COMMODORE VARON FARANI
?? :: Hapes / Alliance of Free Planets :: Captain of the Arbitrator
Currently with Task Force 42
Character Background
Varon was a fighter pilot, serving under Commodore Aaron Belargic. When Belargic absconded with the Princess, Varon was named his successor, and sent to hunt him down. After the Hapes Consortium joined the Alliance of Free Planets, Varon and his ship were considered "tainted" as a result of spending so much time outside the Cluster, and so have been volunteered to represent the Consortium in any joint operations between the Alliance members, such as Task Force 42.
Raw Material
Commodore Farani commands a squadron of three Hapan battle cruisers (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Nova-class_battle_cruiser), capable of embarking between them 72 fighters and 18 bombers. His command ship is the Arbitrator; the other ships are the Andalia and the Ascendant.
Varon was never supposed to command anything, and his status is considered highly inappropriate in Hapan circles. He began in a much more respectable/acceptable role as a Miy'til pilot. His mother - the High Admiral of the Hapan Navy - is not especially happy about his rank: he was the appropriate choice to succeed Commodore Belargic, but it puts her uncomfortably close to the appearance of nepotism. Assigning him to work with the Alliance Defense Forces - effectively placing him in exile - was her attempt to contradict that appearance.
Plot Ideas
Border patrols. Catching smugglers, etc.
Occasional layovers at Jovan Station?
Stuff in and around Bothawui. Varon's ship probably gets "borrowed" to ferry around Senators from time to time.
Might be fun to throw a male Hapan into the path of a female Cizerack: explore the differences between the two matriarchies based on how Varon is treated, versus how he expects to be treated? Could also be interesting to have him work with female officers from male dominated worlds (maybe even someone like Twi'leks?), to see how they react to him treating them like it's a matriarchy, etc.
Meeting some Senators? Maybe some people (mistakenly?) think that getting cozy with the son of the Consortium's navy boss could translate into political leverage somehow.
Existing Relationships
Trance Farani - His mother. High Admiral of the Royal Hapan Navy.
Aaron Belargic - His former CO.
Castus Annen - His new CO, with Task Force 42.
