BIOGRAPHY:
Tova, born on Tatooine, grew up to a human father and an Echani mother. Growing up, he knew of the waste land he was raised in. The absence of a governing body opened the door to planetary ruin. He learned the ways of the Echani warriors and hoped to make his parents proud. The many people in his village were a diverse of different races and even formed their own community school. The village consisted of farmers, tradesmen, and engineers. He learned how to speak Huttese in addition to basic. He learned many things due to the diversity of his village. Among these things were blaster cleaning and maintenance, blaster modification, speeder repair, farming, security detail and strategies, and first aid.

His mother taught him Echani martial arts and his father taught him weight training. Combining the two, he formed somewhat of an altered form to adapt to his large muscles which he gained from farming and training. The land they farmed consisted of about 10 acres of land which used technologically advanced equipment they used to make the land fertile and more inhabitable. His family took great pride in what they did. The community even went out of their way to teach self defense to the younglings and how to fire a blaster rifles which became really helpful fighting off natives and criminals. Many of the others learned task that were taught by their parents. Others, like Tova explored many fields and became well versed in different trades.

At the age of 14, he was taking as an apprentice engineer. Three years he spent working in the privately owned spaceport. Working on ships seemed like a dream. There was nothing greater than working on ships of all kinds. It was a pleasure being able to work with the equipment and ship upgrades. He enjoyed seeing how the ships worked and took every opportunity he could watching others work learning the trade. Many individuals came through the space from bounty hunters to rebels of all kinds. Even though he enjoyed meeting new people, he grew to dislike the ways of the people he met. Tatooine had become worse and worse every rotation. He believed something should be down about it. Thus far, no one had the nerve to even address the issues. The citizens were left to fix their own problem, but it would take massive forces to deal with said problems.

At the age of 21, he took up work as a bodyguard for a smuggler that used to visit the spaceport he apprenticed in. He guarded this guy for about a year and a half until he got fed up with the work. It was dull and lifeless. Too much underground stuff and it always seemed to backfire. After giving his servitude working and living on a frigate, he traveled back to Tatooine. He needed something to do. Others would have jumped at the chance to work anywhere on the planet, but that would have consisted of working in crime rings and he wasn’t about that life. After searching for work, he discovered a group of individuals that had spunk and wanted change on Tatooine under the name Tatooine Expeditionary Force. He joined them looking for fun and adventure. He also hoped to make a difference on his homeworld.
