Biography

Childhood and Early Life

The life of children who grow up in the criminal underworld is an unpleasant affair, and Nox Callias' was no different. Being born to a leader of the influential crime family and her consort on the scum soaked moon of Nar Shaddaa, she quickly found herself involved in illegal activity from a young age, smuggling death sticks, spying on rivals, and steadily gaining a reputation and the scars to match. Due to her mother's profession she was cared for from a distance, never really knowing her in order to keep them both safe, of so she was told at least. She knew exactly what had happened to her father however, his corpse had been displayed in the streets after an attempted betrayal against his employer, using Nox's birth as blackmail in a bid to gain influence and money. Obviously, it did not go as planned.

By the time she was twenty, the woman was no stranger to the regular fights that her line of work entailed, from fists to blasters, few dared face her in a fair fight, especially considering her height and muscle bulk. It would earn her pretty penny in the underground pit fights, and it was one such fight that won her the Blackbird, after a rather smug smuggler bet his ship that he could beat her in hand to hand combat, then a few seconds later had his neck snapped. This led to her real skill being shown in her piloting, shaping up to be one of the best pilots in the sector, Nox quickly gained a reputation for being able to out manoeuvre system security and make a clean get away, making her highly sought after for everything from heists to chauffeuring less than savoury individuals.

Raider Career and Family Leadership

This however, was not up to her standards of excitement. Having been forged in the ring, she yearned for the rush of combat, and try as she might she couldn't achieve that with fast ships alone. It was then she decided to try out her latest venture, enlisting the aid of a several trustworthy mercs she raiding and capturing ships, not for the cargo, but for the crafts themselves. It was a simple affair, lock onto a larger ship, torch the airlock seals open, remove the crew, and sell it to the local black market dealers before it could be reported as stolen. Unlike some of her competitors, she wasn't overly cruel either, preferring to jettison the crew in escape pods above an inhabited planet rather than murder them outright.

It was after a regular raiding trip, coming home from selling her latest haul that she was met rather unceremoniously with a hand delivered letter. Detailing the death of her mother due to illness (which she didn't really care about) and her inheritance (which she cared about a lot more). Finding herself thrust to the top of her family's organisation, though sadly one that had fallen into disrepair due to her mother's own paranoid and isolationist ways, she took the opportunity to branch out, with the goal of reforming the Callias family into something she could be proud of.
