Character History
Early life
Carissus Ardross-Bathina was born in 12 ABY to a commanding officer of a Nova-class battle cruiser Kyle Ardross and his wife Artora Bathina a minor political figure. They lived outside of the city, his father preferring some peace away from serving on a vessel with nearly two thousand crew members.
Growing up Carissus' father was his idol, Kyle taught the basics of Hapan martial arts to his son. Although showed talent in school and was sharper than the average student all Carissus ever wanted to do was enroll into the Hapan Royal Navy and emulate his dad.
When he was thirteen news came that thousands of servicemen including his father had perished at the Battle of Fondor, this hardened the boy and only encouraged him more to follow in his fathers footsteps.
When Carissus turned fifteen he had shown astonishing advancement for a boy of that age and was accepted (with the help of a lot of money) into a college where he continued to study the martial arts, history and pilotng where he was shown to have some talent and quick reflexes.
Service in the Navy
When Carissus finished college he joined the Navy and was assigned to a Nova-class battle cruiser commanded by an old friend of his fathers Aren Rourke. Rourke helped and mentored Carissus in the following months where there were encounters with lone squads of Coralskippers and the odd group of pirates.
It was in one of these battles where the frigate took some damage and shrapnel was sprayed out, it killed several of the crew including a Miy'til fighter pilot. A piece of the debris hit Carissus in the left side of his left knee and tore all the way up the thigh. It damaged the cartilage in his knee and he still has a slight limp, though does not hinder his running.
Carissus filled the vacant Miy'til pilot seat and impressed earning merit and recognition and being promoted to a squad leader. He thrived on the risk and tension and with the end of the war came an end to that he quickly became bored and left the Navy, although only serving for less than a year and achieving a lot he realized there was more to life than just the Fleet, so he left.
Travels 31 ABY - 34ABY
With no real goal he traveled from planet to planet seeing the destruction the Yuu'zhan Vong had brought upon them and how they were starting to rebuild. Some things never change though and there were still the small gangs and syndicates trying to make money. It is through them that Carissus started earning credits in underground fights where he was usually the most skilled hand to hand combatant thanks to his martial arts training back on Hapes.
In late 33 ABY in the Undercity of Coruscant he was asked to throw a fight which he naturally refused and won. Afterwards he was ushered outside by five thugs he knew where it was heading, he quickly snapped the closest ones neck and swept the legs out from under another then but was stopped short when there was a searing pain where he'd been struck by some kind of pipe in the right kidney. He was set upon by the three others, filled with anger he somehow threw one aside before being knocked out.
Carissus woke up groggy a few hours later in some room chained upright against a wall with a hooded man named Shirek Orker the leader of the gang in front of him. Telling him he should've done what he asked he introduced his chief enforcer Mokus Zarik who tortures people for fun. It was drawn out and lasted for hours with various incisions being cut deep into Carissus' stomach placed precisely to inflict pain but not kill too quickly he phased in and out but Zarik patiently waited for him to come round so he wouldn't miss anything.
