Weapon
West's weapon of choice is a big two-handed metal axe. It is a very heavy weapon, hard to balance and slower than traditional lightsabers, and also forces the use of both hands and greatly decreases mobility. It is able to get a lot of momentum and cause especially destructive - and distracting - blows, and Charlie mastered the use of its weight and reach. It is not very effective against lightsabers and ranged weapons, but it is good against bigger targets and in battles that don't require precision.
Charlie actively uses the Force to maintain control of the weapon, which allows him to perform impressive combat feats with it - like spinning it around himself, using the weight of his body as a counterweight, becoming a hurricane of destruction, not to be approached. His way of fighting, however, leaves Charlie vulnerable when alone, and it isn't quite suitable for duels.
Charlie also has two small throwing axes, usually tucked somewhere on his belt and equipped with EMP tech reacting to an impact. They aren't powerful enough to take out big robotic opponents, but they can hinder the smaller ones or disrupt a terminal or a droid. He isn't amazing at throwing them, however, and mostly carries them as a backup weapon and something to break electronic locks with.
Appearance
Charlie is a relatively tall human with unruly black hair and a beard. He has a strong build, and he is visibly muscular, but not overly so. There is a number of scars on his body, but the one usually visible is a small scar on the left side of his jaw, going up from his beard to the middle of his cheek and looking like it was made by something cutting. Charlie's eyes are dark brown, but they have a greenish hue to them, visible in brighter light. He often smiles, and tends to scratch his beard absent-mindedly when in deep thought.
Charlie usually wears traditional Jedi robes over an armored black jacket, paired with black boots and a leather strip going over his shoulder to hold the axe on his back. Said weapon is uncovered more often than not, its menacing edge glinting in the sun. Sometimes Charlie adds various acccessories to his attire - he favors scarves and gloves especially.
Personality
Charie is a friendly, cheerful individual with a fierce spirit. He is brave and loves action a bit too much, values friendship and honor and wishes to live his life the way he can proud himself on. He can't be called peaceful, but he usually doesn't wish harm upon anyone and doesn't pick fights when it's uncalled for. Although he is eager to come to others' defence - overeager, some will say, as Charlie enjoys adrenaline rush and dislikes not having anything to do, getting snappish and irritable when forced to stay actionless for too long.
Standing with the Order:
Charlie grew calmer over the years, but the rebellious spirit he was always known for is still present, and he often acts as an opposition to other Masters, pushing the High Council to act when he thinks they are stalling. It earned him a reputation of one of the most hot-headed Masters, even though West himself disagrees with this assertion. He is often regarded as an extravagant Jedi, even among other Weapon Masters, for his weapon of choice and fighting style - but at the same time, he is respected for the skill.
West doesn't mind interacting on personal level with other Jedi, but he mostly keeps to himself outside of the Council issues. Whenever not on a mission or doing anything otherwise related to the Jedi Order, he either practices with his axe, wanders around the closest settlement or cooks.
General info:
Charlie "Shark" West is a Jedi Weapon Master who primarily earned his rank through legendary feats of combat performed with his trusty axe. It is a bit questionable that he became a Master, since many would argue that understanding of the balance is not one of his virtues, and he would probably be happier being a Knight instead, as he always doubted that he actually deserved his rank - but he is a Master, and that is how it is right now. Charlie is a strongly built individual, a tall and muscular 34 year old human, brave and experienced in combat and physical powers of Force, good at tactics and a great commander. He used to be a rebellious spirit in his younger days, and he is still sometimes willing to go against rules if he deems the reason to do it worthy, but he is calmer these days than he ever used to be. He also doubts that he is a good teacher, but vows to himself to do his best to not be a bad influence and do his best to pass the knowledge to his protege.
