Morality

• Morality: 78
• Conflict:
• Emotional Strength: Independence (The Force is with me) - Jace's faith in the will of the Force grants him great tenacity when faced with challenges.
• Emotional Weakness: Obsession | Recklessness (Prove your worth) - Now that Jace has been taken as a Padawan, he is determined to prove that he can become a great Jedi. He has come to believe that the Force itself has ordained this greatness - and he will go take any chance to display his power.
• Motivation: Faith (The Cosmic Force) - Jace has come to believe that the Force is at work throughout the galaxy, subtly guiding events to a predetermined outcome. There are no coincidences, or happenstance - and the chaotic nature of the Living Force eventually gives way to the serenity and eventuality of the Cosmic.

Background

My life has been a maelstrom of dualities. I was a bit older than most when the Jedi came to take me to the Temple. I remembered more of my family than most other Younglings, but I did not miss my family as much as others would. I worked hard to prove myself to be the best and most skilled in my Clan, but I was also emotional and undisciplined.

Eventually, my skill and strength in the Force was overshadowed by this emotional failing. When I was sent to my Gathering on Ilum, the apparitions in the great caves showed me things that terrified me, loss - rejection - abandonment, and I became swept up in my fear. When I emerged, without a Crystal, the Masters could sense the conflict in me and found me unfit for further training.

For many this would have been the end. I was sent off to the Explore Corps and for the next several years, I did my best to leave the True Jedi behind me. Then, in a strange twist of fate, I was assigned to the Chu'unthor, and ended up involved with a group of Padawans.

These kids and their masters challenged my ability to keep my cool, and yet, I felt a strange sense of purpose and belonging. It was with them that I acquired a Holocron I believed to contain the Gatekeeper of Jedi Master Lord Durym Raegos. After many months of study and tutelage under the obscure master, I came to understand my place in the Force and slowly let go of my resentment. It was then, that Lord Durym reveled his true nature to me. He was not a Holocron Gatekeeper - but a Spirit of the Force, one who had awaited centuries for me - a fulfillment of an ancient prophecy.

When I reveled this to the Master of the Chu'unthor, they considered this a great moment in the Force and allowed me to become a Padawan.

R2-L9 (Liner)

Holocron: Master Shrrin

Master Shrrin

• Skills: Discipline, Knowledge (Lore). You are considered to have both of these Skills as Career Skills for the entire time you are actively engaged in study of this holocron.
• Powers: Enhance, Seek. You may reduce the cost to purchase the Basic ability of one of these Powers by 5 XP. You may gain this benefit for the purchase of only one of the Powers.
• Special: Unknown • Holocron XP Spent: 5/60
  • Unlocked Talents (0/3): x
  • Unlocked Skills (0/1): x
  • Unlocked Secrets (0/1): x
• History: A member of an unknown species, Master Shrrin lived over two thousand years ago. Not much is known of his early history as part of the Order. In time, he became renowned for his mystic philosophy regarding the Force. Unlike many who delve into the depths of the Force's mysteries, however, he never eschewed violence. He considered the pursuit of proper justice to be the highest calling the Force demanded of him, and he was well-known as a wandering law-bringer to some of the wilder reaches of the Outer Rim.
• Personality: Just how much Master Shrrin's peculiarities are part of his species and how much are personal is unknown. He teaches by meditation and example, encouraging his student to seek out those situations that are most fearful to him, that he might conquer that weakness. His teachings are clear: the Jedi who focuses his discipline entirely inward does not truly serve the Force, but his own ego instead. A Jedi must seek out those in need of help and use the gifts of the Force selflessly. A Jedi who dies of old age has failed; self-sacrifice for the good of others is the only fitting end for the true Jedi.
• Rumors: Master Shrrin's students sometimes speak of a favorite lesson of Master Shrrin's: the lesson of the Crystal Sphere. It is a favored metaphor and teaching device used by the strange Jedi master, and it is said that some students who gained his favor and demonstrated their discipline learned unexpected things about its mysteries.

Force Ghost: Master Durym Raegos

Master Durym Raegos

• Though the phantom of Master Durym Raegos once acted as mentor for Jace in the ways of the Jedi, his presence has diminished. He reveals that such intense presence was difficult for what remains of his presence in the Force, and he can appear only infrequently.
