the Mandalorian has long arms, hands and legs which are natural given his taller height. On his face is a very faint, light stubble, the same colour as his hair which is hard to see unless you are up close.

Distinguishing marks

He has a long, diagonal scar above his hip on the left side of his body located where his left kidney used to be.

He retains a burn mark over his right shoulder which has mostly faded, but still shows visible signs of scarring up close.

Lost And Found (General Aspect)

At one point in time, Appius Wight believed the Mandalorian code to be more a rough guide than a set of strict rules to follow. This is no longer the case.

Now, he follows the tenants of the Resol'nare vigilantly as he understands it as the way of life from which he came. He wears the armor, speaks the language, contributes to Taldryan's welfare, answers the call of the Manda'lor when required and swears to raise his children as Mandalorians should he ever have any.

Being a Force Using Mandalorian has brought along its fair share of prejudice in his life as some question his heritage. He's learned to tune this all out, though sometimes finds it harder working with other mercenaries because of it.

Dar'jetii Mando'ade (General Aspect)

Appius Wight is two things; a Mandalorian, and a Force user.

Many have often criticized him for this. Some claim hypocrisy, some claim simple stupidity, whilst some think he's just naive. Either way, it usually ends up resulting in others urging Appius to pick a side. Force User or Mandalorian.

Yet, he won't. Being a Mandalorian Force User is something Appius wears like a badge of honour. It's a big part of who he is, and if anyone else doesn't like it? Then to him, that's that's their problem. Not his.

Naturally, this leads to Appius being judgemental to those who criticize him for being nothing more than circumstances out of his control.

Ner Cyare (Personality Aspect)

The destruction of his aliit sent Appius into a downward spiral that resulted in his turn to the Dark Side. He abandoned his beskar'gam, and believed he was destined to be alone in a galaxy that conspired against him.

That all changed when he met Ankira Irr. She became the first ray of light he had experienced in a long time. He became inspired by her kindness and her tenacity, she helped him rediscover who he was and he came to admire and love her, calling her ner cyare.

Shades of the old Appius come to the surface when he's around her. The same kind, gentle being he was before the destruction of his aliit. Though the Dark Sides influence can play with his mind, and after long periods of time apart he retreats back into his shell, aware of it or not...

Hello There (Personality Aspect)

Appius "Zappius" Wight goes by his day to day life based on what his heart tells him to do, wearing it on his sleeves and never hiding his emotions. He rarely ever plans ahead, and often says the first thing that comes to his mind. Sometimes he can be calm, at other times angry. Though he's often caught with a smile on his face, a joke, and a handful of wit in his words for those with an ear to listen.

However, at the same time Appius is a reserved and introverted individual. Tragedy has struck this Mandalorian on more than one occasion. The loss of his family and the sting of betrayal are wounds that are hard to heal. As a result, he has a hard time trusting those he meets until he gets to know them better.

The Trickster's Form (Combat Aspect)

Niman is not an art practiced by many in the Brotherhood. Many see it as a lesser form used by diplomats and Consulars that seldom ever saw combat. Appius takes a great deal of pleasure in proving them wrong and showing exactly what Form VI can do.

He has taken the idea of moderation and thrown it out the window, all in a bid to make himself as sketchy and unpredictable as possible through his use of the Saberstaff and Force Powers such as Telekenesis, Force Lightning, Slow and Amplification.

Through Dun Moch Appius picks apart his opponents fighting style, belittling them to exploit their weaknesses using his varied training and knowledge of lightsaber forms to do so. However, Niman is still Niman, and against opponent's who can survive his unorthodox tactics he can find himself way over his head, especially against opponents better with the blade than he is.

Unlimited Power! (Combat Aspect)

Appius Wight is no stranger to using the Force to defend himself. Years of being hunted just for his sensitivity to that mystical power has taught him that the Force is his ally, and a powerful ally it is.

As such, he has learnt to rely on it, becoming his first choice for dealing with enemies, even before drawing his lightsabers. Whether it be Telekenesis to shift an opponent and throw objects, Slow to keep them in place, or even Force Lightning to destroy them.

Despite how devastating and horrifying this can be for his opponents, Appius can quickly find himself struggling as overuse of Force Powers can leave him extremely fatigued. This leaves him extremely vulnerable to the Suppression Force Power.
