Name: Alexander Atreides Race: Corellian Gender: Male Age: 35 Appearance: [img]http://orig01.deviantart.net/2afa/f/2011/107/d/c/terran_legion_engineer_by_parkhurst-d3e7ltz.jpg[/img] Skills: Mechanical Repair Droid Maintenance Electronic Slicing Scavenging Marksmanship Equipment: A280 Blaster Rifle DL-18 Blaster Pistol Fusion Cutter Custom Hammer Various other tools and spare parts kept in a rucksack Bio: Born on Corellia itself, Atreides was subject to the many and various suspicions and running gags that faced the group throughout the universe. Growing up on Corellia did little to shelter him from such things, but like his people, he was resilient and laughed in the face of such things. Both his parents were classic examples of the rebellious nature of the Corellian people, always fighting against anyone who tried to force their small family into a role or position that held no interest to the family. So when the Corellian Resistance formed to stand against the Empire, the entire family, 10 year old Alexander included, were amongst the first waves to join and begin plotting against the Empire. His parents would soon die in an early raid against the Resistance movement, but the young boy survived and kept running messages when they could not be trusted to even encrypted signals, as it was obvious the Empire was cracking their codes as early Resistance holdings were raided routinely. But the Resistance kept growing stronger on Corellia, and Alexander grew up alongside of the rebels as he honed the trade his parents taught him. All things mechanical and electronic were his playthings, whether building new weapons and tools for agents to use or sabotaging Imperial holdings and resources. Along the way he was trained in using blasters, and inherited his father's A280 and stole a DL-18 as a backup. Armed as such, and with his technical prowess, he often performed as the specialist of hit and run attacks on Imperial holdings on Corellia, even as young as he was during some of the time. He took to the thrill of the fighting and resistance efforts against the Empire, making a name for himself as a daring and skilled technician, handy enough with blasters to keep his own hide alive so he wouldn't need escorted. So by the time the Corellian Resistance was merged with the Alliance to Restore the Republic, it was only natural for the Corellian to join up and keep fighting on other planets and systems. Atreides typically rated for better than grunt work, often times acting as part of cells on Imperial or otherwise Rebel unfriendly worlds, acting as a technical expert for whatever was deemed necessary for operations on the planet they were sent to. From causing failures in life support systems in Imperial barracks on asteroids, to setting up ambushes on jungle worlds, the technician gained a large wealth of experience throughout his fighting from the dawn of the Alliance. Even working alongside force sensitives on occasion and getting the usual 'may the force be with you' spiel, he never bought too heavily into the whole Foce thing. Nothing skill couldn't solve that the force tried to do otherwise. Close calls aplenty, both before and after the formation of the Alliance, it was only natural that Atreides would get picked up for the mission to Coruscant, having a technical expert would no doubt prove vital in their operations. Other: Atreides is fond of throwing together parts on the fly to make new weapons and tools to solve problems he, or anyone he is working alongside, might run into at any given time.
