Outis Hawkwind (OO-dis HOK-wind) is an adult Amani of planet Maridun in Rolion sector.
He is presumed to be male, having been given a masculine-sounding name at the time of his birth sometime around Year 15 BCGT. Amanaman Station census archives indicate that he is the offspring of Rane Quest (believed to be the father) and a shaman called Skye Seafire (thought to be the mother) of the Charnoq tribe.
The Charnoqs are known in the city, frequently trading for technology which they use to gain advantages over competing tribes. They take their name from a local predator and are known to be active in the northeastern jungle.
Outis Hawkwind celebrated his coming of age in Year 2 CGT and distinguished himself in ritual combat against the rival Phalone tribe. Records indicate that he is called Lorekeeper of the Charnoqs.
While friendly Amanin are typically bilingual, Outis Hawkwind speaks Galactic Basic surprisingly well for a tribesman. He has also been heard using simple Bocce, Huttese and Mando'a with offworld traders, but does not read or write. He dictates to a scribe and affixes his personal seal to statements, a stamp depicting a trefoil knot.

The Argent Company
On Satunda, Melona 28 of Year 21, the Charnoqs became a registered mercenary force called the Argent Company. The business license was obtained from Outer Rim Consulting, formerly Cantrell Consulting, and came with corporate Centrepoint and Trade Federation accounts as well as a fortified command center in Myto Sector. Outis Hawkwind was the sole stockholder until Year 22, when the Charnoqs became the Guildmasters of Mandalore.
Outlaw Gambit
On Natunda, Yelona 5 of Year 21, an undisclosed agency retained the services of Fang D`Wurm to post a bounty on the head of Outis Hawkwind for the charge of smuggling. The charge claims that Hawkwind circumvented customs on Ord Mantell during the Galaxy Festival and obstructed traffic with sensor nodes. He contests the charges, claiming that the event organizers declined to protest his enterprise and no other authority holds legal jurisdiction there.
Falleen Federation Chronicle
Medical records have surfaced indicating that Outis Hawkwind was discharged from a Kheedar hospital on Datunda, Relona 24 of Year 22. The report indicates that he received cybernetic augmentation surgery, a procedure that was conducted by Surgeon-General Xynkro Velocio. CryoMed mechanical arms were custom built to fit Hawkwind and interface with his Amani biology, a procedure that required one phase of minor adjustments to perfect. According to the records, Outis Hawkwind refused convalescence and departed shortly after regaining consciousness.
Guild Dispute
The Argent Company became embroiled in a dispute between Guildmasters when Hondo Walker, president of the Dark Star Hellions, announced a protection service in the Derra system. Hawkwind claims that the service, advertised on the Guild cortex, constitutes coercion and thus violates the Bounty Hunter's Creed and threatens his Mandalorian clients.
On Natunda, Relona 10, of Year 22, the Argent Company mobilized against the Zann Consortium. Hawkwind is known to have collaborated with the rival Skulls swoop gang on Serroco and independently scouted and probed Zann positions on Derra I and Derra IV. The results of his raids were poor, yielding only a couple hundred scout droids destroyed or captured. Outis Hawkwind publicly appeared for the first time in a GNS broadcast addressing the dispute on Natunda, Welona 20.
Hawkwind was disconnected from the Guild cortex by its administrator, Teroch Qir-zan of MandaPharma, in a separate controversy related to his Guild dispute. The Argent Company protested Qir-zan's support of the Hellions service, and shortly after being purged from the net, a second bounty appeared on Outis Hawkwind's head, which claims that he is a clandestine agent of Zann and charges him with espionage and subterfuge. Hawkwind dismisses the accusation, claiming "the smuggling charge was more credible." He offers his own value for the head of Fang D`Wurm, the manager of the board that advertises his bounty.
