Legendary Jawa Character Idea: Akial, the Jawa Jedi!
The Jawa faction could really use a faction pass, but one thing that could be helpful is a powerful addition to their roster! I propose a little known character from the Star Wars Roleplaying Game named Akial, who was a Jedi Consular during the time of the Galactic Republic. Not much is known about him due to his being a one-off character in what is now Legends material, but what information we have suggests he was a Jedi Knight who specialized in studying the force, preferred analytics to direct conflict, and could speak perfect basic despite being a Jawa. With these sparse details in mind, I will attempt to craft a character that is in keeping with the Jawa faction and the source material while also filling some roles that the Jawas are missing, such as a dispeller and cleanser.

Basic
Investigative Strike: Deal physical damage to target enemy and dispel all buffs on them. Akial gains 10% turn meter for each buff dispelled and Jawa allies gain half of that amount.
Special 1
Shifting Sands: Inflict Stagger on all enemies for 1 turn. If an enemy is already debuffed, this cannot be resisted.
Special 2
Master of Negotiation: Target ally gains Taunt and Tenacity Up for 2 turns. If this Taunt is dispelled, all allies recover 10% Protection and the taunting ally gains 50% turn meter.
Leader
Coordinated Raid: Whenever a Jawa ally takes damage, they gain Stealth for 1 turn and dispel all debuffs on themselves. Whenever Stealth expires on a Jawa ally, they gain Critical Damage Up for 1 turn and apply a Detonator to a random enemy that detonates after 1 turn and cannot be resisted.
Unique
Forgotten Heritage: For each active Jawa ally, Akial gains 5% Potency and Max Health. For each active Jedi ally, Akial gains 5% Tenacity and Critical Avoidance. If all allies are Jawas or all allies are Jedi, Akial is called to assist without the secondary effects of his basic whenever an ally uses a special ability.
And that wraps it up! Feedback is greatly encouraged, let me know what you like, what seems too weak, or what seems too strong.
