A life anew. Though he had lived already a span of twenty years, Liam Blood had seen and inflicted more horrors than most beings did in a lifetime lasting centuries. Life had changed forever in the past few months, and in the week leading up to his twentieth birthday, a new chapter would begin...
Sitting on the basic cot in the spartan accomodations he'd taken for a week in one of Coruscant's lesser districts, Liam was scrolling through information on a datapad. The sound of passing speeders wasn't quite muffled by the thin durasteel walls of the room generously referred to as an apartment. Flicking a curl of sweat-soaked hair back from his forehead; the insulation and cooling wasn't great either, it was a hot day, Liam grunted as he continued to read through the dossiers.
Having spent the past six years working indirectly for Imperial Intelligence, Liam had amassed a wealth of data on Imperial and non-Imperial personnel, contacts, storehouses, logistics and even R & D. Had his former employers known of his pilferage, he knew he would be very dead. The thing of it was, they already knew him to be dead, and he wasn't about to correct their oversight. It had cost him six months and several million embezzled credits to pull it off, but his final Operation on the desert world of Tatooine of all places had been his last. A few well-paid bounty hunters who knew nothing of the plan beyond their roles, and a cleverly staged cave-in in front of several independent witnesses had sealed his file in the Imperial Archives for good.
Taking the name Liam Blood as his new true identity, he had left Imperial Space and headed to the Core to start his own independent operation. The next few months would be spent purchasing, recruiting and making new alliances. It would prove, if nothing else, to be an interesting experience...

It had been three months since Liam Blood had taken back his life from the Empire. He had soon realised that an organization like the one he envisioned would suffer from being tied down to any one location, and thus began his forays into starship purchase. Creating a semi-fictitious Outer Rim freighting corp to cover the acquisitions had been easier than retrofitting the main vessel and selecting a crew.
Liam paced the still unfinished command salon of the Victory II Star Destroyer he had rechristened the Bounty. He was engrossed in a datapad showing him the latest trade account balances of his organization that the members were referring to as Bounty's.
Made up of Corellian smugglers, Mandalorian mercs, Balmorran arms dealers, Twi'lek spice runners, Verpine technicians, Wookiee soldiers, as well as a few even rarer and more unique species, Bounty's was an eclectic crew. Though relations between comrades were often strained, with dozens of languages and cultures meshing together, the payoff was more than worth it to the organization, which benefited from the expertise of each group. Liam dealt directly only with his leadership council of twelve, eleven of the best and brightest, plus himself, and between them, they ran the entire group of well over thirteen thousand beings, spread across a hundred worlds.
A row of results from Coruscant took his attention, he paused his scanning to frown, then he looked up at the row of monitors on a wall that showed the exterior of the vessel, showing a view of space twinkling with a million stars, and the glowing cityscape below of the galactic capital's night side.
Coruscant. Too big for anyone to control. Sooner we're out of here the better. Liam reached out a hand to tap a comm panel. A male's deep baritone emerged from the speaker
Bridge here.
Bridge, this is Command. Once preparations are complete, break orbit, set course for our first destination. Liam ordered crisply.
Preparations will be complete in twenty minutes, Commander. Course laid in.
Very well, Command out. Liam cut the connection, satisfied.
Now, he would write his own adventures...
