Jester

Annileen Vhett, refereed to by most as "Jester", was a human female soldier turned bounty hunter who lived during the Force Eternal era. Born and raised on a farming community, she joined the local militia at a young age to protect her younger brother, who had been drafted in due to a lack of volunteers. She lost her arm in the same assault that resulted in his death, an incident that left her broken in more than one way. Left to deal with the guilt of his death and too ashamed to meet her parents, she stayed a soldier for as long as the war lasted, before leaving to ultimately take up arms in the private sector to begin working first as a mercenary and then a bounty hunter.

Biography

Born on a farming community in the Outer Rim, hailing from descendants of Concord Dawn who might have once been affiliated with the new Mandalorians, Annileen was raised to some day take over the family homestead. She dreamed of settling down on the farm and marrying her childhood sweetheart, but those dreams were shattered when her younger brother was picked in the random draft to join the local governor's army to help put down the rebellions that had been welling up across the planet. Fearing for his life, Annileen joined as well to protect him and bring him back. Having always been good with a weapon and been the one that helped her father defend the farm from local wildlife and raiders, in stark contrast to her pacifistic and scholarly brother, she promised her parents that she would look after her brother and bring him back when their mandated years of service were done.

But the fates were not kind to her, for a year before they were to return from their service her brother was killed in a particularly brutal assault. A rash charge behind enemy lines to rescue him left Annileen without her right arm. By then she had shown enough skill as a soldier to have risen through the ranks, and was deemed important enough to be provided with sufficient medical treatment and a prosthetic replacement for the arm she had lost. But she also had the option to simply return home, where her family would have to deal with the cost of her recovery. Not willing to incur a financial strain on her family that she knew they could now put up with, she refused to return home and extended her draft to stay with the military. While this was the reason why she claimed when everyone asked her, the true reason was her inability to face her parents after having failed to save her brother. The shame and disgust she felt towards herself was too much for her.

She served for another rotation, and when the time finally came for her to end her service, she again opted against returning home and took up a former platoon leader's offer to join her company of mercenaries. She worked with her for a few years before striking out on her own, taking work where it came to her and living life from one fight to another. Finally, tired of the life, she got in touch with an old friend who had long ago offered her some work bounty hunting. So began the next chapter in her life, as she set out to join the Bounty Hunters Guild.

Personality

Rarely seen without a grin on her face, Jester tries to hide the pain and guilt that lies within her from the world. She thinks that showing the world how she really feels would be a further admittance of her failures and wants to leave her past behind her as best as she can. She is a prankster and generally cheerful, even if it is nothing more than a facade since the death of her brother, which earned her the nickname that has stuck with her ever since. She is fair and level headed, and tries her best to do what she thinks is right. But at the same time she is no saint, and has moment of weakness when she puts herself above others.

Abilities

Jester learned how to fight at a young age, helping her father defend their farm and also brawling with local kids. She was good at it, but never had opportunity to develop that skill till she joined the military. She has since mastered the art of combat, or at least as much as someone with her age and experience can. She has a lot of hands on knowledge about living off the land, both from her time on the farm and in the military. A prosthetic arm replaced the one she lost. She is not Force Sensitive.

@Wit The only thing I see as an issue on the account is the line about the prosethic arm being a useful weapon in a brawl. Most base prosthethis are not actually combat-rated to give any sort of boost in hitting or stopping power. If you wanted to work for a tech plot for an advanced prosthesis that would be an option.

Oh, I meant that in the sense that a metal fist vs skin and bones. Isn't meant to be any advantage. But I see your point. Editing to just get rid of that.

This is what happens with getting too hyped and rushing in to post characters. :P

Edit: Fixed.
