Figured I would post the characters in the game I am beginning this weekend. Let me know what you think. I feel that there are going to be all kinds of opportunity with the obligations and motivations on these 3 characters.

Motivation: Ambition Fame - Due to his betrayal by Galven, Terron seeks to make a name for himself as the most feared bounty hunter in the Outer Rim.
Obligation: 20 Betrayal - Terron was betrayed by his bounty hunting partner during a hunt. His partner, Galven Jinn, decided to take all the glory when the two captured a high profile bounty. Terron actually did all the work devising the plan, but Galven took all the credit. 5 Responsibility - Terron feels a slight responsibility to protect his home town Kurimorut on Mandalore from any Galactic Empire threats or retaliation towards the refugee clones who taught him his bounty hunting skills.
Background: Terron grew up in the clone refugee city of Kurimorut on Mandalore. He was trained by some of the clone refugees to be a bounty hunter. After completing his training he teamed up with Galven Jinn to form a bounty hunting duo. While tracking one of their biggest bounties, Terron devised a brilliant strategy that helped them capture Ordo Skirata. Ordo had been wanted for providing the Empire details on the activities of a group of refugee clones in the Outer Rim. However when it came time to turn Ordo over and collect the bounty, Galven betrayed Terron and took all the glory of the capture for himself. Since then Terron has decided to prove who is the better bounty hunter and become one of the most famous bounty hunters of Mandalore beside Jango and Boba Fett.

He has determined that he will never let another ship down and his goal is to ensure that the Galaxy Cruiser flies the hyperspace lanes for all eternity. 5 Bounty - TEK1-4U has a small bounty on his head since stowing away on the Galaxy Cruiser. Mendo would like to have his prized mechanic droid back in one piece.
Background: TEK1-4U had his memory wiped about 4 years ago. His new owner, Vorta Quix, programmed him with the sole purpose of maintaining and repairing his freighter. However a couple years later Vorta had some bad luck at a Sabacc table and lost TEK1-4U to a minor Zann Consortium Vigo named Mendo. Mendo assigned TEK1-4U to one of his Firespray System Patrol Craft called the Galaxy Cruiser. Mendo recently was unable to pay a bounty hunter and smuggler for a job they performed and gave the Galaxy Cruiser to them as payment. TEK1-4U stowed away aboard the ship when they departed.
