SKILLS:
Asha is an aspiring ace pilot, able to optimize most any starship after a “test run” (which usually involves a long string of dangerous stunts, maneuvers, and pressing random buttons to see what they do.)
Asha proficient with a wide variety of slugthrower and blaster technology, and can quickly learn a weapon’s capabilities by disassembling and reassembling the weapon.
Asha is a whiz with a hydrospanner. Her mum commented once that “she could make a functioning starship out of dirt and clay”.
Asha is fully trained in the art of seduction, using a mix of feminine wiles and deception to have her way past overbearing customs officials, or just anybody in particular.
Asha, though she can use heavier weapons, is most comfortable with a good old fashioned pistol at her side.
LIGHTSABER/SWORD FORMS:
None yet
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
If you take Asha out of her ship and put her into combat, you will find a scared, pretty little girl. Though she can defend herself with her trusty sidearm just fine, she really shines in the cockpit of a starship, where she can make even the oldest ship hop to life and juke out of the way of pretty much anything. Out of combat, she’s very good at getting her way with those enamored with her beauty and bearing. Her weaknesses are many, though; she’s overconfident, selfish, often even bordering on bratty, and has difficulty looking past her own needs and seeing those of others.

SHIP:
The Last Gambit
This is a pimped out bulk cruiser that has sacrificed hull space for oversized ion engines, improved shields, and three barely-legal slugthrower turrets. The Gambit looks clunky, even for the low aesthetic appeal of ships these days. At the top of its game it was a shiny new smuggling ship, outfitted with plenty of smuggling compartments, top-of-the-line engines, and top-notch weapons systems. Now, a few years later, she is held together by mesh tape and prayers, her hull is marred with countless scorches and slugthrower craters, and her engines just ain’t what they used to be. Still, she’s Asha’s beat-up piece of space debris, and it doesn’t get much better then that.

PERSONALITY:
Asha, at a glance, appears to be a dashing, tech-savvy Bothan girl with a lightning wit and a knack for everything mechanical. This is because that is exactly who she is. But that’s not all there is to know about Asha. Beneath her pretty, sugar-coated cover is a sly, manipulative scoundrel who only ever looks out for herself. She is a tremendous risk-taker who has only ever gotten as far as she has by throwing caution into the wind and going with the flow of life. It seems to have worked out with her just fine.
When she’s not up to seduction, one finds Asha to be spunky and energetic, one who doesn’t take no for an answer and never gives up. Her favorite two words in the galaxy are “why not?”, and you’d be lucky if you ever hold a conversation with her without her saying those two words. She has a weakness, however, and that's her sympathy. Though her first instinct is to watch for hers truly, she has often found herself going against her own better judgement to give a hand to the underdog.
HISTORY:
Asha Kiev’va was born the rebellious daughter to a Bothan politician. If you don’t know anything about Bothan politics, they are extremely dangerous, with coups and assassination attempts being the daily order. As such, Asha was never seen without her bodyguard droid, Zenine. Much to her chagrin, she found the droid overly protective, and never let her have any fun. She fixed that at the age of twelve by learning to temporarily shut down the droid, freeing her to haunt whatever cantinas she pleased with nobody breathing down her back – or so she thought. It wasn’t until she was sixteen when her father’s rivals caught up with her.
She was with her boyfriend at the time, a nice Bothan peace corps worker, when a team of droids materialized through the windows, under the bed, all with blasters. Her boyfriend, though he certainly could have fended off these useless excuses for battle droids, instead scooched off the bed with a slugthrower of his own. Apparently he’d taken a bribe, and Asha was to be held for ransom. She was blindfolded and thrown in a speeder headed for who-knows-where. She did escape, by detonating an ion grenade, disabling the droids and the speeder, and escaping from her crash webbing and running into the night.
This has taught her life’s harshest lesson: never trust anyone. Directly after reaching adulthood at 16, she requested her inheritance early, bought a spaceship named the Last Gambit, and blasted into the unknown! She has since earned a living – meager, but exciting – as a gunrunner off of the Alsakan crisis.
She spent a little time as an independent gunrunner, stopping regularly at the fouler ports of the galaxy. As of late, however, things have not been going her way - a bounty was placed on her head by a pirate lord after she couldn't pay off a debt, and she was forced to join up with the crew as a means of paying off her debt.
For who knows how long she was a crewmember of the pirate fleet, walkingup the grimy capital ships as little more than eye candy for the uncouth crewmen. But even that was turned upside down when a small, independent group boarded her ship to rescue one of the slaves. Seeing her opportunity, Asha helped them to escape with her and the slave, and she has blasted off once more, free to persue adventure once again...
