Name:
Sarkona Desilijic Tiure
Age:
786
Race:
Hutt
Birth place: Nal Hutta
Height:
Roughly 17 feet long, and a good eight feet at least if standing up.
Weight:
appox. 2000 lbs.
Eye Color:
Yellow
Hair Color:
None
Appearance:
Sarkona the Hutt is a magnificent beast, representing the full splendor and power of the divine Hutt culture. However, non-Hutts rarely appreciate his figure's innate beauty and strength... Sarkona bears many scars and wounds from centuries of mortal combat and intrigue, and what may seem like flab to outsiders is actually that rare form of Hutt power... physical strength. Sarkona has grown old though, and rarely feels the need to exploit his physical prowess.
Personality:
Sarkona is a Hutt, with all that implies. Cruel, ruthless, patient, and calculating, a Hutt is bred and raised for one endeavor... the acquisition of power. Sarkona himself has grown somewhat jaded with the pursuit of power, and regularly expresses boredom with Galactic events. Now, his sole desire is to expand his clan's power and influence for the benefit of future Hutts.
Profession:
Crimelord
Previous Faction/Rank:
N/A
Equipment:
Repulsor lift, little else. Sarkona is typically unarmed, albeit surrounded by guards.
Starship:
The Cruel Destiny
Skills:
Being a Hutt, Sarkona's combat skills are negligible by most standards, but within a certain distance, Sarkona can crush a human's skull with little to no effort and has suprisingly good reflexes for someone the size of a small moisture farm. Should his opponent have the good fortune of standing more than five feet away though, Sarkona relies primarily on his hired muscle. Sarkona is no tactical genius, but has still been commanding mercenaries for over half a millenia. He has also seen more coups and civil wars than almost any living creature. Therefore, his guards are trained for most extreme situations.
Primarily though, like most successful crimelords, Sarkona is a businessman before anything else, and running a cartel requires far more business acumen than simple bloodlust. The Desilijic cartel remains one of the most successful criminal enterprises in the Outer Rim, in great part due to Sarkona's Huttese talent for claiming what everyone needed before anyone knew it was there...
Attributes:
Physical Strength: 8 (In excellent shape for a Hutt his age)
Intelligence: 6
Speed: 2 (If you can't outrun a Hutt, then you must have serious health concerns)
Leadership: 8 (How many planets do YOU own?)
Unarmed: 4 (Great size
and experience ignored, he's not really a challenge)
Melee Weapons: 3 (Ditto)
Ranged Weapons: 2 (Those arms and that bodyshape make it very difficult for Hutts to become good marksmen)
Bio:
Sarkona Desilijic Tiure was born nearly 800 standard years ago on Nal Hutta, which means 'Glorious Jewel' in the Sacred Tongue. Sarkona was blessed with all a young slug could possess, and his progenitor/father/mother Markova was most generous. It is known that Markova the Hutt was one of the great innovators of Hutt society, which in layman's terms, means he was one of the first to exploit hyperspace for illegal profits. Markova remains one of the great fathers of intergalactic crime, and it was into this vaunted position of expectations that young Sarkona of only 102 years would wriggle into.
Sarkona's first action as overlord of the Deilijic cartel was now in the business of acquiring planets, not simply traderoutes and ships. The Hutt Empire would later be said to have been born from this radical ambition, but of course, it would be said most often by Desilijic members. Rival Hutts of equal prestige would argue that no one kajidic could have built the empire, and Sarkona's true genius was in allying himself with wiser, more powerful Hutts in bringing glory to the great families of old Varl.
Still, those older Hutts are dead and Sarkona remains. This is not to say he is some all-powerful Hutt warlord. Quite the opposite. After years of Imperial expansion, Sarkona finds his position threatened by a much younger and more brutal generation, one that has not borne witness to the great wars that allowed the Hutts their opportunity to expand in absence of Republic or Jedi influence. Today, Sarkona fears the fledgling Hutt Empire may collapse if the clans do not maintain solidarity. For in Hutt culture, there are only two great sins... betrayal of the Kajidic, and to favor any race over their fellow Hutt.
If ambitions become too great, the Hutt Empire may destroy itself from within...
