Callus: The Man Behind The Saber

Character History

Early Years

Callus was born on Hoth two years after the battle of Yavin in a smuggler colony on the far side of the planet as the second son to the leader of the band Shamshod Tigrn. When the imperials attacked the rebels they weren’t far off from the notion that there were smugglers on the planet.

8 years after the attack when Callus was 11 his brother Ghen left for the Imperial academy on Corellia. Callus followed shortly in his brother’s footsteps after deciding he didn’t feel like staying on Hoth any longer after already helping his father and the smuggling band reconstruct Echo base as their new home he left for Corellia and the Imperial academy at the age of 12

When he first arrived he searched for his brother only to discover that he had defected to the rebellion or “New Republic” as they called themselves. After graduating 4th in his class from the academy and receiving the Corellian Bloodstripe he joined the TIE Corps at 16 and was assigned to the now inactive Raptor Squadron of the inactive wing XX of the also now inactive ISD Subjugator of the failing Avenger Task Force.

The TIE Corps

After 2 weeks of being in the Squadron he was promoted to Lieutenant and flight leader of a flight of TIE Advanced the “Dromeasaurs”. After a 2 month stint as FL of the Dromeasaurs and a promotion to Captain he was placed in the Missile Boat Squadron and while he considered his new squadron to be too slow he excelled in the position and was soon made FL of that flight. After being successful mission after mission he was finally promoted to Lieutenant Commander and at the request of the entirety of Raptor Squadron assumed the Commander’s chair. Soon after he was promoted to Commander and then to Major. That is where his star studded career in the TIE Corps ended.

In a daring attempt to free a frigate from the clutches of the rebels despite numerous warnings his entrie squadron save himself was destroyed. He was barely able to make it back alive and wished he hadn’t. He was stripped of all rank and honor and Dishonorably Discharged from the TIE Corps. At this time Callus was now 20 years old.

After the Corps

Little is known about him during his two years among the stars before he came to be in the brotherhood. Some say he just floated in space until he finally crash landed on Lyspair and was rescued by the Sith there. Still some say that they thought they’d seen him working as a mercenary on many different planets. One thing is certain though. He sought out and killed his brother.

Clan Satal Keto

Upon his arrival in the brotherhood he advanced at a rapid pace in the faltering Clan Satal Keto. In house Aleema under the guidance of Enahropes Entar within 2 months he was made Tetrarch of the Ensaguined Reavers Phyle as a Protector. Fallowing the teachings of his master, Pug Milamber Titanos and his Quaestor Xhedias Draconis Entar, his power grew still. As a Guardian he was made Aedile of House Aleema where he served until the time when Xhedias left Satal Keto for Clan Naga Sadow when he was made Quaestor of House Aleema as just a Jedi Hunter.


His new master Consul of Clan Satal Keto, Selket Kuro Hyo Entar, completed his training as he became a Dark Jedi Knight. His house and clan prospered at the time until the darkness that was the merge fell upon him and his clanmates.

The Merger and Clan Plagueis

During this time of utter chaos at the merger of Clan Satal Keto and Clan Exar Kun into Clan Plagueis Callus stepped in as Aedile of House Exar Kun and calmed his people down while he completed the training of his student, Doku, he was asked by the Consul of Clan Plagueis, Lucius Isradia, -who replaced Grand Master Chi Long- to step aside due to his “lack of vision”.

The Man

Physical Description

Callus is the epitome of the Obelisk order. He is extremely muscular and has the aura of a Warrior in his stance. Callus has close cropped blonde hair and a goatee against his tan skin. Callus can usually be found wearing a red tank top and depending on the weather a pair of either Corellian bloodstripe pants or a pair of black mesh shorts with the CSK emblem embossed on them. Callus also has the TIE Corps insignia "branded" on his right shoulder. His attitude comes from his time as a pilot in the TIE Corps and as most that’ve ever come back from live combat in a TIE know you're already a veteran after one skirmish. He knows what it takes to survive through the most adverse situations though most of his opponents don't give him enough of a challenge to make him use all of his skills.

"Callus is a physically imposing human specimen standing at just under 2 meters and weighing in at about 95 kilos he is, at the age of 23, in peak physical condition. A human 'tank'." -ACC Combatant Database description

Thoughts

Callus has little respect for the other orders though there are a few exeptions. One being ofcourse the current Grand Master who is a Sith. Callus also has an unshakable respect for the Combat Master, Dalthid who happens to be a Krath. Callus has one unique trait that might be considered an oddity to those who don’t understand the background behind it.

Special Traits

Unlike a normal human his body temperature is a chilly 96.2 degrees Fahrenheit. This came about during his youth on Hoth where during a hunt in a Wampa cave he fell through the ice of a frozen lake. He was pulled out of the water by his father before he died but the hypothermia had already done its job. He was in shock for over a week with his body temperature dipping into the mid-eighties at times. This experience left his body temperature sub-normal.

Callus suffered a knee injury in his teen years while playing a game of the once extremely popular game of football with his friends on Corellia while at the academy. He dropped back to pass the ball and after he’d thrown the ball one of his friends dove into his right leg. As his leg was firmly planted in the ground the impact caused his knee to collapse inward tearing his Medial Collateral Ligament and shredding apart his Meniscus. This injury healed well with the assistance of the medical facilities at the academy. They replaced his ligament with plexi-flesh and his meniscus with some synthesized cartilage. Callus through time and training has overcome these injuries and he’s stronger than he was before the injuries even happened. In most situations his knee doesn’t even bother him during normal activity. (running, walking, lifting boxes, light training sessions, etc…) During his heavy weight lifting sessions and extremely strenuous training sessions he has to stop every 20 minutes or so and stretch it out and relax for a few minutes. Needless to say in combat this is a hassle so before any planned combat he takes several pain medications and applies an analgesic cream to his knee to numb the pain.

Posessions

Callus dosent have much in the way of material posessions that would be of great intrest to many people other than three or four items.

Lightsaber

Over the years Callus has had several different sabers due to use and sabers being rendered useless by damage suffered over the years, such as being melded to his flesh, dropped in acid pits and other such things.

Callus' newest blade


Callus' original saber has been rendered disfuntional due to severe use and obvious damage it's suffered over the years.

Callus' newest blade that has been crafted to his customized specifications. The metal work however isn't completely his. His former student, now Dark Jedi Knight, Raven helped him craft the blade's hilt. They used only the finest durasteel and for the grip the most luxurious bantha hide leather.

Tigrin's Flame

His fighter, inherited from his father and that uses his former surname, Is an old Z-95 headhunter. Though most consider the fighter outdated it has been well mainained and can match an X-Wing manuver for manuver in space and operates actually a bit better in atmospheric conditions.
