P e r s o n a l i t y:
● Turan Uruk is a patient plant with no real equal in the ability to wait. The matters of rushing and importance tend to fade when you have a millenia under your belt. A certain level of compassion and kindness for other sentients has come alongside his patience because of their general short lived nature. His attuned nature to the force has helped that along. He loves to teach as well, learning things and sharing his knowledge has become a passion that dictated his existence.

In battle Turan is known for being a fierce warrior, a being to be reckoned with if pushed. Unfortunately his compassion for life can interfere with his battles. His tree like nature shows in the strength he carries into battle, his immovable will forces him to push on throughout combat. He detests violence in most forms, only performing it at the utmost need.

S a b e r - F o r m:

● Sokan always dictating his maneuvers in combat. The old jedi is a masterful manipulator of maneuvers and opponents.

C u s t o m - J e d i - P o w e r s:
● True Overgrowth - This is a very basic ability in regards to comprehension. Turan turns the force ability known as plant surge inward on his roots causing a violent growth spurt. Unlike the usual use of Plant surge which causes the life in the area to grow at an alarming rate and gave the user minor control over the plant life, Turan has control over his roots more articulately and can control each one simultaneously as they grow. The downside is that he must sever himself from his expanded roots once the technique is complete, the overgrowth of roots is almost tumor like and must be cut off before he can regain normal mobility.

● Born near the end of the New Sith Wars Turan came into the world as an exceptionally bright sapling amongst his people. The Neti people are all force sensitive but it didn't take long for his elders to see he was a brighter individual. He questioned everything that existed and was never satisfied until he got solid answers. Before he was even two decades old he was in the jedi academy and brightly pursuing his training.

Turan spent nearly six full decades as a padawan, not out of necessity though. Turan liked the atmosphere of learning and understanding under a Master. Although not quite fully matured, he was intellectually ready though, Turan passed his tests and became a Jedi knight. Pursuing the great mysteries of the galaxies, thanks to his long lived nature he didn't have to rush through things. He is accredited with many findings thanks to this ability, when you can sit for years at a time and not move even the most secretive things will reveal themselves.

After another century spent learning how things worked in the universe Turan turned his attention to the individuals who populated the universe. Being nearly two centuries old he had seen friends age and die and new ones born and grown and withered once again. It was a sad thing for Turan who loved life and existence so much. Turning his attention to politics, psychology, and sociology Turan became a top notch consular. Although not able to solve every problem or dispute in the universe he did his best to help. Turan watched as the ages passed him by.

Made a Jedi Master before his four hundredth year of existence, he didn't use the term birthday because it didn't really fit for plants. Master Turan Uruk was not a very well known master, but he was highly respected amongst those who did know him. He trained twelve padawans in this age, competent and skilled individuals. Only one fell to the darkside, Turan took it upon himself to rectify this problem. Turan became extremely depressed after this event, it was the first time in his 500 years that he had been forced to take anothers life and it was devestating.

Just after 296 BBY Turan disappears from the jedi order, only informing a few of his fellow Masters where he is going. Turan returned to the birthplace of his people to spend time trying to truly understand what could drive one to the darkside. During this time Turan discovered many answers to life and existence but never could one so optimistic or pure of mind find any true reasoning for turning to the darkside. To reach these thoughts Turan entered a Hibernation trance in the wilderness of Myrkr and stayed this way for over two centuries. He awoke once in 19 BBY when he felt pain like no other, the great jedi purge began and he felt the force actually ripple in the universe. Not knowing what to do he pushed himself back to sleep, not knowing of anyway he could be of help.

Turan's true awakening would not come until 27 ABY, this would be pushed along greatly by the passing of Anakin Solo. Although having never met and no real connection it was the fading of such a strong presence in the force so near to him that finnaly startled Turan out of his slumber and forced him awake. It would be four decades before he rejoined the Jedi order, but he was awake at last.

Returning to the order Turan learned of what had passed in the last three centuries, feeling terrible for his lack of service to the Jedi order Turan turned all of his knowledge and experience towards helping rebuild the order. Turan did not want to take on great responsibilities do to his past failures, so he mainly just acted as an archive for many years amongst the order passing on his knowledge and helping padawans understand the force.

Turan did not take the title of Grandmaster willingly. When the previous Grandmaster, Reave, left abruptly there was confusion amongst the members of the order. What they needed was some one who was steady and could set their roots deep in a foundation that would not shift or waver. Turan, not forgetting his past transgressions, accepted the role and does everything within his power to help the Jedi continue to grow in a healthy way. Having seen the faults of entire periods of time unfold he is a wise and cautious leader.

Sirless Akroba, a name known very well about the galaxy. An expert politician with years of experience under his belt he leads the Senate with a very intuitive nature. Don't try to fool him or step around him, his eyes and ears permeate everything. Some people rumor that he has his hand in every pot in the galaxy just so he can know what is going on in every circle. Truth be told though, he has the cleanest record there is. Too clean in fact.

He will do everything within his power to constantly support, the republic. He is as strong willed as any man could ever hope to be, he doesn't back down from threats or extortion. If you want to tangle with him you might want to come prepared. He might not be a physical warrior but when it comes to moving pieces around a board you couldn't find a better man.

All of this work comes with a price though, as all things do in the galaxy. He expects a certain standard of living and amenities, the highest form of luxury. So what if he cut a one percent tax in on spice to purchase his new home on Zeltros near the entertainment sector. He overlooks a small mining operation that violates safety ordinances in a back water area of space, who cares? the seven miners who passed away don't and no one is the wiser that it was those individuals who allowed him to take a nice holiday aboard a luxury liner.






Gaia Name: The man who lives in the clouds
Name: Cassus Marr
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Race: Mandalorian
Height: 6'2
Weight: 235
Profession: Bodyguard
Alignment: Whoever doesn't want to get killed more.
Faction: (Leave this Blank for Now)
Personality: Strong and Determined, he has many aspects that lead people to be able to rely on him. Everything about his actions and personality breath charisma, even when he is just joking around. When you give Cassus a job it gets done, or he dies. No questions asked. On another note he is actually a very friendly guy when you don't have a blaster pointed at him, he might still buy you a drink if it is a small blaster.
Weapon(s): Twin Bryar pistols at his hips, N'Gant-Zarvel 9118 carbine slung shoulder wise, and the usual variety of hidden weapons in the shock trooper armor. I.E - Flame throwers, wrist blades, dart shooters, grappling wires, flame throwers, and small wrist mounted rocket launchers.
Accessories:
Custom Mandalorian Shock armor

The Helmet - Outfitted with a wide array of sensors and features. The most notable is a remote link with his ships database. Allowing him to search for a wide range of information at any given time, depending on what the situation asks for.

Synthesizer - All air that comes into the helmet is run through a purifier to eliminate the need for toxin scans. If something that is specifically designed to go through a purifier is detected the helmet seals itself and runs to a small side tank. It has two hours of air within so he can get to a safe location.

Tactical HUD - This display keeps track of everything going on around him while quickly analyzing his targets and giving him situation updates. It tracks movements and shows progressive figures, it can also monitor targets and give the best zones to shoot for and how far to lead his targets. It is a very sophisticated system and is all run by an AI.

Armor - Just like his ancestors Cassus' armor is made of Beskar, or Mandalorian Iron. The wearer was protected from the majority of all blaster fire. Armor made of actual Mandalorian iron, which could also deflect blaster bolts, made it lightsaber-resistant. This armor has an installed shock webbing to prevent people from getting too close, it has a very simple voice command and once ignited it will run for twenty minutes.

Belt - The interesting belt buckle that looks like a communications device is actually a personal energy shield. It is an especially powerful one, and should be considering what he payed for it. It can stop nearly any attack even those delivered from a lightsaber, but it can only take a few hits before it fails. Also while it is in use he can not attack outward.

Pouches - Inside his belt pouches are C14 stun grenades, g20 glop grenades, 2 pairs of LSS 1000 Automatic Stun Cuffs,and a small personal Sonic Dampener.

Boot - Inside the left boot is an extendable blade, it is pressure sensitive and used usually in floor scuffles, the pressure sensor is on the back of his heel so when he slaps the foot against something the three inch blade extend from the bottom of the boot.


Transportation: Mandalorian cruiser, modified for singular use.
Home World: Mandalore





Big Boom - Contrary to poular belief Cassus does not wear a jetpack, it is a warhead with a remote arming system. Often times he will leave it lying around so that someone might take it for his gear pack and try and seperate him from it. One push of a button on his forearm pad and it explodes. Incinerating every thing within five meters, this is usually a quick end to a pesky problem.

Echani Martial Arts - As a Mandalorian it was mandatory that he learn unarmed combat, and Echani was the most loved of his fathers. They even went so far is to develop the style past it's deadly nature and teach how to fight armed opponents. There were four forums specifically about anti lightsaber battle. Needless to say it is a sticky situation when Cassus raises his fists and expects a brawl.

I am Mandalore. My name is Cassus Marr, son of General Tauris Marr. Do not perceive me as the spoiled child of nobility though, in the eyes of my culture we are all the same. The mightiest general is held to the exact same standard as a beggar, everyone obeys the laws and everyone learns their customs. I am a Warrior just like my father before me and his father before him.

At the age of 3 I entered my formal training and began my long tedious journey towards becoming a man. I learned to fight, on so many different levels it is uncomprehendable unless you have stood in my shows. I learned to fight with my hands, with knives, with swords, with rocks, with gauntlets, with my terrain, and with teammates. This is all you can possibly comprehend of how much I learned in those ten years. At the age of thirteen I became a man and earned my rights, next I earned my armor piece by piece in the Colosseum.

I proved my merit against beasts, against aliens, against even my own people. Nothing could stop me in that chamber. My skill though? My number one ability during all my training was very simple. Objective combat, give me a goal and I will achieve it. Distinguished service and untold bravery dots my service with minimal remarks of failure. Most of them acceptable, but I have made mistakes before. Some of them costly.

At 21 I left my home to venture out and explore the galaxy, like all other warriors this was a maximum of ten years. In the three years I have been out I have started making a name amongst the high priority clientele. I quickly analyze their standings and routines and can isolate the most likely routes of attack. After that it is simply a matter of eliminating those possibilities and readying for the desperate measures that ensue. What makes me so famous? How about one of my scenarios.

Correlian Senator. Threatened after passing some law, I don't quite care for politics. The group states that the law violates their rights as citizens of Corellia and they will kill the senator if he does not repeal the act. Standing his ground the Senator hires me instead. The basics were easy, I found poisons in his imported foods, caught a death slug that had been slipped into his fish tank, but the coupe de grace came during a senatorial meeting. The assassins were posing as messengers and when they came into the Corellian booth they pulled a thermal detonator at close range. Thinking quickly I grasped hold and leapt from the booth. The fall was tedious, nearly six stories, and I made sure I rode the b*****d face first into the ground. About six feet from the ground the detonator exploded, luckily, and gave enough force to not only slow my decent by reposition me at a better incoming angle. It was quite something to see during the middle of a Galactic Debate,after that debacle I've had some pretty steady business. Mostly people get over cautious and call on someone like me for a non-intentional threat and I get payed to just stand around.
