Jenshi Runso

Description from Book
“Mmmmm can’t exactly fall asleep like this now can we?”

Purrs Tashanira as she stares into Jenshi’s sharp grey eyes, the Huzien running his hand across her side, eliciting another purr as he reply’s with a smile,

“Is that a challenge?”

“Just thinking about you in the morning is all…”

''           Tashanira says with a laugh. She runs her fingers down the dark brown esha marks lining the side of his peach skinned face, subtly moving in and kissing him on the lips. A few more moments pass as the two begin to unravel themselves from one another, moving to the head of the bed in each other’s arms.''

Personality
You would never guess from meeting Jenshi that he is such a distinguished doctor who has seen just about everything. He carries himself with a nonchalant attitude never appearing to take anything seriously, but when things go south, his command of the medical profession and dedication to helping his patients becomes first and foremost. There is a darker side to Jenshi though that he hides well. A thorough psychoanalysis of him would show that he is a textbook psychopath who takes vengeance to extreme levels.

Biography
Jenshi was born on Thae but grew up in the outer rim systems near the Uri home world. His father Tenseq Runso was a doctor who dedicated his life to helping the less fortunate in the outer rim systems after his mother Annida Runso died from an accident when Jenshi was young. Jenshi was trained by his father and at the age of 22 he was accepted into the leading medical university on Thae. He completed the program at the age of 29 with a specialization in not only Huzien physiology but Human, Uri and a host of other species. After assisting his father in the outer rim for five years, Jenshi decided that his father’s life wasn’t the life for him. He joined one of the leading medical research facilities in Huzien space and spent 178 years of his life refining medical techniques; in addition to creating new ones.

Jenshi later received word that his father had been killed in a raid on one of the outer rim system planets where he had been helping the colonists. Jenshi sought vengeance and spent a considerable chunk of his fortune on expensive bounty hunters who hunted down and killed the pirates who ultimately killed his father. After burying his father, Jenshi left his cushy job at the medical research facility and joined the Huzien Military as a field medic to numb himself to the pain and risk his life on the front lines.

His superiors, however, quickly recognized his previous background and saw his obvious talent in the medical profession. They quickly reassigned him from being a field medic to become the Chief Medical officer for the 3rd fleet. The 3rd fleet’s medical ward quickly became known as the best run medical ward in the Huzien fleets. Those who worked under him, gave him the nickname “Unbreakable” due to Jenshi never showing any kind of stress regardless of the situation. After serving ten years as Chief Medical officer for the 3rd fleet, Lanrete began to take an interest in Jenshi’s work and offered him a position in the founder’s elite. Jenshi has been serving with Lanrete for fifty-two years.

Motivation
Jenshi wants to do everything he can to prevent the death and destruction that exists throughout Huzien space. His father's death profoundly changed him and pushed him towards the path of fighting those who would hurt the innocent. This is primarily why he joined the military, in an effort to assist those whose primary role is keeping Huzien space safe.

Goal
Jenshi's ultimate goal is to do everything in his power to ensure that innocent people aren't killed in pointless acts of violence.

Conflict
Sometimes in war innocent people die, and that is something hard for Jenshi to grasp. As a doctor who has dedicated his life to helping people "Acceptable loss of life" is a hard concept for Jenshi to accept.

Epiphany
Jenshi realizes that he can't save everyone no matter how hard he tries. Sometimes innocent people die and all he can do is adapt to the situation and do the best he possibly can to ensure that innocent loss of life is kept to a minimum.
