Clothing:
Flisha tends to wear a Thalian military issue jumpsuit from
before the Imperial treaty, embroidered with the family crests of
Nereb, the Imperial crests of House Almiran, and other
ornamentation. She will also wear ornate civilian clothes, and
large amounts of jewelry and gold trim when not aboard ship, or
dealing with pirates.
Retainers, henchmen, and associates:
Flisha has the fullest confidence in her pilots, most of whom
own from 20%-60% of the title to their ship. She is quite close to
her crew and gunners, particularly her co-pilot, Rashak El Mar, a
Thallian with whom she is emotionally involved. She also is quite
friendly with her various contacts, mostly Yaeger and independent
pirates, and the occasional crooked military industry executive.
Common haunts and habitues:
Flisha will usually be found in the seedier weapons markets of
the sector, and in the middle of pirate fleets. Most other times,
she will be selling her wares to Chakh military officers, mostly
those from less well trained and less elite units, who are willing
to use whatever weapons they can afford. Occasionally, she will
sneak back on to Thaln to transfer money and weapons to the Almiran
pretender to the throne and to his supporters, but these visits are
kept brief by House Almiran's fugitive position.
History:
A young officer in the Thalian navy, Flisha jumped ship when
House Almiran declared for the throne. As she expected, her patron
house was far to weak to succeed in it's bid, and was quickly
isolated and nearly eradicated. The fortunes of House Nereb were
inextricably linked with Almiran, and if she had remained in the
Navy her opportunities for advancement would have vanished utterly.
Flying her stolen Yith-4 fighter out of Thalian space, Flisha
soon joined a mercenary band, which worked for several years
escorting merchant convoys through uncivilized space. Seeing where
the real money was, Flisha traded her fighter and savings for a
beat up freighter, and began flying cargos for the various pirate
fleets. Not as lucrative as piracy, it was a considerably more
lucrative career than direct cargo hauling, as pirate fleets had to
pay somewhat more than fair market value to lure merchants out to
sell them vitally needed supplies, and a rather safer career, as
hijacking her ship would have cut the pirates off from their source
of supplies.
When the Empire and the Chakh Empire split, Flisha started
running weapons into the Chakh Empire, dodging the border patrols
and the Imperial screening flights, to sell to a market that was
quickly flooded with Imperial merchandise. However, she continues
in this area because of covert government assistance, as the Chakh
Empire is not sure that it wants to be that reliant on Imperial
goods, for while they do not realize that the weapons they get are
transferred directly from Imperium stores, they do know that
increased Imperial border security could cripple their military,
and want to develop other sources of weapons.
Personality:
Flisha is a true swashbuckler, living in the moment, and doing
all she can to achieve the dramatic. The real reason that she
stays in the arms shipping business is to develop resources
required to support a bid for the Emerald Throne. While House
Nereb could never generate the kind of public support needed to
reach the throne, House Almiran could, and as soon as the immediate
pressure is relieved, she will start spending more time with the
pretender, helping him plan a more successful bid for power, with
the expectation of increased behind the scenes power for herself
and her house.
