An exceedingly nondescript Corellian with blond hair and brown eyes manages to stand out by his archaic appearance. The old fashioned nomad's greatcoat would be enough, but the Corellian cutlass is over the top while the pair of dueling pistols hanging from his hips are just bizarre. All of this over what appears to be a CorSec uniform with the blouse lapel buttoned open caps the ludicrous outfit. The sum of such disparate components conspires to overcome his easily overlooked features to create a monumentally memorable figure.
The Journey So Far:
Jospi Renning comes from an old family. His roots trace back to the prehistory of Corellia. Honor was the motto by which he was raised. Like most Corellians, personal honor was instilled in Jospi, but family honor was paramount. Renning's were nothing without family.
While the family's holdings were vast and he had no need to work, Jospi joined the Corellian Sercurity Force early, intending to become an investigator. When the Empire rose from the collapse of the Galactic Republic, the imperials sent advisers to the Corellian system to act as their eyes and ears within the autonomous military.
The imperials were insufferable in their superiority. OFten ordering their fellows, and even superiors, about as if they were enlisted soldiers, they added insults to such injury in belittling the people they liaised. Jospi sublimated his personal honor in order to maintain his family's honor, but when one of the advisers made lewd comments about his sister and then began to quite bluntly proposition her, Renning stepped up.
Telling the man to apologize for his rude behaviour, he was shocked when the imperial adviser ordered him to immediately report for duty. Reminding him that he was in no position to levy orders, Jospi again told the imperial to apologize. The imp cuffed him upside his head and demanded that he leave. Renning, publicly challenged, accepted and chose cutlasses. Drawing his own blade and seeing that the adviser was not similarly equipped, he asked for someone to provide him a cutlass. With grins from many of the other Corellian military present, a sword was thrust hilt first at the officer. The imperial in his anger accepted the weapon and charged at Jospi.
At the adviser's onrush, Renning dropped back on one hand while thrusting forward with his cutlass catching his opponent in the chest. Startled at the blade protruding from his back, the Empire's agent made a silent "o" and fell to the floor dead. Family honor satisfied, he rose to accept his accolades. He then noticed the looks of horror upon the faces of the other guests. Only then did he realize that perhaps he had gone too far. All of the guests began to rapidly remove themselves from the party. A single officer approached Jospi. "The Imperials will demand your arrest and extradition to Coruscant to stand trial on the charge of murder. While there will be a trial, it will be quick and the verdict will be guilty. Flee while you still can, boy."
Renning quickly made his way home and packed what he could. Amongst his other gear, he took a pair of old dueling pistols that his family could explain as antiques which he stole to sell. He fled to the spaceport and departed for the first transport leaving for the Rim.
Jospi spent several years using his skills and talents at flying and mechanics to make a quiet living. The tricks of the trade that he was taught in CorSec became the foundation for computer slicing to earn extra credits. Thus did he become known to the nascent rebellion and recruited to help them in their overthrow of the Empire.
Faces, Past and Present:
Jospi Renning has a large extended family who still live on Coruscant. They have suffered for his actions. Tried in absentia and found guilty, the Empire has put much pressure on Corellia to punish the Renning family in lieu of carrying out a death sentence on their scion. How much Renning knows or understands of these actions, remains to be seen.
