Bio:
Born on Tyrena, Corellia, Jasen Mors carried within his blood the proud heritage of decorated pilots and a handful of strong Jedi Knights. His family had held much success in piloting due to their roots in the force, many of them seemed unmotivated to become Jedi as the family preferred it's role in piloting over learning the ways of the Force and helping others. This family's selfish nature would eventually bring out a black sheep. The young, yet incredibly selfless, Jasen Mors. Despite his young age his good nature was around for everybody to see, simple acts such as sharing his toys and comforting the upset was alien for the Mors family, however his good nature and strong connection to the Force caught the attention of a Corellian Jedi Knight, Melrax Orran, who took the young Jasen Mors under his wing for a short while, possibly saving the good hearted young boy from being corrupted by his family's ways.
As a youngling, Jasen learnt at a normal pace, possibly due to the fact he didn't care much for being taught by anybody other than Orran, a man who Jasen had the utmost respect and admiration for. At nine, Jasen grew bored of the basic teachings and escaped the Temple to explore Coruscant, wanting to finally see this still unfamiliar world to him, despite being there four years by now. The world was fascinating to a young Jasen, spaceships and speeders of different shapes and sizes, the sound of various types of music from different cultures, the smells of various alien foods being sold, it was all new, all exciting. He was soon found by Orran, glad to finally see the man who he saw as a father, added to his hunger for adventures after his short experience on Coruscant, Jasen wanted to advance forward and start his Padawan years. There were consequences for his little escape however and was placed under constance surveillance until his Padawan years begun. This frustrated Jasen at first as he always wished to make a second escape as his need for adventure grew day by day, his time would eventually come however.
When Jasen turned eleven, Orran officially made Jasen his Padawan. Jasen's Padawan years were tough, as they were for every other training Padawan, but Orran was a patient master and gave the young and impatient Mors time to improve, eventually the young man learnt patience and developed a strong ability with a lightsaber, further developing his connection to the Force, which over time only grew and he was recognised as a talented young Jedi who would one day become a strong Jedi Knight. As a Padawan he spent most of his time within the Jedi Temple, learning more about the Force and regularly watching holocrons of Jedi teachings, trying his best to further his knowledge and become like his master. His earlier missions were simple and worked towards improving Jasen's impatience, things such as simply helping solve a crime mystery by asking witnesses for details and eventually finding the person who committed the crime under the guidance and constant watchful eye of his master. As he progressed, his tasks were increasing in difficulty, including dealing with the local petty crime and using his patience to avert violence but covincing the person it wasn't necessary, and his final test mission was to sit and wait for his master who left him for an unconfirmed amount of time. The test was simple for just about anybody else, but not for Jasen, he had to sit and wait in the exact spot for hours upon end, he was never used to sitting and waiting, he preferred moving about, exploring, he enjoyed adventure. Eventually, after almost a day of sitting still, his master returned to confirm that he had passed this final test, and that finally he'd start his real missions.
At fourteen he embarked upon his first real dangerous mission with his master. His first mission was a simple one, bring a rogue Bounty Hunter before the Jedi Council, the reason behind this was this Hunter, named Kir Linth, had a thirst for killing the Jedi, funded by an unknown, but theorised to be a Crime Lord with power, whom the Jedi is damaging business for. The mission took them to Nar Shaddaa, home of the scum and villainy, finding the Bounty Hunter wasn't hard, he was slumped in a bar downing drink after drink. The two Jedi moved to arrest him, however he managed to set off a smoke grenade which allowed him his quick escape, the chase began. The two quickly tracked him down by asking various people around the bar, most where unwilling to help but one person told them where the Hunter's apartment was, possibly due to this man being one of his targets. Upon reaching the apartment they were immediately ambushed by a small force of droids, owned by the Hunter as a security force, they dealt with these droids in relative ease however with simple lightsaber manoeuvres and force powers. Jasen's first taste of battle, he enjoyed the ease of it and it perhaps made him somewhat arrogant for the time being. They confronted the Bounty Hunter, and it was soon obvious he wouldn't go anywhere without a fight as he quickly set off an explosion that caught Orran within it, leaving Jasen to battle alone without his master on his first ever mission, the young Padawan was afraid, he knew he shouldn't be but he couldn't help it. The Hunter and Padawan duelled, vibroblade to saber, with the momentum shifting constantly due to Jasen's nerves and overconfidence constantly switching which caused him to both better the Hunter but also fall when he fought back. Jasen soon took advantage with a simple Force Push, sending the Hunter crashing into a wall, the Padawan then brought down a vent onto the Hunter to stop him as he saw to his master. The young Padawan took both the body of his master and the Bounty Hunter back to the Temple. As the body of Orran was burned, the young Padawan watched on as he saw the man who represented his father figure, his idol, burn.
Jasen was soon assigned a new master, but he felt cold, almost dead inside without his master around, he became far more ferocious in his missions with Savdo Kutran, his new master, slaughtering anything standing between him and the mission objective. The continued training was now made tougher by Jasen's lack of compassion. It drove him to the extent he became quite immersed within himself, never speaking and simply ignoring the requests of Savdo. However his actions drew the attention of the Council and they finally managed to convince him into talking about his sudden change of personality. Over time he slowly managed to let go of this anger, the Jasen of old returning in a painful process of trial and error, with the young Padawan making mistakes and becoming enraged by his opponents. By the time Jasen reached 22 after many years of anger, hatred and destruction, he reached the age of Knighthood. He had shown a vast improvement in his personality and his patience had returned, remembering the techniques taught to him by Orran and the tests he gave him. Jasen was made a Knight at the age of twenty two. Soon after he was sent to Rhen Var to negotiate on behalf of the Republic a military deal in which the Republic could use the planet as a base for it's unassuming nature of an icy abyss and almost lifeless tundras, however he had more than he expected upon reaching the planet...

RP Sample:
The mission they set out before the man wouldn't be his easiest. He had encountered problems of every kind; droids, Bounty Hunters, soldiers, well trained assassins, however he faced his toughest challenge yet. Politics. The council had appointed him to negotiate a military based deal for strategic purposes. Jasen hated politics.
His old star fighter landed on the bay of the planet, the small fighter was battered from years of use and dark red with white symbol markings, the engine's were turned off and the pit opened as a hooded man stepped out. He looked around as he made his way down to the bay, stepping onto the lightly snow covered dark grey platform. He was somewhat apprehensive about this mission, it was his first ever diplomatic experience and he was used to the negotiating with a lightsaber rather than sitting down and discussing it.
He felt the cold almost gently make it's way around his heavily cloaked body, seemingly attempting to lure him into a false sense of security before the wicked ice cold winds would suddenly assault him. Before him was a large white building, something of a camouflage to fit into the white tundra. Either side of the somewhat grand entrance with a fair few steps leading to it were two armed guards, wearing white outfits and therefore are also camouflaged, they stood guard and eyed the man as he slowly made his way into the building. Once inside he removed the hood, revealing his features. He shook his hair with his right hand and began to sense something, it felt near and he couldn't help but wonder how he failed to feel it before. A feeling of darkness stood in the back of his mind as he ventured forward into the lobby.
The lobby was large and continued the white theme, pillars stood in a circle around the room, holding up the floor above, and the desk was simple and white, with a lone woman sat behind it with dark brown, tied back hair, and wearing a dark grey uniform. She smiled at the man. “Can I help you, Sir?”, she asked politely, “Yes, please. I'm here to meet with Senator Ardran Tarsiri.”, he replied quickly, his voice showed many years of living amongst Jedi with its calming tone. “You must be Jedi Knight Jasen Mors. The Senator is expecting you.”, “Thank you.”, Jasen made his way through an average sized doorway which led to a long corridor, it too was decorated in a simple white. He slowly made his way down, still sensing a darker presence nearby, he expected the unexpected.
Jasen approached the Senator's office, hidden behind a doorway. He attempted to open it, however, to his surprise it was locked. Sensing the dark presence beyond the door he expected the worse, had a Dark Jedi really beaten him to the Senator? He was about to find out as he pulled his lightsaber out, and ignited it, the orange blade was bright and powerful. He began to cut his way through the large door, his progress was slow, but that was the least of his worries now, he could sense the presence, moving around, above him. He looked up quickly but saw nothing, turning back to the door he once again felt the darkness, this time behind him, he once again turned but saw nothing and decided to go back to the door. Once again facing the door, Jasen realised something wasn't right and looked to his right, stood there was a man of above average height, fairly strong build, wearing dark grey and black garments with a black hood over his head, hiding his eyes in the shadow. From what little features he could see, the man appeared to be around his forties. A large grin appears on the man's face. “Good to finally meet you, Jedi Knight.”, his voice sounded rough and coarse. Out of the blue the man threw his arm forward, sending a cascade of power towards Jasen, ultimately causing the Jedi Knight to fly backwards, crashing into a wall as pieces electrical equipment dropped onto him. The man, now recognised as a Dark Jedi, ignited his bright red lightsaber and leaped towards Jasen, who instinctively rolled out of the way to avoid contact with the Dark Jedi's lightsaber. Using the force he turned his own lightsaber off and pulled it towards him, catching it and rolling forward quickly to avoid being hit once again, this time Jasen stood up and once again ignited his lightsaber, they both took their stances, Jasen holding his with two hands, mere inches away from his forehead as the saber would look to rest on his brow from a distance. The Dark Jedi took a far more offensive stance, holding it one handed he pointed the lightsaber directly at his opponent. Jasen felt the strong connection to the dark side this man held, he knew there and then that this man would not be a push over like the droids, Bounty Hunters and guards he has faced before, this man would be a true test, finally Jasen could prove he was talented with his lightsaber. Having practised for years, the time had come.
Both men stared each other down, daring one another to make the first move, the Dark Jedi takes the chance to swing an attack towards Jasen, heading for his left leg. Jasen immediately recognised an attempt of cho mok, an aggressive move but nevertheless he was duelling a man corrupted by the dark side and he couldn't expect any less. Jasen quickly lowered his own lightsaber in a 180 degree spin downwards to push away the lightsaber, the Jedi quickly followed through and kept the momentum by further spinning his body anti-clockwise and attempted to disarm his opponent by attacking his weapon wielding arm, Jasen preferred this technique to all others as he felt it more humane to stop the fight quickly and to deal a lesser amount of pain than he would if he dealt a killing blow, the corrupted veteran managed to block the attack however and the two stood, saber to saber, trying to out muscle the other. Jasen noticed his opponent's left hand withdrawing from the lightsaber and towards the body, forming into a tight fist, Jasen quickly sensed the Force rushing towards this man's hand and building up, immediately knowing what was happening the young Knight pushed away the Dark Jedi with his lightsaber and shot a short Force Push towards him, quickly halting the build up of power as the man crashed into the doorway, slamming through the half completed cutting, landing into the Senator's office. Jasen squeezed his way through the small gap and stepped into the office, noticing a lavishly decorated high ceiling room, the walls were dark red and sat behind the somewhat large white desk was the Senator, tied to his large white chair.
The Knight inspected the room, walking forwards to near the Senator, however he sensed the dark side encased within a shell of a man nearby, he turned around and was able to block the Dark Jedi's saber with his own as the man had attempted to cut Jasen's head off, a typical Sith tactic. The two once again stand toe to toe, saber to saber, staring each other down. The hatred of this man was in his eyes, burning brightly, corrupting his very being and tainting his soul, if there was any good in this man, it was lost long ago, Jasen could feel this man's very desire to end the young Jedi's life, the crackle of the lightsaber's touching each other quickly broke Jasen from his trance of the Force sensing state and he quickly pushed the man away with his superior strength and followed up by holding his saber overhead and delivering quick, but unsuccessful shots to the left and the right of the Dark Jedi as he easily blocked the Knight's attempts, however he wasn't disheartened by the unsuccessful strikes and quickly spun anti-clockwise in a 360 spin to deliver another blocked attempt. Once again the young Jedi wasn't disheartened and simply took his fighting stance, awaiting the recovery of his opponent. Instead of the expected barrage of attacks however, the Dark Jedi drew upon the Force to pull an empty seat from by the desk of the Senator and sent it flying towards Jasen who failed to expect this and was caught off guard, as a result he was sent flying backwards into a wall and slid downwards, now sitting on the floor and leaning back against the wall. For a second time the Dark Jedi leaps towards Jasen and yet again, Jasen rolls aside to avoid contact with the lightsaber, but the man was prepared this time and quickly leaped back up and performed a barrel roll in mid-air to float above Jasen, who reacted in time to Force push away the floating evil, the Knight then threw himself into the air, rolling forwards and landing in front of the Dark Jedi who had hit the wall but quickly stood up. Jasen, now wielding his saber one handed, was easily blocking the Dark Jedi's attempts of disarming or injuring him and blocked a last desperate attempt of decapitating the young Knight and took advantage of the wide open chance to disarm his opponent and does so with ease, cutting off the man's saber wielding hand, causing him to collapse from pain and exhaustion.
He immediately released the Senator using his lightsaber to cut the cuffs the Dark Jedi had fitted on him to prevent escape. It was obvious that this was not the appropriate time to discuss the negotiations, the dark side had attempted to prevent the negotiations and action against them would be needed. Jasen knew he needed to take this man back to the Jedi Temple to put him before the Council, there they could hope to gain information from him. He turned around to collect the man, but he had disappeared, he looked around for him but saw him at the window ledge, grinning once again at the young Knight and diving out of the window. Jasen rushed towards it but the blizzard was too thick for him to able to see the man, he had escaped, the Jedi was disappointed in himself for letting the man get away, but somehow knew he'd face him one day again.
