STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
STRENGTHS:
INTUITIVE GENIUS - Veshi is able to learn things incredibly quickly, and rarely has to be shown things twice. This comes in handy when picking up new skills. He is also an excellent problem-solver and possesses a powerful, analytical brain.
STREET-SMARTS - Having spent the last few years on the streets of Coruscant, Veshi is both resourceful and thrifty. He knows how to pick pockets and burgle, which store owners will be less likely to ask pointed questions, and how to make a half-cred chit last him a week.
MASTER OF DISGUISE - After the death of his parents, Veshi traveled with a group of famed Zeltron acrobats and performers. The knowledge he has gained from them allows him to change his appearance drastically with a mere shift of his gait or a change in the look of his eyes. Veshi can pass off as just about anyone, and knows a fair bit more about Zeltron pheromones than average.
CHARMING - I think this one speaks for itself.
BRILLIANT MUSICIAN - And also an excellent singer. Can earn a buck or two when he needs it.

WEAKNESSES:
RECKLESS - Veshi will do anything to achieve what he wants to achieve ... he often doesn't think about the consequences of his actions until they happen to him.
LIAR - He has a quick tongue and has realised that being dishonest has its advantages on occasion. Often, though, his mouth runs away from him.
GOES TOO FAR - Veshi can over-do it at any time. This often gets him in trouble. His vengeful nature brings him into dangerous situations that aren't easy to get out of.

APPEARANCE:
Veshi is able to significantly alter his appearance with every role he plays, simply by changing the way he holds himself, the way his face moves, the way he speaks as well as making use of different items of clothing. Most of the time, though, he is Veshi, a young man of medium height, a slight but athletic build, and strong facial features. He moves light on his feet and carries himself with a somewhat tense manner.

BIOGRAPHY:
ORIGINS:
Veshi was born on the Mid-Rim world of Ascension to Valran and Kelia Don, wayfaring Kiffar traders who made their living trading along the Corellian Run, Mara Corridor and Rimma Trade Route. The Don family were distantly related to the famous Vos clan, though their fortunes were considerably poorer than the family that had given the galaxy Quinlan Vos. As such, all Don family members had yellow facial tattoos, and Veshi's would have been no different if he had ever received his. It was not to be, however. After six years wayfaring and trading while caring for and raising young Veshi, the Don family ship was attacked by pirates not far from Void Station. An attack in the Mara Corridor was not rare, considering the lawless state of the galaxy after the four hundred years of the Gulag Virus. Valran and Kelia Don were killed. Veshi was found hiding in a smuggling compartment ... instead of being killed, he was taken.

The young boy was sold into slavery on Tatooine in the Outer Rim to a pirate king called Redurla the Hutt, who brought him into his household as a page of sorts. This arrangement did not last long, however. Redurla's compound was stormed by mercenaries from offworld, and in the midst of the fighting, quick-witted Veshi managed to disable his own tracking beacon and escape the compound. In desperation, Veshi managed to find the settlement of Anchorage after two days in the desert. Almost dead of dehydration, Veshi was found unconscious in an alleyway by a troupe of Zeltron acrobats, actors and performers. A kind-hearted actor called Delius convinced the others to take him in, and so Veshi's childhood spent with performers had begun.

PERFORMER:
After a tense first few weeks, Veshi began to open up to his new traveling companions and benefactors, and his talents were quickly noticed. His quick and sure hands were all too obvious, and soon the young boy could juggle five balls at a time. He also learned to walk a tight rope, but his real talent was with music. After learning basic chords and fingerings, which didn't take long, Veshi realised he could play by ear. An odd and elusive talent. And the boy was dedicated to his craft. He would spend hours a day practicing, even if his fingertips bled every day during the first few weeks. Soon, the boy learned how to sing and play. Not long after, Delius taught the boy the craft of acting. Affectations, inflections of the voice, how to appear to be something you're not ... safe to say, acting came as naturally to Veshi as everything else did.

The boy also read as much as he could in his spare time. It was during his time with the troupe that he discovered his talent for psychometry. He was able to read the memories of inanimate objects, a talent that only one in a thousand Kiffar possessed. Though this disconcerted him a first, inside Veshi was a thirst for knowledge. He soon became obsessed with finding the key to psychometry, and being able to do it at will. This also made him realise his Force sensitivity. To a child as gifted as Veshi, it was only natural. His time with the troupe was a happy time, but it would not last forever. On his eleventh birthday, the troupe became caught up and separated during sectarian violence in Coruscant's undercity. Veshi was alone on Coruscant without any credits or anything of value, and winter was coming.

STREET RAT:
A part of Veshi was pushed back into his subconscious memory that day. The incurably curious boy with a thirst for knowledge had been replaced by a vessel fighting for survival. Veshi learned how to survive on the streets of Coruscant quickly, but learned some tough lessons along the way. After pursuing a vendetta with another street rat who had beat him and taken what little he had during his first week on the streets, he was stabbed. He learned that Coruscant Security was corrupt and unforgiving, and that he was little more than invisible to the outside world. However, the boy grew to be a street smart individual. He became an adept thief, an excellent fence, a quick-handed pickpockets and his acting skills made him a more successful beggar than most of the other street rats. As he grew older, he began saving credits. He rarely had more than twenty at a time, but to him it was a fortune.

Veshi then took advantage of his social invisibility, accumulating information and selling it to minor information brokers. Now at age sixteen, he is one of the older street rats in his sector and definitely the most successful. He acts as another information broker of sorts, training and employing younger street kids as agents to collect important details about local figures, criminal or otherwise, and sell them on to information brokers up the chain. An enterprising move that is paying dividends, as now the young man is making enough money to eat properly and find a warm place to sleep. However, success does breed attention. Will it be the good kind or the bad kind? Only time will tell.
