Vernokk

Pre Sith Alchemy Life
"Slay them to the last man!"

- Vernokk during the Battle of Arnorr V

Very little is known of Vernokk's years before he was mutated by Sith alchemists, save that he was born in 50 BBY and was mortal enemies with a Trandoshan by the name of Savosk. It is also known that Vernokk served the Arnorrian military as a mercenary shortly before his capture.

A Cruel and Unnatural Experiment
"These two will make excellent additions to my latest project."

- Darth Desperos

Vernokk was captured along with his nemesis Savosk by agents of Darth Desperos in 19 BBY during the Battle of Arnorr V, and taken to the Black Citadel on Harron'ge'Gorsha. There they were both subjected to cruel works of Sith Alchemy, and mutated into massive brutal warriors, towering several feet over others of their species, and gaining pounds upon pounds of muscle. Both were nearly driven insane by the torture they suffered during the Sith Alchemy.

"You think you can turn us into freaks, and force us to serve you? Scratch gravel you slimeball"

- Vernokk to Darth Desperos

After the Alchemy Vernokk stood at a massive 7'5" and was far stronger than a Nikto would normally be. Desperos placed him and Savosk into his Sith Dreadguard by influence of the Force. But due to the incredible willpower the two savage warriors possessed due to the Alchemy, they soon overcame Desperos' hold on them and went their separate ways.

Vernokk became a smuggler, and took up the hobby of big game hunting, to satisfy his urge to kill. Vernokk quickly became a name that was feared in several systems, including Tatooine

Helping a Couple of Kids Out
"I have a proposition for you; You free that girl now, or you swallow your tongue punk!"

- Vernokk

Around 1 ABY Vernokk was hanging out a local dive/slave market on Tatooine; when a young boy entered the building, seeking to save his friend. The slave master refused the boy's offer of five hundred credits, and turned him away threatening to make him a slave. Vernokk hated the cowardly slave master, so he called the young boy over. He asked him what was wrong, and the boy explained that his friend Gaalna had been captured on Taris. The Nikto sympathized him and threatened the slave master into freeing the girl free of charge. Then he invited the two to join him as smugglers on his ship. They agreed, not wanting to return home.
