Appearance Face Claim • Alex Pettyfer Height & Weight • 5’11” 170 lbs Overall Looks • Istvan is attractive, and he is, generally speaking, well aware of this. He keeps his hair trimmed short along the sides and back of his head, while allowing it to grow a bit longer along the top. The base of his hair is a medium brown, but it lightens to blonde in the areas where it's allowed to grow. His eyes are dark green. The skin of his face is fair, and generally free of marks. At some times, Istvan allows a beard of short stubble to grow. Other times, he remains clean-shaven. Istvan's body is solidly built, with lean, well-defined muscle. He's free of scars, but bears a tattoo on his right shoulder blade of the Red Court, a secret dueling fraterinty in his home city of Iziz. Istvan’s dress can vary from occassion to ocassion but these days, he favors a sturdy spacer’s pants and a white a dark vest that offers some light protection over a light shirt. Over that, he often wears a duster with amorweave lining, and some heavy boots. While Istvan prefers dress befitting the Galaxy’s rougher elements, he’s a noble through and through, and can dress as finely as anyone, for the right occassion. Personality Profile Istvan’s primary concern is usually Istvan. He is, at first blush, remarkably self-assured and prone to bluster and boast. He’s got a temper that burns hot and quick, and he’s just as eager to start a fight as he is to accept a challenge. On top of that, Istvan is stubborn as a bull and is prone to talking to superiors, friends, random people — almost anyone — with tones that range from uninterested disdain to open causticity. But the uncaring, sometimes-hostile outer shell is a mask of sorts to hide the softer side to Istvan’s personality. As much as he’s often feigned at wanting to escape the noble lifestyle, he loves it, and now that he’s actually gone from it, he often misses it dearly. And though he often tries to play the part of a hardened killer, there’s a hard line between being willing to fight and being willing to kill, and it’s not one he’s crossed oftne. Background Father • Rembrandt Evidian, 62, Lord of the Evidian estate Mother • Sarna Evidian, 63, Lady of the Evidian estate (if applicable) Siblings • Cyana Evidian, 21, sister Varian Evidian, 19, brother Other Important Connections • Enzo Kavela, 38 captain and commander Niquèla Torreyas Cheva deFe, 34, crewmate Carys Corbei, 77, crewmate Io Vanis, 26, crewmate Overall History • Istvan was the firstborn son to Rembrant and Sarna Evidian, the heads of Onderon’s small but powerful Evidian noble family. From an early age, his parents made it clear that they expected greatness of him. As a child, Istvan adored the attention doted on him. That didn’t change as he grew into his teenage years, but with two younger siblings behind him, he’d let his status as the firstborn and heir of the Evidian estate go to his head. He developed a cocky streak that he’d never grow out of, and found his status as a reason to laze and expect things to be handed to him, rather than work for them. His father, ever a believer in hard work, didn’t take kindly to Istvan’s change in attitude. As Istvan drifted further toward laziness, Rembrandt responded by raising expecations on his son. His studies grew more intensive, and large chunks of his free time were replaced with training and tutoring to groom him for his future as leader of the family. These efforts were only redoubled when the family discovered that Istvan bore a weak degree of Force sensitivity. Istvan, rather than using his father’s efforts as an opportunity to grow, resented and resisted them, with one exception — martial training. In this, he excelled, and even joined an underground dueling fraternity in Iziz. He was sharp with with melee weapons in particular, and boasted a solid — if not exceptional — record in his fights. In everything else — even the Force tutelage that he largely struggled in — Istvan lagged behind as he dug his heels in. He relationship with his father grew strained his his younger siblings were only too happy to go after Rembrandt’s favor instead. By the time he reached his early 20s, Istvan longed to escape the noble life and the expectations that came with it. When the Mandalorians invaded Onderon, he got his chance. While the rest of his family stayed behind, Istvan bolted from the world as the Mandalorian war machine descended upon it. With little in the way of money — Rembrandt cut him off from the family accounts shortly after he fled Onderon — Istvan drifted from world to world. He fell in with a crew of smugglers for a time. It was a tough life, but a profitable one as the war reached full swing. But the jaws of the Empire eventually snapped shut around them, just off of the Hydian Way. Istvan and the crew captain escaped, though the captain died as they crash landed on Corsin. Istvan joined a swoop racing crew on the world. For about a year, he raced. He wasn’t bad at it, but neither was he particularly good. He didn’t particularly like the work, but it was work, and it gave him the funds he sorely lacked. After roughly a year, Istvan, while at a favorite cantina of his, encountered Enzo Kavela, captain of the La Decadencia. After some pleading — with a helpful reference from a mutual acquaintance, Istvan was allowed to join the pirate crew on a trial basis. He’s been a member ever since. |
