Name: Jedi Master Kiineq Tiran
Race: Human
Age: 50
Gender: male
Hair color: Deep chestnut with beginning streaks of silver/gray.
Eye color: Green
Height: 195
Weight: 100 kg
Home planet: Born on Chandrila, but raised in the Temple on Coruscant
Lightsaber color: green
Languages: Basic, Huttese and Durese. Understands: Shyriiwook (mostly)
Appearance: Kiineq is a very tall man, with a strong, muscular build. He has a very dignified way of carrying himself and almost radiates peace. He is in excellent physical form, a lot if it being the result of spending long hours sparring with his very energetic Padawan.
He wears a light brown tunic with slightly darker under tunic, obi and tabbards, which extends almost to his knees both in the back and in the front. His pants are light and the belt and boots are a dark reddish brown. The long robe is chocolate brown.
Kiineq's face is what most humans would call handsome, even though tell-tale signs of age is beginning to show. The bright, green eyes, in which you can almost see the depth of his wisdom, are framed by the beginnings of small wrinkles.
The still chestnut beard covers most of his lower face and is kept fairly short. His thick, deep chestnut mane of hair is streaked with silver-gray and hangs almost to his shoulders. It is kept away from his face with a band collecting most of it in the back (Qui-Gon style).
Personality: If life was a hurricane, Kiineq would be the calm center.
He is a very patient man, though his patience is often tried by his rather wild young Padawan.
Kiineq will go to almost any length for his Padawan, though he is quite strict at times.
Despite his position and his height, which tend to make him seem rather intimidating, he has a way of making most people feel at ease in his company.
He is a brilliant swordsman, yet he often prefers to keep his fights verbal rather than physical. But make no mistake, he will prove a formidable opponent if you were to engage him in battle.
If time allows it he will always do a thorough research in preparation for missions, learning all he can about the planet and people in question.
Background: Born on Chandrila, Kiineq was discovered at an early age and brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant where he spend his years as a youngling.
At the age of 12 he was chosen as Padawan by Master Toran Daa, a Zabrak. Kiineq proved an adept student in both lightsaber combat and the more quite subjects required.
He was always very patient, a trait that helped him a great deal when the pair was negotiating on different missions. Whenever they were staying in the Temple, Kiineq would spend long hours studying languages and the history of the Jedi, both of which he still finds endlessly interesting.
Kiineq was knighted at the age of 24.
For the next few years he would go on solo missions but from time to time join up with his old Master, a thing both of them greatly appreciated.
Kiineq took his first Padawan at the age of 30, a Cathar named Jurina Mirall. Much to Kiineq's joy he found that he really liked teaching. It was a pleasure for him to see the young girl grow and learn and he learned a great deal about himself too. A couple of years before Jurina was knighted, Kiineq was promoted to Master and offered a place on the Jedi Council. After some consideration he accepted. He is often the one to keep a realistic view on things, his patience and knowledge of the Jedi history often proving a valuable asset in most discussions. When people tend to get carried away, Kiineq will be the one to get them back on topic. Jurina was knighted after almost 13 years of apprenticeship.
He then spent a few years alone, occasionally doing missions together with his former Padawan, much like he and his own Master had done. But he missed the constant company of an apprentice and then took the 11-years-old Shep Azoras as his Padawan.
The boy was a very energetic youngling, and it was believed that a Master with Kiineq's experience and patience would be the best for him. Kiineq had noticed the boy early and seen a challenge in turning the wild youngling into a Knight.
In the beginning the two had a fair amount of clashes as Shep seemed to constantly push the limits to see exactly how far he could go and what would happen if he crossed the line. However, it didn't take long before Shep realized that Kiineq was both able and willing to put him in his place if he crossed the limits. That seemed to calm the Padawan down somewhat. It also helped that the Master was able to keep up with the boy and give him room to get plenty of exercise as well as giving him plenty of challenges with his studies.
During their years together the Master and Padawan have developed a very close relationship, like a father and son. They share a very strong bond and are able to communicate with each other, not just emotions, but also small conversations, through the bond.
