Background

Ryah comes from a family of force sensitive users. The only one not attuned to the force, he left his family to go into the Corellian Military. Before leaving, he made sure that his sister kept their parents safe since all force users were now in hiding after order 66. His brother, a Jedi Knight, in exile with his now current wife, running from the Empire as well. His sister in law wanted for running and offering her assistance to the newly formed Rebel Alliance. Knowing now his family safe for now.
After graduating he seeked a little bit of adventure that brought him into the presence of Skinny. A Hutt that had base of operations on Tatooine and NalShuda. Picking up a security detail, earning a job with Gohna, Skinny's head man for jobs the Hutt needed complete. Ryah becomes one of Gohna's best and most trusted men. Second in command of the team and very trusted of Skinny.
Then came the one job to changed everything. A large shipment of credits were to be transported to Skinny and Ryah was in charge of the delivery. After landing in NalShuda, the cargo goes missing and the credits gone, Ryah is framed for it by Gohna. Skinny threatens to find Ryah's family and kill them offering their bodies as rewards to the Empire, however he gives Ryah a chance to find Gohna and prove his innocence within a given time frame before the Hutt sends out his bounty hunters for Ryah's head. As well as murdering his parents.
Drinking one night, he comes across some information that a job may be coming up and needs a hired gun to help. He takes the data and transfers it to his data pad, loads the coordinates and heads out to find transport to the job location.
On his journey, Ryah receives and encoded message coming over his datapad from a particular bounty hunter, a Gank stating he has information on a possible known location of Gohna. And apparently on this new job Ryah has taken, will be able to share the information with him as for he too, has taken a job for the same mission he himself has taken.
"No one threatens my family. I'm coming for you Gohna."

Motivation

Relationship: Parents, Siblings
*Note: I'm choosing three for certain reason. tThe love of his parents as well as siblings. I'll add more to this before game time

Obligations

(5)Betrayal: Gonah, a fellow partner turned against Ryah and framed him for stealing the credits that were supposed to be given to Skinny, a Hutt they were working for. Skinny is now giving Ryah a chance to pay back the debt or find Gonah, whatever comes first.

(5)Bounty: The pending bounty coming for Ryah's head plagues his mind. The worry of his family being found makes him have fever dreams at times. Knowing that either way, Gohna is going to either come easy or going to die.

(5)Responsibility: comes from a long line of force trained or sensitive family members. The only one not attuned to it, he still helps take care of his elderly parents and sends 20% of all jobs home to them.

(5)Family: Jedi in training, Ryah's parents escape the Emperor's Order 66 running to Corellia. Finding a habitual moon, the build a life and have three children. Talon, the oldest, Ryah, and their little sister Tessa. Talon and Tessa, attuned to the force like their parents, Ryah feels left out at times, not strong with the force or even attuned to it, feeling shut out, he fills his mission in life to become a protector for his family. Talon, now married is running from the emperor and Imperial Inquisitors trying to take back his wife, a former agent and Hand to the Emperor, run to stay safe. Talon, very powerful, wanted also to twist into a dark agent.
Tessa, stays to help keep guard of her family, also secretly training young force users to harness their powers in secret. Ryah makes sure he keeps funds coming to his family, unable to work due to age and illness, he sends 20% of all of his jobs to his family. His parents remind him that they are fine and are able to work. Ryah's mom likes to remind him that she can still put him over her knee and take care of business for calling her and his dad old and ill.

Description

Considers himself a "Lady Killer"

Other Notes

This saved recording was retrieved from a Holovid conversation between Ryah and Tessa prior before meeting with the crew of the Tipsy Gitka

Ryah dials the connection and waits.
"Hello? Hey big brother! What kind of trouble are you into now?"
Tessa Volins appears. Average built, wearing a tunic and pants, she leans over and you can see her adult freckles on her face. Being a Dark haired youthful look, a feature the most people find striking about her when looking into her green eyes.
"I'm a bit insulted Tess. You know I'm never in trouble."
She rolls her eyes.
"Whatever, I'm still scrambling this message. I know better than that."
They both laugh a bit, becasue straight to the point, Ryah is actually in trouble. As they stare into silence for a moment.
Running in the background are 3 furry medium creatures called Drall that seem to be levitating a ball in the air and tossing it back and forth to each other. A Selonian female looks into the video feed and waves at the screen.
Ryah smiles.
"Good to see you Zelha! I hope Tessa is actually teaching you some things!"
A mix between a bi pedal feline and a humanoid, the equivilant of a smile comes across her face.
"Yes Ryah, she has. Watch!"
She turns around and suddenly the furry Drall children begin to levitate as well. Ryah bursts in excitment and claps his hands.

"Well done! Well done! I'm so proud of you! Remember though."
"I know Ryah. I will not jepordize our secrets. I'm just glad to finally see that I am not an outcast and can learn to do well with this. I shall let you continue to talk with your sister."
She bows and exits the screen. Tessa comes back into view.
"Tess, hows Mom and Dad?"
"They are doing well. They keep putting the credits you keep sending them into a jar with your name on it and Mom wrote on it "Ryah's Vacation Fund". Her and Dad have no clue why you keep sending credits. You know Dad is doing really well with the shop and Mom's Floral bouquet's are really taken off. They make alot of credits around town as well as the nearby cities. You need to keep that for yourself."
"Ah you know how I am. With Talon running with Talla, I want to make sure if anything happens where you guys are....."
"Ryah, stop it. I know what you are going to say but seriously. We are safe. Very safe. The Empire is not going to find us. Besides you know how Mom and Dad are. They weill sense danger and you know we have a plan if we need to evacuate."
There's a pause. Ryah seems a bit sad and Pratt senses this and begin running his hand on Ryah's shoulder as if he is epathetic to his feelings. Tessa continues.
"How has your self training going? Are you still sensing things?"
"I still get dreams." Ryah states. "More feelings of what's around me. I thought Mom said I wasn't able to feel anything force related?"
"Well you may not be attuned to the force like the rest of us but that doesn't mean you might not sense it. The force comes to us and surrounds us in different ways. You may not manifest anything except for what you have now. Maybe you need some home time. It's been a couple of years. Speaking of that, I have my sources looking into this thing with Gohna. Dad isn't worried about him. The Drall are willing to help if anything comes to play with this. I'll let you know more as we find out more."
"Cool. Any help on his whereabouts will be great. I need to get this potential bounty off my head. I don't want to put you guys at risk. All we need is to have Skinny and his Hutt cartel come after you and the Empire take notice."
"Understand. Be safe big brother. Keep me posted on what you find out about Yisa Obani. Mom and Dad are interested in what she may know. Mom had another dream about her. She's confused and she will need your help. Dad is trying to figure a way to send out a message to this Rebal alliance letting them know there are other Force users and former Jedi in hiding. Hoping maybe that one day we can join them and we can be of assitance."
"I will. I'm hearing great things about this job. And there's this Gank named Jäger I have been communicating with. He seems to be a punk but kind of looking forward to seeing how good he actually is.”
They both state into the hobos a moment in silence.
“Love you Tess. My next message will be when I'm with the Gitzka."
