OC or Canon: Original Character
APPEARANCE
Height: 6ft even
Weight: 168lbs
Eyes: Grey/Green
Hair: Dark brown
Overall Appearance:
Ruggedly handsome and dashing have both become frequent terms used in describing his appearance, though those terms are usually used by himself before anyone else will use them. That doesn't make it untrue though of course. He has dark hair and keeps his face far from clean shaven, though it's not exactly a scraggly, or scruffy beard either. He's a fit looking man, toned but not built like a god. His clothing choice is quite fitting for the type of man he is, the swashbuckling rogue look being quite prominent with him as he wears a series of open top shirts, vests and long coats in different color patterns. Reds and Blacks tending to be his favorite colors.
PERSONALITY
He's a fun loving character, who's biggest life theory is that you had better make your life count, because you only get to live it once. As such he lives his life in the moment, making blitz decisions (though they usually work out great because of his force sensitivity giving him a sense for things like that)
Kyle's also quite the smooth talker, or at least he things he is most of the time. He can be serious or humorous as well, but he prefers his charm over anything else. He's prone to having different characteristics depending on the person he's with at the time... business partners tend to get his professional side and nothing else, though that is a total facade of who he really is.
BACKGROUND
Planet Origin: Corellia
Starting Planet: None (starting on space station more then likely)
Era Origin: Old Republic (current date)
History:
Kyle was born on Corellia into a family of merchant travelers. As such he didn't stick to the world of Corellia for long before his family were packed up and moving for some other kind of travels, though they always returned home to Corellia for short periods of time.
At least that was the case until they struck the wrong deal with a Hutt by the name of Hebba. While short on money they thought it wise to take a lone from them, but it ended up costing them dearly as they ended up working for the Hutt directly for quite a bit of the foreseeable future. Kyle spent a lot of time in the Palace, running around causing trouble in his own regards though being careful not to do anything so stupid as to get himself or either of his parents in trouble while they worked. It was in one of his many misadventures after he had stolen a Skiff that he met one of his earliest friends by the name of Zett Rem, who would introduce him to one of his own friends, Sarah. The three of them from that point on were the closest of friends, and while Zett was always a bit cleverer then Kyle, Kyle had a way of organizing things that Zett never did. Sure Zett could fix up and old droid, but Kyle was better at knowing how to use it, and Sarah always knew what the Hutt was up to, which was in itself valuable. Between the three of them they were perhaps the worst problems Hebba the Hutt ever had, and never knew about.
Zett was soon gone though as his family had to move to Kashyyyk, this being when Kyle was around 12 years old, Zett being just a couple years younger then he. This left Kyle and Sarah alone for a few more years, though the two of them were never all that close without Zett in the group. The both of them still managed to cause enough trouble for Hebba though, by this time he had gathered just a little bit of a watchful eye that he was unaware of for a while. Eventually though he began to suspect he was being watched (his force senses giving him a warning that there was danger going on) ... he ignored the feelings though, not having been caught before so he never thought he would have a problem now.
Now it wasn't just practical jokes though, but he was subtly taking things away from the Hutt and selling them to anyone else who would need it. He was as such, able to put holes in the Hutt's pockets, while making money himself on the side... both of which Kyle was fond of. When he was caught though, Hebba forced him to work in return, putting him on a ship that had been stolen from the Republic. He joined a small crew from there, but eventually managed to sneak away from them, sabotaging the Hutt's loot and making an enemy for himself. In these events he found himself out on Nal Hutta, where he was able to acquire himself a new ship with all of the stolen cargo and money he had taken from Hebba over time. He then picked up a small crew from there, and eventually worked his way up the latter, his small loyal crew joining him. At first they were just mercenaries that did any job coming their way, from bounties to smuggling and everything in between, but as his grew grew, so did the the need for more credits.
So they started setting out to do work for themselves, attacking smaller crime organizations at first... taking what they needed. They were officially becoming pirates. It was while following a lead from their hideout that they found out an abandoned space station in the outer rim, not very far from Ryloth, the Twi'lek home world. It's an area traveled well enough that they were surprising no one had discovered it any sooner. Kyle considered what to do with such a station, and eventually settled with using some extra credits to fix it up and bring people in to work on it and out of it. For a while it was just a base for his Pirates, but over several years it began to be better know in certain underground circles.
This also was reason for concern to Kyle, as he would grow fearful rivals would want to take the station from him... and so he set to work upgrading the defenses, and in the process ran across three large Republic cruisers, all three of them damaged from battles and thought to be useless for the Republic, which was fine by Kyle. He stole them, though only barely managed to get them out of the port with his limited man power. Still he managed, and eventually managed to repair them well enough to be work defense and little else. He to this day doesn't have enough people to man them all, but instead has them tied into the stations defense grid, basically allowing them to be remotely controlled for the most part... they have been affectionately dubbed the ghost ships due to the fact they aren't manned. If he ever needed to though, he barely has enough crew members to fully man one of them at minimal man power... though he looks to increase his numbers...
