I liked the idea of Sage Dharma's portrayal suggested by Sabhayata. Brishti please check it, I think it will look good. Also we need to rethink about the yaksha. If we want to show that yaksha himself was Sage Dharma then we cannot make his a madman like we planned before.

but why does Yaksha-Dharma have to be same?

I think Yudi's father should be some one who is synonymous with justice or a metaphor for justice

I think he can be a sage but a sage who has excelled in the field of laws that govern their yug, whom various kings etc come to when they need to know which is the right path of justice.

Since Pandu first wants a son who is virtuous and has good moral values he can take Kunti to this sage .Also since this sage himself is very knowledgeable he will be able to take Yudi's pariksha both the times at end of Vana parva and the epic.

Also since this sage has good connections with various kings he can ensure that non one finds out about pandvas during agyaatvaas.This will explain the boon Yudi's father gives him at end of the Yaksha pariksha

Are we making Arjuna's father some sage?

I think he should be some king of some place which is kind of a scientific hub for weapons and chemicals

or else how will we write Indralokagaman parva later

Dharma-Yaksha, Indralok-Sage Indra do not have to be related or same.

RigVeda has all the gothras. We should check that before we make Yudhi's papa a random sage.

For ex, there was actually an Indra Gothra who considered themelselves pure blood Aryans living in the Himalayan ranges. Nagas WERE allies as their original kingdom was next door to Indras'. Am sure we can find some for Vayu, Aswins and Dharma too
