History: Born on Tattoine, near the city of Mos Espa, Biggs Panan led a rough life. He was born into a poor family, in which his father worked on droids, but made very little money. After he was just born, a man, enshrouded in a black cloak, walked in and requested that he see the newborn. His father, although hesitantly, allowed the mysterious man to see the child. As the man entered and first layed eyes on the child, the first thing he viewed was the child's abnormally light blue eyes; a rare type of eye color, even for a human. Reaching into his robes, the man pulled out a silver crystal and laid it into the boy's blanket, along with a note. The note had said: "When the boy is of age, send him for me..." Then, as a final gift, he took off his black cloak and layed it on the table his parents were sitting at. "There is a note in his room, inside his blanket. Take a look at it when you have time. Thank you..." And without another word, he took off...
Thirteen years later, Biggs had grown into a fine young man, having started working in his father's shop four years earlier. He had already learned how to build droids from scrap, and has helped his father build a few models to help around the shop. But his family was thrown into debt, as his father was earning lesser and lesser money each day. He was earning so little money, that his wife and son were forced to help out to earn enough to survive. Biggs' father had also owed a debt to the infamous crime lord Jabba the Hutt, and he did not have the amount he needed to pay it off. One day, after an extreme amount of repairs on several protocol droids, Biggs' father had just remembered the note that the mysterious man had left him when Biggs was very little. Asking his son to follow him, he had led him to the dining room and revealed the note to his son, saying that the very same person also gave him the crystal he wore every day, as well as the black cloak that was given to him. Now that Biggs was of age to roam Mos Espa on his own, he was excited to travel the city on his own for his first time, but he was also worried that some vagabond, or one of Jabba's men would kidnap or kill him. But Biggs was very courageous for his age. So courageous in fact, he managed to fend off a dewback from his house with nothing but a simple plasma torch, giving him the nickname of "Iron Will Panan." Throwing the black cloak
over himself, his mother had stopped him to give him a simple blaster to defend himself, but was also told not to hold it out in the open, and to only draw it as a last resort or for self defense. Giving his parents one final hug, he left for the town of Mos Espa, seeking the one who had visited him so long ago. Having reached the city, Biggs went searching around the town for the man, until, just as he had suspected, a ruffian of around 20 years of age tried to mug the boy. Kicking him in self defense, Biggs ran across the streets, avoiding the man who was already pursuing his next victim. "Over here!" Biggs heard the voice and followed it into an alley, where a man grabbed him and ducked low, as to avoid being seen by the vagabond. Letting Biggs go after the coast was clear, he had explained to the boy that he was the man he had met so long ago. He had introduced himself simply as Otoh, and he told Biggs that his family was in danger. Jabba's men would visit his home and demand the debt that the crime lord wanted, and would ultimately kill them. Biggs asked how he knew that, but Otoh claimed that there was no time to explain. Racing to his house, along with Otoh, his mind was surging with thoughts of what would happen if he was too late. Just as he reached his house, he had experienced the impossible...his family lay dead: mangled and tortured beyond recognition by Jabba's thugs, and his entire house burning to the ground. Horrified at what he saw, he immediately burst into tears. Then, feelings of rage and anger filled his mind, clouded his judgment, and made him go berserk. Otoh, realizing that he had lost his ability to calm himself, made an effort to calm the boy down, only to be pushed aside as Biggs made his way towards the group of people who killed his family. Withdrawing his blaster in anger and pointing it at the men, they simply laughed, only to be surprised that one of their allies had fallen to the ground, with a blaster hole in his head. They had only just realized it was too late... In less than a few seconds, all of them were dead, like Biggs' parents. Otoh had scooped up the boy to escape the planet before Jabba realized his men did not come back. Boarding his mother's trade ship, the Blue Kestrel, he placed the boy inside the main hold, traveled to the cockpit, and started up the ship. In less than a few seconds, the ship lifted off the ground and took off from Tattoine, immediately jumping to hyperspace a few seconds later. Otoh had set the ship on autopilot, coursed for Coruscant, as he left the pilot's seat to comfort the broken boy. Biggs had just calmed down, but was still stricken with grief at the loss of his only family. It was about two days after they left that they had finally arrived on Coruscant, where they had to hide to escape being spotted by Jabba's bounty hunters. It would take them three full years to escape his finest hunters' sights...No one knows why or how he bacame a smuggler afterwards: maybe he did it for the credits, or maybe he did it to keep his "iron will" sharp. Only he knows for sure...

RP Sample:

"Sith spit!"

Biggs screamed as his airspeeder died out on him. He was so close to his delivery point, yet the three bounty hunters were hot on his tail. He lifted the knapsack of droid parts on his back and ran as fast as he could, weaving through the civilians, trying to avoid capture. The droid parts were to be delivered to a shady droid merchant in the underground sector of Coruscant. Running as fast as he could, Biggs finally managed to lay low in an alley and avoid being spotted by the hunters. He sighs heavily as he finds the coast is clear.

"Man, those three won't give up... I'm gonna have to be quick about this if I'm to ever get something to eat," Biggs thought to himself. He hurried, as fast as he could, avoiding loosely packed spots, and hiding in places like cantinas, until he managed to get to the merchant. He looked around before entering to make sure he wasn't being watched, then without second thought he entered.

"Good! You managed to get the parts to me," the dealer said with a look of excitement on his face. He handled the parts to ensure they had retained their quality, and eyeing for damage.

"Yeah, yeah, I got what you want. Now where's my credits?" Biggs replied, with a somewhat impatient tone to his voice. "I had to avoid three bounty hunters because of what's inside that sack, you know, so I think I should get something extra."

"Oh, alright then. This is for your troubles... May it suit you to your fancy," resigned the merchant.

He then handed over 500 credits for the parts, plus an extra 250 for managing to avoid capture. Biggs took the spoils and placed them in his money pouch for later usage.

"Pleasure doing business with you," Biggs said with a smile, and at once he left the shop, his black cloak billowing outward into the lit streets of Coruscant.
