- "The path I walk is paved with the corpses of the people that I have killed."
- ―Roxas
Roxas is a dedicated Mandalorian warrior, who eventually learned the Force after the death of his friends and family. He fell to the dark side and was waiting to be tried by the Jedi until he escaped. He then joined the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. His only reason for using the Force is to get revenge for the death of his Mandalorian Clan. Roxas is currently the battle team leader of The Regulators and bartender of The Crossroads.
Before the Brotherhood
Childhood
- "Buurenaar sounds like a name you'd give to a dragon or something."
- ―Methyas Pepoi L'eonheart
Roxas was born on the planet Mandalore, to Clan Buurenaar. His parents were never warriors, but it is in their blood, for his grandparents were warriors in their youth. Although his parents had never been apart of that life they wanted their son to be a warrior, so when he was still a child they sent him to the jungle moon of Onderon known as Dxun, where many Mandalorians are trained to be warriors.
Mandalorian Training
Roxas was born for the Mandalorian training, he loved every second of it. With his clan he accomplished a multitude of missions. He successfully accomplished many bounty, assassination, and mercenary missions, receiving praise from his teachers. His clan was hired for many small wars and skirmishes. Due to this fact Roxas is an extremely skilled warrior. By the time he was thirteen he was extremely knowledgeable of combat techniques and tactics because of that he was usually given missions where he worked alone, for this reason his comrades called him "Wolf" and even made a symbol for him to wear on his armor. He wears this symbol on the right shoulder of his armor.
Listening To The Force
Like other Mandalorian that are believed to be Force Sensitive he ignored his feelings. During his time on Dxun, he was hunting and walked upon a dark place in the jungle. The area was ancient, it looked like animals went there to die, but it didn't smell like death. He walked around this ancient dark place amazed by it. While in that ancient and evil place he could feel an immense cold, it was so powerful that he could not ignore it, he believed that he was experiencing the Force for the first time. He never told his Clan. He decided he would not use the Force in combat, for fear of being outcast from his clan. He tried his best to ignore the Force, but it grew increasingly difficult.
A Warrior On His Own
The End Of His Clan
When he was fifteen his clan was hired as mercenaries to end a war between rival companies. The company that Clan Buurenaar was working for was legally producing and selling bacta, while their rivals were synthesizing it illegally and were selling it cheaper. The war waged taking a huge financial toll on both companies. Roxas's employer wanted the war over immediately, and asked the Jedi to end the conflict so that they could try diplomatic methods to resolve the problems. The Jedi Council sent a knight and an apprentice to investigate. The rival company ,which was a front for a Dark Jedi received information from one of their spies that their enemy had asked the Jedi for help and informed their Dark Jedi friend of the situation. The Dark Jedi came to the aid of the company, killing most of Roxas's clan; while Roxas was away gathering supplies; which left the Jedi to handle the Dark Jedi. The Dark Jedi had little trouble killing the knight. The apprentice trying his best just wasn't enough, so Roxas using a sword made of Mandalorian Iron joined the battle, to avenge his fallen comrades. After an extremely intense battle Roxas was severally wounded. The Dark Jedi could feel the Force flowing through the Mandalorian, but feeling that the Mandalorian needed training before he could be of any use decided to let him live, hoping to one day take him as an apprentice. The Dark Jedi was able to escape the planet virtually unscathed. The death of his clan members left Roxas as the only trained warrior of his clan. Roxas was taken to Mandalore to heal and recuperate. The war over, the apprentice, believing that Roxas would make a great jedi and tried to convince Roxas to come with him to Coruscant to be trained as a Jedi, but the proud Mandalorian would have no part in it. Roxas had more important things on his mind, like finding the Dark Jedi and avenging his Clan. Roxas had the symbol given to him by his clan tattooed on his right bicep as a way to remember his fallen comrades.
Looking For Revenge
Roxas fully healed left Mandalore and headed for the company that hired the Dark Jedi. He killed every armed person that got in his way, essentially killing his way to the CEO, but not without his fair share of injuries. They employees were so frightened that they asked the nearby Jedi Enclave for help, and they sent help immediately. Roxas reached the CEO and tortured him until he told Roxas where to find the Dark Jedi, Nar Shadaa. Knowing where to go Roxas killed the CEO, and headed for his ship. On his way to his ship he was confronted by the Jedi that was sent to help. The Jedi asked him to come peacefully, but Roxas ordered the Jedi out of his way. This lead to a fight and Roxas was subdued and captured. The Jedi took Roxas before the Jedi Council and explained that Roxas had killed the entire company and resisted arrest. The Jedi Council decided that Roxas would be held in imprisonment until he was given a proper trial. While Roxas was imprisoned the Jedi apprentice that he met in the war came to visit him and after learning of what happened decided to help Roxas escape. The apprentice let the Mandalorian out of his Force cage and gave him a data pad that contained the layout of the temple. Roxas was seen trying to escape and the apprentice stepped in by fighting the Jedi that saw Roxas, giving the Mandalorian time to escape. Roxas doesn't know what ever happened to that Jedi apprentice, but presumes him dead.
Falling To The Darkside
Exploring The DarkSide
After escaping the Jedi he headed for Nar Shadaa, all the while training him self in the Force. While there Roxas found the Dark Jedi and confronted him. Roxas eventually chased the Dark Jedi to a landing platform and the ferocious battle continued, Roxas attempting to kill the Dark Jedi used a thermal detonator destroying the landing platform and injuring himself in the process. Though the landing platform was destroyed the Dark Jedi escaped. Unknown to Roxas the landing platform was owned by local slavers, who wanted compensation for their platforms destruction. Roxas being injured they took him as a slave. The slavers realizing that Roxas was a Mandalorian didn't sell him, instead they tortured him and kept him in a cage for nearly a whole year. One day his captives were attacked by rival slavers and his cage was damaged. After kicking the cage for a while the door of it fell off and Roxas using the battle as a cover escaped. Being in captivity altered his psyche to the point that he is extremely violent to those who disagree with him, though when he gets to know a person he calms down and is more collected with his demeanor. Though some people, he won't get to know, because his temper will lead him to hate the person to the point where he will stop acknowledging them, and eventually attempt to kill them. Roxas will wait and bide his time until he knows that he can kill the person and even waits for the proper time before actually attempting to kill them.
The Dark Jedi Brotherhood
After escaping the slavers he wandered the galaxy until he found the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, and decided to join so he could learn what the Jedi didn't teach him. When he joined the Brotherhood Roxas was twenty years old. He joined Clan Naga Sadow as an Obelisk. He was a member of the Night Raptors battle team, until unfortunate circumstances the battle team was disbanded. In 33 ABY all the Clans were downsized into houses and the Houses were downsized into battle teams.
The Brotherhood
Unrest In The City
Aeotheran (33ABY)
Terrorists had been threatening the Dlarit Corporation owned by Tron Sadow. After receiving the transmission Roxas had a lot of catching up to do to reach his Clan, as he was still in Sadow Palace training. With a little luck he was able to catch up in time to help his clan with the action. Clan Naga Sadow infiltrated the terrorist organization and turned the media against them, then Clan Naga Sadow was able to destroy the terrorist leader known as Deliverance. Roxas was able to aid his clan during the battle with Deliverance. During the mission Roxas showed his skills and abilities in battle, proving that he is an extremely determined warrior. He also showed his willingness to contribute to his Clan.
Tarthos
Markosian City
A few weeks later, a massive army of Vongspawn and Ekind attacked Tarthos. The Sadowans hurried to the defence of their planet. Roxas valiantly fought on the front lines aiding his Clan to push the enemy back a great distance and eventually defeating them, but not without sustaining significant injuries. After the Vong and Ekind had been removed from around the Temple, Roxas sensed something he hadn't in a long time, so he Force pushed the doors of the temple open. There he donned his golden armor and disobeying his orders he took a Headhunter and flew for Markosian city, letting his feeling guide him he searched for the one ,who destroyed his Clan. As he neared the center of the city his ship was shot down and he had to continue the search on foot. After a short mishap of friendly fire from Araxis Pepoi Farron Roxas reached a Dlarit Corporation office building that the Dark Jedi that killed his clan had taken over. Roxas scaled the building, using the grappling hook on his armor. Roxas learned that the Dark Jedi was searching for him and that the Dark Jedi had helped the Vongspawn and Ekind during the invasion. The two fought an intense battle in which Roxas wounded the Dark Jedi and was thrown from the landing platform that they were fighting on. Roxas threw two thermal detonators as he fell, destroying the landing platform. Roxas was severally injured, suffering a dislocated shoulder, a broken arm, broken ribs, and a broken leg. Roxas was led by Venator to the base of resistance fighters that were combatting the invaders. There Roxas's wounds were tended too and he assumed control of the group. Roxas was not fully awake when Venator helped him, all he remembered was waking up in the Resistance base, and decided that he owed one to whoever helped him get there. Roxas taking command of the resistance fighters lead them toward the last place he saw his allies, the red sector. Roxas was surprised to hear a command come over his comm from Fremoc Pepoi, all forces were ordered to the blue sector as the green sector was declaired lost. Leading the resistance group as fast as he could out of the sector, Roxas met up with Methyas and Araxis. Shortly after this, Fremoc Pepoi had green sector annihilated by the Republic-class Star Destroyer Final Way. Roxas wasn't bothered by the destruction of the Green Sector instead he understood that some saccrifices would have to be made. During a temporary break in the fighting Roxas used the power of Force Hibernation to learn who had helped him find the resistance members. He learned that he was helped by Venator and vowed to help Venator out when ever he needed him.Roxas traveled with Methyas and Araxis to Orian Manor. And still suffering from his injuries went to the infirmary. There he had a soldier bring him his black suit of armor and send the gold suit to be scrapped as it had suffered irripairable damage (it is unknown when, but at some point Roxas melts done and refurbishes the black suit and makes it green). Roxas then went to the armory and got a new armory saber seeing as his other was destroyed during his fight with the dark jedi. Roxas then went to the Final Way and gathered DSOG troops to aid in the battle in Kar Alabrek.
Kar Alabrek
Upon reaching the ruined city Roxas joined up with Methyas, Araxis, and Venator. Together they began the attack on the Vongspawn and Ekind. The group got separated as Methyas and Araxis rushed to aid Fremoc. Roxas lead his troops into Ragnos Cathedral. While inside he lead his troops further in, in an atttempt to clear the area of enemies. The group was attacked and a battle ensued. They were overwhelmed, and had to fall back and leave the Cathedral. While outside Roxas met up with Venator and they fought side by side and back to back aiding each other as they moved. The two dark jedi work extremely well in combat. The Sadowans fought their way back to the cathedral under the orders of Fremoc. As he reached the cathedral Fremoc had Methyas and Araxis heal Roxas' wounds, while the Mandalorian boasted that he had killed over three hundred Vongspawn and Ekind. None of the dark jedi were able to open the doors to the Cathedral except an elder. Trevarus Caerick was the only person who could open the doors. As the elder opened the doors all the Sadowans ignited their lightsabers at the same time in preparation for the Vongspawn and Ekind inside the Cathedral. The doors opened and the Sadowans charged inside toward the enemies awaiting them, the Ekind Honor Guard. An intense battle began with hero's on both sides, the only difference was that the Sadowans were trained in the Force giving them an advantage against their enemies. After a fierce battle the Sadowans fought their way through the Great Sadow Library and made it to the Ritual Chamber. There they began the battle with the leader of the Vongspawn and Ekind, a beautiful woman named Hafa. The battle was long a fierce. As Methyas attacked her, she ran. He followed determined to get the information that he needed out of her. Just before she fled, giant arachnids stormed into the room from the ceiling and attacked the Sadowans. Roxas himself was pinned by one of the spiders and the only way that he ould escape was to ignite his forearm mounted flamethrower and set the creature on fire, causing it to burn to death. He then aided Teu Pepoi, who's arm was broken by one of the enormous arachnids. During this time Kano returned to Naga Ssdow and gave aid to his comrades. While the Sadowans were clearing the remaining enemies, Methyas killed the female enemy and retrieved the information that he needed. Soon after, Fremoc left Naga Sadow for his exile.
Disorder (34ABY)
Roxas was aboard the FCC Firefox when it landed on the desert that is Antei. He was provoked by some of his men and he fought them, killing the one's that attacked. He left the Sith armada and headed for the position being held by the Obelisk troops. As he reached their position he was captured and taken before of the Obelisk commanders. Roxas explained how he wanted to become an Obelisk and that he wanted to be trained by Fremoc Pepoi. They lead them to Fremoc's position, but the speeder they were using crashed and Roxas was lost in the desert for the rest of the war. He was finally rescued and he met up with Fremoc for his training.
A New Team
- "I have a new team. It will be hard and if you don't keep up you will die quickly."
- ―Kano to Roxas
Shortly after the events of Disorder Kano Tor Pepoi started a new battle team, which he called The Regulators. While Roxas was training, Kano came to him and asked him to join the team. Roxas agreed and was given a black bandana that had the crest of the new team on it.
Knighthood
Fremoc was practicing his techniques in the Temple of Blood on Sepros. Roxas was hiding nearby, secretly watching his master train. Fremoc received a message from Tsainetomo Keibatsu Sadow and was told that he was needed on Antei as he was now the Fist of the Brotherhood. Fremoc , who had noticed that his apprentice was watching him called him over. As Roxas approached him, Fremoc charged and knocked him to the ground. Fremoc handed Roxas the lightsaber that he had confiscated days earlier and handed it to him, as well as helped him back up off the ground. Fremoc informed Roxas that he was now knighted and then left without another word.The Raptor team of the Regulators was called to go to Aeotheran to help Macron kill Curwen Sunei for the murder of Ashura Isradia Sadow, but along the way Fremoc sent a message to the team and ordered them to capture Sunei instead, but only half the team heard it as the Raptor squad had already jumped out of the ship, using HALO jump to reach there destination.
Nifokalija Mountains, Aeotheran
The mountains were littered with a thick forest that was covered in a dense fog and deep snow. As the group walked a blaster bolt flew toward them and it was up to Roxas to find the sniper. Using the thermal imaging function of his helmet the Mandalorian was able to find and neutralize the enemy. The team walked over to where the enemy's body should have been and it had vanished. Deciding that it was the best thing to do they launched a flare to signal their position to Kano and the others. Roxas fired his blaster and was met by a double edged pike to the neck of his armor, it was Kano's. He called out and Kano and the rest regrouped. Together the group continued toward their target. After some time the Regulators found a cave, and their target was inside. The team captured Sunei with any struggle. The M-CRV Reaper's Call picked up the team and their prisoner.
M-CRV Reaper's Call
The team was successful in its first mission, or that's what they thought. Sunei used some sort of darkside magic to put the Regulators to sleep and turn the crew of the ship into zombie like creatures, this also shut down the ship leaving it dead in space. Kano was the first to wake up and he woke up the rest of the regulators. The team began looking for a way to get the ship working again. Roxas was the first to be attacked by a crew member, who he struck down with ease. The team stayed on their guard as they continued the search of the ship, but one of their own, Methyas, was somehow possessed by Sunei and attacked Venator and Roxas. Venator was able to bring Methyas back to his senses, but not with out sustaining injuries that included a collapsed lung and some broken ribs. With Venator's and Methyas's wounds being taken care of by John Witwalker and Dirk Valentine the team continued their search. Oddly enough Kano was slowly possessed as well, but Fremoc showed up and began fighting him to bring him back to his senses. The rest of the team had now found Sunei and began fighting him. Macron, Jade, Kalei, and Aleho cut through the ceiling of the bridge and dropped in to aid in thie battle. The fights on the bridge and the one between Kano and Fremoc were intense and neither would end without death. Thanks to Macron's group and the Regulators Sunei was killed, but not without serious injury to the crazed alchemist. Fremoc unable to bring Kano to his senses killed him as a last resort. Macron lying on the floor of the bridge was dying, but the members of Sadow wouldn't allow it to happen. Every member in the room reached out with the Force and gave a prtion of their own energy and connection to keep the Sith from dying. At this time Roxas discovered something within himself that was buried deep within his soul, but was unable to understand it. With the group concentrating all that they had on the Sith alchemist, they were able to revive him. With the mission finally over the Regulator returned to Tarthos to burry their fallen comrade and brother in arms, Kano.
Funeral of a Vod
- "Let the afterlife know that when Kano is armed, and drunk, even the departed aren’t safe."
- ―Venator at Kano's funeral
The scene was full of sadness as the wake was taking place. Each member walked by their fallen comrade and put some small trinket or other in the casket. Venator being second in command had taken complete command of the Regulators as the teams new Sargent. Roxas, Rang and Witwalker stood near the hole to which their ally would be placed, each man holding a rifle. And as Venator gace the order they fired over the casket into the sky in honor of their past Sargent. An hour later at the Pepoi residence, Roxas wore his full suit of Mandalorian armor and no matter how many times he was asked or told to remove at least the helmet and get comfortable he would ignore it, for in his own way he was honoring his fallen comrade. Roxas never have been in the Pepoi compound began walking around and found Kano's old room. He entered and saw his former master's helmet on a shelf. Roxas removed his helmet and said his goodbyes. (There is more to come, editing is needed before posting)
Random Information
Roxas only knows two languages: Basic and Mandoa. He believes anything else is a waste of his time. He strongly follows Resol'nare with one exception being the use of the Force, he justifies this by referring that the Force is a weapon and that is how he intends to use it. It is unknown where he currently lives and when asked he replies either Mandalore or Dxun. There have been recent rumors that he either lives in a hut in the woods of Tarthos or he doesn't sleep at all and instead spends all of his spare time in the training halls. The latter of the two is convenient as Roxas usually does spend his time training.
Equipment
Armor
Roxas had two suits of Mandalorian armor. Both of which he made himself. Both suits of armor that Roxas had, were equipped with a forearm mounted flame thrower, forearm mounted blaster, and grapple hooks on each arm. The helmets all had night vision, a compass with GPS navigation, a range finder, and are sealed from the outside environment. The helmets can supply him with a limited amount of air if he is submerged in water or in a vacuum. The helmets are also capable of marking bounty targets or enemies and tracking them across great distances. Roxas developed a special suit of Mandalorian Armor to combat the Dark Jedi that destroyed his Clan. It is made of durasteel, but during the fabrication process he heat treated the metal to the point where it became extremely dense and sturdy, essentially carbonizing it. He refused to use this armor for anything other than avenging his Clan, hence the gold color, which to Mandalorians stands for vengeance. The golden suit of armor was destroyed during "Unrest in the City." The other suit of armor in his possesion was locked in the safe at The Crossroads by order of Mirado. Roxas has effectively discarded that suit until further notice.
Casual Wear
When not in armor or when he is at The Crossroads Roxas will wear the clothes of a "scoundrel." He wears a gunbelt that has a small hook iin the back for his lightsaber, so he can hide it while in public
Blasters
Roxas uses a Dlarit NR3 Submachine gun and a Dlarit NR2 Combat Pistol. Both weapons are slug throwers, which were preferred by the Night Raptors before they were disbanded. He also uses an out dated DC-17m interchangeable weapon system. Roxas uses this blaster rifle because it is very versatile, having a sniper attachment and an anti-armor attachment. This blaster rifle was used by Republic Commandos during the Clone Wars. Roxas's DC-17m was destroyed during "Unrest in the City".
Lightsabers
Upon reaching knighthood Roxas constructed his first lightsaber, which he affectionately calls "The Wolf's Fang." After constructing his first saber, Roxas immediately mastered the lightsaber form known as Shii-Cho, which is an aggressive and deceptive lightsaber form.
