PERSONALITY:
The brighter side to his personality is that Taoré's often light hearted, fun loving, and a little goofy. Loves the women, and is one hell of a womanizer. He has an acid tongue and he has no problem calling people out on their faults. While not the smartest individual, he cannot stand incompetence, even from himself, often berating himself for his stupidity.

The darker side is his ambition. While wanting to help others, he does have a big ego, and a short fuse temper. Since he never received any formal Jedi training, he has yet to silence that range of emotions which can lead to dangerous situations. While he won't put the safety of others after nothing, he is a risk taker and can be reckless at times. He has a leadership potential, but his ego holds him back.

BIOGRAPHY:
Taoré is the son of a Jedi Knight who was killed by a Dark Jedi (the battle left the dark warrior severly wounded, but allowed for the Jedi`s wife and unborn son to escape). Growing up poor, Taoré didn`t grow up like a normal child, never staying in the same place too long, and hiding out in shelters and hovels as refugees. By the time he was 7, he had developed at aptitude for flying, and somehow was able to find small portions of work by ferrying passengers to and fro by various services, which did provide a small amount of income for he and his mother. But that did not make growing up as he did less difficult.

By the time he was 14, Taoré had grown sick of the life he and his mother were living. With his piloting improved, he could begin to make them some money and live a proper life. It was then, that his mother handed him a journal, which was written by his father, revealing him to be the son of a Jedi Knight. The journal opened up Taoré's eyes, answering questions he had built up inside for years: Why they were always on the run, why she would never let him stray to far out of her reach, and why she would not accept him having a "normal" life. The journal also came with the damaged hilt of the lightsaber used to save his mother's life.

It was clear his father wrote the journal with the reluctant intent of passing down his training to his son, for fear his son would suffer the same life and fate as he did. His mother clearly pushed him to becoming a Jedi, which was the place where he could do the most good for the galaxy, to which he agreed. After spending a few years reviewing the journal, which contained information of how to use the Force as well as repairing the lightsaber, Taoré learned and grew, beginning to feel the Force awaken inside him for the first time, but felt he had gone as far as he could by the time he turned 18. Seeking out further training, he bade his mother goodbye with a promise to return, leaving the world he knew far behind, spending two years gathering information needed to find the Jedi, as well as helping others across the galaxy, Taoré finally found the Jedi Temple, where he now awaits to begin his formal training into a fully fledged Jedi Knight.

(Where RP bio begins)

After arriving at the Temple on Courscant, Taoré encountered other beings across different species vying to become Jedi as he did, one even being well over 8-feet-tall. After explaining the situation to the guards, as well as a Jedi Master on-site, he was asked to wait a day or two for a ferry that would take him to the planet Tython, where a Jedi Knight, Aden, had agreed to take him on as his Padawan. During the wait, he ended up getting into a barfight by accident as a gang of Rodians, and a sociopath, along with various Force Users and Bounty Hunters, were all vying for blood, some succeeding. During this, he had managed to assist the target of everyone in the bar`s interest, a beautiful redhead with an attitude, Brooke Antell, safe from harm, reluctantly having to blast a huge hole in the wall, as well as all the Rodians that had appeared, with a wild Force Push. Afterwards, he wanted answers, but was given precious few from the redhead, even though he tracked her down. He had a feeling they would meet again, but returned to the Temple to await on the ship.

A few days later, Taoré arrived on Tython, meeting his blind Master for the first time. At first glance, he was a little offput, but felt at ease with the environment; it being much different than anything he had lived or been in before. Over the course of this time, Aden began to train his young pupil in the ways of the Force, acknowledging his past experiences, as well as furthering his control, but never judging him. For the first time in his life, Taoré felt at peace, even though the work was difficult.
