Tentatively flagging interest for akkd0g_ as a specialist (hacker), pending character approval. Could also probably case the place too if we're in a pinch.
Do you enjoy writing collaborative posts for things like conversations, combat, etc.? Yes. I almost always find that it's easier and more fulfilling to sit down for a few hours and write a scene in a collaboration of some kind than to play purely by post.
Is grammar and depth of writing important to you? Yes. Part of my appeal to roleplaying is to improve my writing skills and write an engaging story, so both are important to me.
Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring? I enjoy exploring moral "shades of gray" areas in almost any setting but especially Star Wars, where the focus can be often on "light versus dark."
Is there anything you really dislike and want to avoid like the plague? Nothing comes to mind at first thought, but I'm sure there will be a couple of things here and there. I'll make it known if I think of anything.
Is there something you are uncomfortable with happening to your character? Again, nothing comes to mind at first thought. I'd like anything excessive to be omitted or faded to black, but I think that's covered in RPG rules anyway.
Do you have any short-term or long-term goals with this character? In the short term, much like my other character, I'm just hoping to get my feet wet with StarWarsPG and get started a little more. In the long term, I want to see how far I can go with the underworld scene in StarWarsPG, mostly by way of the character's clout and what she can pull off.
Name: Operates under the alias "akkd0g_", but research suggests her true name is Sola Tymon. Species: Human, or at least some variety of near-human. Homeworld: Nar Shadda. Age: 29, twenty-nine. Gender: Female. Specialisation: Information technology infiltration specialist; or more crudely, a slicer. Current area of operation: Recent activity places her to the polar east of Nar Shadda.
Detailed appearance.
Footage of akkd0g_ suggests that she stands at approximately 5 feet and 3 inches with a pale complexion and a malnourished build. It has been over a decade since she has been seen without wearing her CIT headset, which would suggest adverse effects on and around her eyes that could make her easily identifiable. While much of her fashion choice hides her build, her build has been identified as underweight. She is a known amputee and cyborg, with a prosthetic right arm and an elaborate suite of cybernetics beyond that. While her hair is naturally a dark brown, she frequently dyes it a dark blue. She is known to maintain a shave on one side of her head, underneath the mainstay of her hair. She is covered in an elaborate set of tattoos, from the shaved side of her head to her arm and legs at length, which largely details abstract art.
Report on skills and talents, including level of skill.
akkd0g_ is a known computers prodigy, with comprehensive skills and abilities in computers and computer systems penetration well above her peers. She has performed several successful attacks on Imperial computer systems in return for financial compensation from the RSIS before, and it is known she has attacked Republic computer systems before as well. Furthermore, she has displayed reliable skill in electronics and to a lesser extent, mechanics.
Report on known combat experience, training and weapons training.
akkd0g_ is known to be a trained combatant, but nothing on her own merit. Her elaborate suite of computer and cybernetic systems are known to either augment her combat abilities or outright automate them.
Does the POI have, or have they ever had, a bounty on them? Are they wanted?
akkd0g_ is wanted by several influential persons across the galaxy, including prominent crime lords in the Nar Shadda locale, influential Imperial politicians, and corporate information executives. The average bounty sits at 600,000 credits. Significantly, only one of the several contracts will accept her delivered dead.
Detailed notes on common/favored employers and any noteworthy contacts.
akkd0g_ has performed repeated work for the RSIS against Imperial and criminal elements. She is known to accept private work from a selection of corporate and criminal authorities, as well as select government agencies.
Detailed notes on known rivals and enemies.
Above all of her known rivals, two stand out above the rest: Othiordugg Kuc, a Hutt known to manage a major criminal enterprise from the polar east of Nar Shadda, and Irvcaso Skaarr, an information executive for a major mining conglomerate.
akkd0g_ is known to have an extensive history with Kuc and Skaarr, who are closely related to one another. To summarise, akkd0g was born as a slave and was sold to Kuc by Skaarr at a young age. Until she escaped captivity at 17, there was a known history of abuse, violence, and sexual violence by the two and their colleagues. akkd0g_ has since made repeated efforts, most of which successful, to disrupt their operations and make the pair vulnerable for a physical attack. The two have since posted several bounties for akkd0g_.
List and description of other known associates.
akkd0g_ is known to have a range of associates throughout the information industry and the criminal underworld, but few are known to RSIS.
List of known belongings, including but not limited to planetary surface property, civilian and military vessels, vehicles, weapons, tools.
While akkd0g_ is not on record as owning any property, it is suspected that she operates out of safehouses purchased through aliases or organised through associates. akkd0g_ hasn't been seen for over a decade without her Complete Immersion Terminal (CIT) headset, which RSIS understands provides her with means to include information systems and holonet integration by way of extensive augmented reality capabilities.
akkd0g_ is known to make use of an elaborate suite of cybernetics. This is known to include: - A biofeedback regulator at the base of the skull, to facilitate a large quantity of cybernetics; - A surge override switch on the left shoulder blade, to protect cybernetics from damage from overload and attempt to restart disabled cybernetics; - A gank communication implant housed in the ear canals, to allow silent holocommunication from thoughts; - A neuromachine interface seated into the brainstem, to allow control of vehicles and droids by thought; - A prosthetic right arm, which includes an implanted cyberjack concealed in the palm integrated with the organic central nervous system, a digital lockpick concealed in a finger, and a cyberscanner concealed in the forearm.
akkd0g_ is known to wear an elaborate armour set while operating. The mainstay of the set is predicted to be made out of armourweave and durasteel, with coverage to various degrees of protection for all bar the face and the top of the head. This set is integrated with a powered exoskeleton, which significantly facilitates four droid limbs from the back of the exoskeleton. This exoskeleton is known to include computer componentry to augment slicing efforts, manage the droid limb suite, and provide fine control over the exoskeleton. The droid limbs are known to be capable of operating autonomously or being directly controlled through the neuromachine interface. The top two limbs are known to have four fingers and a thumb while the bottom two limbs are known to have two fingers and a thumb.
Furthermore, akkd0g_ is known to own a number of weapons. She has been seen carrying no less than two heavy blaster pistols and no less than one blaster sniper rifle. All of these weapons have been identified as information system integrated.
Psychological evaluation of POI.
Psychological evaluation of the POI asserts that there is strong evidence of sustained psychological trauma in the POI. Presentations of this include an abnormal and actively detrimental diet, aversion to social contact, a selective lack of empathy, and a history of substance abuse. Despite this, akkd0g_ is very much active and functional - enough to intimidate a corporate executive and a crime lord - which places her in a lower risk category. The evaluation concludes that the POI likely sustains a mix of post-traumatic stress.
List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into a restricted database.
akkd0g_ is known to intermittently use recreational drugs, namely spice. While she is ingesting spice less than she did and is actively attempting to break her reliance on the drug, efforts are known to be unreliable. Withdrawal symptoms are known to strongly affect her, particularly when she is stressed.
akkd0g_ is known to be poorly built. While she compensates for her malnourishment with technology when she suspects she may be at physical risk, she is ultimately fragile. She is significantly more vulnerable to physical injury and illness than the average human.
Known interests of the POI.
akkd0g_ is known to use and maintain computers recreationally. She is a known to frequently several online forums, normally in regards to technology and the information systems industry. She is an outspoken anti-authoritarian activist and in pursuit of this interest has interfered with and organised interference against corporate, Imperial, and criminal operations.
Major achievements on record.
akkd0g_ is known to have played an integral part on coordinating a major effort to break into a selection of Imperial Intelligence databases, on commission by the RSIS. She exceeded her operational objectives to ██████ ██████ █████████ by ████████ ████ ██████████ to the █████████, as well as ███████ ██████ █████████████. Tragically, most of ███ █████████████ was ████ ██ ████████ ██████████████ █████████.
akkd0g_ has coordinated or single-handedly executed major efforts to disrupt Imperial, corporate, and criminal element operations. Over her career as a slicer-at-large, she has played a major role in preventing operations from executing correctly or ideally, destroying criminal and corporate enterprises, and murdering no less than ██ influential leaders in target groups. A significant example, which has since been used as a case study for aspiring RSIS operatives, was the ███████ incident. Fearing for his life after a number of his subordinates were assassinated, ███████ the Hutt went into hiding. akkd0g_ instead targetted his infrastructure, eroding the capability of his criminal enterprise until it functionally collapsed. When ███████ came out of hiding to try and recover his operation, he was beaten to death by several compromised dock loading droids.
Major failures on record. Confidential.
In one of her early jobs working for the RSIS, akkd0g_ attempted to intercept data on Imperial fleet movements in the Balmorra locale. While she was partially successful, she was compromised and traced by an Imperial information security specialist. At the time, she was operating out of a concealed resistance facility in Balmorra. While the refugees and insurgents were evacuated prior to Imperial retaliation, the facility was ultimately lost.
In an attempt to disrupt Skarr's corporate operations, akkd0g_ took control of the docking systems on a mining station and disabled the ship locks on 4 transport cruisers. With the intent to send the cruisers drifting into the neighboring asteroid field, she attempted to program the auxiliary thrusters to send them away from the station. Instead, she negligently programmed them to move sideways, sending them into the station docks. Up to 800 civilian workers were killed and 1,400 injured in the resulting collisions, which resulted in up to 1,400,000 credits in damages. Significantly, this occurred in republic space.
Personal biography, established from known history. Compiled shortly after last achievement of note.
akkd0g_ was born in the lower floors of Nar Shadda. Her mother was a slave owned by Irvasco Skarr, which meant she was a slave owned by him as well. She was put to what work she was capable of as soon as she could, which records suggest was as early as 9 years old. Records also suggest that there was a history of violence and abuse from a selection of staff that started when she was approximately 11. She was sold to Kuc the Hutt shortly after.
akkd0g_ initially worked as a waitress for the hutt, but was forced into working as a dancer shortly after turning 13. Records suggest that the history of abuse and violence continued, which later escalated to sexual violence sometime in the next few years. It was during this time where she was initially exposed to computers, which she clung to as a hobby and a means to help her escape.
She was a part of an unsuccessful slave escape attempt at 16, which resulted in the hutt's enforcers treating her and the other participants much more severely. She later took part in a successful revolt at 17, where footage details her using crude security spikes to assist the revolt and killing at least one enforcer in a messy panic. Following the revolt, she fled into Nar Shadda.
Records from this point are uncertain, as there are no reliable accounts to track her progression. It is believed that she initially moved between slave sympathetic safehouses before being captured by a gang. Her first major reappearance was when she was 19, where she compromised several turrets to murder the mainstay of the aforementioned gang and published a death threat against the leader of the gang. He was found dead later that month with no less than 17 stab wounds.
Shortly before a high profile attack on Skarr's mining operations (the incident aforementioned in major failures), a "calling card" was delivered to Skarr detailing a death threat, from "akkd0g_". This is considered her first major debut into the underworld scene as an influential slicer by the mainstay of the underworld, as well as the RSIS. This was at approximately 23 years of age. It was a consequence of this attack that she came to the attention of the RSIS, which led to contact being established at ██████, ████████████. This is where she began completing intermittent contracts for the RSIS.
At 25 years of age, akkd0g_ published a calling card detailing a death threat on the holonet, which was addressed to Kuc the Hutt. Shortly after, a portion of his fleet was commandeered by droids and began firing into other vessels in the fleet. The engagement ended when the commandeered ships were either destroyed or collided with other vessels in the fleet. Since this incident, akkd0g_ has been considered a high profile bounty. Coordinated efforts from Skarr and Kuc the Hutt continue to present day.
There are no other significant events to detail. She has since been pursuing a mix of contract work employing her information technology infiltration skills, mostly illegally, and pursuing her own ambitions of disrupting the operations of her enemies and of influential authoritarians - significantly, including influential Imperial officers and Sith Lords.
How long do you usually write? Several paragraphs.
Do you enjoy writing collaborative posts for things like conversations, combat, etc.? Yes. I almost always find that it's easier and more fulfilling to sit down for a few hours and write a scene in a collaboration of some kind than to play purely by post.
Is grammar and depth of writing important to you? Yes. Part of my appeal to roleplaying is to improve my writing skills and write an engaging story, so both are important to me.
Are there any writing subjects you particularly enjoy exploring? I enjoy exploring moral "shades of gray" areas in almost any setting but especially Star Wars, where the focus can be often on "light versus dark."
Is there anything you really dislike and want to avoid like the plague? Nothing comes to mind at first thought, but I'm sure there will be a couple of things here and there. I'll make it known if I think of anything.
Is there something you are uncomfortable with happening to your character? Again, nothing comes to mind at first thought. I'd like anything excessive to be omitted or faded to black, but I think that's covered in RPG rules anyway.
Do you have any short-term or long-term goals with this character? In the short term, I'm largely hoping to use this character to find my way and my feet in RPG's Star Wars persistent galaxy. I'd like to establish the character and do some networking to get started. In the long term, I'm hoping to explore political ambitions in the Empire as a non-Sith, whether in the same or in different spheres.
Name: Corvane Voycnor.
Species: Human.
Pureblood percentage: 14 percent.
Homeworld: Dromund Kaas.
Age: 31, thirty-one.
Gender: Male.
Military branch: Imperial Navy Diplomatic Corps.
Rank: Commander.
Unit/designation: Attached to HQ 37 Imperial Navy Flotilla, although often operates at length from them.
Current place of service: Currently in operation in the Nal Hutta locale, pending reassignment.
Sphere of influence: Sphere of Expansion and Diplomacy.
Detailed appearance.
Corvane is measured to be 5 feet and 10 inches tall, which the assessment team notes comply with the employment requirements for the Imperial Navy. When examined for physical fitness, Corvane performed to the 72nd percentile of assessed navy officers in the past three years. He is noted to have a dark complexion and at the time of review, he was bald and wore a beard. The assessment team notes that the beard has been authorized by CO HQ 37 Imperial Navy Flotilla and is compliant with navy regulation. Amusingly, the assessment team notes that the enlisted men enjoy joking that Corvane "hides razors in his coat" and "pisses with one hand and shaves with the other", as they have "never seen him with a hair on his head." The assessment team notes that disciplinary action was issued to the involved parties. Refer to Annex A for further information on physical assessment results.
Report on skills and talents, including level of skill
Review of activity on operations shows that Corvane has demonstrated his talent in investigation and negotiation on several occasions. Corvane has also demonstrated talent in managing projects and personnel, which has consistently resulted in Imperial resources promised to negotiation outcomes not requiring commitment. More mundanely, Corvane displayed skill in personal presentation and bearing when assessed by the assessment team. As a result of this assessment, Corvane has been listed as an instructor candidate at the Academy of Diplomacy. Refer to Annex B for relevant operational history.
Report on known combat experience, training and weapons training.
Corvane was taught conventional and substandard gravity infantry combat as part of the curriculum at the Imperial Academy of Naval Command, but he has made little use of these skills operationally. More relevantly, Corvane further specialized in pistol combat and concealed arms combat while studying at the Bureau of Investigation and the Academy of Diplomacy respectively. Assessment results and deployment history make it clear that these skills have been exercised much more frequently on operations both domestic and abroad. Refer to Annex C for assessment results.
Report on the role, specialization, and responsibilities pertaining to the subject's military deployment.
Corvane is currently serving as a liaison officer. Corvane specializes in foreign liaison, where he is responsible for managing and executing diplomatic efforts with foreign powers. He is accountable for a staff of 3 to 10 personnel, plus attachments if required. Formerly, Corvane served as an Internal Affairs Investigator and a Military Police Officer. Refer to Annex D for the currently applicable duty statement.
Detailed notes on political influence and associates.
Corvane is noted by the assessment team to have some political clout within the Empire, but none that is out of tolerance for a serving officer of the Diplomatic Corps. He is known to have close associates in Internal Affairs, the Bureau of Investigation, and the Academy of Diplomacy, although their relationship is measured to be mutual and platonic. He is also known to have business and political associates on Balmorra, as relevant to his property portfolio. Corvane has reported that he is unmarried and that he does not have romantic or sexual partners. Refer to Annex E for subject sociogram.
Detailed notes on known rivals and enemies, outside and within the Empire.
Corvane has reported several foul relations with Imperial citizens. Most of these foul relations have been subject of his investigations as an internal affairs investigator and the remainder have been assessed as a negligible risk to the wellbeing of the Empire. Corvane has also reported a number of foul relations outside of the Empire, mostly by way of foreign representatives that refused to partake in non-combative negotiations within outlined tolerances. Some of these have been assessed to be of low risk to the wellbeing of the Empire and have been noted accordingly. Refer to Annex F for the relevant risk assessment documentation.
List and description of other known associates, including subordinates.
Corvane is accountable for Lieutenant F. Tierden, light spacecraft pilot, and Crewman S. Tiedee, secretary. Refer to Annex G and H for personnel files.
List of known all ownerships, including vessels, non-standard equipment, slaves and locations.
Corvane has been issued with an imperial shuttle for use when operating independently from 37 Navy Flotilla. In addition to the standard-issue sidearm issued to officers, he maintains a pair of single-use micro blasters, which he hides in his boots and his sleeves. He is known to have a small property portfolio of apartments and a foodstuff production factory on Balmorra. Refer to Annex I and J for a quartermaster's report and for his property portfolio.
Psychological evaluation of candidate.
Psychological assessment of the subject certifies that the subject is in good health. When examined for signs of trauma, the candidate responded in the low response range; this would suggest that the subject has experienced traumatic events during his service and has adapted his behaviors in response healthily, with no signs of alarming psychological trauma. The assessment team notes that during scenario assessment exercises, the subject responded urgently when not in control of a situation. Further examination by the psychological assessment authority shows that this behavior is of low risk to the wellbeing of the Empire. The psychological assessment authority did express some concern and saw fit to include this behavior in his personnel file for future reference. Refer to Annex K for the subject's psychological assessment report.
List and description of known and suspected flaws. To be put into a restricted database.
As aforementioned, the subject responded with urgency when placed in a situation where he was not in control. Further examination showed an elevated heart rate (70%> MHR), increased blood pressure (average 135/85 mmHg), and increased bloodstream adrenaline content, that is inconsistent with physical activity levels at the time of assessment and subject physical assessment results (Annex A). The psychological assessment authority suggests that this is an adaptive behavior in response to some variety of psychological trauma. The psychological assessment also noted that this behavior is common with Imperial officers, particularly those accountable to Sith Lords, and that it is of low risk to the wellbeing of the Empire. It has, as aforementioned, been submitted to the file of the subject for clarity across the services and for ongoing monitoring. Refer to Annex K for the subject's psychological assessment report.
Known interests of the candidate.
Despite Corvane's noted adverse reactions of lacking control, he has reported that he follows the professional evaluation of brown liquor, maintains a personal collection, and drinks brown liquor approximately once per week (Dromund Kaas local time). Corvane reports that he follows and frequently watches live theater. Significantly, Corvane has some influence in the broader live theater community on Dromund Kaas, and sponsors several live theater groups local to his property portfolio on Balmorra. The assessment team notes that when cross-referencing this information with his bank statements, the assessment team noted a number of purchases related to romantic comedy movies. When questioned, Corvane admitted he is a romantic comedy enthusiast but prefers that not to be known.
Major achievements on record.
Towards the end of his career as an internal affairs investigator, Corvane accessed files on a cold case as result of the course of his investigation regarding an active case. Corvane took the cold case files, found the two cases to be related, and solved both cases simultaneously within 2 months (Dromund Kaas local time). As a result of the investigation, up to 55 active serving personnel were arrested, of which 49 were convicted, including a high profile Lieutenant Colonel.
Within the past month (Dromund Kaas local time), Corvane successfully closed negotiations with a selection of prominent Hutt cartel personalities operating out of the Nal Hutta locale. Corvane entered negotiations on the back foot after deploying reactively to a succeeding Galactic Republic diplomatic envoy. After starting negotiations by being threatened by an influential Nal Hutta personality, Corvane closed negotiations having secured the arrest and extradition of the Republic diplomatic envoy, a trade agreement concerning unprocessed spice, and authority to operate on behalf of the Empire in select regions of the Nal Hutta locale. Notably, this was secured with less than 50 Imperial casualties.
Major failures on record. Confidential.
Corvane's career as an Internal Affairs Investigator ended after Corvane was found to have organized forged evidence to make a high profile arrest. Corvane was investigating an unaccounted 120,000 credits per financial year from operations in an asteroid mine in the Dromund Kaas locale. Corvane believed that the operations officer managing the facility was responsible. When the investigation came to a halt, Corvane used associates related to his operations on Balmorra to forge evidence incriminating the operations officer. The operations officer was arrested but the evidence was proven falsified during the ensuing legal battle. The operations officer was later cleared of all charges. Another internal affairs investigator later found that the credits being funneled to the slaves by the quartermaster, who was funding an insurrection.
Corvane was arrested and convicted of falsification of evidence. He was fined and sentenced to 5 years hard labor but paid bail to avoid the prison sentence.
Personal biography, as detailed by the subject for use in imperial archives.
INTERVIEWER: Time is 19:31 in local time, Dromund Kaas, timezone 4. State your name, rank, and occupation for the record. SUBJECT: Corvane Voycnor. Commander. Foreign liaison officer. INTERVIEWER: We are collecting your account of your life up until this point. This is for reference of authorized agents of the Galactic Empire. Do you understand? SUBJECT: Yes. INTERVIEWER: Begin by describing your early years. From your earliest memories to 12 years of age. SUBJECT: I was born and raised in Kaas City. My mother was in active service in the Naval Education Corps. My father was executed for treason before I was old enough to remember him. INTERVIEWER: Your father was a traitor? Elaborate. SUBJECT: He provided information on communications encryption to the SIS. INTERVIEWER: That is unfortunate. Carry on. SUBJECT: My mother was a wealthy woman. She was a Commander and assisted in managing the Education Corps curriculum. Beyond that, she had a growing property portfolio in Kaas City. As such, my upbringing was comfortable. My needs were met and I was enriched as I needed it, with my mother's approval. INTERVIEWER: Is your mother still in active service? SUBJECT: No, she has since retired. INTERVIEWER: And was she strict? Lenient? Fair? SUBJECT: She was strict. She would strike me over the knuckles when I tried to write with my left hand. There were a few instances where she didn't have the patience to maintain it. I believe it was for the best. She taught me to be driven and uncompromising. She was a single mother, she would know it best. INTERVIEWER: How is your relationship now? SUBJECT: It's good. We're in regular contact and I visit frequently. INTERVIEWER: Tell me about your education. You mentioned that you studied in a private institution? SUBJECT: Yes. I studied at an elite school in Kaas City. The school prided itself on the vast majority of the students moving on to and graduating from a command academy. INTERVIEWER: 92 percent of students, as of current. I'm familiar with the institution. I have your grades here with me. You did well, but you didn't exceed expectations. Why not? SUBJECT: I didn't care for it enough. I knew what I wanted to do. INTERVIEWER: And that was Internal Affairs Investigation? SUBJECT: No. I wanted to go into the Naval Intelligence Office. Internal Affairs was my second preference. INTERVIEWER: I also have noticed that you were suspended once for striking another student. Tell me about that SUBJECT: We had been aggravating one another for the better part of two weeks. He sent one of his slaves to heckle me in the yard, so I confronted him. I imagine the record notes that I instigated the physical assault, which is true. As an adult, I disapprove of the decision. INTERVIEWER: The record does state that. Very well. You then graduated from the institution to study at the Academy of Naval Command. Can you elaborate on that? SUBJECT: My mother purchased my commission and I enrolled in the Naval Command Academy. I studied for 4 years and continued to study at the Bureau of Investigation for another year and a half. I then entered active service. INTERVIEWER: And your record at the academy was impeccable, even if your grades stayed little better than good. You didn't care enough then, either? SUBJECT: I cared then. I focused on reliable consistency, on my mother's advice. INTERVIEWER: How quaint. So you then entered active service. Meritious service medals, commanders commendations, even medals for gallantry. That is an impressive record for an investigator. So why did you do it? SUBJECT: Neither of us are here to speak vaguely, sir. You mean when I fabricated evidence incriminating the site operations officer. INTERVIEWER: Then let's be frank. Why did you do it, Commander? SUBJECT: Everything I had suggested that he did it but that he had destroyed the evidence, so I made my own. INTERVIEWER: That was an awful breach of conduct. You could have gone to prison. You were lucky that you had the capital. The site quartermaster was later arrested and found guilty. Do you regret the decision you made? SUBJECT: I don't regret fabricating the evidence. I regret that I didn't get it right. [The assessment team notes that the interviewer and the subject sat in silence for up to 7 seconds before continuing.] INTERVIEWER: So you were then removed from work in internal affairs. Your talents were judged more appropriate in foreign liaison. An interesting decision, but your record is clear in the rationale. How do you find your current work? SUBJECT: It's a refreshing change of pace from investigation. I find that it's more relevant to my skills, both within and without active service. INTERVIEWER: You're referring to your property portfolio on Balmorra? It's an interesting place to invest, with the ongoing civil war. When did you start investing? SUBJECT: At twenty-three. Once again, at my mother's advice. INTERVIEWER: And it has been going rather well for you. You've made an effort to invest in the surrounds, namely in theater and infrastructure. Your investments have been attracting a high-class clientele. I gather this goes beyond your love of opera? SUBJECT: Both of my motives benefit one another. It's a well-thought investment. INTERVIEWER: Perhaps so. Despite your... transgressions, you are once again established with meritorious service, if not a little heavy-handed at times. Where do you plan to progress too from here, Commander? SUBJECT: I plan to focus on my own property portfolio. I will need something to retire into and I will need an established network if I intend to inherit my mother's properties in Kaas City. INTERVIEWER: Your record notes that you are steadily becoming poised to break into politics. What do you have to say about that? SUBJECT: Property, business, and politics aren't mutually exclusive. If one begets the other and is a smart decision, I may very well. INTERVIEWER: Very well, everything here has been addressed. The time is 19:39 in local time, Dromund Kaas, timezone 4. Closing documentation.
Do you have any thoughts or rules on multiple characters, characters on different sides, or characters not directly involved with the war initially at this stage? Or thoughts on a character that's influential in a group of NPC's, such as a gang? I'm kicking around a couple of ideas, like someone influential in an initially indifferent gang that's eventually pushed or forced to take a side, and having another more antagonistic character - preferably tailored to another player or a group of - working for the other side for a bit of variety.
