STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
[ + ] THE POWER OF ATTORNEY: Masters of Interstellar Relations, Juris Doctor, Master of Laws (Constitutional Law)... This Gungan is a litigation beast. He not only reads the fine print, he wrote the fine print. He discusses contract law, labor regulation, and civil liberties the way other people discuss sports statistics.

[ + ] AQUATIC: He takes to water like a fish and is an extremely adept swimmer.

[+/-] PAY TO PLAY: The Nemo Foundation aids orphans and children of broken homes on the planet Cyrillia, including developing schools in impoverished areas of the planet. All of which has worked to bolster Jon Jon's public image; however, the 'administrative costs' of the Nemo Foundation have been cause for public speculation about how much Jon Jon profits from his charitable 'not-for-profit' foundation. The fact that he left the Attorney General's office to work for a highly lucrative criminal defense firm also presents the image that Jon Jon is motivated by the acquisition of personal wealth.

[ - ] MAKE LAW, NOT WAR: He's not Bruce Lee. He's not even Bruce Campbell. He's unfamiliar with blasters, useless with any other kind of weapon, and otherwise reliant on others to do the martial arts, Jedi, or shoot'em up for him

[ - ] SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED: He doesn't understand some technology. The internal workings of a blaster, droid, or ship are a mystery to him. He pays people to take care of those things for him. He can get by with the basics of using a datapad, but even that has its limits.

APPEARANCE
An Otolla Gung possessing the lanky, long frame that's typical of the race. He had dark yellow eyes and allowed his ears to hang unfettered over his shoulders rather than tying them back. He preferred loose clothing, often resembling judicial robes. He had four-fingered hands and three-toes feet, as par the norm. He traditionally went barefoot, even in the court house or senate chambers.

BIOGRAPHY
Originally hailing from Naboo, college catapulted this Gung into a brave new world of politics, law, and finance. Accepting a golf scholarship to a former Imperial Academy, Jon Jon left the swamps of his homeworld and became lost inside of a university party culture that overwhelmed him at first. By his second year, nearly failing, the Gung was figuring out who he wanted be as he discovered he enjoyed the debates that followed sociology and political sciences course work. An internship opportunity with a local politician cemented his interest in public administration and government.

For a time, he worked on Chandrila as a staffer for one of the planetary delegates, while settling into classes at the Royal Academy of Government. He would graduate later with a joint degree in law and interstellar relations. As a new lawyer, in a saturated career field, he applied far and wide in the hopes of landing a job in the field. Success brought him the Attorney General's office on Cyrillia, a neutral world outside the political sphere of the Republic, but one which offered him an entry-level position as an Assistant Attorney General handling prosecution and actual trial practice in court.

As a rookie prosecutor, Nemo was handed the family violence case desk. But the cases proved to be a catapult into the public eye, as Nemo's successful prosecution of cases, combined with an expanding network of social workers and anti-abuse lobbyists supplied him with opportunities for greater exposure into Cyrillia's politics. These connections allowed Nemo to become involved in a non-profit charity for victims of domestic abuse, which he would later reorganize into the Nemo Foundation -- bolstering his public image across the planet.

His sudden departure from public office was something of a scandal, as he accepted a lucrative offer from a private, criminal defense firm. Facing public perception nothing more than another lawyer, or a medical transport chaser, Nemo leveraged the Nemo Foundation to keep his name in some favorable light as he edged his way toward a nomination onto the planetary judicial circuit. He might have succeeded in his bid to become a judge, if not for Cyrillia's sudden invitation -- and acceptance -- into the Galactic Republic.

Seizing opportunity as it presented itself, Nemo abandoned his plans for a place on the bench and ran against Prylar Jett, a Cyrillian, for Cyrillia's seat in the Galactic Senate. By a narrow margin, he won election as the Senator for Cyrillia and now leaves Cyrillia behind as he journeys to Onderon for what challenges and opportunities may yet reveal themselves.

What's to hate? Other than being the mirror image of the most hated character in all of Star Wars, Jon Jon seems like a wonderful person.
