Paix Niaq (character)

"Kark that, Sithspawn!"

Paix Niaq is a Human bounty hunter currently working for the Black Sun.

Biography
Exact background of this Black Sun Operative is unknown. Records start with Niaq being freed from slavery when Feeorin pirate Nym raided the freighter Niaq was transported in. After working for Nym several years he decided to sign up with the Black Sun for more profitable contracts. Offically an escort pilot for Xizor Transports' branch office in Khoonda on Dantooine, Paix became one of the Black Sun's henchmen. He sometimes teams up with Caze Skawyx, though Niaq doesn't seem to be happy about Skawyx' binds to the Rebellion.

Paix Niaq is an ace pilot which is rather helpful to keep up his cover working for Xizor Transports.

Personality
Niaq despises honor and fairness and sentient beings believing or relying on it. His motivation is money. In a fight he looks for a good chance to strike from behind. Also he hates the leftover wielders of the Force and hopes for the Empire to clean the galaxy from the Jedi insurgents. This combination makes him an ethically unchallenged assassin for most available contracts.

Niaq's liverish behaviour towards sentient beings of all species seems to be a side effect of his profession.

Equipment
Niaq utilizes cheap, low-class equipment for assassination assignments, as these equipment is harder to track then high-class spezialized unique master-pieces.

In space combat he usually relies on a Black Sun Vaksai Star Fighter. This vessel is powerful armed and fast. If none available, he uses an Ixiyen class fighter.

Behind the scenes
Paix Niaq's appearence and personality are derivated from Jariah Syn, protagonist of the ongoing Star Wars Legacy comic series. Details of the background have been changed to reflect the other time-line Paix is living in and to give this character a more "unique" touch.
