PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Main Features: His physical features are considered abnormal and undesirable among Shistavanen. Whereas the average Shistavanen has dark fur, a mostly hairless face with ears on the sides of their head, large feet, and short tails, Hasha instead is covered by light gray fur across most of his entire body, with lighter fur on the palms, bottoms of feet, chest, and jaw, with dark gray eyebrow-like spots. He also has an unnaturally long muzzle found in non-sentient canids, that gives him his main ‘feral’ look. His feet are small with four toes, on digitigrade legs, hands have five fingers, and all of his claws are black. Yellow/amber eyes that glow, though not as strongly as the average Shistavanen, and an unusually long tail about a foot long, making it difficult to hide in clothing.
Scars: Has a bite scar on the left arm from an adolescent Nexu. There's a notch on his left ear to mark him a criminal back in his home city. Left ear notches are for small crimes like thievery and property damage. Right ear notches are for major crimes like murder and terrorism.

Clothing/Armor: Light plate armor, a mix of blacks, dark blue with teal and orange-brown highlights, and light tan clothing, preferring less armor for movability. The chest plates are segmented to allow bending. He wears a dark gray, crosshatched patterned scarf tied around his neck that is large enough to cover his muzzle. Brown leather belts and straps. Black undergarments are hidden under the loose tan clothing. He prefers to go without footwear except during space travel or harsh environments, in which he wears custom made boots. His helmet is also custom made to accommodate his ears and snout, the helmet looking similar in shape to his head. Underneath all of his clothing, he wears a leather cord necklace with a small medallion (made from a stolen necklace), given to him by his younger brother when they parted ways.

PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS

Personality: He isn't much of a talker, mostly due to the difficulty in speaking Basic, not because he can't, but because his mouth shape makes certain phonetics difficult. He will often pause to find a word that he can pronounce with less difficulty.
In having I’soren Brahl as his only source of conversation for so long, he struggles to speak and relate with others which can make making deals and gathering info frustrating.

He’s always suspicious and untrusting, but he doesn't make that obvious as he’ll play along with whomever he is working for or with in order to make the job easier, but he is always prepared for betrayal. He holds no respect to anyone unless it is earned but will, begrudgingly, be polite when speaking with those of high status to avoid hassles.

Money and survival are about all that motivates him. His loyalty cannot be bought. If a bounty/job puts his life in danger, he will abandon it. That being said, this does not mean he will abandon a person or persons if he finds that the job has gone sideways. He has some morals that coincide with his protective instinct when it comes to his charges. He will also work with others on more difficult jobs, aware that having more numbers will increase the risk of success.

If he is in or near the system Brahl resides in, he will visit.

Hasha has yet to return to his birthplace, the ship is what he considers home, but he does occasionally wonder how his brother is doing.

Temperament: He is usually calm and controlled, a skill he had to learn when working with I’soren Brahl, but the longer he is frustrated or angry, the shorter his temper becomes. He also lacks patience and will become antsy and irritable when something takes too long.

Teeth WILL come out, usually accompanied with growls and snarls when angered and he will bite if his personal space/boundaries are intruded. If things come to a physical fight, claws and teeth will be used. He actually would rather get into a fist fight than a gun fight.

Hasha has what most of his people would consider ‘feral’, ‘wild’, or ‘primitive’ physical characteristics, meaning he appears more animal than sentient. These are undesirable traits that had led to poor treatment and ostracization in his adolescence. This has caused him to be somewhat self-conscious about his appearance but also short-tempered with anyone who makes a comment on his looks. It also means that when he sees others being mistreated because of their appearance, he tends to grow angry.

He is unfriendly towards other Shistavanen, not that he ever receives friendliness from them.

Minor Details: In most cases, he prefers the helmet off pending the situation, as it dulls his senses and makes him feel confined. For places with awful smells, he carries a respirator that covers his mouth and nose, this way he still has his hearing. He also prefers not to wear boots except when environments require it. He firmly believes in physical buttons, levers, and manual readers over digital and will modify tech to the point of making it look like scrap just to suit his needs. Others have often referred to his methods of returning to old-style tech as ‘barbaric'.

Though he is unaware, when near others who are actively using the force, he will sneeze as if it were an allergy.

Religious Beliefs: As far as religion, he has none. His people prefer to keep to themselves, and the experimentation in their species' past has led most to an often unspoken belief that there are no gods, only evolution and survival. This means the introduction of other religions is met with heavy scrutiny and dismissal.

STRENGTHS

Tracking, physical strength, speed, and agility. Mechanically savvy. Can repair engines, assemble guns and other weapons. He can tell when someone is lying by smell and heartbeat (unless they're really good at lying). His minor force sensitivity gives him heightened senses that allows him to detect mal intent and incoming danger.

WEAKNESSES

Technology confuses him. If it's a touch screen, he struggles to make them work. He can just about use a holo map and comms so long as physical buttons are present. His heightened sense of smell makes him hypersensitive to strong smells and he has a bit of a weak stomach for the more… putrid scents. His hearing is also very delicate and loud, especially high-pitched, sounds are painful to his head. He has a mild fear of heights.


HISTORY

Birth: Born to an impoverished family, he hit an unfortunate genetic lottery. From his birth, his parents knew there was something different about him. The first giveaway were his small-toed, padded feet, and him being completely covered in light gray fur. As he grew, so did his tail and muzzle, further deviating from traditional Shistavanen features. By the time he was four, others began to ostracize him,and treat him as if he was something other than Shistavanen. And as the city folk began to ostracise his family, his family then began keeping him hidden, which became more difficult for them as he grew older.

Childhood: He learns from an early age that he is different. Compared to his younger brother and others his age, he's faster, bigger, his fur is a different color, and his feet are smaller. By the time he's 10, he's heard the word ‘feral’ directed at him more than once and upon investigating he learns it's a derogatory term used for Shistavanen that display features or personalities of their ancestral DNA from centuries old experimentation with Loth-Wolves and other canine-like creatures.

Early Teens: Due to the ostracization of him and his family, they struggled to get work or were often cheated into paying more for goods. This led to Hasha and his brother learning to steal in order to eat or make money to buy food and other necessities. They become quite adept at it; the brothers use Hasha as a distraction — he doesn't have to do much but his mere existence draws attention and the market stall and store owners will shoo him away to save their business, and while they’re distracted, the younger steals what he can carry.

Age 15: With his brother ill, Hasha tries to steal food on his own and it goes poorly. He’s caught, and now that he’s old enough, he’s immediately arrested. His family can’t afford the fines or bond so Hasha is forced into Penal Labor to work off his debts. The most common work for Hasha is indentured servitude to off-world visitors as most of his own people treat him as if he were diseased.

Age 16: Hasha is hired out to I’soren Brahl, a bounty hunter visiting Uvena Prime in search of a wanted criminal hiding out in the city in which Hasha lives. He mainly helps carry the bounty hunter’s things but he ends up helping the man track and catch his bounty. Brahl, realizing Hasha has some exceptional tracking abilities, offers him the option of coming with him as an apprentice bounty hunter. Hasha, knowing that he’ll most likely never be able to pay off his debt and that his family would continue to be mistreated if he stayed, decides to accept Brahl’s offer.

Age 16-30: For the next 10-15 years, Hasha becomes an indispensable asset for Brahl in bounty hunting and the two form a stronger mentor/mentee bond to almost a point of father and son. Their bounty hunting had been so successful that Brahl retires and gifts Hasha the ship, a YG-4214 gun freighter, as he’d bought a small craft for himself for his retirement.
Today: Hasha bounty hunts on his own, with occasional mercenary work, with the dream of quietly retiring like his mentor.
