Name: Torin Dol
Age: 25
Race: Kel Dor
Personality: Steeped in his native Force Tradition from the early days of his life, Torin isn't much for speaking at all, unless he believes that his input is completely necessary. He has ultimate faith in his abilities, believing they are second to none. However, unlike many of the order he once belonged to, Torin is not by any means a pacifist. He is very skilled in the use of blasters and vibro-weapons, specialising in vibro-knives and wrist-mounted, small-caliber weapons and is not afraid to use those skills to get what he believes needs to be done accomplished.
History: The young Kel Dor was born in 19 BBY. He was very Force-Sensitive, but with the Gread Jedi Purge in progress the same year he was born, the Jedi never got the chance to recruit him. As such, he was found by a far gentler, less troubled Force Tradition on his own home planet of Dorin not long after his third year of life: the wise and mysterious Baran Do Sages. Taught by these aged masters from this early age, Torin's immense Force capacity - which would later be found to result from a Midi-Chlorian count of nearly 12,400 - allowed him to grow unusually strong rather quickly.
In his eighteenth year of life, Torin began to question the teachings of the Baran Do. He could see that their tradition served its purpose well; their concentration on the power of Farsight(to the exclusion of all others) made them exceedingly powerful seers, giving forewarnings of natural disasters sometimes weeks in advance. However, he couldn't agree to their pacifistic dogma when the galaxy was as chaos-ridden as it was and remains to this day. The year after, the Battle of Yavin took place, an event which convinced the young Kel Dor to leave his order and seek a more active role in shaping the galaxy as it would soon become.
He joined the Rebellion just before his twentieth birthday, his Force Skills, despite being non-Jedi in origin, eagerly embraced by the Alliance. While he himself had little combat capability, he quickly showed himself to be a brilliant strategist, breaking many old records and setting many new ones in command simulations despite always losing in ground sims and having a nearly even record as a pilot(Which was only because of his Foresight in the first place).
At the battle of Hoth, he helped to coordinate the evacuation of Echo Base. In the Battle of Endor, he was placed in command of a small sub-devision of officers on a capital ship that was destroyed by the Death Star - an event that he saw coming almost as soon as the Fleet arrived and was therefore prepared to evacuate his team when the time came upon him. Promoted to the rank of Major within the Rebel Alliance half because of his preformance in that group's survival and half because the Alliance was in need of more higher-ranking officers after that battle, Torin Dol continues to serve faithfully to this day as he learns ever more about combat with the weapons he has come so close to mastering.
Weapons (If any): 14 Vibro Knives hidden within his Baran Do Sage robes and a wrist-mounted sporting blaster.
Sample RP, in character:
Do you really need me to do this, Admin-Sama? You know me...

This sounds like a really interesting character.
