Abric generally wears a light hooded black robe over a long sleeve rashguard and shorts. He stands at a modest 5'10" and weighs 180 lbs. with a lean, athletic build. When necessary, Abric will wear a black mask that covers his entire face, save his eyes. Without the mask, Abric will wear his hood up and wrap the bottom half of his face.

[/list]
[b]Personality:[/b] Abric will generally have a blank look on his face in order to prevent people from "reading" him, but really is not as serious or stoic as his expression is. He prefers to keep everything that isn't business as playful as possible and very rarely gets angry. In turn, he does his best not to anger those around him and tries to defuse tense situations rather than immediately resort to his fighting prowess. When dealing with others, Abric takes on an "if you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you" attitude and tries to ignore those that give him trouble. 

However, all of this goes away when Abric decides it does; the niceties end when business begins. Abric takes his contracts and clients very seriously regardless of the job: information, assasination, anything. Once a job is accepted, Abric makes sure it gets done as fast and as efficiently as possible. Because of this, Abric considers every decision he makes with great discretion and never goes back on his choices. 

[b]Motivation:[/b] Abric has never cared for politics or the like for his entire life. He always kept himself focused on what was going on around him rather than the "huge picture" that was the galaxy. This is why when the Empire decided to welcome themselves in his everyday life, Abric found himself absolutely hating their presence. He slowly realized the strain the Empire had on Boonta as a planet along with its people. Throughout his days, Abric would witness injustices caused by the Empire and the negative effect it had on his small world.  

[b]Biography:[/b] Abric was the 2nd son of 5 children: 1 brother and 3 sisters. He was the first born on Boonta after his family was forced to relocate from their homeworld, Eshan. While his parents had a traditional Echani upbringing, they elected to adapt to the urban lifestyle of the Shining Gem. They lived in a slightly larger apartment complex - gained through means of intimidation - in the undercity. Rampant crime was part of everyday life and they learned to deal with it. His father spent most of his time at the podracing stadium where he found a practical use of his heightened reflexes and a hobby he loved, not to mention the money it brought in for his family. However, this meant that Abric didn't see much of him. In fact, it was mostly his older brother, Jord, who raised him. His mother spent majority of her time working as security, and though she'd never admit it, as a thug of sorts. 

	As stated before, Abric was surrounded by his siblings and was found himself aspiring to be much like his older brother. Jord had excelled in grappling when they lived in Eshan which meant Abric was exposed to grappling-based combat as he grew up. After numerous ass kickings from both his younger sisters and his older brother alike, Abric found himself lacking in his combat abilites. Obviously he could go toe-to-toe with any average person, but he preferred to compare himself to his siblings and his parents when they were home. His brother seemed to remain stronger than him despite Abric's efforts and his sisters were always faster. It was during his search for combat techniques that Abric came across an educational holopad of all things. This was the moment his interest in biology came to be.

	After soaking in all sorts of information on the human body, Abric began to incorporate it in his sparring sessions. He found that well placed strikes would tire out his training partners faster and absorbing a blow in his side rather than his liver made a world of difference. His knowledge became even more valuable when Jord put the first vibroshiv in his hands. His first job had been a simple one, and the shiv was really only for emergencies. Jord had been in contact with one of the Tionese gangs - though he wasn't part of one - and had recieved a decent sum of money to rough up an informant. Because they didn't want their identities to be found, they took to wearing masks when going out for business. Abric just thought the masks were cool as shit.  

	Jord had always had an unhealthy desire for money that most likely stemmed from the poor circumstances of their upbringing. At this point in his life, Jord and Abric were known as "enforcers" around the undercity. Though their loyalties lied only to the coin, they found themselves only accepting jobs that contained some sense of justice. Abric had an inkling that Jord accepted the shadier jobs by himself. All 3 of his sisters had already moved out so the two pretty much had the apartment to themselves save for the occasional parental visits. They were never really involved in each others lives. Jord's greed lead to an eventual falling out between him and his brother. He broke the news to Abric of an off world contract, and that was where Abric drew the line. Jord had left his life for good the same day. 

	Not satisfied with the undercity lifestyle, Abric took his savings and walked out. His reputation preceeded him wherever he moved and he found no problem finding work of similar nature. His affinity for stealth aided him as his contracts become more difficult and his targets became more powerful. It began as simple private detective cases and graduated into finding blackmail-worthy information. Then he recieved his first assassination contract. It paid far more than the informant assignments and the cause seemed just to him. Once the word came out that he was doing that, it wasn't long before Abric needed to start picking and choosing his assignments again. The ones he'd accept without consideration were ones directed towards the Imperials, which landed his masked persona a spot on the wanted list. 

	It was through this system that he met Rael Tyrn. It started as anonymous contracts for information and the occasional "disappearance" of a particular officer. Eventually, Rael had contacted him directly with a recruitment opportunity. While he wasn't too sure about the rebellion, Abric began to exclusively accept assignments from Rael and found his place in the budding rebellion.

I don't think an Echani background would be a secret he could keep, unless he has cut all ties (and buried them) between him and his parents who would likely be known in the underworld.

If that is the case, good to go. Accepted.
