biography "'Grayantos Thonaris?' Way too long. 'Gray' is way too common. How about... Graython?" - Captain Lena | |
Grayantos "Gray" Thonaris was born in 14 BTC on Coruscant. His mother died in childbirth, leaving his father, a spacer, to raise him and his other brother Chryanthelios, or "Chrysos." Graython's earliest memories are of his father's ship, the Gharzr, and the planets his father took him to. That ended when Graython was 9. A job gone wrong ended with the destruction of the Gharzr and the death of his father and stranded Chrysos and Gray on Nar Shaddaa. The two brothers lived in the old Refugee Sector, scrounging, stealing, and scavenging whatever they could. Graython had a preference for stealing tech and tinkering with it. His penchant for wandering got him into trouble with both unsavory people and his protective brother. Gray eventually came to resent and even quietly hate Chrysos for trying to replace their father. Months after their friend Idalrei joined the Republic army, Gray, fourteen, was kidnapped by pirates looking for easy slaves among the refugees. Gray spent four years about the Silver Storms' ship. He lived so long only because the Storms found his aptitude for technology useful. But during a supply stop on Abregado-rae, Gray took the opportunity to run. He stowed away on the first ship he could find: the Dead Exogorth, a smuggler's freighter owned by one Captain Lena. Lena discovered Gray almost immediately, but took him into her crew after he gave her his story. Lena, in turn, gave him a new alias: Graython (Grayantos Thonaris) A year into Graython's time on the Dead Exogorth, he found out that Chrysos had been looking for him. Not wanting to leave his crew for a brother he resented, he sent Chrysos a message telling him to stop searching. Another year passed, then Captain Lena and the rest of the crew died in after they unwittingly breached a contract with the Hutts. Lena's "will" had the ship passed onto the senior-most surviving crew member: Graython. So Graython took the helm and renamed the Dead Exogorth the Gharzr II. Graython took to the smuggling career quickly--he could pay the bills and follow in his father's spacing footsteps. Four years later, a job found him on Ord Mantell. |

personality "What can I say? The ladies love a hero." - Graython | |
Graython's first passion is tech. Even the loveliest woman in the galaxy comes second to a state-of-the-art shield generator or sophisticated weaponry. He's been playing around with gadgetry since childhood, and as an adult he teaches himself bits of mechanical engineering from time to time. Contrastingly, Graython also holds a fascination for the supernatural--not just Jedi and the Force, but also superstitions and ghost stories. Life is best lived as a fantasy, according to Graython's personal philosophy. For him, that fantasy is his life as a bold, daring starship captain living life on the edge and having grand adventures around the galaxy--inspired by his impressions of his father's work. If Graython encounters something that doesn't fit into that fantasy, he rejects it through an apathetic front. This often causes him to do less-than-heroic things--like condemning a thief to a life as a test subject for a mad scientist. Graython has an undeniable social side. He loves the flirting game, loves crowds, and loves small talk. Most of his interactions tend to be shallow, however, giving people a similar impression of him. |

relationships "It's not my fault if the lady reads too much into one kiss." - Graython | |

miscellanea "Sometimes I think my ship's haunted--too many dead people associated with it. Personally, I like the whole 'supernatural mystique' it gives. Adds character." - Graython | |
Graython is naturally blonde, like his father and brother. He dyed it red when he joined Captain Lena's crew. | |
