Bio:
In the beginning.
Rhuic Gann was born in a small farming community on the backwater planet of Dantooine. Rhuic's father Eroc Gann was a wealthy land baron who owned several farms. Rhuic grew up with all the amenities his father's wealth could afford. He attended school, which was rare in the local farming community. The Gann family house held all the finest off world gadgets and Rhuic surrounded himself with friends and comforts. Early life was generally good for Rhuic as his father groomed him to someday run the family farms.
One fated day Rhuic accompanied his father off world on a business trip that was to ensure his future and increase the family wealth. Eroc and Rhuic were to fly to the planet Balmorra and make contact with the factory mogul Nor Val Nuck. The idea was to set into motion a plan that will turn the wilds of Dantooine into large processing factories allowing the Gann family a larger quantity output.
They never made it.
Coming from a small community Eroc Gann did not have a great appreciation for the need of security. As they made their through the streets of Bin Prime toward the designated meeting place Eroc was busy talking to Rhuic and not paying attention, He accidently walked into two armored Mandalorians who were on Balmorra from Dxun seeking supplies and possible recruit candidates. Instead of doing the smart thing and asking for forgiveness Eroc took affront to the incident. Used to being the local top dog Eroc began to curse out the Mandalorians. This ultimately proved fatal. Staring in shock at the smoking corpse of his father, Rhuic felt the first real chill of fear. Looking at his father’s killer he found himself staring down the business end of a blaster. What happened next remains a blur to Rhuic. He remembered the warriors speaking, deciding his fate. Then he found himself being pushed forcibly along. He was searched and taken to a docking bay where the Mandalorians kept a small transport ship. Rhuic found himself locked in a cargo hold that was filled with supplies. He was treated with brisk firmness during his trip but was not mistreated. The voyage took several days but eventually the trip ended. As the cargo doors opened and Rhuic was let out. He found himself on the edge of a clearing that almost resembled home. He was pressed into service to help unload the cargo from the ship. Rhuic was then whisked away in a land speeder to a camp that was not far from the landing area. Here the Mandalorians informed him that he was being drafted into the glorious Mando’ade and he should feel honored. Then they departed and left him to himself.
In the camp
Life in the camp was completely different from the cozy life Rhuic led before. Rhuic was scared. He had never been without the comforts of his family life before. Also he was nervous that he would be used against his family so when asked his name he gave only Gann. There were no freebies in the camp. If Gann wanted to eat, he had to work and the work was hard. Gann was given several chores to complete each day as the members of his new community assessed him for flaws. After several weeks of ever increasing work, Gann began to gain the attention of several clans that used the camp as a staging area, Clan Nix, a small clan whose numbers were reduced in conflict approached Gann and offered him membership. He accepted and began instruction in Mando'a as well as the principles and code of conduct of the Mandalorians. Gann worked diligently and applied himself in all areas attempting to prove his worth to the members of his new community. Gann was formally granted the name Gann Nix as a reward for his devotion and was given the clan sigil as a tattoo upon his right arm.
Although by the standards of the other boys his age Gann Nix was behind in his skills. They did not hold this against him due to his likeable personality that had won him the friendship of several youths who had agreed to help him hone his skills.
It had been well over year since Gann Nix's arrival in the camp before the Nix leadership determined he could be trusted to act in accordance with the code. He had been granted permission to wear basic armor and carry a side arm. He had shown promise in his skills and had signed up to join the ranks of the army. Gann Nix no longer thought of his old life, his concentration was dedicated only toward his continued survival

”I am never going to improve.” Gann said to his friend Tobias Nix. The hot summer air of the moon Dxun stifled Gann and made him cranky.
"Yes you will, you just have to keep practicing.” Tobias replied. He shifted his feet and brought his blaster rifle up, snug against his shoulder. "See? if you stand like this and rest the butt firmly you can steady the rifle and solidify your aim."
Gann watched his friend and nodded, he moved to emulate Tobias' stance. "like this?" he asked a little sheepishly.
"Better, now aim down the sight, concentrate and relax your breathing. When you are ready, ease the trigger gently."
Gann stilled his breathing, aimed, and pressed the trigger. BLAST the bolt streaked out completely missing the target. Gann lowered the weapon and sighed.
Tobias chuckled at his friends miss fortune, "Well done." he said sarcastically. "Next time, try aiming. Now do it again.
With a determined look, Gann took up the stance and tried again, and again, and again.
