Maranon
The Flawed Sage
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Take heed, Children of Mand'Alor , for those who practice Sorcery do indeed carry the lethal instruments of mortals on occasion, twisted by unholy art to profane purpose. And among the most terrible is the unholy firearm Buonaparte, forged from a Fallen Star, it's grip fashioned from the bone of its maker. It was Buonaparte that visited woe upon The Mandalorian Seer He-That-Saw-Red, wielded by one of the heathens of the Jedi Order after He-That-Saw-Red claimed the head of the Great Jedi of The North. With a fiery crimson blade seized from a Heathen, He-That-Saw-Red foresaw his own death, and did everything he could to prevent it, but the Jedi was crafty, and the power of Buonaparte too great, even for the Iron of our people. The great Seer fell, but not before telling the Jedi of their own eventual fall to the Dark Side in his last vision.
--translated from a Clay Tablet written in Mandalorian Commando Verse
Buonaparte's true origins are unknown IC. What is universally agreed upon is that this revolver was forged from meteor iron...every legend agrees on this one fact alone.
Kerimi Avalon, Maranon's mortal identity, was the first to craft and wield this firearm after beginning her study of magic in secret. After her fall to the Dark Side, this was one of many treasures of hers The Jedi confiscated after her heresy was uncovered. Maranon eventually stole it back and it remained in her private collection for years until her first murder. The Revolver has passed through countless hands since, yet remains as immaculate as the day it was forged. Maranon spent countless millions tracking the ancient firearm down to return it to her private collection--it is telling that of all the ancient relics she tracked down after her resurrection, this was the very first relic she sought.
