STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES


[+] Tracking Abilities:
Most people, places and things can be hunted down relatively easily by Galen. This leaves nothing too far out of reach for the brutish man.
[+] Decisive Savagery:
Galen is quick with his decisions, his wits, and his weapons. It is difficult, though not impossible to get the jump on this man


[-] Nerve Damage:
Several of Galens nervous systems have been damaged in battle, leaving him prone to attacks of searing pain. While he can overcome the pain, it can be a distracting factor and liability when fighting force users.
[-] Ever the Savage:
Mannerisms and common decency have no place in this man's life. As a result he is hated by many he meets, and often finds himself in troubling situations.
[-] Mechanically inept:
He can fight, track and drink his fill, but Galen is utterly lost when it comes to mechanics and their craft. If something is broken, it remains broken or has to be replaced. Not a great feat for a ships Captain in battle.

APPEARANCE:

Galen stands five feet tall. But his short stature is not to be confused with his skill set nor fighting spirit. He is normally clad in light leather boots, an armor weave jumpsuit with armor plates attached, flight goggles and sports a white high and tight. On his face are scars down the left side of his face, where he's been slashed by a beastly set of claws. Other slashes and scars adorn his his right cheek, though not as severe.

BIOGRAPHY:


Galen Acturus, born under different name on Rakkatta was only one year old when the Lords of the Fringe took Rakkatta and cleared the warring tribes from the desert sands. Shortly thereafter the coalition began to shrivel and die, letting the infighting of the warrior planet resurge. Warlords took over the lands his poor parents owned, and forced their vassals to pay tribute.

In a land dispute, his Mother and Fathers Moisture farm was bombed by Rebels on the outskirts of the Capitol. Having lost nearly all his small amount of coin, Galens Father could not afford to pay the local warlord, and they soon found their baby boy wrested from their arms.

He was taken into the Capitol and sold as a slave, quickly learning that he had the will and inclination to fight. Upon his tenth birthday he was arrested and thrown in chains to be sold to the Gladiator pits, after slaying a guest at his Masters house.

Young Galen was armed with a Pair of Machetes and sent into the ring to face off against a Nexu and seven Reeks. But there was something else stirring in the boy. The latent force potential in the young man was awoken by trauma, and a lust for vengeance. Galen found himself strangely able to pair minds with several of the beasts, and succeeded in laying down bloody carnage throughout the arena, with the aid of the Nexu.

Seeing enormous potential his owner held onto him, sparing his life and teaching him the finer points of the Gladiators trade. Several years of brutal bloody matches beside his Nexu made the pair come closer and closer together, until they were pair bonded through the force. During his last match as Champion the Nexu was killed, nearly shattering his mind as the bond broke.

Driven into a mad frenzy he hacked his adversary into no less than two hundred pieces.
Stunned and Proud of the bloody spectacle he was named the champion of the pits, and granted freedom by the local magistrate. It did not take long for the wandering Galen to find himself driven from the Planet, after a string of killings and drunken frenzies.

He fled ever deeper into the unknown regions, encountering the Killiks of Yoggoy, and pair bonding with several creatures as he went. His days began to be spent bounty hunting, as a new ability to track others through the force emerged within him. A small following grew around him, and he earned the nickname "The Bloodhound."
After a series of long and ardous captures, he was able to procure a ship, an old Corellian YT-1300, and two beastly companions. He paired with another hunter, Zaedra, a Yuuzhan Vong warrior caste and they took up in Nar Shadda. What would Galen find there? The answer to his questions? Work? Or more suffering. Either way a seasoned frontiersman and brutal Hunter he is determined to carve his Legacy among the stars, or perish in the attempt.


Disciplines and Attributes

• The Beast Whisperer:

Galen is bonded with up to two beasts at a time at his current level of mastery. This gives him a wide option of supporting beasts, or other creepy crawlies. He can quickly communicate via spoken word, growl, or telepathy depending on how close the bond is. In extreme cases he can see and hear through the beasts own sensory organs, giving him a powerful boost to his tracking abilities.

• "The Bloodhound":

Every person leaves an echo in the force when they interact with an object in a place in a time. When he was born Galen was blessed by a Witch in his family. The ability has begun to manifest itself overtime, allowing him to follow the faint trails of echoes in a straight path to his target. To properly lock the trail he need to feel their signature in the force, which requires touching and possessing an object or person they once interacted with. The longer and more involved the interaction was, the clearer his trail.

• Whirling Blade Dervish:

Years of gruelling hand to hand Combat have honed Galens Savagery. Enhanced by his time spent in the wilderness of far flung planets, and on the hunt, his skills with the blade are well renowned. His primary style of attack is lay down heavy rain, then come crashing in with his beast companions, roaring and whirling with his dual machetes.

• Companion Retinue:

Aligned with Beasts, a Yuuzhan Vong Warrior (Zaedra) and a stunning large and strong Killik, Galen has his back covered in just about any situation.

• Frontiersman:

Having lived, fought and survived the harsh backwaters and space lanes of the Unknown Regions Galen can survive some of the harshest elements, and move faster, farther and fight harder than many other folk.
