Krisos

"I walk the path of a Force wielder, not the path of a Jedi, nor a Sith. Instead of choosing from two paths, i carved my own."

- Krisos, being questioned by his apprentice

Krisos was a male Jedi who became a Sith, then rejected both ways and became a Gray Jedi.

Early life
Krisos was a male Qualari Force wielder, born somewhere between 1100 and 1200 BBY, in the Outer Rim. He was one of the few that was able to walk the line between the dark side of the Force and the light side of the Force, often referred to as a Gray Jedi

During his childhood, his adoptive parents were brutally murdered by a pack of bandits, which, after killing his parents, chose to take the boy with them, with hopes of selling him to the highest bidder. The bandits took their time to Tatooine, stopping by a number of planets to refuel, drink and party and took the young boy with them everytime, to prevent him from escaping. During these few days, the bandits beat him, shot at him and treated him in the worst ways possible, only to treat him worse the next day. Arriving at Tatooine, the bandits wasted no time, and put the young boy up for sale, and the bidding started. During this, a Jedi with the name of Sanno De-lai noticed the young boy, being bid on by slavers and other creatures. A strange feeling got to her, she could feel the power of the Force, flowing out from the boy, and towards her. She had never felt this kind of power eminating from a single being, and quickly stopped in her tracks to look at the boy.She knew from that moment on that the young boy was Force-sensitive, and that he had the potential to become a great if not maybe the greatest jedi of them all. Knowing she could not let this boy disappear into slavery, she pointed her hand in the air and placed a bid nobody else would want to outbid, thus winning the boys freedom from slavery.

In the following years, Sanno De-lai took the young boy as her apprentice, and trained him in the ways of the Jedi. Astonished over how fast the boy learned, she turned to the Jedi High Council for advice on what to do next, but before the Council could truly respond, a distress call was received. The council quickly decided to send Sanno to figure out where the distress call came from, and why it was sent, but also told her to bring her apprentice with her, as he would do good with some field training. Agreeing with the Council, Sanno took Krisos with her, and traveled to the planet which the signal came from.

After a while of tracking, the two finally found the source of the distress signal, but they were both surprised when they realized that the distress signal was being sent by a group of bandits, which had stranded due to their ships engine seemingly breaking down. Sanno and her Padawan proceeded to ask the bandits if they were in need of assistance, in which they responded by pulling their weapons and firing towards the Jedi and the Padawan. It was during this that Krisos recognized one of the bandits. It was the same bandit that, for so many years ago, killed his parents and kidnapped him to sell him to slavers. A rage filled Krisos, all his horrible memories flashed before his eyes, and he felt the need for revenge. He wanted this bandit dead for what he and the others had done to him, and so he charged towards the bandit, and with a quick slice of his lightsaber, the bandits blaster was cut in half. As Sanno looked towards her apprentice, she gasped as Krisos slew the defenseless bandit, piercing his lightsaber trough his chest, again and again. As the dead body of the bandit fell to the ground, Krisos' turned to face Sanno. They both knew there was no going back from this.

Back at the Jedi temple, Sanno informed the council of everything that had happened. She told them of her Padawan's rage, and deep hatred for the bandit, and how he slew a defenseless man, only to please his own rage. The council decided that Krisos could no longer be a part of the Jedi order, and that he would stand trial for his crime. But when the time came to arrest Krisos, he was nowhere to be found. The only thing left behind by Krisos was a note to his former master, explaining that he had left to meditate and learn to control his anger and his powers. This was the last time Sanno saw Krisos, but he regularly contacted her through various methods, explaining how he was doing, and asking how she was.

Sith teachings
A few years after the incident, Krisos supposedly clashed with an old Sith, named Wookin Semrok. During the battle, Wooking used many dark-side powers which Krisos found great interest in. Noticing Krisos' interest in his powers, the Sith sheathed his lightsaber and offered to train him in the ways of the dark side. Krisos was wary as first, but he had noticed the raw power that the Sith had harnessed, and he wanted it more than anything. He took the Sith's offer, and joined his side under his newly appointed Sith name, Darth Krosis.

The training was long and harsh, and pain was a big part of it. Wookin was strict, harsh and brutal, but that was what made him a great master. Krisos only spent a few weeks with the sith, and he felt better than ever. However, all of this changed when Wookin presented him with his final test.

Wookin had somehow managed to capture Krisos' old master, Sanno De-lai, and the final test for his apprentice, was to murder his former master. As Krisos looked at the lifeless body of Sanno De-lai, Wookin explained that he had drugged her, as there was no need to fight her, only kill her. A furious Krisos turned towards Wookin, refusing to kill his former master, which had saved him from slavery, and trained him in the ways of the Jedi. Wookin then proceeded to attack Krisos, saying he would die with her, however, Wookin was shocked when Krisos, with a few swift movements, cut off both his hands and kicked him to the floor. As Wooking tried to stand up, Krisos moved over to him, and stabbed him in the heart with his lightsaber, even before Wookin had a chance to say a word.

After the fight with Wookin, Krisos set up a distress beacon, to call for help from the Jedi Order so that they could rescue Sanno De-lai. He then left without saying a word to Sanno, nor trying to wake her up.

Going into hiding
Many years had passed since Krisos slew his old sith master, rejecting the way of the sith, and carving his own path in the force. Now ignorant to both the jedi and sith way of the force, he felt the need to consult with someone, or something, beyond both paths. He needed to find what was often referred to as a Gray jedi. A Gray jedi was a being capable of wielding both the powers of the dark and light side of the force without falling to either side, but during his search for such a being, one of them found him instead. This being was however, the last creature Krisos expected, and the last creature he wanted to ever meet again. Someone he had fled from his entire life, and someone he knew would attempt to kill him, should he have the chance. This creature was a Qualari with the name of Sokris. Krisos' older brother.

It is still unclear how Krisos managed to escape the sacrificial ritual of the Qualari, but as stated by Valdo Tromaz, an old human story writer, should a female Qualari give birth to twins, the youngest child would have to be sacrificed to the wilds, in order to free his soul, allowing the older brother to absorb it and become "whole" again. Of course, since Krisos was somehow saved from the ritual, his spirit never left his body, and by the beliefs of the Qualari, his older brother never became "whole". As such, Sokris had spent most of his life trying to hunt down Krisos in order to kill him, absorb his soul, and become "whole", and he had finally found him. Sokris had few words before he attacked Krisos with all his might, only cursing him for leaving Drosmand, and denying his soul to become whole. As the two twins battled, the earth shook beneath them, and the sound of clashing lightsabers could be heard from miles away. The fight lasted for hours, with the only breaks being when Krisos managed to hide from his opponent, only to be found minutes later. In the end, even their lightsabers broke, and the two brothers were forced to attack each other with their bare hands, and their knowledge of the force, but Sokris had a dirty trick up his sleeve. As the two brother clashed together, fighting with their bare fists, Sokris pulled out a hidden blade from forearm and stabbed Krisos multiple times, before kicking him to the ground.

With Krisos defeated, Sokris prepared the ritual so that he could finally absorb his younger brothers soul, and become whole again. Krisos, still lying on the ground, felt a pain he had never felt before, he could not move, nor speak. His end was near. But as Krisos was close to fading away, Sokris moved over to him, looked him in the eyes and spoke. "You are a disgrace to your kind, and for that, i shall take your life, just like I took mothers. She was a fool to save you that night, a disgrace to all of us. Just like you." A feeling of shock, anger and grief filled Krisos, his mother had been murdered by his own brother, her own son. The woman who gave birth to him, and saved him from death, murdered by Sokris. And as Sokris stood up to finish off Krisos, and absorb his soul, Krisos, now fueled with rage from his mothers death, called upon the force and slammed Sokris into a nearby wall of spikes, mortally wounding him. With his dying breath, Sokris cursed his brother for betraying his kind, and faded away. As Krisos fell exhausted to the ground, he activated his comlink and sent word for his droid pilot to pick him up, and as the ships shadow fell over him, he shed a tear, and passed out.

After being taken to a local hospital, and being treated for his injuries, Krisos went into hiding. He knew that more Qualarian soldiers would come after him for this, and that they would not stop untill he was dead. Upon arriving at a desolate planet located far away from other colonies, he was lucky enough to find ancient ruins in which he would make his new home. Some time later, Krisos also proceeded to mark the planet as "unstable" in every archive he could access, creating the belief that the planet was one of many unstable planets which could rip itself apart at any moment. This gave Krisos the privacy he wanted, and the hideout he needed.

Later years
Many years after the fight with his brother, Krisos had finally mastered his rage, and was ready to take the next step in his journey; He would train himself in both the Jedi and Sith ways of the Force, without falling to either side, and so he did. Krisos grew to be one of the strongest Force wielders of all time, in the entire galaxy, and his powers was matched by no one. He could walk the path between Jedi and Sith, and he did it with ease. In time, it is said that his powers grew so big, he could grant himself eternal life, which in time would explain how he survived for more than a thousand years, and still looked the same as he did 980 years ago.

Somewhere between 253 and 260 BBY, a young Sith named Ankin Tamorra stumbled upon Krisos' hideout. Upon finding Krisos inside, meditating, the young sith attacked, as he looked upon Krisos as a Jedi. Before even getting close, Krisos had already disarmed the Sith, and calmly stood up, asking why he had attacked. The Sith looked strangely upon Krisos and replied that as a Sith, the Jedi was his sworn enemy. Krisos replied "I am neither Jedi nor Sith. I walk my own path". The young Sith could not believe such a thing be possible, and demanded proof, in which Krisos replied "I can not give you proof, unless you experience it yourself". The young Sith then kneeled in front of Krisos and demanded that he would take him as his apprentice, and show him everything he knew. Krisos accepted, and took the Sith as his apprentice, but it wouldn't last long.

Only a few weeks into the training, Ankin demanded that Krisos taught him how to grant eternal life to himself, something Krisos refused. Ankin got furious, and once again demanded to be taught how to grant eternal life. Krisos grew impatient, and turned away from Ankin, saying todays lessons was over, while slowly walking away. At this point, Ankin had had enough, and charged towards Krisos. Apprentice and master clashed together, Lightsaber against lightsaber, Force against Force, but Ankin could not control his rage, something Krisos took advantage of, and with a swift movement, Krisos used his Force push to slam Ankin into the walls of the nearby mountain, at a tremendous power. Ankin did not even have time to stand up properly before he felt something pierce his heart, and hear his master whisper; "You are not worthy of my teachings."

In 14 ABY, a Qualari named Kaydelin also stumbled upon Krisos' hideout, and ended up being Krisos' second apprentice. Multiple sightings of the two were made in the following years, and witnesses claims to have seen Krisos and Kaydelin show romantic signs towards each other at multiple occasions, thus making the belief that the two were romantically involved. The last sightnings of the two were in 35 ABY, on Corusant. It is unknown what the two were doing on Corusant, but many believe them to be tied with the theft of a ancient sith artifact in the local museum. What they were planning with the artifact, is also unknown.

Personality and traits
In his later years, Krisos came to dislike killing other creatures, as he viewed them all as part of the "living force", though killing those hostile towards him never seemed to bother him.

Krisos had a very cold and calm act towards those he did not know, but as explained by June, he could also be a loving man capable of great kindness.

For some reason, he was apparently extremly fond of a rare fruit called banana. June once got a hold of three bananas, and when she offered them to Krisos he smiled with great joy and accepted the bananas. "Krisos never smiles.. ever. I was shocked". June explained.

Force Powers
- Krisos developed a skill called Force grab, which allowed him to "steal" the weapons of other jedi and sith, thus making him even more powerful than other force wielders. Krisos often used this method to disarm his foes before they got too close, and often tried negotiating with his foes.

- Due to his extreme connection to the force, Krisos almost died during Order 66. As thousands of jedi perished, his powers grew fainter, and in the end, he fell into a deep coma. Luckily for him, he was accompanied by a old friend at the time, which nursed him back to health during the following year. The identity of this "old friend" is unknown.

- When Alderaan was destroyed by the Death star, Krisos once again fell into a deep coma, but this time it lasted for 12 years, and he was close to dying multiple times during this period. It is unknown if his "old friend" helped him this time aswell.

- As other Qualari, Krisos owned a blaster which he used the force to power. His blaster, however, was modified greatly, and was thus much more powerful than that of his fellow brethren.

Weapons
Krisos mainly uses a black lightsaber with a black blade, but when faced by multiple enemies, he has been seen sheathing this lightsaber and instead grabbing two identical lightsabers from the back of his belt to fight with instead. These are also black with black blades.

Should he have need to neutralize a threat from distance, he also carries a modified Qualari blaster, capable of firing both Force based shots and a type of grenades.

Other abilities
Krisos seems to have somehow figured out a way to shape Platinium-XB for his armor, and his "claws. This was proven during the Clash of Ilum, in which Krisos fought several Jedi and sith to gain ownership of a black power crystal of immense power. Krisos succeeded in retrieving the crystal, and was later seen adding the crystal to his lightsaber.

Apperance
Krisos changed apperance multiple times during his life, but his latest apparel consists of the following:

A black cloak, mostly used by Sith.

A Qualari mask

A dark armor, of unknown material, of which beneath he wields black robes.

A wrist comlink, unknown type.

Dark gloves, made of Platinium-XB, with claws on one hand made of the same material.

A utility belt with different bags with unknown content, and capsules for different uses.

Black modified combat boots.
