PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Mr. Nine, real name Toby, has a tall, slender build, with pale blue skin common amongst other Umbarans and grey hair.

PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS

A chipper fellow with a friendly disposition, but has a particularly itchy trigger finger. He loves the thrill of the hunt, chasing down the scum of the galaxy and putting away another monster. The law is a suggestion, merely the means of keeping order. If the law needs to be disregarded to finish a case it will, which Mr. Nine does with little weight on his back. He has a love of sweets, particularly lollipops and fruit juice, and smooth jazzy music.

STRENGTHS

• Sharpshooter (Force enhanced precision)
• Charismatic
• Adaptable
• Smart, despite his initial dopey attitude.

WEAKNESSES

• Despite his force sensitivity, he is unaware of and even skeptical of it's existence. He thinks he's simply lucky.
• Tends to jump into situations head first without thinking of the consequences.
• Has an unhealthy habit of going behind the eyes of the law.

HISTORY

Born in the slums of Coruscant, Toby had an uneventful childhood. From a young age, however, he did express a great interest in leaving and seeing the galaxy. Eventually, he would join the Galactic Alliance military as a cadet, but left not long after due to him growing disinterested in becoming a soldier. He did pick up his alias of Mr. Nine there, the result of a particular training exercise where he dueled nine "assailants" and came out the victor, completely untouched. He would take to the stars not long after, becoming an explorer for some time. After facing the likes of criminals in the unknown regions and finding it thrilling, Toby decided to put his keen eyes to the test, starting a freelance private-investigation business.
