Uroz Laa'Sarkin
Zenith of Naglou
NAME: Uroz Laa'Sarkin of Naglou
FACTION: Ruling Council of Xasuri
RANK: Duca (Non-Royal Nobility) / Councillor (Ruler of Naglou)
SPECIES: Human
AGE: 29
SEX: Male
HEIGHT: 5’9 on left side of body and 5’10 on right side of body
WEIGHT: 147 lbs
EYES: Heterochromia, green left eye and blue right eye
HAIR: Brown
SKIN: Pale
FORCE SENSITIVE: Force Sensitive
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Nobility
Being nobility gives access to many different resources such as wealth and people, but to a lesser degree than royalty. As a noble, Uroz started out in life with a sizeable network. Excellent education combines with the latter to support a high degree of confidence and charisma. Thus, he is a formidable presence in Xasuri’s corridors of power and commands some respect in the wider Outer Rim.
Business Acumen
As Chairman and CEO of both the Konzra Luxuries and Zankro Agriculture conglomerates for nearly a decade, Uroz has honed many relevant skills well. He negotiates well, and tends to get what he wants, if not at least a fair deal. His two companies hold monopolies across the income spectrum; Konzra sells Xasurian wine and gems to the upper class while Zankro is a household name among the commoners for their daily sustenance. This deep pool of financial capital gives him access to most goods across the Galaxy.
Damaged Self-Esteem
As a result of past circumstances, Uroz found himself with a damaged left leg and right eye. These do not reflect on his physical abilities as much as it does his psyche and emotional stability. As the proverbial “chip on one’s shoulder”, Uroz’ natural charisma is dampened by random flashes of insecurity and annoyance that are targeted at whoever happens to trigger his complex, or make fun of his appearance.
Self-Destructive Connection to the Force
While there are no Force-adept users native to Xasuri, Uroz is aware of the extent to which one can manipulate the Force from his personal readings. As a child, he was enthralled by the many stories that reached the planet about Sith and Jedi and the miracles they can wreak. To discover early on that he had Force potential is one of his happiest memories. To realize that this power came with a heavy price was one of his saddest. His body, for reasons still unknown to him as an adult, takes damage when reaching out to the Force.
Whenever he makes successive (or excessive) of it, this escalates from minor skin-deep cuts and rashes, to life-threatening injuries and internal bleeding. A rough estimate of his limit would be ten strong Force pushes per day or qualitatively, manipulating five tons of matter in one instance. As a young adult, he was able to roughly grasp the nature of his personal limitation during an attempt to save the life of his fiancee. This ended with a preserved life and an imploded left kneecap.

Interaction with Elleryn
Uroz conflicts with his fiancee in three broad areas - their primary goals in life, the general direction of their emotions, and the manner in which they interact with people and the wider society. For example, Elleryn is generally calm, but easily changes her mood to the consternation of her peers. On the other hand, Uroz’ natural anxiety is moderated by an even temper. As adolescents, their rare short conversations usually proceeded like this:
Elleryn: “…A pleasant evening to you Councilor Laa’Sarkin.”
Uroz: “And here we go again with my inscrutable fiancee. By calling me by higher title, does that mean to imply
that she’s in a bad mood? Or perhaps it isn’t her form of address I should be worried about. She waited a few seconds before greeting me. Was she examining my attire? I made sure to wear gold today. Did she notice? Damn, damn, damn, damn.
Uroz: It was pleasant before, dear princess. Now that we have met, it has become absolutely wonderful.
Elleryn: “Alright. You may leave me to rest now.”
Uroz: “Higol, help me. What did I do wrong this time? She’s dismissing me. She’s dismissing me, I know it. I want to
talk with her more, seeing as our last conversation was eight months ago, but what do I do, what do I do, what do I
do, whatdoIdowhatdoIdowhatdoIdo...”
Elleryn: “Is there anything you require? You’re still here.”
Uroz: “Nothing at all, Ellie. Nothing... but your continued favor.” <bows before walking away>
Uroz: “At least I was able to use her childhood nickname. Good thing I met Prince Emir before I went inside the
ballroom. Ah, but how will she react to that? I remember reading on the XasuNet that ending a conversation with a
surprise ensures the beginning of another, so it may turn out fine. I paid good money for that damned
holocast, so it better turn out fine!”
Elleryn: “..........I am going to murder Emir.”
BIOGRAPHY:
Summary of Accumulated Resources (Very High, High, Moderate, Low, Very Low)
Knowledge Capital: High (+ excellent education as nobility)
Financial Capital: Very High (+ Konzra Luxuries and Zankro Agriculture, + good negotiator)
Political Capital: High (+ born with sizeable network and local high status)
Social Capital: Moderate (+ ingrained charisma, - damaged self-esteem)
Physical Capital: Very Low (- limit to Force usage, - lack of formal training)
Sexual Capital: Low (- claimed Elleryn at the age of 19 so has little practical experience, - society discourages sexual relations motivated by love)
Financial Capital and Zankro Agriculture
Uroz Laa’Sarkin does not remember the first time he met his father. He can recall other things though. He remembers how he was berated by him for throwing a tantrum at 3 years old. The toddler noble learned quickly that dignified Xasurians do not waste the time of their betters, once decisions have been made. Only then could he hope to become a noble toddler. There is a difference, undoubtedly.
“I think I was upset over being required to attend a board meeting of Zankro Agriculture,” the magnate mused as he continued to feign interest in the pleas of a random employee - no, about-to-be-terminated employee - who was currently in his office.
“...and considering how Yonwa of Mudi escalated substandard harvest volume estimates to me, it surely could not be helped that Division 14’s revenues were, unfortunately, quite a bit lackluster this quarter! Further, yet another problem our strategy team was able to identify was the frustrating incompetence of most of our entry-level trainees this year! As I take my responsibilities as division lead seriously, this humble self personally saw to the personal development of the young blood. I simply could not bear the thought of your wealth being wasted on the steep learning curves of these inexperienced…!”
“Buffoons?” Uroz dryly remarked.
“Uh, indeed, bu...”
“Do you know why I was able to predict what you were about to say, Lead of Division 14?” Uroz asked, as the beleaguered manager tried to process his superior’s sudden interruption. “Well, I suppose…” he began. “That was a rhetorical question, Lead of Division 14. A question as rhetorical as the answer I am - or rather, was expecting - from you is definite. And yet, for the the past,” the councillor momentarily shifted his gaze to the antique timepiece he had procured from Zeltros, “19 minutes, you have been regaling me with an impromptu theatrical monologue, significant portions of which are made up by the words, “unfortunately”, “I” and “buffoon”. In fact, I think you have a talent for non sequitur theatre! You can take the drivel you have been feeding me, sit down with a flute glass of sparkling 67-point Xasurian Premier Black, and organize it into a production called “The Travails of Division 14”. And since, like you, I value the personal advancement of my underlings, I am now giving you enough free time to do just that.”
“S.S..S.Sir! You couldn’t possibly mean…” the poor manager protested. “You are terminated, effective immediately. Inaccurate harvest reports are about as correlated to Zankro’s revenue performance as payroll is to one’s ability to equivocate. Unfortunately,” he sarcastically drawled, “I have been subjected to the buffoon that is you for far too long. I have had enough hand-wringing for the past 2 years; I certainly do not need an additional tantrum in the next 2 minutes.”
“Get out. Now.”
“Funny,” Uroz thought, as the former employee slinked outside into the harsh ion lights that characterize the Zankro head office corridors. “My father sent me away with the same three words when I was three.”
Sexual Capital and Elleryn
“Elleryn, this is Uroz,” said King Emir Anatrath Drasoleth IV of Xasuri simply, as the benevolent king fulfilled one of Uroz’ dearest dreams. He had heard of the Princess’ beauty, and being the hopeless fool that he was, began crafting metaphors to use as compliments when they finally met. He had initially thought to use “the pristine sacred waters of Higle Lagoon” somehow, then transitioned to “the shining cash reserves of Konzra Luxuries”, then finally settled for the tried and true, “glory of Xasurian gems” upon realizing that the second one would probably be better suited for boardroom negotiations.
But this.
This girl with hair that speaks of wealth, eyes that mirror the tumultuous sky, and skin that is pure light made manifest.
“I would like for you two to get to know each other.” Yes. This was to proceed like any other acquisition his father had accomplished over the years for the family’s two conglomerates. 98% due diligence, painful negotiations and long sleepless nights, followed by the blissful 1% that results from claiming the target, and the… profitable 1% remainder that comes with the reality of owning a quality asset.
“H...H..H.. Hello.”
Damn. He just had to stutter.
