Name: Zigwyn
Race: Nosaurian
Age: 51
Height: 4.5 feet
Weight: 120 pounds
Appearance: Zigwyn is an average-looking nosaurian. Unlike most nosaurians, his horns are perfect and majestic due to not having to fight for mates on New Plympto, and his eyes look almost constantly tired. He wears traditional Jedi robes, leather boots, and a belt. He has had optical surgeries to enhance his vision so that he is not colorblind like the rest of the Nosaurians, however this is not noticeable.
Birth place: New Plympto
Faction: Jedi
Rank: Youngling, Knight, Consular, Guardian, Sentinel. (A youngling can become a Padawan if chosen by a current Knight, Consular, Guardian, or Sentinel. Once chosen as a Padawan, the Knight, Consular, Guardian, or Sentinel will aquire the Rank of Master. Otherwise they are simply to be refered to by their Rank, or force study diliniations. A Grand Master must have had at least one Padawan.)
Bio: Zigwyn was born on New Plympto to a loving mother and a now dead father. His mother cared for him just as any other Nosaurian would, until, when Zigwyn was at the age of two, she died in a tragic rockslide on her way back from getting food for her baby. Zigwyn was then "raised" by his old and extremely forgetfull relative, how they were related he did not know. from age 3 to five, Zigwyn spent his days wandering around a junk feild while his increasingly demented relative sat on the floor of her little hut and blankly stared at the wall.
on his fith birthday, the engines of a huge corellian traders ship could be heard landing just a quarter of a mile away from his location. Soon, the nosaurian traders had gathered around the ship carrying goods such as Rikkik Eggs. This was a normal process for the inhabitants of New Plympto, but not for Zigwyn, as this was the first time he had actually gone to investigate the sound of the ships. He was struck with bewildernent at the big ship in front of him. He had grown up in an extremely remote area with his mother, and had never seen humans and their culture before. Out of shear youthful curiosity, the young Zigwyn crawled into a large crate near the ship to see what was inside. The little Nosaurian was quite disapointed when he discovered that the box was empty.
A disgruntled corellian man looked at his captian, who was overseeing the trading process. The two had got in a domestic conflict a month back, and the captain put the man on boxing duty. The angry man was not even looking at his box when he slammed the cover down right on Zigwyn's forehead, knocking him unconscious. The box was then loaded onto the ship.
Zigwyn awoke in the dark. In a moment of fright, he lashed out above his head and pushed the top of the box off. It was very cold, and the ground was the same metal as the ship. It didnt take very long for the now frantic and out-of-box little creature to make the connection about the events that had transpired from the time that he had entered the box. Another trader entered the cargo hold as little Zigwyn was just sort of sitting there in shock, and immediatley the trader pulled his blaster out to shoot the little creature, and Zigwyn, so very scared, almost instantly sort of told the man in his own way (nosaurian language) to lower his gun and go away. The man just went away. As Zigwyn wept with releif, the astonished trader made a hasty report to his jedi freind on corellia. The man had been influenced by mind tricks before, and had been affected by enough of them that he knew when he had been tricked. This was unmistakably a jedi mind trick.
They had already landed on corellia when the Jedi came on board. She was a wonderfully kind and loving jedi, and had a way of dimming down one's fright and despair. The jedi had spent some time on new plympto, and spoke nosaurian. The jedi spent five hours speaking to Zigwyn, asking him where his family was, what he did to the corellian, and if this had ever happened before. He answered very honestly to all her questions, and after she had told him about what she had in store for him if he chose to accept it, he was filled with bewonderment and excitement. The jedi was confused as to how he could have possibly performed a mind trick at his young age and with no training, but she sensed the force was very strong with him, and after performing a medichlorien test, she discovered that he had force potential and brought him before the council.
The council was very skeptical on giving Zigwyn training. They siad that the mind trick was almost to the point of mind control, which should never be used. Never the less, the council allowed him to train under a jedi archivist named Bavrim. For Bavrim beleived that all jedi should be trained according to their original specialties, or what force ability seemed most prevalent in that pupil. The council was still looking into his un beleiveable ability to preform a mind trick on a grown man, and they were ever suspicious of this power. So they limited Zigwyn's studies of force abilities to the files in the archives until the council deemed him ok for actual training. In the 10 years it took the council to get around to his case, Zigwyn learned alot, like how to speak galactic basic , all about the history of the jedi, how to use different force abilities (although he never actually used them) And he spent a great time of his studies learning about the cultures,technologies, races, and planets of the galaxy under the supervision of his master. When the time for his training came after his case was classified as a complex rare occurance that had been named "force adrenaline" (for convenience), Zigwyn embarked on a rough and strict training program, and he left the comfort of the archives to the rough training rooms, where he learned first the for of Shii-cho. After mastering Shii-cho at the age of 20, Zigwyn commenced with training in force abilities, especially the mind trick, which didnt actually take much training at all. For another 10 years, Zigwyn dedicated his life to mastering the mind trick and ever improving his knowlege and lightsaber combat. The sense of being behind in his learning and knowlege of the force prompted him to stay in the archives, and avoid the missions that he was not ready for. In Short, Zigwyn spent more time in the archives than most other jedi of his generation, and learnt a great deal, but his swordplay suffered, and he had only mastered Shii-Cho by age 27, which was also the age he completed his trials and became a knight. When Zigwyn became a knight,and his master took a new padawan. When Zigwyn's master took a new padawan, Zigwyn kept in touch with his master, but also became more independent, going on missions for the order. Mostly, his missions consisted of quelling small pirate uprisings with a few other jedi or a squad from the local defense forces. At age 34, Zigwyn showed great force power when he performed a mind trick on a skilled bounty hunter, infamous for killing many jedi, to lower his pistol from the head of a Jedi captive. He then, instead of killing the bounty hunter, brought him to justice by knocking him out, and bringing him to coruscant for imprisonment. This Bounty hunter had been known to resist jedi mind tricks before. After performing this oustanding act and service, Zigwyn was honored as a jedi consular becuase he clearly used non-violent tactics as a jedi to the best of his ability, and thought things through on his missions. After becoming consular, however, A fellow jedi suggested that he practiced another form besides the basic Shii-Cho, preferably Ataru because of his small stature. So, The disciplined 35 year-old jedi spent a great deal of his time with training in ataru under a few different jedi swordsmen. At age 38, Zigwyn was skilled in ataru. At age 39, his old master died, and Zigwyn took his padawan as his apprentice, thus becoming a master. On the way back from the funeral of their old master, Zigwyn and his new padawan were in separate spaceships, when his padawans ship had engine troubles and crashed into an asteroid. Having never actually trained his padawan, Zigwyn relinquished the title of master and became a consular once more, but they were really the same thing, so it mattered not. In his now full independence from masters as a jedi, Zigwyn has looked into the study of force lightning to make up for his less advanced saber combat, although this was a practice associated with the sith, jedi had been known to use it as well.
