•DO YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION OR IDEAS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE?

Currently in concept development but to give a brief outline.

An older, Human Bounty Hunter, with a never enough credits, an eye for a good bounty, the girls and the good stuff and a few other "human" weaknesses.

He is ambivalent towards power and politics, having been round the block more times he cares to remember. More than a little jaded but covers this well with a dry sense of humour and the fact he takes nothing too seriously. Should most likely be dead however more through luck than any skill or good judgement he seems to have survived. Nikk is very laid back guy and likes to have lots of fun. The only reason he's still working is to fund his daughter through a top training Academy on Coruscant, as the last thing he wants is his daughter having to work cantina's, some factory, or running spice, or as some meat shield in a military unit (and maybe cos he actualy can't see himself doing anything else though he wouldn't admit it).

Nikk grew up as a Cantina kid on Ord Mantell, his father was never around as he was some second rate smuggler always looking for the bigger better deal. He never really knew a mother figure but the girls in the cantina always looked after and made a fuss of him and clipped him round the ear for sneaking peaks into their dressing room and when he got out of line when he was a kid. So his early year were spent running errands for the Cantina, the girls and its customers. His later teen years he worked behind the bar and later on the security. His father hoped his son would follow him into the business but after a couple of runs, and a life looking at the two bit losers his old man hung out with, Nick twigged that sneaking about lying, cheating, hiding and running was too much like hard work and not the way he wanted to waste his life. He would much rather keep his life simple so inspired by the cooler than ice bounty hunters that sometimes frequented the club in their awesome armours and packing serious firepower, he toughened up in the scrapyards of the city and bouncing doors. That's what he was going to be, and that's what he became. A Bounty Hunter, the guy with the girls, the ship, the look and the cred's. At 20 he got into a gladiator training school and ended up in the arena contests on Genosis. After surviving a couple of seasons and buying his way off the planet he hooked up with a fading hunter who remembered him from the Cantina and agreed to teach him the ropes. That all seems a long while ago. Since then he's worked for the Black Suns, The Exchange, the Hutt Cartell's the Consortium's and many different organisations as well as Freelancing. Right now he's a freebooter with affiliations to the mysterious Black Mantis Syndicate, a member of The Kajidic
