Now one that was a long time coming. I sketched up the pic of Yan here a lil while back and have just taken forever to get to it. Have a few pics like that. Anyway though thought it'd be a good idea to revamp this character who I originally did years ago. Now connecting him with Tonlin, my human Force User. Oh and big shout out to chinookorca chinookorca for the coming up with the setting. Seriously I love your Last Bastion stuff Chinook. ^^

Yan stood in what had become one of the training rooms in the Last Bastion headquarters. Since arriving on this strange mobile planetoid he'd felt at home somehow. He had Tonlin had been greeted by the Director himself who quite frankly Yan liked. It seemed the Reshi was a bottomless well of knowledge which fascinated him to no end. Though perhaps in part because part of him hoped that knowledge would help him figure out more about himself. Yan knew nothing of his past. He had been found several years ago by Tonlin. He was at death's door step and the former Emperor's hand saw him and took him in and became the family he needed. As far as Tonlin was concerned Yan was his son. That they were different species didn't matter at all to him. Coming from a Mandalorian upbringing Tonlin brought some of the values with him. Family was less about blood than the bonds you make and even being Mandalorian was not about being born as one. It wasn't the color of your blood but the contents of one's soul. But still Yan couldn't help wanting to know where he came from or exactly what he was. Knowledge on that was sparse. All he knew was that the species he hailed from was only known to the galaxy thanks to several Jedi who had come from it's ranks. Most recently and famously being Yoda.

While Yan did well in his combat practice with his peers and with his father his passion was the force itself and all the ways one could apply it. Tonlin had noted once that he knew it wouldn't be long before Yan's skills in many areas of the Force would Exceed his own. Tonlin was no intellectual pushover, but he was still at the end of the day a Warrior even if a covert one. Yan was the one with the potential to do so much more with the Force. Today saw the young alien training with an old Battle Droid. It's blaster set to stun so that it would not actually harm Yan if he missed and would not harm itself should Yan deflect a shot back at it which Yan had become more and more proficient. Each time the droid was hit with a shot it would react by slumping over and crumpling to the floor. Yan would use the force to flick a switch to restart it and continue. Though after an hour he began fiddling with the droid at a distance. Now using the Force to dismantle it. He wa quite placed as the head and neck floated over his hand. The droid going on about how strange that felt to it. Yan laughed and acknowledged that before placing the droid's head and neck back upon it's shoulders. Tonlin stood in the door way watching. One day Yan would be one of the higher ups of the Last Bastion he had no doubts there. As Yoda himself had once said. Size Matters Not. And so it wouldn't matter here. Greatness knew no size.

Well Hope you guys liked the pic and the lil story. ^^
