Introduction
Derrik was born on his homeworld of Endor. Shortly after his birth, his family was captured and enslaved by the Hutts, primarily for their musical talent. As Derrik grew up, he picked up a number of skills from his captors' guards, such as the correct handling of blasters and bladed weaponry. When he reached the age of 20, he was sent on a job by the Hutts to capture a Coruscanti ambassadorial vessel. When he got on board, his boarding party was immediately slain. In a fit of rage, he threw the two thermal detonators he had with him into the cockpit, and immediately abandoned ship. As he exited, the cockpit of the ship was blown to pieces, opening it to the vacuum of space. He watched on as the ambassadors were sucked out of the ship and burned by the system's sun.
Realising that his supervisor had been killed in the firefight, he took control of the ship he had arrived on and left the Hutts' service and his parents behind.
Biography
Early Years
Derrik was born on the Yuzzum homeworld of Endor, also the homeworld of the Ewok species, a delicacy amongst Yuzzums. When Derrik was roughly 3 standard year old, a acquisitions party was sent to Endor by the Hutt crimelord, H'aek Diu Tisjuic. Derrik and his family were captured due to their race's great musical ability. However, given Derrik's age at the time, he was separated from his parents, and placed in the care of H'aek's most trusted soldiers. These men, known as the Dark Hand, were some of the most elite combatants in the galaxy, with many members who had survived firefights with hundreds of Imperial and Rebel soldiers. As such, they had an extremely rough nature, which Derrik acquired quickly. By the age of 20, Derrik had been trained in the use of all blaster weaponry, and had a good understanding of non-projectile weaponry, demonstrating a high proficiency in both areas, and due to this, was appointed as a member of the Hand. However, he was still enslaved to the Hutts. One fateful day, Derrik was given a mission to intercept a Coruscanti ambassadorial ship, breach the hull and capture the ambassadors with a squad of troopers who had been assigned to him. However, when they breached the ship, they discovered it to be a trap. Derrik's squad was immediately cut down by heavy blaster fire, and Derrik was only saved by the fact that he was leading from behind. Taking cover behind his airlock, Derrik threw a pair of thermal detonators through the airlock, before shutting it and detaching immediately. Within seconds, the ship was engulfed in a ball of flame, and Derrik watched on as the ambassadors were ripped from their ship and cooked in the light of the system's sun. As he was the only survivor, and seeing as how his slave beacon had taken severe damage during the firefight, Derrik chose to leave the service of the Hutts forever, and moved on to be a freelance mercenary. However, he required extensive cybernetic implants before he could begin to function properly once more.
Battle of Kashyyyk
It is suggested that Derrik was present for the Battle of Kashyyyk, as his personal ship, the Serpent, was seen within the area at the time. Some reports were also made of a large, blue, creature attacking both Imperial and Republic forces, although no positive identification could be made. The creature was also rumored to have eaten numerous juvenile Wookiees, a habit comparable to that of Derrik's consumption of woklings and the children of numerous other races.
Imperial Record
Throughout his life, Derrik has racked up a number of criminal offenses, primarily under Imperial law, although he has also broken many Republic laws as well. Following is a list of all crimes committed in Imperial Space:
1 count of Treason.
7 counts of Terrorism, with 2 unknown cases associated.
2 counts of Assassination of Imperial officials.
12 counts of Murder.
3 counts of Kidnapping.
2 counts of Theft (Total established value ~1,500,000 credits).
58 counts of Transportation of Contraband within Imperial Space.
He has also been associated with the late Fuikai Mutmai, and is believed to be the only remaining member of Fuikai's gang to survive the Spectral Services Unlimited and Granse Confederacy backed massacre at one of the gang's hideouts.
Recent Misadventures
Derrik's most recent crime was the kidnapping and ransom of one Credence Malafar (deceased as of Y13 D66), for which he gained 30 million credits. Whilst holding Malafar hostage aboard his ship, he repeatedly escaped from Spectral Services Unlimited forces, sustaining light damage. Due to his own weapons being temporarily disabled, he was unable to fire upon the enemy ships, and was forced to retreat into deep space. However, he shortly returned to the system and hid out upon a moon within the system, right under the noses of pursuing forces. In the end, Malafar was released back to his ship and the ransom was paid.
The Serpent
Derrik happens to be the proud owner of the Cloakshape/H fighter known as 'the Serpent'. He manage to acquire it using the funds he received from ransoming a random member of the public, and now highly covets the ship, refusing to allow any others to touch it, lest they damage it.
