HISTORY
Born in 866 ABY to the prestigious House Hejaran on the agricultural planet Pella, Pieter enjoyed a life of luxury and opportunity not afforded to many. As a scion of House Hejaran, though not directly in line to inherit the family's vast estate, Pieter nonetheless benefited from its considerable wealth and influence.
From a young age, Pieter exhibited an insatiable curiosity about the galaxy and its myriad life forms. This thirst for knowledge led him to the esteemed Corellian Academy of Science, where he delved into the field of xenobiology. His studies provided him not just with an education but with a doorway to the wider galaxy's secrets and the diverse creatures that inhabited it.
It was during his time at the academy that Pieter discovered a passion for sport hunting. This new pursuit saw him tracking and facing some of the galaxy's most dangerous predators. What began as a hobby soon evolved into an obsession, as Pieter sought greater and more thrilling challenges. However, the thrill of the hunt eventually waned, as no beast seemed to offer the excitement or danger he craved.
In search of a more cunning and unpredictable quarry, Pieter ventured into the shadowy world of bounty hunting. He viewed his targets not merely as missions to be completed but as puzzles to be solved, each offering a unique challenge. This transition marked a significant shift in his life, from a nobleman's leisurely pursuit to the dangerous and morally ambiguous path of a bounty hunter.
Despite the drastic change in his lifestyle, Pieter has not forgotten his roots or the advantages his upbringing provided. He now splits his time between hunting bounties for clients like the Hutt Cartel and contributing to the galaxy's greater good. The credits he earns from his bounty hunting endeavors are often donated to educational institutions, including the very academy where he once studied.
