Timeline
Non-Player Characters
Andyr Vasch. A male human space pirate of the lowest kind. Tall and stocky with a dark complexion and even darker eyes. For years he preyed on the weak in the outer rim. His crew were known for taking anything and everything. He thought Reeva was no different. A young, vulnerable girl to be used and then tossed away. He raped her, left her and thought nothing of it. More recently his is thought to be working for the Zann Consortium. Although still very much in a pirate capacity. Most recently his dreams are haunted by visions of her. It's not clear he even knew or remembers her name. These dreams will drive him to find Reeva, but it is not clear whether he wants to kill her, re-live her rape or seek salvation to rid himself of these nightmares.
Angu Drombb. Vemmla's lieutenant. Little more than a thug himself, a heavy set and squat man with an angry red face and a shock of fluffy auburn hair. He tries to cultivate sophisticated airs and habitually wears an expensive suit, but he is naturally a vulgar man and finds the façade difficult to maintain. He leads a gang of twelve thugs (a mix of humans and Aqualish). His role for Vemmla is to collect as much spice as he can from locals. He has a wide remit to do what he needs to get as much as possible.
Captain Rel Harsol. He is the battlehardened veteran of the Clone Wars who attempted to smuggle Cratala and her crew out of the Republic and set up a black-market cybertech operation with Ropok, Reom's father. Now, he leads the meager band of survivors on Cholganna.
Carid. A Nediji Black Sun assassin who trained and mentored Cho through her formative years. A quiet and frugal man with an explosive temper and love of poetry. Never physically violent towards Cho or anyone around her, but his temper was nonetheless something to fear because you never quite knew when he'd stop at harsh words and when he'd decide to quietly deliver a lesson by taking away something precious. He thinks of himself as a kindly and just mentor, delivering the kind of lessons one needs to learn how to survive this harsh unkind galaxy. Either way, he'd make you feel like anything that went wrong was your fault for not doing well enough. Cho was a dream come true. A changeling who could utterly dismantle a victim's life, discredit them in the public eye, and then have them appear to suffer a tragic accident or take their own life. Everything he could possibly want as a tool in his stable. Cho was his protege, his "little bird". He rose to power within the Black Sun organisation, maybe on the back of some of Cho's most successful and daring assassinations. After Cho left his care he vied to be a Vigo but failed. For a time he fell out of favour. Recently rumours suggest he has clawed his way back up the ranks, maybe even to the heady heights of master of Assassins for Prince Xizor of House Sizhran – the Falleen leader of the Black Sun’s himself.
Ceoloe. Bartender of the Blasted Asteroid Cantina on The Wheel.
Cratala. Aloof and eccentric, the Arkanian is a master cybertech who blends her own genius with forgotten, Old Republic technology to create unsurpassed cybertech. When Chancellor Palpatine abducted her colleagues to serve as his personal medical staff, Cratala only narrowly escaped to the CIS and was later rescued once again by Capt. Harsol.
Dreks Verza. A human fixer on The Wheel who is known for keeping things to himself.
Eranas Charrel. A gorgeous female Abednedo skip tracer who has helped Reeva for several years. She gave her jobs when she needed the money and experience. She tracked down Zak's location. She continues to try and track down Reeva's mother even now that the trail has long gone cold. Eranas has a soft spot for Reeva and has never charged for any of her help. Reeva owes her many favours...
Gak'Fedaw. A Twi'lek male jedi youngling who escaped with Cho from the Jedi temple massacre of the younglings. Fast friends during their training. He was a partner in crime. Full of mischief, powerful in the force but lacked focus. They separated soon after their escape. From time to time Cho thinks of Gak what what might have come of him. Maybe the force still links them in some way.
Garik Mohebbi. A disreputable Mon-Calamari who is happy to trade ships to those with tarnished credentials.
Hymbel the Hand. A kind old man/magician that helped Lisanna after her mother died. An old school magician in a world that has real magic users wielding the force? His powers of manipulation and manual dexterity are so great that he has often been mistaken for a force user. Old now, Lisanna owes him a great debt that may need to be repaid in the future.
Iella Ryscandor. A female human captain of the ship that rescued the Rebels that lead to Dane's sisters death at the hands of an imperial patrol. Her part in that rescue made her a hero of the Rebellion. She eschewed a command role preferring to stay active. She is known to captain rebel ships on dangerous missions in all corners of the Empire.
IT-3PO. Originally owned by Capt. Harsol, the protocol droid is an expert negotiator who works for IsoTech while his master was missing.
Jaina Gantu. A female Balosar who runs drugs for Crimson Dawn. Zak's had several run ins with her crew as he has meeted out vigilante style justice for all the suffering their drugs have caused on countless systems. Zak keeps an ear out for this crew and their paths often cross.
Jeb. A kindly man that took Reeva in when she needed it the most. She owes him for his past kindness although he has never called upon her... He knows that Reeva is force sensitive - this places him in a position of trust and danger at the same time.
Karnak. A male Duros who dipped his toe into all sorts of low level criminal activities on Tatooine. Hong's partner in crime before they fell out (and before Hong replaced him with Dain). A nervous guy by nature, heavy user of all sorts of drugs (to calm his nerves) and libel to run than fight. He never shuts up. Karnak never forgave Hong when a betting scam they ran fell through and the wrong pod racer won the match, even after Hong assured him the engine was rigged. Karnak lost a lot of money that day and went into hiding from those he owned money to.
Kelarin. A middle aged male Twilek. Runs Vemmla’s office in Mos Elia. Has fallen for Lisana's charms.
Kor Lanoc. Lisana has a knack for picking up strays and helping them get on their feet. Kor runs a re-homing centre for abandoned children on Foerost. Although he tries not to impose on Lisana the home always needs help with money and keeping the local authorities on side. Lisana has i the past used her considerable charm to win over local government bureaucrats to keep the home open and provide funding. However bureaucrats and priorities change.
Losa Parry. A human female in her early 40s. She is the majordomo for Vemmla. She also maintains palace security. What is not very well known is that Losa has some very unusual sexual preferences. used to work for the ISB.
Mart Alleyn. Lisana's Aunt who runs a bar on Foerest. Lisana has blackmailed her in the past for help. Mother’s sister.
Mara Girdano. A great beauty, storyteller and writer of children's stories. Lisana's mother.
Merioon "Meri" Myrto. Zak's younger brother who he knew as Meri, although no one has called him that in 30 years. Now both physically (and life experience) older than Zak. He is a Lieutenant Colonel in the Imperial Intelligence. Zak knew Meri to be serious even as a young boy. Adorable when he was 5, he wanted to do well for his family and make them proud. He worked hard at school. Got his grades. Went into the academy following Zak's lead and the family business. He advanced through the years. He never blamed Zak for what he did, but never really understood it either. There is a job to be done and it needs to be done well. His excellent record offset the stain of Zak's betrayal, but he will never make command now, and maybe there is some resentment for that.
Nyn Kablo. A human female in her mid 40s. She is veteran of the clone wars. Battle scared and hard as nails. Although not a clone herself, she served the Jedi as a young trooper in the regular Galatic Republic army. She ended up working for Vemmla as Head of Security. A good paying job with some up sides and down sides. She failed to keep Cho and Reeva from freeing Zak and lost her job and freedom. Vemmla threw her into the arena. Somehow she managed to survive long enough for Vemmla to become bored with her and after an epic fight she cast her into the desert. She now acts as a protector for the small remote Twi’lek Ryll mining town of New Meen. She found steady work, kind people and no questions about her past. In return she protects them from the lawless elements on Ryloth. She is maybe too fond of a drink.
Quix Cata. Captain Harsol's Aqualish Head of Security.
Reina Galene. Reeva's mother. Definitely MIA, maybe KIA. She certainly left a lot of blood behind and not much else for even a skilled Skip Tracer. This can only mean that someone is actively hiding her. Maybe herself, maybe her captors. Given the mystery surrounding her disappearance there is a story there. All I can say is that there are other force wielders out there than Jedi and Sith....
Reom . Reom is a blue-skinned Twi’lek male who uses his supremely average, nondescript appearance to blend in perfectly with almost any starport crowd. Reom is president of IsoTech based on The Wheel. He is a talented smuggler, crafty entrepreneur, and superb negotiator. He has contacts throughout the galaxy, including powerful figures in the underworld. Reom handles IsoTech’s Outer Rim operations, particularly new acquisitions and allies.
Roza Dagmar. Technically still Zak's wife. Part of the powerful Dagmar family. Their influence goes back deep in the Republic's history and now continues unabated serving the Empire. Roza is now an Admiral in the Imperial Fleet. When Zak turned his back on the Empire and fled she (and her powerful family) did everything they could to distance themselves from him and his actions. People were threatened, records were destroyed or altered. Zak is dead to them. However he cost them a lot of money and if he should ever cross their paths again...
Shira. Reom's business-savvy sister. She handles IsoTech’s deals in the Mid Rim and Coreward. She bristles at the notion that Twi’lek females are little more than dancing girls and is quick to correct any misguided individuals on that point. She is blue-skinned, with gold and silver tattoo patterns on her arms and lekku.
Sivor. A lean and wiry geonosian with many battle scars. Arena Master for Vemmla for many years. Also acts as the master of arms for Vemmla. He keeps himself, equipment and living quarters spotless. He lives by his routines; eating, cleaning, sleeping, training and even fighting. His fighting style is based on a clear system that injects enough randomness to ensure he continues to win. Now that he trains he drives his students through the same routines and systems to perfection. A perfect death that is.
Tans. A fixer who hangs out in the cantina in Mos Elia, Tatooine. He has a western vibe to his dress and style. Has helped the PCs out a few times with information and help.
Tiernan Hellion. Dane's sister who was shot by an Imperial patrol while on a mission. Dane presumed she was dead, and without time to recover her body had to flee for his life. What if she wasn't dead? What if Dane was mistaken? What if she was captured by Imperials, brought back from the brink and then tortured for information about the Rebels they rescued. What if she blamed Dane for leaving her behind and for all the things that happened to her since. Wouldn't that be an interesting family reunion...
Trehees Botuum. Lisana's gangland fixer, drug addict, abusive, mother killing father. He harbours a deep resentment that she fled his control. A personal slight that has festered over the years. He has spent a considerable amount of money hunting Lisana down so he can teach her a long and very painful lesson. Lisana desperately wishes for Cho to kill him, looking not as herself but her mother.
Trex. A Trandoshan slaver who works for Vemmla. He maintains a small den in Mos Elia where he and other bounty hunters working for Vemmla hang out away from the stench on Vemmla’s palace.
Vemmla the Hutt. A female Hutt who Hong stole from and who froze Zak in carbonite. A minor crimelord on Tatooine always in the shadow of Jabba. Jabba would later freeze Han Solo in carbonite as part of an elaborate insult to Vemmla. She is vain, ambitious and spiteful. Like all Hutt's she makes revenge a racial pastime. Hong's theft is a personal slight on her standing amongst the Hutt's and is holding her back from advancing. Zak slighted her during a deal. She never forgave him. He hated the relationship and reliance on her anyway. So he walked away. Little did he know that she would take revenge so far. Zak's rescue and lack of punishment for his crimes against Vemmla put him firmly in her sights. Maybe the only thing truly holding her back is the dozen or so other revenges she is pursuing at the same time...
Waroon Dak. An infochant on the Wheel.
Zef Garr. A besalisk who runs Vemmla's Great Land Race team. Many scars from old racing wounds.
