426px-Gungan_NEGAS.jpg

NAME: Troo Noba
FACTION: The Accord, Independent
RANK: Undecided.
SPECIES: Gungan, subspecies Otolla.
AGE: 29 Galactic Standard Years.
GENDER: Male.
HEIGHT: Six foot three inches.
WEIGHT: One hundred and seventy pounds.
EYES: Orange.
HAIR: Troo Noba is bald.
SKIN: Mottled orange.
CREDITS: 1,000 Credits.
DISTINGUISHING MARKS: He has a scar from a bite on his bill, as well as another scar under his right eyestalk.
FORCE SENSITIVE: Not in the least.

STRENGTH: Troo Noba has been a smuggler for several years, developing stronger muscles in his upper body. Being Gungan, he has incredibly powerful legs, which he relies on in combat.
DEXTERITY: Gungans have cartilaginous skeletons, making Troo Noba very flexible. He can easily avoid danger, and usually resorts to fleeing if possible.
CONSTITUTION: Troo Noba is a healthy Gungan, with no chronic illnesses or mental disorders. His mind is clear, though he does have an alcohol dependency.
INTELLIGENCE: Despite popular belief, most Gungans are quite intelligent. Troo Noba has an above-average intellect, which he uses to evade the law while carrying "less-than-legal" substances through space.
WISDOM: Troo Noba isn't particularly wise, sometimes only seeking the short-game victory. If he thinks, he usually only thinks about what is in front of him, and not long-term consequences.
CHARISMA: Troo speaks Gungan Basic, which gives him a comedic appeal to some, but several turns off others. Troo can talk his way out of trouble, a skill he learned through years of smuggling, but some people just can't stand the Gungan speech patterns.

PERSONALITY:
Troo Noba comes off goofy, his unique Gungan dialect causing some to not take him seriously. However, Troo Noba has spent a long time in space, hardening him in insolation. Troo is distant to most around him, never knowing who might turn him in for his illegal lifestyle. He has made many "less-than-reputable" contacts over the years, leaving him well-versed in foreign mannerisms. Troo is respectful when it comes to the wishes of others, and does not interfere in matters that do not concern him. The less attention he gets, the better.​
BIOGRAPHY:
Troo Noba left his people at the age of ten, after being offered life on a ship by a stranger. The stranger turned out to be a smuggler, but Troo didn't care at the time, he simply wanted out of his routine life. He saw the way Gungans grew up, and it all seemed incredibly boring to him. Exploring space wasn't something a Gungan would usually wish for, but Troo Noba would take anything other than his current life. Over the years, the man who had taken Troo with him told him many stories, taught him many things about the galaxy.

At the age of twenty-three, Troo and his mentor had a dispute with several other smugglers. They were unhappy with losing several customers due to the successes of Troo. They hunted the two of them down, and in the ensuing firefight, Troo's mentor was killed. Troo Noba managed to escape, and the enemy smugglers assumed him dead. This took a toll on Troo, who turned to drinking. Heavily.

Several years passed as Troo sulked and mourned. As his riches shrank, he realized he had to do something, or he'd be drunk and broke, and you can't stay drunk if you're broke. He stole a light freighter from a ship yard, and left a note with the names of the smugglers who'd killed his mentor. Troo never found out what happened after that, but he hoped the people that killed his mentor were hunted down like he had been.

Troo has used the past two years to re-build his reputation as a smuggler, hauling anything and everything, no matter how dangerous. The name "Troo Noba" means something again in the smuggling world, and that meant a great deal to him. He still drinks, a habit he won't ever break, but his heart is on the mend. Troo knows he learned every lesson he needed from his mentor, and the best thing he could do to honor him would be to continue his lifestyle. After all, it was better than being stuck with his people.​

FORCE POWERS:
Troo Noba has no affiliation with the Force.​

SKILLS:
Troo Noba has several skills he can rely on. He is very flexible, very fast, and can jump much higher than any human. He also has good aim with medium and long range blasters. Troo is a phenomenal pilot, capable of navigating risky space fronts in very large craft.​

LIGHTSABER/SWORD FORMS:
Absolutely none, Troo would most likely cut his own ears off by accident if he found one.


STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Troo's strengths mostly rely on his Gungan heritage. He can breathe underwater, hold his breath for extended periods, and has superior leg strength. He is also a terrific pilot and is good with blasters.

While Troo's strengths are physical, his weaknesses are mental. He still carries the burden that he let his mentor die, and he suffers from alcoholism due to his lack of coping skills. He is guilty, and does what he can to cover that up.

GEAR:
Troo has a hand-made outfit. During his time in space, he learned to craft many things. His outfit is made from an unnamed amphibian hide. He also wears an ornate belt buckle, and has several pouches hanging from it, containing various substances. Mostly drugs. He enjoys wearing jewels, and carries a large club, which can be outfitted with a booma if something needs to die.

SHIP:
Troo Noba is in possession of an XS stock light freighter. It is equipped with a hyperdrive and shielding. It also had two Soniver Arms laser cannons and missle batteries. There is one escape pod and can be run by one person.

DROIDS:
Troo Noba has two droids, one pit and one astromech. The pit droid was something Troo acquired in a game of chance on Tattooine. The astromech was on the freighter when Troo...came in possession of it. He pays little attention to either, letting them roam the ship freely.​
