Personality and Appearance​

"The galaxy calls for wetwork, and I answer it...No greater good...No just cause..."

Tiral Bralor is a quiet, confident Mandalorian. While he is a man of extremely few words by choice, his actions often speak louder. His professional attitude remains at the forefront of any encounter with him, with a strong sense of keeping one's word the most obvious. When he makes a promise, he keeps it. Be it accepting a contract for a hunt, forging a piece of armour or securing a rescue for a stranded Guild member, Tiral makes sure it happens. He keeps to the traditions of duty ingrained in most of Mandalorian society, and thinks very little of oathbreakers.

He possesses a fierce temper, although it takes much to stoke it. More often than not, he is quite likely to simply quick-draw one of his pistols to end an argument than to use words to diffuse the situation, as it tends to be more persuasive.

Appearence wise, were Tiral out of his armour he would blend into a crowd with little diffculty. His outward appearance is one of "average" were it summed up into a single word. Of slightly above average human height and average weight and build, he can easily become an everyman with a simple change of clothes, although his haircut, being cut as close to the scalp as possible, may be a give away, as would the handful of small scars on his face, although none are truly distinctive.

When clad in his armour, Tiral strikes a faceless, imposing figure of menace. Festooned with trophies, damage and weaponry, he is the typical outwardly brutish Mandalorian popularised by holo-dramas. His armour is scorched to the bare metal in many places, with the remains of carbon scoring from blaster fire giving way to the former cream and black paintjob it sported. There is also the telltale damage of a lightsaber in various places, mostly along the chest plates and gut plate. He carries numerous trophies from successful hunts in his younger days, ranging from wookiee braids, Trandoshan scalps and more, up to and including a pair of battered, half-destroyed Lightsabers, clearly inoperable due to the damage.

Background​

Tiral's life up until the point of the reinvigorated Sith revival has been one of bloody violence. As a Mandalorian from a distinguished clan, Tiral quickly earned a place amongst the Protectors at a young age, displaying an aptitude for combat and tracking, as well as smithing armour, learning the secrets of Mandalorian smithing. Although, as the years wore on, he grew increasingly disillusioned with the person to whom his fealty was sworn to, until eventually Tiral resigned his position and went on his own way.

He quickly delved into the morally grey world of bounty hunting and excelled. His skills as a tracker, alongside stacking his engagements in his favour, led to him quickly earning a dark and impressive reputation amongst the underworld of the galaxy, able to bring down any target. This reputation was cemented when he brought in the known Outer Rim despot, Terl the Verbose, a man to whom three systems were under thrall. Tiral hunted and eventually captured him alive, handing him over to the Hutt Clans for a grisly fate best left undescribed.

Amongst his other prestigious hunts include the Blade Edge pirate gang, killed in a single night of violence in a dingy cantina on Tatooine, the Trandoshan Murder-Cult's Patriarch, Dratossk, killed over a month-long hunt in the gloomy under-forest of Kashyyyk, and taking down the Razormaw Twins, a pair of brutal slaver Gammoreans who terrorized the Outer Rim Territories. All of these, among a long and bloody list, established Tiral Bralor amongst his Bounty Hunting peers, with membership in the Guild coming smoothly.

At some point however, Tiral tried to settle down with someone, start a family. It did not end well, as disagreements over how their child, a young daughter, should be raised sparked an eventual unhappy end to the relationship. He took his daughter back to Concordia, to try and raise her as he was raised. This short but happy period to his life was ended abruptly when the Jedi Order came to claim his daughter, informed of her Force Sensitivity by the now estranged mother. The exact events of this meeting are unrecorded, but it is known that it ended in a brutal running firefight that spanned four days and nights that left Tiral bloodied and near-dead, and two Jedi Knights dead.

After this incident, with his daughter kidnapped by the Jedi Order, whom he did track down but did nothing of it years later, Tiral threw himself into his work, training new bounty hunters for the days ahead. His loyalty to family and his people, the Mandalorians, however, are as iron.

Abilities​

Tiral has a very narrow scope to his abilities and skills. He will never be a great thinker, pondering the deep mysteries of the Force, or a great builder of grand cities. He is a violent, near-barbarian killer and as such, the majority of his skill set reflects his. He is a skilled gunslinger, with a lightning quick fast-draw of his customised blaster pistols and has little remorse in using them. A moderately skilled hand to hand combatant as well, although Tiral prefers to fight at range where possible. Like most Protectors, Tiral is skilled in the use of the jetpack and the fighting style it requires to get the most out of it.

His skills at tracking are undeniable, his gut instincts and intuition often the result of seemingly random or impulsive arcs of thought or observation. He attributes this down as "Just felt right" and thinks little of it.

Tiral is also one of the handful of master Mandalorian Smiths, able to forge durable and iconic body armour and weapons using methods that cannot be replicated by any machine. His hand crafted armour and personal weapons are testament to his skill.

[Diva]

My first instinct is imagining Diva liking Tiral a lot, compeletely in spite of, and partially due to, his objections.
