Bio: Born on the planet of Coruscant, Erfies was left at the steps of the Jedi Temple as an infant along with his brother Ibapo. The Jedi took them both in and tested them, to discover that there midiclorian count was amazingly high, so they was to become younglings. For 3 years of there lives, they were weaned by the Jedi nurses, both were never really any trouble and were just like any other infants. At the age of 5, they were finally put into separate clans, Erfies in the Katarn youngling clan and Ibapo in the Hawkbat Clan to start training. The two never really saw each other afterwards.
Erfies was an exceptional youngling, learning fairly quickly the Art of the Saber and found it easy to use the Force in basic tasks. When he became around the age of 10, he was chosen to be the Padawan of a Jedi Master by the name of Asodek, a Transdoshan. Skilled in Makashi, Asodek trained Erfies in his style as well, preferring Makashi's fencing style and elegance over some of the other more common styles. The Transdoshan also taught the young Padawan to use the Force to augment his own physical being, giving him more stamina or agility when he needed it most. Along with Body enhancement techniques, Erfies was taught in the Senses and Telekintic powers of the Force. He excelled in his chosen fields of study as he had in his training as a Padawan which brought satisfaction to the old lizard.
When Erfies was 22, Asodek and him were sent on a diplomatic mission to Onderon to solve a political issue that had risen dealing with the election of a king that some claimed cheated his way into the position. When the two arrived on the planet, Asodek gave Erfies the permission to take a tour of the city and to exercise his senses with the Force in such a largely populated area. The Padawan did so, walking around and taking in the sights when he saw a woman being hassled by a pair of thugs in an alley. Erfies came to her rescue, warding off the men and was instantly smitten by her. She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen and asked for her name, which was Mariel. Mariel was the daughter of a middle class man who owned a shop nearby and the women, interested in the Jedi as well as he was she, offered to take him on a tour of the city.
The pair spent a large portion of the day with one another, taking in the sights of Onderon as Mariel explained some of the historical value of some of the buildings but really the pair was mainly interested in one another. Sadly, Asodek had called Erfies on his comm to meet him at the square of the city and since Jedi were forbidden to love, he knew he couldn't stay with Mariel. Before the two departed, Mariel quickly kissed him and darted off into the crowd, leaving a stunned Erfies alone.
Asodek and Erfies met up and left the planet, the political issue resolved and reported back to the Temple. The young Padawan, however, his emotions in flux was hardly able to keep himself on task within the Temple and on his studies. He had to see Mariel again and realized that the only way he could leave the Temple without notice was to pass his Trials as a Padawan. For the next several years, he trained harder then he ever had before and finally, Asodek approached him and told him the time of his Trials was close.
He was 23 when the trials began, Erfies passed his Trial of Skill when he created his own lightsaber, then dueled his Master in front of several other Jedi, nearly defeating the old lizard but in the end failed. However, he showed extremely impressive display of Force powers and the Makashi lightsaber style.
Next was the Trial of Flesh, Erfies attempted to find his brother Ibapo, whom had been lost on a mission with his master on Korriban. After several days of searching, he found no trace of either of the Jedi and grimly accepted the fact he had lost the only family he had ever had.
The Trial of Courage took place on the planet of Tatooine, when he was sent to quell a raiding party of Tusken raiders that attack several innocents in their own homes. While he was questioning a family in their home, the Tuskens ambushed the farm. He bravely defended the family and removed the Tuskens as a threat.
Finally, the Trial of Spirit was all that was left. Erfies put himself in his chamber in the Temple and sat there for three days straight under the supervision of his master. In deep meditation, the Jedi saw a strange vision of the future, of a young man being tortured by someone close to him and eventually becoming corrupted. After shakily explaining to his master what had transpired, Asodek smiled and said that he had passed the Trial of Spirit.
The next day, he was knighted at the age of 26 and given the title of Jedi Guardian. Erfies proudly accepted the title and he immediately left the Jedi Temple to traverse the galaxy, but first stopping on Onderon. After several days of searching for Mariel, whom he dearly missed and had little contact with over the years, he discovered that her father had been forced to sell her as a slave to a Crime Lord that was currently on the moon of Dxun, near Onderon. Quickly, Erfies went to Dxun and discovered the Crime Lords location, asking for the release of Mariel from slavery. The crime lord only laughed, claiming that if he gave him a million credits, he'd let the girl go.
His emotions flaired and he struck down the Crime Lord, releasing Mariel and taking her off planet. The women, tired and beaten, was overjoyed to see that Erfies had never given up his feelings for her, as she did him. The two returned to Onderon and over the course of several years, he frequently visited her between missions. When Mariel spoke of marriage though, Erfies sadly said he couldn't, for Jedi were forbidden to marry, or to love for that matter, but the Jedi Knight realized all he wanted to do was live his life with the women he loved.
Returning to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant for the last time, he approached the Council and declared he was leaving the Jedi Order. Presenting his lightsaber, he bowed respectfully before the Masters and gave them his blade. Without regret, he left Coruscant and went back to Onderon, Mariel and him marrying in the next three days. The couple decided to relocate to the planet of Tatooine, where they could live out the rest of there lives in peace and love.
When Erfies was 30, the pair had a child, naming him Grawn after Mariel's great grandfather and they lived for two years in relative peace, till Mariel was slain in a sudden Tusken raid. Battling depression, Erfies raised his boy the best to his ability, evening training his son in the way of the Jedi to some degree and over the course of a few years, both had grown very close with one another.
Until his long thought lost brother Ibapo appeared, demanding the boy. Erfies tried to fend off the pair of Dark Jedi that had come but he had only managed to dispatch one of them before Ibapo used a Dark side technique to cripple his body. Taunting him, Ibapo told Erfies he would take the boy to be trained as a Dark Jedi and he would leave his brother to die alone, powerless to stop him.
Over the course of several days, Erfies slowly began to regain his body despite the fact he was near starving and had little strength in him. When he was finally able to move, he wept over the loss of his only son and left the home behind, donning a traveling cloak and headed into Mos Eisley to a cantina and for the next 11 years, drifted among different cantinas and became a drunk.
When Erfies turned 43, while sitting his is normal spot in a secluded corner of the Mos Eisley cantina, a vision came to him as he sat near half asleep. It showed an image of a young man, pulsing with the Dark side but his face hidden by shadow. When Erfies came to, he realized the Force had shown this to him for a reason and concluded that his son was still alive.
Steeling his resolve, he left Mos Eisley and took the soonest flight to Coruscant, intent on seeking the assistance of the Jedi.

RP Sample: The howling wind of Tatooine rushed past him, throwing sand everywhere as Erfies walked through the terrain. He was surrounded by his cloak, blocking away any sand that attempted to get anywhere he did want as his boots crunched across the sand. His blue eyes looked out from underneath his brown cloak hood, scanning the landscape for anything amiss. The Jedi Council had sent him here to stop a raiding party of Tusken Raiders that had been attacking farmers in the region and it was his duty to stop them. "Why couldn't it have been on a more comfortable planet? Like Naboo.", he mumbled to himself.
For the next hour, he trekked through the sandy terrain, his mind open to anything sentient around him but there had been nothing. Erfies sighed and stopped, feeling the sandy wind finally stop, he was starting to become slightly annoyed. Suddenly, he realized something was a miss and just as he thought that, the Force whispered to him of danger. A shriek pierced the silence and Erfies turned suddenly, his brown cloak swirling around him as several robed humanoids appeared around him, each wielding wicked looking weapons. "Damn it all!", he growled angerly, but quickly letting the anger fade away. There is no emotion, there is only peace, he thought quickly and drew his lightsaber from his belt.
The Tuskens began to circle him as Erfies ignited his lightsaber, its brilliant green blade slightly startling the Tuskens, but only for a moment as one of them screamed out and the rest rushed at him. Letting the Force flow through him like a river current, he went into a Makashi stance and easily dodged the first weapon swing of the nearest Tusken and stabbed the creature in its abdomen, causing it to fall over in pain as death slowly came to it. Makashi was all about positioning and balance, with elegant strikes and measured swings, Erfies master Asodek, taught him well in the art.
As the Tuskens formed a circle around him and began to close in, he used the Force and jumped high into the air, causing the sand below his feet to explode into the faces of the Tuskens, temporarily blinding them. He landed on the outside of the circle and stabbed the nearest Tusken in the back, quickly retracting his blade from the dead creature and cleaved through another. While Erfies wished he didn't have to kill the Tuskens, he knew there was no other alternative. He killed with no malice, no hate, no emotion at all.
With only 3 Tuskens still alive, they all rallied angerly and rushed towards him, swinging their gaffi sticks wildly. As Erfies did a Makashi salute, a explosion of pain ripped into his back. A shriek from behind him clarified what had happened, apparently a hidden Tusken had stayed out of the fight till the opportunity arose to strike. Good timing.
As Erfies fell to a knee, the four Tuskens started to beat down on him with their gaffi sticks. His cloak tore and began to shred as they hacked away at his back with their metal shafts, Erfies wincing with every hit. As he fell to his knees, he summoned the Force and made a shield at his back, the Tuskens began to beat uselessly against a wall that they couldn't penetrate. Quickly, a ragged breath escaping him, Erfies calmed himself and let the Force surround him in its warm embrace, especially on his wounded back. Slowly, the feeling of trickling blood began to disappear as the wounds began to seal themselves and the pain began to numb.
Erfies, back to fight health, expanded the wall, transforming it into a power Force push that threw the four Tuskens to the ground. The padawan stood up, his lightsaber in hand and waited as the four Tuskens all got up and ran at him. With no emotion, no anger, no nothing, he sidestepped a strike from the first Tusken and beheaded the creature, spinning around quickly to kick its companion that had been behind it and delivered a stab to its abdomen.
With two Tuskens dead, the third began to back away slowly, watching Erfies. The Padawan watched in return and then with his hand, gave it a shooing motion. The Tusken, needing no further instruction, turned and ran off, kicking sand up in the air as it did. Sighing deeply, Erfies turned and began the trek back to Mos Eisley, the pain in his back returning. He winced in pain as he came over a hill and saw the settlement, giving a small smile.
