission be? How long would it be until he made his first lightsaber? He was excited and curious and a little afraid all at the same time. He would have to increase his training, make himself stronger to meet the challenge. He was determined to be successful as a padawan. All these thoughts and feelings rushed through him. His master would be coming through that door any minute now, and his life as a Jedi would begin.
Thirty minutes later found him pacing back and forth, crossing and recrossing the room again and again. He kept glancing the door, running a hand through his hair. What was taking so long? He had imagined his master would be right behind him, and he would be able to get to his training right away. Was this some kind of test? Had Master Firestar changed his mind? He fought the worries rising in his chest, and returned to sitting on his bed, legs crossed, trying to focus. It didn't work. All he had to do was sit and wait! He knew he was being impatient, but it was hard not to be with all this waiting! Opening his eyes finally, he sat and stared at the door again, wishing it would open up.
