Personality
Nature: By nature a somewhat reflective introvert, Zendosh’s career in the corporate sector has developed an acumen for rapid cognization in dealing with people and situations. Unconciously, a bit of a class/race snob, but by no means xenophobic.
Habbits: Womanizer, “Problem Drinker”, indulges in gambling and spice
Strengths: Perceptive, exudes aura of being in control, maybe even a step ahead… level of close-range combat training.
Weaknesses and character flaws: Many Vices. Personal demons have led to crippling self-doubt in both worth and character. Professional overconfidence, however, leads him to view opponents and adversaries as “marks”. In personal life, commitment-phobe, and seeming casual disregard for friends and associates in matters suiting his interests.
Hobbies: Gambling, Politics, Tetan history, Amateur Gardener
Optimist or Pessimist: Pessimism runs deep, but aquaintances are likely to encounter an optimistic front
Talents: Expert Bluffer, proficient with small arms and dual short blades, quick thinker
Introvert or Extrovert: Personally introverted, professionally extroverted
Good Characteristics: Savvy, fun to be around, polite, intelligent
Mode of Transportation: Corporate ships, frequently charters public transport
Drives and Motives: Zendosh is haunted by his family’s deep roots and traditions in Krath practice, which is percieved in his home system as a revered ancient religion, but is regarded by most republic worlds as a Sith cult. He certainly feels the call in his blood, but his corporate and interstellar dealings demonize it and have all but ruled out any personal association with, essentially, his heritage. If the religion of the ancients of his homeworld is, in fact, evil, he is driven to make something of himself outside of any tradition or knowledge of the Krath.
Assets
Ships owned: Conglomeration of family and business owned vessels
Property owned: Though perhaps they are truly owned by his father, he can claim substantial ownings and stakes in much property on both Empress Teta and Kirrek, as well as being an executive officer in the largest mining company on Empress Teta.
Appearance: Very cosmopolitan, in a corporate sector way. Has a habit of getting his hair cut too short, then afterwards letting it grow too long. Toys with a short beard from time to time.
Clothes: Superficial, lavish tastes, but always conservative
Accessories: Dual shortblades, similar to vibroskivs, and an ancestors’ holy Krath medallion
In Battle
Weapons: proficient in close range dual shortblade and hand to hand combat, marginally less so with a custom Ze Viran blaster, it really hasn’t seen much use…
Interrelation with others
How Is He Percieved By Others?: Somewhat arrogant. Outwardly, he can be friendly and courteous, but he does not mask any underlying snobbishness nearly as well as he thinks he does.
Friends: Outside of distant business associates, none to speak of… at least not in this part of the republic…
Relationships To Other Characters: YTD
Goals
Characters Ultimate Goal: To make a name for himself outside of the dark shadow that lingers over his race, culture, and family. He also has designs on attempting to trace the ancient Sith connection to the Krath teachings. This, however, seems more than he is capable of, at least presently, and is most certainly a dark path to follow for someone not particularly gifted with any special amount of strength of will.
How Does Character Plan To Accomplish Goal?: He has suspended all of his dealings and interests in Tetan space, and has taken a journey toward Coruscant in search of different perspective, and maybe a change in focus. It seems to be very much a journey bourne of privledged boredom and folly, but he does, for his part, take it seriously. He intends to keep an ear to the ground for whispers of “Sith Magic”, and then charge into whatever snakepit, or hornets nest the tale could lead to.
How Will Other Characters Be Affected? YTD; ostensibly, they shouldn’t, unless perhaps someone has something to hide…
Background
History
Zendosh Ze Viran was born, and in fact has spent the majority of his life in Cinnagar, on the planet Empress Teta, in the Empress Teta system. The second son and youngest child of Tetan nobility, societal structure demanded next to nothing from him for the better part of his life, one spent in unfettered luxury. His father, Kaushik, owns a large, muli-interest corparation based out of Cinnagar, and has dabbled in planetary politics, as one of the heads of the royalist opposition party, the TSR, or Tetan Societal Republicans. Unbeknownst to all but a few, however, the TSR is a Krath revivalist and expansionist organization, with an agenda of once again developing a foothold within Tetan space for the Old Ways. After Zendosh’s older brother’s death in an organized crime-related fall from a building, Zendosh, in a new position of authority within his father’s corporation, became aware of the true motivations of the TSR, and his father. He confronted his father, as the Empress Tetan Royalist government does have loose laws regarding the practice of any Krath rituals, in response to which, his father was motivated to reveal to Zendosh the depths of his families roots within the High Holy Priesthood Caste of the Krath. This information resonated within Zendosh as being absolutely true, in fact seeming, to fill some dark, empty space within him, yet nonetheless repulsed his sensibilities, for tales of Krath atrocities for centuries. Things had changed, and within a few listless months, he found himself making plans to leave Cinnagar for an indeterminate while, hoping to find a place for himself, and traces of the legacy of the Krath in known space.
Type of Childhood
Zendosh is the youngest child of Kaushik and Maryan Vas Ze Viran, the second son and fifth child of one of the planets oldest noble familys. Culture dictated that his fathers attention be placed on the first son, his older brother Sev, so as three sisters largely dictated the time of their mother, his upbringing was left largely up to servants of the Vas Ze Viran family. During their planetary summer cycles, the boys were sent to nearby Kirrek, were the Royalist militia held essentially boy’s military camps, where students were rigorously instructed in small arms training, hand to hand combat, and given their first experiences with traditional Tetan varieties of medium armors. A good student and avid reader, nonetheless Zendosh developed an intrinsic laziness and fascination with all manner of vice, primarily gambling. His later teen years saw him develop a reputation as quite the sportsman at school, in fact there was discussion of a career in sports, but ultimately the simple fact that he didn’t have to won out.
