--------------------
Personality: The most notable thing about Bannon is that he’s always got a smile on his face. Although this may not indicate that he’s happy, it’s hard to shake from his face. Having grown up under different rules than the rest of society, Bannon has a habit of being inappropriate at times. It would be understandable if this was accidental, but it’s not. True, he sometimes forgets himself and where he is, but there are times when he purposely is too friendly with someone for his own amusement or comfort. Although not necessarily the happy-go-lucky type, Bannon often likes to tease friends. It amuses him to see people blush or react over things he used to find commonplace. In return, Franz likes to receive pain and give pain, he has sadomasochistic traits that associate him as a freak. Overall, Bannon loves power and is typically rather happy regardless of the situation. It’s hard to depress him, and hope is something he always retains, but he has moments of sadness. There are times that he reminisces about his past and that has a tendency to bring his mood down, but never takes the smile away from his face.
Coming from such a different life style, Bannon has a 'black box' of sorts in his brain. It’s a box that he keeps shoved far away from his active consciousness, but occasionally brings it closer if he feels that switching persona would be advantageous to him. Bannon's comfort zone still occasionally lies in dominance, and if unable to reconcile another action, he forces his dominating role into the person. Typically Bannon knows how to use a blend of his previous occupation and his newfound freedom to function, but occasionally gets lost in the past. He believes his fate to be tied to the current war, and doesn’t know what he will do when it ends and he loses his usefulness.
Likes: Philosophy, death, receiving pain, giving pain, mutilation, macabre things, and sexually arousing things that has to do with the former. Weirdly enough, he doesn't even mind Light siders.
Dislikes: Hate? Why hate when you can love all that is around you? Hate only those who make your life a living heaven!
Crushes: Fear, respect, and resistance. He likes a good challenge in hunting his 'preys'. For an odd reason, he has a thing for Wookie's.
--------------------
Force Abilities:
- Force Resuscitation: This is an extremely rare Force power that allowed the user to bring others back to life from the brink of death with the power of the dark side of the Force. This also can be used to kill by turning this energy into a corrupting factor.
- Bannon's Force Deflection: Bannon has refined the force deflection to a point, it would form a protective coating around him that he can manifest strongly around his arm and leg regions, able to grasp high heated energy with his barehands if need be. It can be breached unfortunately by force suppression or other aggressively powerful force techniques. This also acts as a force immunity, being the most upgraded version.
- Force storm: Force Storm was a Force lightning variant. The user would raise his palm upward and would create, through the Force, an explosion of electrical energy directed at all foes in the vicinity. It was used by both the Sith and Dark Jedi during the Jedi Civil War. It also appeared as a tornado of energy which created a great disturbance in the Force. Jedi could also join together to create a Force storm, though its use was frowned upon by more orthodox Jedi.
Unlike the Force lightning, Force Storm was not limited to attacking enemies in one direction, as it affected all foes within a certain radius from the user.
- Force Cloak: As a Sith Assassin, Bannon has the natural ability to cloak himself and camouflage into surroundings, essentially making him invisible, with the exception of giving off a few force emissions that would betray his location were one sharp enough to notice it. Force users with this rare ability could use the Force to photokinetically bend light around themselves, rendering them invisible to others. Being normally immune to Force-based illusions.
- Drain Knowledge: Drain Knowledge was a dark side ability used to extract knowledge out of a sentient without his or her consent. Beyond simple reading of thoughts, the Drain Knowledge ability disrupted the Force to steal deep memories and information in a violent and merciless way. Such a process might damage the subject psychologically.
Specialties: His specialties lies in brutal and unrefined Sith close-quarter combat and stealth! Another thing he is specializing in is piloting ships, and hacking into computers. Given how screwed up his head is, that's actually a grand feat!
History: Born to a Mandolorian bounty hunter and a Zeltor bounty hunter in Dantooine, Bannon was raised to be a bounty hunter at a relatively early age. He was left to wander around Dantooine after his parents died during a Bounty hunting assignment. When he has come of age and maturity, Bannon has grown into a handsome man, so handsome, he attracted the attention of a certain Jedi, she was not only allured by his handsome looks, but also by his captivatingly high force sensitivity! It was during a certain war between the Sith and the Jedi, that Bannon was put into training.
Everyday, Bannon was pushed off of his back and trained like a whipped dog by the Jedi Master, she was enforcing the notions of the Jedi Code into him, day by day until Bannon was adept enough in the force to use it, and the best part about it was that he learnt it in his youthful days, a very young age indeed! Becoming a Padawan at just the mere age of 8, and eventually, becoming a Jedi Knight at the age of 12.
17 is where he started to crack up. He was perfectly sane before that. He had constant visions of becoming a Jedi Master, but turn after turn, he was denied the rank. He was too passionate, too much into love, love for his Jedi Master. Love for his school. Love for becoming the epitome of Jedi Sentinals. That love with his Jedi Master was given a further physical manifestation through bed. Much to his dismay, he has gotten himself a child, and had to hide that by killing his Jedi Master out of anxiety.
Further down the road, he began to degrade, becoming paler, feeling hate and misery inside his heart. When the time came, the Jedi council found out of his relationship and deeds, sending a group of other Jedi Knights to arrest him. This resulted in him resisting arrest, which in turn... ended up in a massacre of Jedi Knights! He was just too dangerous... that danger extended with his mind slipping into a state of mania. No longer he was pale but he had another thing! The Sith's eyes. He can't hide his nature anymore. Simply leaving Dantooine not out of fear, but out of a screwed up notion of conquering a world all on his own despite his little combat experience but high and strenuous amounts of training!
That planet was Tatooine, he just liked the name.
Being a stow-away in a ship, he managed to hide right up until it landed, another result of a massacre, but this time, he was kicked out of a planet by a group of vigilante's and a patrolling Jedi, fleeing to a ship where it took off to Manaan... and so... he stayed there for just about three years doing absolutely nothing but hiding there, working a bit, sure. But still hiding from everyone, hiding his nature, hiding his hidden power, and hiding his presence.
Funny thing is that he has the power equalling to a Sith Lord, and he doesn't even know it! Perhaps someone of equal powers will sense his great midi-chlorian count and will learn of the hidden potential this man has!
Appearance: Being sensual and sleek in appearance, Bannon is very thin in his build and stands 5' 9'' feet tall. His face is very handsome in appearance, but has the "psychopath's" vibe that he would give off from the eery smile he has to his lips, and that lecherous stare that knows no bound. His hands are built for sensation, there is no sorts of roughness in it, only soft sensual feelings that would be emitted. His hair is brunette, and his ethnicity is that of a Mandolorian and Zeltron ethnic group but easily confused with humans.
Sample Chapter: RP sample from BO: The vanity mirror reflected Franz's almost empty expression as he sat before it, running a brush through his short blonde hair. He was well-rested and he healthy, but there wasn’t much he could do about it at the moment. Now he felt the need to do something. Satisfied that his hair was properly brushed, Franz set the brush down and started to fix his hair. It was his nightly routine.
"I like it left down. You should know that." It was his mistress's voice in his ear, and Franz nodded, sliding his fingers through his hair again to fix it. The same hands that had stopped his routine led him to the window. The hands were oddly gentle as they caressed Franz's pale cheeks while his Mistress's mouth descended to his ear. "I have a job for you." His mistress purred before lowering to nip along his neck. Her hands were soft tonight as they moved over his now arm, playing his body like a finely tuned instrument. One he tuned himself. "There is a storm brewing up in Karakura. Aid them, and I will reward you handsomely."
The mistress was being oddly gentle tonight. Franz didn’t know if she was reluctant to let him go, worried about the mission, or if it was completely unrelated. Regardless of where his Mistress's sudden tenderness had come from, Franz wasn’t complaining. He just nodded, ever compliant to his Mistress, and let his mind wander as Helen used him as she pleased.
Karakura town. That was half way around the world. Franz hadn't been out of the country without his Mistress or a friend of his as an escort, and now he was being sent around the world alone. Did that mean she trusted him? Trust probably wasn't the right word. She probably just knew that Franz was bound to her. Where else would he go? What else could he do? She was all Franz knew, and it was true. Still, Franz was glad to go for more reasons that just to please his Mistress. It was different than this. Maybe better, maybe worse, but different was a good start. Maybe it would be a fresh start. All alone. Free. Maybe.
Other: He doesn't know much about the Sith and has a high training experience that equals him to that of a Master, but no actual combative experience besides massacres. His lack of training in Manaan made his skills decay, making him a Dark Jedi with a very high potential in becoming very powerful.
