Jorvan Drey

Jorvan Drey is a native of the planet Kashyyyk. He was an only child that was born into a loving and successful family. His father owned and operated a small, but lucrative, trading business that delivered supplies to the planets in the Kashyyyk system and was away on business most of the time. When Jorvan turned 5 years of age his father agreed to take him and his mother, who often cared for Jorvan while his father was away, on a routine run to one of the outer planets in the system. Shortly after coming out of hyperspace they were attacked and boarded by pirates. The pirates, bloodless mercenaries that they are, executed Jorvan’s parents in front of him. Jorvan would have suffered the same fate but for the mercy of one pirate named Byron Drey who took pity on the young Wookiee cub. You may notice that Jorvan bears the last name of Byron, this is because young Jorvan did not speak for some time after the death of his parents. Needing to call him something, Byron Drey gave him is own last name and decided to use Jorvan as his first name, which Byron later confessed was the name of his deceased son and may be why Byron originally took pity on the young Wookiee. Jorvan’s true identity and Wookiee name are known only to himself.

Middle Years

Thrust into a brutal and cruel new world Jorvan quickly learned to fend for himself. His only refuge was found in Byron Drey, who became a mentor and took Jorvan under his wing and taught him everything he knew. Eventually Jorvan and Byron cultivated a friendship, despite Jorvan’s deep resentment of the pirates as a whole. As the years went by Jorvan became a useful addition to the pirates because of his natural ability with all things technical. He kept himself busy repairing ships and droids, rarely venturing out on raids due to his dislike of senseless violence. When Jorvan was 25 years of age a rival band of pirates attacked their base. During the ensuing firefight, Jorvan’s friend and mentor, Byron, was killed. With no reason to stay any longer, and seeing an opportunity to escape during the chaos, Jorvan made his getaway in an old YT-1300 he was refitting. Though he was very upset at the death of his only friend, he did look forward to a new life away from all the violence and hate; concluding this sad chapter of Jorvan Drey’s life.

Recent Years

Jorvan wandered the galaxy for some time before he came across 2 young wookiee sisters who had been beaten and left for dead. Jorvan decided to take them back to his YT-1300 and see what he could do for them. Fully healed and with nowhere to go the sisters asked to stay with Jorvan due to his kind nature and being a fellow wookiee. Jorvan did not return to Kashyyyk on account of his having been raised away from his own kind and he felt uneasy about returning there. Jorvan’s path lead him to the Avance government where he worked for sometime before leaving to find better opportunities elsewhere. Eventually he found those opportunities with Aurora Technologies, where he worked first in security and then as an engineer. Jorvan doesn’t know where the rest of his adventure will take him but he is excited. Though he had a rough and unexpected beginning he has never lost hope or used that as an excuse. He holds steady and true to his heart amongst the storm, refusing to waiver in the midst of adversity.
