Personality & Appearance:
Colvin is 6'2" 175 lbs. He has brunette hair pulled back into a pony tail and drak brown eyes. He wears treveler's clothing that is not too flashy nor too poor in appearance. He wears no distinguishing jewelry or symbols.

Colvin is reserved in personality speaking quietly and listening intently when others are speaking. He attempts to put others at ease with relaxed body language and slow hand motions. Underneath this calm exterior Colvin is constantly evaluating a situation to determine how circumstances can benefit him. Once he makes up his mind he follows his ideas through as he feels that to do anything halfway is foolish. He does not speak about his past and will hesitate to give out his last name unless absolutelt necessary.

History:

Colvin grew up in the city of Drev’starn on the planet of Bothawui. Coming from a somewhat influential family of human politicians hailing from Duro he was insulated from the world around him. All Colvin knew was that his parents were important people that met with important people. Despite this Raven, Colvin’s father, taught him how to fight from a young age stating that it was very important. While the other children in his inner circle were learning multiple languages and diplomacy Colvin learned the art of combat. He felt foolish and ashamed for this and would isolate from his peers.

It was not until he became a teenager that the truth of his family was revealed, his parents only posed as nobles from Duro but were in fact spies and assassins owing their allegiance to an ancient order known as the GenoHaradan. The truth came at the expense of the life of Colvin’s mother Leona Dashwind. She was slain after her cover was somehow blown and she was exposed as a spy. This was a dangerous time in the universe as the Clone War was raging across the galaxy.

The death of his mother was a huge blow to Colvin. Though his father managed to track one of her killers still on Bothawui he was not able to determine the reason for her assassination. Colvin wanted desperately to find out who had done this. Unfortunately, the search for the assassins that escaped Bothawui was delayed because of the Battle of Bothawui and no ships could leave the planet or at least none that wanted to survive. Raven Dashwind agreed to bring young Colvin with him in an attempt to avenge Leona’s death knowing that if her cover was blown than an attempt on him must simply have been botched. Raven reached out to his contact in the GenoHaradan but this produced unsatisfactory results.

The GenoHaradan considered her death to be beyond the affairs that Raven should have included himself in and he was told to stay on Bothawui and resume his post. It was bad enough his contact noted that two agents had been married and had offspring, failure to comply with the current mission would be met with extreme disapproval. Raven believed that he was compromised and refused to risk Colvin’s life by staying. In fact now he was unsure whether the Geno’s had something to do with Leona’s death.

Raven took Colvin and began his search for answers on Duro. On the journey Raven explained to Colvin that the Dashwind family is a legacy in the GenoHaradan, one of the few since its inception millennia before. The GenoHaradan are an organization that attempts to exert control over the galaxy through assassination. He was fourth in the male line to join the organization and was grooming Colvin for admission into the organization. Raven began to instruct Colvin on the subtle art of political intrigue and quiet assassination (only in theory though as there were no targets to hit). The search on Duro yielded a trail to Bespin from one of Raven’s contacts. That lead turned out to be an ambush that the Dashwind’s only barely survived. This was Colvin’s first action and the first time he had been forced to take another’s life. At only 16 it was a harrowing but eye opening experience. Thankfully his father had taught him how to use a blaster or that may have been his first and last fight. The last surviving assassin from the failed ambush gave up a lead to Coruscant and so again across the galaxy Raven and Colvin traveled.

Unfortunately the search ended there. The lead to Coruscant also proved to be a set up that took the life of Raven and the other two assassins. Colvin at the age of 18 was now alone. With only a few credits Colvin was not sure where to turn. There was no motive, nor a perpetrator that Colvin could identify in the death of his parents. It was not even clear why anyone wanted them dead besides the fact that they were spies.

It was at that point that the galaxy turned upside down. Smoke and flames from high above his current position were coming from the Jedi Temple. This probably explained why there were no authorities to interfere with the blaster battle that just took the life of his father. It turned out that the Jedi were traitors to the Republic! Indeed they had tried to assassinate the Supreme Chancellor and were only barely stopped from a full takeover of the Republic. Not that Colvin had much use for the Republic or the Jedi anyhow so he was not so worried overmuch about this development.

His more immediate concern was for his own life. Colvin knew that if his identity was revealed the same enemies that claimed the lives of his parents may claim his as well. Colvin paid for a transport away from Coruscant. He did not know if he should try to contact the GenoHardan (they may have been the ones who had slain his parents) or if he should return to Bothawui or Duro. With such a tangled weave of deception and no clear answers Colvin decided to stay away from what he knew. Instead he sought out employment in the underworld since this was his only viable skill and the legacy of his family, at least according to his father. So he went off to see the galaxy and hopefully one day avenge his parents’ deaths.

Colvin did not want to spend all of his credits on travel and decided to do short planet hops taking odd jobs until he could build up enough credits to perhaps learn to pilot and then acquire his own spaceship. Alsakan, Grizmalt, Corulag and then finally to Brentaal Colvin traveled. Keeping his head down and earning credits as well as making contacts as he moved along. Luckily it seemed that the trouble that he sought out had yet to follow him. On Corulag a cantina owner mentioned that he had a friend on a space station near Brentaal who was looking for good mechanics like Colvin. The woman's name was Maya. Colvin who was ready to move on agreed to look her up.

Colvin arrived only a day ago to the space station and has discovered that this Maya (apparantly a pretty girl)frequents the Gundark a cantina on the station. Colvin begins his search for Maya...
