Ustan Zahara grew up on the streets of Druckenwell. He quickly learned to let his silver tongue do the talking and created quite the crowd of swoopers and roughens. Eventually he had enough of a following they became known as the Silver Jaws, a swoop and smuggling gang of Druckenwell, with Ustan as their leader.
Brash and fickle, Ustan was always able to sway others to his side. However, he himself was very surprised when the Rebel Alliance came knocking on his door, requesting his help in leading a revolt on his home planet. After putting the alliance representatives through the ringer a little, Ustan agreed.
The revolt of SGI Area Nine was never designed by the Rebels to be win-able and many of Ustan's Silver Jaws perished. The Empire had occupied Druckenwell heavily in the following years, stamping out all signs of revolt, arresting and killing most of the remaining Silver Jaws. Ustan soon found himself with only a few close friends left.
Ustan had been played ends against the middle in the galactic civil war, and knew neither side would be his cause. So he decided profit beat principles and after the Emperor fell at Endor, Ustan left Druckenwell behind. He would seek out new fortunes as a propagandist for hire. He would line his own pockets while warriors battled nonsensically on.
Need the enemy demoralized? Ustan would work his way into the enemy ranks and deliver a message of impending doom, hopelessness, and of such loss, no one would be left to fight . Need your own troops galvanized for the battle to come? Ustan was always collecting friends and raising spirits... for the right price.
Ustan's background as a swooper and smuggler means that he knows how to the fly, but in his heart he is a leader of men and women. That is just as long as it's profitable.
