Charlena Halo is currently a Freelance businesswoman operating mainly in the southern end of the galaxy. She operates a small fleet of ships that she uses in her transport business, Halo Independent Enterprises. She currently operates out of her command ship, the Triumph.

History

Charlena was born to Briana and Joran Halo on Corellia, on a farm on the outskirts of the Corellian capital Cornet. From a young age, Charlena dreamed about adventure and traveling among the stars. When she was old enough, she would take her speeder bike out to the hills, away from the city lights and watch the stars twinkle in the night sky, imagining all the ships flying between them. Her parents were less than thrilled at this prospect, as they were farmers and wanted her to continue the family business. One of the ways she rebelled as a teen was to dye her hair from brunette to purple, which she still does to this day.

The rebellion and not wanting to be planetbound anymore all came to a head at the age of 21 after an argument with her parents, she finally decided to leave Corellia behind and take to the stars. Taking her speeder bike to the capital city Cornet, she traded it for credits and bought a ticket off the planet. With only the clothes on her back, she set out for adventure among the stars.

Ankh Biomedical Services

Her first job was working at Ankh Biomedical Services. She was hired by A`ab Driff Ka`ar (Called 'Driff by his friends and co-workers), the founder and leader of Ankh Biomedical Services. She moved up in the ranks from simple delivery pilot to managing other pilots. A few months after starting work at Ankh, the Driff, the leader and her friend was killed in a tragic accident. This catapulted the second in command, Tom Krusher to take the reigns and lead Ankh Biomedical. He quickly appointed Charlena as the Second in Command. Ankh had a successful run under Tom's leadership and Charlena learned a lot about how to conduct business.

Leadership

Tom Krusher lead Ankh Biomedical Services for many months. Soon, he decided to pass the mantle of leadership to Charlena. Within one week of assuming leadership, the first crisis hit. An employee of Ankh got into a fight with a member of the notorious Dark Star Hellions. This almost touched off a a conflict between the two groups which would have resulted in many deaths. Fortunately, the intervention of a few individuals and some hasty negotiation headed off a bloody conflict. She lead production and transport duties for several more months until the dissolution of Ankh Biomedical Services in Year 14 due to lack of sales and rising material costs.

Freelance

After selling off the most of the assets of Ankh Biomedical Services and sharing the profits of the sales with the former employees, Charlena decided to go freelance. She wanted to build ships and have the freedom to go where she wanted.. She started construction on her own shipyard in deep space near the Shownar system. Combined with the factories on Shownar II, she would be able to produce fighters and transport ships to sell to the galaxy.

In her business dealings, she met the owner of Meteora Enterprises, Chester Riddick. The two quickly struck up a friendship that ended up with Charlena working for Meteora Enterprises.

Meteora Enterprises

Charlena started building ships and moving materials around for Meteora. Soon, she became part of a team in the company to scout out new systems and After several months of scanning, nothing turned up and the search was abandoned and Charlena returned to her normal duties. Soon, Chester made her is second in command. Sadly, the pressures of being in such a high position again got to her, and Charlena had a breakdown.

Charlena left Meteora and found herself frequenting the Taverns and bars of Malastare. The pressure of leadership was too much and for a while, she worked on losing herself in the bottom of a bottle of Corellian Brandy. The moment that woke her up out of her stupor came when she was ambushed by bandits out next to a bar. With a little quick thinking and using her training, she was able to disarm the bandit, who found himself on the wrong end of his Imperial Scout Blaster. After this incident, Charlena decided that she needed to do more with life than become a barfly in some backwater drinking hole. She picked herself up, got back to her ship and sobered up.

Freelance Again

Once again, Charlena found her setting out on her own. Using her savings from previous business ventures, she was able to secure the sale of a Modular Taskforce Cruiser. Using this ship, and the others in her fleet, she would be able to start up a private transportation & hauling venture.


A New Force

After running transport jobs for almost half a year, a friend gave her a mysterious machine. Not knowing what it was, and always curious, Charlena played around with it for a bit. After figuring out that that you attach it to a person and turn it on, she did just that. After a bit of noise and a weird fuzzy sensation in her head, it stopped. The read out on the screen declared that this person is Force sensitive. She immediately put the machine down, baffled as to what it meant. She had heard of rumors about something called the Force, but other than that, she had no idea.

After a day of pondering what this meant, she contacted her friend Sienna Lynn, and found out it's meaning. She had the ability to do things and sense stuff that most other people couldn’t.

She read about the history of the Force, the different groups associated with it, and what it did. In the past, there were groups called the Jedi and Sith and others whose existence revolved around the Force. She was neither Jedi or Sith. She didn't believe in either of their philosophies.

She started meditating on her own, trying to focus on her surroundings and connection with the Force. At first, it was just a mere tickle at the back of her mind, like a shadow moving out of the corner of your eye. With more practice, she was able to bring this more to the front of her mind. It still takes a lot of focus and concentration to even feel it’s presence, but she feels it getting stronger with time.

She also knows that some Force sensitive people seek out others who are very skilled, and learn from them. She plans on doing this someday, but it may take a while to find one that meets her needs and schedule.


Fitout

Charlena quickly found out the galaxy is a dangerous place, which prompted her to acquire armor and weapons. Her current armor and weapons fitout provides her heavy protection, and ease of movement.

A heavily modified Heavy Battle Armor unit. Charlena paid technicians on an isolated moon on the galactic rim to give her armor that would provide maximum protection without restricting her movement abilities. While it can protect her from most blaster bolts, it is always better to dodge them first.


Charlena's A280

Charlena's prefered weapon, the A280. From a young age Charlena was trained in the use of weapons and the A280 fits her needs nicely, providing long range, heavy hitting firepower.


Charlena's Scout Blaster

Her sidearm was recovered from a bandit who tried to ambush her on Malastare. Charlena found the Imperial Scout Blaster to be a light, yet powerful blaster that fit her needs well.
