| {Personality} |
If Skylar were to be described in one word, that word would most likely be curious. The young woman is eager to learn about anything that piques her interest, so much so that sometimes it may lead to mischief such as breaking and entering and theft. Despite her actions and her various occupations however, Skylar is actually a rather kind person, after deeming a person to be trustworthy anyway, although she can also tend to act a bit arrogant and cocky at times. She was raised with manners being a member of an Imperial household after all, and old habits tend to die hard.
| {Place of Origin} |
Skylar was born on Kuat as the daughter and sole child of a couple who worked as engineers for the Kuat Drive Yards. Compared to most in the galaxy, Skylar was given a fairly wealthy, but modest upbringing and was raised in comfort, but not luxury, during her time with her parents. After life with her parents however, she was met with the grittier side of the galaxy, leading her to mature quickly in order to adapt with her rapidly changing surroundings.
| {Background} |
Skylar was born on Kuat at 29 BBY. She was the daughter of Oscar and Laura Fosslan who worked as senior members of staff at the Kuat Drive Yards, her mother being a technician while her father was a mechanic and on the design team. During her early life, she was given a comfortable life and education due to the relatively safe environment she was in. It wasn't long however, when she started to exhibit signs of force sensitivity, something her parents were afraid of but prepared for. Before anyone was able to notice, Skylar's parents engraved a marking onto her back, one that they both had, which would suppress her force sensitivity to others while looking inconspicuous as a tattoo, which is what she believed it was as she grew up. Even at an early age, the young girl showed an interest and curiosity in starships of all sizes, often asking her parents to get her tours and souvenirs from their work at the drive yards. As soon as she was able, she worked and learned at the drive yards, going through a variety of positions to learn as much as she could. By the time she was 18, Skylar was able to reassemble a fighter, program it herself, and fly it. During her downtime while learning about starships though, her father often took her to the shooting range and taught her how to use and maintain various blasters and other weapons. Although Skylar did not know why she was being taught such things during the time, her father often said that it would help her understand components in a starship, she would later learn that he had been preparing her for life without her parents. Her life would take a turn in 9 BBY however when her parents told her to pack her things and to get out of system with them. The Empire had discovered that Skylar’s parents were Rebel sympathizers and were secretly transferring classified information to the Rebellion. During their escape from Kuat however, Skylar was separated from her parents and while she was able to make her escape out of the system, she never learned what became of her parents. During the time between her escape from Kuat to her signing on to the mercenary group, Skylar kept herself alive with various jobs using her skillset. From being a convoy escort to being an assassin and hunting bounties, she took any job that she could do within reason and even managed to thrive considering the circumstances. Job after job, Skylar wandered the galaxy, never really seeming to find a purpose other than to stay alive and make credits to try and get away from her past life. At this point in her life, she was convinced her parents had died at Kuat after never having heard from them or of them since that fateful day. Eventually, her jobs would lead her to the mercenary group where she was attracted by the large credit reward it was offering.
