Capsule:
Vakir’sa’jaina is a “Red Nikto,” of the Kajain’sa’Nikto race. He was born in the dark caverns of a Hutt-controlled Nikto enclave on the world of Nal Hutta. Raised completely subservient to Hutts, he was more or less freed of the their influence when he was given, along with several others, to the Empire to serve it and—more importantly—spy on it. Having left Nal Hutta, his eyes were opened to the galaxy. He wanted more.

Not long after being transferred to Dressel—an Imperial-held planet—he escaped with several other beings on an outbound dry goods freighter. The Dresselian who helped them all escape was about to go his own way when Vakir asked that he be allowed to follow. At first, the Dresselian was negative, even threatening, but allowed Vakir to follow. After many years of invaluable help to each other, they decided to admit to their friendship.

Capsule:
Oro had many misgivings when the Red Nikto he helped escape asked to join him. After all, he hated other beings. Completely. He was a loner, and wanted it to stay that way. Vakir, however, was insistent. The two fought in broken Basic for three hours before Oro finally went to a cantina in disgust.

His elders insisted he go and find the Rebel Alliance, in order to learn better fighting techniques from them, then he was supposed to return and help fight the Imperials in guerilla warfare. Oro was to meet his contact in the cantina. Unfortunately when he arrived he found himself in the middle of a blaster fight. The Nikto jumped forward and knocked out one being who was about to level his blaster on Oro. After the fight, Oro found his contact dead in a corner.

With no way to continue his mission, he finally agreed to let Vakir join up with him, for one mission only, to get enough money to go away.

Several hundred missions later, Oro finally had to agree that what started out as a barely tolerable relationship was now a firm union. They still have their moments, however, as they are both very independent.

Capsule:
Scrud was a very disgruntled droid. Despite GalactiCore’s efforts and numerous memory wipes, they still couldn’t change its basic programming. Scrud was designed for gathering data on the battlefield, not spying and playing holocam for meetings. It was made for war, not illegal actions. Its weapon arms were removed long ago. Scrud was, if anything, bored.

Then he was paired with a Nimbanel who was chasing a wayward client of GalactiCore. Unfortunately. the client was fast and dangerous. Realizing it would lose if it fought, Scrud instead ran for safer ground. Surprisingly, it found itself on the same ship as the deadly human. The human later proved to be safe and, for the first time, he was used in a covert mission of major import. Scrud received its new name from the Dresselian, Oro.

Special Abilities:

Short-Range Communication:
Weequays of the same clan are capable of communicating with one another through complex pheromones. Aside from Jedi sensing abilities, no other species are known to be able to sense this form of communication. This form is as complex and clear to them as speech is to other species.

Capsule:
Head of the Dnalvec Mllltia for several years, it was unsurprising that he became a Weequay clan leader. As his popularity grew, he became recognized as the ambassador for all the Weequay clans. All his life, he spoke of an end of the Weequay-Houk conflict. Soon after he was made ambassador, he insisted the war between Weequays and Houks be ended. It was Aaregil who proudly shook the hand of the Speaker for the Lijuter Congress—administration of the Houk—after the signing of the Weequay-Houk Alliance Pact.

Capsule:
When Rendra was ready to start her new life as a gun-for-hire, her ex-employer and friend told her to get the best ship she could because it would become her life’s blood. Not one to do things halfway, she bought a fresh-from-the-factory 720 from an honest salesman. She also hired a pair of factory workers to modify the freighter to suit her needs. All of this custom work was expensive—the ship cost her over 100,000 credits when everything was tallied. She took out a loan from GalactiCore, knowing it would take her years to pay it off. After she met Nopul, he used his amazing slicing skills to pull a little extra from the sensors. Her ship has become her permanent home.
