Okay. I'll put the code on it later today. Sorry for my stupidity.

Not quite yet dude, sorry. Only the subject headers should be bolded. The rest of it should be unbolded.

Okay Nihilicus, you finally got the format right, so now, let's look at everything else. This is just a first review.
Race: Did the duel turn him into something not-human? No? Then just put down human and leave the rest out.
That is about 40lbs underweight. How does he function at all?
Appearance: This is more than just slender and thin. This is grotesquely underweight. Also above you say he was ravaged from a duel, but here you say it was because of a Sith torture session? I'm assuming the “Sith torture session” is from your previous version of this, so I suggest getting rid of it. Sooo... he's Darth Vader? Just checking. Also this is a very short appearance section. We need a bit more; like what does he look like under the respirator helmet. Does he have scars elsewhere? What color are his eyes? How does he walk and move? Does he look imposing, or, given that he's ridiculously underweight, does he look like a skeleton wearing all black? Please read other accepted bios to get an idea of what we're looking for.
Personality: Again, this looks like something that you forgot to get rid of when we told you that there could be no mention of the Sith prior to two years ago. Get rid of it, or explain it in your bio.
Bio: I'm going to say this right off the bat; this bio is way too short. Please read other accepted bios to get an idea of what we're looking for. A good rule of thumb, (though not an absolute requirement) is about on good paragraph for every 2-3 years of life. Major events need to be covered, as well as family, friends, and training. You're going to have to do a lot more work.
Two things. First of all Courscant is a Core World. That means all children, regardless of circumstance, are tested at birth. That means Xaen would have been discovered as being Force Sensitive when he was a newborn and taken to the temple. Now, if you decide to change planets so that he's not on a Core World, the oldest a child can be enlisted as a Jedi is 6. Any older than 6 and they are too old to become full Jedi. So change his location, change his age, or change this part of the bio altogether.
Um.... Jedi Padawans are expected to follow orders. That's expected. It doesn't actually prove anything about Xaen.
This is way way too rushed. You cover 13 years in one paragraph, you never talk about what lead to Xaen being mutilated, and there is just not enough about his training, his experience with the Jedi, his gaining a lightsaber, his fall to the Dark Side, anything. Also
Take this out. Just present the bio as it is don't ask if things look okay in the middle of it.
Force-Sensitive Abilities or Practices:
These stats are far too high for a 25 year old; and you have too many points in too many areas. Jedi are highly specialized creatures. For one, Jedi don't learn destruction – only Dark Jedi and Sith do. If he's only been Darkside for a year, his points in Destruction are not going to be at an 8. You are certainly not going to be allowed two sevens and two eights as your stats. I'm not sure what a better build would be – I'd take a look at other accepted bios to see what would be acceptable. I'd drop Destruction down for sure, as well as a few others.
Attributes: Again, some of these stats are too high, and the bio doesn't support them. An 8 in intelligence is considered genius-level to the point of being nonfunctional in society. I would say it's impossible to have an 8 in intelligence AND an 8 in leadership – since leadership requires a person to be able to actually interact with people. Also given how severely underweight he is, I would drop physical strength down even more – a 3 at most – Seriously, at that height and weight, he is going to have no muscle tone whatsoever and I would think could barely make it through the day without passing out.
These are also too high. If he is a Jedi, than the only thing he would be trained in is lightsaber – which covers none of these things. He may have learned one as a hobby, but there's no way he would have learned all three, and there's no way he would have anywhere near a 7 in any of these. Drop them down.
RP Sample:
This is not an RP Sample. A roleplay sample is an example of how you plan on writing your character; you write it like you would write a post in a thread. Take out the brackets, and give me more than two sentences of actual post. I recommend reading some of the actual in character threads to get a sense of style and also read RP Samples from Accepted bios to get an idea of what we're looking for.
Please remove this note
Final Suggestions
You need to add a lot more your to your bio. Right now it's way too short.
Lower your stats – most of them, except for the lightsaber forms, are way too high.
You're going to have to make some major adjustments to his early life – he's born on a Core World, which means he should have been with the Jedi practically from birth. Even on the other worlds, if he was over the age of 6, he would not have been trained as a full Jedi.
I STRONGLY recommend reading the bios of the other accepted Sith, Dark Jedi, and normal Jedi to get an idea of the level of information and detail that we're looking for, and especially what we're looking for in the RP samples. It's going to take a lot of work to get this bio up to snuff.
