Zaada, like all of the Togruta is a born hunter. She learned the importance of teamwork before she could even walk on her own two feet. She leaned to move quietly and stalk prey from watching her parents as she grew. The value of personal contribution to the collective whole has always been a central pillar of her culture's values. She grew up in Corvala, Shili's Capitol. Cities are still few and far between on the planet, as many of the people still prefer to live in their ancient tribal villages among the forests and plains of their world. Togruta are adept at living off the land and hunting the creatures that inhabit the wilds. Her parent decided to move to the city in hopes of offering their daughter a new way of life.
Zaada took the hunting tradition of her people in another way. She grew up learning of the Empire's horrific and destructive ways. How it is that they either steal or destroy the knowledge of many cultures in their mad desire to reshape both the history and future of the galaxy in their own twisted image. She learned of the campaigns of hate and propaganda against her people and other non-human species. Her passion to learn and capture this lost knowledge and history is what caused her to pursue her career as a Archaeologist. A Hunter of Knowledge. A preserver of the past and of cultures, so that the future could still remember the history that evil so desperately sought to erase.
It made her course clear. So many of her motivations drew her to joining the rebellion against the evil Empire. Zaada believed that through them she could gain the resources, tools and allies she would need to safe guard the history of the galaxy and preserve it for all future generations. Skill and careful study are the talents she employs to aid the burdgeon New Republic as a scout and hunter of lost lore for the Rebel Alliance.
Motivation
DISCOVERY
What drives an Explorer? What sends someone from the relative comfort and security of civilization into the vast void of space? What commits him to delving into the hidden places to seek that which has been lost? What moves him to hunt the most dangerous creatures ever encountered? What compels him to grab the stick of a pile of bolts, plastics, and rusted metal and push the machine beyond its breaking point over the most treacherous terrain imaginable?
Explorers often have at the core of their very being an unyielding passion for Discovery: the powerful call to find something out there in the galaxy is their true Motivation. An Explorer may wish to discover the limits of a machine, the capabilities of an infamous beast, the lost secrets of an ancient civilization, the mercantile potential of a hidden society, the resources of a newly discovered planet, or the uncounted opportunities among the limitless stars.
Often, what happens after making a Discovery is far less important than the journey to make it in the first place. Explorers regularly turn the task of exploiting and managing their Discoveries over to others (though usually at a tidy profit to themselves). Staying put is anathema to the Explorer; there are always new Discoveries out there waiting for him.
KNOWLEDGE
Akin to secrets, but not always quite as dangerous, lost and hidden knowledge can be a powerful asset. Eons of conflict caused vast storehouses of knowledge to be lost amid the rubble of destroyed cities, derelict ships, and abandoned space stations. Intrepid Explorers are the miners of that knowledge, bringing it back into the light of day for all to benefit from. Archaeologists are naturally inclined to search for knowledge, as are Fringers and Traders.
