[[Chir'daki]] is a "retired" Bounty Hunter, about whom very little is known beyond his professional reputation. He is currently employed as a Lieutenant in the criminal organisation [[Black Sun]], and is known to be connected with the reformation of the Bounty Hunters' Guild. His name is a Twi'lek word that translates into Basic as ''Death Seed'' - the name of a virilant parasitic disease.
+
'''Chir'daki''' is a bounty hunter, Force user, Black Sun Lieutenant, and enigma. He is allegedly Romo Mantana, an Imperial technician believed dead after a "Force-induced episode"; but those records show signs of having been tampered with. He is aggressive and animalistic in his approach to hunting and killing, relying on brute force and strength in lieu of finesse. His chosen alias derives from the Twi'lek name of the Death Seed plague; similarly, his ship - the ''[[Blue Shadow]]'' - is named after a virus.
  
When hunting, Chir'daki wears the armour of an ''ori'ramikade'' - a Mandalorian Supercommando.
+
He is an associate of many groups, including Black Sun, Imperial Intelligence, and the Bounty Hunters' Guild; and also has ties to the Sith [[Darth Callidus]], and the shadow organization [[Sarlacc]]. He has appeared in the lives of both [[Hugo Montegue]] and his son [[Vittore Montegue|Vittore]] as a frequent antagonist, and has recently become something of a nemesis for [[Emelie Shadowstar]] as well.

== History ==
 +
The earliest records of Chir'daki date from around the time of the Battle of Endor, with him working as a mercenary and hunter for the information broker [[Atton Kira]]. On a contract from [[R.S. Esalis]], he hunted and captured [[Hugo Montegue]], turning him over to the custody of [[Imperial Intelligence]]. Some time later he began his association with the Black Sun crime cartel and, by [[7 ABY]] was a Lieutenant in their organization. In that capacity he was approached to help restore the Bounty Hunters' Guild, and broker cooperation between the new Guild and Black Sun.

+
Along with several members of the [[Bounty Hunters' Guild]], Chir'daki assisted in an uprising against the Imperial Occupation on [[Mandalore]].
The individual known as Chir'daki is a man of mystery. He keeps his history - even his real identity - a closely guarded secret, hiding behind the character that he has spun for himself over the course of his employment. Though a Bounty Hunter by profession, he is well known for his difficulty in understanding the concept of "dead or alive": his targets rarely make it out of an encounter with him in one piece.
+
  
What little is known about him is derrived mostly from rumour, but a few assumptions can be made. Based on his actions and combat prowess, it is widely assumed that Chir'daki has some sort of military background. Rumour also has it that he was raised on Ryloth: a possible explanation for his choice of alias, and his fluency in the Twi'lek language.
+
In [[10 ABY]] he was contracted by the shadow organization [[Sarlacc]] to eliminate [[Emelie Shadowstar]], whose extra-vocational criminal activities were drawing unwanted attention to [[Silenus Corp]] and it's financials, putting the covert association between Sarlacc and Silenus at risk of exposure. The hit was initially thwarted by the intervention of [[Vittore Montegue]], and then further when Emelie Shadowstar went to ground on [[Cloud City]]. The bounty was later rescinded when Shadowstar severed her connections to Silenus.
  
Most of Chir'daki's bounty profits are reinvested into equipment and supplies for his work; as such he has no permenant home. He prefers to work alone, rarely assisted by anything aside from a collection of assorted droids he has amassed over the years.
+
Shortly thereafter, Chir'daki accepted a contract that placed him on retainer for [[Ambassador Wrath]] of the [[Ouishii kajidic]].
  
==== Secret Past ====
+
== Relationships ==
 +
'''[[R.S. Esalis]]''' is one of Chir'daki's past employers who hired him for various contracts: perhaps most notably the apprehension of the bounty hunter [[Hugo Montegue]].
  
Contrary to rumour, Chir'daki's military experience is actually fairly limited: he - Romo Mantana - served for several years as a Ground Technician attatched to the Starfighter division of the Imperial Navy, and recieved little more than basic military training. He was known by his peers and superiors as a quiet, reserved, and completely unremarkable individual, and was passed over for promotion numerous times.
+
'''[[Hugo Montegue]]''' was once captured by Chir'daki on an Imperial contract, and rendered to Imperial custody. Once Hugo was released, Montegue was forced to grudgingly cooperate with Chir'daki during the rebuilding of the [[Bounty Hunters' Guild]].
  
Years into his service, he began to experience wild mood swings that Medical Officers attribured to stress - they were in fact the first manifestations of his latant Force potential, feeding of his own negative emotions. Delegated to a backwater ground installations because of concerns over his mental wellbeing, he found himself on the wrong side of an abusive superior who felt it necessary to take out his own feelings of inadequacy on his subordinates. During one such incident, Mantana entered into one of his Force-fuelled rages and killed his superior officer. Seeing no option but to flee, he managed to steal a shuttle and escape the system.
+
'''[[Darth Callidus]]''' summoned Chir'daki to [[Onderon]], where he offered to take him as a student. Callidus gave him the name Darth Venator (meaning "hunter"), and occasionally calls on Chir'daki to help with his dark side machinations.
  
Mantana fled to [[Ryloth]], and abandoned his ship in orbit, descending to the planet in an escape pod. He was found by a Twi'lek huntsman; Mantana feigned amnesia, and the huntsman agreed to care for him until he "recovered". With no name, Mantana became referred to by the Twi'lek as ''Chir'daki'' - the Twi'leki name for Death Seed, a deadly parasitic disease: the Twi'lek jokingly called Mantana a parasite, and because of exposure to the harsh sunlight on Ryloth, he claimed that Mantana often looked like he was suffering from skin necrosis - a symptom of Death Seed. In return for his care and hospitality, Chir'daki assisted the Twi'lek in his hunting, and learned most of his combat skills.
+
'''[[Vittore Montegue]]''' resents Chir'daki for the role that he played in the capture of his father; and the subsequent role he played in Vittore's own capture and short-lived Imperial incarceration. Chir'daki was involved in the attempt to kill [[Emelie Shadowstar]], who Vittore inadvertently saved; Vittore is one of the few people who have escaped from Chir'daki's attempts to kill them and, having had the kill order rescinded, deeply regrets no longer having an excuse to kill him.
  
Eventually, he decided to leave his surrogate home, and return to the galaxy at large. Justifying his actions to himself as "bringing justice" to those who deserved it, he hired himself out first as a mercenary, and later as a bounty hunter. To hide his true identity he went to great lengths, self-inflicting the distinctive scar across his face to generate a distinctive feature that people were more likely to remember than his true appearence beneath, and surrounding himself with an cloak of mystery so that the only "facts" about him would be based on sketchy rumour, if not wild speculation.
+
'''[[Emelie Shadowstar]]''' was targeted by Chir'daki at the request of [[Sarlacc]], because her illegal activities risked drawing undue attention to [[Silenus Corp]], and by extension to Sarlacc, one of it's customers. Shadowstar escaped from his first attempt to kill her with the help of [[Vittore Montegue]] and, after liquidating her involvement with Silenus Corp, the contract was withdrawn and a no-kill issue was ordered, making Emelie "the one that got away", to some extent.
  
==== Black Sun ====
+
'''[[Ambassador Wrath]]''' is the leader of the [[Ouishii kajidic]], and is a businessman who, on occasion, finds it necessary to eliminate the opposition (or a troublesome business associate) in a literal sense. For some time, Chir'daki has been his preferred contractor for such things, and with Wrath's recent expansion into the [[Greater Javin]], Chir'daki has recently accepted an invitation to be a permanent part Wrath's entourage, as an opportunity to get close to [[Emelie Shadowstar]] and [[Vittore Montegue]], to antagonise them until such a time as he is permitted to kill them.
  
Chir'daki first came to the attention of Black Sun early in his career, when he began working as a low-level thug on a contract-by-contract basis. Eventually, he impressed a few members enough to earn himself a permenant place on their payroll, and worked his way up through the hierarchy from there. He often worked directly for [[Sasseeri Reeouurra]], acting as one of her Lieutenants.
+
== Out Of Character ==
  
Having adopted a administrative role within the Black Sun organisation, Chir'daki's career as a Bounty Hunter entered a slump, although he continued to interact with that world, often feeding information to former Hunter contacts about noteworthy Black Sun bounties. Recently, he was approached by his old acquaintance [[Darven]], concerning the reformation of the Bounty Hunters' Guild.

Chir'daki is a bounty hunter, Force user, Black Sun Lieutenant, and enigma. He is allegedly Romo Mantana, an Imperial technician believed dead after a "Force-induced episode"; but those records show signs of having been tampered with. He is aggressive and animalistic in his approach to hunting and killing, relying on brute force and strength in lieu of finesse. His chosen alias derives from the Twi'lek name of the Death Seed plague; similarly, his ship - the Blue Shadow - is named after a virus.

He is an associate of many groups, including Black Sun, Imperial Intelligence, and the Bounty Hunters' Guild; and also has ties to the Sith Darth Callidus, and the shadow organization Sarlacc. He has appeared in the lives of both Hugo Montegue and his son Vittore as a frequent antagonist, and has recently become something of a nemesis for Emelie Shadowstar as well.

History

The earliest records of Chir'daki date from around the time of the Battle of Endor, with him working as a mercenary and hunter for the information broker Atton Kira. On a contract from R.S. Esalis, he hunted and captured Hugo Montegue, turning him over to the custody of Imperial Intelligence. Some time later he began his association with the Black Sun crime cartel and, by 7 ABY was a Lieutenant in their organization. In that capacity he was approached to help restore the Bounty Hunters' Guild, and broker cooperation between the new Guild and Black Sun.

Along with several members of the Bounty Hunters' Guild, Chir'daki assisted in an uprising against the Imperial Occupation on Mandalore.

In 10 ABY he was contracted by the shadow organization Sarlacc to eliminate Emelie Shadowstar, whose extra-vocational criminal activities were drawing unwanted attention to Silenus Corp and it's financials, putting the covert association between Sarlacc and Silenus at risk of exposure. The hit was initially thwarted by the intervention of Vittore Montegue, and then further when Emelie Shadowstar went to ground on Cloud City. The bounty was later rescinded when Shadowstar severed her connections to Silenus.

Shortly thereafter, Chir'daki accepted a contract that placed him on retainer for Ambassador Wrath of the Ouishii kajidic.

Relationships

R.S. Esalis is one of Chir'daki's past employers who hired him for various contracts: perhaps most notably the apprehension of the bounty hunter Hugo Montegue.

Hugo Montegue was once captured by Chir'daki on an Imperial contract, and rendered to Imperial custody. Once Hugo was released, Montegue was forced to grudgingly cooperate with Chir'daki during the rebuilding of the Bounty Hunters' Guild.

Darth Callidus summoned Chir'daki to Onderon, where he offered to take him as a student. Callidus gave him the name Darth Venator (meaning "hunter"), and occasionally calls on Chir'daki to help with his dark side machinations.

Vittore Montegue resents Chir'daki for the role that he played in the capture of his father; and the subsequent role he played in Vittore's own capture and short-lived Imperial incarceration. Chir'daki was involved in the attempt to kill Emelie Shadowstar, who Vittore inadvertently saved; Vittore is one of the few people who have escaped from Chir'daki's attempts to kill them and, having had the kill order rescinded, deeply regrets no longer having an excuse to kill him.

Emelie Shadowstar was targeted by Chir'daki at the request of Sarlacc, because her illegal activities risked drawing undue attention to Silenus Corp, and by extension to Sarlacc, one of it's customers. Shadowstar escaped from his first attempt to kill her with the help of Vittore Montegue and, after liquidating her involvement with Silenus Corp, the contract was withdrawn and a no-kill issue was ordered, making Emelie "the one that got away", to some extent.

Ambassador Wrath is the leader of the Ouishii kajidic, and is a businessman who, on occasion, finds it necessary to eliminate the opposition (or a troublesome business associate) in a literal sense. For some time, Chir'daki has been his preferred contractor for such things, and with Wrath's recent expansion into the Greater Javin, Chir'daki has recently accepted an invitation to be a permanent part Wrath's entourage, as an opportunity to get close to Emelie Shadowstar and Vittore Montegue, to antagonise them until such a time as he is permitted to kill them.
