Character Background

Rafe, aka Tryste, led a blessed and decadent childhood. The only child of a reknowned Diva of stage and screen, his paternal parentage was the stuff of tabloids. This did not concern him as he was pampered and spoiled in luxurious accomodations until the sudden and suspicious death of his mother left him reeling, and on the streets. He survived those streets through a mix of cunning, quick feet, and questionable ethics. To young Rafe, a sailor is a sailor. Whether the hulls were made for water or vacuum, the crews want the same things. And those things make them easy game for a street savvy kid with an eye for the finer things.

His chance came soon enough. Rafe, under the stage name "Tryste" put together a lounge room act with jokes, anecdotes, some adequate crooning and a little dance number or two. With the help of some ladies in revealing attire he became a hit. Right up until one of his ladies got caught up with a corrupt offical and some scandalous activities. Tryste went to the papers when every other resource failed to help his lady friend. The headlines blazed with all of the things that sell papers. Out of the chaos, he earned a drinking buddy from one of the very men who had been on the diplomatic detail when Mara disappeared. Idrick and Rafe discussed the case when it became apparent that this particular Army grunt wasn't denying everything. Between them, they got some unofficial pressure on the diplomats and their military counterparts to produce the girl. And then it all became a "hoax" at best. At worst, Rafe was accused of everything from extortion to libel and slander. Finally a contact with some of the local ruffians showed up to advise young Trystienne that he might be better off on about any planet other than this one.

Rather than accept his unofficial banishment, Mr. Trystienne went underground and contacted an appropriate "Alphabet Agency" to volunteer as a foil against his new political enemy. After initial training, he set up his own network of eyes and ears to help collect information on his quarry. The work of this cell earned Rafe a promotion to field agent where he could continue to work against political and philosophical enemies of his new "Tribe" the Agency.

Continuing as a Field agent, Rafe uncovered corruption and chicanery at the highest echelons of his government, perhaps even within his intelligence Agency itself. In typical manner, rather than deny his information, the guilty individuals counter-attacked. A well presented case kept him from facing criminal charges, they even kept his benefits. Nothing could salvage his career though. The true surprise came, when he was whimsically Knighted for his service despite any lingering rumors or accusations.

Life as a wandering dilletante was everything Sir Trystienne would have hoped. Fine dining, good company, the occasional need to talk his way out of a situation, and just a touch of self-defensive training provided by security experts. The highlight was reconnecting with his old "Showgirl" Mara, now a star herself. Along with professional growth had come mutual understanding and respect. Perhaps she was the final step in his path of carousing and self-indulgence?

Nobility has it's perks. Despite hedonistic over-indulgence, Sir Trystienne hired good personal trainers to keep him in shape. They barely managed to ward off the effects of his fondness for wine, food, late nights, and rampant debauchery. The only mar on an idyliic four years were the dolts that tried to get him to join some secret cabal with negarious goals. Having been on the sharp end of that stick himself, Rage refused. Now he's glad the security detail taught him about those guns.

The next few years brought aches to his joints. He could still dance, but gymnastics seemed ill-advised. Despite his best intentions, "Sir" Trystiene became involved in politics. Another retired celebrity with opposing views immediately started a media campagin against him. As long as it doesn't affect the flow of wine, entertainment and coin, Rafe is unlikely to be fazed. The battle of words did however sharpen his wit and ability to sway public opinion. Or perhaps that was helped my the lavish parties he hosted.

Connections

Army Corporal Idrick Reinner. Part of a detail that accidentally saw their superior officers engaged in a cover-up along with planetary officials over the mistreatment of a local Showgirl. Reinner might have been corncob-rough with few refined character traits, but loyalty and fairplay were part of those traits. He helped Tryste get his entertainment industry assistant released instead of finding her conveniently dead.

A party, some charities, a lovely redhead on one arm and a blonde on the other. Rafe remembered the occasion but only one harried scientist stood out. He had a funny enough name, Nezzara. It seemed only decent to help the fellow relax. Some wine, dice, a pair of auburn haired sisters, whisper a word here. Make a suggestion there. Voila. A much more relaxed and entertained scientist who will find his research fully endowed when he awakes in the morning.

Character Notes

Ally=Romantic interest the celebrity Mara, childhood friend, ex-showgirl and part of his act during his own entertainment career.

2 contacts in Intelligence network.

Enemy=head of a secret cabal of criminals, or dissidents, or rebels, or maybe smugglers? They were boring and Rafe didn't really pay attention to their proposal.

Looking good so far...
This line " Entry Entertainer Intell 5+" You get all the skills listed at 0 (even if you already have it)... THEN you select one by rolling ( you got a 3 for Carouse)... that one gets bumped. It should read Carouse 2 (you already had it as part of your EDU line) and is correct.

The correction is "Art 0" (not 1).

[ogamodyna]

A'ight. Got the Art-0 fixed. Now, do we need approval for connections? Three of us had an incident with corrupt officials. Anael seems amenable to connect there.

No approval needed from me. If I see something that needs me to step in, I'll do that at the Checkpoint step.

This was a good question so I'm going to CC to the main OOC thread for everyone to see it.

[savoylen]

Did you finish this cycle? I dont' see the line for the age increment and so on.
Let me know if you need help.

I did not realize the age increment was necessary. It seemed like mustering out would be enough for a checkpoint. No wonder I've been watching everyone else update and wondering why my thread was stagnant.
