Ghent Innek

"Monster? I'm a warrior. What'd you expect? Me to sit home and plant flowers?"

- Ghent Innek.

Ghent Innek was a Human Mandalorian during the days of the Old Republic. Born on the world of Gargon, Ghent was raised in the Mandalorian ways of life. Like most of his brethren, he took part and marched against the Republic during the Mandalorian Wars.

Following the Mandalorian defeat at Malachor V, Ghent became a mercenary, wandering the galaxy and plying his trade of violence and blood. It wasn't until Mandalore the Preserver began reuniting the weakened and scattered clans that Ghent returned to the Mandalorian way of life. He was amongst the Mandalorian combatants at the Battle of Telos IV, returning to Dxun afterwards to serve Mandalore.

Early Life
"You want to talk, boy, let's talk. I've been holding a blaster ever since I was born, long before your time. My ma and pop were both warriors, so don't dare spit on their honor. But my honor? That ain't worth a lick. But I'm the one with the blaster here, so my word is law."

Training
"A lot of you won't make it through the training. I say: Good! Mand'alor has no need for an army of hut'uun. Now go!"

- Ghent's instructor, Genitvi Rush.

Personality and Traits
"What are you lookin' at?"

- Typical greeting.

Ghent was a surly and gruff individual, with a "might-makes-right" attitude. He preferred to let his weapons do the talking; as such, he was considered to be a violent individual. Somewhat of a sadist, Ghent enjoyed fighting and inflicting pain on enemies but he was not without honor: a weakened or helpless enemy was easy prey, and killing easy prey, Ghent believed, made the killer look weak. He tended to be laconic, or even downright mocking and sarcastic in conversation, which pushed others away. In truth, Ghent did value friendship and comraderie, although he rarely deigned to show it.

Ghent valued individual freedom over a group collective. This made him difficult to work alongside and any superiors thought him to be unruly and uncooperative. Oftentimes, however, he obeyed orders even if he spoke his mind - which he did often - against "stupid" orders. He respected individual accomplishments and strength, not ranks, so he tended to shirk any reverence for the chain of command.

Somewhat of an opportunist, Ghent was unscrupulous when it came to earning a living. Mercenary work suited him greatly, although he always declined - sometimes violently - jobs that targetted civilians, especially women and children. He harbored an intense grudge against the Jedi after the Mandalorian defeat at Malachor IV. He didn't understand the nature of the Force, or the Jedi teachings, and thought them to be weak because they limited themselves and their power.

During the Mandalorian Wars and the battles against the Sith Triumvirate, Ghent served as a demolitionist. As such, he had extensive knowledge on explosives. He had a habit of pyromania, which could be linked to his service in the war, which caused him to burn matches and other items for pleasure.

Ghent was known to smoke cigarras and was a heavy drinker. He also liked to gamble, but his short temper usually led to losses.

Equipment
"Shiny."

Ghent wore a customized suit of Mandalorian armor. It had the general appearance of Neo-Crusader armor, although with many modifications. Most visible was the color; Ghent's personal armor was a drab olive green with silver accents. A tan poncho was worn around the shoulders, over the armor, partially concealing a bandolier strapped across the chest.
