PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS

Zari is an altogether quiet and observant person, preferring to examine an environment and observe others before offering information of himself.

His language barrier serves him to listen first and perhaps offer a response second. Despite his current predicament, he tends to be optimistic and forward-thinking.

Zari follows an ancient Twi’lek religion that believes in gods and goddesses. His internal faith remains one of the most important aspects of his internal life and identity.

Dance and the performing arts have always been a staple of Ryloth culture, especially among the poorer districts where Zari grew up. Zari has always been drawn to music, and spent many nights with his clan, creating songs that carried on the desert wind while they bonded over the fireside and sang stories of a better future. Because of this, he could be considered a “clown” and finds purpose in the performing arts.

He tends to land on the side of good, choosing to help rather than destroy - which makes it all the more mysterious how he could end up in prison.

STRENGTHS

Charm

Zari has a subtle charm that has served him well in life. His pliant personality allows him to engage with most people, while he carefully listens to gain an idea of who they are. Given his lack of resources, wisdom, or special powers, sometimes charm is all a young Twi’lek has to survive with!

Faith

Zari’s strong faith and strong will have served him well in less than ideal circumstances, especially his current situation.

His simplistic faith allows him to hold on to an idea of a better future, whether that is true or false. Like many Twi’leks caught in powerless servitude, the idea to keep forging ahead is an internal light that could be used to persevere and accomplish incredible things.

Entertaining

Drawn to music as a child, Zari’s large clan taught him to play multiple instruments. He had experimented with the drums, kloo horn, and seven-string hallikset. He also has a low, smooth voice that used to carry on the desert winds as he would sing of better times and strum his instrument. Although one of his sisters left the planet and became a renowned dancer to a Hutt lord, Zari has some skill in dance as well, unusual of a Twi’lek male. He is happiest when he is completely lost in performing, sometimes performing all three functions - singing, dancing and playing - all at once.

Of course, in a prison one is stripped of their instruments, save their voice.

WEAKNESSES

Language barrier

Although he is fluent in Ryloth, as a slave on Zygerria no one in the palace found it necessary for him to learn Basic. Although he picked up on certain words and ideas (enough to form clues) he speaks with an accent that some could find either charming or annoying.

Physical strength

Given he is on the smaller side for a male, especially male Twi’leks, Zari does not strike an imposing figure. He is also not empowered with the Force or any other mysterious…mystical power that could be floating around out there.

HISTORY

Like the majority of Twi’leks from Ryloth’s capital city, Zari grew up poor. The service industry offered a way of making money and seeing other parts of the galaxy. Having always had a reserved but flexible personality, life aboard a vacation starship seemed like a natural fit.

Because of his charming abilities, he was assigned as a waiter aboard the massive luxury starcruiser, where he was able to serve food or drinks while quietly enjoying the music and bands. In the years he served he developed a sense of style and withdrawn grace that earned him admiration from many of his guests.

One guest in particular- or rather, guests - proved extremely influential in the course of his life. He waited on a royal magistrate and his family - a wealthy collection of Zygerrians from Zygerria, no less, which has always served as a hub for opulent palaces and galactic slavery. Duly impressed with his exotic red skin and gentle nature, the Magistrate offered him a place within the palace among the jungle.

However, promised that he would live within the indoors and be kept comfortable, Zari willlingly went into service for the magistrate and his family.

Although life at the palace was a dream, entertaining the Magistrate and his small family, it was a short-lived one.

The Magistrate was killed - murdered…poisoned! And the circumstances pointed to Zari, being that he was the newest servant and by far the Magistrate’s closest confidant, serving as something of a majordomo to the Zygerrian man.

After all, Twi’lek males have built a reputation on gaining access to their masters’ businesses and then cutting their throats while they sleep…have they not?

Although Zari was dismayed by such an injustice, he was hauled away to a secluded prison in the Outer Rim. He currently strips away his devious minerals using a pick, and wears a yellow jumpsuit while doing so…but he wears it with grace.
