Physical Description:
Kel has a well built, strong body due to years of bounty hunting and being an Imperial commander. He has a red colored goatee, giving more fill to his slightly angular face.

Professional History:
Kel became a bounty hunter around the age of 20, opting for a life style of glamour and danger instead of one of steady incomes behind a desk, like his parents wanted originally for him. He left the Corellian star system early in his bounty hunting career, opting to take the lucrative offers from the Empire for Rebellion operatives and officers. Through his work in his first few years, he learned the art of information gathering through any means necessary, but managed to become extremely proficient in computer slicing and interrogation as a means of getting information that would lead to the capture of his prey.

The Empire caught wind of his talents, usually through how much they paid him, and asked for Kel to join them on a temporary basis. They had been having problems with Rebel insurgents coming from the Outer Rim, and asked him to command a relatively small ship, the Righteous, and stop the incursions however he deemed necessary. Being that the ship was only an escort cruiser, Kel felt that he had a lot to do, with little to work with. However, he tried to fill the role as best as he could.

After a few months, the amount of Rebel ships leaving the outer rim and striking outposts in the Empire dropped dramatically, and the Empire released Kel from their service, allowing him to retain the Lieutenant Commander ranking that they had given him. However, Kel decided to return to service as a bounty hunter, which led him to the outer rim, hunting out bounties for anyone willing to buy his services, except for the Rebellion or New Republic.

Background:
Kel was born on Corellia to two parents who owned their own business. They were both lawyers, so the family was fairly well off overall. The household was not overly strict, but Kel knew the differences between right and wrong. When he was 4 years old his younger sister, Jordan, was born. Having been the only child up until that point, he didn't know at first how to cope, and started getting into various trouble around the house. After some discipline, however, Kel was brought back into line.

The two of them grew up together, learning to appreciate and understand the other in ways only close brothers and sisters could. Kel's parents tried to get him to follow in their footsteps and become a lawyer, but Kel opted otherwise. He did not want to be tied to just one place, and wanted to travel planet to planet, seeing as much as he possibly could. His parents did not overly approve, however. Kel decided to leave anyway, keeping in contact with his sister as he became a bounty hunter.

He grew up quickly in the life he chose, through need and through experiences. At age 22 he was given command of an escort cruiser, one which he used effectively to stop rebel incursions against Imperial outposts. Before he turned 23, he resumed bounty hunting in the outer rim, establishing a presence on several worlds.

He learned of the defeat of the Empire at Endor, and figured that the New Republic would have various factions nipping at its heals as it tried to establish galactic dominance in the areas the Empire once held. Wedge opted to stay in the outer rim, and had learned that his sister was somewhere in the outer rim as well, having fled Corellia when various uprisings began after the Emperor's death. Since that time, he has established a permanent residence on Chimaeria, using it as a home base with which he could search for bounties, and keep interested in the things around him, including what little personal life he could afford himself.

Personality:
Generally open towards people, and usually commands a presence and respect while he's in a room, due to his height. He uses his personality to gain information on what he wants, and can generally talk his way out of a situation. Remains professional most of the time.

Form of Dress:
Loose fitting brown pants, and a functional blue shirt. Keeps a blaster in a leg holster at all times, and a backup blaster hidden in one of his pants pockets. Other pockets in his pants usually have scanners, ID cards, and credit chips.

Superhuman Powers and Abilities
Has a keen ability to read peoples' body language in a fight, usually knowing when they're going to shoot a blaster or swing a fist (non-Force ability).

Abilities and Skills:
Extremely well versed in hand to hand combat, and an expert marksman with a blaster and a blast rifle. Superb speeder pilot, and good computer slicer.

Surprisingly, Kel is interested in various forms of physical exercise, including repulsor-biking and hiking in natural areas of planets.

Knows a few other languages other than standard, but not an overt amount.
