Personality:
Janos Vol`gen is a broker of the underworld. If there is a deal to be cut, ruffled egos to smooth over or a sales pitch to be made, he is interested. A slight aloof yet sharp man, who delights in setting events in motion and pulling people`s strings, often working as an intermediary or a negotiator. He prefers soft power and deal making, with precise outlines, in order to reach a mutually beneficial outcome. He rarely takes offense in what people believe or do, save for unnecessary cruelty or grand-standing, which he believes will only attract unwanted attention and chaos.
He can however be overtly critical of what, he sees as lackluster standards and tends to fiddle with something, that was not broken to begin with. As an ephemeral existence on the outskirts of power, he has however grown wary of those around him after a few violent altercations, recognizing that to some people, his knowledge and existence are becoming more and more of an unneeded risk. This has also lead him to employ, a small number of droids as his ships crew, instead of flesh and blood creatures. It has also lead him to hide his Balosar heritage, by keeping his antennae retracted as much as possible, maintaining a layer of deception over the impressions people might have of him.
Strengths:
Introspective – Janos is a thinker at heart and has a habit of self-reflection, thus making him aware of his own short-comings.
Perceptive – Over the years Janos has learned to pay attention to the little details and signs, which might give him a edge in negotiations. A slip of the tongue or an unconscious gesture, anything he might read into.
Weaknesses:
Pedantic – Obsessed with fine tuning everything from possible deals to his ships equipment, to the point of exasperating those around him.
Paranoid/Withdrawn – Many in the criminal underworld find him to be awkward company outside a purely business setting due to his cautiousness, thus causing him to alienate potential customers.Skills & Powers:
Balosar Intuition/antennae: A racial trait of the Balosar race, setting them aside from humanity despite their appearance, are the two retractable antennae on their heads. When extended Janos can detect surges in emotion and detect danger, due to the antennae`s sensitivity to sounds, down to the subsonic ranges. However keeps them hidden most of the time, to play with people`s perceptions of him.
Appearance & Gear:
Janos stand at an average height of 1,71 m with thick dark brown hair and mellow blue eyes. Of a pale complexion and average build, Janos comes across as aloof, if not unimpressive figure. He however carries himself with poise of a man, who has seen his share of altercations, violent and otherwise. He wears a gravel colored business suit, a gunmetal grey case of cigarettes peeking from his chest pocket, with a white collared shirt.
Inside his jacket, he carries an EC-17 hold-out blaster in a shoulder holster as his personal firearm of choice. Years of brokering deals and associating with criminals have taught Janos, that sometimes the solution to a disagreement comes out of the barrel of a blaster.
