'''Talos Erinos''' is an [[Obelisk Templar]] in service to [[Arcona|Clan Arcona]] and has served his beloved Clan in a wide array of capacities. Currently, Talos is the [[Aedile]] of [[House Galeres]], the first to hold the position since Arcona was raised once more to Clan status in the dawn of 35 ABY. The young Human is also a member of the [[Erinos]], one of the most influential families in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, and it is from them that he is learning advanced combat and leadership tactics.
Talos is a Sith Battlemaster, currently sworn to [[House Karness Muur]] of [[Clan Plagueis]]. A veteran of the [[Dark Brotherhood]], Talos was a loyal vassal of [[Clan Arcona]] for almost a decade before vanishing after the War of the Three Families. Returning from his home planet of [[starwars: Kiffex|Kiffex]] in 37 ABY, Talos joined the Ascendent Clan at the dawn of the Brotherhood's renewed conflict with the [[Collective]].

==== Appearance ====
Overall attractive, Talos is a fairly average Kiffar male by first glance. In his early thirties, Talos has been in peak physical condition for over half his life, first as an athlete and later as a law enforcement officer and tactical team operator; he religiously works to maintain his broad chest, defined shoulders, powerful arms, and small tree-trunk like legs with an intense physical training program. His two most noticeable features are his uniquely colored eyes, green-gray similar to a restless ocean, and the traditional Kiffar male tattoos running in two gold bands from under his left eye, across his nose, and ending under his right eye. Steel-gray and black hair is kept neatly maintained in rows at shoulder length, offering a picture of both youthful energy and experienced professionalism; two shocks of white hair at either temple are one of the few indications of Talos' wisdom and experience.

==== Apparel ====

Talos is a firm believer in dressing for the situation, rather than the tradition. Choosing to eschew the traditional Brotherhood regalia at this time, Talos' regular attire consists of a dark gray and crimson utility suit with a betaplast half-plate covering his upper chest. The torso area of the utility suit is double-stitched and able to ward off some bladed weapons while still prioritizing mobility. A thigh-drop holster covers his right thigh, connected to a simple belt rig that holds his lightsaber, comlink, and other pertinent equipment.

{{Quote|If I Tell You, I Have To Kill You|Talos' journal, 33 ABY}}
 
It wasn't long after Talos' honorable discharge as [[Aedile]] of [[House Qel-Droma]] that he came to the attention of one of his former subordinates, [[Marick Del'Abbot]]. Publicly, Marick was a Hapan nobleman serving as an emissary to the Dajorra System, but in actuality, he was the Captain of [[Oblivion Brigade]], Arcona's Black Operations Team.  Talos had worked with Marick on quite a few occasions and, along with Quaestor Driftan Housan, was the official signature on many of Oblivion's writs of assassination as they fulfilled their mandate of carrying out clandestine operations and monitoring Arcona's own Dark Jedi populace as Internal Affairs.
 
Unfortunately, with Talos' recent appointment to House Rollmaster, he would no longer possess the clearance to directly deal with the Black Ops Team. However, true to his noble upbringing, when Marick saw something he wanted, he would often go to great lengths of make sure he got it. This was true with Talos; by finding loopholes in the Doto Doctrine, Del'Abbot was able to add the new Rollmaster to the ranks of Oblivion, alongside fellow House prodigies such as the Entar trio of Strategos, Timeros, and Legorii as well as bounty hunter Kant Lavar.
 
And so Talos Omerta became an official Oblivion Agent, though his duties to Arcona's new recruits as Rollmaster always came first. Ironically, it was due to the Brigade's training and conditioning that resulted in the Rollmaster having to vacate his position after a solid 4 months of service; the cross-immunization/addition of hurlothrumbic gases (fear generators) to Talos' bloodstream made him come off as cold, calculating, and deadly; something that was perfect for an Oblivion Agent, but not so much for a Rollmaster, one responsible for dealing with the new apprentices.
 
After complaints of apprentices transferring to other Houses or even leaving the Brotherhood outright became to numerous to ignore, Talos and the Summit met quietly and discussed yet another honorable discharge. With the appreciation and blessing of the House Summit, and a Steel Cross pinned to his chest, Talos Omerta handed over the reigns of the Rollmastership to Timeros Caesus Entar Arconae, who was in fact, an Oblivion Agent himself. However, Timeros's far greater knowledge of the Force allowed him to counteract the hurlothrumbic gases within him and serve as an exemplary Rollmaster.
 
As for Talos, he went on "active duty" with Oblivion Brigade and for a considerable chunk of time, he was away from the Arconan Capital on Brigade business, hunting down those who had deserted the Shadesworn House. When Omerta returned, he was colder than before and, or so rumor has it, he had personally executed two of the errant apprentices who had deserted Arcona because he was so "unnerving".
 
====  Vice-Captain  ====
{{Quote|You're now on dual assignments. Primarily, you'll be working with me as my right hand. But when I don't need you, you and Agent Fortea will be comprising '''Delta Cell'''|Cpt. Marick Del'Abbot, appointing and reassigning Vcp. Talos Omerta}}
 
Talos Omerta took to being an Oblivion Agent like a fish to water and as he impressed not only his Captain, but also the Arconan Summit, he was given more important missions, often ones taking place right in [[Estle City]]. One such assignment was a mission codenamed "Contract 002", which had the Agent paired up with his commanding officer, Marick Del'Abbot, while the two black operatives investigated a ring of smugglers that had been moving weapon and drug contraband into the Citadel.
[[File:TalosInArmor.jpg|thumb|200px|right|''Tal'ika'' on an "Anti-Jedi" combat exercise with his new family]]
 
Working in tandem, Talos and Marick tracked the ring's inside man to the [[Giletta Spaceport]], Estle's main transport hub. The inside man himself was one Nathaniel Dunkirk, a Captain in the Dajorra Defence Force and a former Dark Jedi of Arcona. With this information in hand, the pair created an elaborate strategy to bring Captain Dunkirk to justice...Oblivion style. Agent Omerta would take the place of one of Dunkirk's staff officers, First Lieutenant Jonathan Hale, and would be tasked with bringing Nathaniel to Giletta's Freight Terminal, where Marick would be waiting with a landspeeder to whisk Defence Captain Dunkirk away to Oblivion's safehouse.
 
The plan went off without a hitch, true to Oblivion's professional operating standard, and four days after the contract had been assigned, Nathaniel Dunkirk had been interrogated and summarily executed, with vital information about the smuggling ring being passed onto the Dajorra Intelligence Agency. As for Marick and Talos, both were lauded, albeit privately; for Captain Del'Abbot, this was a promotion to the rank of Obelisk Prelate and for Talos Omerta, he was appointed to the position of the Vice-Captain of Oblivion Brigade, in which he would serve as Marick's second-in-command.
 
===  Strong...Army Strong  ===
{{Quote|Your experience and knowledge would be...beneficial. You will be compensated, of course|Aedile Wuntila to Talos Omerta, on helping found the Arcona Army Corps.}}
 
Shortly after Talos' appointment to the Vice-Captaincy of Oblivion Brigade, he was summoned to the office of his former counterpart and now superior, Wuntila Zratian Entar. Once there, the Human-Theelin informed Talos of a massive initiative that would bring the Dajorra System's defenses up to date while also providing an outlet for the Force-Sensitive members of Arcona. Better yet, the entire Initiative would be run off of the Shadesworn Project that Talos undertook for his Clan in 33 ABY, acting as the Head Researcher into Selen's first Force-Sensitive inhabitants.
[[File:AArmy.png|thumb|150px|left|The distinctive unit insignia of the Arcona Army Corps]]
 
Wuntila then explained the initiative...that of creating a new Military, one to replace the outdated [[Dajorra Defence Force]] and the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]]. The new military would be more traditional, consisiting of three separate branches, or corps; the Army Corp, the Naval Corp, the Starfighter Corp. The final branch would be the invite-only Dajorra Intelligence Agency, of which House Rollmaster and erstwhile Oblivion Agent Timeros Entar Arconae would be directing.
 
Along with Andrelious J. Inahj (who was heading the Starfighter Corp) and Wuntila himself (who was in charge of the Naval Corp), Omerta was given temporary control of ground-based resources, with the mandate to turn those resources, which included men, vehicles, and land, into a fully-functioning Army. He did so, in the process recruiting two very valuable military officers; one was Richor Mills, the former training mate of the pirate crew to which Talos belonged, and a Chiss named Jaco'be'lexo. These two would become Army Commander Ricor Mills, the training officer of the Corp, and Army General Jaco'be'lexo, the deputy commanding general of the entire Army Corps..
 
Two months passed, in which the General, Commander, and Sith formed a sort of triumvirate, and by the end of the eighth week, House Arcona had a fully-fledged Army Corps, with personnel joining almost immediately, both as new enlistees and those transferring their careers or commissions from the soon-to-be-defunct DDF and AEF. Talos' last act as Interim Leader of the Army was to present the new Army to not only Aedile Entar and Quaestor Erinos, but also to Dark Adept Sashar Erinos Arconae, who would be taking over the Army as the Major-General. It was at this ceremony that Wuntila made good on his word of compensation...less than 30 seconds after Talos had relinquished command to General Erinos, the latter turned around and offered Talos a commission in the Army.
 
It would be only the first stepping stone in what would eventually lead to Talos Omerta and Sashar Erinos becoming family.
 
===  In the Basement  ===
{{Quote|Good evening...Commissioner|Marick Del'Abbot to Talos Omerta, 34 ABY}}
 
In addition to his duties as an Army Officer, Talos would soon be taking on additional responsibilities as the second Commissioner of the [[Arcona Contract Bureau]]; succeeding his friend and Captain, Marick Del'Abbot, due to the Hapan's increasing importance in official Summit matters, Talos took over the day-to-day administration of the Bureau and became even more plugged into the lifeflow of Arcona as Housemates, both new and old, came to him to request contracts in everything from assassination to VIP protection.
 
Despite the immense amount of holowork that came with the job, Talos soon fell in love with it and, with the permission of his Summit, began to expand the Bureau's operational boundaries; soon, contractors found themselves fulfilling contracts on worlds as distant as Corulag and handling matters that were officially out of the purview of the Selenian government. The Bureau didn't go unnoticed however, and as contractors actions began to tip the scales in favor of House Arcona, more and more organizations, most shady and/or clandestine in nature, began subcontracting jobs to Talos and the Bureau.
 
For the most part, Talos accepted all of the subcontracting work, as he had encountered many of the organizations either previously in his Brotherhood career or elsewhere during his life, but he religiously adhered to one rule:
 
''"No Contract Could Ever Endanger House Arcona or the Dark Jedi Brotherhood in any way whatsoever"''

===  A More Physical Approach  ===
{{Quote|Celahir, I need a favor|Talos to Celahir, late 34 ABY}}
 
During the Brotherhood Vendetta known as "Disorder", Talos Omerta realized that, as much as he loved the clandestine (and often illict) ways in which Oblivion Brigade conducted their business, he was going to get hurt in the field unless he started to embrace a more physical and upfront fighting style.
 
Because Fate can be a cruel mistress, Talos' prediction came true; while marching on the Temple Boyna with the a platoon of his brethren Sith and their conscripted troopers, they came under fire from a Krath patrol group and the young Humanoid would have surely died on the sandy plains of Antei, had he not given into the base temptations of the Dark Side and pulled a Sith Trooper in front of him, to absorb the blaster fire of a Mechu-Deru enhanced battle droid. Omerta and his platoon escaped death that day and before the Dark Jedi Knight found any more danger, the Vendetta was called to a halt, with the revelation that Jedi Master [[Michael Halcyon]] was the true catalyst behind the Order War. The Order Armadas were disbanded and Houses reformed, with Talos rejoining his beloved Arconan brethren on Selen.
 
Talos spent the "down-time", if it could be called that, developing a new outlook on combat. While he would still continue to serve as the Oblivion Brigade's Vice-Captain, he decided that he would start to split his time and talents between Black Operations and a more overt way to fight, something that would take advantage of his new-found powers, granted to him by his promotion to Sith Warrior. And who better to learn from, he decided, than the most fearsome warriors the galaxy had ever known -- the [[starwars: Mandalorians|Mandalorians]].
 
====  Proving  ====
As it so happened, some of House Arcona's most steadfast and loyal vassals were members of a group called the Erinos, which was not only a family of master combatants, but also of Mandalorian Force-Adepts. And one of their newer members was recently retired Consul Celahir Erinos, who Talos befriended during their time together in House Qel-Droma, when the Great Clans still existed, and then further as Rollmaster and Quaestor of House Arcona.
 
Confident in his friendship with the Kiffar, Talos approached Celahir in late 34 ABY and asked, more accurately begged, to be taken under one of the Erinos' wings and taught how to properly fight -- in other words, be trained as a Mandalorian. Flattered and amused, Celahir gave his consent and conferred with the rest of his brethren. Word came a day later that the Erinos had decided to accept Talos into a sort of improvised "training class" along with fellow Arconans [[Maaks]] and Voden Arijin.
 
===  Earning The Armor ===
{{Quote|Brother to brother, in life..and death. From now until the day the Manda calls us home, I am yours|Words spoken at the Erinos Induction Ceremony}}
 
Training as a Mandalorian was anything but easy, especially for Talos and Maaks, who were not born into the Mandalorian way. On the orders of former Consul-and-current-Soulfire Sergeant, Sashar Erinos, the three Erinos trainees had been relocated to the [[Venku Range]], the site of the Erinos homestead on the planet of [[Arconae Primus]]. Once settled into their new home, Sashar further decreed that the new recruits were to be stripped of everything except their smallclothes and, for Talos and Voden, their lightsabers, promising that from this point forward, anything that the trio would need would come from the family.
 
And he was right; everything from the simple brown fatigues that the three wore during training excercises, to their blaster weapons (A280 rifles and SSK-7s), training armor, and hygenic items, were provided from the family's bounty. This included food, which was brought in one of two ways:
# The recruit trio, when not running combat training operations or doing other household chores around the Range, were sent hunting, bid not to return until they had enough meat to serve the entire family for a week.
# Under the supervision of either Sashar, Celahir, or Malidir (Zandro remained on Selen, ruling Arcona was Consul and Juda was off tracking down Dash Kuatir), either Talos, Maaks, or Voden would take turns going out into the Venku Range's pastures to pick an animal to kill and prepare for that week's meal.
 
Life as a Mandalorian trainee soon took on a predictable, but nonetheless tiring, pattern; at exactly 0600 on Mondays-Thursday, Sashar's bellowing voice would jolt Talos, Maaks, and Voden from their lean-to and signal that they had 15 minutes to wash, dress in their fatigues, and assemble outside the lean-to. From there, they would jog a mile around the perimiter of the compound before reporting to the homestead's outdoor firing range and battle circle (the order would switch day-to-day).
 
In the afternoons, the trio would run simulated combat operations with all of the Erinos that were present (it was hardly the same group twice, except for Sashar and Malidir). These simulations furthered the recruit's knowledge and prowess with small squad tactics in a wide array of settings, as Arconae Primus' unique land features lent the Erinos family an advantage; the ancient ruins that dotted the planet, as well as the Venku Range itself, could be set up to serve as a mock-urban environment, while the forests and swamps provided a harder, more natural challenge, and finally the open fields and mountains trained the Talos and the two other would-be Mandalorians in invasion tactics and also environmental survival.
 
On Fridays, the recruit's had the day off from training...however, the Mandalorian definition of "having the day off" varies drastically from it's galactic definition; instead of lounging in a chair and watching the HoloNet, or going out to the various clubs to get drunk and whore, Talos and his two friends spent their time studying both Erinos and Mandalorian history, topographical maps of the Dajorra System's planets, as well as doing household chores around the Range. As Talos quickly learned, just because their days weren't spent holding a blaster didn't mean they were any less strenuous.
 
And the last two days of the galactic week, Saturday and Sunday, were blocked off. These were the days that Talos, Maaks, and Voden were to return to House Arcona, both to fulfill their oaths as Dark Jedi of the Shadow House but also to give them true time to rest and recover, as the whole cycle began again at 0600 the following day.
 
And then after two consecutive months of training, both the mind and body,...it was over.
 
=== Brother to Brother===
On a beautiful evening in early 35 ABY, mere days before Arcona would learn that they had regained Clan status, Talos Omerta, and his two comrades, Maaks and Voden Arijin, were summoned to the main homestead in the Erinos compound. Unlike the numerous amount of hours that the trio had spent there during training, the homestead was different. The skylights were closed, the windows had their blinds shut, and the soft halogenic lighting had been turned off in favor of a considerable fire burning in the center hearth; indeed, the only normal thing about the homestead was its inhabitants, the Erinos Mandalorians, who were all clad in their ''beskar'gam'', helmets and all.
 
There was also another major difference about this visit than all the rest...it was deadly quiet, with the exception of the crackling fire. That didn't last long however, as once all three potential Erinos were in the common room, the gray-armored man standing in the middle of the line of Erinos removed his helmet and spoke.
 
Sashar Erinos Arconae bid the three to step close to the fire, after which the Erinos formed a circle around them. Sashar then further ordered Talos to take a step forward, so that he was closest to Sashar. The Dark Adept, as he was wont to do, wasted no time in saying the following:
 
''Brother to Brother, in life..and death. From now until the day that the Manda calls us home, I am yours''
 
Initially confused, Talos quickly realized that he had completed his training...that he was being fully welcomed into the Erinos. After Sashar had finished saying those words, he moved Talos to the right, where Malidir was standing. The grizzled Soulfire commando, farmer, and Arconae echoed Sashar's words and revealed a white Mandalorian breastplate, which he attached to the flightsuit that Talos was wearing. And then, mirroring his Sergeant, Malidir passed him on to Zandro, who said the same words, his face one big smile, and then presented Talos with a left pauldron to add to his flightsuit.
 
Talos moved around the circle of Erinos, with Maaks going through the same process and Voden after him. The young Humanoid visited Celahir next (who gave him the matching right pauldron) then Juda (who gave him a set of gauntlets), then Kieran (the left greave), followed by Xayun (the right greave), then Archean (the boots). Finally, Talos had completed the circle and been welcomed into the Erinos Family by all of its members, only to find himself once again in front of their, now his, new Patriarch.
 
But unlike before, Sashar had no words to say; he only smiled before presenting Talos with the final, and most important, piece of Mandalorian armor...the ''buy'ce'', or helmet. It to was white, like the seven other pieces he now wore, and he took the helmet with a sort of reverance, before slipping it on over his head and moving out of the way, so that Maaks could receive his helmet.
 
And that was that, when the three had entered the homestead, they had been Talos Omerta, Maaks Miraluka, and Voden Arijin. But now, those three people were gone, replaced by people who were not only physically but mentally stronger than before. They were replaced by Erinos.

=== Risen from the Ashes ===
{{quote|It's as I promised, vod|Celahir Erinos to Talos Erinos, upon Arcona's reinstatement as a Clan}}
 
==== Ad Infinitum ====
 
==  Appearance and Personality ==
Talos Erinos stands on the very cusp of six feet (5'11.5) and weighs just about 145 lbs, most of which is toned muscle, due to the rigor of his life as a Mandalorian as well as the harsh treatment he endured when serving out his year long sentence on Yacko-1. His complexion is very fair and refuses to keep any sort of tan, despite the hours that Talos has spent outdoors, both on military operations and for pleasure. Nevertheless, this compliments his short-cropped black hair and ice-blue eyes nicely, lending him an air of dangerous importance, something that Talos has been working hard to portray since his ascension to the Aedileship of House Galeres.[[File:SlayerObeliskRed.jpg|130px|left|thumb|Talos' current lightsaber]]
 
Ever since being sent to Yacko-1 for a year, Talos' behavior has taken on two distinct sides; while doctors and the various medical specialists of the galaxy would call this being bi-polar, it's not. Rather, Talos has one behavior for when he is on official business, which is calm and collected and has his voice keeping (mostly) to an even level. In this behavior, Talos is extremely polite and charming, (though his very presence and Force signature has an underlying sense of danger to it) and he is constantly aware of Clan protocol, meaning that he is respectful to both superiors and subordinates, but is not afraid to voice his own opinions or use his position (Galeres Aedile and Army Lieutenant) to ensure that his demands are met.
 
Then there is the other side....Most likely stemming from his year on Yacko-1, where he was among not only the Brotherhood's worst criminals, but also the entire Antei System's, Talos is gruff and callous. While he remains respectful of his superiors, he is very blunt and "to-the-point", something that has served him well since being adopted as a Mandalorian, and often uses foul language and cracks bawdy jokes, which usually deal with some of Selen or Eldar's more "well-known" women.
 
The first behavior is the one that Talos' fellow Arconans have seen the most of and it seems to be the one that he prefers, hoping one day to crush out the "rougher" side and be a handsome, charming, but skilled man 100% of the time. However, as his family can attest, Talos doesn't seem to be in any hurry to achieve the aforementioned goal.
 
=== Attire ===
[[File:ShadeswornSithCloak.jpg|170px|right|thumb|Talos' set of Shadesworn Robes]]
 
As a Mandalorian, Talos is perfectly comfortable fighting in the heavy armor of his adopted kind, and, under the tutelage of masters such as Sashar Erinos, is quickly becoming an adept with an array of blaster weaponry. The young Humanoid's Mandalorian armor, while originally white when presented to him by the Erinos upon his induction into the Family, has been repainted black and cobalt blue, signifying the Mandalorian ethos of Vengeance (black) and Loyalty (blue) and it is this attire that Talos religiously wears in times of extended conflict. The armor itself is made of a mix of durasteel and duraplast, as ''beskar'', the nigh invincibile Mandalorian iron, has become one of the hardest minerals to obtain. The armor's only decorations, other than the increasing number of weapon scars, are three distinct sigils; one is the Erinos Family crest, displayed on the right pauldron, the second is Talos' own distinctive insignia, that of four chains linked by a central ring (worn on the crown of his ''buy'ce''). The final symbol is a black snake, which is depicted in a striking position on the armor's right pectoral.
 
However, Talos really only wears his Mandalorian armor during times of war or training, and has recently been seen in the robes of a Shadesworn, which are a constant source of pride for the Shadow Clan, as these exquisitely crafted robes were one of the many gifts that the [[Dark Council]] bestowed upon Clan Arcona when they achieved victory in the [[Ninth Great Jedi War]].
 
==== Switch in Attire ====
No-one is quite sure exactly what was the catalyst behind Talos' switch of preference, from armor to robes. While he insists that it is just him maturing and stepping into his role as a leader and face of Arcona, that is not entirely true. The real reason is that while on Yacko-1, Talos realized that any person could don a suit of armor, be they soldiers, guards, police, civilians, or even criminals, and receive a major boost in their chance of survival if they were to engage in battle...the same could not be said for people who wore simple garments, such as robes. It took quite a bit of skill and nerve to be able to march into war with your only protection being robes and expect to survive...it set aside that group from everyone else, marked them as being something truly special.
 
Talos wanted that, to be special, more than anything; it was a need derived of his stay on Yacko-1, where he wasn't the strongest, smartest, or funniest. He swore that he would prove better in combative skill, honing his combat forrms and natural skill instead of relying on the advantage of armor.
 
However, this does not mean that Talos is ignorant of the uses of armor; whenever he is with his family, the Erinos, or in situations where armor would prove more useful, such as times of war, training, or intimidation he dons his ''beskar'gam''.
 
=== Distinguishing Marks ===
==== Cranial Implants ====
One of the things that made Talos so appealing to the Shadesworn Terror Cell, was his cranial implants. Originally installed to prevent him from dying when he was shot in the head during a botched T&O raid on Corulag, Talos later underwent modification surgery to have the implants increase his memory space; this is accomplished by the implants taking the form of a small datacore, literally a second brain, that was installed somewhere near the left frontal lobe.
 
The surgery was done systematically and professionally, and the only evidence that Talos was ever operated on is a small, curved piece of alumabronze and duranium on his left temple that covers the surgery site.

Talos is a Sith Battlemaster, currently sworn to House Karness Muur of Clan Plagueis. A veteran of the Dark Brotherhood, Talos was a loyal vassal of Clan Arcona for almost a decade before vanishing after the War of the Three Families. Returning from his home planet of Kiffex in 37 ABY, Talos joined the Ascendent Clan at the dawn of the Brotherhood's renewed conflict with the Collective.

Character Profile

Appearance & Apparel

Appearance

Overall attractive, Talos is a fairly average Kiffar male by first glance. In his early thirties, Talos has been in peak physical condition for over half his life, first as an athlete and later as a law enforcement officer and tactical team operator; he religiously works to maintain his broad chest, defined shoulders, powerful arms, and small tree-trunk like legs with an intense physical training program. His two most noticeable features are his uniquely colored eyes, green-gray similar to a restless ocean, and the traditional Kiffar male tattoos running in two gold bands from under his left eye, across his nose, and ending under his right eye. Steel-gray and black hair is kept neatly maintained in rows at shoulder length, offering a picture of both youthful energy and experienced professionalism; two shocks of white hair at either temple are one of the few indications of Talos' wisdom and experience.

Apparel

Talos is a firm believer in dressing for the situation, rather than the tradition. Choosing to eschew the traditional Brotherhood regalia at this time, Talos' regular attire consists of a dark gray and crimson utility suit with a betaplast half-plate covering his upper chest. The torso area of the utility suit is double-stitched and able to ward off some bladed weapons while still prioritizing mobility. A thigh-drop holster covers his right thigh, connected to a simple belt rig that holds his lightsaber, comlink, and other pertinent equipment.
