Just something I'd put up, as i was in the mood to explain how I/Jinn see the starwars universe,
Part of the Blood, the sweat, and the tears:
For a Mercenary most of life is lived for the next pay, the next rush of adrenaline, or the next step towards death, that is what it is like to be a mercenary for most and for most they would not argue it is only when you begin to delve deeper into the mentality of the person itself do you find out why they want that money why they seek the rush so much or why they simply want to take as many with them before they go down, and perhaps it is then that you either give them what they want or put an end to their own struggle.
Struggle a word many in this galaxy know now more than ever, perhaps with the new war tearing each system a new waste disposal unit that people are beginning to take up a rifle. Many have families they wish to protect by throwing away what they most love; some simply just were taken in by fancy words, or mind tricks.
Those in shiny armour have never known any different, and perhaps in the future, if they live that long will they begin to understand what it means to live, or will they simply follow those simple orders they were given at ‘creation’.
However for one being, one entity in this universe, one man who many call a Mercenary who does his job, not for the love of a battle, nor the greed in his heart or even for the wish of death he does it simply as he believes that is his path and when death stands before him with a bony hand outstretched and inviting him into her world will he have completed his journey. Each day does he go through not caring if the job he takes is his death, or simply something else he has helped to do whatever it is they need to do on their path.
Many call him a fool, many more insane, others simply wish to take his features and see it removed in the most painful way they can think of, however as it was previously stated, it is not until you know why one does what they do can you truly know them. This man is known as ‘Jinn’ to many and once his path lay with many others, inside a temple upon Coruscant, with many others with his own gift, however that is the beauty of life many make their own opinions and it is these opinions that truly shape how we do and see things.
Not many know why Jinn left the temple, why he didn’t trust what the Masters had decided, or why he was scorned so much when they said he wouldn’t progress to become a knight when many before him simply accepted this logic as truth and went down their path.
The teachings of the robed ones never left the youngling thought, he often kept some sense of justice and righteousness in his heart, even when he became a mercenary, he had several rules that were always made clear;
1: No children
2: No Women with young children nearby/Pregnant
3: No Force users.
These probably sum up the strange minded castaway more than anything he would tell you himself.
These three rules have always made him feel as if he was never betraying what he believed in, and as his own guidance, his own faith in the mysterious power of the force had never put him in situations he hadn’t been able to ultimately handle he never wavered in how he saw the universe, as one big conflict, many opinions siding with other similar opinions on the giant way to peace.
Funny to most how a man who takes money to, more often than not, kill people see’s it at helping along the way to ultimate peace, but many after meeting and getting to know the man find how it makes more and more sense the more you think about it. It has lead to many conflicts, many arguments and even some bloodshed between him and some of the force users he has met outside of jobs, many because of the side he was put on due to the force guiding him to that place at that time, others purely because it went against what they were taught, and believed in so feverously that they would not allow free thought in their head that defied that way of thinking.
Still some Mercenaries do it for the money……Some for the rush of adrenaline…. Some simply to because they wish to end it in a blaze of glory
Some just wish not to exist, but to live for what they believe they love, and that is how Jinn has come to be…..
