Something was lacking in life and Impa could sense it. Everything felt so temporary and his works meant nothing after the feeding was through. Other sentients conquer and control while the ancient Anzati had nothing to show for their time. Anzati often view themselves as apex predators, but Impa found himself a stone's throw away from a gluttonous boogeyman. Maybe the daily involvement in local cultures central to his methods expanded his worldview, but he lacked the hallmark lust for soup typical of his race. More an more Impa grew interested in the nature of the Anzati. How could a genetically superior species succumb to base gluttony?

Biography

Youth and Early Adulthood

Impa Xio was born on a forgotten planet in the Outer Rim and raised among the stars. Brought up in a traditional Anzati family unit, he learned to live and feed off of the "Soup" or "Luck" of sentient life forms. Mentored by his parents, Impa never called any one place home for long. While most other species have tendencies toward parental bonding; typical Anzati families are bound by a predatory focus on consumption and propagation of the species. When he came of age, Impa split from his parents to feed on his own, and like many Anzati Impa did not maintain contact with his parents past adulthood.

Most Anzati learn a craft to facilitate the collection of meals; some train in combat arts offering services as assassins and bounty hunters. Their long lives provide ample time to master a craft and their feeding habits are supported by these trades. Impa however, displayed early a natural penchant for art. Exploiting it for meals for as long as he can remember, wherever credits were in excess so to were talented artists with potent "Soup". Preferring pretty women and credits to blasters and vibroblades, Impa found himself at home.

Transition Period

Over time Impa began to notice a peculiar shift in his own priorities. His lust for "Soup" - while ever present - started to conflict with (and even take a backseat to) his craft. What was at one time a means, eventually became an end. Struggling with his nature for the first time in life, his worldview would slowly warp. Were the Anzati truly the apex creatures he'd been raised to believe? The question obsessed him and he slowly but surely came to the conclusion that there had to be more.

For the first time, Impa adopted a name with perminence and sought to integrate into galactic society. Meals were made sparse to discipline his appetite. "Soup" was consumed over time rather than overnight. Soon enough he grounded himself in the Woldona sector and found lasting work with The Exchange.
