Vanguard Bril Teg Erinos

Bril Teg Erinos is a highly spiritual person with a deep reverence for the beliefs of his Iridonian and Dathomiri ancestors, as well as trust in the Force to guide him. Although he has always walked a fine line between the Light and Dark Side, he has since forsaken the latter in favor of becoming a devotee of the Light Side alone.

Moreover, Bril's heighted connection to the Living Force has instilled a deep reverence for life within him. His reliance on the Living Force both complements and confirms the holistic beliefs of his people because his Force senses have instilled him with an understanding of how all life is interconnected through the Living Force. He perceives the Force as a flame, which is often equated with life itself by his Iridonian tribesman. He also sees it as the very spark that makes life possible.

Bril Teg Erinos possesses an innate and powerful connection to the Living Force that grants him a near-constant awareness of the presence, feelings, emotions, and intentions of other beings through the Force. This heightened sensitivity to living beings makes Bril Teg Erinos a highly empathetic person with a great reverence for life. Whether it be to better understand his friends or family, to aid in his research, or to make him more sensitive in battle, Bril Teg Erinos' Force sense is his most cherished ability that is as natural to him as breathing.

However, the constant influx of sensory information can be overwhelming if Bril Teg Erinos doesn't take the time to quiet his senses until he truly needs them. Moreover, the feeling of constantly being "read" this invokes can lead to people feeling like their privacy has been invaded if they realize what Bril Teg Erinos is doing.

Bril Teg Erinos has managed to retain the sense of wonder of his youth, which he now channels into a voracious appetite for not just knowledge but understanding. He loves learning new things, especially those things that he can put into practice or apply to other aspects of his life. His intellectually rich upbringing has instilled a love for academia and scholarship within him, which he has excelled in since joining the Brotherhood. Natural ability combined with a love for learning allows Bril Teg Erinos to learn new concepts very quickly; however, his almost childlike curiosity can lead to him seeking out information that he shouldn't or that is potentially dangerous to him. This makes him more likely to get into trouble while chasing down leads for his research.

Bril Teg Erinos' determination to fight for what he believes in and those he loves is unyielding. Intense study in the Aurora Collegium, thousands of hours of combat practice, and passionate philosophical debate with his peers are all in service to what he considers a responsibility and a higher calling. In battle, Bril almost always leads the charge, fighting alongside his fellow clanmates and soldiers. He often takes on missions alone if he knows it'll spare the lives of others.

Although he doesn't want to become a martyr, his drive to constantly break past his own limits in every aspect of his life and to throw himself in the fray in the name of protecting others places a heavy burden on a man who is still so young. And if he isn't careful, he can collapse under the weight of all the obligations he places on himself.

Bril's submission to the Will of the Force has augmented the wild powers of his Dathomirian lineage. Once fueled by dark emotions and enigmatic rites, the flames he conjures in unarmed combat have transformed from their typical orange to a pure, radiant white -- a visual representation of his spiritual growth. He uses these flames in defense of everything he holds dear, as a symbol of Light and Life. In battle, he blends a mastery of unarmed combat with devastating pyrokinetic attacks; even the flames spouted from his Mandalorian Vambraces change colors when he takes control of them.

When his pyrokinesis alone isn't enough to defeat his enemies, he conjures lightning of the same color, projecting powerful blasts of electricity from his fingertips born from emotions associated with the Light Side of the Force: love, serenity, and compassion. His lightning is a manifestation of the divine spark within, not the Dark.

Bril's reverence for and desire to preserve the teachings of his ancestors has resulted in him learning the magick of his people, particularly from Dathomir. Through the study of recondite manuscripts, meditation induced Force visions, and the procurement of ancient artifacts, he has unlocked the secrets of Shadow Magick. These abilities are often used in tandem with more traditional Force powers during combat.

Several of his Force powers, such as Suppression and Precognition, originate from his use of these esoteric abilities. When using the former, passive observers can see the green ichor used by the Nightsisters, while the latter manifests itself in the myriad voices of his ancestors who warn him of impending danger.
