Zeltar Farr - Mandalorian Warrior

Name: Zeltar Farr
Age: 46
Race: Human Cyborg

Zeltar was born to the Farr family back on Mandalore, and hand chosen by Cassus very early on to become one of his Lieutenants. At first believing this to be an honor to be chosen, he accepted the position and left Mandalore and young Mart behind. Though life under Cassus was anything by honorable or glorious. He soon found himself questioning the decisions of his commanding officer and rejecting some of the orders.

The last stand came when Cassus ordered him and his squad, a group of eight including him to enter a camp of Republican Children and execute the lot of them. He refused and expected his other soldiers too as well, but when they opened fire, he could not accept it any longer and killed his entire team. He was taken down by another Lieutenant and dragged before Cassus.

Cassus ordered him to swear his fealty to him, to prove his loyalty by dragging another child in front of him, if he killed the child, he would be forgiven for his err in judgement, if not, he would die. Zeltar refused again expecting to die and was dragged off to a cell where for three days he would be dragged out in front of other Lieutenants and officers and visibly tortured and beaten, declared a traitor and dishonored in front of his people though more in lies that he had betrayed and murdered his own crew in service to the Republic.

At the end of the third day, unable to rise or move, he was lit ablaze as Cassus stood by watching him burn till he blacked out, assuming he was dead, Cassus and his officers left him as such. He should have died, would have had he not been found by an old woman, stabilized through the force and dragged to a medical clinic and slowly pieced back together, though the damage to his body was extremely extensive, simply putting him back together was not an option, though there was an option left. It was experimental but it could work.

Slowly they worked, hour after grueling hour they had their engineers create a living support suit, one he could never take off but would sustain his life for him. His experiences would be lessened for it, but he would live. What more could he possibly ask for. He spent the next two years in the hospital, configuring the suit to work with him and the Beskar metals was a lengthily task. Teaching him how to survive with it was even worse. He had lost all his strength and ability, he would have to start over from the ground up.

Eventually being discharged he wandered a few planets, never settling fearing that Cassus would find him and finish the job. Now he has landed on Viscara, only recently learning that Cassus was dead, but could he let his guard down now? Or were there still Lieutenants and other Mandalorians that would believe Cassus over him? Only time would tell. For now he needed to get his strength back up.

Another long hospital trip, yet it always seems like they cannot do anything more then is already done. I will need to find some beskar to strengthen this. In the meantime, I have a different ditch to dig. It seems the Jedi have problems with showing any appreciation to Mart, and favor knocking him down when he does something they don’t like rather then getting his side, why he believed he needed to make that decision and offer insight and advice. No, they favor being judge, jury and executioner, even when they were not on the mission.

Me and Althea had it out last night. Trying to tell me she scolded him when wrong and congratulated him when he did good, so I called her out then and there, when was the last time she thanked him, or even congratulated him for anything he did for “them”. She told me she gave words of “encouragement” and I told her to cut the shit right then. Encouragement is not appreciation, its not showing you give a shit if someone lives or dies. Its literally taking advantage of Marts good nature to help others and I will not permit it. I don’t give a shit if she’s not a hugger, I don’t give a shit if she writes him a letter to tell him she truly appreciates all he has done for them. Do something other then “encourage”, since encouragement like that should be saved for mistakes, and rather then knock him down every time he makes a mistake, try and learn why and how and help him understand what you prefer. Contrary to popular belief, even among Jedi it seems, there IS a right and wrong way to correct someone.

I am not Mart, I do not back down to pressure and I am not afraid to burn bridges and everyone connected to them…but Mart is. I know things about him that clearly his so called friends other then Sandra perhaps has not been allowed to see, the fear that still eats at him. Ashi doesn’t understand either, but she refused to even hear me. I don’t know what to say on her.
