Character History
Early Life
Itshim was only a little whelp when his mother got taken away from his side. A Mandalorian named B'arin managed, with the aid of many Mandalorian soldiers, to overtake the city named Kuzil. The Cathar living in that city fought bravely but many male species died and females were taken to become slaves. This included Itshim's mother.
This was the first time Itshim felt The Darkness within him.
When the Mandalorians left Kuzil, the remaining young Cathar grouped together. Itshim saw some die, some survived by scavenging bodies of those who died and searching the partly destroyed houses for food.
Puberty
At the time Itshim hit puberty he was on Kashyyyk under the care of a Wookiee named Nagbecca.
Nagbecca was crew-member of a Trading-Ship that made an emergency landing close to Kuzil. In Itshim's city, or at least the remains of it, Nagbecca searched for reparation-parts for the ship. He found them, as he found Itshim also.
Itshim didn't have much strength left, he hadn't eaten for several days. The nearly dead Cathar was taken by the Wookiee and they became friends.
It was Nagbecca that gave Itshim his Ryyk Blade as a token of their friendship.
Becoming adult
- "This is your hrrtayyk, get ready!"
- ―Nagbecca
Being on Kashyyyk and being seen as one of the Wookiee, Itshim had to take part in a coming-of-age ceremony. Although he was Cathar, after his Test of Ascention, Itshim's inner strenght and rage were almost equal to those of a male Wookiee.
With the growing Darkness within Itshim, the Wookiee could no longer control him. They made him leave Kashyyyk. Now Itshim started travelling from planet to planet.
39ABY-...
At the age of 21, Itshim joined The Brotherhood. He joined the order of the Krath and was assigned to Clan Tarentum. In the Clan he met Pel, a powerfull and wise human, who was willing to become the Cathar's Master.
Within the Brotherhood
As Pel was asked to meet Samael Ozriel, Itshim (being Pel's Apprentice) joined them. Sam was the Leader of Battleteam Inmortuae and after a while, going on several missions, Itshim fell in favor with him. The Cathar became Battleteam Sergeant.
One day Sam went missing and Itshim claimed his quarters, making himself Battleteam Leader. He immediatly anounced that changes were at hand.
Physical Description
Itshim is a muscular male cat-like humanoid. His entire body is covered in dark-brown fur and on his head he has light brown thick manes, nearly covering his shoulders. Rising up between those manes: two big, pointy ears. The right ear has a triangular rupture, a wound he got during his hrrtayyk ceremony. The eyes of the Cathar are intense green, the left-one is concealed with an eyepatch, no one knows what happened to that eye and no one dares to ask.

DL-18 Blaster Pistol
Bought for the price of 750 credits. When Itshim found out he was charged a whole lot to much, he killed the individual who sold it to him.
Neuronic Whip
The weapon of the Mandalorian that enslaved Itshim's mother. Itshim managed to find and kill him.
