BIOGRAPHY
I was born on the great planet of Mandalore, into Clan Beroya, I was second oldest of three of us, my older brother Rhurr and my dear twin sister Marva, as children Marva and me we could never be separated. Until When I was a boy of seventeen, a member another clan caught me with his mistress. He should have been honoured, instead, the fat old fool challenged me to a duel. Thanks to my age and status it was only to first blood but his mistress and his wife warned me which of my parts he intended to draw first blood from. He was strong and fierce but slow, I cut him quickly and the dual ended with honour satisfied, then his wounds festered and he died. Ever since people have called me “The Viper of Mandalore”. The name never fails to draw a laugh from me, as if a single serpent was all I knew of venom.
In the aftermath, I was sent into temporary exile; though none dared call it exile to my face. In order for Clan Beroya to make peace with the other clan. During these adventurous times, I travelled extensively, even going to the esteemed University of Coruscant to learn to be a doctor but I grew bored of it, servitude is not my place. so I left for the outer rim and Sith space, here I met those willing to teach me more about poisons and perhaps even darker arts. I even once went to the planet Korriban and saw the Sith, they are impressive warriors on the battlefield but less so in the bedroom, I might say so myself. I lived in the outer rim and Sith space for a total of seven years, fighting duels with people who were stupid enough to challenge me in the fighting pits and duelling rings of many planets of the outer rim. It is here where I honed my skills and combat techniques and won such much they finally granted me an award a Phrik/durasteel alloy spear which I named it the Twilight spike for its craftsmanship was as beautiful as Twilight and because Twilight was Marva's favourite time of day. after that, I grew bored with duels so I joined a mercenary company for four years, I met many interesting characters and encounters and yes that includes sexual. most of you undoubtedly know the rumour that I have bedded with half of the people he has ever met in the galaxy I confirm nor deny this, but let's say I have fathered two daughters, which I acknowledged of my own and given my love and care too. I teach them Mandalorians ways and allow them great independence in growing up.
Now comes sad part of my tale. During a clan feud, my dear sister and her beautiful children were killed by a hut'uun, I can't lie I took her death hard. I had a rage, an impossible anger that strangled my grief until the memory of her was just a poison in my veins and one day, I caught myself wishing that she had never existed so I’d be spared the pain of her loss. you may ask what cured it? vengeance. A Mandalorian never forgets. So I vowed to destroy those responsible and everything they held dear. It took me three years to find hunt down the group that was responsible, I left the one that killed them personally for last, so he would know fear and that fate of him. I found him concord dawn hiding like the hut'uun he was. I challenged him to a public duel. I made his death long and painful, the poison I used made every flesh wound a searing pain, no matter how small. A death by a thousand cuts. he was begging to die by the end but he wouldn't have the sweet release of death until confessed what he had done to the crowd. once he had I ended his pathetic life.
I spent most of my contacts and resources finding those responsible so once again returned to the life of a mercenary. I was hired by Clan vhett to guard a mine and train a security force. the pay was good and gave some time to think where I wanted to go from there. I was there seven months before a Sith who owned several mines nearby attacked hoping to claim it for himself by disguises his forces as Mandalorians so not be suspected. I saw through their charade and kill several of his lackeys before he challenged me to a wager. if he wins we surrender and I join the SBZ, if I win they leave and win his lightsaber. naturally, he took this offer, we fought it was a long and hard fight but I eventually lost. so now I'm a part of the Sith Empire.
Not long after I joined the Sith brotherhood it reformed into the Sith empire and SBZ reformed into the imperial legion a became a shock trooper. I want few missions before being captured by the Jedi and imprisoned but I eventually made my escape during a riot at the so-called high-security facility they transferred me too. as the next five years went by I naturally raised through the imperial ranks with my wits and cunning. to gain even more favour from Imperial Chain of Command I volunteered to train the original dark honour guard in Mandalorian fighting techniques. the dominion has labelled me dar'manda for it and also for how I continue to remain a part of the Sith Empire. I know what I am and nothing they say will change that. I am currently an admiral commanding a Task Force of six ships, four War Leviathan, one Ogre-Class Light Carrier and my own War Leviathan, the ISS Basilisk. On board, these ships 3 battalions are stationed the 102nd Marine Battalion is the only one of note also knows as the pit vipers after my name on Mandalore and my history in the fight pits of the galaxy, which is made of the 105th Marine company alongside the 79th Airborne Company is the one I personally lead.
"Any man that calls poison a woman's weapon is a traitor to his fellow men. a dagger, a blaster, a lightsaber, these are the weapons of passion but poison is cold, calculating. poison is the thought that wakes you in the morning and allows you to sleep at night. You watch your victim die a thousand times before you offer him that faithful taste. Is a man’s hate so inferior to a woman's, that he be denied such a weapon?" -
PERSONALITY
Kann Beroya is a forceful, lusty man with a quick wit and barbed tongue. He is renowned for his duels, his temper, his keen intellect, and his carnality, all of which made him extremely popular on Mandalore. Kann travelled the galaxy in his youth, his skill with a spear was enough to face off evenly against both Sith and Jedi alike. He had a very close relationship with his sister Marva and they were inseparable as children. Kann is also close to his older brother Rhurr, although their temperaments were very different. While Rhurrn had been raised to be the heir to the clan, Kann was able to indulge in the wayward ways common among the Mandalorians.
Kann is also a very intelligent man: he studied at the University of Coruscant for a year before deciding he was simply bored with a future as a doctor and left. During that time he studied poisons extensively, which he frequently coats his weapons with. He's also able to recognise that substantially heavy armour would hinder his proficiency in combat since he preferred unpredictability and agility over strength.
Above all Kann is a deeply passionate man, with a hot temper that often leads him into duels and grudges, but in equal measure, this also made him deeply loyal to those he cares about, such as his siblings and his daughters. Although he is a very serious man, he has a very laid-back, easygoing attitude, taking anything that comes his way in his stride, but he isn't incapable of being deadly serious when the situation insisted upon it.
Kann's overall attitude is that life is short, and one must enjoy all of the life's pleasures while one can - thus his libertine adventures had become infamous, and popular rumour has it that he must have bedded with half of the people he has ever met in the galaxy. Kann's philosophy in life is that he doesn't care about the negative opinions of others - he would rather live life on his own terms, openly challenging his enemies and risk destruction rather than live by someone else's rules.

VIEWS
Kann's view on "heroism" is consistent with his perception of life and what drives people in general. He strongly believes that the so-called "heroes" are no better than anyone else, as they are driven by the same force as the "ordinary" folk — their perception of themselves: Egoism To him, "heroes" are no better as the laudable deeds they perform are done, in reality, just because they want to see themselves in a certain light: They do it because they act in accordance with what they believe they have to be like. Thus the main reason for their behaviour, according to Kann, is within themselves and their perception of themselves. an example would be a Jedi who saves a shop owner from a gang, not for the sake of the poor shop owner, but for the sake of the Jedi himself, so that he can see himself in a certain light, a light of what a Jedi should be and how a Jedi should act. The same Jedi serves a "higher purpose", a purpose imposed on him by someone who is aware of manipulative methods, crafting "puppets" of their vulnerable subjects. Those "puppets" become imbued with notions of "honour", "religion", and so on. And those "puppets" are to be feared of since they don't understand what drives them
Kann's way of thinking is intertwined with his views on "heroism" and purpose of life. He strongly believes that it is high time people acknowledged that the only reason we are here is to be happy. The only goal of life is survival and pleasure, which can be done, for example, by drinking beer or simply leading an exciting lifestyle. Kann, however, does not exclude the possibility of other purposes of life, yet he seems quite convinced that this purpose is to be found neither in religion nor in "predigested philosophies".
Kann has an atypical view on romantic relationships, seeing them as a fabricated construct of society on what love should be. Although he does believe in love, he does not believe in traditional commitment. He regards that lovers should stay together out of genuine desire to do so, not because they feel they must.
