Background

Born the sole daughter of wealthy Pantoran oil tycoons, Nala wanted for little growing up. Although her conservative parents wished for her to join the family business and one day inherit their industrial empire, even as a child Nala's passion was more for building blocks than balancing books. At first it was assumed to be merely the curiosity of youth, but as she entered her rebellious teen years, Nala began spending increasing amounts of time in the oil fields and machinery wells her family controlled, fascinated by the equipment, processes and personnel that enabled her parents' fortunes. The roughnecks and workers that comprised the lowest echelons of her family's operation were happy to humor the spunky heiress' interest, teaching her the ins and outs of their craft.

Nala proved to be not only a quick learner but a natural-- no matter how unorthodox her ideas or methods, she seemed to be able to fix almost any malfunction or improve on almost any design. As she grew older, increasing exposure to the 'salt of the earth' caused her to emulate their behavior and mindset, including leisure activities unsuited for high society, such as carousing, recreational spice use, and of course gambling, where her uncanny luck served her well.

After a disastrous attempt to arrange for Nala to marry the heir of a influential shipping empire in order to cement a new industry conglomerate, the heiress' parents had had enough. They now realized they had entertained their daughter's misguided interests for far too long-- the time had come for her to put away childish things and begin acting like a proper debuttante. They forbid her from continuing her engineering pursuits or associating with 'low-borns', so of course the free-spirited teenager did the exact opposite-- she ran, fleeing her home planet of Pantora and selling off all the expensive trinkets and baubles her parents had lavished upon her over the years to fund her misadventures in the galaxy-at-large.

Nala quickly found that a girl with her charms, wits, and skills could go far, and it didn't hurt that things always seemed to work out for the best for her, no matter how astronomical the odds. It was almost like someone was looking out for her... or something.

+10 Obligation (High Risk). Nala is an adrenaline junkie who is often attracted to the rush of high-risk activities, be it tinkering with volatile weapons, pushing vehicles beyond their natural limits, or simply high-stakes sabacc.

Description

The most striking thing about Nala is easily her skin: a bright cerulean blue, like tropical ocean water. The second is how much of it her attire leaves on display: a short yellow jacket emblazoned with logo patches and insignias is partially zipped up her chest, but not nearly enough to hide the fact the only thing underneath is a bikini top the colour of coral. Her entire decanter-shaped midsection is left bare, before a pair of denim Daisy Dukes and a bulky tool belt hang dangerously low on her hips. Leather chaps cover the last lower two-thirds of her parseclong legs, ending in a pair of knee-length white cowboy boots.
