Background

Jannsk comes from a lowly family, with a father that was not a particularly good hunter. Thankfully, he's inherited some skills from his mother and is too ambitious to remain at that level. As soon as he could hold weapons, he was training to escape his poor life and had clear aptitude for fighting.

Jannsk met Mrash while working a job for her father. He was reporting his success when he met the female and was instantly smitten. The two of them started something of a clandestine courtship, as she was from a wealthy family and her father was known as a warrior of some renown. Jannsk was convinced that the only way to earn her hand was to prove himself a great warrior and he quickly signed up to leave his home planet to pursue his legend against her wishes. In his mind, he would quickly prove his skills and earn his name and it wouldn't be long before he had everything he wanted.

Then he accidentally met the Wookie. A Wookie who inadvertently saved his life after a hunt went horribly sideways. The ultimate black mark for any Transdoshan. So Jannsk did what any young, brash Transdoshan would (in his mind) do to prove his superiority to the hated Wookies. He sought to prove he could do a life debt better than the Wookies could and swore one to the Wookie.

That didn't end well either.

Now, with his Jagannath score basically non-existant, Jannsk feels he's a laughingstock and will never be able to recover from his youthful mistakes and win Mrash's hand. Quick to anger and even more brash and impulsive than ever, any chance at redemption is a chance he feels he has to take. If he has to kill every living being in the known universe to improve his score and be worthy, that's what he'll do. And may the Force protect anyone that thinks to get in his way!

Motivation

Ambition - Status
Jannsk is convinced that he needs to increase his Jagannath score and thereby prove his worth to be with the woman he loves. This causes him to seek out opportunities to prove himself, regardless of potential consequences.

Relationship - Droid Companion - "Verdigris" - Despite the near-constant abuse he throws at it, Jannsk has become pretty fond of Verdigris and will actively try and protect it if it doesn't interfere in the potential of an important kill.

Relationship - Potential Mate - "Mrash" - Mrash is a Trandoshan female that Jannsk is eager to prove his worth for so he can take her as mate, despite her apparent protestations that he's already worthwhile. However, his recent setback of letting the Wookie die may have changed that opinion given the importance of Jagannath in Trandoshan society.

Obligations

Criminal (5) - "Owe a Debt" - The Droid and I owe a Hutt Crime Boss a debt of some kind (To be integrated into the campaign).

Obsession (5) - "Jagannath" - Jannsk is obsessed with his place in The Great Hunt, the Trandoshan religious ranking system, as he feels he's unworthy of the woman he loves and strives to prove his worth to a fault. His recent setback of letting the Wookie die that he'd sworn a life debt to in order to prove his superiority to that species has made him even more vigorous in his pursuit of status, regardless of the potential safety hazards.

Description

Male Trandoshan, 22 years old, 6'4" and Muscular, with Dark Brown Skin with flecks of Green and Purple eyes.

Other Notes

Annoying Wookie

Mrash,

I write to you this day to share another tale of my frustrating experiences regarding the wookie that I owe the life debt to. I’m sure I can hear you telling me I owe nothing from here, but you also know my answer to that. It gives me no pleasure to admit to this debt, as I would love nothing more than to gut him and skin him alive, but not only did he save me from certain death, he then didn’t kill me when he had me at such an obvious disadvantage. While the more pragmatic of our kind would call that weakness deserving of death, those of us who believe in the code recognize a debt to be paid.

I long for it to be paid.

Today found us retrieving a witness that was to testify against his superior in order for the planetary authorities to execute him. I wanted to kill the sniveling wretch, for that is true weakness, but my obligation stayed my hand, as did the desire to show up the annoying wookie in defending the wretch’s hideout against those that would kill him.

And show him up I did. 14 attackers came at the hideout and while the wookie needed 4 others to assist him with 7 attackers, only two of whom he dealt with, I dealt with 6 alone, killing 4 on the end of my pike. You would have felt the fire stir watching me deal with the fleeing one. I leaped into his flying transport, swung around the outside of it and impaled him in the side of the head, before leaping from the crashing machine and landing deftly. It was a sight to see, I am sure.

Following that, I got to punch some information out of the prey the wookie couldn’t bring himself to kill. He didn’t take kindly to me pointing out his weakness and we came to blows. The bumbling fool couldn’t even shove me successfully, he was so clumsy. As I watched him tumble to the ground after avoiding his awkward shove, I truly didn’t understand why we haven’t crushed their race.

To finish off the eventful day, I was ordered to take a woman with me to shake down a merchant for reasons I didn’t bother finding out. Once there, the woman tried to reason with him, but I had to take over to get things done. Finding out he knew nothing but had a gambling debt, I helped him reassure me that he knew nothing else. My new macrobinoculars and utility belt will come in handy in the future, I’m sure.

I will sign off now. The idiot who thinks he is in charge just threatened me if I fought with the wookie again, so I need to get a better idea of his capabilities, should I need to kill him. I look forward to the heat of our next meeting. May your Hunt be successful.

A Job Not Well Done
(Why I Should Be Listened To By These Halfwits)

Mrash,

It amazes me how these people I’m working with have survived this long in the dangerous part of the galaxy we work in.

If you’ll recall, we were protecting some weasel that was ratting out his former employer and deserving of the death that should have been coming to him. The day came that we had to take the vermin to his date at the advocates for the trial and the group I grudgingly work with had to come up with a “plan” to get him there. Volunteering myself for what should have been an easy task, given my skill with a Force Pike, I was overruled by the simpletons who decided to complicate things far more than necessary.

It was a cluster-****. Honestly, when the Wookie is one of the more intelligent beings in a conversation, you know you are in trouble.

The “plan” entailed the droid and another Bounty Hunter that joined our group (after the poor display by the Wookie at the house I mentioned last time, apparently our employer felt we needed someone else with actual skill other than me) driving a decoy car, while the rest of us hung out at the safehouse waiting for to drive the rat separately. I did try and make the best of it, as a spy for his enemies pretending to be a store clerk revealed himself by the safehouse and I dealt with him swiftly and efficiently.

However, once we started driving the rat, the enemy revealed himself, separating the decoy car and our allies by chasing them away from the advocate’s office as we arrived and were set upon by a group of assassins. The sniper and I left the car to take car of business, leaving our equally weaselly “leader” to scurry the rat inside. The Wookie, being his typically useless self, stood in the middle of the gunfight and took multiple shots from the assassins before I had to alter my battle plans to make sure he didn’t die on my watch. This is becoming a full-time job.

I impaled one of the assassins that was putting holes in the Wookie and deposited it at his feet, showing that once again I’m honouring my debt to him. He showed his gratefulness by looking sheepish and saying nothing, obviously embarrassed by his incompetence. The remaining assassins were either killed or ran away from the obviously superior warrior that I am. The rat and leader-weasel made it inside unharmed and I would assume that the rat spilled his guts to the advocate, although sadly not in the literal way. I did not get to see it as a terrified security guard got stun-gun happy when I wouldn’t put down my Force Pike and instead just sheathed it after shaking off the blood of my prey. The droid is in the process of finding the guard so he and I can have another meeting that he will not wake up from.

Our employer seemed satisfied by the result, as he was fairly generous with the credits. While the other simpletons are out drinking it away or whatever it is they do, I am going a little stir-crazy waiting for the droid to find the guard and listening to the Wookie prattle. These obligations need to end soon or I might just snap!

I will sign off now. I look forward to the heat of our next meeting. May your Hunt be successful!
