Zagro Fenn

Ragnar Kul is a male member of Clan Vizsla. Orphaned by the age of twelve, he became a skilled smuggler scouring the wastelands of Raxus Prime. The young Zeltron quickly made a name for himself specializing in finding and trading contraband Sith artifacts and ancient Force-sensitive relics throughout the Mid-Rim.

While looting priceless items from the Tomb of Marka Ragnos on Korriban, the events of the Tenth Great Jedi War overtook Kul. Detained by forces loyal to the Dark Council, he was taken to Antei and interrogated. Released to the custody of the Shadow Academy, Kul quickly scoured all available texts and manuscripts his rank would allow. Rapidly rising through the ranks of the Shadow Academy, he began acquiring a personal collection of tomes and artifacts.

Missions for the Inquisitorius followed for many years, raising Ragnar's status and drawing the attention of the Shroud Syndicate - rising to the rank of Boss. Ragnar struck out on his own looking for his fortunes with Clan Vizsla.

Character History

Early Life

Ragnar Kul was born under the ominous and bleak spires of the industrial wasteland of Raxus Prime. The once booming and prosperous metropolis world was far past its prime millennia ago, and the recent resurgence of the world due to the exploits of Count Dooku and the Confederacy of Independent Systems had given way to near lawlessness under lax control by the nascent Tion Hegemony and the Imperial overlords.

Kul's solitary and neglected upbringing had a deep impact on the inquisitive and naturally outgoing Zeltron. Without an outlet for his budding social needs or companionship, he turned to reading and study of all the trash heaps of history that is Raxus Prime. He also learned to be highly manipulative and cunning as well. Publicly he acted as a caring and ponderous youth who fostered a sense of community all the while dreaming of venturing to the stars for wealth, glory, and security.

Treasure Hunter & Introduction to Smuggling

Ragnar's later adolescence and early manhood was a period of intense dedication to the craft of treasure hunting and excavation of ancient Sith and Jedi locations spread out amongst the far flung expanse of the Mid Rim. He honed his skills on fencing these goods and smuggling them undetected through Imperial checkpoints and blockades.

The first stop was on Ossus, not far from the environs of the Tion Hegemony. Ossus awarded Kul a rich hunting ground, here he spent years pursuing Jedi artifacts and learning much from the old library world. He made a small fortune on selling these trinkets as oddities to the occasional tourist and spacer that braved the Imperial control to conduct research here.

His exploits had attracted the notice of the Imperial overlords. In the aftermath of the Great Jedi Purge and the rise of the Empire, few could study the Jedi without strict scrutiny and the danger of being abducted and questioned. Hot on his heels, Imperial agents were closing in and the window of escaping an Imperial jail cell was diminishing. Kul was forced to turn over his entire fortune to bribe his persecutors and seek passage on a mining vessel in the employ of pirates to the ancient Sith colony of Malachor V.

Now in his early twenties, penniless, and with only the clothes on his back and no way of communicating with his remaining friends on Raxus Prime, Kul determined to make the best of it on the backwater of Malachor V near the Outer Rim. Far from the heart of the ancient Sith Empire, Malachor V held many secrets to discover. He plied his trade, and assisted the pirates who stalked the system waiting for any wayward traveler or Imperial survey team that was unlucky enough to trespass in this foreboding system.

Ragnar eventually made his way to Korriban. Relying on his resourcefulness, for a time he was able to evade the hostile creatures and unknown legions of Force users that had waged war on Korriban. Near the Tomb of Ajunta Pall, Ragnar sought refuge and for a time was able to hide in the ruins and subsist off of the local flora and fauna he could track and kill. Hunting by night and learning the ancient Sith culture and history by day the first few weeks on Korriban passed uneventfully. This all changed when he was captured by a strike team from the Shadow Academy who took him to their headquarters.

Trials at the Shadow Academy

Kul's arrived on Lyspair fully intent on learning all he could, dedicating himself to researching the massive assortment of scrolls and holocrons. It was with the Shadow Academy where Kul first got his name known to the greater membership of the Dark Brotherhood.

Acceptance to the Inquisitorius and advancement in the Shroud Syndicate

These missions, and many other classified projects, gained Ragnar high regard within the Inquisitorius and attained the rank of Grand Inquisitor. In order to continue his career and search for access to more information and ancient artifacts, Ragnar begrudgingly accepted an offer to join the Shroud Syndicate. He rose through the ranks rapidly and was awarded the title of Boss as he struck out on his own,

Initial Assignments Within Clan Vizsla

Ragnar has recently joined Clan Vizsla with his crew aboard the Lucky Hand, a modified YT-2000 smuggling ship. Crewed by a deadly force of HK-47 droids, Ragnar is ready to take on the most dangerous and lucrative smuggling jobs for his Mandalorian employers.
