Application
Name: Kast Vaiv'era
Age: 47
Gender: Male
Species: Bothan
Appearance: Kast stands at 6’4”, making him one of the taller Bothans you would see. In fact, one might describe him as a walking giant, and it’s no surprise some would liken him to a Wookie. However, this semblance extends to the height; Kast is a lanky fellow with little in the way of muscle mass. His face is what one might expect of a Bothan, with a substantial muzzle and long hair. Kast’s hair is brown, and his skin is the color of dirt.
He prefers to wear rather simple clothing, while off-duty, with a white shirt, black trousers, and slip-on shoes. Kast isn’t one to particularly indulge, though he does have a Durasteel watch for...some reason. The same reason one might have a watch that can survive several hundred meters underwater. For reasons.
Homeworld: Bespin
Force Sensitive: Minor. Kast won’t be setting any records, but he’s lucky enough that you could be suspicious.
Occupation: New Republic Crewman (Bombardier and Technician)
Rank: Lieutenant Junior Grade (Below Flight Lieutenant)
Affiliation: New Republic
Background: Born in Bespin, Kast was what you could describe as a social outcast. Even at this late period, Bespin was a place for gas miners and Ugnaughts; it was no place for a kid nor for a young Bothan. He would grow-up enjoying the heck out electronics, scavenged items, etc, and while the Ugnaughts disliked him for “Screwing with their controlled chaos” it indeed did work. He would, eventually, get to eighteen and join the New Republic Navy.
Initially an Ensign on a Corona-class frigate, as a Damage Control Officer, Kast would find this to be not his liking. He was bored immensely with the job, as it was “Brief moments of terror followed by intense boredom” and that he only did things when other things, such as shields and armor, went incredibly wrong. As such, he read-up on most things he could, such as tactics, bombing, electronics, etc, keeping his mind quite active. Kast would, later, request a transfer to a K-Wing Bomber Group, citing the fact that he could actually work on components, make them better and the like, and read. Instead of “Brief moments of terror followed by intense boredom” it would be “Brief moments of terror followed by intense frustration at that one wire”. His transfer would be approved, though after going through training as a Bombardier, he would be transferred to an Expeditionary Unit.
