Biography

Born on the planet Rannon, his father, a now high-ranking officer within the RSF settled down after retiring from the Jedi Order. His mother, Cherish, a retired RSF officer who stayed home to take care of Cassius. In his young years he attended school like any regular child would. It didn’t take long for Cedro to notice that his son had a natural affinity with the force, as he himself had. Cedro, against his wifes wishes, took his son out of the school curriculum, and began to aid in his training with the force.

At around ten years of age, he was brought to the temple of Ilum where his initial training began. However there was a shared trait he gained from his father that wasn’t much liked by his peers, his xenophobia. It was something that he frequently struggled with, which eventually had him transferred back to the Praxeum of Rannon.

Cassius entered the Rannon Jedi Praxeum as an outsider, not by bloodline, but by temperament. Even as a child, he showed little interest in the vibrant camaraderie of fellow initiates and padawans. Where others sought communion in shared meditation, Cassius preferred the stillness of shadowed glades, lost in quiet reflection. His solitude was not fueled by alienation, but by discipline, an internal code shaped by ancestral whispers and the old helmet he kept close, as though it pulsed with the cautionary weight of his forebearers’ lives.

His instructors described him as precise, sharp, and withdrawn. He mastered lightsaber fundamentals quickly but viewed combat as a dialect, not a tool of righteousness. In scholarly settings, he challenged the Praxeum’s embrace of universal empathy. When asked to meditate on interspecies unity, Cassius often redirected toward questions of cultural dilution: “Are we meant to dissolve ourselves for the sake of harmony, or guard the truths passed down to us?”

Chosen by Master Yalven, Cassius flourished in personal tutelage. The master recognized the boy’s fierce intellect and instilled rigorous discipline. Under Yalven’s guidance, Cassius internalized routines with near ascetic fervor: dawn circuits through misty forest trails, nightly contemplation with no speech after twilight, and study of ancestral codes hidden in Ubese phrasing. His room remained sparse, no comforts, only texts and tools.

The Jedi council recognized his accomplishments, and dedication to the Order. One thing that continued to deter them from granting him the position of knight was his distancing, and clear xenophobic reactions to his peers. He would be given the title of adept, and transferred to the Duneeden Temple in hopes that he would reach his potential as a Jedi.
