[+] Drive to Learn – Alexei has always pushed himself to learn and excel, whether that be with abilities in the Force or just physical abilities and training.

[-] Warlust – Alexei has found rebirth on the battlefield and can sometimes find himself lost in combat.
[-] Proud – Alexei is a proud individual and has a belief that he is much greater than many of those around him.


History: Alexei started his life being born into what should have been a life of leisure and luxury. His father was a very rich merchant who had left Panatha behind on a grand adventure, seeking fortune and glory. In the wider galaxy, his father found all that and more. His father didn’t know much about the galaxy at large seeing as their species were usually only found in their little corner of the galaxy but one thing that did stick with him was the abilities of the Jedi. He had seen their displays on a rare occasion and had been filled with awe but also fear. So when his son started to show signs that he was naturally gifted in the Force Alexei’s father wasn’t sure what to do. Soon enough though he reached out to the Jedi Temple and had them come to take his son away. It was a hard choice but he knew that he couldn’t give Alexei everything he needed to be able to control his powers.

Alexei came into the Jedi Order as an initiate who didn’t know much about the Jedi at all. He had been taught about his own people by his father, about their militaristic outlook on life, and their adoration of art and culture. So taking that into account Alexei decided he would put his all into learning of something that his father had even said he had no knowledge of. For Alexei, if he became very learned of the Jedi Ways then maybe his father would end up taking him back in the future. These thoughts are what pushed Alexei forward and kept him grounded. These kinds of thoughts would usually keep many from advancing as it was an obvious connection to his family that could possibly corrupt him but for Alexei his mind was shielded. He was one of the many Epicanthix that had a natural unconscious talent to shield their minds from Force-Assisted abilities.

And so he learned hard and while many saw him as a much interested and loyal initiate for Alexei it was more distanced. He learned all that he could and tried his hardest yet always felt a disconnect between him and the other Jedi Initiates. Many didn’t really remember their parents and many more didn’t care. For Alexei though his father and his father’s approval was something that drove him forward. Eventually, he took the Initiate Trials and passed before being taken on as an apprentice to a Jedi Master named Sifo-Dyas. Alexei found that his new master was much more unorthodox than other Jedi knew and came to respect him greatly. The man was able to predict and foretell many things and slowly took on an almost fatherly figure for him.

After years of learning underneath Sifo-Dyas something unexpected happened. His Master spoke of some great war that was coming and seemed greatly disturbed by it. As things came to a head it resulted in his master being stripped from his position on the High Council. At the same time, Alexei was raised up to the position of a Jedi Knight and soon his master disappeared. Alexei felt much anger towards the High Council after the whole ordeal but kept the burning sensations hidden deep within his chest. That was when he lost any kind of trust in the High Council and fractures started to form upon his being part of the Jedi Order.

Soon enough the Invasion of Naboo occurred and Alexei took this as a sign that the great war his old master had told him of was really going to happen. Just like all the other times, he was right about his predictions. Faced with the realization that a war is going to happen and his Master had said that the Republic would need an army Alexei decided that it was time to leave the Order. He did not want to stick with the foolish High Council and fall with the Empire when they could have just listened to his Master and avoided all this. For the next few years, Alexei took missions that would take him farther and farther from the Temple for longer periods of time before finally at the beginning of the Separatist Crisis Alexei just never came back.

He remained watching in the shadows as the war erupted and knew that he wanted to fight but he wouldn’t fight for a High Council made up of fools. He flocked to the banner of the Confederacy and was brought before Count Dooku where he was accepted and made into a Commander. He fought against the Republic and its Clones, even facing the Jedi that he had once called Brothers and Sisters if only in name. In truth, Alexei had always kept the Order an arm’s length away and now in this war that was raged, he felt like he could truly show himself for the first time. He crafted himself a new lightsaber with some help from Dooku so as to have a burning red color, to fully signify his separation from that old life. He continued to fight from then on, a fallen Jedi who reveled in war and found a sense of rebirth within it.

With the latest events that unfolded through Alexei has found that the situation has gotten quite unstable. With Dooku dead and a new leader decided for the Confederacy it still seems like the war will continue to rage on just as Alexei would like. For each passing day of warfare makes him feel just a little bit more alive and wanting more and sometimes something new.
