He is covered head to toe with light reddish-brown fur, all one color with no notable patterns or spots. Eko's fur is not very long, and though it doesn’t grow very fast, when it does he always prefers to keep it very trimmed and well styled. His eyes are small, almond shaped and black. As a Drall, his arms and legs are short, and his hands and feet are clawed. Eko, though covered in fur and technically not needing to wear clothing, always wears garments when in front of others. He always chooses to be seen in his typical Jedi robe and tunic at all functions/missions, preferring it over anything else. He does have some other outfits, such as formal wear and other styles of robes, but he usually prefers his main outfit over all the rest. Eko will never, even in the middle of a battlefield or war, wear armors or anything heavy that could slow him down. Personality Profile Eko is a very genuine and compassionate person that is always searching the world for the light in the dark. He believes in people and believes in redemption, and is always willing to listen to both sides of a story. He strives to try and understand each individual’s reasoning and point of view without making any judgements. Eko believes that all people have some good inside of them that is waiting to be set free, and always strives to find solutions to problems through words and logic instead of through violence. He never makes any snap decisions or judgments of others, nor does he condemn others for mistakes they have made. His nature makes him a likeable person, someone that can be trusted and relied upon. Eko has also been known to be a bit of a prankster and jokester within the Jedi Order as well. He always likes to keep a great sense of humor about him and strives to keep others around him at ease with a bit of humor. He always tries to find the best in a bad situation, and will do whatever he can to help anyone in need. Though he does believe in finding the light in all people, he isn’t naive and does not allow himself to be taken for a fool, especially when confronting his opponents. When engaged, he fights with an unrelenting determination, never allowing his opponents to get the upper hand on him. He is a beacon of the light, someone that will always be there to beat back the darkness. Background Father • Garth (deceased) Mother • Norghari (deceased) Siblings • None Other Important Connections • Various other unknown family members, of which he has virtually no contact with Overall History • Eko was born to a very loving and caring family on the Drall homeworld. Though he was the only child to his loving parents, his extended family was exceptionally large, both on his mother's and father's sides. They all rejoiced at Eko's birth, using any and all excuses to come together to celebrate and see one another. For a time, they were extremely happy together. However, not too long after he was born, when Eko was only three years old, he had the virtue of being discovered by a visiting Jedi knight on a mission from the Jedi Order. The knight, sensing the Force flow rather strongly through the young child, explained to Eko's parents the ideals of the Jedi and the future their son could have making a positive difference and influence in the galaxy. Though sadden, his parents Garth and Norghari knew the Jedi and the good that their Order did for the Republic and agreed that it would be best to send Eko to train with them, allowing him to hone his skills and talents in the Force. For the next several years until he reached maturity, Eko studied at the Jedi Temple as a youngling under the tutelage of many different Jedi Masters. He began to hone his senses and skills through the Force, as well as begin the entry levels of lightsaber training. It had been difficult for him at first, especially using a lightsaber, due to him barely standing in at two feet tall. But he never gave up, every time he fell down or failed at something it only made him that much more motivated to succeed. He began to learn from several masters to overcome his height difference by using the Force to enhance his jumping and speed, allowing him to reach where he couldn’t before. It took many lessons, but eventually Eko mastered the necessary talents. As Eko got older and more mature, he was taken as a Padawan learner by Jedi Master Koren Dath. Koren sensed the force potential of his new pupil and knew he would make an excellent student. Master Koren was tough and firm on Eko, putting him through rigorous trials and tests throughout the years, but the training had been paying off in the end. Eko's abilities, both in lightsaber combat and force technique were progressing along at a faster than expected rate, faster than any of his previous Padawans. The two of them went on several missions for the Order, including some long term reconnaissance and undercover type missions, and had an impressive success rate. Not before too long, Master Dath had recommended to the council that Eko be put through the Jedi trails. Eko was very appreciative of his master and all of the lessons that he was taught. Though attachments are forbidden in the Jedi Order, the two of them developed a brotherly bond and became very close. Having passed his trails and promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight, the two of them were sent on yet another mission of the order: investigate reports of smuggling and corruption in the lower sections of Coruscant. It had been a difficult mission, with no one in the lower ring wanting to be seen with Jedi, but they had eventually landed upon a lead and were getting closer and closer to the truth of what was really going on. Unfortunately, the information leaked was a trap set specifically for them and in their escape, Master Dath suffered fatal wounds and passed away. It was tough dealing with the loss of his master, but Eko rebounded and chose to celebrate Master Dath’s life rather than mourn his loss. Several years had passed, Eko now a master himself and taking on numerous students along the way, passing on what he’s learned himself as well as the lessons that his master taught him. He is hoping to be a positive force in all of his Padawan’s lives as Master Dath was in his. |
