Aizahk Ah'Riz

[The Prophet]

Padawan: Aizahk Ah'Riz









APPEARANCE​

Aizahk is a young human male in his early-twenties, sporting a light chocolate skin tone and pitch dark hair; he is generally ectomorphic in body-shape, tall and lean, with well toned musculature, broad shoulders and long, powerful limbs. He is rather handsome looking, though his features lean almost towards being prettier. Because of this he tends to grow his facial hair, which he generally keeps well groomed, though doesn't mind letting it grow out into a full beard. The dense, curly hair atop his head is usually cut short, slightly taller on top, with intricate patterns cut into the sides.

Hailing from a family of distinguished warriors, Aizahk's attire tends to lean towards a more military look. He most often wears a dark maroon military jacket, with gold trim and a high rigid collar; he wears a pair of dark trousers along with this. Around his waist he wears a thick belt that is slightly elasticated, allowing him to both house his lightsaber safely and remove them quickly.

PERSONALITY​

The first thing one would notice about Aizahk would be his love for battle, swordplay specifically. He is rarely found without a weapon and is almost always raring for a duel. On a similar note, he takes great pleasure in forging rivalries with other duelists. Malicious or otherwise, he is not particularly concerned with how these rivalries start and is happy to test his opponents as often as possible.

Aizahk is often described as calm, cool and collected. He is a very chilled individual ordinarily, a man that values his personal time and tends to get lost in his own thoughts often. Though he is quite independent and appreciates time alone, that's not to say that he isn't a social creature. Whilst he is willing to socialize with others, he much prefers to keep to a small group of close friends rather than associate with a plethora of acquaintances.

He is very loyal to those he considers family and has zero tolerance for those that betray his trust or betray those close to him, regardless of his relationship with them. He tries to promote a sense of brotherhood and kinship amongst his friends and allies, naturally leading others to be as loyal to him as he is to them. He tends to be a very good judge of character and is very honest, often to the point that people, at least those who don't know his personality, might think him cruel. He is a good leader and makes an effort to treat everyone fairly, but is prone to punishing those who wrong him harshly.

He is all about constant refinement, physically and mentally. He always strives to increase his abilities, training as much as possible and even choosing long meditation sessions over sleep. He often finds himself drawn to stronger groups of individuals that he can learn from, challenging them often to absorb more skills and techniques. This has led to him gaining the respect of some of his senior peers who recognize his drive to become a better martial artist. He is highly critical of his own technique and can sometimes punish himself and sometimes others too hard when it comes to mistakes, though he is well meaning at heart. Aizahk is highly competitive and despises losing. He especially hates losing when it is due to his own error and not because his opponent was necessarily more skilled.

Aizahk has a serious love for battle and lives for the rush of sword duels. He looks for any opportunity to put his skill to the test and can even border on cruel when dueling a weaker opponent that can't keep up, dragging the fight out as though they will somehow become a better opponent for him. This love for battle can sometimes extend to verbal bouts, which has oftentimes gotten him into issues with his elders.

A very shrewd judge of character. When judging people, Aizahk values honesty to the point that sometimes he hurts other peoples feelings and generally doesn't care about doing so, if he feels he was justified. This can lead those that don't know him to think he's cruel at times.

He has strong analytical skill and is well read, choosing a logical approach to his endeavors. He is able to keep a cool head throughout even the most stressful situations and is accustomed to the great violence that is often associated with battle. He has a strong sense of justice and cannot stand for what he perceives as injustice. Whilst he does have this strong sense of justice and he is generally fair, sometimes his means to achieve that justice can be questionable at best.

He enjoys food, eating out often and has quite the sweet tooth. He often jokes that he is easily bribed with sweet confectionery and can often be found tucking into some sort of sweet treat during his spare time.

Origins (This is a short placeholder and is just a skeleton)
Aizahk was born into a relatively normal family, though they were known back on his own planet to be descended from a powerful warrior culture. Because of this, his family were still sure to pass on their military traditions to him and then some.

Identified as a force sensitive from a very young age, Aizahk wasn't given a conventional schooling and was instead sent to an academy for young force sensitives. Although all students were taught to utilize most basic aspects of the force, Aizahk's main affinity appeared to be for force augmentation; his other applications were somewhat lacking.

Becoming highly renowned as a powerful duelist at the age of eighteen, Aizahk ended up becoming the youngest ever of his kind, serving in the personal guard of his sovereign for three years. It was during this time that he would find out about his masters dealings with the Sith. Although he never found out the true extent of these dealings, it was through them that he would be recruited into the Jedi order.

Eventually the nefarious activity that his master was getting up to had caught up with him and a large clash between Sith and Jedi ensued on his ship. Aizahk stood out, dueling both Sith and Jedi to standstills. However, in the chaos of the battle he was knocked unconscious in a bombardment. Seeing potential in him, a few Jedi Knights saved him from the wreckage and took them back to their ship. They offered to introduce him to the order, where Aizahk could learn new techniques and refine his current skills. Of course, he jumped at the opportunity.

Skills and Talents

​

STRENGTH: Aizahk's strength is rather good, having participated in strength training since he was a boy. He is able to generate large bursts of strength when he needs to, though this is limited by his relatively average endurance.
DEXTERITY: A deadly fencer, known for being able to go from a relaxed pace to an abrupt blitz of attacks, Aizahk's speed and dexterity are monstrous and something he is known for. His hand-eye coordination is deadly fast and he is able to perform a plethora of acrobatic maneuvers.
CONSTITUTION: Aizahk is a sprinter, able to unleash terrifying bursts of speed at the cost of vast amounts of energy. His body has adapted to this, providing him with a great deal of power in short bursts but less so across extended periods of time. Aizahk has learnt to compensate for this by playing a game of control, only striking out in a calculated and controlled manner. His endurance isn't much more than average.
INTELLIGENCE: Aizahk's parents were quite strict, ensuring that he was well educated from the moment he was born. Because of this he absorbs information quite quickly and tends to be able to process situations quickly, with a logical approach. A debater, he is keen to verbally duel with those that challenge his mental prowess. He has a good general knowledge and a healthy thirst for more, often pursuing intellectual endeavors outside of his training.
WISDOM: Aizahk values knowledge highly and has taken in as much as he could throughout his life. Although he can appear rather lax and carefree on the surface, his closer allies know the value of his serious insight.
CHARISMA: From his attractive features to his relaxed demeanor and dulcet tone of voice, Aizahk carries an air that tends to relax those he meets in casual conversation. Because of this, he is more than able to make others feel more comfortable than some probably should.

Skills

Ambidextrous: Aizahk is able to use both hands at almost the same level of dexterity. This allows him to "dual-wield" or switch hands/stances effectively in a duel. However, his right hand is still a little more dominant when it comes to his swordplay and he can only write with his left hand.

Battlewise: Aizahk has always trained himself hard since he was a boy and his put his skills to the test versus a highly diverse range of opponents, during both his time at the academy and his time as a personal guard. This has given him a great deal of strong combat experience. His eyes are highly attuned to combat movements and he is able to analyse his situation and plan accordingly on the fly, if his muscle-memory doesn't provide him with an answer.

Blademaster: Aizahk's has trained in the usage of the sword from the moment he could hold one. His light-saber skills are incredible and he was easily one of the best duelists of his academy. He has successfully out-fenced experienced Jedi to such an extent that, despite his relatively weak application of the force outside of augmenting the body, they were physically unable to break focus lest they fall prey to his superior swordsmanship.

Talent for Force Augmentation: Aizahk is a prodigy in the use of force augmentation and was a born user. This means that he is highly attuned to force abilities that enhance the limitations of his body or objects connected to his body. However, this great strength has led him to neglect many other applications of the force.

Lightsaber Forms
Currently Aizahk utilizes a style unique to himself. He prefers to begin by scoping out his opponent, focusing on controlling and parrying his opponents attacks to start with. It is at this point that he begins to analyze his opponents fighting style and attempt to pinpoint weaknesses. Once he sees an opportunity, his seemingly defensive techniques will make a sudden switch to a highly aggressive flurry of attacks, though they can be seemingly erratic and reckless in nature, they are highly calculated. Either he will attempt to blitz his opponent like this, using a sudden overwhelming degree of force or he will use another method. This second method involves a similar approach to before, however instead of increasing his speed suddenly, he does so by gradully increasing the intensity of the duel. On the defense, his personal style has some loose similarities to Makashi or Soresu though on the offense, Ataru and even Vaapad come to mind; Aizahk's love for battle often brings him quite close to the dark side of the force and he is still a new addition to the order, so his formal training in actual jedi technique is minimal.

Force Abilities

Force Jump - Aizahk's force jump is powerful, allowing him to propel himself at great speeds or scale tall structures with ease. 7/10
Force Body - Although unaware of the true potential of such a technique, Aizahk is able to use this to a decent extent, allowing him to push through points where good management of his energy won't be enough. 4/10
Force speed - Already fast as it was, Aizahk is able to use this technique to vastly increase his natural agility. 9/10
Telekinesis - Aizahk's use of telekinesis isn't particularly strong. The only way in which he is truly proficient in telekinesis would be the manipulation of smaller objects with a solid degree of dexterity. 4/10
Force Resistance - Aizahk has a good amount of resistance to force techniques. He is able to push through and escape force pushes or pulls, should his speed fail him. This is limited to relatively mid-level users of these applications though, he will still be affected by higher level force users.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equipment​

Grievous - A saber that once belonged to Aizahk's grandfather, named after a famed jedi hunter from the clone wars. The hilt is a dark red colour, with gold plating and patterns etched all over it; the hilt is slightly longer, accommodating the use of either both hands or just one. A rare golden crystal forms its blade, that pulsates with electrical energy.

Gold Shoto - A shoto with a blade matching that of Grievous. Zahk generally conceals it in his sleeve, to surprise opponents later on in a duel.
