Personal History-

Born in the slums of Coruscant, Petra's father was a habitual hallucinogenics user who was captured by the police for dissident actions; taken away to never be seen again. Her mother ran a whorehouse that saw business from political figures to men off the street. With such a 'delightful' upbringing, Petra was quite far from sainthood. Her mother, however, had dreams of Petra making something of her life; as such, she saved the money made from her business and placed it in a fund for college one day, as most parents do for their children.

Petra had no interest in college though, preferring to run with a rough crowd. Defensive tricks and schemes were picked up early to prevent her becoming slaved out to the masses by some of the unscrupulous pimps or worse that prowled the streets. Tricks only go so far, and at the age of seventeen, an attacker took her left eye, though she managed to fend him off. Bereft of one eye, Petra curtailed her actions in the slums and her adventures began to die down. returning to her mother, she believed that she would take the path that her parent had set for her. A chance meeting with Lim Hejin in a secluded nightclub changed her plans and she chose to go with him, becoming, one could say, the first true member of the Arcadia's crew.

Name- Olms Rosta
Age- Sixty
Height- Five feet; five inches
Weight- One hundred fifteen pounds
Allegiance- Self
Rank- Chief Engineer
Weapons-

• Modified 'over-and-under' slugthrower
  
• Small bouncy toy named Fred
  

Personal History-

Of Corellian descent, Olms was rather old even before the current battles that shaped the Empire. Never a firm believer of the 'Old Guard' and instead a scholar of the histories of long ago, Olms' views marked him as a possible anti-government figure. Making his way through the Outer Rim, Olms found his way to Tatooine. A job as a mechanic made him ideal for promotion in his field and he was soon working for a large corporation that helped build merchant vessels.

With such a wealth of useful knowledge, Olms decided that he would be better off leaving the Empire-controlled company, as he'd never truly been a supporter of the new government and their harsh tactics. Running into Hejin on one of his earlier ventures, Olms chose to sign on with the young man and, when the Arcadia came into play, was given the spot of Chief Engineer due to his wealth of knowledge in mechanical and engine fields.

Name- Klaus Rommel
Age- Forty
Height- Six feet; six inches
Weight- Two hundred ninety pounds
Allegiance- Self
Rank- Chief Weapons Officer
Weapons-

• Modified PLEX launcher system
  
• Various grenades
  

Personal History-

Klaus was 'birthed,' so to speak, by the cloners of Kamino, originally destined to be a bodyguard to a wealthy senator. Book smarts did not do so well for him in early life and he was cast aside to live or die on his own wits. Perhaps ironically, Klaus joined a troupe of traveling performers. Becoming a proverbial 'strong man' in the group, Klaus spent much of his time between building muscles and learning pyrotechnics, where he found a love of blowing stuff to kingdom come.

Taking his leave of the troupe when jealousy between a pair of performers caused far too many arguments, Klaus toured the galaxy, doing odd jobs here and there and mixing chemicals to see what made the biggest boom. On Nar Shaddaa, Klaus found himself jobless and homeless, and as such, signed onto a small protection racket where he threatened hapless shopkeepers for gang extortion. It wasn't his favorite work, but it put a roof over his head. His thug work changed when he crossed paths with Petra and Hejin. While not quit wanting to change his ways, he took off from the gang and joined up with the others, preferring a life of true pirate activity to the drudgery of threatening little old men for money.

Height- Six feet
Weight- One hundred ninety seven
Allegiance- Self
Rank- Chief Master-at-Arms
Weapons-

• Modified 11mm slugthrower
  
• Phrik-coated sword
  

Personal History-

Keji Genkai was born to 'aristocratic' parents on Alderaan. Both of his parents were staunch Republic supporters; believing that the Republic government was truly the best leadership that could exist. Along with the government propaganda, Genkai's parents passed on the art of the sword, as well as a love for martial arts, though of a myriad of styles, resulting in an interesting blend of techniques.

Every boy grows up, however, and Genkai reached the age where he could understand that the Republic was rotting from the inside; seeing past the lies his parents believed. Disillusioned and feeling as if his life had been a sham, Genkai abandoned his home and family, forsaking them for the life of a wandering hermit. His path took him to what was once the Outer Rim, where he met an enormous man named Klaus. Signing on with the Arcadia's crew was just the next step in Genkai's wish to redeem himself in his own eyes.

Name- Kevin 'Trigger' McGowan
Age- Seventeen
Height- Five feet; nine inches
Weight- One hundred sixty pounds
Allegiance- Self
Rank- Operations Officer
Weapons-

• Modified disruptor pistol
  
• Modified 11mm slugthrower
  
• Vibroknife
  

Personal History-

Trigger's skill deals with the computerized side of matters. It isn't to say he's not a good hand in a fight, but his true niche and ability shows when he's cracking a computer system or working the Arcadia's computer overtime to deal with some internal problems.

Born on Corellia, Trigger is an odd sort of outcast, more at home with machines than with living people. With parents who spent little time with him, it was easy enough for him to get into trouble. By the age of thirteen, he'd managed to gain a decent sized criminal listing, despite the efforts his parents now went through to keep him out of trouble. On his sixteenth birthday, Trigger was 'exiled' to Nar Shaddaa for the crime of breaking into a Corellian state database.

From Nar Shaddaa, it was a quick jump into the various non-law-abiding organizations where one with computer savvy could make a large amount of money. Joining the Arcadia's crew came when Hejin hired Trigger to do a bit of code-slicing on an Imperial freighter.
