Vivi the Hammer Full Name • Vivienne Mordecai Hawke Nickname • Vivi, Hawke Race • Human Birthplace • Nar Shaddaa Age • 35 Gender • Female Sexuality • Bi Faction • Exchange Concept • Rank 3 Troubleshooter/wannabe gang boss Languages • Basic, Huttese and Smugglers' Cant Assets • A man-portable LMG with grenade launcher, a heavily modified electrohammer, the kind of slush funds one would expect of a successful Exchange troubleshooter, and a selection of explosives both lethal and less so; at need she can whistle up an assortment of standard goons with standard equipment. Appearance Face Claim • Harley Quinn from Batman: Arkham Knight Height & Weight • 5'11" 155lb Overall Looks • Vivi puts a good deal of effort into looking like she doesn't care, which translates into crude makeup and outdated fashions. Typically, this consists of a revealing white dress beneath a black skirt and studded leather corset with red highlights, with red and black leggings that have spiked pads over the knees. She has blonde hair typically tied back in two girlish pigtails, and a fully-developed figure she keeps toned through strenuous daily activity; since surviving the Archeri Plague she has the purple crystalline irises that mark out those who were infected. She travels light except when necessary, although she's never without her hammer or some explosives. Personality Profile Taken in by a madman from an early age, Vivienne definitely has warped moral sensibilities. She feels nothing for the lives of others, and immediately escalates fights to extremes of brutality few can stand up to. She is thus well known in certain circles as an effective enforcer, although she stubbornly insists on being referred to as a "troubleshooter" and will literally claw your face off if you get it wrong. When off duty she can be capricious and random, but as long as she's entertained she'll be the life of any party one invites her to. Well, except the stuffy upper-class ones; she gets mad when forced to doll up for those. Background Father • Mother • Sedna Hawke, Prostitute, dead at 22 Siblings • None Other Important Connections • --Lidah Faine, 37, Exchange Compeer --Darius Fortram, dead at 53, former master and crime boss Overall History • Born to a hooker on Nar Shaddaa, Vivi was sold by her mother for her next dose, coincidentally the dose that killed her. The man who bought the squalling babe had plans for a girl-child of his own, and raised her in a strict and unforgiving manner. She grew up without much of a moral compass, in other words, and was constantly running off to find entertainment in the absence of anything "fun" around her so-called father. Far from punishing her for such disobedience, the man did his best to subtly reinforce it, as he wanted anything but a dull, obedient servant when she was ready for what he wanted from her. In her early teens he began taking her out and about, and she never failed to pick fights and get into mischief. Again he let her think she was rebelling and being disobedient, when in fact she was moving along just the way he wanted her to. Headstrong and belligerent, in other words. And what a little brawler she was, too! When she was eighteen, her master gave her her first actual task; to find a particular man and kill him, as loudly and garishly as possible. She accomplished this by hiring some random thugs to harass and chase him into an apartment building, where she had permacrete explosives set up beforehand, and when the man and the thugs were all inside she set them off and sped away! The resulting explosion leveled the building and most of the surrounding three blocks, but it was a poor section of Nar Shaddaa so nobody really cared. The point was, the man was dead and at last she had some sign of approval and appreciation from her master! This was what her purpose in life was, then. To go wherever she was pointed and cause as much chaos and destruction as she could inflict. Chaos and destruction were fun! Thus she occupied herself for years, going through adulthood in a haze of drugs, sex, murder and carnage. Unfortunately for her, her master got killed one day, by up and coming Exchange boss Lidah Faine. Bereft of her master's guidance, Vivi gravitated toward the much more charismatic and beautiful Faine, more or less deciding that she was her new master and there was nothing anyone could do about it. Well, not if they wanted their life and limbs left intact, anyway. She brought most of her master's goons and assets with her too, letting Faine absorb most of it but keeping enough for herself to be able to operate independently. And for an out if need be, later on down the line. |
