DEXTERITY: Slightly above average, from time as a Jedi and a bit of Ataru training.
CONSTITUTION: Slightly above average- he is about as healthy as the average person who exercises regularly.

WISDOM: Slight above average- he has moments of insight.
CHARISMA: Below average.

FORCE POWERS:

Force Push/Pull- weak, erratic

SKILLS:

Skilled with lightsaber combat
Roughly blaster proficient.

Not that skilled with the Force


LIGHTSABER/SWORD FORMS:

-

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:

Strengths:

Adapts well- Logan isn’t very organised, except from his training. He is, however, strong at adapting to changing situations, and just making plans as things go and playing along.

Lightsaber combat- he has a talent for lightsaber combat

Unreadable- Logan’s mind is quite well-shielded, and even without the shield, he is hard to read.

Weaknesses:

Impatience- Logan isn’t always the most patient of beings. Even at twenty five.

Airsick- Logan can’t stand space travel. He invariably gets airsick, and is often dependent on pills or his own tolerance of it. Especially entering hyperspace and reversion to realspace, as well as entering planetary atmosphere and leaving it.

Maverick- True to the name he has been dubbed, Logan doesn’t always follow the rules. In fact, the only rule Logan follows is that he breaks rules. And even that rule isn’t a rule he follows because he doesn’t always break rules. Confused? That’s Logan.

Aggressive- Logan enjoys a good fight. His aggressive nature makes him a little hard to interact with. This gives him violent tendencies, and he often finds himself moving dangerously close to the Dark Side. Sometimes, he deliberately picks fights just so he can have a fight.

Jedi Mind Tricks/ Reading emotions/ Telepathy- Logan refuses to do mind tricks, read emotions, or to use any kind of telepathy through the Force. He sees it as manipulation of other’s minds, and he reacts extremely strongly and negatively to the idea of attempting to read other’s minds. He feels strongly that the mind is the last sanctuary of a person.

Allergic to alcohol- Logan is allergic to alcohol. He can drink, but only at the expense of triggering his allergy. He will get red and itchy after he ingests alcohol and if he takes a great amount, it may even result in hives, and swelling. Of course, there are pills for that as well, but even then.

GEAR:

-A hooded cloak, dark blue, thick.
-A short vibroblade, strapped to his thigh.
-A smaller, dirk-sized vibroblade, in his boot.
-Brown boots, slightly scuffed.
-red flight jacket, with dark khakhi-brown pants.



SHIP:

False Dawn, a Scout-class vessel.

A light and fast ship, the False Dawn moves fast. That is what matters to Logan, since he’d rather not prolong his agony in space. With his learnt mechanical skills, he is able to make modifications to her and keep her together.

He’d never admit she is his home, apart from his small apartment unit on Coruscant, and his place back on Corellia.

Specs:

Length: 35m
Width: 15m
Height: 10m

Speed: 1950KPH
Shielding: Basic
Material: Layered durasteel plating
Weaponry: Two laser cannons, mounted on each side of the ship, as well as another gunnery turret (slugs), mounted at the top of the ship.


PETS:

PERSONALITY:

Logan isn’t one who goes by rules and proceedures. He managed to survive in the military for a while, but his insistence on following his own orders first has often put him at odds with other instructions. He has no patience at all for what he sees as stupid and pointless, often ignoring messes of red tape. This can lead him to be brutally blunt, especially with sticklers for proceedure.

He can be intuitively insightful, which seems unlikely, as he comes across as violent and aggressive. He enjoys a good fight, and can be rather short-sighted as he doesn’t care about consequences so much. He is proud, in so much as he doesn’t want to be the one to admit he might have been wrong in walking away to join the Order of the Jedi, and thus has never made a move so far to close the gap between him and his father.

He hates being limited and tied down, and so is afraid of responsibility. He primarily wants freedom to pursue his own ends, and shies away from the idea of commitment or any stable relationship, or even stability. He has, however, a strong sense of duty and loyalty, and so if he has a responsibility, he will fulfill it. However, while he has some flexible morals, including the idea of property and borrowing, he draws the line at hurting or killing innocents.

He also insists on fights being fair (he has a vague sense of honor), with whoever he’s going after having a chance to defend themselves. Often, his targets are criminals of some sort. He doesn’t have very good emotional control, and he has a quick temper. This can make him a bit harsh towards people when angered, or a bit scathing. His main motivation is he wants to be strong. He wants to be the best at what he does, and he will do what it takes (within limits) to reach his goal.

HISTORY:

Logan was a Corellian. His father worked as a pilot but unlike his father, Logan never really took to piloting. The consistently rotating axis of battle in space often unsettled him, or made him feel sick- he proved to be quite susceptible to airsickness. Instead, he went into the military, infantry, as soon as he was able to enlist at eighteen, and he served for about two years in the military, before facing a court martial for beating up his commanding officer.

By then, he had risen through the non-commissioned officer ranks to sergeant. He’d been nicknamed Maverick since he was a recruit, since he had a stubborn tendency to defy the rules as and when it suited him. On a night out at a cantina which resulted in the officers and non-commissioned officers of his company getting quite drunk turned sour.

The fight had actually occurred when his superior officer had been eying a young girl for a while, and had started to move in on her. Her screams had galvanised Logan, and he had tried to remind his CO that he had been inebriated and wasn’t in his right state of mind. It struck him as immensely dishonorable. However, the CO shoved him aside, and so, Logan struck him with a good hard punch to force him away from the girl. This ended up in a fistfight in the back alley, and ended up with the CO with a broken jaw, and Logan with a black eye, a bleeding nose, and sprained wrist.

Partly because the CO was influential enough, Logan faced strokes from a cane as well as dishonorable discharge, and he left the military. In any case, he had struck a CO, and that itself could not pass without some form of punishment. He drifted, jobless, and returned to Corellia from Coruscant.

His father offered him a job as a mechanic, and although Logan was not particularly talented at that, he needed an income and so he took the job, working with the military once more, but as an employed mechanic and engineer. That kept him out of having to fly the ships, and he was perfectly fine with that. He was not happy as a mechanic, however, and would have taken up a life as a bounty hunter, except that one of his clients one day had been a Jedi Knight, Will Kales. Kales detected that Logan was Force sensitive, and offered to register him at the Jedi Temple to train as a Jedi. Having been still sore from his discharge from the military, Logan immediately accepted. Although his father opposed the decision, Logan was old enough to make his own decision without consulting his father, and he knew it.

Although Kales had discovered Logan, so as to speak, the Knight did not want the responsibility of training a Padawan learner just yet.

N/B: This character is intended to be a former Jedi Knight. As such, the history is truncated until he can get to Jedi Knight and then be expelled from the Order.

Who is wolverine? :S

I'm sorry, I actually based this on a What-If of Logan Gyre of Brent Week's Night Angel Trilogy. There, Logan Gyre is this guy who's a noble fella, and I wondered about a Logan Gyre who had ended up on the gritty side of society, so as to put it, since most of that book was gritty. >.< Of course, I felt bad about calling him "Logan Gyre" so I edited it >.<

I like this profile, and it should be interesting training this character. I haven't seen such a detailed personality for quite a while.
