Jerik Blackthorne

Jerik is one of two sons to Cadden Blackthorne. He and Guan were birthed from cloning cylinders, but they themselves are not clones of either Cadden or their mother, Renalla. Rather, like Cadden prior to the Clone Wars, they were test-tube birthed. Their aging was, as a result of Cadden's genes, accelerated until puberty, in which case the process stabilized to normal levels. The reasons for this are, to date, unknown.

Jerik is the more powerful of the two Blackthornes. Though not as clear-minded as his brother, Guan, he is still concise and adept at making tactical decisions that often lead to victory. He inherited his father's genes as a warrior, and only speaks when spoken to, or if he has something important to say.

Having claimed their mother's lightsaber, Jerik uses it more as a tool to enhance his combat powress than as a weapon to rely on. Jerik has practiced relentlessly in melee combat, focusing on his lightsaber, and holds a high chance of besting others of his class in a duel. Likewise, he also employs the Force as an enhancement to his other physical abilities, and seldom uses it as his weapon, or as a tool for means of getting things done. This makes Jerik a deadly lightsaber duelist, and a good ally to have on one's side.



During the events that surrounded the second reincarnation of Blackthorne Enterprises, in the Udine System, Jerik discovered a set of Mandalorian battle armor deep within the asteroid field, in a small abandoned asteroid outpost, once belonging to one Trak Blackthorne. Since then, he has claimed the armor as his own, despite Cadden's wishes that he does not follow his path.

Jerik is currently with Cadden in the effort to restore Mandalorian power to the galaxy. However, he does not believe that the tactics Cadden uses are proper in the approach he is taking, but nevertheless follows his father's footsteps and aids in the effort whenever he can.
