Bio:
Born to the son of a desperate and poor family in the slums of Naboo, Zhian was raised as a frugal and humble man with high morals, despite his surroundings.
His parents, heirs from a long line of the secretive White Lotus clan, did well to teach Zhian about their traditions, scriptures, and various disciplines of martial arts; used by the ancestors of the clan as tools of assassination. Because of the nature of the clan in previous generations, members of the White Lotus had many enemies who desired nothing more than revenge.
Zhian was well trained in all areas of the teachings of the White Lotus clan, but was never allowed to use them for fear of exposing the existence of the clan; and was constantly forced to stand down and tolerate the humilation from many of the hoodlum hooligans and gangsters.
Although life was harsh and unforgiving, Zhian and his family survived until Zhian came of age, and was then forced to leave his home by customary tradition of the clan. On the day of his coming of age, he left home in a beat down ship his father purchased from a nearby junkyard as a gift to his son.
His father also handed down to him the family relic; the Sword of the White Lotus, a sword of pure, pristine white, with a blade forged with the rare Steel of the White Lotus. A sacred artefact passed down from the very ancestors themselves, the sword was now in Zhian's possession; the responsibility of a great secret was laid upon him.
It wasn't long before Zhian realised that the universe beyond Naboo was less than welcoming for hungry travellers such as himself; he was forced agian to adapt, to learn, to survive. It wasn't until after many mishaps, bad trades, bad decisions and bad meetings with bad people that he finally understood how to survive in the unforgiving galaxy.
He had not forgotten his teachings, and he had not forgotten his parents or his clan. In a cruel galaxy, those were the only warm memories Zhian could hang onto as days passed by during his less than glamourous travels.
While on a smuggling run, Zhian caught wind of a rumour that members of the White Lotus survived on Coruscant. Wanting to learn more about the history of his people, Zhian headed to the main Coruscant Space Port in order to find them...
Ship: The ship Zhian travels in is an old mecenary class cargo ship with slight modifications on the engines and the hyper-drive in order to increase the speed and efficiency of the ship. It's name is the Zhun Zhi.
