Growing up on Ryloth was never easy, but Dex at least had his parents. His father worked hard, and his mother was very nurturing. She always told him stories of heroes off world. Some were Rebels, standing up to the Empire. Others with the heroic Soldiers dying in battle. But his favorite stories were always the ones with the cocky smugglers with a heart of gold. Those that smuggled medicine, weapons, and other supplies to those less fortunate that wanted only for their freedom, or wanted a chance to succeed where others would keep them down.

When he came of age, Dex hopped ship from Ryloth and ended up on Nar Shadaa, a place he'd dreamed of seeing from all the stories his mother had told. As most do, he started off small. Picking the pockets or grifting rich casino goers, slowly moving up in scale. He never stole from those less fortunate, rather giving to them as he was able to help bridge the gap.

He eventually fell in with a Human Smuggler named Tieran Stormchaser. The woman was older, wiser, and took him under her wing. She taught him the finer art of lock picking, taught him how to choose his targets, how to shoot a blaster, and eventually even taught him how to finally pilot a ship of his own. She imparted into him a type of moral compass. At least, moral for a Smuggler. It helped that she was a freedom fighter herself, often leading raids into Slaver compounds and prisons to free those that were wrongfully taken.

He began to pick up smuggling jobs as he could, careful to vet them. Delivering Slaves was a no-go for him, given his experience on Ryloth. He believed everyone had a right to be free. Where they went from there, well, that was their choice. If he was offered a job to deliver people, he would turn it down, and often leak the information to those that would do something about it.

His favorite type of 'contraband' was delivering medicine and food to people in need of it without Imperial tariffs. Though including a blaster rifle or 40 along with the food didn't exactly bother him. Those that were free needed to defend themselves, after all. Spice happened, but it wasn't his preference. Addiction was another type of slavery, to him at least, but that was a moral someone could pay him to forget about if the Credstick was heavy enough.

Glory! He wants to be like those in the stories he grew up hearing. Heroic scoundrels that stuck it to authority, helped those in need, and made a pretty penny doing so! He doesn't need to be rich, but he DOES need to be known.

Obligation A - Pissed off Slaver; Tricked Dex into smuggling people and Dex simply armed them and set them free. Now has a bounty on his head. [10]

Obligation B - Responsibility. He feels he owes Tieran Stormchaser, a Smuggler on Nar Shadaa, a great debt for teaching him what he knows about Smuggling. He even wields a blaster she gave him before he left Nar Shadaa.[10]
