Here's some background info on Tac Darkej. I got some information from sites online such as the StarWars.com databanks. Feel free to ask for changes or clarifications.

Tac Darkej was born on the Clawdite homeworld of Zolan to poor parents in a segregated Clawdite ghetto. The native peoples unable to shapeshift, Zolanders, oppressed the Clawdite shapshifters, consitering them sinful and impure. Tac, with his unusually developed shapeshifting talent and uncanny ability to sense the emotions of others was often treated worse. His parents saved what money they could for his and his older brother's education, but they could never afford private education and their children suffered through public schooling. From his youth he studied Marabi martial arts, a Zolan martial tradition; the dicipline his martial learnings taught him assisting greatly with the focus and concentration required to practice the extremely painful art of shapeshifting.

While still young, Tac left Zolan illegally, diguised as a female human after talking and bribing his way into a cargo ship bound for Coruscant. Amidst the towering buildings of the urban world, Tac blended in, taking a job with the Cordon Group, a corporate mercenary organization who, while payed as security, worked more in corporate espionage. Tac, who's talents had become known to the head of the organization, was utelized extensively in social engineering projects and the infiltration of his company's employer's competition. Tac helped his employers become successful, and made some powerful friends in the corporate sectors of Coruscant.

When the Seperatists rose to power and the Clawdites saught the aid of Count Dooku to find independance from their Zolander oppressors, Tac's brother joined the fight against the republic. Tac sent him and his family money from Coruscant but preferred to remain seperated from the conflict- he consitered himself a pacifist, dispite his martial arts training, and would never willingly take a life despite the pragmatic ways of his people.

Tac is a shy, reserved person, unsure of himself socially and uncomfortable around people- often sensing their negative emotions even without trying. That is, until he stops looking like himself. When Tac is wearing another face, he is friendly, outgoing, and socially adept, a stark contrast from his default. He's spent so much time wearing another face, however, that he consiters that to be his default. Though the few times his heritage got out to others it was well recieved, Tac is afraid of being ostracised by others and hides his Clawdite nature from others religiously. Very raely has he ever come out to someone and admitted that he was somethig other than what he appeared to be, and he consiters it the final test of friendship for someone to accept him as he truely is.
Tac is fascinated by other races and cultures, and consiters hismelf a bit of a xenophile. He has no reservation about appearing male or female and quickly switches from one to the other when it would be more socially appropriate. He makes up personas easily and adopts them as personalities he can portray when socially appropriate, specializing in humans an duros. Many people who think they know him in fact only know one of his longstanding personas, and only his most trusted associates are let in on his secrets. He has been known to retire a persona when it was recieved poorly by someone, rather than face them later with the knowledge that they know.

Personas:

Gan Marrick, male human, a businessman from Coruscant who oversees shipping for a fictional tranport company. A smooth talker who is constantly looking for investors (so he might actually start that shipping business.) He has short black hair, brown eyes, and a tanned complexion.

Cora Aegis, a female human and an attractive socialite who frequents the entertainment district of Coruscant. She has been seen as the date of the head of the Cordon Group at corporate social functions and has entered and competed well in a few amature martial arts competitions. She sports long, wavy, red hair and emerald green eyes. (If you can look however you want, you might as well go for gorgeous.)

Kaldo Nanntu, a male duros small time computer programmer and businessman, working for a fictional company that creats droid AI's. He is more interested in the financial aspets of the business than in actually programming, however, and prefers to talk to organics over droids. His hairless skin is a bluish grey color, and his eyes are pale yellow, an overall average appearance for a duros.

Felia Sardo, a female human negotiator for the Cordon Group and other small businesses, often sent out to do negotiations on site when her employers are interested in aquiring something, be it property or intelligence. Felia is an attractive blonde woman with long hair bright blue eyes.

OK, everyone. Here's my initial submission. I'm not too clear on the world beyond what I recall from the movies, so if anyone can help on my history that would be appreciated. I wrote a little bit to get Tal on Taris and ionvolved in the battle, but I'm not sure when you might want to work me in. Again, this is my first SWD20 character, so please point out any mistakes I made.

Background:
Born on Coruscant, Tal served in the Republican Army for nearly twenty years. He eventually reached the rank of sergeant, but never showing the tactical sense or charisma needed to become an officer. Recently retired from active service, he has found that he misses the action that he complained so much about as a soldier and has been taking on any job he can find as a mercenary. Credit is tight, and he hasn’t been picky, doing everything form caravan duty on Tatooine to lightning-fast raids on Seperatist camps on Felucia. He prefers to work with the Republic rather than against it, but if the pay is good enough, he is happy to work with anybody.

With the Clone Wars in full swing, Tal hasn’t had trouble finding work. After finishing up a stint as a bodyguard on Taris, he was covertly approached by a disguised Republican recruiter and asked to serve once more, helping to plan the assault on a Seperatist communications array in the wilderness. After weeks of inactivity, Tal heard the tell-tale scream of landing craft and the whine of blasters firing and and followed the orders given to get back to Republican lines to collect his pay.

Kemrain, Looks good so far and I think I already have an idea of how to get you on Taris..... As far as VP goes, if I remember right, I decided to go with the standard DnD. Max first level and then average the rest. I am curious though how Tac was able to afford Marabi training if the family was barely able to afford schooling for the children. If you want to work in, say a kind of master/apprentice-slave nature in your history, like old Mien Chuan tradition, that would be fine. It would almost fit Tac's attitude in natural form. Just a thought, you don't have to go with it if you don't like it.

Bobitron, right off the bat I don't see any problems, but I might tweak your background a tiny bit to allow for the Separatist occupation of Taris and a location in which you were hiding. You probably won't appear until after this battle is complete, but that depends on the actions of the rest of the characters in the next round or three. I was thinking that you would be one of the observers that were secretly implanted on planet to keep an eye on the Separatists in general. You helped coordinate the assault itself with your superiors in the Republic. Once the attack began, your orders were to get back to the Republic lines, and I think I will put you in the process of that as you enter the game....

As part of next round's post, I will make posts to add the both of you in. Make sure to look over your character once or twice more, make any final adjustments and once you have posted them in the RG, I'll take that as a sign you are ready to go, give them a thorough once over and we'll go from there.

I hope you guys enjoy the game and I hope the rest of you are enjoying the game! I'm having fun writing it.

OK, I made some adjustments to the wording to make it fit better. I'm ready to post him in the RG if there are no mistakes. One thing I wouldn't mind is some dope names for my gear; are there 'brand name' weapons somebody could provide me with?

I for one am indeed enjoying the game, which is kind of odd considering that I haven't interacted with another PC yet and have done nothing more than circumnavigate the entire battlefield. I think I qualify for some kind of longest-distance-covered-by-a-PC award or something. I should get a frequent flyer card. The game is definitely better with regular postings by the players and yourself. Cheers to us!

The best source of brand names for equipment is (surprise!) the Arms & Equipment Guide. Looking over your list, some common and widely popular models for some of them can be found. For instance, the largest producer of blasters in the galaxy is the BlasTech corportation. Merr-Sonn, SoroSuub and Czerka are corporations that all make standard vibro weapons. Creshaldyne Industries makes several kinds of medium armors. Here are some appropriate names for some of the equipment you've chosen:

Creshaldyne Industries Padded Battle armor
BlasTech T-21 Light Repeating Blaster
BlasTech DL-18 Blaster Pistol
Merr-Sonn Treppus-2 Vibroblade
Gandorthral Atmospherics Roamer-5 Breath Mask
SoroSuub C1 Personal Comlink
GliS Emergency Medpac

 

[Bobitron]

I'll use every one of 'em. Thanks, Ambrus.

 

[Ambrus]

No problem. It's my pleasure.
