Salem Rios - Male Feeorin - GA Intelligence officer [Asok]

Okidoki, I saw someone else has placed two requests at a time, so why can't I? Of course, if it's not liked to be seen here to often, I can take down one of the requests. ;)

This time around, another of my fanfic OCs, but for a change, not a Mando or a human.

Name: Salem Rios
Species: Feeorin
Gender: male
Skin complexion: jet black
Height: 1.79 meters (5'10'') (short and thin for a Feeorin)
Age: about 39 years
Other stand-out features: none, as an Intelligence officer, trademark features like tattoos or birthmarks are only counterproductive, and Rios had all his birthmarks surgically erased

Appearance:
Salem Rios is a jet black complected, rather short and slender Feeorin, who, apart from his unusual skintone, is totally generic looking, what serves his role as a Galactic Alliance Intelligence officer a lot. He usually wears the GAI uniform all of the time, he only uses disguises when it comes to covert operations. Holstered to his belt is a small holdout blaster pistol, a comlink and a datapad.

Since there is no official depiction of how a GAI uniform looks like, the design is totally up to you. Just remember, the GA is based of the New Republic, so using an Imperial design is probably misplaced. But don't make it look to military, either, maybe a bit more casual and less rigid.

Bio:
Salem Rios was born on Coruscant during the New Order, and being a non-human, he had to spend most of his youth in the non-human districts of Imperial Center. At the age of 15, he joined a resistance group on the planet, with connections to the Rebel Alliance, and did his part to help the Rebel seizure of Coruscant in 7 ABY. With his talents mainly in spying and informations broking, he got the attention of Alliance Intelligence (and later New Republic Intelligence Service), which he joined and received the proper training of an agent. But since he also had first-hand experience with fighting groups and had seen some action, he later often worked together as an Intelligence advisor on SpecOps and SpecForce operations. He stayed with NRIS, even into the early Yuuzhan Vong invasion, where his work got brought him closer and closer to the action. Thus, he also got involved into the sort-of alliance between the NR and the Mandalorians, who were officially allies to the Vong but fed the NR and later GA with decisive intel whenever they could. Rios sometimes worked together with the Jedi Kubariet, there, and helped some individual Mandalorians into the NR to serve as military advisors and training sergeants, like the Cuy'val Dar for the Republic Commandos of old. In the late war, when the Mandalorians had eventually officially switched sides after the Vong attacked them, Rios even worked together with Mandalorian groups to fight off Yuuzhan Vong.

Personality:
Salem Rios was known to never get himself into big troubles, because he only spoke up after thorough considerations as to what consequences his words might have. Thus, he was very poised and calm, and never let his emotions cross with his logic and rationale. He even had some diplomatic talents, maybe because of his constant caution and self-monitoring, what made him a perfect man to work with sensible matters like rash special forces or edgy Mandalorians. He was some sort of out-of-the book intelligence officer, who never allowed himself a faux pas and always seemed to do the right thing at the right time. But because of his focus on his work, his personal life suffered a lot, and he didn't really have any close friends apart from the people he worked with all the time. Some called him a lone wolf, but at least he was known to get the job done. His overall attitude didn't come from itself, either. Back in the resistance group prior to the Rebel conquest of Coruscant, he had screwed up big time, and that twice, once causing the arrest of a whole squad of his comrades by the Imperials, and the other time blowing a whole important operation because he hadn't watched his mouth. Consequently, he learned from his faults and did his best never to repeat them, which he mostly managed.

Sooo... I hope that should give you an idea of my character. I'm giving you a lot of artistic freedom there, as I have no real mental image of him, yet. But for the scene and pose, either you can make something from his personality, kinda showing him reflect his action, or do something Intelligence-typical, like holding a comlink to his mouth and a datapad on the other hand, while leaning against a wall or something. It's only an idea, but please make something that either reflects his job, his personality, or both, if you can manage that.

That said, I'd really appreciate if someone takes this request. We haven't seen many Feeorin out there, either, so maybe that's enough to get your attention. :P

No, just kidding, I want to thank everyone who even considers taking this request in advance, I'll really be indebted to you. :)

And in any regard, thanks to whoever even read this far. :P

Keep it up, guys, SWAG FTW! xD

I am considering taking on this request. What did you have in mind for a pose or setting?

Sounds great, man! :D As it reads in my first pose, no demands on the pose, but the setting portrays him in his older time as a GA agent, set during the Vong war. Maybe just think of a cool James Bond scene, but with less action, that should get you inspired.

Thanks a lot in advance, man, I appreciate it a lot. :)
