One paragraph or less

Do you enjoy writing collaborative posts for things like conversations, combat, etc.?

Is grammar and depth of writing important to you?
Yes, it is!

Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring?

Is there anything you really dislike and want to avoid like the plague?
I don't like writing anything sexual with other people, especially if it's something terrible like rape.

I would not want my character to experience any kind of sexual violence. Maybe some harassment like catcalling would be fine, but if it went any further than that, I would feel very uncomfortable with that.

I don't know if I have any long term plans with this character in particular because this is the first time I've ever done a roleplay like this. I hope that maybe I will find something long term for this character.

Description: A young woman whose considerably short (5"0) with dark brown skin, and amber eyes. She wears heavy makeup to please herself, and has dyed her hair a bright green color with blue colored tips; her hair is tied up in intricate buns that sit on the back of head with neat bangs that lay on her forehead. Her clothes are very plain, and not at all incredibly eye catching. She wears plain civilian clothing that don't stand out very much. They're dark and beige in color, and very boring in design. She wears a standard Blaster pistol on her hip and carries two small daggers in her boots.



Skills:

Basic Training
-Blasters: Raphelia can use a blaster fairly easily.
-Daggers/Knives: Raphelia knows how to use Daggers to defend herself.

Intermediate Training
-Piloting: Raphelia is a very decent pilot who knows how to fly large cargo ships.
-Starship Repair: Raphelia is very good at repairing certain parts of ships.
-Droid Repair: Raphelia is good at repairing droids.



Employers:

-Donya Hollister: A vile human woman whose considerably wealthy, and who is known to dabble here and there in the black market. Donya was Raphelia's first employer, and the one who made her get good at pickpocketing people. Donya Hollister didn't exactly treat Raphelia like a person, more like a servant that could get her things. Donya has a particular obsession with small, exotic jewelry often found on the arms of her rich acquaintances. She had a nice racket going on with Raphelia, where she would throw lavish parties and invite her neighbors and friends, while Raphelia walked around the party goers as a servant, taking any kind of loose or lost trinkets.

-Ermine Mink: An old Duros man who, though kind towards other people, was never nice to Raphelia even once. Ermine hired her to steal cargo off of ships, and once he found out that she couldn't exactly fly anything, taught her how the ropes of flying. Ermine was very mean to her, but he still paid her the money he promised her all the same for her services. Raphelia even stole a ship by herself, and gave it to Ermine, an accomplishment she feels very proud of to this day.

Associates:

-Hellis Sols: A very kind hearted human boy who Raphelia doesn't like at all. Hellis is one of the few people who is actually nice to her,but his kindness annoys rather than pleases her. Hellis lives alone on Corellia in a tiny apartment by himself. He had parents, but has since moved out and away from them. Hellis used to be "friends" with Raphelia when they were children, and would often try and play with her, but she was always busy working for her parents. The two of them still talk, though their conversations are very one sided. Raphelia will occasionally tell him what it is that she's been up to, and Hellis will gush on about his entire life up until the last moment they saw each other. Though he knows Raphelia has a dislike towards him because of his unusual kindness, he still tries to be her friend, because he thinks she will be far too lonely without someone to talk to.

-T7-36: A very gloomy Astromech droid that Raphelia found stashed away in the holding part of the Quartermaster. T7 has an unfortunate history of being used and tossed away, and seeing as he was at the back of the starship with the rest of the empty holding crates shows that the family of merchants who used to own the ship didn't really care for him all that much. Raphelia has given T7 duties on the ship seeing as she can't find a way to get rid of him. The droid has become strangely attached to the ship that she found him in, so he has taken him in as a navigator to help her around the galaxy. T7 never leaves the ship, so Raphelia has to bring things in order to repair him to him.T7 is the only semblance of a crew that Raphelia has aboard the Quartermaster, all other duties are taken care of by other people who she trusts well enough to not turn her in for a simple bounty.

Contacts:

Marister Jayd- A very lanky, human man who owes Raphelia credits. When Raphelia first met him, she thought he was somewhat dependable, but it turns out he is nothing but a compulsive gambler and liar. Marister came to her asking for a few hundred credits, a very small sum of money, to spend on something he said was "Very important". It's been months now, and his debt has shot up to the near thousands with interest. Raphelia hates him, but she doesn't exactly want to kill him yet either. Marister has begged her to forgive his debts in some other way that doesn't involve money, so Raphelia has made him her personal errand boy.

Thalen Sage- A no nonsense human ship mechanic that Raphelia trusts with her ships maintenance, and who lives on the very busy planet of Brentaal as opposed to Corellia. Thalen spends most of his time in his small shop, hidden away in a big city, and largely unpopular in many repairmen circles. A lot of people, fellow mechanics included, don't actually like Thalen and that's fine by him. Raphelia is one of his only customers, and she pays him enough to keep a float. They have an arrangement together, she'll pay him large amounts to keep her ship up to standard, and he doesn't rat her out for a bounty.



-Raphelia owns an old Quartermaster starship that Ermine was (somehow) begrudgingly nice enough for her to have. She stole this old ship for him to use, but he found that it was far too old for his tastes. And because of its age, he decided she could keep it for herself since he had no use for it. The ship wasn't stolen from anyone remarkable or important, it used to belong to a family of merchants who was just unfortunate enough to leave their garage unlocked oe night.

Raphelia moves around a lot in this old ship of hers, and because of its age it requires some maintenance every once in a while. She often finds herself having to save money in order to pay for parts so that she can make sure it keeps working. Raphelia has only a droid and an old mechanic to help her with the ships upkeep. T7 helps her navigate to places she hasn't otherwise been to, and Thalen Sage fixes her ship up for enough money to keep him quiet and keep his shop open.

Raphelia has a bounty on her head for 1000 credits when she was seen stealing something for Ermine. By this point, however, she had long since gotten the Quartermaster unbeknownst to authorities and had escaped them, hiding from anyone who seemed to interested in the bounty on her head. The bounty, thoough quite small in comparison to other Smugglers', is still a nuisance. And so, Raphelia moves around very quickly, never stopping for more than a few weeks in one place at a time, and cleverly disguising herself on planets with loads of security. She only ever stays in one place long enough to get a job done and move on.



Raphelia is very egotistical and thinks highly of herself. She's always striving to be the best smuggler or thief around. She looks down on other people who she believes to be lower than her, and she will kiss up to anyone she thinks can get her to high places. She can be a pretty unpleasant person to be around if you don't have money to give her. She is quick to anger, and never forgives anyone. If she feels you owe her something, she will make you give it back to her in anyway she can think of, even if that includes taking your life.



Raphelia wants to be known, but no one ever has anything positive to say about her. While her work is reputable, her attitude isn't, and many of her old employers were hesitant in hiring her on at first. She is very quick to look down on people she doesn't like or believes are lower than her.



-Once stole a very expensive ship, she was pretty proud of that.

-Expertly escaping capture from Republic soldiers one time.

-Once stole a very expensive necklace from a wealthy Corellian woman, completely without her knowledge and sold it for a lot of money.

-She lost a very expensive ruby necklace, and when she tried to retrieve it from where it had been lost, she ran into a few soldiers who recognized her face. She lost both the necklace and a crate that held a prized Vase in it.

-She once crashed the Quartermaster into a cliff hastily trying to escape from a Bounty Hunter, and got lost, losing a client in the process because she was late.

-Rescued T7 from a thief after someone had broken into her ship and tried to use the poor droid as a bargaining chip for her Bounty.

Raphelia Orlan was born on Corellia to two parents who were, while very well off, didn't seem to care or even like her. Her parents treated her as a servant, and ordered her to do things for them like cleaning their house or cooking for them. She had only one person then who sort of considered a friend and that was Hellis Sols. She and Hellis played sometimes when they were children, however that stopped because Raphelia was always working for her parents. When she got older, she was finally able to escape them by running away from her home. She soon found work as a smuggler, stealing small things and gradually doing bigger jobs. As she grew however, she became a very bitter and mean person.

She went through multiple employers, though only 2 really stand out to her in her memory. Donya Hollister was the first person to ever think of paying her for her work, but this didn't mean she was a kind woman. And Ermine Mink was the first person to ever try and teach her something new and worthwhile. She has a begrudging appreciation for these two employers in particular, especially Ermine because his tough and bastardous attitude gave her pointers on how to be cruel to other people in order to get what you want.

When she left Ermine, she wanted to work for herself for the first time in her life, but she didn't want to have to be a one time employer like Donya or Ermine who only took in small street rats like herself for little pay. She wanted to become a big time employer, and so she began to hunt for people who may need a little cash fast. Raphelia would hire someone to steal something for her, and she in turn would sell it to the people she knew would want it. Working for Donya gave her insight into the desires of some of Corellia's more wealthy residents, and so it was through this that she steadily grew in the ranks.

She began to smuggle things like weapons and other paltry spare parts for people looking for blasters and missiles to use, and she soon got her hands on jewelry. Raphelia got her items from specific places, sometimes they were shops, sometimes they were people's homes. It depends on what it is that the client wanted at that time.

When she became an employer, she actually had a pretty simple system despite her circumstances with the bounty. She would first find a client somewhere who wanted something, and then find someone willing to steal this thing for her. She'd pay them money to come along with her on the Quartermaster if this thing was far away, and then when the job was finished they'd get their cut and the two of them would part ways. This has worked for her numerous times, and has made her a lot of money, as well as a bit of a reputation among new recruits looking for a job.

However, things hit a roadblock when she came across someone who was asking for money and not a job. Marister Jayd was a loan sharks worst nightmare, only because he was an incredible nuisance to Raphelia. The first time he came to her, he asked for 100 credits, pocket change to her. She gave it to him under the impression he would give it back to her, but days turned into weeks, which turned into months. Raphelia sent someone to go and track him down, and found that he had been hiding away from her in a shabby little apartment in the slums.

Marister was dragged back to her, and he was begging for her not to kill him. Raphelia was, understandably, angry with him but wanted to get her money back from him somehow. She decided he'd become her errand boy, and do various tasks for her whenever she wanted, and this was good enough for him. Since then, Raphelia has been coasting by easily with her life as an employer.
