A dark robed figure steps into the chamber. He walks with an air of mystery about him, his feet hidden by the black with gold trim robes such that he appears to be hovering. He seems to be a harmless, robed vagrant at first, but a glint of light on the two sabers at his side prove otherwise. He also carries, beneath his robes on a frogged bandolier, a long wooden sheath containing an ancient by nicely kept katana. The man throws back his hood, revealing a young but pained face. He appears to be no more than 30, with short, dark-brown hair and brown eyes. The man takes a seat on the concrete floor, and raises his head, preparing to speak:
"I come to request the honor of joining this caste. I am Jodah, of the Keep at Giva. Such as mine's appearance may not be of the most apt, and for this I apologize. I come from far away. My preferred speech would be with the Darth Snack, but another is acceptable. My studies of this area simply revealed him to be most appropriate to my style." The man then lowers his head. From a small pouch on the sash of his robe he pulls a wooden cylinder and a steel stiletto with a cache-blade. After releasing the catch on the knife he begins to turn the cylinder in his hand, running the blade around it in a primitive attempt at lathework.
