Impa Xio was born on a backwater planet in the Outer Rim and raised among the stars. Childhood consumed by the ancestral trade, he learned to live and feed off of the "Soup" or "Luck" of sentient life forms. Guided 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 pragmatism and propagation of the species. Delightedly, Impa would eventually split from his parents to feed on his own. Current whereabouts of his parents are unknown, but are assumed by Impa to still be out feeding.

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. Anzati rarely stay in any one place for long and move on once they've finished feeding. Bound together by their predatory natures his family moved from star system to star system until Impa came of age to feed on his own. Like many Anzati, Impa and his family split apart after his coming of age, unlikely to meet again.  
  
Anzati on their own usually learn a craft to facilitate the collection of meals; some train in military arts and offer services as assassins, others take up bounty hunting. Impa however, attracted his prey by way of a natural penchant for art. Wherever credits were in excess his skills were well paid for, and potent meals practically came knocking. Being identified as an Anzati and marked for hunting was always a potential danger, but so long as his meals were planned he'd always have time to pack up and leave.

Most Anzati learn a craft to facilitate their hunger, some train to become assassins and bounty hunters. Their long lives provide ample time to master a field and their feeding habits are supported by these trades. Though Impa studied combat arts (as most Anzati do), he ultimately found his niche working as an artist. Impa discovered that wherever artists were in demand, rich and noteworthy people with potent "Soup" gathered.

Though largely content with his arrangements in life, Impa could never shake the impression his parents left on him. They pursued meals with such lust and abandon... Impa feared a similar fate awaited him. To him, it seemed and unsustainable path and he could already feel his lust for "Soup" growing. What was the point? Why feed to feed when all that awaits is madness? Nearly two hundred years had past now and nothing cumulative could be shown for it. His parents used to liken other species to cattle, but to Impa they were delusional. How can cattle organize and command empires that span the galaxy while the ancient Anzati have little to show for their time - reduced to space faring boogeymen. There had to be another option.

Impa's lust for "Soup" was as strong as any other Anzati's, but he began to develop an appreciation for the world and circles he moved in. Conflicted, Impa became more and more concerned about his future and what his endless pursuit of "Soup" would lead to. Now struggling with his nature for the first time in life, Impa's worldview would slowly warp.

Enthralled by accounts of Anzati Jedi that abstained from feeding, Impa researched their origins as he traveled. In the mean time he'd temper his needs through the maxim "you are what you eat". Often Impa would abstain completely, though lethargy and hunger were usually the only results. He'd turn to his art during times like this, growing more appreciative of the galaxy around him and less concerned with the primal drive for "Soup". Eventually this shift in focus would lead him to associating with [[The Exchange]] mercenaries and entering the galactic art scene publicly.

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. Anzati rarely stay in any one place for long and move on once they've finished feeding. Bound together by their predatory natures his family moved from star system to star system until Impa came of age to feed on his own. Like many Anzati, Impa and his family split apart after his coming of age, unlikely to meet again.

Most Anzati learn a craft to facilitate their hunger, some train to become assassins and bounty hunters. Their long lives provide ample time to master a field and their feeding habits are supported by these trades. Though Impa studied combat arts (as most Anzati do), he ultimately found his niche working as an artist. Impa discovered that wherever artists were in demand, rich and noteworthy people with potent "Soup" gathered.

Transition Period

Impa's lust for "Soup" was as strong as any other Anzati's, but he began to develop an appreciation for the world and circles he moved in. Conflicted, Impa became more and more concerned about his future and what his endless pursuit of "Soup" would lead to. Now struggling with his nature for the first time in life, Impa's worldview would slowly warp. The conception of the Anzati as great apex predators was no longer as monolithic an idea as he had been raised to believe. On a quest for renewed purpose, his travels would eventually lead him to the Woldona sector which would in turn lead to a permanent position with The Exchange.

The Exchange

Having developed friendships with Exchange members like Jorel Talas, Arku Feetoc, and Brendak Kolto, Impa moved into the Woldona system. Pursuing lucrative engagements developing power armor designs for the local Exchange aligned mercenary crews, he would soon find himself ingratiated into the local scene. Following Mika Noris's coup of The Exchange in year 12(?) and the sale of the Woldona sector to Black Sun, Impa was invited to join TXC as a member in full standing, joining them on their exodus into deep space.
