Background/Info:Trained by Bieda Hapit (friend and protege of Qui-Gon Jinn), unbeknownst to the Jedi Council, Tenric remained hidden during the time of the Purge. Left on his homeworld at the outset of the Clone Wars Tenric spent many years perfecting what he was taught by his master. Being playful by nature Tenric has developed a penchant for using the Force in unpredictable ways. For example, he has developed some skill at auditory and visual illusion as well as the ability to cause tactile sensations in others. Mostly used to fuel his sense of fun and mischief as a younger padawan they have come to serve him well in his adulthood. Most recently Tenric has been using this talent to hide his presence/passage by replacing the signs of his being there in the awareness of onlookers. He is also working on submerging his essence into the Force to effectively become invisible to Force sensitives and mundanes alike. Meditation has long been a favored practice of Tenric's. Through it he has learned to tap into the Force to see not only what is happening elsewhere, but also what may come to pass as well as what has already transpired. This talent has led him to a habit of "Surfing the Force" as he puts it. Keeping himself attuned to the ebb and flow between the Living and Unifying Forces he usually makes his way through most situations with a seeming off-the-cuff manner that can annoy companions, but always keeps things interesting. He seldom shares his insights on a situation since keeping the upper hand has been a key to his survival. Having spent over half of his life without his master's guidance Tenric has developed a penchant for "Dancing with the Dark Side" in order to accomplish what he deems necessary.

The execution of Order 66 (in which his Master died) and the Purge taught Tenric the meaning of rage and he has worked long to both contain and harness it.Tenric's use of the Sokan style fits in with both his playful nature and attunement to the Force. Of all saber styles Sokan most closely matches his natural temperament. Trained in Shien, Soresu, and Ataru by his Master Bieda it was through his meditations that he was introduced to Sokan. Visions showed him aspects of the style and the more he concentrated on them the clearer they became. He basically learned the style while in a meditative trance moving and acting along with the visions he saw of it being instructed. He is still unaware of who this "instructor" was and finding out is on his "seeking list". Also on his list is the recovery of his master's lightsaber which was lost during the execution of Order 66…….

Tenric's lightsaber, Arbiter, is a unique blade. It contains Extra-Galactic elements (Crystals & power cell enhancements) obtained during an adventure orchestrated by an extremely powerful alien being, seemingly for its amusement (back-story on this in progress). The result is the first, and only, known Tri-Phasic Saber... {Section omitted pending full story development}...This causes the blade to shimmer in an opalescent manner and appear somewhat hazy at low (or normal) power levels. ... {Section omitted pending full story development}...but also is capable of cutting through Mandalorian Armor as well as limited thicknesses of Cortosis and other resistant materials. ... {Section omitted pending full story development}...power cell enhancements allow Arbiter to absorb ambient energy (light and heat) as well as energy generated by its movement through a gravitational field (inertial energy). This has the effect of allowing Arbiter to recharge itself while being used or just hanging from Tenric's belt awaiting use. This feature also makes the saber cooler to the touch than other sabers, even in high temperature settings.
