Jedi~
Name: Jaq L. Lorenz, prefers Lorenz.
Race: Human/Zeltronian
Age: 29
Height: 5'7
Weight: 82 kilos
Appearance:
Bound around his upper right forearm, over his clothing, Lorenz wears a set of ribbons, each ribbon is of a different, color ranging from orange to violet each ribbon is also cut to a different length, so that they all hang evenly stopping at his waist, although the ribbons serve no practical interest, Lorenz insists on wearing them despite the flamboyance of it many simply chaulk it up to being a character quirk due to his Zeltorni heritage.
His pants are cut in the same style as his upper robes, fine-cut black and brown, made of the finest synthetics available anywhere int he galaxy, adding even more credence to his fellow's who call his garb 'Un-jedi' like, indeed they are quite right.
Although their well hidden Lorenz has a habit of tattooing things upon his body to remind himself of important events that took place in his past.
Birth place: Zeltron
Faction: Jedi
Rank: Knight
Bio: The model jedi... On the outside... Indeed his calm and smooth method of speech, his smiling and approachable exterior make him the type of guy anyone would want to meet on the street, however... Many people say that the soul of a living creature is cut into three... The part that you show others... The part that you show to yourself and finally that part that is the real you. This outer man, this model Jedi, is by no means the *real* Lorenz... Or maybe it is? To be honest, not even he really knows anymore. His long-term assignment amoungst the exchange has after nearly ten galactic years deep inside the organization, working as one of it's 'finger's' (members of the exchange who gather information and approach and are approached by unknown or untrustworthy clients) he has begun to change. An intense instinct for self preservation and self satisfaction has taken root within him.
His mind had begun to twist and change with a subtle insanity that takes hold of all men who take part in longterm undercover operations, indeed he no longer needs to *pretend* he's a cold and calculating member of the universes most powerful and violent criminal syndicate he *IS* a member, indeed on some levels, he is one of them more than is a Jedi. His methodology had been vastly twisted and corrupted, now, should the need arise he'll even turn his blaster on those who don't really deserve it in order to prevent his cover being blown with exchange.
He has also turned to comforts of the flesh in his time under cover, wooing women, frequenting unsavory bars... Indeed he has fallen far.
He now holds a hidden fear of being exposed to the Exchange, after all, who better than he knows of the hidden workings of the criminal organization... And their methods of dealing with traitors...
Lorenz is by no means evil - yet. But that doesn’t change the fact he doesn’t seem to regret the way he now treats others, in a perverse way it makes him feel better. As it stands now he isn’t the type to seriously wish anything truly horrible on others, but without some kind of help that future is still a distinct possibility.
He’s also developed a bit of a flair for symbolism, evident in his eccentric change of clothing.
History: [Here we come to my major problem friends... He doesn't have an interesting past... Indeed he was your perfectly normal person until he received his undercover assignment... And there really isn't much to tell about that either... I've tried to make up for what will amount to a lacking history in personality and rp... But... Well that's up to you guys...]
Born to a human father and a Zeltronian mother, Lorenz grew up in a middle class home on Zeltron, he was sought out by a Jedi (Coughs anyone who wants can send me a Pm asking to be said jedi) at the age of five... He was brought to the academy (depends on if a jedi PC claims that little role in his life or not, what academy that is...) He became a Knight at the age of nine-teen and was subsequently assigned to his current assignment as a member of the exchange due to his affinity for gaining the trust of others and manipulating the minds of those around him... He has been on Nar-Shaddaa ever since...
Lightsaber: His tonfa-style lightsabers are kept out of sight and out of mind, hidden in the deep recesses of his robe where they are quite safe from scrutiny yet are incredibly hard to reach on a split seconds notice, the lightsabers themselves are simple in design, the emmiter is made of Bothan ore and incredibly smooth with an orange sheen to it, the hilt width extends from the side of the emmiter is equipped with all the usual safety and locking measures, as well as a switch that engages the lightsaber in a *Free-form Axial Rotation* that allows the momentum of the user's movements to spin the emitter on the handle's axis (You know those party spinner things? Kinda like that...) The blades are short, about the length of the forearm, and can be rotated to either points at the opponent for rapid and devastating attack, or rotated back along the forearm for greater defense while distance between the opponent and the user is closed. The color of the lightsabers are orange with a pinkish outer glow, caused by tiny pink-colored facets in the Zeltronian crystals used in the lightsaber's designs.
