Armand Temi
Orphan
I'm here so much on Antecedent, I should buy a small studio apartment here, thought Armand Temi, Benefactor of the Rebel Alliance and Ambassador of Praesitlyn. The Wild Space planet wasn't quite the ecumenopolis that Coruscant or Nar Shaddaa was but Ground Zero did have good restaurants, shopping and nightlife, despite its carefully contained crime. And for one weekend it would definitely beat the dusty plains of Praesitlyn with its ghost-town villages and aggravating dust-storms.
But aside from the real estate opportunities Doctor Temi was here on business with the Red Ravens, criminals who owned a stake in just about everything on Antecedent. And the newest allies of The Rebel Alliance. And even the word "allies" was a stretch. They were more like frenemies.
For the most part the Hapan doctor avoided criminal enterprise like the Gulag plague but he did have something he thought the Ravens may be interested in selling. Despite the Admiral's protests, he had reviewed the credit reserves of the Alliance and they seemed alarmingly low to him. If he could sell this specific service despite its somewhat criminal origins, he could funnel more credits to the Alliance's coffers and assuage his guilt that it was he who committed the crime in this specific circumstance. Armand had skeletons in his closet like many of the Ravens and it was time to dress them up in a nice business suit and bring them out to, what he hoped would be, the welcoming arms of [member="Patricia Susan Garter"].
At the front desk of the Dragon Palace Casino he signed in as Battle Dragon, then took a seat and waited to be called by Ms. Garter.
