    Still working on the character. I've added some skills and equipment, but not totally finished yet. Just had some questions:

    1: I have a small amount of credits from picking scum, and a large amount from picking trader. Should I list those as separate entities?

    2: How many followers does the normal upbringing give?

    Gave a bit of an edit. For the legion, navy, and planet, I'll leave that to you!

    Hmmm... Alright. I am curious as how you will RP that.

    Let me know when you finish editing the character.

    1.Just write credits and in the brackets indicate from what events.

    2. Hmm... As many as your backstory makes believable.

    But no, I will not consider whole Empire as family:)

    Yeah, intuitive came into my mind - maybe that is the best word.

    I forgot to say that I haven't had any good ideas for the crime boss Nami owes money to yet. If you want to make something up for him yourself, I'm very happy with that! Or let me know if you need me to just decide on the details. :)

    If it’s still okay to get involved, I’d really love to! Really sorry if I’ve made any mistakes with character creation - more than happy to change anything that needs reworking!

    Name: Serillia
    Race: Zeltron
    Origin: Slave
    Age: 22

    it was pretty hard finding a Zeltron I was happy with, but here’s an approximation! Otherwise, Seri is petite, only 5’2, with hair that’s either a cold blue or platinum blonde depending on her preference, worn shoulder length. Her skin is a “bubblegum” shade of pink. She has a slim, curvy figure, with a petite waist and generous bust and hips

    https://postimg.cc/N9Kg0Mg9 [IMG/]

    Serillia, or Seri, was born to a wealthy, influential Zeltron couple on Zeltros. Not that she ever knew them.
    Seeking further wealth, along with sensation and hedonism, her parents sold her as an infant, to an Arkanian Scientist named Kylos for an hefty sum and certain biological upgrades.
    Seri began life as an experiment, as Kylos tinkered with her genetic code, altering her natural Zeltron pheromones, more out of curiosity than utility.
    Kylos grew bored with the project in time, turning his attentions to more dangerous biological experimentation, leaving Seri “half-finished”. Where other Zeltrons find themselves able to use their pheromones to influence and entice those around them, Seri is a victim of hers, unable to directly control them, often leading to unwanted attention and unintended consequences. She also finds herself easily influenced in turn by the moods and whims of those around her.
    She served Kylos loyally as little more than a slave for most of her youth, assisting him in his lab. Though Kylos had a certain, distant affection for the girl, he could be verbally abusive and cruel, but that never stopped Seri striving for his approval and affection.
    She developed a decent amount of skill in computing and slicing during this time, and in her few moments of downtime, practised dancing and singing.
    Eventually, Kylos entrusted her with maintenance of his experiments’ cells. She did what she could to make their lives more comfortable, and often sang to the poor wretches.
    In this way, she made her first true friend - “Strog” - a sullen, embittered Gank warrior who had fallen into Kylos’ clutches.
    Eventually Strog managed to engineer a breakout of Kylos’ most dangerous subjects. The Arkanian fled, leaving Seri to her fate. Strog managed to keep her safe and help her to an off world shuttle, but seemingly perished soon after.
    Alone, Seri drifted around the outer rim, eventually falling into a life of entertainment. For a time, this amounted to little more than turning tricks, but a chance encounter with Adara, a Devaronian crime boss, saw her given a steady job as a dancer and singer in Adara’s club, The Twisted Tale.
    For a few years, Seri actually enjoyed her work, and earned Adara’s protection, becoming the older woman’s lover. She was popular, regularly attracting a crowd, even flirting willingly with clients of Adara’s to sweeten deals. This arrangement turned sour, however, when Adara coerced Seri into a private performance for a particularly important client.
    Seri knew she had to leave, having seen what she was really worth to Adara.
    Using a combination of her natural charms and hacking ability, she emptied a holdout account of Adara’s and fled.
    Now, she’s on the run, with a bounty on her head and rapidly dwindling funds, trying to keep herself free and survive as best she can.

    Events:
    1. Scientist - Engineer
    2. Entertainer - Talent
    3. Scum

    Skills:
    Engineering +2 (Engineer)
    Science +2 (Computing/Slicing - if that fits!)
    Persuasion +1 (Talent) +1 (Age)
    Subterfuge +1 (Talent)
    Entertainment (Dancing) +2 (Talent) +1 (Slave)
    Sneak +1 (Scum)
    Blaster +1 (Scum)
    Street Cred +1 (Scum)
    Underground Connections +1 (Scum)

    Equipment:
    - Concealed blaster
    - Portable slicing/hacking deck (perhaps this could count as the “lab”)
    - A significantly depleted fund of credits

    Perks: (from a mix of Seri’s natural appearance and her slightly faulty pheromones)
    - Beautiful
    - Charismatic

    Drawbacks:
    - Bounty (posted by Adara following Seri’s escape)
    - Bad Influence (Seri’s childhood has lead her to desperately crave affection and validation - additionally, her haywire pheromones leave her open to bad influences)

    Sure! You are welcome to join!
    Let's see...

    In skills, Engineer and science are two separate skill - each with two points. And you should choose the field in science your character specializes in.

    Besides that, the character looks great!

    I will be calling it a night.
    Hope you enjoyed the intro.

    I usually give 1-2 replies a day at random times, sometimes more - so it's a rather slow game. Hope you will be in for a long haul ~

    Night!

    Name: Olena Stepanova

    Race: Amaran

    [​IMG]


    Origin: Normal! -Ish. Olena is estranged from most of her immediate family, but her eldest brother and a good chunk of the younger firebrands and older, bitter members of her village and surrounding community chose to join her in the fight for freedom, joining the closest Rebel Alliance cell able and willing to take on new recruits.

    Event: Rebel "Insurgent" Commando / Entertainer "Local" Talent

    Perks: Beautiful (And she knows it, it's gotten her in trouble in her village) / Strong (Farm Girl Amazon strength)
    Drawbacks: Phobia (Complete and Utter Isolation) / Bounty (She's a Rebel)

    Skills:

    Blaster - 1 (Normal! Skillpoint) + 1 (Rebel "Insurgent" Commando)
    Subterfuge - 1 (Rebel Insurgent) + 1 (Entertainer "Local" Talent)
    Dancing - 2 (Local Talent)
    Sneaking - 1 (Rebel Insurgent)
    Demolitions - 1 (Rebel Insurgent)
    Persuasion - 1 (Local Talent)
    Melee - 1 (Finishing Touch)

    Equipment:

    A-280 Blaster Rifle

    Summary: Olena is an Amaran farmer and rancher whose family moved to the planet of Naboo, one of the first wave of Amaran settlers that sought to expand from their home planet of Amar in The Slice of the Inner Rim. Trading with both Humans and Gungans in crops and cattle, Olena learned to appreciate different species from a young age, what would soon become a point of tension with the Galactic Empire as her personality and values crystallized. Another point against the Empire was the fact she lived in the shadow of the occupation of the planet, the dissolving of the office of Governor of Naboo, and the defanging of political power of Naboo's elected monarchs in favor of the Empire's sector Moff, Quarsh Panaka.

    Of course, Olena still had a life to live, and even overhearing the grumblings of her father, they both agreed that had to take precedence... Perhaps not on the path she took to live that life. She was a dutiful daughter and a handy rancher, executing her duties on the farm with a smile and an easy demeanor. However, as she grew older and her form filled out, she drew the attention of many young men and even some women, both her neighbors and those admirers she would gather at festivals... And she liked it. She grew to crave the physical affection and companionable love of a paramour... Or paramours. Her father disapproved, but ultimately shrugged his shoulders. Her mother, however, became abusive, berating her for being so shameful without end.

    It all came to a head when Olena's mother caught her with a lover in the barn. The young man fled as the women argued. Olena couldn't tell anyone who would hear her story whether it was her or her mother who threw the first blow, but in the ensuing scuffle, a light source was knocked over and ignited the building. Already struggling under the anti-alien regime, Olena's father judged himself financially ruined as a result of the exorbitant costs it would take to repair the barn and committed suicide. Olena was the first to discover his body, before promptly fleeing to her paramour's house. Judging the Empire to be ultimately responsible for killing her father, Olena vowed to join the rebels - not for vengeance, but by the values he had instilled in her. Coincidentally, the second oldest child in the family, her eldest brother Oleksandr, would join her cell not long after, alongside a steady stream of volunteers from her village, all inspired by Saw Gerrera's Partisans' assassination of Moff Quarsh Panaka.
