Bio

Born on board the Hedon, a large pleasure vessel operated by her family. Her parents were gamblers themselves, and often spent any money they earned from the ship in the large casino onboard. At first she enjoyed spending time around the bar and sabbacc table, but as Temia got older the severity of their financial situation became apparent to her. The people who she spoke to from a very young age gave her an education in liquor, games, and survival that she still uses to this day.

When Temia, or Jack as the regulars had started calling her, was seventeen a meeting was held by all the senior members of the Jacaranda family. Her grandparents were getting older and they needed someone to step up and take over complete operations for the Hedon. Grevor, Jack's father, felt he should be the one in charge as the eldest child. His family disagreed. Grevor had millions of credits in outstanding debt already and that was with some measure of throttling from his father. Grevor's wife, Tilda, did nothing at all to stop him from gambling and boozing, in fact she indulged his vices.

After the meeting Grevor got exceptionally drunk, grabbed his wife and - based on on lookers accounts - dragged her to one of his personal transports and took off. Jack woke the next morning to an empty apartment and a knock at the door. Her uncle, Theo, was there. He told her that Grevor and Tilda had left and they hadn't been able to raise them on comms. Jack stayed in the apartment and waited, days turned to weeks that turned to a year. She wasn't privy to what had been said in the meeting, only that her father had not been given control of the Hedon.

Eighteen now, Jack decided it was time to stop waiting and move on. Before she could her uncle asked her for one more favor. Jack had been working in the casino and as a bartender to make some credits, she had even managed to pay off some of her parents debts and buy back at least one of their ships they had used as collateral on a bet. The vessel, she renamed the Reborn Grace, was a small ship and had room for cargo yet only needed one person to pilot it.

Jack spent time in spaceports and other planets she had only heard of. Being on planet seemed wrong somehow to the girl that had grown up on a large cruise liner in space. The vibration below her feet wasn't there any more and gravity felt too strong against her back. She never stayed in any one place too long and found that the only job she did well was assisting others in spending money and engaging vices. She hated how many faces she saw hoping they would be her mother and father, but were only other gamblers from other worlds.

Theo called her one day on board the Reborn Grace, he needed her for a large booking they had in the outer rim. She returned to find out the booking was an officers ball for members of something called the Vast Empire. Jack spoke to several of the members that night, serving drinks and directing them to gaming tables. The thought of joining a military seemed like the worst idea she could ever have yet somehow she found herself considering it for the first time. It was a way to escape the life her parents had abandoned her in. So at the age of twenty one, Jack left the Hedon and went in search of a planet called Tadath.

Personality

Jack is not someone to be messed with. She comes off as a pleasant young lady but if she needs to defend herself she can. She doesn't trust men, her father's drunken behavior would have been enough for her but the number of men that attempted to get into her pants at bars and casinos cemented that unease. Jack can take orders but will have an opinion and stand up for that opinion up until the last moment. Jack is good with people, but not as good with repairing things when they break, she would rather just purchase something new than attempt to fix it herself.
