Born to a Father who was a decorated officer in CorSec, and his Mother who was a successful director of holovids and other visual arts, Jakk was setup by his parents from an early age to become anything that he wanted... Except like his “religious zealot” of a Grandfather.  Currently a member of Ternion Corp and also the Altisian Jedi Order this seams to have not been what the Living Force had in mind for him.  Jakk's father was often at work as he grew up, and though present when he was able, Jakk often ended up traveling with his Mother on her jobsites for 'on location' filming, banquet dinners, award ceremonies, and other such activities.
Jakk Emernet has been many things in his life so far.  Starting out as the son of two relatively well known Corellian parents. Joining CorSec as a junior officer, an anti-slaver, a detective, a traveling swordsman and student of The Living Force.  Now he is a member of the Ternion Corps, and of the Altisian Jedi Order.


==Early Life on Corellia==
==Life before Darkness==


Jakk Horn Emernet was born in Y -9 Day 177 on the planet of [[Corellia]], in the City of Kor Vella of planet grid 9,4 at 18:59:34.  He was born to his father Yaxon Ira Emernet and his mother Lisha Denya Emernet.  As one might recognize, if they are familiar with note worthy Corellians, his father and mother are respectively a Decorated CorSec officer and a Famous Holovid director and Producer.  This influenced his early life greatly.  Through travel Jakk had visited over three dozen planets from [[Shili]] to [[Tatooine]] by the time he was an adult, and grew to appreciate the many different cultures that he encountered.  He particularly made friends on the planet of [[Champala]] as a young boy and even to this day keeps many of those contacts close.  Once an adult however most of his living was done on Corellia, at least for the first few years.  Like his father he joined CorSec, but unlike his father who had been part of the law and order divisions of CorSec, Jakk joined the management division and gained quite the reputation with his peers and those above him.  Though that is not to say he shied away from the more dangerous assignments.  Jakk also trained in the Intelligence Division of CorSec and learned how to handle almost any blaster, most melee weapons, and even hand to hand combat.  Jakk was also awarded a 2nd Degree Blood Stripe for an event that remains classified, however it is known that this event directly lead to Jakk having a prosthetic left leg from just above his knee down.
Jakk Horn Emernet was born in Year -9 Day 177 on the planet of Corellia, in the City of Kor Vella on the planets grid square 9,4 at the galactic standard time of 18:59:34.  He was born to his Mother Lisha Denya Emernet, and his father Yaxon Ira Emerent.  His mother was a semi-famous director and producer of many holovids, mainly historically based stories and educational documentaries.  His father was a well decorated officer of CorSec's intelligence division, however Yaxon Emernet passed away tragically, while Jakk was only 8 years old, in an operation attempting to stop a group of separatist operatives CorSec had found on planet.


==The Step into Darkness==
As such much of his life he was traveling with his mother on her many holovid shoots that often were done on location.  From Shili to Tatooine Jakk visited over three dozen different locations before he reached adulthood.  His Mother was very intent on him learning to appreciate all the cultures that they were able to experience, and as such he developed an open and friendly social attitude towards others regardless of differences.  As a direct result of this he still holds many friends across the galaxy from his youth and attempts to visit them often.  As Jakk got older he even helped in the productions of his mothers, in what capacity was allowed, and learned much about the entertainment industries throughout the galaxy.


He was exactly who he was supposed to be, at least according to his parents.  However, comments started to be said from others in CorSec.  Things like "You remind me of your Grandfather." or "Apple doesn't fall far from the tree in your family, just like your Grandpa.".  These comments naturally sparked an interest in Jakk to discover more about his Grandfather, as his parents had always refused to talk about him or even the reason for the estrangement always insisting that it was for his own good to simply forget about his Grandfather.  Through some digging, and help from some of his peers in CorSec Intelligence, Jakk learned that his Grandfather had once fought in the [[Clone Wars]].  He found that his Grandfather had been force sensitive and a member of the [[Jedi Order]] of that time, and that once the empire rose to power he had gone into hiding instead of turn to serve the Empire.  Bringing this information to his parents and asking for further information his parents finally, in a private conversation and in hushed tones, told him they had nothing against his Grandfather but simply needed to keep connection with him separated for their families sake under the [[Galactic Empire]]'s rule in the Corellian System.  They gave him all the information they had on his Grandfather though it wasn't much.  Jakk took what information he had, and left Corellia on his own terms, in search of his Grandfather that by all records was still alive out there somewhere.  It took about a years search, but finally Jakk found him, living on the planet [[Tamra II]] in the distant [[Outer Rim]].  His Grandfather instantly recognized Jakk and welcomed him  It was in those following years that Jakk's Grandfather discovered with quiet delight that he, Jakk Emernet, was Force Sensitive as well.  His Grandfather taught him only the basics: how the Living Force connected every living thing, how to use it for assistance in times of distress, even a few skills using Telekinesis and Telepathic abilities.  However, his Grandfather refused to train Jakk beyond these basic skills.  He provided him some training materials, but insisted that "The Living Force has shown me repeatedly that it will be another who teaches you to wield the Living Force to a far greater manner as I once did.  An individual who will be both a mentor and friend to you.".  In the year 21 Jakk's Grandfather passed away of natural causes from old age.  Jakk left Tamra II with what belongings he had and started to make his own way in the galaxy.
His mother also took the time to teach him about his family history.  He learned that he had a well known Grandfather who had fought in the Clone Wars, and though no one knew what had happened to him many believed he was still alive.  However, his Grandfather was also a known Jedi.  This made it so he was not likely to be seen in Imperial Union space, and the likely hood of him being in some version of hiding in the outer rim was a good possibility.  This was something that shaped and molded the choices and actions of Jakk in years to come.


== Y9 - Y21: ==


==Naboo and the Handmaiden==
At the age of 18 Jakk left home, to make his own way in the universe.  He was not content to simply stay on Corellia, his early life had taught him that there was so much more to the Universe.  He left with a CR-90 Corvette that he had saved and bought for himself, as well as hiring a small crew, and went to find his own place in the universe with his mother's blessing.


Jakk found himself living on the planet [[Naboo]] in late Y21.  There he worked as little more than a common business supervisor for a few different businesses in the year he spent on Naboo.  He amassed a decent personal wealth through his hard work, though the work quickly became drudgery for Jakk who had been shown too much of the galaxy by the Living Force to be content to stay in this one place for long.  However, the locals noticed his abilities were more than common, and not just in the Living Force either, living on Naboo was another old CorSec agent who recognized him and what talents he had shown while in CorSec.  Jakk was soon contacted by the Naboo Royal Court on the night just before he had planned to leave Naboo to find some other opportunities.  Jakk's Intelligence training from CorSec was called upon when a member of the queen's handmaidens by the name of [[Kelci Takan]] became the target of a very aggressive stalker.  The criminal had even injured a few guards quite badly on two seperate occasions, and they had nearly no idea how to find the man who somehow avoided security cameras and left very little evidence to use as well. Jakk was tasked by the Naboo Royal Court to track down the stalker and bring him into custody of the local authorities.  After a few months of working to find the criminal, he succeeded.  It was not by design however, as the criminal had apparently sought him out in an attempt to eliminate his ever increasing attempts to locate the man.  The man, named Corran Covdien, and Jakk had a drawn out fight.  It was durring this fight that Jakk finally witnessed why this man had been able to avoid so many secuirity features.  He was a force sensitive as well, though something in his mind had turned him into something far more aggressive than Jakk had known the force could be.  His Grandfather had warned him of those who would use the Living Force for dark purposes, he however had not understood how literal this would be.  However, it seamed that Corran's training was incomplete just as Jakk's was, and the two ended in a draw that night with Corran managing to escape but not uninjured.  Jakk had been able to get his face on a security camera finally as well as collect some DNA from a cut Jakk had given Corran via his Vibroblade.  Corran was hunted for the next month by Jakk and a few Royal Guards that had been assigned to help him track the criminal down.  Corran's house was raided with no useful information gained, however this action seamed to turn the man desperate.  This time, he attempted to attack Kelci Takan directly.  Jakk however had been on his heels, as it were, in terms of his investigation.  Jakk arrived at Takan's quarters only moments after the attack had started.  Takan, though a handmaiden, was also just that.  Trained in combat in order to act as another layer of protection for the Queen, Takan had been able to delay Corran's assault.  However, his force abilities had almost given him the upper hand when Jakk arrived.  This time, and working with Takan in tandem in a suprisingly unpracticed display of teamwork, Corran was killed. Jakk was awarded recognition for his work, and though unintended in the beginning the amount of time he had spent interviewing, protecting, and otherwise working with the Handmaiden Kelci Takan lead to a strong friendship between them.  With a highly polished and Royal Guard issue brand new ELG-3A on his hip, and a new N1 Starfighter as well, Jakk finally left Naboo.
Jakk was young and wanting to make a difference in the universe.  He found his way into a life that some called piracy, and others called him a vigilante.  He joined a group of anti-slavers and begun disrupting the supply chains of many of the slave markets in the outer rim of the galaxy.  The operation was small, his CR-90 and a few gunboats was all the group consisted of for quite some time.  However, the group found themselves in the crosshairs of one of the larger groups who profited from the slave markets.  Zann Consortium, smaller than it is today, took direct actions against the group of self labeled freedom fighters.  The result was a grave loss of many in his group.  Jakk and the survivors went into hidding, finding protection and refuge inside of the New Republic.
 
Jakk was not fully invested in the New Republic's cause, he had grown up under Imperial Rule and though he has heard of many of the Galactic Empires atrocities he had never seen any directly.  At least none that his naïve view of the galaxy had realized as such.  He worked for the New Republic as a Freelancer, mainly hauling cargo for many years, eventually buying the needed materials and datacard to build himself a Corona-class Frigate.  This along with his CR-90 would continue to serve the New Republic in an indirect fashion until the downfall of the New Republic.  During the battles that waged across New Republic space, Jakk saw many things he never thought the Galactic Empire would do.  Attacking medical frigates, attacking civilian ports, and many other actions often considered criminal even during war.  It was on day 30 of Y21 that Jakk and his vessels assisted with the evacuation of survivors from Republica when it finally fell.  For the first time Jakk took direct actions against the Galactic Empire and its allies.  Gathering fleeing soldiers, pilots, politicians, civilians, and more into his Frigate and Corvette.  All the while fighting off TIE Fighters and other Imperial forces in pursuit of those fleeing the conflict.  Jakk directly saved 2 squadrons of fighters, 5 Light Freighters including a Medical Sprint Craft, gathered 3 escape pods from surrounding vessels as they were destroyed, and all those still aboard an Ataturk class space station that had been left behind by their assigned evacuation ships.  In total Jakk saved over 200 lives that day from the Imperial Union and the relentless pursuit of its forces.
 
Jakk took to old space lanes learned during his days anti-slaving, and eventually left his Corona Frigate to be used by the CIS.  Jakk, and many of those he saved, would go into hiding for nearly a year.


==The Searching Swordsman==
==The Searching Swordsman==


Jakk spent about a year working as a Freelance after his departure from Naboo.  He worked mainly for Galentro Heavy Works, though he refused to become part of their inner members due to his desire to seek out the force and further training.  During this time he continued to work on his swordmanship, a trait his Grandfather had suggested he improve.  Using a Vibroblade of the correct length, and as light as he could find it, he became quite deadly with the weapon.  He found himself using the weapon on many occasions at this time of his life.  Jakk in his wanderings between jobs for GHW became acquainted with a Lara Tinmin.  She had a life's mission, which was to end slavery in the galaxy.  Now Lara and Jakk both knew that was a very tall order, but they also both believed they could start making a difference.  Starting with a purchase of an unused Corona-Frigate that had been snatched off its shipyard during the fall of the New Republic and somehow ended up in some various private hands before they all decided the thing was not worth the operating costs to keep it crewed, Jakk took ownership of the basically untouched frigate and with Lara as its Commanding Officer found a crew, and started prowling the traffic lanes of well known slavers.  Jakk and his crew made quite a few enemies, and friends.  Jakk never dared to hit the larger, better equipped slave markets operated by larger organizations.  Instead he and his crew, most all of whom were once slaves and volunteered to help Jakk with this mission, focused on smaller operations.  Most of which he and his often titled “Pirates” were able to damage enough to the point of shutting down.  However, there came a moment that seamed as if fate had finally decided this operation was no longer in its favor.  Jakk had gone away to pursue formal training in the force with the Jedi Order under Master [[Vir Calder]], and while he was gone Lara and the crew ran into a trap set by a smaller slaver group, backed by Eidola Pirates.  Lara, Jakk's ship, and his crew made it out but not without losses.  Four squadrons of fighters had become two, and many gunships that had once been part of the operations were no more as well.  Once Jakk was returned from his training he found a demoralized crew, and Lara had become timid in her willingness to keep fighting if they had drawn the attention of Eidola.  She was not willing to risk the crew on suicide missions.  Everything to that point had been operations where Lara, Jakk, and there crew, had been decidedly on the upper hand to avoid such loss.  Anti-slaving operations were put on hold, via an unanimous vote by the crew.  Jakk had been shown a vision during his meditation in the force the night after the vote had passed.  In his vision he had become something from legend and myth, a knight with a sword of indigo fire which he used to protect the defenseless from those who would wield the darkness as a weapon against them.  Jakk set off to discover and find himself some Kyber Crystals to construct his own lightsaber. While on this misison, a few of the crew had volunteered to come with him though he had insisted that they were not needed, he found it hard to not allow them along as they were all friends of his as were most of his crew.  These particular crew declared they would simply act as security for Jakk in case something happened.  This was a lie however, while meditating on a cliff side on the planet Champala, trying to find any traces of a mystic cave system he had stumbled upon as a child, the crew that had come with him began a mutiny.  Attempting to commander Jakk's PLY 3000, and simply leave him on the planet, Jakk did not even break from his meditation.  He reached out with the force, and the ship was unable to raise more than a meter off the ground.  He also, after a moment, was able to simply turn the repulsor systems offline.  The ship back on the ground rather gently, Jakk confronted his once loyal crew.  They did not have much time for conversation however.  The event had drawn the attention of a large pack of Howlrunners from a nearby Cave.  These creatures attacked Jakk directly, as if drawn to attack him from his display in the force.  Jakk sensed these Howlrunners were not just average Howlrunners as they seamed.  The crew out of a need for survival fought with Jakk against the animals, however their efforts were quite ineffective for these Howlrunners were embued with the force.  Jakk through great effort defended his crew and defeated the Howlrunners after a long intense fight.  By the end of the impromptu battle, Jakk was slightly wounded, and four of his crew had been killed. Jakk, using the force, healed any remaining injuries of the survivors.  He however was in that moment pulled into a trance in the Living Force.  Later that same night Jakk awoke, his remaining crew were gone, but they had left him safely in his ship.  Clutched in his hand was his kyber crystal, and this was the beginning of Jakk's Lightsaber.  Now many months later, and though his time with the Jedi Order was extremely helpful, it was time for Jakk to find another path.  And so he wanders on, searching continuously to find a cause that needs his blade, or a people that need his help.
Jakk during this time of hiding, and deciding what to do next, would go in search of and ultimately find his Grandfather.  Who would reveal the beginnings of the ways of the Living Force to Jakk.  From there he would search out the Jedi Order and begin being taught by Altisian Jedi Master [[Vir Calder]].  He became sufficently trained to go no his journey to build his own lightsaber.  He took months to collect the needed parts, and would visit the planet of Champala to find his lightsaber's Kyber Crystal.  Jakk had spent a lot of time on Champala as a child, and he and other local children had found a series of caves that the locals all claimed to be haunted.  Jakk had always felt strange feelings from the caves, even heard voices calling to him when he was dared to go inside once by the other children.  Now, older and a bit wiser, he realized the caves were connected to the Living Force.  He encountered a group of Howlrunners when he visited the Caves this time.  They were either created by or imbued with the living force.  It was a trial, the force attempting to protect the caves from those who were not properly prepared.  Ultimatly Jakk would leave the planet, Kyber Crystal and shards in hand, and forge his personal lightsaber over the course of the next month.
 
He spent this month on the planet Naboo, he had been invited by an old friend to stay with them there while he finished his lightsaber.  During his stay he was recruited unexpectedly into the service of the local planetary government in an unofficial manner.  There was a local criminal who had been breaking into the Royal Palace on Theed, and though they had not damaged property, they had injured numerous guards that would attempt to stop their entry.  Why they were entering, and what they wanted, was unknown.  However it had been witnessed that this individual was force sensitive, hence the reason that the government approached Jakk.  The local government wanted this to go though less than official channels.  They did not want it to appear that they could not handle the planets security and cause undue burden to the planets controlling power.  The more Naboo could handle on its own, the better the locals would feel as well.  Over the next few weeks, working on this lightsaber during down time, Jakk finally located and ultimately captured the individual who was plaguing the Royal Palace.
 
==Ternion Corps==
 
Jakk would leave Naboo to return to his master and ultimately receiving commission as an officer in the Ternion Corps, to which his master was the commanding officer.  He was also made a member of the Altisian Jedi Order to continue his study of the Living Force, reaching the rank of Knight before the year's end.  The two most notable events with his Ternion Corps career thus far included the commissioning of a new Clones irregular unit, [[531st Ranger Battalion]], and serving as the acting commanding officer of the 62nd Airbourne Legion between Y23 D320 and Y24 D9.  He is currently assigned to the headquarters staff of Ternion Corps.


==Personal Life==
==Personal Life==


Since the end of his Anti-slaving operations, Jakk uses the Corona-Frigate ''Mournful Drake'' as his main living space.  Having converted much of the combat vessel to become more of a Luxury Yacht without it losing any of its combat capabilities.  The ship has an interesting history of its own that Jakk is quite proud of even if its days in combat are most likely at an end.  Jakk also commonly uses the Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 ''Howlrunner's Silence'' when he needs to move faster, or a smaller ship is needed.  He also has retained ownership of his Grandfather's place on Tamra II, though it has been some time since he went there in person.
Jakk has a very broad reaching personal life.  He has many friends from all walks of life, and is constantly looking to make more friends.  He keeps a circle of close friends with him on most occasions where appropriate to act both as advisors and to undertake tasks that he himself can not do.  Jakk is careful to insure that any of his friends that choose to work with or for him are treated fairly and equally when possible.
 
Jakk is described by those who meet him as thoughtful, energetic, and kind.  He is regarded as educated only slightly above the average sentient being in most cases, however he has a strong and quick memory as well as the ability to quickly put newly learned skill or information in order an into action.  This often gives him the description of "street smart over book smart".  Though his book smarts are nothing to be ashamed of either.
 
Jakk is only fluent in basic, but has learned a handful of phrases in other languages.  He is exceptionally talented in martial arts both hand to hand combat and using weapons.  He prefers non projectile weapons whenever possible.  As a Jedi Knight of the Altisian Jedi Order, he is most proficient with a lightsaber.  He can be seen practicing his lightsaber technique on his down time, as he finds the fluid movements and focus bring him a sort of meditative and relaxed state.  While he was training under his Jedi Master Vir Calder he was fond of the Form VII Juyo.  Since becoming a Knight however he has broadened his practices including some direct training from other Jedi Masters, and though he now could use any of the traditional forms of lightsaber combat, he still prefers Juyo.
 
Within the powers of the force Jakk is moderately proficient in all areas of the force, however his true talent shines in areas involving using or manipulating energy waves and forms.  He as been seen on multiple occasions using the force to deflect or absorb a blaster bolt or two before drawing his lightsaber.  The extent of his abilities to manipulate energy have led others to theorize that he might even be able to stop a lightsaber blade for a short time with his hands.  When this theory has been brought to his attention he simply responds "Hah, well I have no intention of testing that one any time soon." or some variation of such.
 
'''Notable personnel that one might often find in Jakk's company are listed below:'''
 
* '''Dannia Nabin (Corellian Female)''' - A friend from his home planet, Jakk employees Nabin for her excellent management skills.  She is the Chief Operations Officer for Jakk's Non-Profit "StarSage Nature Preservation Society" and is in charge of running things on his publicly available Zoo station where SNP commonly will nurse wounded or endangered animals back to health.  Returning them to the wild is safe, or providing them a safe home on the station if they can not be returned for one reason of another.
* '''Greg Sabber (Human Male)''' - A friend of Jakk's, they met at the fall of the New Republic during the early skirmishes.  Jakk, a freelance at the time, helped Greg to escape Republica on Day 30 when it was taken by the Galactic Empire.  Greg has since helped train and lead any infantry that has worked for Jakk Emernet, now the Commanding Officer of the 531st Ranger Battalion.  Greg is one of the few surviving Clones from the First generation of Clones.  Emerging from his birthing pod only days before Order 66 was issued, he never saw action under the Galactic Republic and though he saw some use by the Empire before they cast off the clones he never quite appreciated their treatment of his brothers.  He is now working with Ternion Corps and Jakk Emerent to bring Clones back into the universe to once again make a difference.
*'''Holly Elttaes (Hapan Female)''' - Another childhood friend of Jakk's, Holly is one of the most common people to be seen at Jakk's side.  Though Holly is slightly younger as children they would play with a group of children in the wild areas around Jakk's Patents' home.  One such occasion when they were 12 years old, they were playing in a forest, near a large lake.  Holly fell into the water at one point, and was attacked by a fully grown Dianoga.  Jakk came to her rescue with only a small knife in hand.  In the end both children survived, and though both were injured Jakk's injuries were to the point he lost his left eye, unable to be saved by local doctors.  Holly's family practices religious beliefs that include the adherence to what is commonly referred to as a "Life Debt".  Though Jakk refused to accept her demands to follow him while they were children, stating that the practice was not fair to a child.  Once Holly became an adult she sought Jakk out, and insisted he accept her religious views.  Jakk, not perfectly happy about it, accepted out of respect for her beliefs.  Besides, it wouldn't hurt to have someone watching his back from time to time.  Better that it was a friend.

Jakk has been in a few romantic relationships, and is currently in one with Kelci Takan.  They can often be found working together as their bond grows stronger with time.  He still employees Lara Tinmin as the commanding officer of his frigate, and has a few other close friends that also have come under his employment.  Risha Zainab is an old friend from Champala where they first met as children.  He also is commonly seen with: Reine Tamplin, and old Corellian CorSec friend that acts as his head of security.  Elamas Felidoron a male Caamasi who he was introduced to by Vir Calder, and works for Jakk as a scout. Charlena Urope a Twi'lek woman who works as his frigates lead engineer.
- Jakk's lightsaber has a purple blade.


Jakk has always held his lightsaber as precious since it was constructed.  Constructed of a mixture of Orichalc and Copper metals, as well as bearing a leather wrap that was part of his Grandfather's lightsaber, the weapons has three engravings upon its visage.  Near the emitter is the symbol of the Living Force, on the neck that seperates the emitter from the rest of the lightsaber is the inscription "May the Force Keep you" which is a meaningful family phrase passed down from his once Jedi Grandfather as well, and the third engraving is just above the pommel and is a symbol representing the ecliptic dualities that are the Son and Daughter of the Living Force mythology.  The Copper pommel is directly taken from his once very well used Vibroblade that was broken during his final fight with Corran Covdien on Naboo.  It is also worth note that his lightsaber has no external switch for activation.  Instead a small internal switch was crated by Jakk during the weapons construction.  This way only a force user can activate the weapon.  
- Jakk is an avid learner of all known lightsaber techniques and forms.  He favors Makashi and Djem So, and strongly favors Juyo.

Jakk Emernet has been many things in his life so far. Starting out as the son of two relatively well known Corellian parents. Joining CorSec as a junior officer, an anti-slaver, a detective, a traveling swordsman and student of The Living Force. Now he is a member of the Ternion Corps, and of the Altisian Jedi Order.

Life before Darkness

Jakk Horn Emernet was born in Year -9 Day 177 on the planet of Corellia, in the City of Kor Vella on the planets grid square 9,4 at the galactic standard time of 18:59:34. He was born to his Mother Lisha Denya Emernet, and his father Yaxon Ira Emerent. His mother was a semi-famous director and producer of many holovids, mainly historically based stories and educational documentaries. His father was a well decorated officer of CorSec's intelligence division, however Yaxon Emernet passed away tragically, while Jakk was only 8 years old, in an operation attempting to stop a group of separatist operatives CorSec had found on planet.

As such much of his life he was traveling with his mother on her many holovid shoots that often were done on location. From Shili to Tatooine Jakk visited over three dozen different locations before he reached adulthood. His Mother was very intent on him learning to appreciate all the cultures that they were able to experience, and as such he developed an open and friendly social attitude towards others regardless of differences. As a direct result of this he still holds many friends across the galaxy from his youth and attempts to visit them often. As Jakk got older he even helped in the productions of his mothers, in what capacity was allowed, and learned much about the entertainment industries throughout the galaxy.

His mother also took the time to teach him about his family history. He learned that he had a well known Grandfather who had fought in the Clone Wars, and though no one knew what had happened to him many believed he was still alive. However, his Grandfather was also a known Jedi. This made it so he was not likely to be seen in Imperial Union space, and the likely hood of him being in some version of hiding in the outer rim was a good possibility. This was something that shaped and molded the choices and actions of Jakk in years to come.

Y9 - Y21:

At the age of 18 Jakk left home, to make his own way in the universe. He was not content to simply stay on Corellia, his early life had taught him that there was so much more to the Universe. He left with a CR-90 Corvette that he had saved and bought for himself, as well as hiring a small crew, and went to find his own place in the universe with his mother's blessing.

Jakk was young and wanting to make a difference in the universe. He found his way into a life that some called piracy, and others called him a vigilante. He joined a group of anti-slavers and begun disrupting the supply chains of many of the slave markets in the outer rim of the galaxy. The operation was small, his CR-90 and a few gunboats was all the group consisted of for quite some time. However, the group found themselves in the crosshairs of one of the larger groups who profited from the slave markets. Zann Consortium, smaller than it is today, took direct actions against the group of self labeled freedom fighters. The result was a grave loss of many in his group. Jakk and the survivors went into hidding, finding protection and refuge inside of the New Republic.

Jakk was not fully invested in the New Republic's cause, he had grown up under Imperial Rule and though he has heard of many of the Galactic Empires atrocities he had never seen any directly. At least none that his naïve view of the galaxy had realized as such. He worked for the New Republic as a Freelancer, mainly hauling cargo for many years, eventually buying the needed materials and datacard to build himself a Corona-class Frigate. This along with his CR-90 would continue to serve the New Republic in an indirect fashion until the downfall of the New Republic. During the battles that waged across New Republic space, Jakk saw many things he never thought the Galactic Empire would do. Attacking medical frigates, attacking civilian ports, and many other actions often considered criminal even during war. It was on day 30 of Y21 that Jakk and his vessels assisted with the evacuation of survivors from Republica when it finally fell. For the first time Jakk took direct actions against the Galactic Empire and its allies. Gathering fleeing soldiers, pilots, politicians, civilians, and more into his Frigate and Corvette. All the while fighting off TIE Fighters and other Imperial forces in pursuit of those fleeing the conflict. Jakk directly saved 2 squadrons of fighters, 5 Light Freighters including a Medical Sprint Craft, gathered 3 escape pods from surrounding vessels as they were destroyed, and all those still aboard an Ataturk class space station that had been left behind by their assigned evacuation ships. In total Jakk saved over 200 lives that day from the Imperial Union and the relentless pursuit of its forces.

Jakk took to old space lanes learned during his days anti-slaving, and eventually left his Corona Frigate to be used by the CIS. Jakk, and many of those he saved, would go into hiding for nearly a year.

The Searching Swordsman

Jakk during this time of hiding, and deciding what to do next, would go in search of and ultimately find his Grandfather. Who would reveal the beginnings of the ways of the Living Force to Jakk. From there he would search out the Jedi Order and begin being taught by Altisian Jedi Master Vir Calder. He became sufficently trained to go no his journey to build his own lightsaber. He took months to collect the needed parts, and would visit the planet of Champala to find his lightsaber's Kyber Crystal. Jakk had spent a lot of time on Champala as a child, and he and other local children had found a series of caves that the locals all claimed to be haunted. Jakk had always felt strange feelings from the caves, even heard voices calling to him when he was dared to go inside once by the other children. Now, older and a bit wiser, he realized the caves were connected to the Living Force. He encountered a group of Howlrunners when he visited the Caves this time. They were either created by or imbued with the living force. It was a trial, the force attempting to protect the caves from those who were not properly prepared. Ultimatly Jakk would leave the planet, Kyber Crystal and shards in hand, and forge his personal lightsaber over the course of the next month.

He spent this month on the planet Naboo, he had been invited by an old friend to stay with them there while he finished his lightsaber. During his stay he was recruited unexpectedly into the service of the local planetary government in an unofficial manner. There was a local criminal who had been breaking into the Royal Palace on Theed, and though they had not damaged property, they had injured numerous guards that would attempt to stop their entry. Why they were entering, and what they wanted, was unknown. However it had been witnessed that this individual was force sensitive, hence the reason that the government approached Jakk. The local government wanted this to go though less than official channels. They did not want it to appear that they could not handle the planets security and cause undue burden to the planets controlling power. The more Naboo could handle on its own, the better the locals would feel as well. Over the next few weeks, working on this lightsaber during down time, Jakk finally located and ultimately captured the individual who was plaguing the Royal Palace.

Ternion Corps

Jakk would leave Naboo to return to his master and ultimately receiving commission as an officer in the Ternion Corps, to which his master was the commanding officer. He was also made a member of the Altisian Jedi Order to continue his study of the Living Force, reaching the rank of Knight before the year's end. The two most notable events with his Ternion Corps career thus far included the commissioning of a new Clones irregular unit, 531st Ranger Battalion, and serving as the acting commanding officer of the 62nd Airbourne Legion between Y23 D320 and Y24 D9. He is currently assigned to the headquarters staff of Ternion Corps.

Personal Life

Jakk has a very broad reaching personal life. He has many friends from all walks of life, and is constantly looking to make more friends. He keeps a circle of close friends with him on most occasions where appropriate to act both as advisors and to undertake tasks that he himself can not do. Jakk is careful to insure that any of his friends that choose to work with or for him are treated fairly and equally when possible.

Jakk is described by those who meet him as thoughtful, energetic, and kind. He is regarded as educated only slightly above the average sentient being in most cases, however he has a strong and quick memory as well as the ability to quickly put newly learned skill or information in order an into action. This often gives him the description of "street smart over book smart". Though his book smarts are nothing to be ashamed of either.

Jakk is only fluent in basic, but has learned a handful of phrases in other languages. He is exceptionally talented in martial arts both hand to hand combat and using weapons. He prefers non projectile weapons whenever possible. As a Jedi Knight of the Altisian Jedi Order, he is most proficient with a lightsaber. He can be seen practicing his lightsaber technique on his down time, as he finds the fluid movements and focus bring him a sort of meditative and relaxed state. While he was training under his Jedi Master Vir Calder he was fond of the Form VII Juyo. Since becoming a Knight however he has broadened his practices including some direct training from other Jedi Masters, and though he now could use any of the traditional forms of lightsaber combat, he still prefers Juyo.

Within the powers of the force Jakk is moderately proficient in all areas of the force, however his true talent shines in areas involving using or manipulating energy waves and forms. He as been seen on multiple occasions using the force to deflect or absorb a blaster bolt or two before drawing his lightsaber. The extent of his abilities to manipulate energy have led others to theorize that he might even be able to stop a lightsaber blade for a short time with his hands. When this theory has been brought to his attention he simply responds "Hah, well I have no intention of testing that one any time soon." or some variation of such.

Notable personnel that one might often find in Jakk's company are listed below:

  • Dannia Nabin (Corellian Female) - A friend from his home planet, Jakk employees Nabin for her excellent management skills. She is the Chief Operations Officer for Jakk's Non-Profit "StarSage Nature Preservation Society" and is in charge of running things on his publicly available Zoo station where SNP commonly will nurse wounded or endangered animals back to health. Returning them to the wild is safe, or providing them a safe home on the station if they can not be returned for one reason of another.
  • Greg Sabber (Human Male) - A friend of Jakk's, they met at the fall of the New Republic during the early skirmishes. Jakk, a freelance at the time, helped Greg to escape Republica on Day 30 when it was taken by the Galactic Empire. Greg has since helped train and lead any infantry that has worked for Jakk Emernet, now the Commanding Officer of the 531st Ranger Battalion. Greg is one of the few surviving Clones from the First generation of Clones. Emerging from his birthing pod only days before Order 66 was issued, he never saw action under the Galactic Republic and though he saw some use by the Empire before they cast off the clones he never quite appreciated their treatment of his brothers. He is now working with Ternion Corps and Jakk Emerent to bring Clones back into the universe to once again make a difference.
  • Holly Elttaes (Hapan Female) - Another childhood friend of Jakk's, Holly is one of the most common people to be seen at Jakk's side. Though Holly is slightly younger as children they would play with a group of children in the wild areas around Jakk's Patents' home. One such occasion when they were 12 years old, they were playing in a forest, near a large lake. Holly fell into the water at one point, and was attacked by a fully grown Dianoga. Jakk came to her rescue with only a small knife in hand. In the end both children survived, and though both were injured Jakk's injuries were to the point he lost his left eye, unable to be saved by local doctors. Holly's family practices religious beliefs that include the adherence to what is commonly referred to as a "Life Debt". Though Jakk refused to accept her demands to follow him while they were children, stating that the practice was not fair to a child. Once Holly became an adult she sought Jakk out, and insisted he accept her religious views. Jakk, not perfectly happy about it, accepted out of respect for her beliefs. Besides, it wouldn't hurt to have someone watching his back from time to time. Better that it was a friend.
