Biography

Upbringing

Myrddin was Orphaned on Dac when his parents were killed, he spent only a year in an orphanage before running away and electing to live in the sea, this is where his force ability first manifested, he was able to foresee the Krakana's approach and flee the area before he was endangered, his naturally aggressive nature developed here. Before long Myrddin became an effective hunter and a stealthy combatant. His life continued this way until the day that he saw a small human child that had fallen in the water and was in danger of drowning, by this time Myrddin was a stout 15 years old, acting quickly he grabbed the child, but his troubles were not over with yet, the child's thrashing had attracted a Krakana to the area and Myrddin with nothing but a fighting pike managed to kill the massive beast and keep the child at the surface, this act of bravery, and honor earned him the respect of the Mon Calamari Knights, and with their assistance he enrolled in Coruscant Central University's school of Medicine

Medicine and Military

After earning his MD, and specializing in Surgical medicine, he was given a choice, he could put his talents to use with the military, or go into private practice, at merely 22 years old, he wanted to do as much good as possible and he became a shipboard physician and rose through the ranks, earning Commander in just under 4 years, at this time there was a battle involving pirates and Myrddin's Hospital ship the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser Tearful Soul The pirates attempted to raid the large but poorly armed starship, Myrddin skillfully use the far more numerous tractor beams the ship had to trap the pirate ship and force its surrender, after this he was given command of the much larger Hospital ship Mon Delino which was an Old MC-104 that had been re-purposed for hospital duties but still carried its original armament, making the ship able to fly into dangerous hostile territory unescorted and fight its way to friendly space with a full load of wounded. Myrddin was soon called upon to use this ships full abilities when a mission came up for the purposes of this mission he had an escort in the form of 6 Lancer Frigates, he was to fly to the ancient world Korriban and extract the wounded soldiers, however when he arrived in system his frigates were quickly neutralized by opposing Sith forces, the young Mon Calamari skilfully maneuvered his ship into a direct launching position over the planet, the evacuation shuttles headed for the planet under the cover of skillful Laser fire and tractor beam deployment, Myrddin then took his ship on a running battle around the systems outer planets and made a loop back to Korriban proper, in what was described as the most daring move ever made by a hospital ship, Myrddin quickly retrieved all shuttles and activated his Hyperdrive while still in the gravity well of the planet, this cause massive damage to the internal structure of the Mon Delino while the ship did escape, the ship had to be abandoned and still drifts 3.8 parsec's from Korriban, after this Myrddin elected to leave the military having grown tired of the responsibility over others he was 32 at the time

Praxeum

Myrddin came to the Praxeum academy on Coruscant attempting to find peace, he was then informed of his latent Force ability, being most shocked, he considered his reality for some time and finally decided to take up the offer and legacy of the Jedi, he began his training under Mantis Grebe some time later and for 3 years learned everything he could from the Wookiee Master, in this time he became extremely skilled in Forms III and IV, he practiced daily and found a peace he had never before experienced, a peace that manifested when he used the force to aid his abilities in Ataru to leap, spin and jump beyond all normal means, his constant practice of the form gained him many insights into it that had once been lost to time, several techniques such as the radical spinning attacks that had not been seen since Jedi of the Old Republic came naturally to him, in time he had grown to master the Form Myrddin's ability was so great that he was able to Defeat fellow Padawan Leon and Tank Price in a 2 vs 1 battle, and hold his own against Mass Questi in single combat. under Mantis Myrddin also learned the beginnings of force healing which he would later put to very good use. Myrddin's surgical abilities were soon needed at Praxeum, one of the masters had been gravely injured, and the Lady Maya the resident Healer, was nowhere to be found so Myrddin took up the practice of medicine and preformed emergency surgery on Master Victor Brody, after this time Myrddin took an active role in the medical day to day affairs of the Praxeum. Myrddin also witnessed the fall of two Padawans during his time at Praxeum, the first to fall was Mathew, during one of Mathew's visits to the temple Myrddin and him exploded into a huge battle and a stalemate both members being injured, Myrddin learned quickly after this incident and he was far better prepared for the fall of his dearest friend Leon, this Truncated battle would start a long history of constant battling between Myrddin and Leon now known as Malus. Myrddin would also meet Tyan Auk and Miratae Avro (Mira) both Adrolan Shapeshifters whom Myrddin would form a lasting Bond with, especially Little Mira whom he became very protective over and watched like a little sister

The Fall Of Coruscant

One evening Myrddin was awoken by a thunderous crash, he moved quickly to ascertain what had happened, when he stepped out of his quarters on Coruscant he found himself face to face with a massive hole in the face of the temple. a meteor had impacted the temple and many others were smashing into the precinct area, Myrddin quickly triggered his ships beckon call and ran through the temple attempting to download all the medical information as well as a large portion of the archives into this ship in order to preserve it, he also managed to gather one artifact from the temple. after the download was completed he was assigned a detachment of younglings and gathered them aboard his Modified YT-2000 freighter The Venix in his escape the Venix was heavily damaged and the entire portside airlock was rendered useless, but he and the younglings escaped the destruction of the temple by meteors, all the Praxeum Jedi were to meet up on Yavin IV home of the Kalway Order of Jedi, who offered us shelter. sadly Cade Renard had been badly injured in the escape and it took Myrddin, Natirra, And Zavarah Zabelin to bring him back from the brink of death, it was this act that spurred Myrddin's close relationship with the Kalway order and its medical staff

The Station

During Myrddin's time on Vornskyr station he began to hone his skill with Ataru even further, melding Sokan philosophy and learning to smoothly coordinate from Ataru's Pure Aggression to the near passivity of Soresu, creating a unique ability to switch so fast that one moment he could be in a furious barrage of trikes and the next be an unmoving sphere of Azure fire, defending from all that came into his path. Myrddin's ability was so great that he became known as The Master Of Ataru, and granted permission to carry an Electrum hilt of his own design, this new blade contained a crystal that Created A glowing white Blade, pretty soon Myrddin began to wander the galaxy helping all those that he could, it is here where his abilities with Ataru truly became well known, often times his main nemesis Malus would engage him in a furious duel, he himself managing to become a powerful Sith Lord in his own right would often stalemate Myrddin, when Myrddin returned finally to the station he found that the Praxeum order has waned significantly in his absence, and began to doubt his future there, but he had other things to worry about with an attack on the station Myrddin was once again forced to watch as his home died, he fled with Mira once more to Yavin IV

Yavin IV and Death

Myrddin resided on Yavin 4 doing medical work for the KOJ, however a terrible accident involving a friend of his caused him to make the ultimate sacrifice, Kitten Sabra had been grievously injured and Myrddin seeing no other alternative used all of his strength and power to heal her at the cost of his own life, this act gained him the option to become a force ghost and he faded into the force. his will was to be Executed by his close Friend from Medical school Bant Tyran who did so perfectly, Myrddin Willed that Mira Be given the Mon Delino II a MC-104 that Myrddin had been refurbishing for quite some time. he also willed the Venix to Bant, and his Electrum Lightsaber was willed to Mass Questi who Myrddin Respected more than most Jedi

Rebirth and Change of Path

Myrddin would not stay dead for long, he was revived by a collaborative efforts of many of the Praxeum masters and Walt Finesmith who using the force in a most extreme application rebuilt his genetic structure and gave him a new body to inhabit and forcibly drew him back into the body, this process left him weakened and forced to heal for almost a month, until he was as vital as before. Myrddin quickly regained his Mastery Of Ataru and Retrieved his Electrum lightsaber from Mass Questi. however Myrddin had been changed while in deep communion with the force, he came to accept the grey Jedi way of life, he also became a wanderer, often going off on a whim only guided by the living force, as a wanderer he often came into contact with dangerous situations. Myrddin would rarely draw his blade but when he did people noticed, soon rumors began to circulate about a hooded Force user with a White blade. Myrddin learned much in this time and soon returned to finish his training on Yavin IV under Natirra, a Jedi Knight who he had worked closely with on many occasions, but he still retained his view of the force and his Grey Path, though he did not often discuss it unless pressed.

The Wandering Knight and Taking a Padawan

Myrddin felt the living force pull him telling him to go out into the galaxy, a wish he heeded and took the name the Wandering Knight he became part of a group of seven people, these seven people included a nightsister, two Jedi, Myrddin and three Sith. This group was compelled to in an overwhelming nature by the force to uncover an ancient Gravitic Mass drive. After this task had been completed the force's influence ceased and the three sith in the group truned on the rest killing the jedi and the nightsister However myrdin's skill with Ataru allowed him to kill the three sith, but this bonding experience revealed special abilities in each of the seven, Myrddin the grey one gained an unlimited Lifespan, the jedi gained intense analytical skill. The nightsister gained the ability to become invisible in all spectrums as well as the force. The sith gained far superior strength and telekenetic abilites. however most of the abilities were only tested in battle against the sith only Myrddin's ability remained unknown until he realised that he wasnt aging, after he visited the archives on Ruusan to ascertain what had happened to him, he gathered that only one other jedi in history had displayed similar attributes, Fay. after his revelation that he had literally all the time in the world to teach and to learn he set out for many years seeking out troubled areas in the galaxy and working with the people of the galaxy, not always directly a word here, a better option presented there. however great troubles for the galaxy had been brewing at the time and soon it would become clear that Myrddin could not remain outside the mainstream forever, with the urging of the living force he boarded his shuttle Calamari Star and headed back to Coruscant

Ancient Order of the Whills

Master Of The Order

Myrddin rose to the Rank of Master of the Order in the [The Ancient Order Of The Whills‎‎|Order of the Whills]] and gained the abilities and rank of Shaman of the Whills. it was under his leadership that The Ancient order came once more into the light and actively acted to maintain the balance of Light and dark. Myrddin was faced with many hard challenges in this time including deciding to directly oppose the "Sovereign Knights" and the "Kings crew". Myrddin was accompanied into the order by his close friend Turis and Geno. along with his Old Friend Tank Price from Praxeum and his nearly two century old friend Bant Tyran. All of whom have reached the rank of Grey Knight. Their contributions have made the order stronger so it can easily act to maintain the balance also in this time Myrddin Re-acuired an Ancient Heirloom of his family, an orginal Jedi Katana nearly 6000 years old. this blade is adorned with an ivory Handle in the shape of a sea Dragon. the Saya for the blade is red with an adorned electrum fitting on its end, the Tsuba is also a designed piece of Electrum. it took Myrddin almost 3 months to reassemble the blade from its disassembled state. As a force forged blade it can block a lightsaber and absorb blaster bolts, however it cannot reflect them. the Ancient blade was originally created by an ancestor of Myrddin and lost to the family for a geat deal of time until Myrddin Found it on Hoth. the order once more found a headquarters on naboo, in a temple alongside the Servants of the Force. from here Myrddin continued to follow the grey way and once more came into close contact with his first master Mantis grebe. during this time Myrddin had no padawan but rather chose to allow the teaching to be done by younger members of the order and to focus on the changing times he was in.



Battle over yavin

shortly thereafter Myrddin heard a distress call coming from yavin from his old allies the KOJ, he immeidiatley ordered every available Mon Calamari Star cruiser to yavin , however due to heavy losses during war the Fleet reached a Paltry four ships. even with the odds against them the fleet departed for yavin at maximum speed, the newest cruiser Mon Crusade having provisional command of the fleet until myrddin could get his own aging crusier Mon Galamine into the fight and take command. the battle over yavin was intense, the Mon Karren being quickly destroyed by the Star destroyers and the Mon Relina ramming one of the destroyers just as the Mon Galamine arrived, the Mon Galamine and the Mon Crusade bombarded the remaining two destroyers with their heavy guns severely damaging both of them before the Mon Galamine herself was disabled and the Mon Crusade was forced to retreat. the Mon Galamine was being pulled into Yavin IV's gravity well on a ballisic tragectory, Myrddin ordered all hands to abandon ship as he feverently tried to aim the ship into an unpopulated area of the planet, he waited as lon g as he could aboard ship before boarding his Shuttle Edict and shooting away from the burning wreckage of his once proud flagship


Winds Of Change

Faced with feelings of obsoleteness Myrddin spent much time away from the temple. most often he was on Dac managing the Central Dac Shipbuilding company bringing several new Mon calamari curisers onto the galactic playing feild. the first MC-75 star cruiser to be finished the Mon Eliptia was taken by Myrddin as his New Flagship, replacing the ship he had lost at Yavin. Myrddin lived out of that ship using it as his main means of transport and his only real home. the Powerful MC-75 class ships became a Fleet mainstay and one variant was even turned into a hospital ship. Myrddin also took it upon himself to upgrade the aging MC-40 class, the new design refit the ships with greater firepower than before in addition to repulsorlifts developed orginally for the MC-75 class allowing the ships to enter atmosphere. during his travels Myrddin met another Mon Calamari and there are rumors of a romantic relationship between the two males. Myrddin eventually realized that his order needed him and he returned to the galactic scene and began searching for a worthy student.

The Resurgent Need

After many months of construction effort Myrddin was approached by the Galactic alliance who requested the design of several new ships and the use of the newest design of Mon Calamari the Scythe class Main battlecruiser. this along with the subsequent design of the Admiral class, the Dentritus Battleship, and the Advent Class Star Dreadnought meant that in addition to revamping and uprading the design of the MC-75, and MC-40 to include the technologies developed for the Advent sufficent firepower would be provided to the Galactic alliance to patrol its borders and fight a war should the need arise. Myrddin Worked tirelessly on the ships even providing a show of force with the immensely powerful Scythe class main battlecruiser (the largest ship at the time that could enter the atmosphere) at a trial making a point of the military might that the Mon calamari brought to bear. however this was not to last as the galactic alliance became unstable due to internal turmoils and began to break up Myrddin vowed that his ships would not be involved in a civil war and using the untested hyperdrive of advent and the crews on the other vessels to jump immediatley to the Kathalon system and requested asylum for the fleet contacting his old friend the Tetan Empress to protect and scatter what was the largest fleet that had been gathered since the battle of Bastion more than fifty years earlier. the Shadow fleet consisting of the elite strike ships was sent to the outer rim with the bulk of the fleet scattered between the tetan empire, Dac herself, Harrun Kal, and the Maw installation. it was also during this tima that Myrddin Suffered a falling out with the jedi and fully returned to his grey path, taking up once again the role of a Shaman of the Whills and the Master Elementalist.

Personality

Myrddin Can often Be Crass, and Grumpy with people but if you get to know him he can become a warm loyal friend. he will die for his friends and has done so once. Myrddin is aggressive in nature and it shows in all aspects of his life, he also is very reserved and often uses silence as a second language. Myrddin is very sensitive about the subject of Raze, and the Fall of Coruscant, it is unwise to press the issue with the Mon Calamari. Myrddin in combat will often test his foe with Soresu techniques, but when he gains an open ground advantage he will strike with a whirlwind of Ataru moves becoming little more than a blur around his enemies,

Lightsabers

Myrddin has several lightsabers, most of them built recently and coated with Electrum, he also possesses a curved hilt saber with a green blade, an Electrum saber which he built after his Mastery of Ataru which has a white blade, his last saber is a lightscythe he built for the express purpose of battling those with lightwhips and for jungle work because of its ability to clear large amounts of brush Myrddin, as a Mon Calamari has the dexterity to use a lightsaber underwater and as such all of his lightsabers are modified to work underwater.

Apparel

Myrddin is often seen in his old tan robes, but when on call in Medical he is normally wearing his Lab coat, Myrddin posess a set of modern Mon Calamari Knight Armor that he wears when he expects a fierce battle. Myrddin normally wears either a white or grey overcloak that he had a specific fold that conceals his lightsaber from view sewn in. These cloaks are made of woven Whaladon Baleen which is nigh frictionless and makes almost no sound allowing Myrddin to very quietly move about

Lightsaber Forms

Myrddin utilizes several forms but most prominently Ataru, in secondary he utilizes Soresu, Juyo, and a Jar'kai variant of Ataru. Soresu was his first study finding it useful he continued to practice it but he later found Ataru to fit him better and went on later to master it, his Juyo training came from careful observation of Mass Questi who Mastered Juyo's more powerful variant Vaapad, Myrddin created his own functional style of Juyo. Eventually Myrddin's use of Ataru Outshone all of the other Forms he practiced and he was Recognized as the Master Of Ataru

Starships

Myrddin owns several starships including a YT-2000 called Venix, an action VI transport known as Fish bowl, he also owns a shuttle with which he uses as an offical transport of the Order, he owns another shuttle that was directly attached to his Flagship the Mon Eliptia and now is assigned to the Fire of Dac.
