Name: Rohak Slisko
Faction: Mandalorians, hopefully.
Rank: Not Applicable
Species: Human
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Height: 74 inches.
Weight: 237 pounds.
Eyes: Dark brown, turn reddish when enraged.
Hair: Light brown.
Skin: Light tan.
Credits: 1,000.
Distinguishing Marks: Scar going from right temple, down to right eyebrow, across the bridge of the nose, then down the left cheek to the left jaw.
Force Sensitive: Yes, but no intent of developing any powers beyond enhanced situational awareness, sight, hearing, and lightsaber combat.

Strength: Powerful, with tree-trunk legs and barrel chest. Low upper-body strength, but his strikes are extremely painful. Can carry twice his weight for several miles.
Dexterity: Fast reflexes, though not highly mobile. Prefers a head-on approach rather than jumping around, unless it's to dodge ordnance.
Constitution: Extremely fit, and capable of taking a beating, then giving one twice as painful. Will complain of pain without being impaired by it.
Intelligence: Highly intelligent, a brilliant tactician and strategist, be it a one-man strike, or a large-scale battle.
Wisdom: At 36, Rohak is still a bit brash, but has seen plenty of battle. Willing to think things through before acting, but can also think as fast as he acts.
Charisma: About the same of a Drill Instructor, and a compassionate father rolled into one. Can move people quickly and easily to get things done, but can also take the time to ensure his subordinates are with him, and not merely following orders.

Force Powers: Not Applicable.

Skills: Hand-to-hand combat experience, and a master with a rifle. Scouting, sniping, and close-quarters battle, if it puts his boots on the ground and a rifle in his hands, Rohak can do it, and do it well. Also has respectable piloting skills and large-scale naval tactics, as well as groundside tactics from small strike forces to huge armies. Brilliant tinkerer and designer, has a plethora of designs from starships, fighters, tanks, and personal weapons.

Lightsaber Forms: Not Applicable.

Strength/Weaknesses: Highly intelligent, but quick to act at times. Easily angered. Strong and fast, though sometimes fails to pace himself. Can focus to the point where the outside world disappears, but doesn't often happen. Not easily distracted when not focused on a single task.

Gear: Beskar'gam passed down to him from his family, a plain grey, with various markings of different colors, all of which lean themselves to camouflage. Also has a custom rifle, built by one of his ancient ancestors a few years after the Clone Wars. Bullpup, with Verpine multi-caliber bore and magazine, fully ambidextrous, and multiple barrels, along with quadrail tactical system. Can be converted to a blaster rifle, and normal slugthrower in addition to the Verpine functions. He also carries a monomolecular-edged wakizashi-style beskad. The beskar'gam is also equipped with grapnel line, forearm shields, flamethrower, datacard reader, and magnetic clamps for smaller hold-out weapons. Both gauntlets also have retractable monomolecular-edged beskar tanto blades.

Ship: Not Applicable.

Droids: Not Applicable.

Pets: Nynir, his family's strill.

Personality:
Rohak has always seemed more mature than his peers, even from birth; however, he can also act just his own age, which can lead to embarassment for him. He is usually serious, but can also be quite the jokester when he is with his friends. Then again, making friends for Rohak has always been difficult, as he's relatively reserved and wary of others, yet when you become his friend, you also become his brother. Rohak displays great leadership skills, though he can work just as well by himself, and often prefers to be left alone to think, but otherwise craves the company of his friends. Usually Rohak is quick to anger, but those that know him well can calm him down, and he displays a great deal of tolerance for those close to him. In general, Rohak's personality can be described like this: "No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy".

Biography:
Rohak's parents started out as two entirely separate people: his father was a Mandalorian mercenary, hired to help the Jedi, one of whom he rescued and worked well together with. Eventually, the two fell in love, and they had a child: Rohak. In the Mandalorian tradition, Rohak's father trained him through to Rohak's Verd'goten. During his training, Rohak's father noticed an uncanny ability in his son, he was able to react so quickly it was almost as if Rohak could see the strike before it was even thrown. After he noticed this, Rohak's father contacted his mother, and convinced her to leave the Jedi, to train their son in the ways of the Force. When Rohak was 19, his parents were both killed by enemy raiders, and Rohak practiced how to supress his Force abilities, and looked to join the Mandalorians.

During his travels to Mandalore-Rohak didn't have his own ship-he worked with smugglers, pirates, and other mercenaries before he met a Corellian that he worked extremely well with. In fact, they worked so well together that rather than asking for a ride to Mandalore, Rohak decided to work with the Corellian as a two-man strike team. The Corellian would drop Rohak on the surface, and provide any sort of support Rohak might need on a mission. Eventually, as they worked, they gained a bit of infamy...but they gained too much. On a drop, Rohak's partner was shot down, and Rohak was forced to hijack an enemy fighter, and bang out of the system. Now having lost his parents and his partner, Rohak has decided to return to his family's roots: Manda'yaiim.

The use of a lightsaber by the untrained or those without the Force is a topic of constant debate. I haven't heard an official ruling yet, but I know that your character won't be allowed to use one in combat without extensive training and even then, he won't ever come close to what a Jedi or Sith are capable of doing with one. That is, unless your character begins as a Padawan or Acolyte and learns from a master, but I doubt you want that. My character has several trophy lightsabers that he has been known to use as cutting tools, but beyond that, he would never consider using one in combat. He would probably use a beskad, which has weight behind it, unlike a lightsaber.

Also, could you explain why his eyes turn red when he is enraged? He's a normal Human male, so I don't really see a reason for that.

Other than those two things, it's a pretty good start. I look forward to seeing more out of him in the role-play.

His mother taught him the basics of not chopping off his limbs, but yes, Rohak prefers his beskad over the lightsaber, but it makes for a handy hold-out or up-the-sleeve weapon.

Why do his eyes turn red when he's enraged? Because mine do, too. I thought it'd be an interesting little tidbit to throw in there.

If there's anything you'd like for me to start with, I'd be happy to oblige.
