STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Ace Pilot:
Kohlo Ryks is an ace pilot, and is capable of handling most ships when put in the pilot's seat.

Competent Soldier: Skilled with both blaster rifles and pistols, Kohlo can hold her own in ground combat.

Cocky: Overconfident to a fault. Often times this leads to her being in over her head.

Loudmouth: Nearly incapable of holding her tongue, Kohlo speaks her mind in times when discretion and tact would serve her better.

APPEARANCE:
Kohlo is a Togruta female of average build. She dresses in clothing typical to the common idea of the spacer, with the exception of the Akul tooth headdress traditional to her people. Both legs below the knee are prosthetic. She has burn scarring on her left arm and shoulder, and generally wears jackets to keep it out of sight.

BIOGRAPHY:
Kohlo was raised in a hidden military academy of the Red Guards on Druckenwell as a child soldier for a radical group of extra-government vigilantes intent to prevent the planet from ever falling to the likes of the Yuuzhon Vong again. She was given compulsory education in military matters both strategic and logistical, trained in the use of standard military arms, and instructed in the flight of multipurpose vessels designed to handle dangerous extra-planetary assignments without capital ship support.

Part of Kohlo's flight training was the full maintenance and restoration of ships acquired by the Red Guards. She was assigned an Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wing, and was expected to know its functions inside and out so that she could master its flight characteristics and weaponry. The Togruta worked hard, never once questioning the authority and mission of the Red Guards, as she Druckenwell was the only home she had known. With years of precise work and upgrades made to the vessel, she had graduated to novice pilot status and was expected to take assignments from her superiors as soon as she adjusted to post-academy learning.

For several years she flew missions for the Red Guards, wherein they captured most vessels alive. It was only after a particularly dangerous assignment that cost her both of her legs below the knees that she began to feel disillusionment with the organization. The final straw though, was when she discovered that the ships they were capturing were specifically targeted to bring more children into the group, thereby keeping the number of recruits up. She had come to a moment of crisis mid flight, and turning her weapons on her own flight group she fought long enough for the ship they had been assigned to disable to make its escape. Kohlo escaped shortly thereafter, never intending to return to Druckenwell unless it was to dismantle the Red Guards personally.

SHIP:
Kohlo owns a personally restored, and fully refurbished, Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wing. The vessel is armed with twin laser cannons mounted beneath the chin, twin ion cannons above the canopy, and a pair of multipurpose warhead launchers. It is 10 meters in length, and 15 meters wide, with a height of just over 7 meters. Modern fixtures have brought the old performance numbers up to snuff with newer vessels, resulting in higher speed, maneuverability, and resilience since its original introduction. The ship can accelerate up to 26 MGLT/s, can reach a top speed of 104 MGLT, and is rated at 83 DPF in terms of maneuverability, which places it on par with most multi-role vessels in the current age.

With a shield rating of 151 SBD, a hull rating of 42 RU, the Star Wing is a very durable ship that is capable of taking the lead on assaults against much larger craft. A class 1 hyperdrive system and a class 10 backup mean that it does not need capital ship support, and it carried enough consumables for 3 days of continuous operations away from base. It is operated by a Miradyne RCS-9.4 flight control computer, equipped with an SFS N-s10.3 navigation suite, and powered by a modern ionization reactor.

In spite of these upgrades, the vessel is still not suited for engagement against dedicated superiority fighters, and struggles against interceptors and other faster and more maneuverable ships.
