Physical Description:
Athletic, well trained. He keeps his hair very short, a left-over from military life. His face is stern, with a strong jaw, and rarely takes on any 'expression'. His eyes, dark blue, always seem to be appraising the person or situation before him.

Professional History:
Kevan Rackis entered Imperial service at 18 (Infantry), where he served. After exemplary action at the battle of Tenab he was transferred to covert operations service with the "Nightwraiths" where he spent the proceeding 15 years, at first as a team member, then leader.

As the war with the rebellion drew out the Nightwraiths were assigned to more and more questionable missions, such as civilian supply interdiction and seizure of political prisoners.

Rixx was demoted for "insubordination" after refusing to carry out orders to execute a cadre of rebel Bothan operatives thought to have transported the stolen "Death Star" plans to the rebellion, but eventually achieved the rank of Lt. Colonel

He continued to serve, but felt a degree of resentment toward the Empire from that day forward.

Official Imperial report has Lt. Col. Rackis being the officer who ordered the execution of over two-hundred rebel officers who had surrendered at the rebel base on the ice planet.

Kelvin Rixx, seemed to appear out of nowhere on the outer rim shortly after the incident on Hoth, where he quickly built a reputation on many worlds as a harsh lawgiver, dispensing strict justice, and for "always getting his man."

- Background:
Kevan Rackis grew up on the streets of Coruscant, the son of a homeless couple. His father would feed the family, who lived in a factory steam vent for warmth, by doing skut work in the lower levels of Coruscant's planetary disposal system. His parents were killed when a larger gang of homeless pillagers murdered them for their clothes. The miscreants were caught, on his advice, but eluded conviction on legal technicalities.

Shortly after his parents' deaths he enlisted in the Imperial army, seeing it as the only way to survive. He soon found his place within the Imperial ranks, and distinguished himself often. As a brush fire on a few core worlds became a full blown rebellion, Rackis was assigned to the 377th infantry battalion besh company, the infamous, but disavowed, Nightwraiths. He again distinguished himself in special operations, performing pivotal actions in Imperial victories on Sullust and Thyferra.

As the war with the rebels escalated his missions became more brutal, and by "Imperial war law" illegal, such as seizure of civilian targets, destruction of civilian resources, and executions (which he personally refused to carry out).

Later, the Nightwraiths participated in the battle of Hoth. Rackis, who had achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel by that time, and his team were assigned to covert raiding, and sabotage of the rebel base on the planet. This is where Rackis saw his chance. After he had personally infiltrated the base, he posed as a rebel transport pilot and escaped to Mon-Calamari, and later the outer rim. There he assumed the name Kelvin Rixx, and started contracting himself as a "Lawman for hire"

Personality:
Grizzled. Rixx has a mean streak a mile wide, but he focuses it on his current contract. He often "mistreats" criminal suspects, especially if they have Imperial service in their background, and is generally intolerant of overt criminal activity. He seems to have a very black and white outlook on the world, you're either criminal or by-stander, and in his eyes it doesn't take much to cross that line.

Vehicle of Choice:
Imperial patrol skimmer. This is an atmospheric patrol vehicle used for standard patrol and emergency reconnaissance. A gunner sits in the forward of two positions, or the gun and turret can be automated by the pilot. He also owns an Imperial shuttle transport.

Form of Dress:
"Leather" boots, worn fatigues, Rebel combat vest, helmet, and goggles. "Leather" gunbelt with a big blaster pistol in holster, and a jagged serrated knife on the other side. Small holdout slugthrower obviously stuck into left boot. Concussion rifle usually slung across his back.

Superhuman Powers and Abilities
None

Abilities and Skills:
Talents and Interests: Rixx has a preternatural calm about him, seeming blasé at situations that would even frighten a Jedi. He has great skill with firearms of all types, but seems to prefer hand to hand combat, which he is also extraordinarily skilled at

Rixx is also a good gambler, but often finds himself in debt to the local loan shark.
