CONTENT INFORMATION

The Calians are a people who defy traditional forms of classification. Despite their physical and physiological differences from other humanoid groups in the galaxy, they were long presumed to be just another ethnicity of baseline Humans. However, recent research conducted by anthropologist and xenobiologist Hieronymus Hoole indicates the answer may be more complex. In this scholarly essay, Hoole lays out a new theory: that while ancient Humans may have been their ancestors, modern Calians have evolved so far beyond humanity that it would be incorrect to call them such anymore.

• Calians are almost universally stronger than Humans, with a predilection towards bravery and passion
• Ryastraad is a physiological as well as mental and emotional state. Includes changes to the endocrine system in the form of a massive burst of adrenaline, which in a normal Human would have potentially life-threatening effects, but for Calians is tolerable
• Force Sensitive Calians are notably more prone to ryastraad and their passionate nature is further enhanced by the Force
• Calians who interbreed with baseline Humans and other species tend to produce children who do not have Calian characteristics - however, the Calian DNA remains present to be carried on to future generations, with potential to manifest strongly in a grandchild or great-grandchild (?)

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: My writing partner came back from a long LOA wanting to write a character we had planned years ago. Problem was, in the meantime I had used him as an NPC, and what I had written didn't match up with what she had in mind for the character. So, to rectify this continuity flaw I will reveal that my version of "Starlin" was... sigh ... really a clone all along.
• Image Credit: Maria Hideki (edited by me)
• Role: A clone of Starlin Dinn created in secret by his father Arcturus Dinn to pose as his son.
• Permissions: Screenshot of the discussion I had with Starlin Dinn's writer about how to handle the continuity issue.
• Links: "Rokanan's World"

PHYSICAL INFORMATION

• Age: 19
• Force Sensitivity: Apprentice/Padawan, Knight
• Species: Near Human Clone
• Appearance: Red-haired and green-eyed, Staarlin looks like what would result from putting each of his parents' features in a blender... which might not be too far from the truth.

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Name: Staarlin Dinn
• Loyalties: [ Faction affiliation? Is he an NPC companion for a certain character? Is she part of a specific military unit? Only themselves? Link any relevant characters, faction pages, or groups. ]
• Wealth: [ How wealthy are they? Where does that wealth come from? Are they stakeholders in existing corporations? If so, link to them. ]
• Notable Possessions: [ Describe or link any notable possessions they might own. Please link any relevant factory submissions or uncommon canon links. ]
• Skills: [ What skills does this NPC have? Are they a pilot, a farmer, a mechanic? Do they paint or knit in their free time? For Force users if they have any special abilities that are rare list them here. Be reasonable. ]
• Languages: [ What languages do they know? For example, it's very common to know Basic and Huttese, and many droids know binary droidspeak. Please provide links for any unusual languages. ]
• Personality: Staarlin is a rowdy, energetic young man who works hard and plays hard. Happiest when playing games, he loves sports and enjoys pulling pranks. He's a tough guy and frequently injuries himself; expect to see him covered in band-aids, bandages, or even a cast when his hijinks inevitably result in him breaking a bone. He also harbors an interest in technology, taking machines apart with the Force to see how they work. He shares many of his father's interests, including a natural affinity for the Netherworld. A fool by design, he fails to see deception in others and takes everything people say at face value (especially the people he trusts).

COMBAT INFORMATION

• Weapon of Choice: [ Military blaster rifle? Toy lightsaber? Bioweapons? Wits? Charm? The Force? Please provide links to any relevant factory submissions or uncommon canon links. ]
• Combat Function: [ Combat is difficult to avoid -- after all, this is Chaos. Should your NPC wind up in combat, what would they be good at? How would they work alongside you, or would they be a liability? Remember: An NPC is weaker than a PC of an equivalent level, and will not match them in power, skills, or abilities. ]
• Force Abilities (Force Users Only): [If your NPC is a Force User, please list their Force abilities, especially unusual or rare ones.]

Strengths:

• [ Provide, in list format, some strengths of this submission. 2 recommended. ]
