Name: Chorra
Race: Asari (Quarian father)
Class: Adept
Biotics: Chorra appears to be an extremely powerful biotic, much like her mother was, but due to her domineering aunt she doesn’t know how to do much besides create shields. However, these are very, very powerful shields and even someone highly skilled would have problems getting past it.
Age: 132
Height: 5’ 2”
Appearance:
Personality: Chorra is a precocious and timid girl. When working she is a talkative and persuasive saleswoman. Off work, she is a nervous and private person, generally keeping to herself.
Normally Carries: A heavy shotgun, which used to belong to her father, standard omni tool, various personal affects (since she’s traveling) and a collection of her parent’s old journals and files which she is steadily pouring over trying to scrounge up contacts and connections she can use to track down her friend.
Quirks: Chorra is a very awkward girl and has been for most of her life. She has a few friends, who tend to be just as awkward as she is, and spends most of her free time surfing the extranet and reading celebrity gossip magazines. She even has a collection of autographs from different celebrities (including one from Commander Shepard even).
Occupation: Senior Sales Attendant
Motivation: Chorra is motivated mostly by a desire to help her friend, but for her running off to the Terminus systems is also a way to learn more about her parents and finally break out of the timid, nervous shell her domineering aunt built for her.
History: Chorra is the daughter of an Asari Commando gone rogue assassin, Bast, and an exiled Quarian turned mercenary, Rajed. The two went through plenty of dangerous adventures together, blowing up slaving ships and space stations, killing gang lords, and doing lots of other crazy shit. Eventually, they decided to do the one thing they’d always sworn to avoid, and settle down to start a family. Chorra was the tiny, lavender result. Bast and Rajed adored her, and tried their very best to have a normal life with her, but they just weren’t very good at daily life when it didn’t involve guns and explosions.
Most of Chorra’s childhood was spent in the care of her aunt Bes, while her parents were off continuing their adventures. They visited as often as they could, and Chorra adored them too much to hold any grudges against them for their constant disappearances. Her Aunt Bes was in a state of constant disapproval of her sister, due not only to her violent lifestyle but also to having mated with a Quarian. Still, she doted on Chorra and did her best to make sure the young girl didn’t end up like her parents, running around the galaxy like a bunch of crazy vigilantes.
Before Chorra could even reach adolescence, disaster struck. Her parents died in an assault on a mercenary base, managing to destroy their target but perishing in the ensuing explosion. Chorra was devastated and left permanently in the care of her aunt. Bes promptly moved the two of them to the Citadel to get as far away from that “ridiculous mercenary nonsense” as she could, and for the next hundred or so years raised Chorra into the precocious, awkward girl she is today. Bes took every step possible to make sure that Chorra did not end up like her parents, constantly lecturing her on the dangers of the galaxy and everything in it, and forbid Chorra from developing her biotics in anything past shielding and defense.
During the Battle of the Citadel, Chorra and Bes were among the many citizens taken unaware by the invading Geth. Bes was quickly gunned down but Chorra is narrowly saved by a quick-thinking C-Sec officer. Sticking with the officer, Chorra uses her biotic talents to create a powerful shield to protect them from danger. The battle eventually ended, and Chorra and the C-Sec officer headed towards one of the safer areas. They were separated by the crowds before Chorra can thank him or learn his name. With Bes dead, Chorra finds herself suddenly very much alone, and, with no other direction in life, she decides to remain on the Citadel, helping rebuild and eventually resuming her job as a shop clerk in Zakera Ward. She leads a pretty dull life, until when dealing with an unruly shoplifter the same C-Sec officer that had helped her in the battle comes to her aid, arresting the man. The two struck up a friendship and became close. Very close. Not close enough to start dating because they were both very awkward and avoided the subject because they are terrible with romance, but if one of them had just sucked it up and asked, that’s exactly where it would have gone.
And then he disappeared. Worried, Chorra put her socialization fears behind her and did some digging around, eventually using some of her parent’s old contacts to find out that her C-Sec friend had gone to the Terminus system to pursue a dangerous lead, and had dropped out of contact. Taking probably the first serious risk of her life, Chorra dug up her parent’s old files and some of their equipment, ended the lease on her apartment, and took a leave from her job (because quitting outright would be just a little too drastic for her) and boarded a shuttle to the Terminus system, determined to track down her friend.
And maybe finally get in his pants, you know? But mainly track him down.
