Irhan Lo'Vex grew up never knowing his family. He was sold into slavery very young, and was put to work almost immediately. However, due to his age, Irhan Lo'Vex bounced from owner to owner until he became a teenager. Having to endure horrible treatment during this time in his life, Irhan Lo'Vex has lingering trust issues while carrying an absolute hatred toward slavers. If confronted with acts of slavery, he will most likely lash out in some way, regardless of it compromises his objective.

Born a slave on a primitive world, Irhan used his wits and nascent Force powers to escape captivity. The later discovery of a Jedi Holocron introduced Irhan to the Force and stoked his curiosity and restlessness into a burning hungry for knowledge and an insistent wanderlust. Irhan has traveled through countless lands, nations, tribes, villages, and secret cannibal cult enclaves and been a stranger in every one. Wandering as he does has become second nature, and he lives for the next horizon, the next mystery, the next adventure. At the same time, however, he often catches himself wishing he had the opportunity to form lasting bonds and relationships with the people he meets in his travels, that he could somehow find a balance between his desire for friendship and his need for constant exploration.

Irhan Lo'Vex is a lateral thinker, and when he encounters problems or dilemmas, he is very good at improvising and coming up with alternative solutions. This allows Irhan Lo'Vex to find ways out of situations others might give up on. While these solutions are often not so obvious to others, Irhan Lo'Vex can typically explain and lead others through his plan...as long as they are patient and willing enough to trust him outside thinking.

The Universe is beautiful, vast beyond Irhan's ability to comprehend, and he knows it. He is in perpetual awe of the world around him, from the smallest flower to the tallest mountain, because he knows that everything he sees is a work of art, a mystery just waiting to be unraveled. To his thinking, there is nothing better to do when one encounters something strange and wonderous than try to learn all that can be learned about that thing. His boundless enthusiasm and occasionally obsessive curiosity are endearing to some and deeply irritating or confusing to others. Irhan is the very antithesis of a detached observer. A compassionate man with a deeply rooted hatred of injustice, restraining himself when he feels certain he can do meaningful good is not in his nature. He tends to ere on the side of meddling, for better or for worse.

To an open-minded individual sufficiently provoked, a brass telescope can serve as a club in a pinch. As far as Irhan is concerned, everything in his vicinity is as likely to end up used to further his chances of victory as the blade in his hand. Whether its dust, kitchen, utensils, rocks, Force powers or furniture, he is always ready to bring unexpected elements into the fray to catch his opponents off guard. His has grown quite capable of using his environment as just another weapon in his arsenal. As a consequence of this tendency, however, in a straight fight in an empty room, he is operating at a disadvantage.

Irhan Lo'Vex will never go into any situation head-on. Whether it be combat or just strolling down the street, he will stick to the shadows or cloak themselves in the Force. The less they are seen the better. If they cannot sneak up on someone, then Irhan Lo'Vex will not bother confronting them.
