Rellin never knew his parents; the Jedi Order took him in his infancy to train him as a Jedi. His first few years passed without incident, but around the age of seven, Rellin began to lose focus, and his mind often wandered from the task at hand. Because of his seeming lack of devotion, he was never accepted as a padawan, and at the age of thirteen, under the rules of the Old Order, he was no longer allowed to become a padawan.

Rellin was scheduled to be placed on a transport and taken to a farming world, where he would learn agriculture and work to feed the galaxy. Unwilling to accept that that was the fate that the Force had chosen for him, Rellin ran away, and spent the next five years living in the undercity of Coruscaunt, scraping out an existence that couldn't really be called a life. At the age of eighteen, Rellin felt the Force calling out to him, summoning him to leave Coruscaunt become part of the greater galaxy.

Driven from his squalor by an uncontrollable urge to do something, Rellin set out on a great adventure. He secured passage on a small transport, and set out for the stars. As the galaxy degenerated into war all around him, Rellin traveled from world to world, financed by the credits he took from his defeated enemies, guided by instinct, fighting desperately to save and protect the innocent, helpless people of the galaxy.

Over the years between the start of the Clone Wars and the present, Rellin continued to journey among the stars, at times breaking for years to learn new skills or simply read and gain knowledge. As his experience and knowledge grew, Rellin began to realize that he could control some of his Force powers by strength of will and clarity of mind.

Rellin began peering into the future, discerning more clearly where he should go and what he should do. As time progressed and he found himself in increasingly dangerous and harmful situations, Rellin began subconsciously to draw upon the Force to accelerate his body's helaing. Over time, he gained some degree of control over this instinctive power, and was able to more rapidly recover from injuries.

Rellin's Force achievements proved to be impressive, but he refused to rely on the few Force abilities he had come to understand and control. Rellin continued his training in numerous forms of combat, and continued to sharpen his mind and expand his understanding of the galaxy around him. He learned to fly starships, though he didn't have one and had no intention of getting one. He remained up-to-date on the politics of the galaxy, though he had no real interest in who did what or why: no matter who was in charge, there were always people who needed protection.

Now, after decades of living in the shadows and hiding from the galaxy at large, Rellin has decided it is time to step into the light and search out the great mystery that is the Force. Guided by Force-visions, Rellin has realized that the time has come that he become a Jedi, and do by the light what he has for so long done in darkness: strengthen the weak, protect the defenseless, give hope to those in despair, and uphold justice, no matter the cost.

I've changed my bio some, so if you wouldn't mind reading it again and telling me what you think (even if you don't like it), I'd really appreciate it.
