Fuza Macoy - Background

Quotes

There is no problem without a resolution and bloodshed is rarely a necessity.

That? No, that's only Kolto transports for the Republic Guard.

Good evening, M'am, you look like you could use some company.

That? No, that's only Cortosis transports for the Sith troopers.

(34 - 26 BTC) Hutt Slave

Fuza Macoy was born on Nal Hutta. Born into slavery. There was a compound on Hutta that bred slaves. Slaves of all species. True indentured service, dominating generations of a lineage. The Hutts that operated the Compound were elated when Fuza was born. A rare Lethan Twi'lek meant large yields for the Compound's income. Would have been more so if he were a female, but the Hutts didn't complain. He was raised at the Compound, doing menial manual labor for the Hutts for several years. Never reaching his potential but utilizing whatever knowledge he could scrounge up.

When he turned eight, a rather fetching male Twi'lek named Toy'l Lan'dri came to the Compound looking for a young slave. When he found Fuza Macoy he thought Fuza was exactly what he was looking for. Toy'l took Fuza back to his ravishing spaceship, for which Fuza had already had a predilection. And Fuza and his new owner took to the sky, leaving Nal Hutta in their wake.

(26 – 15 BTC) The New Frontier

Fuza quickly learned his and Toy'l's relationship was not the average relationship between a slave and his master. The relationship he had always heard of and learned to fear, with his fellow Hutt breeds. The relationship was akin to that of apprentice and mentor. Father and son.

Before knowing the story Fuza Macoy, one must first know the man who raised him. Toy'l Lan'dri was born on Ryloth, the homeworld of the Twi'leks. Like any world, Ryloth had individuals of every caste, be it opulent, impoverished or something in between. Toy'l was born among the opulent, the very, very wealthy. Lan'dri was his mother's name, he didn't like the fame that his father's name father's name brought him. His father was Lu'us Arakyd, heir to the Arakyd fortune, holding controlling interest in the company and, for a time, the position as president of the enterprise. A few months after Toy'l was born in 3732 BBY, Lu'us was assassinated in an attempt to offset the success of the company when there was no suitable heir in the Arakyd line. One would assume that upon Lu'us's death Toy'l and his mother would come upon fortunes but, although being a legitimate offspring of the Arakyd lineage, Toy'l's mother, Lyza Lan'dri, was a woman of ill repute whom Lu'us loved, but never trusted. Toy'l wouldn't come upon his inheritance until he was sixteen, mature enough to handle his own funds. This left Lyza in a tough situation as a single mother but, loving her son and respecting his reputation, she didn't take to dancing or any less decent profession but rather used the all of the skills that she was raised to know--persuasion, piloting, computer use, stealth, repair, security and demolitions. She eventually bestowed these abilities to her son Toy'l, and, by the time Toy'l reached sixteen years of age they welcomed their fortune but didn't necessarily need it.



Toy'l continued to work around the galaxy, in various different facets, through his mother's death in 3691. Toy'l had successful in every plane of existence in the galaxy of the Old Republic Era, he had male and female companions of every species, every class, he was wealthy and intelligent enough to have relationships with nobles--without having to abide by noblesse oblige--and his profession, stealing and smuggling and giving his profit to those in need gave him friendships and more intimate affairs among those of lower classes. Toy'l Lan'dri had a great life, but he discovered one year that he was sterile and therefore would never have children of his own. And, for whatever reason, he wanted someone to carry on after him so, around 3690 BBY, he began looking for a son.

He never looked for one of the privileged children fostered through as normal choices among the noble. He went to those whose fortunes were destined for bleak existences. He met a number of children that deserved his fortune and he sent them Ryloth, Coruscant and Serenno and gave them contacts and resources to begin new lives. But it wasn't until he went to Vorta's compound on Nal Hutta that he found his son. His name then was Vasir Dwon, a rare Lethan Twi'lek but that wasn't what mattered to Toy'l, the boy was highly intelligent, kind and attractive for his age and although he was a completely different color than Toy'l, Toy'l could see himself in adventurous young boy.

Upon reaching Toy'l Lan'dri's ship, The Incandescent Pearl, named for Toy'l's alabaster skin, Toy'l gave Vasir the choice of choosing another name to begin his new life. After much deliberation, uncharacteristic in a man so young, Vasir made his first name to 'Fuza' and his last name 'Macoy'. And so started the rest of their lives. Similar to his own upbringing, Toy'l taught Fuza everything that his mother had taught him. But Fuza came with another aspiration, an inescapable, undeniable hunger for knowledge. So as they went about their business of funneling funds from the prosperous to the poor, Fuza too funneled knowledge from every source into his near-limitless suppository.

Toy'l and Fuza were well known enough for the antics they committed as a team, but it wasn't until Toy'l retired in 3672 BBY that Fuza truly attained fame. 'Fuze' gained renown leading the ''The Run of Coruscant'', bringing supplies to the poor and wealthy in need when the Coruscant skies were afflicted by the ''Blockade of '71''; as close to a famine as Coruscant had ever faced.

(15 BTC - Present) Affluence
For the last fifteen years Fuza has been wealthy in every sense; having access to an almost infinite supply of funds, plenty of great friendships with plenty of great friends, intimacies with a multitude of women of every species. Fuze doesn't spend all of his time on these pleasantries, although he could, the smuggler and thief also spends his time accumulating resources to give to those in need, as well as some necessary equipment for himself.

Although his most famous role is that of a smuggler, Fuza Macoy also enjoys to branch out and offer his services as a con artist and a thief always targeting those with plenty to lose, a freelance merchant playing a part in the more legitimate aspects of the galactic economy, a spy but not necessarily always working for the Republic for the Republic is not always right, an escort when necessary with males or females and a scholar offering his highly educated opinion on many matters in the Galaxy although there rarely is any monetary gain.

During these years, Fuze accrued a number of great stories to tell, but the greatest stories are still to come...

Common Conception

His size and his hue, coupled with his urbane vogue, compel women and men alike to melt in adoration of this distinctive character. Like his adoptive father, Fuza is famous among certain circles, the noblemen for his place in the Arakyd line and his social standing, criminals and vagabonds know him for his exploits and his support of those less fortunate and scholars know him from the similar circles that they travel in. He may not be intimidating or an ace with a blaster, but Fuze has a reputation of being a commanding personality and rarely has he ever been bested in a battle of the minds. His wit is sharp, but he's not an elitist. He comes from rags and often works with scoundrels so he empathizes with those below him in the social structure. In the skies, he is infamous among fighter pilots, smugglers and merchant ships.

Personality

Fuze's personality is vivacious and vigorous. He loves interacting with people, people of any species. Because he often makes a living forming relationships he's quick to do so. He loves hearing and telling stories. In solving problems Fuza would most easily be described as a pacifist. But he isn't completely a pacifist, he isn't afraid of a gun fight if there was no other alternative. Fuza isn't amazing at any instrument but his ability to play a number of songs on the Fizzz, the Fanfar and the Nalargon. Fuze loves a game of Dejarik, Sabacc or Pazaak. His prowess as a pilot carries over to more competitive fields; Fuza has made a name for himself in the swoop scene with his custom modified Arakyd swoop racer. Fuza is truly at home in a cantina or a cockpit. Above all, Fuza strives to be sociable and popular, never making an enemy of anyone and always approaching social situations from a personable position.

Languages

Fuza Macoy is known for his intelligence and much of that is devoted to learning as many languages as he can. He learns these languages because of his extreme interest in anthropology and the cultures of every known species in the galaxy.

• Galactic Basic:

Like most of the galaxy, Basic is Fuze's primary language. He almost always uses it when first meeting someone, but once he learns what languages someone else can use, he dabbles into his other selections.

• Bocce:

One of the primary languages necessary in Fuza's line of work. Fuze uses this fallacious dialect to communicate with his fellow space-faring smugglers and merchants.

• Twi'leki:

Unlike many Twi'lek, Fuza wasn't taught to speak Twi'leki from birth, but rather Galactic Basic. But Fuza is, nonetheless, fluent in Twi'leki so that he doesn't inspire animosity in his Twi'lek kin.

• Huttese:

Growing up on Nal Hutta, under the command of a Hutt, it was obligatory that Fuze learn to comprehend Huttese. It now often helps Fuza in communicating with his employers, who are often Hutt entrepreneurs.

• Mando'a:

Despite Mando'a's lack of depth and diction, Fuze uses the language to gain favor from people whom normally he would get none from. Mandalorians created a culture completely different from Fuze's life, and so he has a great interest in Mandalorian history and presence.

• Togruti:

One of the languages Fuza more commonly used, speaking to his Togruta lovers and often clients in their native language always seems to work well for him.

• Shyriiwook:

Fuza understands Shyriiwook and its variants, Xaczik and Thykarann, as well as any language but he doesn't dare try to orate the language. He feels that it would lower himself to fumble around in the pronunciation.

• Binary:

Much like Shyriiwook, Fuze doesn't bother speaking in binary, but is easily able to have a conversation with a droid without translation protocols.

• Ithorese:

Fuza holds great respect for the Ithorians and thought it appropriate to learn their language, culture and history.

• Sith:

Fuza often gains respect from his Sith employers when he speaks the Sith language to them. Even though most Sith aren't capable of speaking or understanding the language they admire the fact that he is interested enough to learn it.

• Gamorrese:

Fuze doesn't know every Gamorrese word. But honestly, how many do they use?

• Durese:

Traveling in space, Fuza, like many others, encounters a multitude of Duros space-farers, therefore, this language is often a necessity for Fuza to understand and speak.

• Dosh:

The language of Trandoshans, Fuze rarely uses it. He learned when he was young and took to hiding on Trandosha, where he met a number of efficient soldiers for hire.

• Nautila:

Certainly not one of his more commonly used languages, Fuza uses Nautila to talk to his Nautolan companions and co-workers.

• Feeorin:

Another language that Fuze rarely gets to use, but nonetheless respects its use and the Feeorin people, who often do not speak basic.

• Sullustese:

The Sullustans may not the being most aesthetically pleasing species, but Fuza is always happy to converse with his Sullustan companions and the members of ports speaking Sullustese exclusive in this fun language.

• Bith:

Most commonly observed as musicians, when they weren't caught playing a jizz the Bith did tend to communicate and, being a musician himself, Fuze always enjoyed a conversation with one of these creative geniuses.

• Quarren Language:

The language of the Quarren people, although Fuza doesn't personally like most Quarren, he occasionally is forced to work with them and they rarely speak Basic so, in his free time, Fuza decided to learn their language.

• Advb:

Fuza almost never has to speak to the Advozse in their native language so his rudimentary understanding of the language has been enough so far.

Abilities

Fuza 'Fuze' Macoy has no special ability to speak of. At least in the common sense of the word, of an eccentric battle advantage, in battle, Fuze is a rather mundane adversary. But outside of battle he is a force to reckoned with. His skill of preparation for a battle, with his prowess in the fields of computer use, demolitions, repair and security, give Fuza a significant and often impressive advantage in battle. Fuze also possesses a silver tongue, his astonishing persuasiveness, rivaled only by a force adept's domination of minds, can convince members of any species or class, in the social hierarchy of the galaxy, to do whatever Fuza asks of them.

Equipment

Fuze always has an abundance of mines, computer spikes and repair parts.

GSI-15B Modified Disruptor Pistols

The new blaster from Galactic Solutions Industries, the finest disruptor pistols in the galaxy. These pistols were created in 3,662 BBY and Fuza acquired them later that year in a heist of Galactic Solutions Industries Headquarters. They're not his go-to solution to problems but when it's necessary these blasters can hold their own.

Upgraded Baragwin Shadow Armor

A specialty of the Baragwin, this modifiable suit has advanced adaptive camouflage technology that, when combined with a stealth generator, allows it to blend in nearly seamlessly with the background when viewed from any direction. It is generally only sold to respected governments, but a number have found their way into more disreputable distribution channels. Fuze made a living for over a year, eliciting Baragwin technology from legitimate governments and into the illegitimate. No one would notice if one or two items went missing.

Kubaz Scoundrel Gloves

The Kubaz species is most renown for their interest in culture, but they also have a penchant for less refined matters, such as smuggling and espionage. As they are not capable of interstellar travel themselves, their items are very rare finds. At one time smuggling Kubaz equipment, Fuze acquired these gloves and they're the best that he could find ever since. Offers Fuza a boost to his dexterity and helps with his computer use and security skills.

GSI Prototype Agent Interface

A visor with an integrated computer and electronics analysis system, the Prototype Agent Interface uses a superior artificial intelligence routine to assist Fuza in all manner of covert and computer-oriented tasks. It can also be used to connect to a secure computer via physical cables, enabling the AI to act on its own to breach that system. This prototype technology was never widely distributed, but Fuze acquired them in that same 3,662 BBY heist.

Baragwin Stealth Unit

Similar in concept to the Baragwin Shadow Armor, the Baragwin Stealth Unit is a quantum leap in advancement over standard stealth units. It provides much greater camouflage, as well as enhancing the mobility and situational awareness of Fuza Macoy to potential threats. In those same Baragwin equipment runs Fuza scored this top of the line stealth generator belt.

Cybernetic Implants

Fuza has purchased a number of implants with the fortune he has accrued to enhance his system's efficacy.

• Advance Alacrity Inlay:

The Advance Alacrity Inlay enhances Fuza's nervous system, signficantly improving reaction times. Also adds a dexterous enhancement to his system.

• Mental Boost D-Package:

D-Package implants are larger and more intrusive than other types. They tend to have more impressive effects, but can only be used by very healthy individuals. Improves the flow of thought patterns in Fuze's mind. Also assists Fuze's communication abilties.

• Advanced Pheromone Package:

This implant allows Fuza to subtly secrete synthetic pheromones that generally stimulate a pleasant behavior response in a wide range of species.

• Skills D-Package:

Like Fuze's Mental Boost D-Package this implant requires Fuze to be as healthy as physically possible. This implant increases all of Fuze's skills.
