STRENGTH:
Orion’s strength can be described as below average. His many other duties do not leave him with time to tune his physique.

DEXTERITY:
Orion is able to react quickly enough to most situations, although it is nothing extraordinary. He is however, his hands are very quick when operating ship controls and systems.

CONSTITUTION:
Physical health is something important to every individual in the galaxy, and although Orion is in no sense frail, he couldn’t be described with the phrase “tough as nails”. His body can handle regular injuries and ailments, but nothing too extreme.

INTELLIGENCE:
Orion is extremely smart. His intelligence allows him to retain every piece of information gained and understand new concepts almost immediately. One of the things he prides himself on, he loves showing others they are inferior to him.

WISDOM:
Raised to be the leader of his people, Orion’s family paid for the best education and mentors that money could buy. He was very well educated and has knowledge of almost every science and field of study, although he has not specialized. His judgment is amazing, using his experiences and knowledge to his advantage, he can dissect any situation.

CHARISMA:
Orion himself has a fairly welcoming demeanor; however where his attractiveness and charm really come from is his Falleen heritage. He is able to naturally secrete pheromones that bend the wills of others, luring them to him, causing them to hang on his every word. In addition, the very appearance of Falleen is aesthetically pleasing to other species.​

SKILLS:

• Logistics – Maintaining an admiralty requires an efficiency worthy of the Emperor, and Vorsch does not overlook this. While many officers leave the duties of supply, repair, and transport to their executive officers, Vorsch sees to many of these tasks himself.
• Tactical Command – The admiral is able to command both fleets and personnel in combat situations.
• Optimization – Although not always necessary, Vorsch is able to quickly identify and optimize the systems of any ship under his command, sacrificing efficiency in other systems for a peak performance from others. He can accomplish this either by performing the required operations himself or instructing others to do so.
• Defensive Specialty – Admiral Vorsch has an amazing knack for retaining his fleets integrity and safety while tactically dismantling enemy forces. He is able to execute these defensive operations both when assaulting and defending in fleet to fleet combat.
• Sidearms – Admiral Vorsch looks down on officers that cannot efficiently defend themselves in combat, and so has trained in the use of his officer’s sidearm.
• General Ship Knowledge – As Vorsch spends much of his time maintaining and commanding a fleet of his lord Emperor’s ships, he knows and understands most of their systems and operation capabilities.

GEAR:
Phrik Vest – A very light protective vest that protects the Admiral from torso directed blaster fire, slugthrowers, and explosions. Worn beneath his officer’s uniform.

Personal Shield – An energy shield that is integrated into his Phrik Vest to provide cover for the unit. This shield further protects Vorsch from detonations and fire.

Code Cylinder – Admiral Vorsch carries with him a code cylinder that holds extremely privilidged information and access codes. The cylinder was encrypted by the best security specialists in the Empire, and if the wrong key is provided even once, the cylinder self detonates. (The detonation is only enough to destroy the cylinder, not cause bodily harm.)

Repeating Blaster Pistol – The Admiral’s personal sidearm is created using expensive materials. The weapon is nickel plated, and collapses to form a rectangle shaped object on the rear of his belt.

HC-22 Comlink - A comlink specially designed for long range communications, the Admiral carries this with him to ensure he may issue orders regardless of his current location.

Distress Beacon – Although the Admiral is confident he will never be stranded or fall into enemy hands, he carries a small distress beacon, capable of notifying out of system forces of his position. It broadcasts at a minimal rate, and would be recognized as atmospheric interference by unknowing operators. The beacon may be placed anywhere, or carried with him.

Description: The personal flagship of Admiral Orion Vorsch, The Emperor’s Hand is the pride of his fleet. Preferring the heavier frame of the Vicious-class, Admiral Vorsch elected to use this class of ship instead of the newer Tribal-class. This ship is known throughout by its name, as it is sent wherever the Empire’s interests are greatest, or when the situation is direst. Admiral Vorsch ordered the ship modified, removing much of the cargo capacity in order to sustain higher grade weapons and shields, the ships ground force has degraded as a result.



PERSONALITY:
Admiral Vorsch’s personality can be described with two words. Cold and concise. His loyalty to the Hutt Empire, more specifically Emperor Tusa, is beyond words. Part of what makes him such an amazing officer is that his heart is truly in his cause. He believes that the words of the Emperor are law, and any who refuse them or doubt them are traitors to the Empire, and punishes them accordingly. He can be labeled as an arrogant individual, although his arrogance is not unfounded. Orion believes himself to be superior to other commanders, and will not deny this fact to any who ask.

Outside of duty, which is a rare occurrence, Vorsch has a somewhat welcoming demeanor, though he retains his aura of confidence. He enjoys very expensive luxuries, and is a patron of art.

BIOGRAPHY:
Born into the royal family of Falleen, Orion’s younger life was lived with many luxuries and privilidges. He was born into a family very closely related to the current king, and it was believed that he could very possibly be the next heir. Knowing this, his family saw fit to provide him with the best, and most expensive, education money or power could buy. Orion was raised never having to lift a finger of his own, having everything provided before him, others waiting on him hand and foot. This instilled in him at a young age a sort of arrogance. The fact that he was very intelligent and well educated did not help to quell this state of mind either.

When Orion had completed is education, the king of Falleen’s rule was close to an end. The king was very old, and it was believed he would die within the year. Two primary candidates for the throne were known to the citizens of Falleen, Orion, and another royal from another family named O’tuunda. Unfortunately for Orion, O’tuunda had just as large of a support base from the rest of the noble families on Falleen. Civil strife and small scale war broke out amongst the rivaling families. Skirmishes broke out in the streets daily, resulting in deaths on both sides. A defector within Orion’s own family revealed to O’tuunda that the Vorschs would be holding a political meeting in a confidential location. O’tuunda had the building bombed into the ground on the day of the meeting, killing everyone inside. By a miraculous stroke of luck, Orion was late for the meeting, and informed by an assistant of what had occurred. O’tuunda seized the crown, and declared Orion an enemy of the state.

Forced to flee Falleen, Orion was smuggled off world by those who had supported him. He was taken to a planet that was believed to be out of O’tuunda’s reach, Nal Hutta. They believed that O’tuunda would not dare attempt to operate on a Hutt world, and they were right. Orion was left on Nal Hutta alone with little more than personal possessions. Nal Hutta was where he encountered Tusa the Hutt, and where a deep loyalty would begin. Tusa’s reached everywhere on Nal Hutta, and Orion’s refugee arrival on the planet was not unknown to him. He had him captured, and brought before him. Seeking able minds and bodies for his cartel, Tusa offered asylum to Orion within his organization. Orion accepted gladly, and began working for Tusa.

Tusa took care of Orion when he needed aid the most. Though Tusa may not have seen it as a display of mercy, Orion did. Orion’s loyalty to Tusa developed into a personal code. In Orion’s mind, Tusa had saved him from a life on the run and with scum. Instead of living that life, Tusa gave him the life he believed he deserved, on filled with luxury and servants. This was of course after Orion had proven his loyalty and competence.

When Tusa began gaining control of ships, he gave Orion command of several, testing his naval ability. Orion excelled beyond Tusa’s hopes. He displayed amazing tactical skills, and a knack for ship systems. Tusa began giving Orion more and more responsibilities, and when he had officially taken over, he offered him an admiralty, which Orion accepted.

Admiral Vorsch is currently one of Tusa’s most trusted admirals, and his loyalty and fervor cannot be questioned.
