STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
Defense Force Trained: Trained as a part of the local Bakuran Defense Force before the disappearance of the First Order from the planet, Wesley Cole has been familiarized with some of the most basic ways of war and is in turn somewhat familiar with small arms. Additionally, he has been trained in some of the most basic tactics of urban and conventional warfare.
Technically Savvy: Due to both his mind for mechanics and technology and his previously assigned billet in the Bakuran Defense Force as a Small Vehicle mechanic, he knows his way around power systems and small craft both speeders and shuttlecraft.
Idealistic: Firm in his beliefs of freedom and the right to choose his own destiny, Wes' ideals serve as both a moral compass and as a stumbling stone. While they keep him on a moral path, his ideals can be twisted against him if manipulated properly.
Inexperienced: Though he has been trained, he spent very little time in the active Bakuran Defense Force before he was released. During the withdrawal of First Order forces, those still in various stages of training were released. With no revenue stream, there was no way the Bakuran government alone could afford to pay all their wages. Though he trained for it, Wesley Cole has never fired a weapon in anger - not once.
Rebellious Spirit: Never one to take to overzealous authority, Wes isn't the type to keep his disagreements to himself. He doesn't like taking orders from anyone unless he agrees, which naturally can cause issues to arise if he thinks he knows better. He's certainly not against disobedience and in some cases follows the laws to his own liking.
BIOGRAPHY:
A native Bakuran, much of Wesley's life was typical for that of a resident of the outer rim. Much of his formative years were spent living on Bakura but as he headed into his more recent years, he'd been living beneath the arm of the First Order. His story might seem unremarkable, unnoticeable even - at least till now. With the recent fall of the empire of the First Order, a new page has been turned and Wesley Cole has firmly taken his destiny into his own hands.
