Birth place: Coruscant
Faction: Jedi
Rank: Jedi Knight- Guardian
Bio:Terek Dol was born in the Uscru Entertainment District on Coruscant. His father was an associate of a local Dug gangster and his mother, a member of the galaxies oldest profession. Tragically disaster struck his already depressing life almost immediately. His mother abandoned him with his father after birth, and his father was promptly killed by his associate the Dug crime lord immediately afterwards in front of the child. Left abandoned at the age of 1 he was taken in by street vendors and raised by them.
At the age of 3 while his surrogate parents were vending near the Senate, a Jedi Master stopped to buy a meal of Giju Stew, he immediately sensed the aura of the force around the youngling who had always had had strange abilities to scatter pebbles without touching them. The Jedi asked to take young Terek away so he could become a Jedi but his surrogate parents objected, they wished for a price for the child. The Jedi was reviled and immediately took Terek and ended up wounding his surrogate father after he pulled a gun and threatened to shoot Terek.
Terek was brought to Coruscant where he trained with other younglings. He was a restless youth, he was unable to meditate for long and always eager to practice with a lightsaber with which he excelled due to his extra appendages. He trained with several Masters who volunteered their time including his future Master Lierra Ziracch. He always excelled in lightsaber duels, defeating most of the other younglings. This didn’t help his popularity and he was friendless for most of his childhood.
At the age of 10 he was taken to become the padawan of Jedi Master Lierra Ziracch who had trained him when he was a youngling. She immediately realized his affinity for lightsaber combat, and tried to balance out his skills to include better use of the force, at which she failed miserably. Over time he became more competent at both but he always heavily favored the lightsaber.
Year after year his abilities improved. His Master at the age of 15 after he was competent enough at Shii-Cho that she taught him the form of Niman, as to allow him to become a balanced fighter, he excelled and quickly was fluent with the form. His Master then began to train him to take advantage of his limbs with the Jar’Kai form, where he was trained to use two lightsaber which he rarely does, it is the only form he has practiced since, and is even better at it than he is at Niman.
When he was sixteen, Terek began construction on his lightsabers in the caves of IIum. Through meditation Terek selected the suitable crystals, and carefully constructed the lightsabers, making sure each piece fit perfectly, and that he felt comfortable with the color, hilt, length, and width of his lightsaber. After a month Terek finished constructing his lightsaber, a green bladed and blue bladed single phase saber with 45 centimeter dull grey hilt as to fit his hands.
At the age of 18 he went on one of his most dangerous missions. An influential Senator was going on trip to Tatooine and would need security because he was receiving death threats from a Hutt. Terek and his master traveled there, and when they arrived followed the Senator to the home he was staying at. That night as they were sleeping they heard glass exploding and screams. They ran into the Senators room where they were confronted with two Wookie hit men. One charged them knocking Terek’s master against the wall and throwing Terek through the broken window. Terek landed on back some ten feet below, outside the window. He force jumped back up, his lightsabers now out. His master was still on the floor against the wall, out cold. The Wookies and Senator were nowhere to be seen. He heard noises down the hall and followed them. Up ahead were the Wookies, Terek crept up from behind until he was only several feet away before jumping up over them and landing in front of them and throwing their weapons with the force, and taking out one of his lightsabers. Terek told them to surrender but the Wookies launched themselves at him. He managed to cut down one of them, but the other got to him before he could swivel towards it. His lightsaber went flying and the Wookie smashed Terek’s head against the wall and picked up a blaster. Terek short of breath managed to force push him away. But the Wookie with blaster in hand shot him once in the chest. Terek flew against the wall and the Wookie advanced, Terek was unable to move, he was struggling and in too much pain. Suddenly his master jumped in between him and the Wookie, cutting it down. Republic forces came and secured the Senator and rushed Terek away to a medical facility. He barely survived what if he had been a non-Jedi would have killed him. It took him several months but he recovered and went on another mission with his master.
They were to go visit a wealthy bounty hunter who had kidnapped a Senator’s son. They arrived at his lair which was filled with beautiful women, animals, and every pleasure and expense a person could imagine. They arrived and headed directly for the bounty hunter easily disposing of several of his cronies along the way. When they came before him he scrambled up and headed straight for the hostage, but Terek’s master used the force to shut the door leading to the hostage and pulled out her lightsaber to deflect shots fired at her by the bounty hunter. But from behind her a giant Nexu was let free of his bonds and leaped towards her, Terek engaged with the bounty hunters cronies realized too late and the Jedi Master was brought down by the Nexu. Terek in a moment of anger killed the cronies. He then advanced on the Nexu which launched itself at him, while the bounty hunter attempted to open the door to the hostage. Terek wasn’t prepared and the giant creature slammed into him, one of its fangs burying itself in his shoulder. He screamed in pain and decapitated the creature with one of his lightsabers. The bounty hunter turned and fired on him, he barely managed to reflect the shots, and with his last ounces of strength Jumped towards the bounty hunter, reflecting more shots and striking him down. He managed to cut open the door and the hostage supported him as they made their way out to his master’s ship.
Terek was hospitalized for months, he required many surgeries from his wound which had made a hole the size of a fist in his shoulder. This gave him a long time to meditate and reflect on his His master’s death, while it saddened him gave him the focus to expand his knowledge of the force and he truly began to fulfill his potential. He finally began to master the force, but it came at a price triggering visions of the death of his father and surrogate father, after his months of training, surgery, and rehabilitation he emerged for the better, having learned of his past and reconciled his master’s death. He had completed his trial of spirit and of the flesh.
After his masters death he went on another important mission as a padawan. It didn't start as a mission until he was mugged in an alley on Coruscant. His mugger he realized after a vision was the Dug who had killed his father. He proceeded to hunt it down and restrain himself from killing it, proving his dedication to the force and completing his trial of spirit.
His final important mission as padawan, happened completely by accident, he was on Tatooine with another padawan, on a completely unrelated mission.
They were tracking a corrupt government official who had fled justice and came to Tatooine. They tracked him across the desert until they caught him, twenty miles from Mos Eisley. They had cornered him when he pulled out a lightsaber. The padawans were shocked and not ready to battle a dark Jedi, but had no choice. They attacked and the other padawan aggressively attacked the dark Jedi who was not particularly skilled but still a dangerous opponent for a padawan. The other padawan over committed during an attack and was cut down by the dark Jedi. This was Terek’s chance and he moved forward both lightsabers out. They fought and were equal fighters until Terek smashed his lightsabers down on the dark Jedi’s and Terek moved forward so they were inches away from each other. Then he used his two bottom arms to grab the lightsaber of the dark Jedi and turn it on him. He subued him and called for help. Terek had completed his trial of skill and was ready to become a Jedi Knight. He was recently knighted and is now serving as a Jedi Knight.

RP Sample:
Terek was making his way through the crowded streets of the Coruscant Entertainment District. He was buffeted back and forth with the flow the crowd. Travelers from all parts of the galaxy, vendors on the side of the street showed off their wares. Giant neon signs advertised exotic Twi lek dancers, and Balosar drug dealers sold their stashes of Death Sticks.
Attempting to get away from the madness Terek headed for an alley amidst the bright buildings. It was abandoned and filled with discarded food, drugs, and scrap metal. As he picked his way through the mess he was struck with a blow so great it threw him five feet back against the opposite wall. He hit the wall and crumpled his robes over his head. He peeked out from under his robes and saw a Dug making his way through the piles of trash towards him.
Suddenly he flashed back remembering a room with an Besalisk man and Dug shoving each other back and forth and screaming, the Dug pulled down the Besalisk and pulling him apart by the limbs, suddenly the Dug’s face came into focus it was the same one which was attacking him in the alley, the same one that had killed his father.
Terek gasped, quickly coming back to reality as the Dug bent down and reached for his lightsabers. Quickly Terek went into action whipping out one of his lightsabers and forcing the Dug off of him, it scampered down the alleyway, but Terek would not let him away so easily. He began sprinting after the gangster as it merged with the crowd. Terek put away his lightsaber and joined the crowd. Behind him he heard screams as several people fell and a Dug scampered through continuing to knock down pedestrians. Terek ran after him, but then he heard the smashing of glass as the Dug went into a closed dance club. Terek followed him into a dark foyer. He looked and could not see anything and began to stumble. But then he remembered his training and focused. He drew his lightsabers, the bright blue and green beams cutting through the darkness. Suddenly behind him he sensed motion and turned just in time to slice off the left foreleg of the Dug. It screamed in pain as it fell, landing with a thump on it's head.
Anger coursed through Terek’s body as he raised his sabers ready to make the final blow. Then in front of his eyes his master’s face appeared and he remembered. He remembered all of those years of training, she taught him to act in self defense and the defense of others, not in revenge. As years of memories passed before his eyes he lowered his lightsabers and restrained the Dug. He proceeded to carry the Dug to a security officer to take away.
This was a first true test of his restraint and devotion to the force. Terek had proven he could trust himself and his power and had become the better for it, he knew that justice had been done, and that he had been able to act without motives of revenge. Terek retired to his quarters and slept through the night contently, knowing he had completed his trial of spirit.
