Apologies if this isn't the right area, but this character is supposed to be for Dawn of the Republic.

Shea Beunari

NAME: Shea Beunari
FACTION: Jedi Order
RANK: Padawan
SPECIES: Human
AGE: 16
GENDER: Male
HEIGHT: 5'10''
WEIGHT: 180 LBs
EYES: Light Blue
HAIR: Dark Brown
SKIN: Caucasian, though slightly tanned.
CREDITS: 1, 000
DISTINGUISHING MARKS: A permanent scar a few inches from his left eye, though it's not noticeable unless up close and under concentrated light, such as the glow from a holographic transmission.
FORCE SENSITIVE: Yes, Shea is strongly connected with the force.




STRENGTH: Shea is a well built, but not overly muscular, for a human; with his size and weight, he's above average (compared to other humans), but the young teenager won't be completing feats of impressive strength any time soon. He is capable of lifting his own body weight in order to pull himself up from ledges, or complete physical exercises like chin ups and pull ups. He complements his upper body strength with his lower body strength, naturally able to lift more with his legs then arms.

DEXTERITY: The young Padawan has a surprisingly high level of dexterity, from his legs to his hands, which greatly influences his skills in lightsaber combat. He is quick on his feat, mobile and animated when he needs to be. He self-describes himself as fluid, which lead him to practice the Form V lightsaber skills.

CONSTITUTION: Shea is a fairly fit and healthy teenager, well at least for the most part. He is able to withstand both mental and physical attacks for a short period of time, capable of withstanding non-lethal striking blows that would have otherwise render another individual crippled, winded or unconscious. That being said, he's not a tank, and it would only take a few hits for him vitality to lower.

INTELLIGENCE: Shea has an good level of intelligence, capable of applying the skills learned from his teachings - which are ongoing - in difficult or unclear situations. Coupled with decent intelligence, he possesses the intellect to learn from his own mistakes and others; of course, he also learns from the lessons his superiors give him, from first hand experience to academic studies. The Padawan clearly, however, learns faster and more efficient with first hand experience.

WISDOM: Being young, Shea doesn't possess a lot of wisdom, but he does have some; the main lacking feature to his lacking wisdom is experience, a vital part to wisdom itself. Though he may have a decent level of intelligence and education, he can't make good judgement calls in regards to topics he has no experience in. That doesn't stop him from making good judgement calls every once and a while, but they're typically more common sense then not. In a stressful situation, Shea might make a foolish decision.

CHARISMA: Shea has a fairly poor charisma to people outside of his 'circle' of influence, tending to be withholding and that doesn't exactly inspire confidence by others who don't know him on a more personal level. However, for those individuals who do know him on a more personal level, he is more out going and it attracts individuals into getting to know the teenager better.





PERSONALITY:

Shea is a confident, young teenager with a tenacious attitude in his desires to be a Jedi Knight. He is self controlling, but can be brash and slightly egotistic (which explains why he self-describes himself); despite the negatives, the young Padawan has a noticeably vibrant energetic attitude, a 'can do' mentality if you will. Though with vibrant energy comes a vibrant anger as well, which can align itself in either a positive or negative way with his impulsive tendencies, and the dark side of the force pulls and tugs the more the Padawan uses anger over calmness. Though Shea does have mixed outward personality, he is a caring and compassionate individual with an exaggerated heart. He cares for a lot of people, even though they may have had disputes in the past.

The young man is filled with positive energy, though. Not only is he caring, Shea can also be extremely loyal to people he trusts. Not only are his loyalties secure but his sense of what is and isn't morally correct compels him to be a protector for those who either can't protect themselves or have submitted into being abused/used. While he wouldn't willing sacrifice himself for people he didn't know, he would gladly die in combat so that someone unable to fight had the chance to continue living another day, a part of what he sees is his duty as a protector and peace keeper. This can often be problematic, though, as Shea is often unable to depart from feeling strongly for another individuals. To sum it up, Shea is a 'good kid' and his heart is in the right place.

BIOGRAPHY:

Shea Beunari was brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant shortly after his third 'birthday', as that is the age when he reached maturity to begin studies of the Force and the ways of the Jedi. Born to a human parents, whom he does not know, he was raised until his relocation to the Temple by foster parents along with numerous other biological children to the couple. He first displayed his abilities as a force sensitive child at a much younger age, pushing and pulling toys across the room (while giggling or laughing at the same time). He was eventually collected by a Jedi Master, but during their first moments, Shea used the force to manipulate the Jedi's lightsaber into wobbling; the Jedi knew, of course, and broke the younglings concentration before he was able to accomplish anything - the attempt tiring the child out. His training begun with learning to control the force, both mentally and physically, by instructors, Jedi Masters and Knights. The training was 'tougher' than Shea would like to admit, but meditation proved to be a calming and rejuvenating experience that eventually grew into the seeds to have the desire to be a Jedi Knight.

The youngling excelled in learning the three main pillars he was being taught: The Force, Knowledge and Self-Discipline; these were the pillars he was told would be the fundamentals of supporting them on an individual level as their training progressed. Alongside classes and school course material and assignments, the youngling quickly became adept at teamwork as well. During his teachings, he was encouraged to draw on other younglings for help or assistance when - together as a collective - they needed it. Through out the years of being a Padawan, Shea possessed a 'top of the grade' ability to wield the force, meditate and control a lightsaber; he only achieved academic satisfactory, however, indicative of his reliance on 'hands on' learning. He passed the Initiate Trials at the age of thirteen and was assigned as a Padawan to a Jedi Knight for a further three years. During this time Shea learned the practice of Jar'Kai, wielding two lightsabers instead of one. Unfortunately, with the natural passing of Shea's master, he was reassigned to a new one.​

FORCE POWERS:


Shea is adept in control, where he was taught from a young age to be proficient and efficient in connecting his mind to the Force, establishing ways to develop further as a Jedi Padawan. He has decent self control, even in the face of his impulsive nature and tendency to let anger be victorious over a more calmer mentality; he continues - like all Jedi - to develop these skills.

However, Shea is only mediocre in the sense department, having only three years of lessons on the ability outside of the classes he received as a Initiate. While sense was meant to broaden the scope of their control abilities, Shea had difficulties at first learning to concentrate in immersing himself into the environment the Force surrounded. He would struggle under pressure to focus on what was around him, more concerned on seeing than feeling a presence. Though he struggles with environmental sense, he has moderate skill in enhancing his other senses, like smell.

Shea is also mediocre in alter skills, but despite the lack of lessons he has received outside the temple classes, Shea possesses a strong ability to manipulate objects to varying success. His most powerful ability in the alter family of skills is using telekinesis to manipulate objects or items. He is effective at the telekinesis skill because he's capable of focusing for the brief moments required and exerting his energy into the task.


SKILLS:


Shea is very talented in lightsaber duels, his mindful yet appropriately aggressive stance using the fifth form of lightsaber combat allows him to be more effective than he was with any other form of lightsaber combat variants. Utilizing Jar'Kai and two lightsabers, Shea can easily push someone not as talented as him on the defensive very quickly, or block and maintain a defence from someone more skilled then himself and only using a single lightsaber Though he has impressive skills, for his age of course, he isn't a master with the lightsabers; he will, if too cocky, put himself into dangerous positions.


LIGHTSABER/SWORD FORMS:
Shea chose to learn the Form V, preferring it over the overly defensive Form III.


STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:

Shea has numerous strengths, from his lightsaber skills to his physical strength and agility. His abilities in the force is average for someone his age, but he's more advanced in telekinesis feats that most students he knows personally. Alongside his skills, he is a quick learner and adapts to situations fairly easy. He can take pressures and stresses that come with being a Jedi and remain mentally calm - for the most part anyway. Though, with strengths, come weaknesses.

Shea is known to get angry, and coupled with an energetic attitude, his less than desired moments can push him closer and closer to the dark side - especially if he uses the force while angry - just like any other individual practising the light side of the Force. The main causes of his anger are disrespect, rude and snippy remarks and egotistical individuals that believe the world orbits themselves. Though, it should be kept in mind, Shea is not an angry individual naturally.

GEAR:
- Jedi Robe
- Blue Shato Lightsaber with a slightly curved hilt.
- Blue Lightsaber with a slightly curved hilt.​
