History
Almost a blank slate compared to his contemporaries in the Brotherhood, Maaks grew up clear of warfare and tragedy, nevertheless, his future holds a touch of destiny about it.
Doldrums
Born to the adopted Miraluka homeworld, Maaks had an uneventful upbringing, kept safe from the ravages of galactic war by both the planet’s isolated location and his parent’s meticulous efforts to keep their family out of the spotlight. His mother was an artisan and his father was a local fisherman, which granted them modest financial security. There were few events of note, however this left Maaks feeling unfulfilled, fustrated and bored. Unfortunately, his parents were very, very accepting and any attempts by the youth to express himself through teenage rebellion were met with patient understanding and affection, further infuriating him. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Alpheridies was kept mercifully safe due to it being secreted away in the Veil, and much of the Vong attention was focused on nearby Hapes, however Maaks, like all Miraluka, could sense the war raging through the galaxy and felt drawn to the conflict, anything to escape the mundane monotony of his life on Alpheridies. His chance came when a resupply vessel from the Arconan hermit fleet landed on Alpheridies, and he stowed aboard it, feeling an urging from the force.
Upon arriving on the Clan’s flagship, he was immediately arrested by the ship’s security and nearly executed on the spot, however luck once again shone on him, as the Consul at the time, Sashar Arconae, prevented it, as he sensed considerable force potential in the youth. Thus, his training began.
The Blind following the Blind
Initially, Maaks was sent to the Shadow Academy and passed basic training, as he was physically able and potent enough in the force to graduate, however all of his instructors noted how he lacked the killer instinct most Dark Jedi possessed. Thus, he did not make many friends there. Sashar, hearing that Maaks was in danger of being picked off by one of the more vicious Apprentices, called him back to the Dajorra System, where he immediately took him on as an apprentice of his own. Reluctantly, the Consul agreed with the Shadow Academy Instructors’ prognosis, Maaks did indeed lack the X factor needed to take a life and be a truly effective soldier, and instead sent him to Dxun for Mandalorian training under several of his brothers there, including Kieran Kodiak Erinos and Juda Kodiak Erinos.
