Warden Lambow (Jedi) / House Hoth of Clan Odan-Urr [SA: V] [INQ: IV] PIN: 3155
Sashla Di
Independant Arms Dealer
Unaffiliated
Togruta Female, Right-handed.
Height: 1.57 meters / 5' 2"
Weight: 47.63 Kg / 105 lb
Age: 32
Physical Description:
Sashla Di is slightly shorter than the average female Togruta, but she'll always play that off as the byproduct of a training accident during her time in the as-yet undefined military force of some government or the other. Of an golden orange skin tone, contrasted with intelligent pale blue eyes, makes her striking to some. Her lekku, with the same base golden color, was alternately striped with a pale blue, matching her eye tone. The pattern of the blue on the lekku was somewhat more distinctive than most, covering more surface area on the lekku than the golden coloring in a diamond pattern.
Her body has retained her athletic form, quite lithe and agile, with some muscle definition on the top half, due to her constant ongoing physical activities moving cargo around and generally overall ensuring that she keeps up her physical fitness routine. Many have called her attractive, much to her distaste.
Usually attired in nondescript utility jumpsuits, she always has a pair of pistols mounted to her gunbelt, and usually some sort of body armor worn underneath, as this has saved her life on a few occasions with some rough customers and competitors.
Preferred Weapons:
A pair of WESTAR-35 blaster pistols usually ride on her hip mounted holsters, with plenty of power packs. The only modification they have are each a holographic sight which helps to aid in distance shooting.
Sashla also believes in carrying backup blades, since they don’t run out of ammo. She usually also carries a machete strapped to her back, and has a pair of hidden blade bracers strapped to her arms for close in work.
History
Dutiful Daughter
Sashla grew up in a traditionally military service oriented family. Virtually all of her family members either serve or have served in various military organizations. When it came time to choose her higher education it really wasn’t a choice at all. She enrolled in the local military academy which had graduated members of the Di family for generations. As expected, she graduated with high honors with her choice of assignments. She chose service with a secretive group on a planet called Salas V. They promised to hire her in a planetary protection officer position, and they came through on their promise despite her initial misgivings. As she grew in experience and started to gain recognition for her service she was recruited as an undercover officer. There, she disappeared for approximately five years.
Black Ops
Starting service in undercover operations, the secretive group that had hired her gave her more undercover and paramilitary special operations training. Eventually she learned that she had been hired by the elusive House Revan, and was recruited as an operative in one of their Echo cells. Proud to be surrounded by true professionals that respected her talents instead of seeing her as just another pretty face, she gave her all to the group, eventually reaching the rank of Major. Unfortunately a short time later the Raken Protocol had been enacted, disbanding the House and all operations. For the first time in her adult life, Sashla was on her own.
Turning a New Leaf…. Or Did She?
Being on her own, surviving initially on her savings and some credits gifted to her in recognition of her work, she went into business on her own. Having an innate knowledge of how the shadowy world of secret operations worked, and the tools and techniques of the trade, she picked a specialty niche weapons and gear market and slowly but surely started to make a name for herself. Proving that she was just more than a pretty face, she ruthlessly eliminated those that crossed her and proved to be an honest trader, and a stickler for contracts. Soon enough her business started to boom. She intentionally farmed out business at times to friendly competitors, both to keep a lower profile but also gaining their trust and respect. This also enabled her to have time to engineer her business to be mainly self sustaining. She wasn’t in it for insane profits, she just wanted enough to maintain a comfortable lifestyle. This outlook gave her a measure of ability to pick and choose whom she did business with, and often refused to do business with pirates or other groups that used horrific tactics to reach their goals.
All of this was proceeding quite nicely until she got a very quiet inquiry as to her status and a gentle prodding to suggest that she move her base of operations to a new sector, provided to her by a former friend and contact from her Revan days. Being as her base of operations was mobile anyway, she didn’t hesitate and moved, thus establishing base in the tropical paradise city of Baime, Solyiat, in the Kiast System. There she settled in a bit more permanently, ironically dealing in weapons in a tourist city. There she stayed until she was contacted, gathering intel and information to pass along to her contacts.
Aspects
General:
We Must Protect This House!
Sashla, a product of decades of close knit training with her peers, firmly believed in the brotherhood of the fellow persons she served with. Having no family of her own, these people became her surrogate family. She saw honor, respect, and a challenge in being the silent blade that cut down threats to the public before they even knew the threat even existed.
Bothans Do It From Behind
Due to the many years of service in special operations, the need to stay hidden has stayed with her and served her well. She prefers to hide in the shadows, and always have several escape routes ready.
Personality
Outside the Box
Special operations is a place for creative solutions to unique problems. Sashla had that in spades.
Universal Soldier
Being at the tip of the spear constantly, she grew in skill, but at the cost of alienating many friends, oftentimes subjugating friendships for the next mission.
Combat
Tiny, but Fierce
Constantly fending off attackers and drunk pretenders to her heart, she’s had her share of projecting a no-nonsense image, and often backing that up with sheer combat skill. Slights to her skill because of her looks often burns her, and she then uses that in combat, but the constant need to keep up appearances is very draining emotionally.
Always Prepared
Sashla is a firm believer in knowing all the tools of the trade, if just have a passing familiarity with a weapons system or combat style. A true master of none, she knows enough about everything to be a threat with pretty much anything, even her bare appendages. She constantly practices to keep her skill sets sharp and honed.
