Background: Born into the agrarian nobility of Kilia IV, you were raised among fading technology and enduring traditions. As the youngest of three children, you were never destined to inherit land, but your early displays of insight, intuition, and uncanny calm marked you for a different path. At age 12, you were chosen as a Squire to one of the last surviving Kilian Lords—a reclusive but wise defender named Lord Shava Vell.
Trained in the ways of the Kilian Code—a chivalric doctrine inspired by ancient Jedi tales passed through oral tradition—you learned how to wield the siang lance and defend yourself with the shield gauntlet, all while being taught to serve justice, balance, and the will of the Force. As you matured, you journeyed across Kilia's remote provinces, settling disputes, warding off pirates, and uncovering forgotten relics in the abandoned tech vaults of his ancestors.
Personality: Stoic but compassionate, with a natural sense of duty and gravitas. You listen before speaking, respects even your adversaries, and rarely raises your voice — yet command attention when you do. Though many mistake you for superstitious or backward due to your feudal upbringing, you are deeply curious and respectful of knowledge, especially regarding the ancient Jedi or distant galactic affairs.
You lives by the tenets of the Kilian Code:
Protect the weak
Uphold balance and harmony
Use power only when words fail
However, your unwavering adherence sometimes causes friction with outsiders, especially offworlders who dismiss your ways as obsolete.
Goals:
Preserve the Kilian Rangers: With fewer than five known Rangers alive, you seek to train a new generation of Squires before the tradition dies with you.
Uncover Jedi Truths: Rumors of Jedi artifacts or lost knowledge beyond the system ignite your imagination. You dream of learning whether the Kilian Rangers truly inherited a fragment of their legacy—or merely echo myth.
Guard Kilia's People: Whether defending frontier villages from raiders or resolving blood feuds among nobles, you see your role as a guardian of peace and order in an unstable world.
Resist Corruption: You fear the growing ambition of some nobles who have fallen to darkness or made deals with smugglers and warlords. You must confront these threats—sometimes from within his own family.
Understand the Dark Side: You have sensed it before—in battle, in betrayal, in the bitter hearts of fallen Rangers. You wants to understand how the dark side twists intent so you may resist it — or help others do the same.
