Full Name: Taro Jetter
Nickname(s): Jet Set

General Description: Standing at 5'10", with an athletic build, Taro Jetter is a skilled acrobat with a curious mind and a knack for art. He chose to be a pirate for the adventure and the thrill, but he has retained a sense of ethics, odd as they may seem. He's used piracy to get him around the galaxy and allow his head to be filled with the knowledge of the universe.
Clothing: Currently, Taro wears some light-armor pants with a striped shirt. Many times, he's been known to dress rather extravagantly and his style has been labeled "over the edge" by most.
Weapons: KYD-21 Blaster Pistol
Other Equipment: A rather mysterious book that he lets no one read, and a Red Ball Jet Organ which is stationed in his ship.
Transportation: The SS Happenstance. A modified J-type Naboo Star Skiff. The chromium plating was stripped and replaced with a flat color so as to avoid any unwanted "royal attention".
Inventory: Mystery Book
Family: Taro lost track of them a while back... maybe 2 or so years ago. They left for a distant star and didn't come back. Oh well...
History: Taro was born on a small planet with a dying sun while the last few refugees were being evacuated from the surface. He lived the majority of his life on Calipsa, but left after his family mysteriously disappeared, supposedly on a trip to a distant star when he was 16. He joined the pirate crew of the dreaded Flappy Bojangles, and has since then taken off on his own. Having taken a large interest in the arts while serving under Bojangles, he likes to play a song or two whenever the opportunity arises and chance allows. He's been known to float through the nebulae around dead and dying stars periodically, but no one's absolutely sure as to why. He's been known to experiment with spice when it's available, but it's rare that he'll ever let anyone know that he's on the stuff, and his non-addictive personality keeps him from getting stuck and losing his sanity.
RP Sample:
The yellow-orange waves passed by; arms reaching into space, licking at the darkness that lay just beyond. This star was about to go nova.. maybe in a few hundred years, maybe today, but today seemed unlikely. The dwarf in the middle of the nebula pulsated. It was a dangerous place to be, but it didn't really matter at the moment. The colors and the shapes were all too amusing.
"You just want to die. You've lived your life" Taro solemnly stated, staring into the star from the small ship. "I, on the other hand, have a long while to live." He grinned. "I hope!"
The giggledust was starting to kick-in. His body was loose.
"Turn off your mind, relax, and float down stream..."
Taro "Jet Set" Jetter glanced over at his little book and began to crack-up. He fell to the floor and held his stomach from the laughter. "This is good." He stood to his feet and walked over to his Red Ball Jet Organ. He began to play, with the caustics of the nebula-induced waves projecting onto the walls around him. It was good.
