History
Early Years
Revs_home_planetRevs was born Raven Yager, the oldest child in a small Miraluka family that worked as servants in House Qel-Droma. His father and mother worked for House Qel-Droma using their Sight to help find potential Force users. Growing up as a servant in Qel-Droma, Revs learned to take pride in the House. His father would tell him stories of the Great dark Jedi and the powers they could control. He would also be told of stories of one of his ancestors, Karadin Stargazer, who was said to be a great Sith during the Jedi Civil War. Revs loved to listen to his father tell stories of his ancestors, and though none in the family had been strong enough to use the Force since. He vowed that he would be amongst the great Sith in the legends he had been so fascinated with while growing up.
Because of his small size as a child, and his physical blindness, Revs was always a target for the older children. After enrolling in a school to learn the art of Broken Gate, Revs soon learned to hold his own which lead to others ambushing him with larger numbers. Always being on guard has caused Revs’ Force Sight to develop to where can see in a full spectrum around him through the Force, and he seemed to develop a sixth sense at spotting traps laid out for him.. He also learned early on to use his environment in calculating strategies against his opponents. Revs found out that the best way to deal with a possible threat is to hit it hard and fast while remaining undetected then run away. It did not take long for him to start setting up his own ambushes.
As he grew older Revs found he had a love for swoop bikes. By the age of twelve, he no longer found interest in his father’s stories of his ancestors. He could usually be found down at the local swoop track with his younger brother Michal, harassing the racers. By the age of fourteen, he had started hanging around with a small swoop gang called the Colony despite his parents wishes for him to stop and join the Shadow Academy. By the age of sixteen. he had rebuilt an old Z-Zypher model swoop, and even gained enough respect from The Colony to be accepted in as a prospect for the gang. With this acceptance, he stopped going by his birth name Raven, and started going by Revs.
Life in a swoop gang
When Revs first joined, the gang was small, though they had claimed a small town outside of Estle city as its territory. Constant attacks from rival gangs and infighting made life in The Colony hard. One day, during a run transporting a load of spice, Revs had the strange feeling he would get when he was about to enter a trap. He warned the Daynast, who had been the leader of the gang at the time, only to be laughed at and told to shut up. Within seconds an ambush was sprung upon their vehicle, as a rival gang called The Immortals opened fire and cut off the street. Already being on alert, Revs was able to think quickly and spring together a plan that saved them, taking only minor casualties at the same time. This event gained Revs the trust of Daynast, and by the age of eighteen, he was a full member with the rank of Enforcer. Within six months of being made an Enforcer, Revs had saved the club from many attacks, and even planned and led attacks against rival gangs. During this time he met a young Human girl named Angela. The pair’s relationship blossomed quickly and they had begun dating before long.
Taking over
Over the next several months the infighting in the gang had grown out of control, which causing a split in the gang’s leadership. Seeing an opportunity to take control, Revs formed a plan to gather support for himself. Once he had done so, Revs systematically eliminated all of the rivals and possible ones who could stand in his way before declaring the gang his. Upon taking control, the young Miraluka changed many rules to make the gang stronger. He brought his little brother in and started to strike out harder at other gangs. As The Colony grew in strength and number, the attention of the local crime lord Jarcoma the Hutt fell upon them. The Hutt summoned Revs to an audience and offered that the Colony work for the crime lord. Having no choice but to take the Hutt’s offer, The Colony became a group of hired thugs doing whatever the crime lord demanded of them.
The End of the Colony
For the next year and a half Revs lead the gang in eliminating the hurts rivals, and running his Spice trade. During a Spice run, Revs was betrayed by Angela, who lead the rival gang The Immortals into the drop location then knocked him unconscious. Upon awakening, Revs found two of his fellow members dead and Jarcoma's Spice stolen. After telling the Hutt that his drugs had been stolen, Revs was given ten days to come up with thirty thousand credits to repay what he lost. In a desperate attempt to recover the Spice, Revs launched an all-out attack against the Immortals. The attack went awry, resulting in a complete massacre of The Colony. Revs barely managed to escape the chaos, dragging a wounded Michal with him back to the safety of his parent’s home within House Qel-Droma.
Revs spent days beside his younger brother’s bed trying to cope with the pain he had caused his family. After three days of fighting for his life, Michal became one with the Force. Distraught and afraid of the wrath of the Hutt, Revs turned to his father's council. Blaming Revs for Michal’s death, his father would not permit Revs to live in his home, but again advised he join the Shadow Academy. Taking his father’s advice. Revs took the entrance exam and was accepted to study the ways of the Force.
Path of a Journeyman
Upon joining the Shadow Academy at age twenty, Revs quickly rose through the ranks to that of Protector. The Miraluka then gained membership into House Qel-Droma as a way to covertly keep an eye on his family and make sure he could be nearby in case of danger. He drew the attention of Celevon Edraven, who took the young Sith on as his apprentice and started training him as a Shadesworn Assassin. Under Edraven’s tutelage, Revs quickly rose to the rank of Jedi Hunter, and was well on his way to becoming a true Shadesworn and Dark Jedi Knight.
Appearance
Revs is 5 foot 7 inches tall, weighing about 68kg. He has an athletic build with a lot of muscle tone. Due to his smaller stature he prefers to use his speed and dexterity to his advantage over brute strength. Revs has long brown hair down to about the middle of his back. He keeps a long black cloth tied around his head to cover his empty eye sockets. He as a slim face, face with a prominent jawline. His nose is slightly crooked from being broken in the past.
Personality
Revs can be a laid back, fun-seeking individual who loves a good time. But when it comes time for a job to be done, or his studies in the Force he can get very serious and even go a little overboard to make sure things are done right the first time. Revs can be a sucker for the ladies' and never passes up a chance to flirt. This trait that has led him into trouble on numerous occasions.
Growing up blind caused Revs to be an easy target for bullies, which taught him to always be aware of his surroundings, even if he could only detect them by sound and scent. Later, while living in a swoop gang, Revs learned the value of a well-placed ambush making surprise be his favorite element of attack. After training under Edraven, Revs found he had a love for lightsaber duels and is willing to engage in a fair dual quickly. If outnumbered or outclassed, he will resort back to underhanded tactics.
Revs is slow to make friends thanks to his upbringing, but when finds someone worthy of his loyalty and/or friendship, he would go to the ends of the Galaxy for them. Though not without a plan

Force Wraith
The Rougarou - After extensive training, Edraven decided that Revs was strong and loyal enough to learn to summon a Arconian Force Wraith. After weeks of training and many failed attempts, the young Sith finally summoned his first Wraith. The Wraith took a strange form with the head of a dog and body of a human. Standing at approximately 1.5 meters, the creature had a very muscular body, with five claws on each hand and foot. Its muzzle is full of razor sharp teeth. When summoned, the Wraith attacks it targets with a uncontrolled wild passion.
