"In the end we are one, and we believe sacrifice is necessary.The ends justifies the means. I, more often than not, agree. Peace and Balance in all things is the goal of every Kashi. For they know they are earned not given freely."
As a young boy, Ronin grew up never knowing anything about his family, past or even his name. For as best could recall, spent much of his early part of youth as an orphan. One of a handful of survivors rescued from a Slaver ring bust by the Republic. Found with neither any identification paper nor record in their database, he was eventually placed in the orphanage. Until he either came of age or adopted into a new family.
However, while there he had a rough time fitting in for it seem. He exhibited strange traits and behavior which none. Of the caseworkers, children or countless foster family could not tolerate nor understood. Which later on lead to disappointments and heart ache, as he grows up. Which lead to him eventually run away on his own at age 12.
Life on the run...[]
Ronin on the street.
Wandering the universe and vast territories. Doing odd job wherever he could work or stow away in different crafts. In order support himself and elude the dangers of life out on his own . He'd run into trouble and for a time had gotten in debt to a Hutt Crime Boss, Ziro. For whom he ended up doing odd jobs for in order repay his debt. And started his career as a Bounty Hunter and assassin. Which he grew quite proficient and with a good kill track sheet ratio.
He was almost done pay off his due to the Hutt. When he was given one last assignment, to seduce, kidnap and eventually eliminate.

Until one day some years after,during a resupply stop in one of Corellian’s ports. They were ambushed and they had to flee. Later captured they are huddled to a secret location where he finds out the truth about Jarrod. Whom it turns out to be was a CorSec Agent named Ronin Conner working on a special undercover assignment, With a Corellian Jedi named Kyle Kincade.
After which when he recovers is pull out of the assignment which is declared a failure and inconclusive. Jarrod is crippled by his injury, demoted to a desk job. His captors then see Ronin as a liability and with his rap sheet uncovered. Was slated to be shipped to maximum-security prison when Jarrod intervenes on his behalf with the help of a close friend. They are able to secure for him an optional sentence, a chance to choose where in he is offered a chance. To be taken under Jarrod's friend's guidance with the possibility of securing a pardon for his crimes. This after much thought he comes to decide to take and end up being released to Jedi Knight Kyle Kincade custody.
A chance for a fresh start...[]
CorSec Agent Ronin Wendigo
Then shipped to an undisclosed training facility where he spends the next 3 yrs. On the other hand, so. Where finally Kyle understands his unknown skills. Of that being to be that, he was Force Sensitive enough to be trained. However, due to his age and seem dark past he was not allowed to be trained. By those in the Jedi temple where Kyle was, so instead he did his best to help him cope with his untapped gift as best he could. The CorSec then recruits graduating at the top of his class Ronin. As part of their undercover unit and starts his career. As a scout with them then working his way up to Agent status.
He then eventually earns when tragedy strikes Jarrod and Kyle dies in action during an assignment. Sometime during one of their mission on top of that. Ronin is caught in a controversial case, which gets him suspended. Alone and unsure of his future he resigns his post and go on his separate way, piloting his own ship and taking his chances in uncovering his own past, and maybe clearing his name...

His wits and skills in order make a living for himself as well fund his quest for the truth. And so left with no choice he slowly revert back his Bounty Hunter ways.

......The Legacy.[]
Ronin with his two boys.
So it seems a new chapter is written and has begun in his unending saga that is his life.For it seems out of the shadows a new revelation comes to light. As the dust settled after the unexpected coup within the Sith ranks and learning new insights to his Masters where about. Ronin in his despair came to unintentionally end up back in Lianna, driven by some unknown urgency. He eventually makes his way towards the lone tower where once in his life he had hope to have found peace in the arms of another. Whom in the chaos that soon followed after the Republics collapse he had thought lost to him.
Suddenly appeared and rekindled the fire in his heart and longing for her, Arianna Darklighter. Only seem after a short exchange of words the truth behind her disappearance came to light. With it the realization of the fruit that was born of that one faithfully night. When worlds have seemed to collide and new hope and life sprung from the ashes....leading to them eventually heading out. The legacy of their union....Faith Darklighter Wendigo.
Of which against all odds they'd hope to keep a secret to the world know only to a chosen few her existence along with their union. They hope would never be revealed until the right time came....hide it all in the shadows. A forbidden love that they hope would stand the test of time for the year to come.
Their love withstands a test of time, within that time they have other children.....Triplets. Among them, a son, Theodorius. He would be the one to bring back the Kashi to the light .Another daughter Zeria who take after her mother seem not exhibit any force ability. And lastly another Son Jake who at birth was taken away from them by Malice Draclau. For whom he never gave up on... searched far and wide thru out the galaxy for seem so many year. Till sometime later when during one those search he eventually found and took him home. Finally fulfilling his vow and giving Arianna some closure. Knowing all their children were finally home and back in her arms. They soon did all they could to help Jake settle in with the rest of the family. But alas it seem his time with Malice had all but tainted their young son with Darkside . As such with heavy heart they agreed to send him off to be train and help by one of his Aunt Rianna closes confidant Healers. In secret and relative safety of anonymity off world.....with the hopes of perhaps preventing him to fall to the darkside much like his father before him. Of which was a fate he dare not wish to befall any of his children. Knowing all too well the price one paid for doing so from his own experience.
And not long after that came to an unexpected visit. From one who after all these years sought answers.....a secret from his past. A daughter he never knew that he had with Serena Toren...former finance he had in the past. With it the pain and sorrow of having this sin from the past come to light. Come to no less haunt and stand before him.....their daughter named Tera.
Lost....and trial ahead[]
Ronin face off with Koga.
And so it was that after seem before the storm that followed a moment of calm came over their lives. Where in the family peace was shattered by the folly of lone Sith named Koga. That took the couple hostage and thru a series of increasingly malicious trial. Where in aside from forcing his hand in participating in her torture. Least another Sith step in and do her more harm or even death. It was the revelation, of an all but secret illicit transgression he had with a vengeful former Sith apprentice names Lita Kog. Who with guile laid out before him a trap. Where in using some locals naive native she had him drugged and place under a vile spell of lust. That cause him under its spell and blinding rage. Commit to such an indiscretion act of sin against her that with shame he's force to tell her. It was then that with this revelation lay to waste their once strong union.....
Which lead to him be abandon and disowned by his own family. At which time heartbroken and alone Ronin. Then set upon a destructive path where in midst of battling the Jedi he was defeated. Broken and all but near death the Jedi healer came forward to intervene.Seeing yet some hope in him they set about the task of slowly putting him back together and mend his wound. Thru some hard work of what some might say was intrusive reconstruction of his broken soul and mind.They appeared been successful in rehabilitating the once fear Sith. To return back to their fold and be counted as one the return founder. Of the once valiant and reemergence of The Jedi Brotherhood. But to what end or how long no one could ever know or tell. For deep inside the silent wound of loose his family still festered. Year to reunite with them yet knowing it be hard fight. He no less soldiers on and under the command of the newly appointed Jedi Brotherhood leadership.......In the company of old friends and all but familiar surrounding.
He appears to slowly but surely at first to be on the path of recovery and redemption. But for how long one could not help question. For no sooner had he began to go on mission on his own. That one could not help notice how slowly strain his relationship with the other Jedi began. Where in aside from his adamant refusal to take or train any apprentice. Take off for time on end and returning whenever with fairly little explanation other than that. He was on a mission which more often than none exacted couple or so dead. Choose at most time to favor down bottle of ale. As he find drown his care be the only way to escape them.....as he in his own. Secretly set off to retrieve as much the stolen Jedi Artifacts taken during one the Sith incursion attack. That he himself participated in Naboo hope if anything else. To right the wrongs he'd felt responsible to have inflicted upon the Jedi that once called him friend.
......Passing on from the light to the shadows???[]
Ronin of present.
It was then that during his stay at the temple that he came to an unexpected meeting. With one from his past....the daughter of an old friend Bane named Jade. That somehow rekindled a deep heartfelt longing to seek out his own family. For whatever end or means he felt to leave it fate.....and so it was that soon after. While on a personal sojourn that lead him to Dagobah that red seductress of darkside past....Koga cross his path. Armed with but her poisonous sweet words spoken from seem angelic lips that she began to tempt him. Lure him if anything else to fail yet again and give in fully to the darkness within. That for the most part he desperately fought hard to keep at bay.Knowing all too well that in his weaken state and alone...there was no telling. If he could ever come back from such a fall as he once did in the past. As such the danger it entailed weighted heavily in him. Knowing all too well the toll and carnage he inflicted the last time.
But then in the midst of it all just as victory seem be at her grasp. That the underlying truth .... secret he had so carefully hid from all slowly began to unwind. And from the depth of Chaos beast appeared....come to personally claim its prize. And just as darkness seem come to finally consume the last faint light of light in him. That the cloud parted and he seem to cease to be so .....passing over to where ? Once can never tell....as it was never more self evident. The warrior in him wander yonder forever more till such time that . She who held his heart called to summon him yet again.......
For soon after by chance a lone message from an old friend Nee came thru. Called in to collect on a favor once given during their early time. Where in along with couple more other old face from the past.....Mel and Kyp. He joins them on quest for which fate seem was not by chance nor choice. In the heat of battle that ensure Ronin who come in to aid his old friend. Comes face to face with a seem silent foe is unknowing bitten by his amphistaff. Barely escaping the small band of friends on board Mel ship patch their wounds up and try regroup. At which time with the amphistaff venom slowly but surely course thru his veins. He departs their company, having repaid his debt to his old friend. He then makes his way toward Naboo....where in last ditch attempt. He tries to make amends for his past. Unsure if he could fight off the effects of the poison course thru his vein a second time. He comes into contact with another old friend in Mak......which in the trouble that followed soon after. All but drain what little fight was left in him and so in the end....as it was, in the beginning, it would seem be till the very end. That alone he face his demon and is consumed by it....final.....eternal .
Designed as much for elegance in combat as for ceremony, the lightsaber, also referred to as the "laser sword" by those who were unfamiliar with it, was a distinctive weapon, the very image of which was inextricably bound with the mythos of the Jedi Order and their polar opposites, the Sith. The lightsaber also became synonymous with either Order's values or codes. This perception endured, despite the many conflicts.
The weapon consisted of a blade of pure plasma emitted from the hilt and suspended in a force containment field. The field contained the immense heat of the plasma, protecting the wielder, and allowed the blade to keep its shape. The hilt was almost always self-fabricated by the wielder to match his or her specific needs, preferences and style. The hilt was also built similarly to his or her master's lightsaber as a mark of respect. Due to the weightlessness of plasma and the strong gyroscopic effect generated by it, lightsabers required a great deal of strength and dexterity to wield, and it was extremely difficult—and dangerous—for the untrained to attempt using. However, in the hands of an expert of the Force, the lightsaber was a weapon to be greatly respected and feared. To wield a lightsaber was to demonstrate incredible skill and confidence, as well as masterful dexterity and attunement to the Force training its wielder possessed.

Retractable Quarter Staff
Retractable Quarter Staff
The quarterstaff was a simple staff-like melee weapon of ancient design or varying lengths. Used commonly for up close or close quarter encounters. Traditionally commonly made of either natural light alloys or wood by different cultures throughout the universe. But as of late, had been know by also be made of plasteel, or synthetic composite metal alloy.
It featured prominently in certain cultures and fighting styles, such as the Echani Handmaiden sister, Lasan Honor Guard, etc. The quarterstaff also featured in Stava, a form of martial arts developed by Noghri assassins.
After a long quest in reclaiming his lost past, Ronin eventually learns a few notable things.....
(NOTE: These are my character notes .)
- His father Dra'chen Ookami, was pure blooded descendant from of House of Wendigo. One of the seven major family's clans that compromised the Royale Macheteros . One the few to have escaped the catastrophic annihilation of Kashi Dynasty. Having exiled just a few weeks before their sun went supernova for breaking one their most sacred tenets. That of harboring and giving sanctuary to a 'Offworlder' among other things.
- His father was disowned and exiled by his own family and House. For the additional crime of " Teaching and putting down into written word their ways and handing them over to an 'Offworlders' " . A Jedi explore whom he came across and rescued. When her ship accidental crash land landed in their planet while conducting a survey of the surrounding systems. .
- Within the descendants of each particular "Houses" or Family. Was taught a specific traditional and family sacred skills of the 'Breath'.That they were sworn to secrecy to uphold and keep to heart, to never pass on or teach to anyone outside of their House and those they saw unfit such as offworlder. That even in the face of ones own death that one should never dishonor this most sacred tenet oath. Which all initiate no sooner had they achieved the honor of passing the last test and task.Of proving their skills by using them against a sacrificial offworlder in a ceremony called the "Breath enlighten path" Where in they drain the sacrificial being life breath and channel to "Enlighten them " before preforming a cleansing ceremony that ends in sending off ceremony. Thus completing the sacred cycle of life and prepare them to pass it on to the next generation. Keeping their oral traditions: or what called 'The Breath' alive as Guardian of the Breath.
- As part of the training which one could possibly attain only after Mastering or reaching a certain 'Levels of Attainment’. The ability where, one could enter a trance and be granted a temporary ability of precognitive foresight. Giving one the chance to be able to fight and stand at par with a force trained individual.
- That in wielding this skill and by the influence of knowing the Guardians true name given forth and bestowed 'by Breath to destine become guardians lie the danger. Where in the Guardian could possibly fall under the influence of either the fallen son whose name herald Chaos or Beloved Daughter whose name herald Order/Life giver and keeper of the sacred breath. If only when and could one learn speak call the appointed guardians real name.Could one hold sway over them and gain their full fidelity make them their Guardian. Which along with much of their planet,tradition,local inhabitant and Kashi Mer Dynasty was lost thru time.
- "Real Name" in Basic pertains to the name give to one by the ancients. And could only be learned by a High Member of the Royale Macheteros Guardians or one skilled enough. To make the guardian bond with them and be more . Reveal it and entrust the Guardians true name to them to win the loyalty. .
- His mother was a Jedi Knight who lived and was met yet again during his exile. Living and passing one of the many colonies that scattered throughout the outer rim territories.
- Not much is know as to what happened to them afterwards and is the driving force behind Ronin personal quest find them. Searching far and wide during his own free time the universe hope to one day find the answer.
- After freeing E.L.E.G.O.S (thought be his twin but turn our be just a clone.) from his hibernation stasis. He somehow developed to reawaken the once dormant strange bond. One that has he was unaware he had to his long lost twin brother. Who from working with E.L.E.G.O.S and gaining his trust enough that the two formed a strange alliance. That somehow soon after unlock in his clone, part and bits of pieces regarding the secret about his lost twin brother.Along the plan behind his creation of which to point caused some conflict within him. That he thought about come clean to reveal it Ronin but alas. This never came to be as in moment of great danger. His clone died try to protect and save him from harm......
- Where in someway, despite great distance that separated them......Upon Ronin acceptance of mantle of Stygian Kashi Guardian. His twin brother Ruronin awaken from stasis he was place in. Returning back to have been awaken from stasis he was in seem for one. Cause one after effect or set back in him, where in Ruro connection to the force seem have been all but appear been lost.
-That due to them being Identical Twins it can be hard tell them apart. Yet due to his time in stasis Ruro looks a bit younger that Ronin.
