Star wars nerd, busting in. >.>
Trying for role: Apprentice
Name: Shiathium-Narcasius (Shia for short)
Race: Squib
"Squibs. They'll sell you a bucket of air if you let them, and keep the bucket."
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance: Welp, picture time is a go!
Lightsaber color: Blue
"Issue": Alien
Personality: Shia is that one friend you have. You know the one. The one who, despite the worst outcomes happening, always has a cheery smile on his face. At first, one doesn't mind such a personality. And this is very true with Shia. When someone meets him for the first time they don't mind his happy-go-lucky personality that much. It's only when they spend more than a few days around him that his cheerful attitude becomes grating. The kind of grating where you try to drop every single hint known to the universe that you DON'T want to be around him.
No matter how far the insults go, Shia isn't one to back away from potential friends. He sees every opportunity he has with another as a way to cheer them up or keep them company. Besides, who wants to be alone all the time? That would be too boring! Perhaps Shia's favorite past time is sticking by those who seemingly have no friends, never getting the hint that perhaps they enjoy spending time alone.
Apart from cheering others up and being there for his friends Shia also enjoys tinkering with machines. He is quite capable of making repairs to ships and robots and while performing such tasks will genuinely leave others alone. Once someone bothers him though, he's rather quick to break away from his work so that he can 'hang out' with his friends.
One of the odder behaviors that Shia partakes in is rubbing various items across his fur. Squib kind has the ability to 'smell' other things. Disguises as well as forgeries can easily be discovered due to his fur as a result. Whenever speaking Shia also tends to use a bit of the human language and is often keen to using the word 'koovy' to try and impress others.
History: Shia hails from Skor II, a planet that held all sorts of various natural resources upon it. Born to a couple of merchants Shia was taught the art of the deal. He learned how to haggle with pirates and the republic. Often times his clan would partake in confusing contracts that would gain them many resources and leave the opposing party with empty hands.
During one of their trips to another planet Shia felt something tugging at his mind and discovered a strange cube among some trash heaps. He had no inkling as to what it was, but he kept it as a token of good luck. The years passed as the young Squib fell away from the path of a haggler. He began to find joy in providing more fair deals to his customers, finding to his shock that they would come back for his services later on. At the same time the cube he had found began to glow at odd times until finally one day Shia discovered that he could open it up.
Out was projected the image of a human who claimed that only a force sensitive could open the cube. Shia was directed by the strange image to the jedi temple that lay on Coruscant. While the masters there were thankful that another holocron had been brought to them, they informed Shia that they could not accept him into the order. Not one to be discouraged, Shia continuously came to the academy until one of the masters finally directed him to the planet of Dantooine.
It took him some time, but Shia finally arrived and began to train among the masters there, discovering that the force augmented his talents with machines.
