SPECIES: Mostly Human
AGE: 45 (assumed)
GENDER: Male
HEIGHT: 6 ft. 4 inch.

APPEARANCE:
Covax is an imposing figure. With cold dark brown eyes and resting "fuck off" face, and body of scars. He standing taller then the average human at over six feet, with a toned muscular frame even at nearly three hundred pounds.
His skin a bit like leather, bares the scares of a lifetime as a solider of fortune. A right arm with a full sleeve tattoo, mostly artistic but some appear to have been done during deployments in the FWA. The left arm is a high-end prosthetic, an emergency replacement after losing the arm on a job on Aeten. For which his left eye was also lost and replaced.
After the events leading to his capture by @Nor'baal Desilijic. Covax is rarely is public without armor, and absolutely never without his belt and a gun.
BIOGRAPHY:
The human better known as "Covax" was a bounty hunter and gun for hire during the Force Eternal ara. Orphaned as a child, Covax entered the FWA military after his eighteenth birthday. Where he would eventually become an NCO in a Commando unit before leaving military service to join Blackwell Tech to be closer to his family. Tragically, he would lose them to the outbreak of the AMS virus on Nar Shaddaa.
In the wake of his loss, the former soldier turned mercenary work. Stumbling onto a supply run gone wrong on Sorgan. As well assisting a Sith noble with family troubles. When the credits changed hangs after those jobs, Covax would also assist in Sith reclaiming an old imperial base on Tangrene.
It's believed that after Tangrene, he would have a chance encounter with several other mercenaries of a fledgling company believed to be based in Onderon. After this meeting on Deveron, the mercenary would run several jobs with now known associate Aska Ryun. Including a mining facility on Aeten II and perhaps a forgotten Sith temple on Malheion. It is on Aeten where it is believed the mercenary lost his arm.
According to witnesses. After losing his arm, Covax would be taken to see Dr. Morata. In order to save his life and replace what was lost on Aeten II. After some rehab, the mercenary returned to action. Working with Republic forces in a failed attempt to re-take the planet of Hoth. Then, it's believed he was contacted by Art Wessex, the now feared Darth Caelestis. Working with the Sith to secure the Triton system in an effort to expand the Empire.
Months later, Covax was spotted on Chandrilla. Where the imposing human once more met with the CEO of MorataCorp. Some time after this. The mercenary and his partner Aska would be contacted by none other then famed gunslinger for Zaa Fenn, Preef Callo. That connection would lead to the pair assisting in the assassination of Durr the Hutt.
It is believed by many that Preef made Covax an Enforcer for the Zaa Fenn after the hit on Durr. Just before the Rodian's believed demise at the hands of Darth Andruil. The position would be temporary however. As Preef's sudden exit caused a power vacuum in the Zaa Fenn. The fallout of which culminating in a statement to the galaxy.
As the galaxy prepared to not only aid the Mon Cala but also raise the largest bounty ever seen to bring it's assassin to justice. Covax and Aska would be taking into custody on Coruscant. Where it is believed they met with high ranking galactic officials to discuss the capture of @Gareth Gin. However, the records of their being on Coruscant that day have gone missing. Both living and electronic. That meeting aside. Covax did collect a large portion of the bounty for Gin. Thus it confirming he was part of the team that captured the most wanted man in the galaxy.
The largest score of his career, Covax would attempt to take his money and retire (First Attempt). However, a young and dumb group of thugs disturbed the peace on his new home planet. Forcing the human to return from retirement. The Consortium now dealt with. Covax went back to work. Using the funds from the Gin job and the (unknown to all but Aska) deal made with Emryc Thorne, Covax would take control of the remaining assets of ZF. Then Strike a deal with the Hutt Cartel to reclaim his title within the Syndicates. As well as the power it came with.
Now armed with money and reputation, the Syndicate Vanguard then attempted to make an alliance with the Omega faction of Crimson Dawn. In an effort to gain allies, during the collapse of the agreement of the Five Syndicate Cartels. The meeting was a failure. However, Covax was inspired by the Omega leader @Terra Lanris.
With the help of Julia Hypori, the now crime boss and businessman left the primarily Hutt controlled Outer Rim for the CorpSec. There, he would start Tenloss Interstellar. With credits flowing, he build a droid army using Blackwell Tech's finest. With those moves established, Tenloss would take it's first contract in the Juvex Sector. This "contract" would lead to the conception of the mercenary's estranged son, Dante.
Galactic records would loose the mercenary softly after Juvex. The rumors around the criminal underworld in the Outer Rim are that Covax assisted somehow in the apparent demise of Darth Draugr on Nal Hutta. Then, for reasons only known to the Hutt Cartel. He could be taken prisoner perhaps in Carbonite.
SKILLS:
A modern era Cad Bane in his hayday. Covax is a highly trained soldier turned soldier of fortune. With a literal lifetime spent training and applying his trade. The human mercenary is a master at the application of violence and the tools to inflict it. The many jobs taken, working with or for some of the most feared and powerful from across the galaxy. From Sith Lords to Jedi knights, gunslingers and living legends. Learning from them all along the way.
