Background

Khareem used to be a successful miner on Pantora.

Risen through the ranks from the position of a lowly labourer, he eventually managed to wrest leadership of the mining operation from its aging boss.

As the new director, Khareem decided that asteroid strip mining wasn’t going to cut it anymore. Higher profits were required. And so he set his sights on the mineral resources of Orto Plutonia.

Of course, the native Talz were poorly receptive of this foreign invasion. Careful manoeuvering and tactful placating of the natives allowed his operation to flourish, cementing Khareem’s mining operation as a successful one.

Everything was set up for Khareem to become an influential chief of industry on Pantora, but dreams of reaching bigger, more impactful achievements lingered in the back of his mind. A chance encounter with the New Jedi Order allowed him to accomplish these.

Motivation

Wealth.

Khareem believes the New Jedi Order requires considerable monetary resources in order to achieve its goals. As such, he strives to secure funding at every possible opportunity for the Order. And if he were to become rich himself in the process, well... surely the Force willed it !

Morality

53.

Ambition / Greed.

Khareem has a vision of the New Jedi Order as this opulent organisation capable of rivaling galactic giants such as the Banking Clan and industrial megacorporations, propelled to such heights in part thanks to him.

Sadly, this sometimes leads to an overwhelming fixation on the bottom line, to the detriment of compassion and other, higher virtues.


Obligation : Responsibility. 10.
Khareem feels directly responsible for all the violence happening around Orto Plutonia's natural resources.

Description

Stout Pantoran of slightly below average height.

Other Notes

New Jedi Order backstory primer

____________________________________

-How did you discover your force sensitivity?

Khareem always had a knack for securing deals in his favour, even from a young age. What he thought to be natural skill and genius on his part was shown to be the influence of the Force after he tried to swindle a member of the New Jedi Order in passing on Pantora. The nature of his gifts was then explained to him, and an invitation to Yavin IV freely extended.

-Describe a moment where you fell prey to your moral weakness that still haunts you.

Although the native Talz were initially tolerant of Khareem’s operation on their home planet, they eventually decided he had overstayed his welcome. It began with mounted warriors keeping an eye on his workers from afar. Then they started harassing the miners. When they took to raiding outbound ore shipments, Khareem decided he'd had enough. He hired a band of mercenaries to kill the natives’ mounts and torch their chieftain’s hut.
No lives were lost, and operations could resume unhindered.
This was nothing short of an excellent business decision : you can't give these people an inch or they'll take a mile... right ? This bit of wisdom, once a cornerstone of Khareem's philosophy, has been shaken loose by the teachings of the Jedi. Ainlo, emboldened by Khareem's example, took things much further. He entered into armed skirmishes with the Talz and even posted death marks on all of their leaders and warriors. What was only ever intended to be a show of force has devolved into open warfare. Khareem never wanted to kill anyone, he just wanted to get rich ! Yet his actions can be directly traced to a catastrophic death toll.
Ever since Khareem's arrival at the Praxeum, late night arguments over comlink have become a fixture of the hallowed halls. Students and masters alike are now familiar with his repeated pleadings to end hostilities and pack up from Orto Plutonia. They seem to be falling on deaf ears...

-How did you come to join the NJO?

cf first question.

-Name one NPC your character has a strong connection with. This could be a family member, a friend, a work contact, or a bitter rival.

His cousin Ainlo, whom he left in charge of his mining operations on Orto Plutonia after leaving to join the New Jedi Order.
