NAME: Sam Connory, born Sammar Hennst
FACTION:
RANK: Bard
SPECIES: Half human, half Echani
AGE: Mid thirties
SEX: Male
HEIGHT: 6'1"
WEIGHT: 240lbs
EYES: Brown
HAIR: Brown
SKIN: Pale (half Echani)
FORCE SENSITIVE: Not remotely
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Like his father as a young man, Sam is a gadgeteer who enjoys a good satirical verse, particularly directed at the powerful and dangerous. He's done time as a propagandist for a few insurgent factions here and there over the years, so his record is not the shiniest. He's a seasoned spacer and brawler. He's not Force-sensitive in the slightest.
APPEARANCE:
Sam likes a tidy look - well-trimmed beard, precise haircut, metro with a bearish sort of edge. He dresses like the spacer that he is.
BIOGRAPHY:
A long time ago, there was a young fellow named Galeth Hennst who got embroiled in a feud of sorts with his in-laws. He abandoned pretty much everything and hightailed it into the void under to avoid a murder charge. He didn't know that the young wife he left behind was pregnant. Under the name Rel Connory, Bard of the Hyperlanes, he carved a pan-galactic swath of tavern-song mockery and electronic sabotage. He later became a councilor to
Spencer Varanin
, Queen of Eshan. He also-
Well, we're not here to talk about Rel Connory. We're here to talk about the fetus he left behind.
Sam grew up in a bad home, though his mother did her best. When she died during the Netherworld Crisis, a victim of the extended family's bitter infighting, Sam struck off for himself. He initially took his absent daddy's pseudonym with the vague intention of trying to damage his reputation. After a few years he caught up with the elder Connory, shot him, and shared a drink with him. They weren't close. By this point Rel Connory was a bitter, vengeful, borderline suicidal cyborg steeped in guilt - someone Sam could respect, in a way. And Rel saw who he used to be in Sam - the sad, wandering, near-pacifist gadgeteer with the laser-sharp tongue. Sam went his own way under his father's old label: the Bard of the Hyperlanes.
Rewind a little to Sam's break with his family in the last days of the Netherworld Crisis. For a time, he fell in with another teenager - a certain
Allyson Locke
, an engineer on Ember Rekali's ship. One thing led to another. Like his daddy before him, Sam left a pregnant girl behind without realizing it.
This is how the enigmatic girl named
Viers Connory
came to be. May the Force have mercy on us all.
