Garalexion Euvos

Garalexion "Lex" Euvos is a Lasat initiate at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, having been taken in by the Order some years earlier on his homeworld of Lasan. Strong, agile, and attentive like many of his race, Lex is also prone to bouts of anger and rash decisions that have come to haunt him in many ways.

Appearance
Lex is, like most Lasat, significantly larger than his human counterparts, as well as most other species. Even at a young age, Lex is fast approaching a heigh similar to an adult human male. His stripes are very much a dull, muted colour, hard to distinguish from the rest of his purple visage.

History
On Lasan, Lex's abilities were discovered early on. Taken so young, Lex struggles to recall much of what happened in his earliest childhood, but one memory haunts him continually. The Revered Masters had argued with the Jedi who had come to his homeworld, and though he could not distinguish their words, Lex knew that neither party had wished him to be theirs. It was the intervention of an intermediary party, a combination of both worlds, that seemed to have settled the dispute. A towering Lasat in Jedi robes, purple and lined with black fur, interjected, and before long Lex was on his way to Coruscant.

At Coruscant, Lex proved to be a quick learner, and a quick grower. Now surrounded by no Lasat at all, Lex grew painfully aware of how large he truly was. He towered over the other initiates, and quickly grew into his strength and size. Climbing, jumping, crawling and all manner of acrobatic movements came naturally to him. These physical traits made Lex stand out from the others, and he came to see himself as something of a leader, though the truth of such a matter remained unknown to him.

In his years on Coruscant Lex came to rely heavily on his physical characteristics and supposed leadership qualities. He often placed himself at the forefront of situations and challenges, and shied away from almost nothing. This often proved detrimental to the young Lasat, who struggled heavily with the Jedi teachings of patience and thoughtfullness. Lex feared his own mind, the thoughts and feelings that manifested within him. Not thinking on such things was his means of avoiding the darkness within him. To act meant to not think, and to not think meant to not succumb to the anger and fear he constantly battled.

Though this made him a brave and courageous young Jedi hopeful, it made him prone to mistake and error, and served in stark contrast to much of the Jedi way. Lex's greatest battles were those of strength, for those he could easily win. His battles were with his own mind, and the conflict he felt within his own heart.
