  • There are many words that can be used to describe Burkhart's physical description. However to get the full measure of the man one must stand in his presence themselves. A striking height of approximately two meters is the first thing people notice. Second is the muscular frame that stands stoicly. Arms of considerable girth at either side make people think twice of coming within arms reach. Burkhart has a thin coating of fur over most of his body. Most of this is a dark ashen color while others are thinned grey that expose the patched dark and light skin color underneath.

    The face of the mandalorian sits atop a stocky torso connected by a muscular neck. The canine features are only emphasized when he opens his mouth to expose the characteristic teeth of his species. Twin yellow irises strike contrast on his otherwise rough appearance. Numerous scars criss-cross his body but his skin is tough and while some would have killed lesser men they have only made him seem that much more intimidating. The ears on his head are nipped and have cuts on the edges. A large cut stretching from where his left shoulder meets his chest all the way down to his right upper abdominal muscles is his most prominent scar. Both of his hands have built up moderate     calluses from his regular sparing and training.

    Each digit on either hand has a mild pointed nail that can cut shallow lacerations on an opponent if he wishes. Burkhart's feet have larger claws than his hands and he prefers to walk bare foot if possible. Most of the time he will wear nothing but trousers in a casual setting. He has no special preference towards fashion and would don something that has pragmatic uses most of the time.

    Burkhart's voice is deep and measured most of the time but is thick in an accent. When aggravated it can spike to a higher pitch for arguments. His words will often be accented by tones of barks and growls with certain sounds that would not normally come from human biology. Still this is a rare occasion and speaks casually though with fewer words than most.

    On the inside of his forearm Burkhart has a tattoo that says 'delete my browser history' in a joke towards those he had trained a long side. He has since gained several other tattoos and looks to add more to those number.

    In a confrontation in Hutt space Burkhart gained a nasty wound on his arm from a sith lightsaber. It was partially destroyed by the energy weapon but the arm was mostly salvage but not without some major changes that needed to be done. He got cybernetic implants (♣)to help him and adapt to his new injury so he would not have a significant weakness.
  • The type of wise and equally measured barkeep is the type of individual Berkhart is often seen. The fact that he is a brew-master and his overall demeanor only reinforces this perception. Not necessarily reserved he is not a boastful being. Far from jovial he is a cool and calm warrior most of the time. But people aren't so simple as to just be described as one type of personality. For Berkhart this is true as even his seemingly simple personality is a spectrum of characteristics that define him.

    Berkhart was raised in the Mandalorian way of life from day one. This has been instilled in him just like any other being from the warrior culture. However he was also born on the planet of Concord Dawn where life is even harsher than the sister planet. He does not believe in luck or karma. Such things are for the ignorant and desperate. However Berkhart understands there is chaos and chance in the universe and some individuals are just randomly more fortunate.

    While the Morling Mandalorian is as tough as they come he has a soft side. His passion lies in his work and the farm he owns. Wine, spirits and drink in general is a subject he loves. Chemistry is a science he has shown an aptitude for and his schooling has shown his motivation to be impressive enough to put him at the top of his class at the Corsin University.


  • Burkhart was born to a strict mother, Nheth, and an indifferent father, Jrikk. He was thought to be born two weeks early which was strange because he was as large as an average pup. Jrikk believed people would think they had just had the baby out of wedlock and so kept things under wraps. Jrikk was a local leader of a group that were far from progressive. He had desired power and wanted to keep what he had gained in his own life time and that was why he had married young Burkhart's mother. It was a political move and one that disguised his father's sexual orientation. Burkhart's mother learned of this after the first year of Burkheart's childhood. Still the two parents kept the marriage going for sake of appearances.

    Eventually Burkhart's father was outed. He faced opposition within the community but a surprising amount of support that made him allow to continue on as a political presence. While this was good for his own political career it meant he started distancing himself from his own child and wife who he had only used to appear normal up until that point. Burkhart acted out to spite his father, to gain attention and because he did not feel like he belonged or was not wanted. That was not just his feelings inside his family, but the community as well. He was always 'the son of the leader' and never his own person. Now he was 'the ill begotten son of the scandelous leader' which only made things worse.

    One night his mother came home drunk and unintentionally let slip that Jrikk was not necessarily his true biological father. There was another man but Nheth did not give enough details. The following days, weeks and months he persisted to try and learn more. At first his mother argued against it, denying it completely even until she realized there was no way she was going to be able to keep Burkhart from finding the truth. So she let him know that a month prior too her wedding with Jrikk she had lain with a man by the name of Dral'ede. Nheth told her son that he could find his biological father on Concord Dawn.

    A month later Burkhart left his home and headed off to find his true father. There was no love lost between him and his father but he did say goodbye to his mother. She cried when he left and he said he would try to speak to her when time allowed. His plan was to get answers but even if he found none with this mandalorian he would travel and live abroad. Burkhart knew that he just did not belong with his old family so he began his search for his true place in the galaxy.

    Burkhart would arrive on his father's doorstep a two weeks later. He had to track down and work his way through the back roads of the rural planet until he eventually came to his father's homestead. First meetings with him were a surprise and awkward but eventually the man accepted Burkhart. Dral'ede had a girlfriend and the two treated Burkhart like a new member of the family. He ended up staying with them instead of traveling. This lasted a whole year and over time Burkhart essentially adopted the mandalorian way of life as his own.

    Years would pass and he would continue to work for his father until he became an adult. His father regularly went on trips, traveling throughout the galaxy to sample spirits and drinks. He was essentially a bootlegger. During this time there was no shortage of hardship, violence and criminal enterprise. Sometimes they had to smuggle, sometimes they had to steal and even kill. But these were not their main profession, just collateral requirements for some endeavors. All the same it allowed Burkhart to get a glimpse of many different life styles in the galaxy. He gained knowledge of smuggler ways, the tenacity of bounty hunters, the ruthlessness of law enforcement and the hardship of squalor.

    Dral'ede married his girlfriend, Kursh and they ended up selling most of their business assets to start a tavern on Concord Dawn. They got out of the game before they got hurt and now work small time brewery that is a legitimate business. Burkhart wanted to continue the lifestyle of a bootlegger, seeing more money and adventure in it. His father and his new step-mother were still willing to let him work underthem at the brewery but he respectfully refused. He did not want the quiet and easy life, which Dral'ede understood. Most of the hardship the father had been through came and went before Burkhart had arrived so he only cautioned his son on the path ahead. The rest of Burkhart's future was in his own hands.

    Burkhart became the Alor of clan Kelborn eventually and as a result his approval was sought for joining under the House banner of Solus. He agreed and so Kelborn became a clan and relations continued to ease between the two clans.

    After the move to take Imperial Hutta, Burkhart became a Field Marshal and threw one of the largest parties in recent memory. In the comming years the Morling pushed for more action against the sith among his peers and became a renowned leader among the Mandalorians.

    On the side he continued to grow his business, the Kel Cartel. He began to monopolize strains of recreational spice. A space station was put into place over Contruum. His interests were beginning ot focus more on profits seeing as he felt there was not much call for his presence on the battlefield anymore.

    When Mandalore was bombed he arrived with a flotilla and assisted in defending Mandalore's moon, Concordia. This resulted in the successful destruction of several Sith Empire ships. Mandalorians on the moon were able to rally and drive off any imperials and hold their ground. Soon after Burkhart returned to Contruum and focused on moving more towards his goal. This resulted in another party being held on the pirate haven planet, Atlas. A fight broke out after Sith were spotted and the new Mand'alor, Leandros Solus branded him a Dar'manda. Accepting his new status Burkhart has turned to focus on his business.

1. Going to need a write up link for those fingerless shock boxing gloves. Seeing as shockboxing involves electricity.
2. Per the Character Creation Rules Guide. - "New characters can start with one (1) main arm, two (2) side arms and one (1) melee, though there is the option to switch arms for melees.", you have 3 main arms to start, i need you to lower that to 1.
3. From the same ^ - "When it comes to ships, vehicles and droids characters may start off with one (1) each. However, characters with small businesses may start off with a handful of droid (or regular) NPCs." You have 4 droids, does Burkhart have a business that these droids staff or are they all personal droids? Bring it down to 1 personal droid.

Removed fingerless shock boxing gloves
lowered the weapon count to appropriate numbers
Removed all but one droid
I changed the apartment to a Bar and Apartment since that is his legit family business. I can get a labor droid or something in the near future for it so I'll stick to one for his smuggling/other stuff.
