Name: Markus Thane
Age: 25
Race: Human (Coruscanti)
Brief Bio: Born to a family of merchants on Coruscant on Level 385, young Markus learned rather quickly that the levels of Coruscant does not care for the weak, the ill-prepared. Throughout most of his early to late childhood, he often interacted with the lower... characters of the galactic underworld, courtesy thanks to his parents. He was taught to be a cutthroat, to be resourceful to his own merit. As his father once said "Trust nobody. Not even droids because they are likely to be spies." Of course, that didn't stop him from dabbling in droids and gaining some skills for engineering, but his main field has always been in trade. However, while his parents would have liked for him to be a more 'squeaky clean'-type with contacts to the underworld, Markus embraced the underworld, getting into leagues with various crime lords throughout Coruscant. While others would have favored a faction, or had been forced to join, Markus kept his wits to himself and never joined a particular side. To him, he sees it as an opportunity. Why risk your neck for some guy you never even bother to meet? After all, when there is conflict - there is money to be made, regardless of who.
Faction: None/Independent
Personality: Because of his upbringings as a merchant's son, Markus had a sense of independence which further brought on during his dealings with the underworld. He would often separate himself from being too close to one organization, just being on the outlayer to them. It was a mechanism to ensure that he would not get drag into a particular faction and risked being killed for some ideals or strength. Money is money and he would gladly trade with whoever is paying the most. In fact, if one faction is growing too much power, he would simple give supplies to the opposing side to help turn the table.
