There are few people as bombastic as "former" pirate Herik Starseeker. Born to a gambler and a fling on Ryloth, Herik grew up on the move as his father drifted from one con to the next, teaching him the complicated life of a smuggler along the way.

Early in his days, Herik made an enemy of the Pykes, and that encounter left its scars on him, physically and mentally. This never deterred his passion for adventure. It only tempered his resolve to be more precise with the controlled chaos of his life. Despite his protestations about his numerous setbacks, Herik enjoys the unexpected twists and turns that his charmed life has brought him.

His penchant for high risk, high reward behaviour naturally led him to the dangerous life of piracy and smuggling, but when galactic war broke out, Herik saw a new opportunity. By taking jobs with the Separatist forces, Herik was granted a small pardon to his outstanding crimes, along with a small sum of credits. Now, he uses his flair and panache to cut the Republic down a few pegs, and make some credits on the side.

Money- Herik loves credits above all else, and despite his claims that he is a loyal friend, is very easily swayed by the idea of a large payout
Adventure- Herik wants to see the galaxy and everything it has to offer, both the good and the bad, the exciting and the dangerous
Freedom and individuality- Herik hates the idea of being tied down. His ideal life would be lived adrift the stars, moving from planet to planet and doing as he pleases

Fears:
Accountability- Herik deeply fears his past catching up with him
Responsibility- His father set a poor example for Herik and so he doesn't know the first thing about taking charge or being responsible
Acute Claustrophobia- Herik deeply fears extremely tight and enclosed spaces due to an early and traumatic experience from his father where he was smuggled in a shipping container for three days with no light.

Duty- Sabotage 0 - The life of a smuggler naturally leads Herik to more clandestine opportunities, and his knack with computers and machines allows him to create more than his fair share of chaos when he so desires.
