Bio:
Jace doesn't remember much about his life before the Temple, as he'd been brought to Coruscant by the Jedi at an early age, just as most of the others had done. But, during his time at the Temple, he'd been considered one of the most promising Younglings in a while, and had picked up many of the lessons faster than his classmates. He also connected with his classmates well, and carries many friendships with him as he continues on to the rank of Padawan. Thus far, he hasn't had any experience outside the Temple, except for the exercises he'd done as a Youngling, but he is very anxious to get out into the galaxy and make a difference.
If there's any more you'd like, I do plan on posting a short background story in the Fanfiction board soon about how he'd been brought to the Temple (I know it's been done before but it just seems so much fun lol)

Very good. And I'll be sure to read your more in depth one when you get it out.
Now, I would like you to give me a short summary on your favorite character and tell me why you like him/her. Also to give it a bit of a twist, tell me why people not like (If they did) this character. At lest one reason for that.

My favorite character is definitely Qui-Gon Jinn, student of the Living Force, former Apprentice of Dooku, and Master to the fallen Jedi Xanatos, and then to Obi-Wan Kenobi. He was also the one to "discover" Anakin Skywalker and bring him to the attention of the Jedi Council. After the Council had basically rejected Anakin, and deemed him "dangerously full of fear and anger", and, "too old to begin the training," Qui-Gon had decided to take Anakin under his wing and teach him of the Force, despite the Council's thoughts.
Later on, he died in a battle with the Sith Apprentice Darth Maul, and as his dying wish, he asked his then-Apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi to train young Anakin in the ways of the Force.
Many years later, Obi-Wan discovered through Yoda that Qui-Gon had trained with the Whills, enabling him to stay "conscious while dead", and was able to speak to him through the Force. And by use of that technique, he continued to serve as a mentor for Obi-Wan, even after his death.
I like Qui-Gon because he makes decisions quickly and sticks with them, and that he lived for the moment ("Feel, don't think -- use your instincts"). I also liked that he had his own views on the Force, some matching the rest of the Jedi, others, going against the teachings.
Some people may not like him because he didn't agree with the teachings, and was stubborn, defying the Jedi Council on multiple occaisons.
There...I think that about does it

That was wonderful. I really like the way you do things in your assingments so far.
Next I want you to make up your own saber form. Tell me What lightsaber are best used for it and the ups and down about it. Also include stance and abilities.

Alright, here goes:
Miir-Cen Form:
Basics -- Miir-Cen is a precision based form like Form II (Makashi), but is used defensively like Form III (Soresu). Miir-Cen forces someone using a more aggressive form to attack wider and with more strength, often exposing body zones. Precise blade angles, (better aquired by use of a single-bladed lightsaber) are required when blocking lightsaber blows, and once mastered, if the blade angles are near-perfect, the Miir-Cen form can also help with absorbing some of the more powerful blows from forms like Ataru and Vaapad. Miir-Cen is used primarily as a defense system, and then capitalizing on the mistakes made by those using more powerful forms. Luckily, what with the precise blocking angles, mistakes are made more often by those using more aggressive forms, giving more opportunity to strike.
Stance -- Very similar to that of Form III as it is primarily a defensive tactic, but it is more upright, so that capitalization and quick movement on the mistakes of opponents can be made quicker and more precisely.
Advantages of Using This Form --
+Defensive and precise, forcing more errors from aggressive attackers, allowing more room to attack yourself.
+Allows quick counter-attacks.
+Precise blade angles can absorb some of the more powerful attacks, allowing a balanced defense, as well as attack.
+Allows fast transition to Forms II and III, so that a more specialized offensive or defensive strategy can be employed.
Disadvantages of Using This Form --
- Easily matched by precise blade attacks and movements of Makashi (Form II)
-Movements and blade angles require much precision, making it harder to block faster attacks and movements like those from Ataru (Form IV)
-Although blade positioning absorbs some blows, exceptionally strong Form VII users can easily disrupt the balance of a Miir-Cen user because such strength is overwhelming even for spectacular blade placement and angles.
So, How Does it Stack-Up Against Other Forms? --
vs. Form I - gives Miir-Cen users and advantage.
vs. Form II - puts Miir-Cen users more or less on a neutral ground.
vs. Form III - gives Miir-Cen users a bit of an advantage.
vs. Form IV - puts Miir-Cen users at a slight disadvantage.
vs. Form V - puts Miir-Cen users more or less on a neutral ground.
vs. Form VI - puts Miir-Cen users at an advantage.
vs. Form VII - puts Miir-Cen users on a more or less neutral ground (unless user of Form VII has mastered it, thus putting Miir-Cen user at a slight disadvantage)
Is that what you were looking for?

Ok that was a great pratice duel! Nice job.
Now I want you to find three distinct and foolproof reasons that the Jedi are "better" than the Sith.
