[u][b]Player Name:[/b][/u] Jonesy [u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Chigan [u][b]Age:[/b][/u] Unknown [u][b]Appearance:[/b] [/u][url=http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/d/d3/Rodian_DICE.png/revision/latest?cb=20151106032702] Chigan's Appearance.[/url] Chigan stands at approximately 1.5 meters tall, with a thick build stereotypical of Rodian. One of his defining features is the massive scars across his back, extending up past his head. If asked about it, odds are the story will be that it was a trophy from when he single handedly took down an Acklay. [u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Male [u][b]Species:[/b][/u] Rodian [u][b]Force Sensitive Y/N:[/b][/u] No. [u][b]Equipment:[/b][/u] [b]Weapons[/b] DLT-20A Blaster Rifle - Medium / Long range blaster rifle. Primarily carried within his freighter. DL-21 Blaster Pistol Q2 hold-out blaster pistol - Inaccurate short range pistol hidden within his boot. 2x Vibroknuckles - Vibroblades that wrap around a user's fingers much like brass knuckles. Activated when a fist is made. [b]Transport/ Companions[/b] M-TD miniaturized translator droid - repulsorlift droid capable of speaking dozens of languages. VCX-100 light freighter 'Nightstalker' - Equipped with a VCX-series auxiliary starfighter. Armed with a rotating manned cannon on the top and a front facing set of dual blaster cannons. Jakoli - Rodian starship pilot, partner in crime to Chigan. Primarily focused on maintaining the ship and providing technical support to Chigan. Backpack: Holocommunicator, datapad, credit stash, identity documents belonging to a similar looking Rodian, 'Chibrak Jogan', forged to keep biometric signature, slicing tool. [u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] [b]Stealth:[/b] Lacking in combat skills, Chigan was forced to develop his skills in moving around undetected throughout hostile areas. Dodging patrols and keeping a low profile is his proficiency, and his relatively normal appearance allows him to get through some of the tightest security, despite his face being broadcast all over the holonet. [b]Suave:[/b] Years of barely getting through security checkpoints and making the most far-fetched lies seem believable had honed Chigan's charisma, to the point where he could face certain death with a confident grin and somehow lie his way out of it. He also seemed to be able to negotiate the best price. [b]Piloting[/b]: There was no such thing as a spice smuggler that couldn't fly a freighter like a pro, because they wound up dead their first blockade run. Essentially born in the cockpit of a spice freighter, Chigan boasted that he was one of the top freighter pilots in whatever system he happened to be in. Chigan's VCX-100 had been specifically modified to the suitability of him and his copilot, which has allowed him to escape the tight grip of Imperial frigates and star destroyers alike. [b]Strengths:[/b] [b]Long Range Combat:[/b] Years of work with his DLT-20A blaster rifle allowed him to hone his skills of hunting prey, whether it be taking down an Imperial Patrol investigating his ship or some local monster who is in between him and his score. While he is essentially useless up close and personal, Chigan is well versed in taking down targets in a calm manner when he has a considerable distance from his target and they can't necessarily shoot back. [b]Numero Uno:[/b] Typical of someone who was bounced around in slave deals, Chigan only cares about himself. Unlike the epic tales of Han Solo within the resistance, Chigan will not be returning to the battle in the brink of time. He'll be in hyperspace, most likely barreling to the nearest cantina to woo a pretty little twi'lek with his falsified stories of bravery while his friends die. Of course, that all changes if there's profit involved... [b]Weaknesses:[/b] [b]Open Combat[/b]: When faced with a situation that requires open combat, Chigan really doesn't have much of a chance. Without any armor, Chigan's primary method of lethality is sneaking up behind someone and eliminating them, preferably from a long distance. When it comes to open combat, Chigan often panics and finds the quickest way out of the hotzone. Once the blaster bolts stop whizzing by, he can focus and work on finding a solution, he may even consider returning fire at this point. [b]Melee[/b]: Without any real experience in melee combat, Chigan really has no chance when facing any sort of enemy in close range combat. Armed with a set of vibroknuckles, the best that Chigan can hope for is a lucky shot which would allow him to escape quickly. His weapon of choice is his holdout blaster, located in his boot. Provided he has a few seconds to take it out, the close range, high powered blaster can deliver a few deadly shots in a pinch. This isn't necessarily useful provided he's being attacked by more than one or two lightly armored enemies. [b]History:[/b] Chigan's history is essentially a group of conflicting stories, with his 'legend' changing every time he begins drinking at a cantina. The true story isn't nearly as exciting as he makes it out to be, though every recipient of the epic tale does have a small portion of the truth after he's done talking. Chigan was born into a group of spice smugglers, working specifically for the Nar Shadaa Hutt cartels. At the age of seventeen standard years, Chigan's indentured servitude contract was sold to a group of specifically notorious spice runners. Operating out of the ship, the 'Nightstalker', Chigan began his first spice run to the planet of Naboo. In the midst of the deal, Republic security services came crashing down on the freighter's crew and the buyers. In the ensuing firefight, Chigan and three other slaves were able to retreat to the ship as the armed traders fought for their life. The only one with piloting experience, Chigan was able to commandeer the ship and leave the planet, leaving the smugglers to their death as their only source of cover was barreling away at the speed of light. Fast forward several years, Chigan had built himself a reputation within the ranks of the Imeperial Navy for being nearly impossible to catch. With a reward well over a hundred thousand credits on his head after accidentally shooting an Imperial Admiral, the entirety of the crew that escaped Naboo with him had left, barring one exception. Jakoli was a pilot and starship mechanic that could rival the skills of Chigan, though his age made him severely lacking in combat or ground operations. When it came to making transactions, local mercenary teams were often hired for Chigan to compensate for his aging partner in crime. When news of the siege of Coruscant flooding the holonet, it became bad news for all smugglers and lowlives like Chigan. A militaristic dictatorship often presented a much larger challenge than a democracy in terms of blockades and how criminals were treated. Should Chigan plan to keep his business alive, he'd have to adapt to this new Galactic Empire or fight back. While billions of people either resisted or enlisted for personal belief or a lust for the maintenance of their desired society, Chigan's goal was to preserve his way of life. Pulling out of hyperspace by the planet Chandrila, Chigan began scanning the Holonet for a signal which would hopefully set him on the course of his first mission, assisting the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
