| Dralin Hakh'khar started from humble beginnings and worked his way up to where he is today. While always ready to defend either his friends or his causes, Dralin knows that everything has a price, and that some prices must be paid for the greater good. | | '''Dralin Fortea''' is a well-traveled member of the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]], and currently belongs to [[Clan]] [[Plagueis]]. The [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscanti]] man holds the view that a stronger, unified Brotherhood is essential for the survival of the [[starwars:Dark Jedi|dark Jedi]], and has little patience for those who tout their own unit as being the most important. He was trained in the Force by [[Telona Murrage]], and was formerly trained as an [[starwars:assassin|assassin]] by his mother, [[Lilar Nemat-Fortea]]. Due to his time in the Brotherhood, Dralin has learned the benefit of being a leader and manipulator, preferring to empower others to perform tasks for him and only lending his strength when necessary. |

| | == Pre-Brotherhood == |
|
| |
|
| == Biography == | | === [[starwars:Uscru Entertainment District|Uscru District]] === |
| === Origins ===
| | [[File:Vos Gesal Street.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Dralin spent a great deal of time in the Uscru Entertainment District.]] |
| Dralin's parents were wealthy business owners in the burgeoning city at the foot of Mount Tantiss. Shortly before the city's destruction during the events surrounding Grand Admiral Thrawn's plot to destroy the Republic, Dralin's parents moved off-planet, not wanting to be present during all the commotion while Dralin's mother was pregnant. Soon after New Nystao was established by the displaced Noghri as the new capital of Wayland, Dralin's parents moved back in time for Dralin to be born there.
| |
|
| |
|
| Growing up, Dralin often mingled with the Noghri, and soon grew more fond of the compact Noghri than his fellow Humans. He grew to accept Noghri culture, along with their ideas in honor, friendship, and family. Dralin would often spend his entire day with the Noghri children, also taking time out to speak with the Dynasts of the Noghri clans.
| | Dralin was born to the upper-class couple Kaiman Fortea, a corrupt defense attorney, and Lilar Nemat-Fortea, a bored socialite heiress. While growing up, Dralin was left to his own devices due to his parents' chronic absenteeism, and he passed his time outside of his native [[starwars:Sah'c District|Sah'c District]] by roving the [[starwars:Coruscant Underworld|undercity]] of Coruscant, most of which was spent in the lower levels of the Uscru Entertainment District. At first, Dralin appeared to be just another street urchin pickpocket, running with the homeless children that plague the district. Before long, however, he was discovered by a mysterious local bounty hunter, Harika Krecca, who employed him as a lookout and sidekick, training him in the ways of stealth and thievery. |
|
| |
|
| === Teenage Life ===
| | Into his early teens, Dralin kept up his routine of sneaking out of his home district and leading a double-life in the undercity. His parents did not seem to care, except to occasionally dress him up and parade him around during social functions in which it would look good to have the whole family together. Dralin's continued tutelage under Krecca taught him much of the important matters he would have picked up in school, but he was also being groomed as an assassin, with lessons in stealth and weaponry. His first kill came about during a mission with Krecca, in which he killed a man who successfully blindsided both Krecca and himself. Up to that point, Krecca's identity, including species and gender, were a mystery to all, as Krecca never removed the customized armor that encased them, but the man who rushed Krecca and then fell to Dralin's knife had knocked Krecca's helmet off. To Dralin's surprise, Harika Krecca was none of than his mother Lilar, who had spent over a decade carrying on a secret life as a bounty hunter under the guise of living a hollow socialite's existence. |
| The Dynast of the Hakh'khar Clan always held a soft spot for the strange Human among his kind. Dralin often held his own in philosophical debates with the Dynast, and viewed him as a grandfatherly figure. As a special treat, the Hakh'khar Dynast let Dralin sit in at the Grand Dukha, the meeting between the Clan Dynasts and their parties, when he was 16. It was here that Dralin's latent Force capabilities would manifest.
| |
|
| |
|
| While Clan Hakh'khar was well-established in New Nystao, Clan Baikh'vair had misgivings about occupying the planet used by Thrawn as a base. Just before the meeting, Dralin felt something strange ab out the Baikh'vair Dynast, almost a feeling of imminent threat. He told the Hakh'khar Dynast about his feelings on the matter, and the Dynast listened, knowing that Dralin wouldn't impinge on the Baikh'vair Dynast's honor without reason. When the Dynasts all sat down to begin the discussions at hand, the Baikh'vair Dynast lunged across the table at the Hakh'khar Dynast. Had the Hakh'khar elder not been forewarned, the younger Baikh'vair Dynast could have easily dispatched him using the element of surprise.
| | === Assassin === |
| | [[File:Harika Krecca.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Dralin's mother led a double life, under the alter ego Harika Krecca.]] |
|
| |
|
| For his warning and for the honor he displayed in his loyal actions, Dralin was named an honorary member of Clan Hakh'khar. For the other Noghri, the word of the Dynast and Dralin were enough; for the Human population who witnessed the occurrence and heard of Dralin's involvement, suspicion began to seep in. Soon, the community was divided on whether or not Dralin had set up the Baikh'vair Dynast, or if it was all a ruse to begin with. The Humans began making Dralin's life difficult, starting out with only little things. Sometimes he was given the cold shoulder, other times refused service at a Human-owned establishment. Soon, the taunting and heckling began. It was only a matter of time before things started getting violent, and Dralin could scarcely walk down the street without getting stones thrown at him along with the jeers.
| | Dralin enjoyed working with his mother in what they had jokingly come to call "the family business". The realization that at least one of his parents had been close to him and mentored him brightened what had been a dismal family life. His new-found openness with Lilar gave new meaning to the work they did, and he came to enjoy his nascent assassin career even more. The duo had both captured criminals and assassinated officials, happily working on both sides of the fence. They gained a reputation for efficiency and a ruthless "first come, first served" policy on jobs, in addition to being a bit of a novelty in the criminal world: Harika Krecca and the Boy Assassin. |
|
| |
|
| The Hakh'khar Dynast, however, had held his suspicions about Dralin's insight close, and believed the young man to be Force-sensitive. After speaking to his contact in Clan Tarentum, in the Yridia System, the Dynast arranged for Dralin to be sent off, to both learn how to control his budding powers, as well as escape the cruel treatment of his peers.
| | Their main hangout was the Outlander Club; the enormous club attracted all kinds of beings from both the undercity and the nearby [[starwars:Senate District|Senate District]], which gave them excellent exposure to the elements of society most interested in hiring them. Dralin also made an unlikely friend in the older information broker, [[Diclonius]], which would serve him well later in life. Over time, however, Dralin began demonstrating strange, spontaneous abilities and performing accidental feats that could only be described as unlikely, such as catching a thrown knife or accidentally jumping three meters into the air when he only meant to hop. Through her contacts in the Brotherhood, for whom she had previously done some contract work, Lilar knew that her son was like them, and that the best thing to do would be to send him to them, rather than risk being found by the resurgent Jedi under Luke Skywalker and facing their judgement. As soon as they could arrange, Dralin was shipped to the [[Shadow Academy]], from which he was assigned to Clan Tarentum. |

| === Arrival at Sword's Sheath === | | == Tarentum == |
| [[image:Dralin Warbanner.jpg|thumb|right|150 px|Dralin's first warbanner]]
| |
| Dralin was sent to the Sword's Sheath, House Gladius' home in the Itaana Belt. He learned much there, and enjoyed the freedom he had to learn about the Force and exercise both his body and his will. Soon, he attracted the attention of at-the-time-Quaestor [[Kromtal Stormfyld]]. Master Stormfyld taught him the value of initiative, answering questions his apprentice had. Soon, Dralin's Envoy, [[Telona Murrage]], commandeered him and took him, along with fellow Journeyman Bieten Macht Elols, in what was supposed to be a routine flight. After crash-landing on the surface of [[Koros]], Dralin and Elols followed Telona into the [[Cestus Complex]], surviving the nightmare scenario until help arrived.
| |
|
| |
|
| Soon after, Master Stormfyld passed Dralin's apprenticeship on to Telona, who had the time to devote to his training. It was then that Dralin was made the Archivist of Battle Team Praxeum, only to gain the position of Commander shortly thereafter.

| === Telona's Apprentice === | | === Appearance === |
| [[image:Reaching.jpg|thumb|left|Dralin is adept at the physical aspect of the Force.]]
| | Dralin has pale skin, dark red hair, and cybernetic eyes with green light accents. While he stands less than two meters tall, his proud force of personality makes him seem larger and more intimidating than he is. While he is a young man in his fighting prime, Dralin prefers to wear tailored suits when not on a mission, which he uses to project a greater sense of control and understated style to others. While on a combat mission, he prefers light plate armor and a cape. He will remove the cape when he is not directing others and needs to become involved in the fighting himself. |
| Dralin's apprenticeship to Telona Murrage would prove to be both the most difficult thing he would encounter so far, as well as the most rewarding. Telona by no means went easy on Dralin, who would have to prove himself at every turn. Under Telona, he learned the art of [[Close Quarters Battle]] with it's myriad ways of killing someone with a small blade, the true value of independent thought, and the proper use of his physical Force powers. One thing that would plague him, however, was his inability to control his Force senses. While Dralin grew to have reasonable ability in being able to affect the world around him with the Force, whenever he tried to actively sense his surroundings he would draw blanks. His Force senses would be out of reach when he tried for them, and other times they would flood his senses with unasked for information, especially in his sleep.

|
| |
|
| In addition to the normal capabilities Force users learn, Dralin has begun delving into the Tarentum art of [[necromancy]]. Currently, Dralin has reached the second level attainments of the Minor Tier.

Dralin Fortea is a well-traveled member of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, and currently belongs to Clan Plagueis. The Coruscanti man holds the view that a stronger, unified Brotherhood is essential for the survival of the dark Jedi, and has little patience for those who tout their own unit as being the most important. He was trained in the Force by Telona Murrage, and was formerly trained as an assassin by his mother, Lilar Nemat-Fortea. Due to his time in the Brotherhood, Dralin has learned the benefit of being a leader and manipulator, preferring to empower others to perform tasks for him and only lending his strength when necessary.
Pre-Brotherhood
Dralin spent a great deal of time in the Uscru Entertainment District.
Dralin was born to the upper-class couple Kaiman Fortea, a corrupt defense attorney, and Lilar Nemat-Fortea, a bored socialite heiress. While growing up, Dralin was left to his own devices due to his parents' chronic absenteeism, and he passed his time outside of his native Sah'c District by roving the undercity of Coruscant, most of which was spent in the lower levels of the Uscru Entertainment District. At first, Dralin appeared to be just another street urchin pickpocket, running with the homeless children that plague the district.

To Dralin's surprise, Harika Krecca was none of than his mother Lilar, who had spent over a decade carrying on a secret life as a bounty hunter under the guise of living a hollow socialite's existence.
Assassin
Dralin's mother led a double life, under the alter ego Harika Krecca.

The realization that at least one of his parents had been close to him and mentored him brightened what had been a dismal family life.

Dralin Fortea, Scion of Telona Murrage
Appearance
Dralin has pale skin, dark red hair, and cybernetic eyes with green light accents.

Combat
The Force
Dralin sees the Force as a tool, not as some mystic entity or divine will. He believes that it is similar to the ancients figuring out how to harness electricity; the power was always there, and it does the bidding of those who learn how to direct it. Dralin's Force-training has grown to either reinforce his natural talents or make up for a lack. For example, where he used to use old-fashioned techniques for information-gathering purposes, he has now replaced that skill set entirely with Force abilities.
Some Force powers are more commonly used by him than others. Dralin specializes in illusions, telepathy, and sensing others through the Force, with a particular aptitude for tracking others. Additionally, he has taken a stronger interest in battle meditation since taking up command of military units, and his barriers tend to be more encompassing than others' if he concentrates solely on that. Like most dark Jedi, he can bolster himself with the Dark Side of the Force, which he has typified into a cold fury. His ability to cloak himself in the Force and his telekinetic prowess, both of which he used often as an active assassin, have fallen by the wayside. He is capable of these feats still, but Dralin's focus has shifted to other tasks.
Skills
