Biography

Born on the planet Togoria, from a young age Jak'ath was self-taught to be independent. His mother had many children. Having several brothers and a little sister, Konan often felt overwhelmed in the small home and spent a lot of time away from the house, exploring the rich forests of the planet and hunting with some of the other young Togorians in his group. Despite often being away from his family, Jak'ath loved them and was very protective over his little sister, Tig'ral.

Peace and isolation of the planet Togoria would soon cease, with the growing Imperial Republic at the time seeing a large prospect on the planet, they decided to invade it. Konan will never forget that night, still burned into his mind forever. The empires soldiers lined up like chess pieces on a board, retaining perfect composure as they gunned down and slaughtered innocent men, women, and children. As if this was some practice for them, the sight of this bloodshed being just another night as an Imperial soldier. The warriors in the village put up the best fight they could but fell to the superior technology of the empire.

Konan, who was not near the village during the initial attack, could hear the faint sounds of the screams and the blaster fire, as well as the wicked and violent cracking of the flames. Running towards the village as fast as he could, tears filling in his eyes as he cried out. By the time he had reached home, it was just a massive ball of fire, soon turning everything in it to ash. Konan could only stand and watch, completely powerless and afraid.

The Galactic Alliance got word of the Imperials assault on Togoria and sent fighters of their own to counter-act their advances and help supply the villages with better technology and means to defend themselves against the imperial weaponry. Konan was alone, sitting near his village as he stared into the blackness of the ash as it drifted away. Hearing voices from behind, he leaped up in fear, catching the attention of the soldiers who made their way towards Jak'ath. "We're not here to hurt you, little one." the soldier said. The confused and hurt Konan embraced the soldier, the first act of compassion he had received for days since his village was burned.

Having no family left, Konan asked the rebels if he could come with them to wherever they were going, saying he wanted to go with them. The rebels hesitantly agreed, and Konan began his new life on Yavin 4. Growing up under the wing of the rebellion, Konan was entranced by the ideals of resistance and freedom from the tyranny and oppression of the empire and other warring factions. If everything was evil in this galaxy, Konan believed this was the last vestige of good.

When Konan was of age he decided he wanted to fight for the Galactic Alliance, becoming a pilot. With two years of being a pilot, Konan forged several friendships and bonds with his fellow soldiers. The naive Togorian had believed the Jedi to be extinct, never seeing one, to him it was a myth that there was Jedi fighting for the Galactic Alliance. His skepticism soon went away when he was called to the planet Hoth for a reconnaissance mission. His eyes fell on a woman wearing robes, talking to a few generals who were present at the meeting, he didn't know at first, was this a Jedi?

Making his way to the woman, he asked her who she was, and why she was wearing that silly outfit. The Jedi woman smiled, her name was Anitha, a female human who was one of the Jedi Knights that remained mainly in the shadows to keep safe. The Jedi took great interest in Konan, resting her hand on his shoulder, she could feel the force was strong with him. Exuberated, she asked him if he wanted to learn the ways of the Jedi. Although feeling a rush of excitement, Konan maintained a stoic composure, demanding she proved herself a Jedi with some act of the force. To the togorians surprise, she didn't hesitate as Konan felt a rush of powerful wind lift him up from the ground. He yelled, demanding to be put down whilst laughing with the Jedi Knight afterward.

An immediate connection was formed, and from age 16 he began his journey training as a Jedi student under his master and deep friend Anitha. He followed her wherever she went, primarily in secret throughout the galaxy, keeping a low profile whilst helping whoever they could to make this crappy galaxy a little better, day by day.

Personality & Traits

Konan is both understanding and patient, showing love and compassion to those. Despite his horrible past, Konan is in control with his emotions, not without the help of his master who was helped guide and shape his former lust for revenge into a more productive willingness to move forward and help build a better world. He is laid-back and easy-going, but when on a serious mission is extremely focused and aware.

He has a strong sense of duty and honor, willing to sacrifice himself if need be if it means saving the lives of others. No matter the task, Konan shows commitment to it and tries with all of his ability to see that task through. Sometimes this works against him, as he doesn't know when to quit. Hard-headed and stubborn to his cause, he has no time for manipulators and schemers, seeing through their pathetic ploys to turn or control him or others.

Konan wants nothing else than to see a galaxy that doesn't need to be afraid of tyranny or war. In his years of training with his master as a padawan, intense meditation has helped to hone his communications with the force, he believes the force will guide him to do whatever necessary to ensure the dream succeeds.
