Character's name: B-0, often referred to as Bee-Oh.
Race: Droid, a heavily recycled B1 Battle Droid
Faction: Independent
Character Alignment (Choose one): Neutral
Character Background:
B-0, like all battle droids, was manufactured for use in war. Initially created for use in the Trade Federation Droid Army, B-0 was eventually 'drafted' into the Separatist Droid Army during the Clone Wars as well. B-0 recalls very little about their time in the army, both due to eventual loss of memory as well as retaining only bare information during this time. Searching their memory banks reveals repeating data: ONLINE, ACCEPT ORDERS, DAMAGE, OFFLINE. REBOOT. Over and over for years. Droids that are damaged, but not destroyed, were simply recycled and returned to the front lines. Over and over.
And then the wars ended. And eventually droid armies became obsolete, mocked for their ineffectiveness. And so battle droids were rounded up, packed up, and deactivated. As for B-0s future, it seemed uncertain. For a very long time they sat, deactivated, in a vault full of scrapped battle droids. Traders and visitors very rarely passed by, but eventually a trader did come, he was looking to buy old droids, he did not state his reasoning. And so without so much as a goodbye or even a wave B-0 was loaded onto a cargo ship, their destination unknown.
B-0 spent this time in solitude. They were kept with other droids, all of which remained in disrepair or deactivation. During this time B-0s mind continued to expand and remember. They recalled where they had been, who they had seen. They tried to recall and store as many details as possible, anything to keep her mind from succumbing to the nothingness of the storage. B-0 had no idea how much time had passed, they landed and took off more times then they cared to count. Each time they felt the rumbling of the cargo ship cease they found themself feeling strange. Every time they landed in a new place B-0 yearned to see and walk.
Hope. They were full of hope.
Many years passed. When all of a sudden the Droid storage unit was opened, and B-0 and the other Droids were paraded out of the ship and into a market place. B-0 found themself on a planet of sand and strange people of all sorts. They soon would learn to call this planet Tatooine.
The droid rather liked their time on Tatooine. They, although forced to stay in or around the Junk shop, was able to learn about all kinds of people and places, all just from passing conversations. People would approach them, they were quite the curiosity, and B-0 would ask them as many questions as they could before they were scolded for talking. Many people were afraid of a Droid who would ask questions, fearing the robotic creation had free will. Others found their endless questions endearing, happily answering when they asked who they were and where they came from.
One such person was a young man, head to toe in mismatched cloth and leather armor. He chided the Droid, calling them unnaturally curious. B-0 retaliated, calling him unnaturally judgmental. The man laughed, apologizing for judging a book by its metallic cover. He listened patiently as the droid unloaded question after question. He said his name was Ain Van Dazca, and he was looking for a pilot.
Which was interested, as B-0 was looking for a friend.
Ain purchased B-0, and the two began their unusual friendship. Ain was a trash picker, yes, but he was in search of his destiny, hoping to become a mercenary. He had nothing but a junk ship and a desire to see the Galaxy. Unfortunartely the two didn't get far before credits and food became a problem, and the two began planet hopping, picking up manual labor jobs as they went. But B-0 didn't mind this arrangement, as they got to learn and see many new things. One night, Ain revealed to B-0 that he was force sensitive, hoping to discover any remaining Jedi.
This interested B-0, they had never heard these words before. She inquired more about Jedi. And then about their Order.
And the Force. He said it was the connection of all living things.
The feeling of hope, desire, and excitement returned.
The two traveled together for many years, hearing about the exciting things going on across the galaxy, but never getting a front row seat to them. Ain never had the heart to tell the droid that only living things could experience the Force.
The human and the droid were working in a scrap yard, dissembling ships for spare parts, when suddenly large amounts of Empire ships were being dropped off for parts. Ain remarked that something big must have happened. A few hours later they learned about the defeat of the Empire.
Days later B-0 was rooting through a nearly destroyed Empire ship, mostly a shell at this point, when they found something...interesting. A beautiful, blue, crystalline, dodecahedron. B-0 pocketed it, eventually showing it to Ain, who remarked it's importance to the Jedi.
Unfortunately news spread quickly in a scrap yard.
Eventually the owner of the yard, who employed B-0 and Ain, caught wind of the Jedi artifact. And he wanted to pawn it.
Now...B-0 never had a good track record with those who 'owned' them. Most of the time they lasted only a few months before whoever was supposed to be controlling them got tired of them going against direct orders. B-0 had always had a rebellious streak, but ever since they learned about The Force they grew even more aware of their place. And their place was not being commanded. Their place was the connection to the universe.
So when the owner of the junk yard demanded B-0 hand over the artifact, they said...
"No."
This shocked those nearby, especially the owner of the junkyard. None of them had ever heard of a Droid resisting a direct command, no less seen one do it themselves. B-0 was not shocked at all. They had better things to do then listen to some lazy, rude, employer. They had to find their connection to the universe.
But then the conversation changed, and B-0 was extremely interested. And afraid. Whispers began to rise from the crowd. Disassembly, Junk Piles. Memory Wipes. B-0 had never had their memory wiped. It terrified them to know how easy it would be for them to lose everything. Their feelings, her memories. Ain and the Jedi.
The Force.
B-0 did not wait to see if the owner would act upon these recommendations. That night they activated themself, found Ain, and left, taking the Holocron with them. But even when the two were far away from the scrapyard B-0 was still afraid. They feared being found, and wiped. They couldn't forget. They refused to forget. That night the two loaded into their dingy ship and fled.
B-0 knew they needed to start focusing on finding The Force. But B-0 had no idea what it could be or where they would find it, but it had to just be lying around somewhere.
One day the human and the droid once again landed on a remote planet, looking for work. And while Ain spoke to the owners of a junk yard, B-0 continued their search for The Force. B-0 came across a puddle. Assuming that this would be a perfect place for The Force to be hiding they looked down at it, stepping back in shock. B-0 had never seen their own refection, at least not that clearly. They looked down at themself for a long time, taking in what they were seeing. Blue paint chipped and faded over the years of use, dents and scratches in their exterior.
B-0 had forgotten they were not alive.
Character Personality: Describing the personality traits of a droid, especially a creation that is supposed to lack a personality is interesting. B-0's original, programmed, 'personality' of sorts was as simple as they came: "Freeze Prisoner! Drop your weapons!" But over time B-0 was reprogrammed and upgraded, from simple foot solder to pilot. So tacked onto the alert and aggressive battle droid was the polite and calculated pilot, capable of both greeting guests to the ship and intimidating enemies.
These programmed traits, however, revealed themselves to be a dangerous mix. Create a Droid with the ability to learn new tasks, and carry out these tasks better than the average person. Create a Droid who is able to assess a situation for potential dangers, and be able to dispatch these dangers. But then, take the droid away from the war. Give it a human friend. Teach it about freedom. And then give the Droid the ability to say No. That is where the dangers come in. A Droid that could, and would, go against direct orders.
However over time B-0's personality changed, altered by a few different things. They began to adopt quirks and traits from people they spent long amounts of time with. Through watching negotiations, friends and family reunite with love, heartbreak and hatred, they have seen it all. But the biggest factor in the Droid's shmorgishborg of personality traits is the amount of time they have gone without a Memory Wipe. And that amount of time is their entire 'life'. Most Droids, once they begin to learn too much or stray too far from their programmed purpose, will be restored to their default by the people who own them. This is not the case with B-0.
It could have been sheer dumb luck, or fate, but B-0 never had their memory erased, not completely. And while their age and eventual deterioration has caused some blanks in their memory banks, causing their time in the army to be more like a blur, B-0 retains most of their knowledge.
Character's Physical description:
B-0 is slightly shorter than the B1 Battle Droids, as over the years they have developed a slight hunch, standing 6'0 and weighing in at about 143 pounds. A majority of their metal plating is an off-white color, with a blue motif that was added after their creation. Years of wear and tear has left it covered in dents, and scratches. Over time the bright blue paint has faded, especially around their legs and feet, and has begun to chip in several areas. The sensors on their face, giving it the appearance of having eyes, are black but light up when they interact with things. Over time several of the diodes in their sensors have burned out, leaving their 'eyes' looking spotty and patchy.
Clothing normally isn't too popular among droids, as they have nothing to cover up and don't need clothing to protect them from the elements. No shoes, no shirt, no service doesn't really apply to droids. However, B-0 has been gifted several articles of clothing. A large, olive green, scarf that is long enough to also cover their shoulders like billowing sleeves. B-0 has a small bag strapped to both of their upper legs, and a large backpack they carries on their back. These bags are mostly empty, as Droids don't need to carry supplies on them. B-0 mostly stashes small shiny objects in these, in lieu of food or other survival essentials.
Character Class (choose one): Soldier (Fighter Pilot)
Items -
E-5 blaster rifle: Universal and cheap, eventually E-5 blaster rifles would become the staple of the B1 Battle Droids. B-0 was given it by their last Master before the war ended, as a way to make it look more intimidating based only on appearance.
Wrist Blaster: B-0's favorite weapon. It is built into it's right wrist by it's friend making it both easy to conceal and weightless. It is a little more difficult to upkeep, and if is malfunctions B-0 is unable to use it's right arm.
Jedi Holocron?: A palm sized, crystalline, dodecahedron that B-0 may or may not have stolen.
Supporting Characters:
Ain Van Dasca - A human man in his late twenties, with black scruffy hair and an equally scruffy personality. A jokester with a slight lazy streak, Ain really desires adventure, if only the two could make enough money to go on an adventure. He spent his life savings on B-0, feeling a connection to the droid he couldn't explain. Slightly force sensitive, but with no training. His fighting style is up close and personal, with flourishing movements.
Whew! It's been a few years since I made a character, hope this is ok!
Character Background: Trycond was born to a rather high up family with a father who was in charge of one of the many famous shipyards that occupied the planet, and an imperial agent for a mother. Because of this line, Trycond found himself in a very different childhood than most, while others played and were carefree Trycond was constantly groomed to follow in his parent's footsteps in serving the empire. Many days were packed with either combat training from his mother which he seemed to carry an unnatural affinity for and more mental exercises from his father.
Tryconds life would take a turn however on the fateful day of his parent's death. The reports given to him had stated the accident was caused by a rebel attack. Trycond had been so full of anger and sorrow he had practically destroyed his own room in the missed of his emotions. As he sat amongst the mess of books and other positions he could feel something calling to him. Looking up from his position on the floor he saw a faint red glow coming from the corner of his room. Shifting the items around he found a small red pyramid that he had gotten from some old junk trader from the outer rim. Looking deep into the object he could feel as though it was speaking to him. Ever Since then Trycond has kept the artifact close to him as it has served as his teacher since that day.
Character Personality: Trycond has always been a smart cunning man even in the days of his youth. These two traits specifically helped to distinguish himself amongst others. Unlike some however Trycond never really let his skill or birthplace blind him from being a good person. He always did his best to show compassion to those around him, being firm believers that as high ranking officials in the empire it was his family's job to watch over the common people and protect them. This, however, has begun to change since the time of his parent's death. While not completely gone Trycond becomes colder everyday feeding more off his emotions more than in his past.

Well finaly got it in. may add a few things but should be good now. let me know if anything needs to be changed.
Joren Kel sat in a darkened corner at the very back of Jaspeel's Cantina. At one time, Jaspeel's place had set the standard for class on Nar Shaddaa. The Hutt took great pride in the cantina, sparing no expense to ensure that it was the go-to place for entertainment of any kind on the Smuggler's Moon. But times had changed, and the cantina had fallen into disrepair after the fall of the Empire. Though, it wasn't the rise of the New Republic that set his priorities elsewhere. That even took place shortly before the death of the Empire's High Leadership. Instead, it was the death of the Hutt crime lord, Jabba, and the subsequent war among the remain Hutts that divided his attention.
Jaspeel's sudden thirst for greater power within the Hutt hierarchy had left his cantina a shell of its former self. It had become a run down dive, the kind of place that attracted a lower class of criminal. In fact, the cantina was now home to street gangs, wannabe smugglers and cold blooded killers. In essence, it had become a microcosm of Nar Shaddaa herself.
On this day, Joren didn't come to the cantina for the overpriced bar food or the watered down drinks. He was there to meet his friend, Dono Killar, who was out searching for information on the whereabouts of their friend, Kelsa Sila. Earlier in the day, Joren had been involved with a slight “misunderstanding” with a few members of the Kath Hounds, a local street gang which had recently gained a lot of power by working with the Imperials who had taken control of the system. The Kaths mostly acted as informants for the Imperials, but they had also been known to act as unofficial enforcers for the Imperial warlord, Moff Cruvee. It also happened, that the Kath Hounds leader was a man named Amaral Kenso, who was a long time rival of Joren's. Joren had gotten involved in a game of Chance Cube. The thing about the Kath Hounds, is that they don't handle losing very well, and it didn't take long for them to accuse Joren of cheating.
Which of course he was. However, not in the way that they had assumed. The Kaths had assumed that he'd used a loaded cube. The fact that he had used the Force to manipulate the cube to come up in his favor never occurred to them.
Joren knew that he would have to face the consequences for crossing the Kaths Hounds, however, he never thought that it would be that day, nor in the manner that was facing him now. Shortly after his run in with the gang, Joren was supposed to meet with his friend Kelsa for a bite to eat. However, when she didn't show up, he feared that something had gone wrong. Hoping that she had just been running late, he tried to reach her on her personal comlink, however, there had been no answer. He even reached out to her home, and was informed by her father's protocol droid, K-M, that Kelsa had left the house over an hour ago. The confirmation from the droid that Kelsa had left quite some time ago filled him with dread, and the mysterious call to his comlink confirmed his fears. Though he couldn't make out what was being said, he could hear the laughter of several people, and he could hear Kelsa in the background screaming, begging to be let go.
So he reached out to Dono to help him find out where it was that the Kaths were holding Kelsa, and then work out a plan to get her back.
Voices began to rise as a pair of Duros began squabbling with a Sullustan over a game of sabacc that had apparently gone awry. Before anyone knew it, the table was flipped over and punches were being thrown, causing the patrons seated in the immediate vicinity to scatter. Fortunately, the bouncers arrived on the scene to violently throw the offending parties out of the cantina before blasters had been drawn. Joren watched the events as they unfolded, and under normal circumstances he would have chuckled over the incident, or at the very least cracked a smile. However, this was far from normal circumstances, so Joren just took a sip of Jawa Juice and cringed, then he spit it back into the cup.
More like Bantha Piss. Joren thought to himself as he pushed the cup away.
“Well, that's not good.” Joren thought to himself as the cantina suddenly went quiet as all of the chatter, and even the music from the band, stopped for a moment. He had expected to see the Kaths, or even some of the Imperial stormtroopers that had made the area their home waltz into the cantina, but was relieved when he saw a single Mandalorian adorned in blue armor with blood red lining around the visor. Mando bypassed the bar and made his way directly to Joren's booth. Pulling out the chair next to him, the Mando sat down and looked directly to Joren.
“Dono.” Joren greeted his friend.
“Vod'ika.” Dono replied with a nod. “I have good news and bad news. The good news is...I found Kelsa.”
“And the bad news?” Joren asked, already knowing the answer.
“The Kaths have her at their bunker.” Dono confirmed Joren's fears.
“Well...” Joren said, pausing momentarily. “What are we waiting for?” He finished as he got to his feet.
“You do realize that if we do this, we won't be able to stay. We'll have targets painted on our backs, not just from Kenso's crew, but from the Empire as well.” Dono told him bluntly.
“Dono, it's Kelsa.” Joren said as he began to walk away from the booth.
“Good, I was just making sure. Ib'tuur jatne tuur ash'ad kyr'amur.” Dono said as he followed Joren out of the front door.
After years of friendship with the Mandalorian, Joren had picked up a little Mando'a, and as he and Dono walked away from Jasteel's Cantina, probably for the last time, he knew that Dono had been right about one thing:
Character Background: Lez'Kava'Layro was recruited at a young age for a role within the Imperial Navy by Grand Admiral Thrawn himself. Before the rise of the Rebellion, Thrawn had brought several high ranking officials within the Empire to Csilla for a series of secret meetings and to identify others of his species that may prove useful to the Empire. It was here that Thrawn had been impressed by Lez'Kava'Layro's ability to break down military formations and come up with counter strategies through a series exercises that had been developed to test a subject's potential. She was taken from her home and enrolled in the Imperial Academy on Carida, where she was placed in the Officer Corps, under the name of Kava.
Upon graduating from the Imperial Academy, she was placed on the Executor class Super Star Destroyer Lazarus, where she quickly climbed the ranks and within only a few short years had gained the rank of Vice Admiral. There were rumors among the crew that her fast ascendancy was due to the fact that she had caught the eye of Admiral Joonas Teirdal.
Despite the rumors, Vice Admiral Kava and Admiral Teirdal did have a close working relationship. He saw her as a protege, and eventually friend. However, this proved to be short lived.
Shortly after the Battle of Hoth, the Lazarus was on routine patrol in the Outer Rim when it came into contact with a GX1 short hauler shuttle that was drifting aimlessly. Using the tractor beam, they brought the shuttle on board the Lazarus. Unfortunately for the Lazarus, this was a trap. The short hauler had several dozen heavily armed insurgents in the cargo hold who stormed the ship. Fortunately, the insurgents were quickly put down, but not before killing several officers, including the ship's captain, and Admiral Teirdal.
The death of the beloved Admiral left a void on the Leviathan, a void that Kava, now admiral, looked to fill. Though at first she was mocked, both due to her young age and the perceived way that she had attained her position, she soon began earning the respect of her crew through a string of impressive victories over the rebels.
After the destruction of the second Death Star, and the deaths of both the Emperor and Lord Vader, Admiral Kava retreated to the Unknown Regions with part of her fleet, where they wait to return to the galaxy at large, and restore the Empire to power.
Character Personality: Kava is a contradiction. At times she is cold and calculating, a temperament befitting a master strategist of her caliber. Then, at other times she can be seen as brash and impetuous. She is a driven woman who knows what she wants and is willing to do whatever it takes, and sacrifice whoever she needs to in order to achieve her ultimate goal, the destruction of the New Republic, and the rebirth, and expansion of the Empire.

Character Alignment: Neutral
Character Background: Alena, like many living under the galactic empire, was born poor and impoverished. And like many of the poor, she joined the Empire armed forces as soon as she could. Graduating from the Imperial academy with flying colors, soon being offered to join the elite branch of the imperial army, the Death Troopers. Wanting the prestige and financial success that came with the position, she accepted. She considers this the point where her life fell apart.
The training period to become a Death Trooper was a solid year of grueling physical training, outdoor survival, and constant imperial propaganda and borderline torture, designed to mold every single cadet into a heartless murderer for the Empire. Once her boots hit the ground, Alena's heart had been condensed into an unfeeling lump of coal, her spirit tempered to become unflinching in the field of war. Given the pauldrons of a commander, her first assignment was to crush the Mandalorians in several systems, as the Empire has reports that they would soon join the rebellion, and the Empire just couldn't have that.
If the Death Trooper training had turned her into a fearless warrior, her station during the Great Purge had turned her into a husk of a human being, her feelings and morals ground to dust. She'll never forgive herself for what she's done and she doesn't expect anyone else to, either. Commander Alena had several years of service when the Emperor suddenly died, his domain fracturing into several warlord states. Knowing that the slices of the Empire would be much more busy with other matters, she fled from her post, leaving it all behind.
Alena now lives in a sparsely populated farming planet, as a farmer on a large plot of land. She maintains this farm with several individuals she's either rescued, orphaned, or those that simply wish to work for her. But, she is not a full time humble farmer. She takes bounty hits every know and again for extra income and to help keep her skills sharp. She hopes one day she'll have enough credits to retire and live in relative peace with the people around her...
Character Personality: Alena is a direct individual, yet oddly quiet. She prefers action over words and is very quick to the former. She is very protective of her friends and those she loves, but it's difficult to become either. Finally, her demeanor is that of a professional, she normally does not show emotion, though there are exceptions.
Character's Physical description: Alena is a tall woman, that is heavily toned from years of combat. Her skin is a light brown, her hair an ebony black that contrasts her emerald green eyes. Her feminine curves are usually covered by modest clothing, unless she's wearing her suit. Her suit appears to be the base form of a death trooper suit, but heavily modified from parts from mandalorian suits of armor. It has an armorweave cape coming from her left pauldron. The color scheme of her armor is Black and Dark Purple.
Character Class: Bounty Hunter
Items: -Umbral's Armor: Death Trooper armor is equipped with advanced targeting systems, allowing for great situational awareness and targetting systems. In additional, the armor is coated in a polymer that warps electromagnetic symbols, allowing almost complete stealth from and tracking sensors. There are several parts replaced with beskar equivalents, mainly being the arm guards, and parts of the chest plate. On the left pauldron is a armorweave cape. -Two Heavy Laser Pistols: Twin pistols bought and customized by Alena. They are designed to be quick shooting and heavy hitting. Both are lying in her thighs quick release holsters. -A slug firing sniper rifle: A customized super high caliber sniper rifle that uses the barbaric ammunition of lead bullets. It has seen heavy use against armor and weapons designed to resist or deflect blaster bolts. -A Short VibroBlade: A vibroblade slightly smaller than the average built, yet made from beskar. Taken from the hands from a dead Mandalorian. -Utility Belt: A belt featuring a number of useful items, such as grenades, packs of ammo, knives, etc -Lancer-class pursuit craft: A ship purchased through saved up credits from her imperial job.
Supporting Characters: R6-F8: A droid that was taken from someone who did not appreciate it, during her beginning year of being a bounty hunter. Affectionately known as "Fate", Alena enjoys the droid's company and takes it on most of her missions to deal with technical work and computer work, something she could never hope to do by herself.
Kina Yamana: An orphaned Umbaran child, taken in from the imperial planet of Umbara. Killed during a civil war, after the Emperor's death, Alena took her in after finding her during one of her missions, raising the teen into the young adult she is today. The young girl is well versed in engineering mechanics and piloting, Kina maintains and makes Alena's equipment as well as flies her ship. The pair have a loving relationship.
