Saarin Vahn (formerly known as Mend’aar Ukri) is a Jedi Hunter, of the Clan of Arcona, House of Galeres. Saarin, (not to be confused with the former Grand Master Darth Sarin), has been with the Dark Brotherhood For near 3 1/2 standard years, however his rank in comparrison to his fellow force wielders is considerably low taking in consideration the time he's spent with the Dark Brotherhood, the reasoning only known by few and questioned by less, though Saarin prefers it that way. Saarin has often taken time to himself to reflect and meditate, on serveral tragic situations in both distant and recent memory; as to re-evaluate his role in the galaxy. He is with little doubt a solitary man, prefering to let his actions be they waging war on the battlefield or sparring in the combat arena; do the speaking for him. Making few friends or enemies, and his sporatic attendance has made him forgetable, so his goals more than anything, more than mastering combat even, is one that comes natural to his human mentality, to acheive a feat so great as to be written into history and legend.
Character History
Early Years & Kessel Run
Saarin Vahn grew up on the mining planet of Kessel. Born unto slave parents, his father was a miner, and his mother served drinks to the miners and passing patrons of one of the smaller canitinas near the shipping yards. Saarin grew up very early learning many things about many planets and star systems, buy eavesdropping on the conversations of freighter pilots, passing mercenaries and even the occational Pirate. He spent his younger years cleaning the floors and washing the dishes of the cantina his mother served in. Though once he reached the age of twelve he was sold to another slaver who owned a dig in the mines of kessel. Saarin spent the next eight years of his life in those mines, and in spite of the constant inhaled spice dusts and particles, he was stronger, and had a better stamina than that of a normal, human of his age and weight. Though he knew the spice mines were little more than a long term death sentence, ever since he'd been sent there he had devised plans of escaping. On a moonless summer night, he and a band of would be rebels, crept there way to the docking bay with a security acess card and a few stolen blasters,
and a pilot itching to get back to the cockpit. Once they made there Attempt to escape they were caught up in a small skirmish, and an unexpected adversary was there to greet them, an old coligue of the pilot and reknowned pirate; former first mate of his previous ship and a Mandalorian none the less. It was in this battle that Saarin lost the use of his left arm, when the Mandalorian Kandar severed it from his body at the elbow with a vibrosword. Though it was also, in this battle that he first unlocked the hidden abilities he never suspected he had, by using a powerful version of force push, allowing himself to make a sprint for the ship. He and the old captain Felnorr were the only two, to successfully make the escape, though just barley. Saarin knew that somehow his troubles were only just begining, and that adventure and danger was about to consume his destiny.
Sour Dealings
2 months after the events of his great escape from kessel, Saarin found himself a job as a pirate and smuggler working for Felnorr. He was
Felnorr's personal bodyguard and copilot when they went on raids and smuggle runs. Though the job it self was not the safest or the most legal of jobs one could have, the pay was quite decent and company was hospitible. In a particular smuggle run, he and Felnorr were to drop off a stolen shipment of weapons in a meeting place of the buyers choice. It was a simple trade, weapons for creds. Though the result could not have been farther from simple. The two bags supposed to be filled with Credits, were actually filled with two twin bombs, small sized nukes to be exact. Saarin and Felnorr had to shoot there way out of the situation only to see the blast go off from high orbit, knowing the buyers were not privy to the contents, meaning someone else was behind the coup. After this occurance, Felnorr tryed to get Saarin recruited to the Jedi Order, though, due to his age, Saarin was not excepted. After he was dismissed from the testing, Felnorr decided Saarin needed to go to the Sith Academy on Korriban. He contacted an old friend, with the information, and gave Saarin money to barter passage. only months later Saarin Vahn was a full fledged Initiate in the Dark Brotherhood.

Vengeance
After the death of his close friend and mentor Felnorr, Saarin felt and obligation to track down the murderer's who'd killed him. Saarin trackedthem as far as Nar Shadaa, though they were hidden well, and in there own element, Saarin was out of his. After days of asking around and searching cantinas they might frequent, luck, or the Force, saw favor for Saarin, a low level enforcer, a thug, conected to the suspects of his freinds murder; Saarin followed him back to his hideout, which was located on an abandoned space station in orbit of Nar Shadaa. Once inside, Saarin knew he'd need to make his way to the atrium. He fought through waves of bandits, raiders, pirates, and merenary thugs, to finally get the the culprit, the one pulling the strings, and the one whom gave to order to off felnorr, Kandar Ordo, the mandalorian, who years ago had taken Saarin's arm during his escape from Kessel.
Appearance & Personality
Physical Appearance
Saarin Vahn is very tall standing at about 6' 2". He has a very muscular body, much attributed to that of his youth years working manual labor in the kessel spice mines. His hair has completly fallen out of his head, due in most part to his former work conditions on kessel. He has an intimidating brutish beard, very long, with a single large braid about 8 inches in legth, which he adorns with dark circlets to retain its figure. His eyes are very bright grey, almost silver in colour. His robes are made up of hardend composite plating and rough dark leathers and cloth, his voice can be described as barritone, but with a very commanding and booming sensation. his body is scarred from his many battles and is covered in the tattoo's of a Sith devoutee. Few Dark Jedi have done this, of the few Darth Maul was one, the process and ritual one must undergo is one of extreme pain, however Saarin only received tha Black designs, he did not care to recieve the red designs.
Personality
Saarin has grown to be cold and ruthless in his years as a Dark Jedi. Loosing friends and the few family he had, has taken its toll on his
ability to care, some might even say, he has become callous to all emotion, though anger and frustration are still a frequent visiter to his temperment. He once loved a woman, whom he intended to marry, though again, through lack of luck, or will of the Force, she left him for another, he was so furious, blaming himself, and from then on decided love was an invalid emotion based from a mix of lust and hormones, though some part of him still wishes to beleive in love, it is a waning thought, that it ever existed. Saarin's ability to control his anger is astonishing however, in comparison to those around him, his peers, would all cave in to the intensity of anger he experiences and would lash out without regard of consiquence, though Saarin is a natural tactition, never making a move without knowing its result 2 steps ahead. Saarin uses his bottled rage for battle, turning it into a weapon unto itself, an undeniable, unquechable thirst for violence and lust for the death and downfall of all Jedi. This also allows him to access force rage and use it to infuse his attacks with a more powerful, more percise strike.

- His Eyes were inspired from riddick from The Chronicles of Riddick.
- His physical build could be comparable to the actor who played King Leonitus from the movie 300.
- His loss of arm is greatly inspired by Anakin Skywalkers, though I doubt few whom have a cybernetic arm could say theirs was not.
- Saarin's No BS style of Combat is heavily reliant on brute force, centering his focus on two handed strikes and a killing blow, he often makes use of feints (deceptive strikes intended as a ploy to distract and set up ones opponent for a more disabling blow) as well.

- I have built many Lightsabers as full contact sparring tested and approved props for fan films which never saw final production.
