"You little sneak!"

―Tasha'Vel Versea

Bentre is an Obelisk warrior, in Naga Sadow. He prefers to keep his opponents at a distance, as he seems to do with many of his allies. It's not that he thinks that he is better than everybody else. Rather Bentre just honestly believes that most people have a lot of ground to make up to compete with him. The Corellian possesses an odd single-mindedness when engaged in a task, and would sooner push you out of the way than try to explain what you are doing wrong. Despite this though, some people manage to earn his respect. These are the sorts he actually wears proper robes for, calls "sir", risks his life, and things of that effect.

History

Early Life

Bentre grew up on Corellia, raised by his loving mother and father. Still, the boy gave his parents no end of grief. There were few evenings that he did not come home with a black eye, a bloodied lip, blood on his shirt, or being hauled home by law enforcement. Stahoes was far from a common thug, though. He actually tried to make something of himself as he went through his school years.

Coronet City, Corellia planet

As he progressed in his education, he increasingly found himself thoroughly bored. When he wasn't getting into scraps, he was playfully trying to penetrate the network security of a local sector; just to see if he could. Over time, he developed what would be described by his educators as "an unhealthy obsession" with computer systems and manipulating them. One guidance counselor wrote of Bentre that he displayed "a cold disregard for his peers, which borders on anti-social, and may indicate some problems at home".

Not that his parents did anything but try to give their son the best home life they could. His father was a low-level banker who worked hard to be sure his family want for nothing. His mother was a homemaker, previously a network architect, who gave up her passion to raise a family. This did not stop Bentre from breaking his parent’s hearts at the age of 15. Using the terminal in his father's study, he sliced into his father's financial account and withdrew everything. Using the credits he wired to an off-planet account, he secured a ride off his homeworld. Finally, in an uncharacteristic act of concern, he scribbled a note to his mother he was going to have to disappear for a while.

His Tenure on Nar Shadda

Bentre traveled from system to system for a few months, living comfortably on the credits he had stolen from his parents. Too soon, his ease with spending credits attracted some of the wrong kind of attention. He found himself coping with hangers-on and busybodies determined to get a little taste of his wealth. To his relief, a Duros named Garan befriended him, watching his back and keeping the seedier elements away with a quiet menace.

The Human gave little thought to the ease with which his new companion was able to wave aside such nuisances. This proved to be his downfall, however. Bentre did not realize that it was the ruthlessness of his newfound bodyguard that drove away the others. Neither did he realize that the Duros did not have his best interests at heart.

The Corellian was the target of a two man con. While Garan kept Bentre busy and feeling safe from the less pleasant elements of Nar Shadda, his partner, a man by the name of Jallo Makk had been slowly working on slicing into Bentre’s accounts aided by information that Garan provided him. Once Jallo had finished funneling the money from the account, Jallo went out for drinks using his new wealth. This caused Garan to become angry, resulting in angry words, a drawn weapon, and a dead bystander. Having already used the boy, the pair conspired to frame Bentre, calling into the local law enforcement, filing reports, and bribing several officials. Betrayed by the one person he felt he might trust on the Smuggler’s Moon, Bentre found himself destitute, with several warrants out for his arrest on the suspicions of robbery and murder.

As Stahoes was on the run from the corrupt law enforcement he met La'venna and her little band of scoundrels. The gang was quick to permit him into their ranks and treated him as though he were family. The human was dubious at first, but La'venna proved her sincerity when she saved his life during a heated conflict in the streets. This too proved short-lived as thirteen months later, Garan and a small band of mercenaries managed to hunt down the Corellian. The Duros told him it had been the work of the Twi'lek and her rogues that had brought him to their attention again. Garan smiled, giving a mock apology, claiming he always hated when "contracts end like this." As Garan was about to pull the trigger, a fellow gang member by the name of Sian shot the Duros in the back, saving Bentre's life.

The Sullstan rogue went on to explain that he had been trailing the human for the last few hours at La'venna. Unfortunately, though, Garan's words had planted a seed of doubt in Bentre's mind. When he returned to their hideout, he promptly pulled a blaster, shooting the Twi'lek woman in the stomach, and fleeing angrily in the wake of the resulting confusion. Once again, he found himself on the run, with fewer and fewer options available. It was during the aftermath of these events that Marcus Kiriyu found the Corellian on Nar Shadda, and helped him escape the planet for good.

Service in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood

Once the Corellian found himself at Shadow Academy, he hit the ground running, throwing himself into studies of history, practicing with the training lightsaber he was granted, and further sharpening the skills he had already picked up as he served as a member of the Jade Kodashi on Nar Shadda. He tried desperately to forget his former life, but he still experienced nightmares about the things he experienced there.

His eagerness did not go unseen, soon after he left the Shadow Academy and joined the Clan Naga Sadow, he was paired up with Daedric Turelles. The tenacious attitude of the student was well met by his new Master's own inclination to seek knowledge and to self-improve. The Dark Jedi Knight tried to press his apprentice to excel, and was pleasantly surprised to see Stahoes step up to his challenges. Like a man possessed, Bentre continued to process information at a surprising rate. Though his Master never seemed to realize it, the drive to better himself was borne of a fear of betrayal. Bentre wanted to be sure that when he got attacked again he would be able to drive off his rivals. He continued to make a name for himself, eventually joining Sapphire Squadron. Over time, he finally dared to hope he could finally find the sense of family he had lost on Nar Shadda.

His first truly notable conflict as a member of Sapphire Squadron was the attack on the pirate moon of Atlas. Dropping in with the rest of his Battleteam, Bentre served with distinction, helping to clear and secure the hanger area. He kept himself busy clearing out soldiers with his blaster, before moving forward with Daedric, Macron and Shi Long and cutting a swathe through the battlefield. The armored forces of Scholae Palatinae followed up behind the four, ensuring victory for the joint operation by the clans.

Personal Data

Physical Description

Bentre is a slightly taller-than-average human. His dark hair typically covers part of his face, obscuring his left eye and the scars around it. Scars also line below his right eye, one of two souvenir of an encounter with the Rollmaster of Naga Sadow, Anima. The other is the Tukatan eye that replaced his ruined left eyeball. It is not always so obvious, as Bentre has learned to alter his appearance to hide it when he deems necessary with a Force illusion. He also bears some scarring around his right wrist from an encounter with another apprentice in the Central Library of the Shadow Academy. His clothing of choice is a white undershirt below a jacket of bantha hide, and simple pants. His skin is of a dark olive tone, and he typically carries himself with an air of obvious self-importance.

Trivia
