Bio:
Records of his infancy begun at 7 BBY, where Kenas was in the care of a Force spirit known to him as Anima. It was projected that genetically he was a baseline human despite his increased growth rate. Under the care of this spirit, Kenas was nurtured in the ways of the Force - living in isolation with a colony of sentient beings of a wide variety and all gifted.
His mental maturity progressed nearly in sync with his physical maturity. Within this isolated homestead, Kenas' mastery of the Force steadily sharpened. This was until one day the Force spirit unexpectedly abandoned him and he was removed from the world, recalling only that it was in the Kathol Rift in the Outer Rim territories.
With his moderate Force training and nothing further to live on, Kenas worked odd jobs in order to receive funds to migrate from world to world across the Outer Rim. Eventually he joined the Rebellion as a foot soldier. Kenas was then recruited into SpecForce and operated with 14th Division's 2nd Pathfinders Regiment. He served as an enlisted soldiers until he eventually rose to the rank of Captain, due to the unit's high attrition rate. His experiences with the Rebel Alliance were bittersweet as he tried to weight the victories over the horrors and losses he suffered.
The war sent Kenas to almost every corner of the galaxy. In his travels, Kenas met other Force sensitives. They were few and none, like him, had proper Force training. Most died in their service to the Alliance. Friends were had to come by. He developed seeds of a romantic interest in Carina Niamh, a beautiful, young healer he met during the Battle of Restuss. Though he never acted upon his feelings for her, they remained close friends. Year went by and the Alliance to Restore the Republic became the New Republic. In this changing galaxy, they would find themselves at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy.
The Academy provided a wider network of allies and some true friends. The war as seen to it that Kenas held onto only a handful of friends. Now, as students of the Force, Kenas found it easier to associate and makes acquaintances in this learning environment. One particular individual was a fellow student named Jace Varitek. Though Jace was a bit of a recluse, Kenas and Jace found each other of good company and became friends.
To this point, it was primarily at the Academy Kenas cultivated his mind and expanded his knowledge of the Force. He built upon his past training and experience to propel him. His first experiences with a lightsaber were more than impressive as he handled the blade with precision and elegance. While Kenas was not one of the greatest students the academy has ever produced, he was a talented swordsman and a gifted Force user.
Kenas flourished at the Academy, taking in lessons of history, diplomacy, music and the arts, as well as philosophy. He proved himself competent to Master Skywalker and was granted the opportunity to venture out of the Academy on various assignments. Most were simple errands for Skywalker while sometimes he saw to the recruitment of potential Jedi. The twisted hands of fate, however, would bring Kenas on a disastrous course with destiny.

Kenas grew conscious of an anomaly within the Force. He investigated into its cause, discovering a murderous being with dark, incredible powers. This menacing dark Jedi was believed to be in association with Hethrir's "Empire Reborn" faction. The dark Jedi eluded him and Kenas reported to the Academy. Reinforcements were sent in the form of three Jedi Knights: Carina Niamh, Jace Varitek, and a kel dor known simply as Nemnin, their senior.
In the following weeks, the group trailed the dark Jedi, defeating his lackeys at almost every instant and bringing them closer to his downfall. During the hunt, Kenas entertained many thoughts, such as the nature of this power the dark Jedi possessed. The doctrines of the Academy reminded him that the Dark Side of the Force wasn't more powerful than Light, it was simply easier and prone to corrupt those that tapped into it. Kenas found it difficult to believe that the Force could be wicked or even dark. Two sides of the same coin, was his theory. The Force could not be corrupted it could only reflect the nature of the wielder. So, the powers that this dark Jedi had could be applied to better use. Despite this train of thought, Kenas never put it into practice.
It seemed the group would finally corner the dark Jedi, with no where left to run. The dark Jedi, however, ambushed the Jedi and engagement all four alone. His power proved to be too much for them, even for the veteran Nemnin. The dark Jedi unleashed his power against Carina, stripping her of her ability to hear tap into the Force Soundly defeated, the Jedi could do little to prevent Carina's kidnapping. Kenas gave chase immediately, leaving behind Nemnin and Varitek. He lost the dark Jedi in hyperspace and could not track Carina, despite their strong connection. He searched in vain, scouring world by world.
Then Varitek contacted him. The Jedi located the dark Jedi hideout deep in the mountains of Rhen Var. Kenas joined them and together they devised a rescue plan, under the direction of Nemnin. Nemnin was eager to arrest or destroy the dark Jedi while Kenas had entirely different priorities. The plan was meager and time was short. Despite Kenas' protests, they proceeded regardless and without support from the Order or the New Republic.
Together, the Jedi advanced clandestinedly on the dark Jedi's compound. Soon after arriving, they were again ambushed. They battled hordes of minions, from mercenaries, to assassins, and even Clone War, confederate battle droids. They fought deeper into the compound only to arrive in time to witness the murder of Carina at the hands of a ruthless Mandalorian. Though she could not feel the Force any longer, Kenas sensed her fear, pain, and life leave her in her final breath.
The dark Jedi fled. Nemnin and Varitek gave pursued him while Kenas held off the last of the dark Jedi's minions and confronted Carina's murderer. The Mandalorian was well versed in combating a Force user and proved more than a match of Kenas, despite all his training. Kenas applied unorthedox methods to defeat the warrior, all of which failed. Never in his arsenal could defeat the Mandalorian, but Kenas continued to fight - encouraging the rage within him to fuel his strength. In the conclusion of the fighting, Kenas wounded the Mandalorian, who escaped in the last instant. Jedi Knight Nemnin perished in the battle, leaving Jace Varitek to fight and slay the dark Jedi.
Kenas was pained by the death of his friend. In his time, he had never known someone so dear to his heart. Kenas held her body, though there was no life left. He blamed himself, his weakness, his fear, and his lack of power. He blamed the Jedi for not preparing them properly, for withholding powers that could have saved her life and ended this darkness before it came to this point. Yet he realized, though the Jedi's teachings were fundamentally flawed, they were still the best hope for the Galaxy now and in the times to come. Kenas knew who the blame and they were now dead. For whatever reasons there after, he did not return with Varitek to the Academy.

Since then, He roamed the galaxy, mourning Carina and searching for a small measure of peace. When his path crossed with a dangerous dark Jedi or a delusional, failed student of Skywalker, he destroyed them. Those he spared, Kenas formed relations with. He learned from many teachers during this time, including an aging student of the Force, Vorseth, and a skilled dark Jedi, Raven Wolfbane.
Eventually, Kenas returned to the Kathol Rift and sought out those that trained him in his youth. He never found them. Instead, he found others with strange powers. They embraced him and opened his mind. Kenas suddenly felt the Force like never before, listening to every distinct ripple that emnated from each life that was born, that grew, or that faded away and became one with the Force again. He had a moment of clarity which tore through everything he had learned in his young, tormented life. His epiphany frightened him as he grew to understand who and what he actually was. Having never felt so alone in the galaxy, it was then that Anima returned to him.

In my experience, there are occurrences that may be too strange to be believed. However, if the Force comes into play, nothing is too strange to have actually happen.
