He's approximately 5.8 centimeters in height with a slender athletic build weighing roughly ten stone.

Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Heavy tomes, endless research, and mountains of information generally drains the energy from the average sixteen year old, but to one like Braylon, his disciplined mind is that of a scholar in the making, and these are the things that fill them him with life. He may not be as well versed in lightsaber tactics or what it truly means to be a Jedi, but he does have a reverence for their old ways and respects the force. Merely picking up a rudimentary grasp of the force, he only uses it when necessary. What he ultimately excels at is learning, knowledge, and focused analysis. Though he is most certainly bookish, he's not completely helpless in a fight because he has become proficient with his blaster and sometimes his knack for research has aided him in defeat his enemies or at least eluding them. Braylon is generally friendly, open and direct after he has determined that you can be trusted, something that does not come naturally nor easy given the current state of the galaxy. His is fiercely protective of both himself and what has been entrusted to him to hold onto. He knows that it is a great responsibility that has placed an immense amount of risk upon his life. A highly intelligent and analytical person, Bray tries to keep himself several steps ahead of the Empire and other adversaries. He does have a tendency to be overwhelmingly self-absorbed and pay little attention to what's right in front of him. |

| Strengths & Weaknesses | Strengths: Languages - Through his extensive reading and time spent as a Jedi initiate, Braylon has developed a bit of a galactic tongue though he spends most of his time hurling insults at unsavory folk in Huttese. He's also somewhat proficient in the binary language spoken by most droids. Weaknesses: |
|
| Force Abilities & Sensitivity | Mind touching - With the right amount of focus on some weaker minded individuals or those inebriated or under the influence of substances, Braylon has been successful with cognitive manipulation and planting 'suggestions' in the minds of others in short, very brief durations that quickly wear off. Because he's novice at best with this he needs a lot of concentration and be in very close proximity of his target, sometimes physically touching them in order for it to work. Precognition - Some people are just in tune with the world around them and though that has been the case out of necessity for a spice runner like Braylon, he does have undisciplined precognitive abilities because of his connection with the force. At times, he gets quick flashes or glimpses in what's ahead though they are rarely clear enough to decipher. Telekinesis - At a rudimentary level, Braylon has grasped the simplicity of force telekinesis although he does not use it regularly as he once did as a youngling. |
|
| Hobbies & Interests | Sabacc - Spice running is not the only means that Braylon has racked up enough credits to keep the Grey Whisper well maintained and out of sight of the Empire's purview. He's also a bit of a shark when it comes to Sabacc. When he's in need of some credits quickly, you may find him pulling up a seat at a Sabaac table. |
| Biography | A simple down on his luck young man orphaned as a child and raised in the seedy underbelly of the galaxy, forced to do some questionable things for some very real credits. That’s how Braylon Kucera describes his ‘origin story’ to those that ask and for those that try to dig deeper, a bunch of nothing to be found except debts that he’s paid off and the occasionally scuffle or run ins at some of the slummiest establishments. He bounces place to place planet to planet working his way around the outer rim worlds in search of work. Sometimes it has weapons smuggling and sometimes spice running. Though all of this is partially true, there’s far more to Braylon Kucera than he lets others know. Born on the now imperial world of Scarif before the rise of the Empire, he had parents and the beginnings of a normal childhood. At least he did prior to discovering his connection to the force, handed over to the Jedi by his parents he was raised on Coruscant, the jewel of the core worlds at the Jedi temple. Taught by Jedi Master Yoda and others as a youngling, he was a Jedi Initiate that did not pass his Padawan trials, never selected by a master. Forced to accept a life relegated to studying Jedi text and history, learning about the force but not having a ‘strong enough’ connection to it to continue formal training, Braylon had served as part of the Jedi Service Corps. He still held onto the philosophies and principles that he had been taught as a youngling but lacked the discipline and rigorous physical training that Jedi padawans needed to become knights. He became nothing more than a forgotten face around the temple. Then came “The Order” that changed everything. He was one of the few that escaped the temple that night, one of the few ‘Jedi’ to go into seclusion and bury their past life. For him, it meant getting off Coruscant as quickly as possible and leaving the core worlds far behind and not looking back. As the Republic fell and the Empire arose to replace it, Braylon found work doing odd jobs until he made his way into doing questionable things for some very questionable people. It led him to the Pyke Syndicate, and he has been extremely careful ever since leaving Coruscant behind to never use his force abilities and cut himself off from the force. He’s numb to it, but he can still feel remnants of the connections there just beneath the surface. |
