Biography
At a young age Magnius witnessed the death of his mother at the hands of local villagers who supersticiously feared his awakening powers. He lived in the woods of his planet, isolated and alone. He discoved a box containing a crystal and lightsaber that was left for him by his father. After 70 years on this world he stowed away on a ship and ended on an unknown world, where he was shot and killed. He was surprised to discover that he did not die, but he regenerated. His body changed, and he was physically a young man. In attempting to prevent a young woman form being sold into slavery, Magnius found himself captured and forced to fight in the gladitorial pits. Arranging an escape and over throw of the Hut, Magnius and his other gladiators escaped. Finding work on the Corsaire, he developed strong ties with the crew. At this time, using the crystal that merged into his body, the holocron became his teacher. Many years later he discoved that the holocron image of his Jedi teacher was infact his father who through the veil of the Force came to watch over him and guide him. Later in life he was unable to prevent his friends from being severely injured, some killed, at the hands of a Sith. He watched as his captain was severely wounded, and the woman he cared for deeply was nearly cut in half by the Sith's blade. This event sent Magnius to wander aimlessless in the realms Beyond the Rim. During this time Magnius offered his assistance to those in need.

Now extremely old, over 700 years have passed, and Magnius spent much of the time alone. During those years he both discovered and lost his homeworld, being responsible for ending the war between his people and an evil race which pushed him further into unknown territories. At this time he met Morgana, a Jedi who was hunting a Sith. With his true nature concealed she hired him to be his transport in the Expanse. In this time they became freinds. They found and killed the Sith, and prevented his World Devourer for destroying a planet. In this time, Magnius, suffering from severe radiation poisoning and burns, died. Morgana watched as he burst into gold energy and underwent a second regeneration.

Magnius returned to Coruscant with Morgana to report back to the Council. The Council was unsure what to do with Magnius for several reasons. Primarily was his lack of formal training, and how a ripple of darkness surrounded him. They feared his past would only make him a danger to the Order. Several Jedis vouched for him, including Morgana's Master Tan Lau. They made their decision that they would neither turn away Magnius, or accept him as a Jedi. Instead Tan Lau vouching for Magnius, agreed to take him out on assignments that the Council deemed too dangerous but vital.

In the first meeting between Magnius and Tan Lau, Lau attacked Magnius after seeing his lightsaber. Lau recognized the saber as the one used by his master. Believing that the only way someone could have the saber in their possession was through killing his master, he attacked Magnius in that belief. It was during the explanation that Tan Lau discovered Magnius' past, and a friendship was formed.

In their first mission, Morgana, Magnius and Tan Lau traveled to Endor under Council orders. There Magnius found and befriended a Force-sensitive being called Ello.

Personality and traits
Magnius is quiet and introspective. He is kind-hearted and quick to action at signs of injustice. Magnius has lost many close to him which has caused difficulties in developing deep connections to those around him due to fear of losing those close to him. He will often leave at the completion of his "mission", oblivious to the ramifications of his actions. Magnius is pushed in his own attempt to redeem himself and his failures, even if the events were beyond his ability. He attempts to make amends to his fallen friends and mother through helping those around him. He sees no problem in laying down his own life for a stranger if they are in need of help. He often reacts before making a formal plan. Often before a conflict he will give the person or the opposing group a chance to stop what they are doing. He gives only one chance before he acts.

Magnius is a Galifreyan, and has the ability to regenerate which causes a physical and mental change.

The First Magnius

- Lived in the wilds of his home world (unknown to him). He watched his mother die where the villagers of their community tried to burn her and him alive in their home, for fear of the evils that her evil demon would bring to them. He lived wild in the woods for over 70 years before returning to what was now a deserted village. He was more animalistic, and child=like in his wonder of the modern world.

The Second Magnius

He was enslaved as a gladiator on a remote planet. Watching the plight of the slaves, Magnius has an almost suicidal reaction, jumping in to protect a slave. Feelings of failure towards his mother, and the slaves around him, Magnius is highly motivated to help those that are in need.

Magnius took to wandering the universe on the Corsaire as a member of the crew. He became a rather adventurous and carefree individual. He was secretive to the crew regarding his true nature. Magnius at this time was in search of who and what he was.

After watching the vicious attack of his crew members by a Sith and the destruction of Arcadia, Magnius withdrew. He believed his friends were dead, and that he was to blame. Still driven to help people, Magnius began a pattern of helping those in need, but never staying beyond the end of the situation.

700 Years have passed. He has been traveling alone for most of the time. By this time he is world-weary, tired, and depressed. He is suffering from severe survivor's guilt. He managed to find his homeworld of Galifrey, only to discover a great war that was ripping through the time lines. He joined in the cause only to become the lone survivor of his people, being responsible for ending the war by destroying both sides.

Year later he met Morgana, a Jedi hunting for the same Sith Magnius has been hunting for years, who hired him for transportation upon his ship. He befriends the Jedi, and they become partners in their search. He managed against all his interal issues to develop feelings for Morgana. Magnius began to break his self-isolationism.

The Third Magnius

Magnius sacrificed himself to destroy the World Destroyer. After his regeneration he has become highly adventurous, and outgoing. His previous depressed and guilt-ridden personality has faded. Even though haunted by the events of his past, he is able to move beyond them. He begins looking at the world with new eyes. He is still unsure of long friendships, he is willing to offer more of himself. His relationship with Morgana strongly aided in this new attitude.
