Dre Candroon
Character
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Dre's striking green eyes are as sharp as blaster fire in the dark, a feature that often unsettles those who meet his gaze for too long. His hair is worn in long green-tinted braids, tied back but often falling loosely across his face. His body is athletic and lean, the frame of a fighter honed by years of mercenary work. Tattoos coil up his neck and shoulders, intricate patterns that tell nothing of his origin but everything of his defiance. His clothing favors practicality with flair, layered jackets, scarves, and leather belts arranged in a rogue's style, blending the shadows of the Outer Rim with just enough fashion to make him stand out in cantinas or underworld dealings.
INVENTORY
- Modified DL-44 blaster pistol (fitted with custom grip & green glow-mod sights)
- Vibroknife concealed in boot sheath
- Compact comms and data-slicer toolset
- Worn leather satchel for credits and personal items
- Lightweight armor padding beneath jacket (Duraplast weave, limited protection)
- Electronic Lock Breaker
- Specter-I8 "Bonnie"
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
Dre is pragmatic above all else, survival and profit come first. Though often quiet and composed, his silence hides a sharp wit and a watchful, calculating mind. He distrusts empires, syndicates, and anyone who speaks of "order" too loudly, believing that power always comes at someone else's expense. While not openly altruistic, he occasionally bends his mercenary code to help those who remind him of his younger self. His personal creed: loyalty is earned, never given freely. He fears losing his independence to larger forces, whether Jedi, Sith, or Empire.
STRENGTHS
- Sharpshooter: Years of blaster work have made him an expert marksman, capable of precise shots even in chaotic firefights.
- Streetwise Survivor: Skilled at navigating underworld politics, reading people quickly, and adapting to hostile environments.
- Slicer: A computer expert, that excels at working within a complex computer network and could extract information from this network with great skill.
WEAKNESSES
- Distrustful: Struggles to form alliances or fully trust others, which often leaves him isolated when strength in numbers is needed.
- Haunted Past: Faces bouts of restlessness and recklessness when confronted with reminders of his early life on war-torn worlds.
HISTORY
Born on the fringe world of Ord Vareese, Dre grew up in the skeletal ruins of a planet abandoned by both Republic and Empire. Raised among smugglers, scavengers, and raiders, he learned early that survival depended on quick reflexes and quicker decisions. By seventeen, he was already running with spice-runners and blockade-breakers, his steady aim and nerve in firefights earning him a place as a hired gun despite his youth. Betrayal and loss marked his early years, teaching him to rely on himself first and keep loyalty on a short leash.
Over the years, Dre carved out a reputation as a reliable but unpredictable mercenary, drifting from one contract to another across the Outer Rim and Mid Rim. Smuggling runs, syndicate protection, and sabotage missions kept his credits flowing, but also left him with enemies in every port. Now he roams the galaxy untethered, keeping one eye on the stars and the other on the endless wars of those who claim to rule them. Dre avoids choosing sides, but in cantinas and battlefields alike, whispers persist that sooner or later he'll be pulled into the very conflicts he's spent his life dodging.
