COMBAT INFORMATION
- Weapon of Choice:
Blaster Pistol - Martial Arts
[*]Combat Function: While by no means a true combatant Kishar knows how dangerous the business world can be at the highest levels. He always carries a hidden dagger secured on his person that does not show up on scanners and always has a blaster pistol within reach. He is trained in the basics of echani martial arts solely to defend himself should the absolute need arise.
It is to be said that while maintaining a basic ability to use them he is by no means able to take on trained, experienced combat veterans and can easily be beaten by trained soldiers. These skills are designed to help him against thugs and other fixers that corporations might use, if all of his security fails and he has no other option.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Beltis Kishar was born on the muun homeworld of Scipio to a moderately wealthy family of investors. He was discovered to be an intellectual prodigy who had already managed to learn and perform high level university grade mathematics before he was even ten years old. He graduated school early and attended the Scipio University of Mathematics, Corulag University of Economics, as well as the Coruscant Academy of Business where he greaduated suma cum laude in each, earning he degrees at quite the young age. It was Kishar's dream, his tremendous ambition to run his own business and to someday create something as successful and historic as the InterGalactic Banking Clan once was.
After returning to Scipio Kishar took control of his families investing business and turned it around into a highly successful company spending time in the harsh muun business world to build up a reputation, connect with the players and make a name for himself and learn what he could from the top magnates of that world through his various business dealings, knowledge that he would soon use. Once he had enough capital Beltis liquidated his families business and poured it into the creation of the Kishar Group, a new commerce guild. What began as an astonishing move for such a new player out of his depth quickly turned into a dangerous enemy not to be underestimated after business boomed and he led his company to against one of the top commerce guilds Tonill Industries. Kishar managed to buy a controlling interest in the company through his coaxing of its shareholders and completely liquidate it right in front of its owner the reputed Lars Tonill.
Afterwards the Kishar Group soared to the top of the food chain expanding to worlds like Muunilist, Mygeeto, Aargau, and Coruscant. They profited off the various galactic wars and were able to masterfully play the galactic stage to their advantage while destroying and liquidating rival businesses whenever possible due to the relentlessness of its CEO Beltis Kishar. However not long after the rise of the One Sith the corporate magnate took a meeting with a prospective client that would change his life: House Zambrano. Even the muun had heard of Kaine Zambrano the Sith Emperor who had ascended the throne of the Old Sith Empire and despite his best efforts could not wright the sinking ship.
He met with Braxus Zambrano the Butcher-King's hand to discuss a prospective business arrangement. Through their prestigious rise on Thule, to their rule of the Sith Empire their fortunes had continued to rise to levels that were no longer feasible, or safe in their current state. Initially this deal began where Kishar Group was in charge of the management of the families assets. However it quickly became something more after realizing just how beneficial this arrangement was. Through the Zambrano family he had a method of dominating his rivals through the Sith that others couldn't hope to achieve. So a new deal was struck. Beltis Kishar would also become the Treasurer of House Zambrano and in exchange the family would put their weight behind his company who would continue to support Kishar's new masters.
The arrangement proved to be highly successful as the Zambranos killed, blackmailed, and intimidated many rivals to the Kishar Group making them a company to be feared, while Kishar himself masterfully managed the families expansive assets ensuring they were both safe and secure. When the One Sith was nearing its end it was Kishar who helped the Zambranos secretly untether themselves from the falling empire before it had become too late before they faked their deaths, so when it collapsed the family was shielded from it. Kishar continued to serve in this fashion until he was brought before Kaine Zambrano who had just ascended to become the Sith Emperor of the New Sith Empire. Once again the Zambranos made him a lucrative offer that was too good to pass up: Minister of Finance. Kishar relocated to Bastion and began his new role as Grand Treasurer.
