Biography:
Born in a rather rough neighborhood and even rougher family her only outlet was to compete in her public school’s athletic clubs to keep herself away from trouble. From swordsmanship to acrobatics Rippana continued to hone her skills even more, perhaps to one day make a career from her abilities. As the years rolled by during her schooling years her abilities greatly improved but the opportunities for her to escape into stardom only wisped away as time and time again her family troubles and street gangs would deter her path. Her family would not help her achieve her dreams, and at times it was her family that were influenced by the gangs to act in such a way.
It was a chance encounter for her to meet the young Rhan when she did, when she turned to the age of seventeen she was forced to perform at a much seedier casino. Her acrobatics were impressive and gave certain crime leaders something to watch and entertain themselves with and it was here where the young Rhan was hired to be a guard for an older noble that wished to test his luck. Rippana wore a very form fitting attire, but it was indeed revealing and leaving little to the imagination. A trivial argument nearby Rhan’s employer escalated very quickly to an all out brawl that began to absorb more and more people. Security, thugs hired by the local crime boss, quickly tried to intervene and the show Rippana was trying to put on ended. Blasters were drawn and Rippana only stared in horror at the situation she was in, her feet froze but quickly unhinged as she jumped behind a few tables toppled over for cover. Next to her cover sat on the floor was Rhan and with his employer quietly sobbing in fear of the violence tearing apart the casino.
“Do you wish to leave?” Was what he asked, his hand stretched out for her to grab.
She nodded as she reached out and grab hold of his hand, for a brief moment Rhan’s eyes softened and offered a short nod of approval. He released her hand as he spoke quickly to his employer of his plan to escape the casino relatively unscathed. He moved into a crouching position and motioned for the both of them to do the same. The exit was straight ahead but making a run for it would leave their backs exposed and even drunk aiming would have hit people making a run for it if fired enough times.
“I’ll provide cover, you two just don’t stop running until you are out of the Casino,” Rhan ordered.
Rippana and the older noble nodded, with a single phrase “Go!” from him, the two made a sprint towards the exit. Neither looked behind, but Rhan kept on saying “Go! Go!” and she could have sworn she felt the heat of blaster bolts firing past her, missing. When the doors opened the rush of fresh hit Rippana hard as she greedily took in several gushes of air into her lungs, the older noble did the same. Once calmed she turned around to see Rhan closing the doors, her mouth dropped and her eyes widen as she saw burnt marks all across his back, his black tail coat ruined with burnt holes but it revealed concealed armor underneath. Rhan turned around to face them, his eyes were filled with pain but his voice was calm as ever. “I have already had made the call for our Taxi mi’lord,” Rhan said as he took a small bow.
The Noble nodded as he paced to and fro as he seemed more preoccupied with how he managed to make it out alive. Rippana turned her attention to Rhan as she moved to at least thank the man, boy to her standards, “Thank you,” She managed to say.
He turned to face her and nodded, “Of course mi’lady,” Rhan offered a nod as he gave her a once over to confirm she wasn’t at all injured. She quickly turned her face the ground, slightly embarrassed of her attire now she had time to be self conscious. She blinked surprisingly as she felt cloth find its way over her shoulders as she saw Rhan place the Noble’s coat on her to provide her with some more modesty.
“Thank you, again,” Rippana said, though sincere, she said it through gritted teeth.
“If you can fight, than fight mi’lady,” Rhan said quietly as he stood next to her.
She scoffed once, “You can say that because you’re strong enough, I’m not so lucky,” She explained bitterly.
She looked to see Rhan make a very serious expression, “It does not matter the strength of anybody else but your own, as long as you have the courage to stand up against your enemies as well as to stand for yourself you will find that strength is not everything,” He spoke, his words articulate and quick before turning to look at his employer. He began to move towards his employer as the Taxi finally had arrived for the two.
Rippana looked to and fro before reaching out with her hand to grasp at Rhan’s shoulder, “Would you teach me to brave enough to stand?” She asked.
His next words were perhaps the strangest but heartfelt, “Back straight, chin up, Legs together, feet at a ninety degree angle and do not lock in your knees,” Rhan explained, turning around to face Rippana, “Standing is the easy part, I’ll show you how to keep on standing and getting up even when the galaxy wants you kept down,”
