Description[edit]
Rak is usually described as a well mannered and gentle, or atleast gentle for a Krath Assassin. Once engaged in combat or when he needs to extract information he becomes cold hearted and sadistic.
Mental Description[edit]
Rak quick to anger which is quite normal for his species though he will not draw his blade unless he intends to kill with it. However he has no qualms beating people to a bloody pulp if they argue with him.
He has a completely irrational fear of Ewoks and Jawas.
Rak is intensely fascinated by Twileks, Togruta, Natuolans and the like and holds a great deal of romantic interest towards the females of their species.
Rak exceptionally protective of women after the death of his first wife, a Twi’lek named Lyn Gella because of this he will never accept a contract on a woman and if he finds out that a contract has been taken he will intercept the bounty hunter or assassin. He is a quick witted methodical killer and will pursue his foes relentlessly.
Exudes confidence when he is in company, he has a powerful presence about him from being raised to be an elite member of society. He will always look someone in the eye when he talks to them, will not boast or threaten and always honours his word.
Physical Description[edit]
Rak stands at a massive 2.4 metres tall and weighs around 140Kg. He has jet black skin apart from some light white mottling on his tendrils and a white V from his eyes to his chin. He has no nose which is standard for his species and also gives him a slight natural resistance to gas attacks. He is considerably weaker than other members of his race but is still substantially stronger than a human. Because of his physical weakness he has trained himself to become faster using his speed rather than physical strength. He is exhausted quite easily if forced into physical exertion for an extended period because of a strange debilitating illness. He has a faint smokey smell. Walks tall and proud and has a swagger.
Allergies, Phobias and Addictions[edit]
Is incredibly allergic to all riding animals.
Has an irrational fear of Ewoks, Jawas and other small humanoids.
Is an alcoholic who always drinks corellian whiskey.
Languages[edit]
Due to his years of smuggling Rak has picked up numerous languages.
He can fluently speak Feeorin, Galactic Basic (with a coruscanti accent) and Twi'leki. Has a reasonably good grasp of Mandalorian but is not fluent.
He can understand Huttese and a few other languages commonly used by smugglers but not enough to be able to speak them just enough to get a vague idea of what they are talking about.
History[edit]
Before the Brotherhood[edit]
Rak was born to Rojak and Selm when they were approximately 200 years old. His parents were dignitaries for the Galactic Senate. They did not have much time to raise Rak and left him in the care of various house staff. Because he was the son of diplomats he did not go to school, but rather tutors came to his parents Coruscant Residence and taught him. Most of the house staff were Feeorin because Rak’s father Rojak did not trust non Feeorin to raise his son properly.
There were a few other Feeorin children in the house and over the first 50 years of his life he developed a close friendship with Flor and Nolm. They became his childhood friends. At Rak’s request Flor and Nolm were taught about etiquette with him and taught how to fit into the Upper Class society in Coruscant.
Rak was taught various skills from diplomacy, piloting skills, hand-to-hand combat and how to use blaster weapons as soon became exceptionally proficient. The rest of his childhood rather uneventful. Just before his 77th birthday his parents were kidnapped by political activists demanding that trade laws be loosened across the galaxy. Rak knew that this would never be happened and as such was not surprised when the activists executed his parents. Seeking the aid of Flor and Nolm, Rak decided to hunt down the activists. Using the vast wealth that his parents had left him he pursued numerous sources of information and finally tracked them to the under city in Coruscant. He went down with Flor and Nolm to confront them, finding that the activists had no remorse for killing his parents he drew a blaster, killing all five of them in the fire fight, however both his friends Flor and Nolm were killed in the fighting. Angry he stormed back to his parent’s residence and isolated himself for years, vowing to never become emotionally attached to anyone ever again. After nearly a decade of isolation Rak on a whim bought an estate on Corellia.
Corellia[edit]
Leave the estate on Coruscant under the care of the house staff and several bodyguards he hired, Rak moved to Corellia, where he started drinking heavily and after a short while he sunk into a world of alcoholism, finding himself in bar fights ever other night. This continued for a year until he met a beautiful young twi’lek named Lyn Gella. She managed to convince him to stop drinking and they became romantically involved. After a few years they planned to marry, and they went out for a night on the town. It was a fateful evening for Rak as one of the men who he had badly beaten in a bar fight years earlier had taken great offense and taken a contract out on his life. The assassin pulled a blaster and shot at him missing Rak and instead hit Lyn in the chest, killing her instantly, this sent Rak into a murderous rage and also revealed his latent force powers, he grabbed a chair and attacked the assassin beating him to death, all the while sending chairs and tables flying across the bar. Knowing that the authorities were looking for him he sold both his residences on Coruscant and Corellia and moved to Myrkr. Spending a further 20 or so years in exile he drank on and off, sometimes drinking for a week straight, othertimes, not drinking at all. Sometime during his 100th year he was struck down by a mystery illness, that no one on Myrkr could identify. For 50 years he searched for a cure and none could be found.
Bounty Hunter and Assassin[edit]
Deciding that he was going to die, he left his estate, determined to become a bounty hunter and assassin, thinking that he would be able to die honourably in combat. After years of travelling, and killing or capturing hundreds of marks, Rak took a leave of absence from the assassin and bounty hunter guilds to join the fight against the Rebel Alliance in support of the Galactic Empire, which had given him so much. Being refused entry to the Imperial Army and Stromtrooper Corps, Rak joined the First Sun Mobile Regiment, a Mercenary group that was contracted out the Galactic Empire.
The Empire and the First Sun Mobile Regiment[edit]
He was nearly 175 at this time, and served with honour, again using his considerable resources to track down various rebel strongholds eventually finding himself promoted to the rank of Colonel within the mercenary group. Continuing to fight with them through the Galactic Civil War he left when Moff Nile Owen killed an entire company.
Meeting Myn Donos[edit]
After leaving he was struck down again by his mystery illness and travelled the galaxy for several more years. In 19ABY he heard of a rumour that there may be a cure on the Planet Thor in the Phare system. Travelling there he met a young governor of the Directorate named Myn Donos, who helped him seek out the doctor he was looking for. Unfortunately the doctor was of no use to Rak, but it turned out that Myn was a member of the Dark Brotherhood and suggested that Rak join them to try and train his latent force abilities. This started a firm friendship between the two, which still goes strong till the present day.
The Dark Brotherhood[edit]
Rak rejoined the assassin’s guild taking on various missions for them over the years as he trained with the Dark Brotherhood studying the ways of the Krath order until he attained the rank of Jedi Hunter, finding that his particular skills lay in telekinesis and the ability to use the force to push and pull objects. Training furiously he developed his speed rather than his strength, realising that he would not be able maintain the same levels of endurance as the other Jedi because of his debilitating disease, he would have to rely on his speed and cunning to win fights.
Possessions[edit]
Rak has a huge amount of money saved in various banks on various worlds, his parents made millions of credits through their diplomatic duties and when they died he inherited them all. He also made vast amounts of money working as a bounty hunter and assassin over the years. He has a subcutaneous comlink inserted in his right hand.

Ship[edit]
