Summary
Rhaan Velik, a former Reman soldier turned tech dealer for the Orion Syndicate, has built a reputation as one of the galaxy’s most ruthless hunters of forbidden technology. Cold, calculating, and fiercely ambitious, Velik’s methods are as precise as they are deadly. With a team of fiercely loyal enforcers by his side, he scours the shadows of known space, securing experimental weapons and volatile devices for the Syndicate’s profit—or his own gain. Every mission brings him closer to ultimate power, and anyone who stands in his way becomes a stepping stone—or a casualty.
Appearance
Rhaan Velik is a tall, imposing Reman with a lithe but muscular frame, his pale skin marked with scars from battles and experiments alike. His red eyes gleam with a calculating intensity, and his sharp, angular face is usually set in a cold, unyielding expression. Dressed in muted, functional attire adorned with the occasional Romulan or Orion trinket, he carries an array of tools and concealed weapons on his person, hinting at both his craft and his readiness for a fight. Velik exudes a sense of restrained violence, his movements quiet but purposeful, as though he’s always a single step away from deadly action.
Personality
Velik is coldly analytical and methodical, preferring strategy over brute force. His years of experience as both a soldier and a criminal have honed his instincts, making him exceptionally shrewd and difficult to deceive. He views his position as a stepping stone to further power and independence, seeing his work with the Syndicate as a means to an end. Velik is pragmatic and avoids unnecessary cruelty, though he has little empathy for those he manipulates or disposes of to achieve his goals. Loyalty is rare in his line of work, and Velik only extends trust to his inner circle of goons, each selected for their unique skills and unwavering allegiance. His detached demeanor hides a sharp mind and a relentless ambition that have yet to meet an obstacle he can’t overcome—or eliminate.
History
Rhaan Velik was once a soldier, bred and trained to be one of the Empire’s most formidable assets. However, life as an expendable asset quickly soured him. Seeking independence, he abandoned his post, using his combat and technical skills to navigate the dangerous fringes of the galaxy. His talents attracted the attention of the Orion Syndicate, a criminal network where he quickly rose through the ranks due to his unique skill set and willingness to obtain highly dangerous, often experimental technology. Velik has grown infamous for acquiring anything from powerful weapons to advanced cloaking devices, always with the aim of securing a profitable edge for the Syndicate—or himself.
