Backstory: Hertikan was born on Shili, in a small village where everyone knew everyone. He was but a young boy when he was taken to the temple, but he was excited. As a youngling, he was very excited about everything, having a hard time being still in one place, very curious and very talkative. The excitment the young 12 boy had was barely containable when he got his master. He talked a lot to him, being happy and made a secret, naive promise to himself to always do as his master asked to 110%. Then came the unexpected for him. His master was very abusive, and as Hertikan hade made a promise he did everything as told. When he was told he was stupid he agreed and pulled all nighters studying. When told he was worthless he agreed and worked on his skills with the force and his lightsaber. What was hard for him however was the physical abuse. He got beaten violently for talking too much, and more often than not it was in places not visible for other jedis to see. It was only visible that he became less and less talkative and social, and followed his master around like a puppy and followed his every order like a puppet on strings. The final straw came when he was 21, when his master became furious because Hertikan finally talked back after 9 years of abuse. His master tied him up with chains in their quarters and physicly ripped off his montral. His screams were cancelled out by noise cancelling walls, but he reached out to everyone he could through the force to share his pain in a desperate call for help before passing out. Just before his other montral was going to be ripped out as well, the council bursted in. His master was executed for his grave crimes, and when Hertikan finally recoverd after a year, he was given the rank of jedi knight. The impact of his former master however was so grave that he refused to ever speak unless absolutely needed. Not even as rumors spread of how he lost that montral he spoke. At age 25 he was given his first padawan to help him on his road to recovery. Marona Cast. She was quiet as well, though by nature, and they got along good. Two years was all they got together however, before she was shot in her shoulder by a droid while being on a mission on Hoth, and fell down in a ravine. It truly did break his heart, thinking she was gone. It wasn't until he was 32 that he saw Marona again, but by then she was known as Darth Rena, and he had been a master to Talis Kelio for two years. At first, he struggled a lot with Talis, because she was talkative and naive, like he once was. He refused to be close to her, but slowly she grew onto him. Sadly however, when he was 34, Talis got reassigned to Aayla Secura because the council didn't trust him with a padawan anymore, but Talis was so dependant on him with her nightmares that they still went on pretty much all her missions together, and still shared quarters.
Weaknesses: Doesn't hear as good, pretty much deaf from the side with the missing montral, problems with balance, PTSD from his abusive master
