H I S T O R Y Summary: With influential parents and good genetics on his side, Talon was selected to receive special training from an early age and have excelled in more fields than anyone could have expected. It brought him to serve among the very best of what the Chiss Ascendancy had to offer. The lack of action and adventure along with the dissatisfaction with higher command eventually lead to him deserting. It did not happen at whim - through diligent planning, he assumed a new identity and started his life anew as a smuggler and gun for hire on the galactic stage.
A D V A N C E D . O P E R A T I V E Starting his training at an early age, Terence quickly became acustomed to the reality that people would, sooner or later, die. Violence was but one factor in when that would happen. It was a callous way of viewing things but it allowed him to act with greater decisiveness. With this, he eventually came to display a degree of calculative callousness which contributed to the young Chiss becoming a good strategical and tactical thinker.
The training which he went through covered more than just tactics and strategy, however. Its main focus was on combat against all kinds of foes, whether they be a soldier, a force user, a droid, a beast or a starship. Each had their own strengths and weaknesses and he learned to quickly analyse them and try to find a way to counter them. This training was particularly unique seeing as how it made Terence more skilled at facing force wielding opponents. His mind was hard for them to read and at times, he could enter a room unnoticed by those relying on the capacities of Force Sense.
Whether it be open warfare or covert operations, his training and raw talent allowed him to be a valued and efficient participant. Even then, however, Terence was not fully satisfied. The Chiss Ascendency, sitting at the edge of the galaxy, always seemed too content. It never really sought to expand and was rarely attacked. The lack of action and adventure caused Terence to grow increasingly frustrated as his highly honed skills seemed to go to waste. And with little chance to prove himself, climbing further in his military career proved to be nigh on impossible. And so, he decided to desert.
I N T E R G A L A C T I C . S M U G G L E R Meticulous, careful and utterly competent - if anyone was going to desert and thrive, Terence was well suited for the task. After his initial disappearing act, he would reemerge with a new identity a few months later. Having completely cut his ties to those from his previous life, the main risk to him was if he was ever recognised - but leaving a paper trail was nothing he feared.
With his lust for action and adventure whilst also having a deep desire to maintain his rather lavish lifestyle, Terence took on smuggling and earned a reputation for getting the job done - something which opened the door to more lucrative jobs. Naturally, this did not sate his desire for action - that would only be done through combat. For that reason, he also served as a gun for hire, a mercenary of the highest quality.
These jobs did not only pay well - but the Chiss also earned the favour of many influential leaders and businessowners across the galaxy and had been sure to also appease the shadier elements, ensuring that he could always call on someone for aid when it was needed. -
A P P E A R A N C E Blue skinned with red eyes and hair of the deepest of blues, Terence looked very much like what he was: A Chiss. His face lacked clear distinguishing marks such as scars and burn marks. While his red eyes could project a menacing image for the uninitiated, he did not have a particularly hostile resting face. Oftentimes, Terence looked as if he was highly concentrated and in deep thought - but if one managed to see past that, an inner kindness could shine through. While he was by no means a saint, he was also far, far removed from evil.
Getting to see the Chiss' face at all was not always easy however - in an effort to reduce his recognisability, he often chose to wear clothes which covered him completely or at the very least his face. The blue skin and red eyes could make him easy to recognise indeed.
Well trained and healthy, Terence boasted an impressive physique which maximised his agility and physical strength. While his musculature was well developed and defined, it was not bulky to the point where it would become an obstacle that restricted his movement in a significant way. It also allowed for an impressive stamina which enabled him to stay active for long swaths of time. Although Terence was taller than average, it was not enough to make him stand out in a crowd. -
S T R E N G T H S .&. W E A K N E S S E S +Advanced Training - Terence has received elite training and can expertly block out mind probes by force users, handle a wide range of weapons, vehicles and other equipment. He also has a deep understanding of how tacitcal operations are conducted and is well suited to operate on any battlefield.
+Well-connected - Has built up a large network of friends and associates across multiple systems and can thereby call in favours in a number of varied situations.
+Ace Pilot - While Terence was already a most skilled pilot during his time with the Ascendancy, his skills have been honed to perfection during his years as a smuggler.
+Techie - Bright, the recipient of high-level education and trained with the best, Terence has a deep understanding for advanced technology and tends to carry a wide range of exclusive gadgets to use upon need.
-On the run - Some deserters are never truly safe. Terence is one of them and constantly has to throw an eye over his shoulder - for if he were to get caught, the terms 'free' and 'alive' would soon become rather foreign.
-Blue - Chiss are not common in the galaxy which means that they are relatively easy to spot, recognise and remember unless fully covered.
-Vengeful - Terence will seek vengeance on those who have wronged him. It is a trait which may, at times, cloud his judgement, making him less compassionate and less rational.
-Profligate - Having lived a life in relative wealth, Terence is used to spend credits lavishly. This is not always wise for someone living the life of a smuggler.
~Athletic - While some specialise on speed and agility, others specialise in strength and constitution. Terence has not specialised in either of those and has instead improved both areas, increasing his versatility but decreasing his capacity to go toe-to-toe with a specialist. -
I T E M S Terence owns a vast and varied wardrobe with a plethora of different clothes and armour sets. He can usually be found in medium armour to help him fend against blaster bolts at select areas and provide some general protection. When in settings where armour would stand out, it is not uncommon for him to wear a poncho or some other apparel over it.
With his training in weapons of all kinds, Terence usually carries a vibrosword, a blaster pistol and a marksman's rifle. He also tends to carry three grenades and a bactapac. Naturally, this is not the full extent of his offensive and defensive tools. His backpack sports a jump-jet, his shoes has a magnetic grip function and the gloves are crushgauntlets. On his utility belt he has a versatility tool, an advanced datapad and a scrambling device. Having taken after the Mandalorians, he also has a vambrace on each hand, one equipped with a low-capacity flamethrower and the other with a grappling hook and miniature drill-arm.
Owns 100% of the shares in IMP. -
A B I L I T I E S Terence is a skilled tactician and a good shot. In particular, he enjoys both a good aim and fast reflexes when using his blaster pistol and is not unfamiliar with using two of them at once. This does not mean that he is unskilled in other fields and has been noted as a skilled marksman and a competent melee fighter, both unarmed and with swords.
Trained to work as an Advanced Operative, he is skilled at infiltration and setting up lethal ambushes with minimal means in terms of manpower. It is fully possible to describe his reliance on technology and gadgets as a vice but on the other hand, few are as capable at adapting and using them to their advantage as Terence is.
One of his main strengths from his special training is his capacity to deal with force users. This will not always shine through and there are distinct disadvantages he has to overcome when facing them. Still, his training has him well prepared to try different methods and it has also made him highly resistant against mind-probes and by extension being detected by Force Sense.
During his time as a smuggler and gun for hire, the Chiss have become a masterful pilot and have also managed to hone his social skills, gathering a vast network of friends and associates across the galaxy. People whom he can call upon if need be.
