CALEN”The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded.”
Name: Calen
Nickname:
Age: 70
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Birth Place: Coruscant
Height and Weight: 6'0" and 158 lbs.
Faction: Light
Rank/Occupation: Grand Master”They say the Force can do terrible things to a mind. It can wipe away your memories and destroy your very identity.”
Appearance:
Calen's most notable feature is his long hair, which is often tied back in a tail. He sports a beard and his eyes are known to be intense and piercing often giving the impression that he knows the innermost thoughts of those who converse with him.
Possessions: Only his lightsaber, a journal and a holocron of his own making.
Spoken and Understood Languages: Basic, Huttese, Shyriiwook, Mando'a, various trade languages.
Personality: Stern but kind, tough but fair, wise but humble. It is perhaps only logical that the Grand Master of the Order embody it's ideal. Quite a handful in his youth, many of the older members of the order remember him as a spirited Padawan who had a knack for always charging in recklessly and often getting into trouble. Age and many wars have mellowed him and given him a great deal of insight and experience.
Over time, Calen has become known as one of the greatest diplomats of the Order. His mere presence seems to calm and sooth those around him. He enjoys teaching and has been known to joke or tease younger Jedi but always with some lesson to impart. Despite his gentle nature he is some-what old fashioned and a firm believer in following the Code to the letter.
In conflict he is surprisingly sly and quite agile despite his advanced age. While he prefers to solve most problems without igniting his lightsaber he has been described as 'a quiet storm' by those that have witnessed him in action.
History: Like many Jedi, Calen was taken into the Order very soon after his birth. He has no memory of his birth-parents and has never felt the need to pry into his own past. As an initiate, he had difficulty in becoming a Padawan due to his rambunctious behavior and trouble-maker's reputation. In time, however, he found a Master with the patience to teach him and the insight into his potential. Still, it was many years before he would learn the benefits of calm, rational consideration.
Having had many a wild adventure in his younger days, Calen eventually found a hidden talent for diplomacy and acting as arbiter in disputes. He had an uncanny knack for uncovering the truth in peoples words and in situations as well as a deft hand at steering otherwise heated discussions. Numerous treaties bear his name as witness and many wars had been averted due to his efforts.
By the time Revan became more commonly known among the Order, Calen had risen to the rank of Master some time ago and now held a seat on the High Council of the Jedi. Being a traditionalist and somewhat conservative in his views, he was one of those that opposed taking sides in the Mandalorian Wars and disagreed with Revan's insistence on taking action. While he could understand the young Jedi's point of view Calen was concerned by disturbances in the Force that seemed centered around the conflict. All of his meditations served to reinforce this believe that somewhere in this battle against the Mandalorians there was some great tragedy waiting to be sparked and that it somehow involved the Jedi. It was around this time that the current Grand Master stepped down, being lead by the Force to believe that it was time to retire. Calen was nominated by Vandar Tokare and was voted in as the Grand Master of the Order.
Since that time, Calen has sought to lead his brethren in the path closest to the Force and serve the Galaxy as best he is able.
”There was something lurking out there, something that devoured Revan and Malak - and many other Jedi.”
