Personality
Arcturus is the type of guy that just wants to have fun. He is a very easy going individual and usually gets along with most of the people that he meets. Although there are some people that Arcturus really doesn’t get along with no matter what the situation. The types of people that he really can’t stand are Imperials, bounty hunters, and individuals that think they are funny. Whenever he meets someone that he doesn’t like he usually doesn’t hesitate to say how he feels about him. He is especially nice to women and views himself as quite the ladies man. While others may not view him this way he is usually a smooth talker and knows how to connect with people. Arcturus is tolerant of aliens as long as they start any trouble with him.
Generally Arcturus tries to avoid an unnecessary fight. But even though he prefers not to fight it doesn’t mean that he is a stranger to combat. Over the years he has become proficient with both a blaster pistol and a vibroblade. When he knows that there will be a fight Arcturus usually won’t prepare most of the time and more often than not will just wing it. Being stealthy and careful is by no means Arcturus’ forte. His tactics aren’t too complex as he usually doesn’t think rationally. Charging in recklessly with guns blazing is usually the way he approaches a battle. This usually gets him captured but he always finds a way to escape. Not through his skill however but rather relying heavily upon luck.
Often times he does not work. It isn’t to say that he is lazy but rather he finds it hard to become motivated to do work. He’ll usually do work only when he needs the money or is offered some extra incentive. Due to this he has almost went into debt several times but always finds a way to make ends meet. Even though he has almost gone into debt he still hasn’t gotten the idea in his head that he should work more to avoid this and if you were to add in the fact that he loves to gamble and drink it just makes his life harder than it has to be.
Growing up Arcturus learned how to repair and pilot ships. Most of his spare time is spent working on his ship Discretion since it calms his nerves. Nothing makes him feel more free than when he is flying through space in his ship whether it be for a smuggling job or just drifting around. The one thing that he does not enjoy about flying is complex maneuvers. It isn’t because he can’t perform them but rather that whenever he has pulled off something he usually has a mild case of nausea. Arcturus has tried to overcome this disadvantage over the years but just can’t seem to get over motion sickness. He still tries complicated maneuvers but only in emergencies when he needs to get away from someone.
Belongings
Aside from whatever clothing that he may be wearing Arcturus usually has an array of weaponry on him. This includes a bryar blaster pistol and a vibroknife that he always has on him no matter what the situation. He also occasionally carries different explosives which include det packs, concussion grenades, thermal detonators, and even some that he has made himself. Arcturus also has a ship that he uses for smuggling called Discretion.
Arc has recently acquired a pair of DC-17 repeating blasters and a YT-1930 after losing Discretion aboard Jergen Callow's ship in Chaos.
History
Born on Coruscant, Arcturus began his life living in wealth and comfort. His father, Isamov Gunsiri, was a very successful trader. He had never known his mother as she had died shortly after Arc was born. As a result of this he spent much of his childhood traveling with his father on different jobs across the galaxy. The bond between Arcturus’ father and him was very strong. While traveling through the galaxy whenever his father had a spare moment it was spent with Arcturus. Usually his father taught him how to pilot the ship and make minor repairs but occasionally he would let him come with him whenever he dealt with customers.
As the years passed it seemed that Arcturus wasn’t going to have much trouble in his life. His father had been teaching him about his trade and Arcturus was being trained to become a trader just like his father was. However that was until the two were attacked by bounty hunters on one of their jobs. It turned out that Arcturus’ father had a bounty put on his head because another trader wanted some of his clients. The bounty hunters were about to board the ship and Arcturus had been prepared to stay and fight with Isamov. But his father wouldn’t allow it. Right before the enemies boarded the ship Isamov knocked him out and threw him in the escape pod.
Arcturus had awoken later finding himself in the escape pod. He knew the fate that had befallen his father and wanted nothing more than to find whoever did this and get revenge. After drifting through space for what seemed like forever his pod landed on the desert planet of Tattooine. Upon landing he was in the middle of the desert. Getting out he wandered before passing out from the heat of the suns. A few hours later he awoke in a bed and wondered how he had got there. A man by the name of Yaza had walked in and explained how he had found him. Yaza had been out purchasing some items from the Jawas when he found Arcturus in the desert.
With no money and no place to stay this was the first time Arcturus had not lived comfortably. He asked Yaza if there was anywhere for him to find work. Yaza had replied by offering to hire him on at his junk shop. The shop mainly fixed up old droids but also dealt with different types of transportation and machines as well. Arcturus had become quite the mechanic over the course of a few years and it seemed as if he had finally found a place to call home once again. But somehow word had gotten out that he was still alive and the same trader that had wanted his father dead put a bounty on his head rather than take a risk of him becoming a trader and getting back his father’s clients. Yaza was out of the shop when the bounty hunters attacked and rather than staying to fight Arcturus ran. He ran to Yaza’s ship and stole it in order to escape. The ship was large enough that it could hold a lot of cargo but could also easily be operated by one or two people.
Having know idea where to go he just wandered the galaxy over the next six years doing odd jobs and searching for the man that put a bounty on his head so he could live in peace. During his travels throughout the galaxy he met a woman by the name of Siren Blaze. The two met in a bar and were in a brief relationship together but it didn’t last too long. Arcturus and Siren ended up parting ways mainly because he wasn’t serious about the relationship. The relationship had been based mainly on the "fun" that they had together. Arcturus loved her creative ways on how to have fun and there never seemed to be a dull moment when he was with her. Although the two broke up he harbors no ill will towards her and hasn’t really talked to her since then. Arcturus has no idea that Siren is a bounty hunter. Partially because he didn't ask her what she did for a living and also because she never told him. Currently he is on the run from the Imperials because they found out that during the purge he had assisted several Jedi in escaping. He continues to have a good time even though he is being hunted and is hoping one day that he’ll finally find a place to call home.
