Biography
Life on Sriluur
Leaving Sriluur

Taking on a personal name is rare among the Weequay who live on Sriluur, and it is said that Rar Lunko was given his name by a Weequay shaman shortly before leaving. Rar Lunko is believed to be the only member of his direct family to have ever left Sriluur, and therefor he is likely to be the only member of his family to have been given a name. Religious doctrine forbids any Weequay from leaving Sriluur without special dispensation from a shaman, though Rar Lunko was caught trying to leave without being given the privilege. Rar Lunko's life was spared from a quick and brutal execution when a shaman stepped in at the last moment to grant Rar Lunko the special dispensation that is required. This move by the shaman was a rare one, and before anyone could change their minds, Rar Lunko got off of Sriluur as fast as he could.
Wayward Weequay
Pressure Pirate

When the Pressure Pirates were allegedly betrayed by their former allies the Dark Star Hellions, a number of ships belonging to the Pressure Pirates were suddenly trapped in formerly friendly territory. Rar Lunko happened to be in the area and was hired by the Pressure Pirates to get into the newly hostile territory and retrieve the remaining ships without being noticed. Upon completion of the job, Rar Lunko was payed in stolen equipment that enhanced his ability to perform as an independent pirate. Upon dissolution of the Pressure Pirates, Rar Lunko quickly returned to his freelance work. Although brief, Rar Lunko's time with the Pressure Pirates would eventually prove to be a notable phase in his life.
Weequay Gathering

Although Rar Lunko is a loner at heart, especially for his kind, running with a crew again had left an impression on the tribe-born Weequay. Sliding quite easily back into his independent freelance piracy, things were technically better than ever for the "Son of Sriluur". Despite this, Rar Lunko found himself spending much of his free time drunkenly slaughtering huge creatures, such as the fearsome Draigon. Eventually it occurred to Rar Lunko exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it. Although he was not religious when he lived on his home world of Sriluur, Rar Lunko had been unwittingly fulfilling the Weequay tradition of sacrificing large beasts while abroad, in honour of the Moon God Quay. Rar Lunko questioned the sudden realization only temporarily, deciding that this truly was the source of his compulsions.
Figuring this out caused these compulsions to cease. The compulsions to sacrifice large beasts ceased anyway, if not the compulsion to mix binge drinking with his spice fueled benders. Rar Lunko, being at times painfully philosophical, spent time contemplating the meaning behind his realization. He decided that it wasn’t religion itself that had been pulling at him, it was his pure Weequay blood. Rar Lunko had rebelled against the traditional hive-mindedness of his species while living on Sriluur, but now that he lived far from home in the open galaxy, he thought perhaps he had rebelled a bit too much.

Rar Lunko began searching for and contacting any Weequay he could find living off of Sriluur. He had taken it upon himself to organize, with no real endgame in mind. Unsurprisingly, he found many of his kind working as criminal henchmen, and managed to convince some low level Weequay thugs to join him and follow his orders in battles against rival gangs of bandits. Finding their help invaluable, Rar Lunko keeps them aboard his ship to this day and even rents out their combat services on occasion. Much to Rar Lunko's chagrin, many Weequay proved to be born followers, but he was not above using that fact to his advantage.

Not every Weequay Rar Lunko contacted was interested in following any of his plans, however. Even less were interested Rar Lunko’s more ambitious ideas. It wasn’t until contacting Tzor Zyl, an equally proud Weequay, that Rar Lunko found someone who was interested in forming the Weequay brotherhood that he had in mind. Tzor Zyl was working for the Infinite Empire at the time, and the two of them decided they would form a network of information between the Weequay who live off of Sriluur, allowing each Weequay to continue working for whoever they wanted. Rar Lunko and Tzor Zyl kept in loose contact as planned, but shortly after Tzor Zyl began working for The Black Hand, he disappeared. The final HoloNet message Rar Lunko received from Tzor Zyl was a grim one and Tzor Zyl is now presumed to be dead.
Infinite Empire
Known Assets
Sacrilege

The Sacrilege is a ship Rar Lunko is known to operate out of when making deals within the black market. The ship is well traveled and has been spotted at locations all across the galaxy. Pilfered goods are expected to be on-board, as well as a group of Weequay working for Rar Lunko.
Acid Glider

The Acid Glider, named after the acidic seas on Rar Lunko's home planet of Sriluur, is a smaller and faster ship than the Sacrilege. Rar Lunko typically pilots the Acid Glider during scouting and ambush missions.
Sriluur Slave

The Sriluur Slave is Rar Lunko's custom S-Swoop. Purchased after he was already a lieutenant of the Infinite Empire, this dirty piece of machinery easily loans itself to Rar Lunko's unconventional image for a ranking member of the Infinite Empire.
