Drakan
Cor Noone really knows much about this bounty hunter. He simply showed up one day with merchandise for a large bounty. Since then, he has continued to take bounties of his choice, showing up with the merchandise, accepting payment, and leaving. Many have tried contacting him for jobs, but most are refused. What noone knows is this: Growing up as a young boy on a back-water planet, Drakan Cor was raised by his father as a hunter. This was their only means of survival. His father was a skilled hunter, and taught Drakan well. Drakan felt his best when hunting. It was dangerous and exciting, as some of the creatures they hunted fought back in various nasty ways. Drakan's father was not originally from this planet, but had moved here, and married a local woman. She died of a common local fever when Drakan was only 3. His hunting skills came in some use when he was 15. Pirates came to the planet. Their ship was caught in bad weather and crashed, angering the pirates. They plundered and murdered many people, including Drakan's father. Over the next week, Drakan hunted the pirates one by one as they tried to repair their ship. At the end, Drakan had killed all of the pirates, including their leader. He took what little technical knowledge he had, combined with information in the ship's computer, and did what repairs he could to get the ship flying. He found on the ship the things they had stolen. He returned what there was from his planet to those still living, and took the rest with him when he left in the pirates ship. During his search through the computer, he found that the pirates had a bounty on them at a nearby system. On the way he studied as much as he could get from their computer on piloting, gunnery, repairs, and anything else he could find. Once on planet, he used some of the pirate's money to buy a suit of armor from a black marketeer. It was overpriced, but he had enough. He then went off to collect the bounty. It was a rather large amount. His first collection. He thought back on the hunt for the pirates, and decided he enjoyed it. "This is not a bad job. I get to hunt again, and be well paid for it." He sold the wreck he arrived in, and took the remaining pirate money, the bounty money, and the proceeds from selling the ship and purchased a modified light freighter with lines that reminded him of a flying predator from his home. He named the ship the “Night Hunter.” Finally, he got some weapons and began his bounty-hunting career. It has been many years, and he has changed since his youth. He is very private, and has begun to only take bounties to get enough money to keep himself and his ship going. He only takes jobs that interest him, and even he does not know what criteria makes a job interesting. But he knows he enjoys the hunt. Drakan is not one for contests and prizes, but to prove himself to potential employers, he did enter a Virtual Reality Tournament (held on SWRPGA) and of course emerged victorious. The prize for this contest was a custom Ace Blaster Sniper Rifle. Again, at the request of a new employer, Drakan entered the second Virtual Reality Tournament (again, held on SWRPGA). This Tournament was a team tournament, Drakan finding himself paired with a Dark Jedi named Spud. Once again he emerged the victor and was awarded 25,000 credits.
