Strengths & Weaknesses: Sando's greatest strength is his wisdom. Years of aiding others has taught him much about life and death. He has considerable knowledge of the Force and is very adept at healing others. Like most of his group, his compassion can lead him to spend large ammounts of time in one area in disguise, treating the sick and bringing hope to the desparate. He does have a taste for fine wine and can imbibe quite a bit.

Personality: Wisened and jovial, Sando is a friendly man. He usually seems ready to offer his services to those in need, even when not wanted. He believes nothing is impossible, but is realistic when goals become improbably. His knowledge is readily available to members of the Sol Sect and he takes personal interest in the lives of his brothers and sisters.

Bio:

Sando Sieno was born into the Sol Sect. The child of Compassion he was brought into a very warm and loving family. He spent his early childhood under the tutelage of his father, Healer Sendo, while his mother, Compassion, was offworld bringing her gift of the Force to the downtrodden.

His lessons began with instructions on using the Force to sense his environment and the emotions of others. Sando took to the training with surprising ease, it quickly became clear the young Togruta was an Empath. When others around him were sad he felt the emotion exactly as they did. Sendo had to teach his son how to control his natural ability so that it wouldn't overwhelm the child.

Unlike his first lesson, Sando's next one was difficult for him. Attempting to control his empathy seemed unnatural and that alone hampered his mastery of the skill. "If we cannot seperate our emotions from our Ward's, how can we know who to help?" these words, spoken by Compassion over a holo-message, were enough to convince Sando to accept his father's lessons.

Having mastered control over his empathy, Sando's lessons continued. The Apostle studied using the Force to heal wounds, slow the affects of diseases and project soothing thoughts into the minds of Wards. Again he displayed a talent at using the Force to the benefit of others, even if they were wounded creatures induced to sleep with the Force. He would learn this skill too as he progressed towards becoming a Healer.

Alongside using the Force to heal, Sando's father educated him on modern medicinal practices. His own view was that if a wound could recover naturally then it was best to do so, if only to make the injured party wiser for the experience. These lessons would continue until Sando turned eighteen and ascended from Apostle to Healer.

Becoming a Healer was the proudest day of Sando's life, and both of his parents were there to witness the event. His mother, known as Mother Compassion, was the one who accepted his oath while his father, Sendo, gifted him with a blue sash to wear around his waist. This was the identifying mark of a Sect Healer. From that day forth he was given the means to aid those in need.

Sando spent several years as a Healer, operating mostly on the Republic world of Coruscant where he felt the most pain coming from the underbelly of the planetary megapolis. His work was difficult as crime ran rampant where he chose to reside, posing as a homeless man. For each person he helped, another one suffered. The near futility of it all was enough to cause a crisis of faith for the Togruta.

A single year of his journey was spent under constant meditation, sorting out his thoughts. He tried to keep his emotions closed off for control but could not manage it. Nothing seemed right about the situation and he realized avoiding it only meant that more people suffered. Sando recognized that he could not help everyone, he wasn't a savior, he was a Healer. For each person that suffered, another one was inspired by his hand.

Sando returned to Naboo to return to the temple for a brief meeting with the Council of three. Mother Compassion, Father Mercy and Father Charity greeted him at the swamp entrance to the temple, each one holding an article of clothing. One was a white sash with two hands, held cupping each other, stichted across the center in silver. This went around his waist, crossing over his Healer's sash. The second was a white robe, plain and sturdy, which was draped over his shoulders. The third and final article of clothing was a pair a black sleeves, these were embossed with the Blazing Sun that was the Sect's symbol. Sando had ascended to Sagehood.

As a Sage he was personally instructed by Sol Oya, the leader of the sect at the time. With her as his new teacher he learned to further his healing abilities and gained new ones including Morichiro, a power he mastered. Through the eighteen years as a Sage, Sando would inherit all of Sol Oya's knowledge and prove himself as a valuable asset to the sect. He would then go on to take up the title of Sol upon Oya's passing.

For the past ten years he has led the Sect as Sol Sando Sieno
