[b][color=red]Personal Style:[/color][/b] If “Eat My Ass” wasn’t an indicator already, Shira’s a bit of a punk. If biker gangs existed in the galaxy, Shira would be the prototypical space biker gang member. She’s rebellious (ironically), and her appearance often reflects that. She wears a lot of leather, and her hair color and style are both prone to change at any given moment.

[b][color=red]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Not happening. [b][color=red]Personality:[/color][/b] Shira Jen is 100% self-serving; there is absolutely nobody in the galaxy she cares for more than herself. She prefers to work alone, as she finds that having people around brings her down and distracts her. If you got shot and she was your only hope for survival, you might as well dig yourself a grave rather than waste time asking for her help. She’s ruthless, a result of her upbringing on Nar Shaddaa. Shira has no qualms killing if she has to, no matter the target or the circumstances. However, she’s not exactly an exceptional assassin, so it isn’t really a situation she finds herself in too often. Rather, much of her killing is does from her fighter, her true love. Because nothing matters to Shira more than flying. Quite honestly, you could take everything away from her but a ship and she’d be happy. Her deal with the Empire? A bonus. The cherry on top. She’ll gladly work for them and get to live semi-freely on a Star Destroyer if it means she gets to fly. And hey, sometimes shit gets to die when she flies. A second cherry. [b][color=red]Habits:[/color][/b] [list][*]Talking to herself - they have to remind her to turn her radio off when she flies. She shuts up when she’s sneaking around, though.

Not that she’d consider working for anyone else, to be quite honest; Shira enjoys working for the Empire. Nobody else in the galaxy can give her the flying time or the resources that they can. Even if she wasn’t being essentially blackmailed into flying for the Empire, she’d probably sign up to join them anyways. [b][color=red]History:[/color][/b] When you’re born on Nar Shaddaa to two poor shipyard workers, you get two choices: be poor with your parents and be a fucking shipyard worker, or run away and join the life of crime. Shira took the smart road: crime. Her early teenage years were marked by a series of high-profile thieveries of some very expensive ships, which she would then sell on the black market to the highest bidder. It was dangerous, but no one on the planet could break in, steal a ship, and fly it out in one piece as well as Shira Jen, even at the young age of 14. After five years of increasingly high profile robberies, she caught attention from the wrong places - or the right ones, if you’re Shira. She was approached by a Hutt who needed some help with an Imperial problem: they were consistently raiding his shipyard and taking his cargo for themselves, and he wanted it back. Shira took the job, or jobs; they ranged from intercepting the Empire’s interception of the Hutt’s cargo and preventing it from being stolen, or go steal back whatever it was they managed to steal. Shira was quite successful, managing to properly piss off the Empire enough to get them to go after her. But finding one 19-year-old on Nar Shaddaa was no easy task, even for the Empire. So they went to the source: the Hutt. Finding a Hutt is a lot easier, especially when you’re already raiding his black market cargo. They used him to contact Shira, at which point they gave her an offer she couldn’t refuse: work for the Empire, and not only would they not go after her, but they’d pay her more than whatever that Hutt was cheaping her out for. However, Shira recognized that she still had the advantage: even though the Imperials found the Hutt, they still couldn’t find her. So she negotiated a couple key points: she’d fly for the Empire, but she wasn’t being conscripted into their army or navy. Fuck that. She’d be closer to a mercenary if anything. That, and they’d let her modify her fighter however she wanted. She knew about how strict Empire regs were about their fighters, and she knew she could make her fighter [i]so much better.[/i] On both points, they agreed. Shira joined the Empire, taking on the callsign SJ-470: the 4 for the number of raids she stopped on Nar Shaddaa, the 7 for the number of times she successfully infiltrated an Imperial base and got out alive, and the 0 for the amount of times she got caught. Shira quickly became a top TIE pilot in the Imperial Navy. She was one of the few to take part in the Battle of Yavin, survive, and make it back to Imperial ground without being captured by the Rebels, and nobody could match her kill count save a handful of pilots. It was also only a matter of time before the Empire recognized that Shira had a talent for sneaking into places and taking things; her adventures into restricted access rooms were proof enough of that. Her role was shifted so that not only would she be flying TIE fighters for the Empire, she’d be occasionally sneaking into Rebel bases and doing some dirty work. Her missions have ranged from stealing intel to assassinating a Rebel leader. She’s since been sent to the Vindicator following the defeat at Endor, her services to be available to the Imperials however they see fit. She comes with a lot of caveats - more than the Imperials are typically able to withstand - but her abilities more than make up for it.

[hr] ☯ [color=f26522][b]Morgbra Bonwoo[/b][/color] ☯ [i]"Uhh... hell of a dancer, I guess."[/i] Shira stays away from Morgbra and he stays away from her, just the way Shira likes it. The two have only one thing in common, and that's dancing, so unless you catch the two of them on one of those weird days when they're dancing round each other, you'll hardly ever see Shira and Morgbra in the same room together. [hr] §[sub]⚜[/sub] [color=A9A9A9][b]Kyatrah Selinema[/b][/color] [sub]⚜[/sub]§ [i]"Who the fuck put a pole up her ass, anyways?"[/i] The pillar of Imperial discipline and pretentiousness, Kyla is everything Shira cannot stand about the Empire. Pulling triggers only when ordered to and demanding underserved respect from people just as skilled and ruthless as yourself doesn't make you any better than the next killer in line, it just makes you an uptight prick. Kyla and Shira go after each other frequently, often causing quite the scene when they do. The only thing keeping the two from killing each other is their small amount of mutual respect regarding the other's skills in combat; otherwise, one of them would have killed the other the moment they met. [hr] ☯☮(?) [color=ff99ff][b]Jaina Sarbye[/b][/color] (?)☮☯ [i]"WE'RE NOT SISTERS."[/i] Shira made the mistake of being slightly less ruthless towards Jaina once, and ever since, she can't seem to be rid of her. Not that she [i]really[/i] minds; Jaina's the right amount of fucking insane and sadistic for Shira to be intrigued. Shira will never admit that they're friends, not in a million years. But they're somewhere close, and Shira can't help but find something intriguing about the bubbly psychopath. [hr] ⚜☮ [color=a187be][b]Jesmand Cartchri[/b][/color] ☮⚜ [i]"I wanna fuckin' be her. Don't tell anyone I said that, or I'll kill you."[/i] Repeatedly being told that she's like a younger, colder, and more selfish version of a certain Commodore Cartchri naturally piqued Shira's interest. She was surprised to discover that the Commodore shared that interest, and that both of them had put in requests to have Shira moved onto the Vindicator. Despite their differences, the two actually get along qute well. Though she's still not sure why, her new captain has Shira's interest, attention, and respect. It's one thing to have Shira giving one of those things to a person. All three? A blasted miracle.

It was one of two jobs Shira botched as a kid: she had made it all the way to the fucking navicomputer before a young Senator Sorovia caught her at point blank range with a blaster pistol. The two fought briefly before Shira managed to escape, after knocking out the Senator with an unexpected blow to the face. Shira remembers the encounter fondly, hoping that someday she'll get to meet with the Senator face to face once more.
