Large body size is very conspicuous.

Being of a rarely seen species, it is much harder for him to blend in, especially in places that do not tolerate non-humans.

Limited mobility in confined spaces.
-
Most protective attire, must be custom made to fit his massive frame, and unusual feet. This is especially a problem if he ever needs to use a space suit.
Lightsabre forms:
Rasev is well trained in Niman and Jar'Kai.
He avoids combat where ever possible, but is far from defenceless, and knows it is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a battle.

Background:
Rasev was raised and trained on Coruscant, long before the sacking of the Jedi Temple.
During the war of Naboo, and the Sith's reign of Coruscant, he was stationed on Kashyyyk, where he fought alongside Republic forces, and the Wookiees.
In an aerial battle, he was aboard a dropship that was shot down, and he fell in an uninhabited region of Kashyyyk, as the only survivor.
Alone, save for a droid he found at an abandoned outpost, he spent a number of years in the wild, until eventually found by the re-established Jedi Order of Naboo, and now resides in a hut in the forest, just outside Theed.
