Personality

Thiago is cool, calculated, and confident in the fact that he's probably played this scenario in his head already, even if he got some of the details wrong. In fact, he probably did. Overtly capable of speaking without saying any words and a great projector of body language and intent. Rarely utilizes that ability and more often than not makes a snide or sarcastic comment anyway, usually to his own chagrin. Harbors long lasting chips for even the smallest of slights. Perpetually uses humor as a defense mechanism.

DETAILS ​

🢒 Once stole the 3rd biggest Bounty Hunter in the Exodus systems ship. Sorry Gargthax!
🢒 Has the Charisma to be a ladies man. But lacks the common sense of when to STFU
🢒 Kind of a nice guy if you ignore that he might steal your ... where is your wallet, anyway?
🢒 His silver hair is a fashion choice. He isn't open about his natural hair color. It's black.

Background

When you need something found, people call Thiago. The problem is, that isn't always the legal way of going about things. Raised on a ship engineering colony ring, Trey didn't even know people lived on actual planets until he was a boy. But from a young age, he was keen on not being like his father and mother who were indebted to the corporation they worked for and in a constant struggle to try and break even. He wanted to be the corporation. The one who people asked things for and had to meet his terms.

What a naïve child. But what he lacked in understanding that people like him didn't become the corps, he made up for in ambition and being a positively cutthroat sonofabitch. Tools go missing, cargo manifests can be altered, all for a few spendable markes to get more rations. If someone cut him out of a deal, well, let's just say there isn't someone who checks what gets ground up into those nutrient bricks. It was a downward spiral from there.

Trey's first off-ring contract came late in his teens and he stole a piece of tech from the colony's controlling corp and was smuggling it to their competitor. He never looked back. He's made somewhat of a name for himself as a smuggler and acquirer of rarer items even in remarkably shitty circumstances, and as a man who isn't afraid to get a little wet when those items prove hard to get. Funny thing is, the local authorities fucking love you until they hate you, and sometimes there's more than one 'authority' - He'd been screaming across a system just outside the Teldari Dominion's radius of control, because fuck getting involved with those guys, and was skirting Frigiax-V an inhospitable and barren ice-planet and his radar lit up like a proverbial Christmas tree. And then his propulsion units exploded.

DETAILS ​

🢒 Won the Golden Gloves award for boxing in the Heavyweight category. He still trains.
🢒 Can coerce himself speak 'properly' but identifies his speech as a sign of his roots.
🢒 Drinks a cup of coffee and reads the paper alone in the morning, his daily peace.

Background

From a young age Dean was a little hellion. His father was a successful cobbler in Sicily and his mother was a traditional housewife. They immigrated early in 1900 when he was still a young baby. The American life is all he's ever known. It's amazing how much comradery a boy can find amongst fellow struggling Italian immigrants, and particularly how much trouble they can get up to.

By as young as ten, Dean was running a street gambling game, which was a cover for what really amounted to a pickpocketing scheme. By thirteen he was running a immigrant housing scam, and by seventeen he'd gotten locked up for that scam. He didn't have much of a choice and enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps and fought in the battle of Belleau Wood.

While in the service, Dean found a passion for boxing, and when Dean got out of the service, he'd managed to win the heavyweight golden gloves. He was an absolute force to be reckoned with. They'd given him all the tools and abilities needed to be a lean, mean, killing machine and he had every intention of using those abilities back on the streets, it was really the only path he'd ever known. What was he going to do... fix shoes? He wasn't his father. So he got involved with a group of people who took a shining to what a guy like Dean brought to the table. The rest is history.

Currently Dean is a Capo in the Calabria family and someone who's feared as much or possibly moreso than he's respected. He is legally the proprietor of the Bella Vita and also manages the speakeasy hidden away down a flight of stairs one can get to only by going through a side door tucked away in a hallway of the Cafe, separate from the rest of the general seating area.

【 Weight 】 230-ish
【 Eyes 】 Cerulean Blue
【 Hair 】 Dusty Flaxen

Personality

Armande is somewhat of a terse man, and entirely beholden to the church. Though wouldn't say that he is necessarily in love the church. It has been his life, his duty, and his meaning at times, but he isn't a zealot. Considered a bit of a nuisance to the other Inquisitors, Armand has a talent for sorting out the heresies of magic by being among the people and not commanding over them. He is very alert and attentive to both his environment and the people around him, often reportedly causes people unease due to his remarkable height and status.

🢒 " So insignificant that I can't even recall your name. "
🢒 " I'm certainly not a farmer. "
🢒 " The drink. Or is it a stew...? "
🢒 " Not particularly. "

🢒 Finds drinking perfectly acceptable in the course of his work, as long as it isn't in excess.
🢒 Has a lovely chestnut tobiano mare draft horse that he has a deep connection to.
🢒 Despises the church rescinding his autonomy to do menial tasks; Even on Pyre Day.
🢒 Believes that Taking the Pyre is the safest course of action for anyone.

Background

Son to a family who already had a handful of children that they could barely feed, and destined to be just another mouth in a household with no extra food. Armande was given to the church as an act of service and redemption for their poor offerings to God. Having a child serve the church was seen as a sign of prestige and wealth in many circles. Though in this one, it was just not so much spoken of. Humble peasant mother and fathers were something he had heard of but not witnessed short of when he was a babe. Raised in the confined cloister walls of the Santharian Church, Armande grew to resist the processes and education of the ecclesiarch.

Confused and misunderstood in a way only the ignorant and naive youth can be he made multiple attempts to escape from the boarding barracks. He was exposed to the quiet whisperings of the schism long before adulthood, having been punished severely by an elitist hand of zealots who thought his punishment didn't meet his crimes... of trying to free himself. He was beaten and bloodied in a hallway and left to die. Thankfully the Archbishop of the Inquisition found him first.

This small act of what was perceived as kindness was actually an assessment of the Child's ability to survive and testament to his willpower. Armande was made a page to an Inquisition Templar. The Inquisition branch of the church was cruel, lengthy, and regimented. In many cultures they would even refer to it as brainwashing however Armandes' past experiences proved to be too long lasting to buy fully into his own 'faith in the order and he found himself at times questioning if they were the good guys.

🢒 " I'm glad you think so. "
🢒 " So I've taken the liberty of copying your extensive search history ... "
🢒 " Don't you dare ever step toe-to-toe with me again... "

🢒 His companies name is from the 'West' in Westly. His family built it. "
🢒 His company makes surveillance and technological equipment. He likes to use it.
🢒 Drives an old Ford pickup despite profiting over 36-billion last year.

Background

Born to a family of relative success, though at the drive of an abusive and manipulative father. Heir to the throne of the Western (as in Westly) Dynamics, a top five government contracting company which designs and creates various types of surveillance and technological equipment in use across hundreds of countries and the producer of all focus based tech for the countries telescopes and space ventures. Though remarkably influential in its small niche sector of the world, it is not a company that ever brought public attention, a fact his father was constantly trying to get over.

He graduated at 17, attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for Electrical Engineering and then promptly joined the U.S. Army to get away from his father in protest of him 'insisting' that he take a position that he would hand-craft for him and never have to work a day in his life. The sort of like his father had lived, and the opposite that he was determined to achieve. He served as an officer in the 1st Special Forces Group where he served multiple tours in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. He transitioned to a position with the CIA's Office of Military Affairs where he 'retired' at the rank to Lt. Colonel when his father was in poor health. As a privately held company, Lucas was the immediately aligned successor by the will of his Father. That was 5 years ago. If anyone has questioned his competency as CEO in that time, they've chosen to keep it to themselves.
