Tarn Nolazun

## Biography

### Early Life

Tarn was born on the planet of Corellia to an absent father and a death stick addict of a mother. This meant he spent the majority of his early years on the streets, where he was involved in plenty of fights, and plenty of bets. When he found himself unable to repay a debt out of his own pocket, he discovered the world of illegal bounty hunting at fifteen.

With a hold-out blaster and a hood over his head, Nolazun’s bounty hunting career began in illegality and discretion. Due to the intense poverty Tarn lived in as a youth, the couple hundred credits he got from his first couple jobs was an unbelievable windfall, and a great motivator for him to continue indulging in the profession.

By seventeen, he’d paid off his debts, bought a nice LL-30 blaster pistol, and began taking on more dangerous, and lucrative jobs. It was on one of these dangerous jobs he was grazed by a blaster bolt to the cheek, the seared lash across his cheek became a permanent reminder of what happens when you fail to protect yourself.

After that, he began wearing armor.

Nolazun eventually accrued enough credits to buy a legitimate bounty hunting license and some other accessories by nineteen, such as his combat gloves and personal shield emitter.

The legal jobs, for the most part, were far safer and relatively more lucrative than the illegal jobs he’d started out with, and with such, Nolazun got *even more credits*. With this, he bought his first ship. This vastly increased the range of jobs he got, and with that came even more windfall.

## Conflicts

### Duel with Trogumund Volcandi

In 1 BBY, after multiple rumors abound of a Jedi in the sector, Nolazun gathered his companions: a Trandoshan named Kranossk, a Sun Guard named Ka, and a Defiler who gave no name, and tirelessly tracked down the Jedi before finding him and his companions in a cantina on Elrood.

Tarn and his companions engaged the Jedi and his companions, and the resulting conflict resulted in the cantina and many of the patrons who failed to escape in time being destroyed, as well as Kranossk, and Ka, one of the Mandalorian's companions was killed, while the other two were incapacitated. Tarn suffered minor fractures, however his wrist was sliced off by a piece of beskar being telekinetically wielded by Trogumund, who was rendered immobile and barely conscious after receiving numerous blaster wounds.

After Nolazun fell unconscious due to his wounds, Trogumund was rescued by Rebel Marines, who did not attack Tarn as they thought he was a survivor of the damage that befell the cantina rather than one of the main reasons behind it.

### Duel with Erik Bavaria

After getting a cybernetic arm to replace the one he'd lost at Elrood, Tarn's next objective was hunting down the Jedi who took his arm. On a refueling stop at some Outer Rim world, Tarn was notified by his crew that a Mandalorian was hanging outside of his ship at the time. Angrily, Nolazun investigated and encountered the Mandalorian, the two exchanged insults, until the argument escalated into a brutal fight that resulted in many of Nolazun's bones being broken after the latter tried to make a hasty retreat following briefly stunning the supercommando. He was pulled back down to the surface while several dozen feet in the air by Erik's whipcords, and broke many bones.

After hearing Nolazun's scream, the bounty hunter's mercenaries flooded out of his ship, and Erik's own troops soon also flooded out, and a brutal skirmish was narrowly avoided.
