@VitaVitaAR I edited her age and when she was found to 18. She found the scrolls at age 20 AND became a Dark Jedi in the years after killing her master.
Would that be okay or do I give her more time to train?
I whipped up a sheet. Let me know if you've got any issues, I'll be happy to change it!
Name: Sulik
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Race: Trandoshan
Personality: Sulik is, as any good follower of the Scorekeeper is, obsessed with showing off proof of his conquests and successes. He is ruthless, smug, and loathes to give up on anything once he sets his mind to it.
Profession: Circumstances have forced him to take on jobs as a solo mercenary. Before, Sulik was a member of one of Trandosha's most prestigious clans.
Skills: Sulik was trained by the best his clan could afford, and is a masterful murderer. Blasters, vibroblades, and traps and grenades of all kinds are all wielded by him with skill and finesse. Sulik has also been given lessons in ship piloting, basic first aid, economics, sewing, and taxidermy.
Abilities: As a Trandoshan, Sulik can speak both Dosh and Galactic Basic, and can slowly regenerate lost limbs. Sulik has contacts throughout the underworld, thanks to his extensive networking prior to his clan's destruction.
Equipment: Sulik's most prized possession is a full suit of Mandalorian armor the clan had looted when Sulik was a hatchling. Carried alongside the suit is a pair of crushgaunts, modified to allow for Trandoshan anatomy. This suit of armor is decorated with a massive number of trinkets and body parts taken as war trophies.
In combat, Sulik wields a DP-23 Rifle for long-range engagements. If forced into single combat, he wields a 5'' durasteel vibroknife with accompanying buckler. If Sulik knows he needs to subdue his enemies with less-than-lethal force, he prefers to use his personal Trandoshan suppressor pistol, given to him when he came of age.
Sulik flies a XS-800 light freighter, the Elaborate Gesture. The Elaborate Gesture is staffed by his clan's five remaining members, and is the sole remaining sign of the Twin Suns' former glory.
The Twin Suns were a notorious mercenary clan working around the Outer Rim. Staffed almost entirely by Trandoshans and bound by blood, the Twin Suns were almost more of an extended family than a militant group. The Twin Suns took any jobs they could get, and did them with brutal efficiency.
During the Clone Wars, the Twin Suns were used as both elite commandos and shock troops. Perhaps their greatest success was their nearly-successful capture of the Acclamator class assault ship Prosecutor. Unfortunately, in doing so, they came to blows with Delta Squad, one of the Republic's finest and deadliest squads of clone commandos. The Twin Suns were soundly routed and crippled for years, and forced to take on mediocre security jobs and petty wetwork.
Fortune favored the Twin Suns again as they were hired by the newly-formed Empire to maintain a security detail in a system frequently harangued by rogue Mandalorian warriors. Though the job was mind-numbingly boring at times and extraordinarily dangerous otherwise, it paid handsomely and gave the Twin Suns a number of worthwhile trophies.
Tragedy struck when a rival Trandoshan clan was hired to help the Mandalorian warriors in their banditry. The two clans fought bitterly, and both found themselves evenly matched. Just as both clans had found themselves in a stalemate, their employers struck. Both the Mandalorians and the Empire had betrayed the mercenaries under their employ, and both clans suffered horrendous losses. The only reason the Twin Suns survive to this day is because Sulik and his crew had split off several months earlier to hunt down a valuable bounty.
Sulik quickly and violently assuaged his crew's worries, and set off into the wild black yonder in search of a way to either revive his clan or die gloriously. Sulik now wanders aimlessly, taking any jobs he can get and spreading his legacy.
The only thing I'm a little confused about is the time frame. Since he's 25, I'd assume that the crippling of the Twin Suns happened with the Remnant rather then the full-blown Empire? Then again, I don't know how Trandoshan age rates work. ^^;
I'd probably be starting a whole debate here but does age even matter in Star Wars considering the fact that anyone who has engaged in interstellar travel will never physically be the age they say they are? :P Plus time can also be affected by the gravity of a certain body which could produce scenes like that from Interstellar where he goes down to the planet and comes back up to discover his children had grown up.
@GrafRoy Zeppeli: Probably a bit more time to train. Also, I would honestly say she should probably have a bit of a more clear reason for going with the Children of the Emperor.

There is a standardized unit of time in Star Wars. Presumably, there are Galactic Standard Months, Weeks, Days, Hours, and so on as well. Oddly enough, the Galactic Standard Year is 368 days. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Standard_year/Legends
But yeah, I didn't make it clear, but the Imperial Remnant betrayed the Twin Suns as their contract was technically applied to a now-dead organization. That would mean that the Twin Suns were an unauthorized military force in Remnant territory and, thus, a threat to the system to be eliminated. Hooray for bureaucracy!
@VitaVitaAR All right! Will edit accordingly. But in a bit. Writing a post for another RP and I also need to go get some groceries for today's lunch, so yeah, it's gonna take a while.
Can't wait to get started. ^.^ Been reading "The Hand of Thrawn" recently, which starts at 19 ABY as well :P
Also... I felt the need to include that my character, despite being off-world for most of her life is still able to speak her native language. I don't know when this will come in handy, but we'll see. Mostly because I want her to have an accent, too xD
@GrafRoy Zeppeli: Okay, I'm sorry this is taking so long, but I also want to point out that any Jedi at this point would be part of Luke's order. Basically, this means that someone else probably had some idea about her and it might be a good idea to mention that.
@PyroDash888: I haven't read any Star Wars books for a looooong time, but I remember The Hand of Thrawn being really good. Even though this was accidental, having the RP set in 19 ABY makes a lot of sense. Most of the Imperial Remnant is tired and not really up for continued conflict, and view the Children of the Empire as radical extremists.
Also, I've picked out the ship we'll be using for the RP.

Yeah, even though it is mostly a political incident, this Caamas Document Crisis, it is extremely engaging to read. Typical Timothy Zahn. And yeah, the Empire is ready for peace at that point, although the moffs are still mostly against peace at that time.
@VitaVitaAR 'Tis not a problem. To be honest, I expected some of this because of how little knowledge I've got on the series. I'm surprised Alastro got the okay with just a 'he's weird'!
@PyroDash888: It's a modified Corellian Corvette with a hanger bay for the fighters. ^^;
@GrafRoy Zeppeli: I thought you had a specific idea for the character you wanted to go with. ^^; If it's just you don't know as much... well, another thing is it's likely she basically disappeared for a while, since Luke and the other Jedi would probably be quick to try and stop her and talk to her after she killed her instructor. Well, and defeat her most likely after that. In addition, well... She can be sympathetic, but being a Dark Jedi really means giving over to the Dark Side. She seems more like the deeply misguided type from what you seem to be trying to go for but that would still be there.
