Character Synopsis
Within the vast expanse of the galaxy, Danil Skaggs navigates the shadows with a profound sense of purpose, drawing strength from the mentorship of two influential figures who have left an indelible mark on his journey.
Gonal, a seasoned investigator, recognized Danil's potential early on and took him under his wing. Through Gonal's guidance, Danil honed his skills in deduction, surveillance, and navigating the criminal underworld. As they worked together, Danil discovered how to harness his force sensitivity to aid in his investigative endeavors. With Gonal's teachings, Danil learned to sense hidden motives, and gather crucial information.
However, it was through a chance encounter with Roughie, a blind and homeless woman, that Danil's understanding of the Force deepened further. Roughie possessed a remarkable perception and an uncanny ability to sense the Force. Intrigued by Danil's force abilities, she acted as an informant for Gonal, gradually sharing her unconventional insights into the Force. In exchange for occasional drinks, she taught Danil tricks and offered him tips on honing his abilities, expanding his understanding of the Force beyond what Gonal had imparted. Roughie's teachings focused on relying on instinct, heightening his senses, and embracing the mysterious nature of the Force.
Later, on a mission with Gonal, his existence took a harrowing turn when he was captured by droids and thrust into cryo-sleep, only to awaken 30 years later aboard a zombie-infested slave trade vessel. Desperate to survive, Danil fought for his life, but succumbed to infection. Miraculously, the ship's crew managed to cure him, though he was left maimed, missing a leg and several fingers. In an attempt to restore his mobility, they outfitted him with new appendages scavenged from B2 Battle-Droids.
Despite his disfigurement, Danil became the primary "runner" within the ship, tasked with venturing into infected areas where danger lurked at every turn. Bitten, injured, and attacked countless times, he defied the odds and managed to survive for nearly two grueling years. Eventually, he crossed paths with a group of mercenaries employed by the "Republican Sons," an organization seeking to reclaim the former glory of the republic that had since fallen into corruption. Recognizing Danil's resilience and perceptive abilities, they offered him employment, and he became a valuable asset within their ranks.
Now, Danil roams the vast reaches of the galaxy as a member of the Republican Sons, their most keen-eyed operative. His past experiences have forged him into a hardened and resourceful force-user, relying on his innate connection to the Force to aid him in his endeavors. Yet, behind his stoic facade, a sense of bleakness lingers. The haunting memories of his time aboard the slave trade vessel and the constant battles against the infected have left deep scars, both physical and emotional. However, amidst the darkness, a flicker of hope remains. Danil's resolve to unveil the truths shrouded in the galaxy's shadows fuels his unwavering dedication to his work.
