I've had a few Arkanians, Astria replied, shrugging her shoulders in indifference. There brains didn't taste any different from anyone else's. Thoughts drifting back to those times when Arkanian soup had been on the menu, Astria couldn't help but let her lips curl into smirk. But knowing what I...

Of course the Sneevel would be named Mister Kronk. What other kind of name could a Sneevel possibly have? Maybe something like Biff or Og. Maybe a fancy one might be named Cletus. Astria hadn't even met one yet and she was already annoyed with their mere existence. Not something that boded very...

When Terra had mentioned a plan to get some real mining operations going on Omega again, of course Astria had been all in. It was a great idea for a multitude of reasons, chief among them that they'd be producing their own product at least in some capacity. That meant even higher profit margins...

There were times in life where you needed to take calculated risks. Where doing what you normally did, making the safe play, wasn’t what was going to propel you forward. Complacency was a disease that could infect anyone and it was just as fatal as getting shot in the face. As her ship dipped...

Some people might have found Galek's ostentatiousness annoying or off-putting but Astria didn't mind. While she didn't dial it up to eleven in the same way that the Senator did, she did have a penchant for finer things and didn't mind showing off that fact. Though, generally speaking, Astria did...

Depends on what you consider a lot, Astria said with a bit of a smirk, exiting the speeder and eyeing the outside of the base and noticing a row of swoop bikes parked outside. They had blood pack symbols on them. Also depends on your definition of assassination. Leaning against a wall, Astria's...

Under general circumstances, Astria would have never agreed to meet someone on their private ship in the middle of dead space. Given the type of people that ran in her circles, it would be the most clear and obvious trap in the history of time. But this meeting was different - or at least...

Astria's airspeeder slipped through the skyways of Mondder, blending in with the local traffic quite easily in the more affluent part of town she was heading for. Recently, Astria had started making some moves to expand her wealth and influence, but she felt a little constrained. It seemed like...

You really need to learn to speak Huttese. Astria said, before reaching into her jacket and pulling out a small ear piece. Translator, so you can at least understand what we're talking about. As they made their way back to Verang, Astria's mind hung on what Terra had said just a few moments ago...

I've outlived most of my contacts, Astria said with just a hint of humor. Another joke, or at least her own style of humor. But there is always another waiting just behind them. My web runs deep because I've had more than eighty years to craft it. It was one of the small yet numerous benefits...

Astria's nostrils flared ever so slightly in offense to Terra's last comment. Standing to her feet, she narrowed her eyes before speaking. A person is nothing without their word, She said icily. The partnership has already failed if we do not have at least a sapling of mutual trust. Astria...

I do not think even they know what they are preparing for, Astria said, her nose curling like she'd just smelled something horrible. She had a particular distaste for most outside of the Crimson Dawn. They move their dejarik pieces without looking at the rest of the board. Taking a long drag of...

Astria didn't interrupt Terra as she spoke. She simply sat there and listened, sipping idly at the liquor in her glass. Astria's expression would remain neutral and stony, not betraying the whizzing gears of her mind as she mulled over the proposition the Tiefling had brought her. At a thousand...

The thumping music of the club was nothing but far away white noise to Astria as she sat alone at her private table, eyes fixated on her phone. She was reading the latest income reports for Afterlife and the images displayed on the screen produced nothing but annoyed grimaces from her. Things...
