When you were High Marshal of the Bassadro Sector Armada, one of the most prevalent fleets within the Confederacy's vast swath of territory, there was a certain degree of responsibility that came with that title. And from many appearances, it would appear that Kiff Brayde actively chose to shun those responsibilities. In reality, this was not the case; if anything the High Marshal ran one of the smoothest-functioning, efficient and impenetrable sectors in the Confederacy. But that didn't mean that he was some uptight stickwad.
In fact, quite the opposite.
One of Kiff's favorite haunts was the Angel's Tears casino in the Starshine District of Fondor's ecumenopolis. He was a regular there -- Sabacc player exactly -- and although no one exactly called him High Marshal, they all knew who he was. And that he was good. This meant that, unless people were new or seeking to deliberately lose money -- or maybe get a word in with one of the most powerful men in the sector -- he had little in the way of opponents. But that didn't mean he wouldn't play. And at the present moment, sitting in the corner as he shuffled a deck of Sabacc cards absentmindedly, he was waiting for one such opponent to show.
