Background

“Doctor” Veszk grew up in a tribe of traditional Rodian hunters. After showing he had absolutely zero aptitude or stomach for either hunting or killing he was left at home with the weakest members of the tribe. In an effort to avoid punishments for not participating in hunts he took to assisting the tribe’s healer in tending to the wounds of injured hunters when they returned home.

When his planet was invaded by Separatists he managed to talk his way into the company of smugglers who had made a brief stop on his homeworld by offering his healing services to their crew.

For a while things seemed to be going well. But in the company of unsavory underworld characters “Doctor” Veszk picked up some bad habits, particularly an obsession with gambling and games of chance.

During several stops on Varl his near-addiction led to a string of ill-advised wagers in a Hutt-owned gambling den, none of which he won.

Veszk unsuccessful attempted to sneak back to his ship and crew and was abducted by debt collectors for the Hutt.

He now found himself held captive and forced to apply his meager healing skills patching up the wounds of the Hutts small army of thugs and mercenaries. The idea being that he would pay off his debt and somehow rejoin his former crew.

Sadly, the Hutt took advantage of Veszk’s obsession with wagering and games of chance to keep him servile. Things took a dark turn when news reached him that his former crew mates had run afoul of the empire and have been captured or killed, and now he is left with little hope or goals to work towards.

Motivation

Ambition-Freedom
Veszk longs for the day that he is no longer indebted and indentured and no longer trapped under the crushing yoke of Hutt oppression and criminal activity.

Cause-Emancipation
Veszk believes passionately in the sanctity of life and the importance of promoting freedom and peace.

Obligations

Debt-5
Veszk is deeply indebted to a criminal Hutt enterprise due to his unfortunate penchant for losing at gambling. His substantial debts have led to his indentured servitude, acting as a medic and healer, patching up the wounds of the Hutt’s many soldiers, guards and bounty hunters.

Obsession (Gambling)-5
While Veszk no longer actively gambles or wagers, he harbors an unnaturally deep fascination with games of chance and with percentages, probabilities and likelihoods.
