Birth name: Tahn Karida
Rank: Sith Incipient
Species: Miraluka
Age: 22
Known Background
A Miraluka of unknown origins taken into custody approximately [REDACTED] ago, after the civilian vessel dubbed the [REDACTED] was intercepted on the fringes of Sith space. Records suggest he was initially classified as a criminal tied to acts of piracy and illicit transport of contraband. The innate connection to the Force he possesses was detected during the processing procedure, along with the identification of his species, at which point he was remanded to Korriban for further evaluation.
His performance during his acolyte trials was notable for his adaptability and an unnerving aptitude for reading opponents through his natural gift of Force Sight. He’s been known to play into the facade of a blind man when the need arises, though potentially a habit ingrained in his years aboard the Vahlan vessel that is yet to be corrected.
Reports describe him as calculating, pragmatic and manipulative. He demonstrates a strong academic interest in lightsaber theory, historical Sith methodology, and the philosophical underpinnings of power, but has yet to demonstrate conviction in where he wants to place his talents.
Since elevation from acolyte status, Tahn has aligned himself with the powerbase of Darth Vehemen. His past remains partially redacted, his motivations largely unknown, and his loyalty, while apparently firm, is mercenary in nature.
Known Skills & Expertise
Tahn’s martial skill isn’t one of brute strength or feats of raw power, instead it’s marked by precision, provocation, and psychological disruption. He enters engagements as though they’re a battle of wits instead of one of skill. He possesses the disciplined fundamentals of bladework but it is his attempts of goading, manipulation and deception that throw the tempo of conflict into disarray.
His greatest strengths when facing an opponent are demonstrated through his patience and research of the enemy. If granted an appropriate amount of time to study an adversary, he dismantles their composure with the insight gained. This methodical approach is negated when facing an unknown adversary or one of stronger will but in situations where this arises, he defaults back to the fundamentals.
He is yet to master any particular form, but he studies with intensity and an eye for how each technique may serve his preferred method of dominating the ego of an opponent to his advantage. He is not burdened by the restraints of honour or shamed by cowardice, when the result is victory or death.
However, Tahn’s talents lean away from the pursuit of flawless technique and his ambition resides elsewhere. The shaping of the force and the mysteries it offers are what beckons to him most, favouring techniques that sharpen the senses, warp perceptions and leave the mind disturbed, rather than those capable of outright overwhelming force and destructive power.
