10/10

CONSTITUTION:
As all Kel Dors, Koru has lesser constitution when compared to other races, but still, he is healthy and suffers from no diseases.
4.7/10

INTELLIGENCE:
Arca's picked up every single piece of knowledge, about technology and science he could, but still he is no match compared to a mechanic, scientist, or anything else which fits in this category.He knows more then a average citizen.
6.5/10

He learned many things and knows how to fight the enemy - on psychologic area, and also physologic, but Kuro also learned much more, for example tales and lores of other species.
7.8/10

Arca's doesn't lack Charisma, he is just average in this area - as charismatic as the average citizen of Coruscant.

LIGHTSABER FORMS:
Jar'kai (A subform of the fourth, and sixth Form of lightsaber Combat, Ataru and Niman)
Koru also mastered Kel'dor Martial Art, but this is no use for combat with a lightsaber.This is however, because this "Art" is fought with a two handed stick.
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
His agility(& speed), wisdom, and intelligence are his strengths, while he as even as many weaknesses.
So are these (weaknesses) his lack of strength, the "average" charisma - and his need to breath through a antiox breath-mask.

Arca allways wears his antiox breath mask (due the fact he would die if he would take it off in an atmossphere, different to the one of Dorin - filled with the special unique gas, nicknamed "dorin gas" - also he could not be understand, like every Kel Dor he would need to shout to talk at a normal frequence) gray gloves, that show the finger ends - gray boots, made out of sturdy leather - a brown pair of pants - a leather belt with two hilts for his lightsabers - a kind of light-brown robe, worn over a pullover, along with a hooded cloak in the same colour. (all to be seen in detail at the picture)

WEAPONS:
He posesses 2 lightsabers, with one orange blade (right hilt - upper picture ) and one with a bright golden one (left hilt - lower Picture).

SHIP:
none
PETS:
none
PERSONALITY:
Koru is strong minded, willing to suceed his task, but often being quiet amongst other people in a great number, sinking into the mass to be unnoticed.Never seeking combat, he wants to avoid if possible and ensure peace.How ever, even with his fighting skills - he is not arrogant.

If Koru is not to be found outside his quarters, he meditates - which makes up a massive amount of his day - when not training with his master and learning new force techniques, or similiar things.He engages other people friendly, and never rejects the request of a stranger in need.
HISTORY:
Arca's life began on Dorin, in the capital City of Dor'shan.Soon after his parents discovered that his Iris was silver, he was eventually brought to the Baran Do Sages, to be trained under them.He was trained in the martial arts, wielding a simple wooden staff instead of later, two lightsabers.
When he reached the age of 16 he realised that his brethren of the temple, could'nt teach him anything else, then he did not allready knew.

Nearly the end of the orbital period, on the 408 day - a jedi (which was a rare sight - especially on Dorin because the planet is placed between two black holes) appeared in the city.Koru took his chance, talking with the jedi about beeing a part of his "order".The old man explained it to him, and Arca's was sure, that the Jedi-Order was trying to ensure peace everywhere, a noble order which he wanted to be part of.After a long conversation, in which he tried to convince him - but he failed.
Hours after (even on Dorin existed "criminals"), he saw an angry Kel Dor, brawling another... and Koru ran towards them, holding the angry one away from the defenseless one.His words, were his weapon - and he talked sense into the aggresive sentient.

The Jedi witnessed this noble act, and thought about the words of Arca's.
"You still want to join the order?" the human offworlder asked through his breath mask.
"Yes - but you allready said, im too old, why are you asking me?" he answered directly.
"I saw what you did - you defeated that Kel Dor with words, not with brawling... also you are force sensitive..."
"What is your point?... and what is your name?" he asked back.
"Ah im sorry for not telling you who i am, my name is Joran Kovacs... and i would take you as my padawan, and bring you to the order, even if i have to convince the whole Council."
"Hm, im Koru Arca..." he said back even though there was no visible facial expression, he smiled.
As it was going on, they both travelled offworld, contacting the council - which seemed to have no problem with letting Koru join the Order.(When this happened, he was 20 years old)

Years later, his old master had allready died - in this time he was sad - however, he thought about all this, and the death of his old friend and master, and concentrated on the "here and now"

Training under the Baran Do Sages:

"Upper... lower, middle ... upper!Ah, my child, you seem to know this technique allready?" asked the old, and wise Kru, the young apprentice Arca.
"Yes, Master Kru." he answered proudly.
"Good, then you should have no problem, trying your skills against one of the older apprentices... Nolo, come in!" he called.
A wooden door opened, sliding to the left of its opener.It was a tall Kel Dor, 3 years older then the apprentice Koru Arca, with a crimson red skin.
"You shall beginn." Kru said, stepping back to the wall, watching as the young ones trained their skills in a fight - where no one was a winner, the goal of Baran Do was to achieve peace, and not war - likely to be seen in their visions, preventing war in their own race.

Nolo attacked Koru calm, using his wooden staff, smashing it at the one of Arca, who took a defensive position.Soon, he was in a corner, but then rolled away, hitting him from behind as quick as possible - after Nolo turned around, he received quick beatings with the wooden staff.
"Enough!" he shouted when Nolo looked angrily, preparing to smash his staff brutish against Koru's head.Aggressive he looked to the master, while the young Arca took some steps back, so he may look at both - the master, and the crimson red Kel Dor.
"You both achieved what i wanted, but Nolo - do not, and i repeat it all, do not give yourself to the fight, our ways seek peace.To avoid violence, you need to understand it, but not use it if not necessary." Kru explained "And you Koru, you attacked him from behind, using his weaknesses against him.As for you the same - our ways are to avoid violence, and because of that we need to understand it.I saw both of you thought it was ment to be a fight.It was merely a training... you both - dismiss now."
Both of them, bowed before the Master - and then left the room.

The next years were made out of hard training - meditating and finding inner peace.At this time, Koru was a 15 Years old, was even friend with the crimson Kel Dor Nolo, which turned out to be brutish, but a good friend.
Both were at Master Kru's funeral, a good teacher and friendly man - and Koru, meditated in the rain, at the grave of his, now dead, combat instructor to remember him aslong as he live, which he swore on his life.

You have a lot of small gramatical errors, when you have a few minutes you may want to fix them.

Some examles are...
Under rank put Arca is a padawan
Under dominate hand put Ambidextrous. (it means skilled in using both hands.)
Under Hair replace so don't with can't and at with on.
(If you need help pointing out and fixing grammar errors, PM i will be glad to help.)
If you want and have time it may be a good idea to expand your history were it talks about the training with those sages.

Everything else is fine.

Haven't looked at it yet, but without even reading it, you might want to ask for "(ian)" to be cut. Kel Dor's fine. Better yet, I'd have the title solely as Koru Arca. Ask an Admin to change that for you, if you wish. =)

I like Koru Arca. My main comment is that, at different points in the profile, he has been referred to as Koru, Arca and Arca's (note that 's is correct for the start of the history and possibly alright in intelligence). This confuses me as to which is his individual name and which is his family name.

Make sure to add in the role-plays he ends up in, I want to see (read) what happens with him.

Thanks for the criticism - i surely will add what happens, if i finally find a master for this guy :D
His invidiual name still remains Koru, and his family name is Arca.

Thank you for clearing that up. One thing I forgot to mention is that the profile link in your signature is for the second post in this thread, not the first.
