Name: Tarek Shane
Gender: Male
Age: 35
Species: Human (Corellian)
Skills: Tarek Shane is nicknamed ‘Wreck’ because anyone who goes up against him in hand-to-hand combat tends to end up in a bit of a wreck. He’s violent, agile, and nearly impossible to take down. Punch after punch can land solidly without seeming to affect him much. In addition, he’s very good with explosives (lots of them) and very big guns. You need someone thrown around, blown up, or blasted to bits, Tarek’s the one to call.
Equipment: Various types and sizes of explosives, a DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle (usually disassembled and in his pack with the explosives), and he has an S-5 heavy blaster pistol strapped to his right hip

History: Given the level of violence caused by Tarek Shane in his school years, no one ever thought he’d be more than a professional fighter. But a quick look at his transcript (when he wasn’t suspended) would tell you he’s actually relatively smart. He managed to graduate high school, though he was nineteen when that finally took place. Though his grades were good enough and scholarships were offered, Tarek opted to avoid any higher education.
Just after high school, Tarek was offered a job as a bodyguard and he accepted it. Halfway through the first day, he worked out that the ‘job’ was a test put on by CorSec. Impressed with his discernment – and his school track record – they offered him training, and then a job. He took both, and he’s been working for CorSec ever since.
He is partnered with Darja Bryn.
Name: Darja Bryn
Gender: Female
Age: 30
Species: Human (Corellian)
Skills: Darja Bryn is a literal genius, with a photographic memory. If she sees or hears something, she’ll remember it until she makes a conscious effort to dismiss it from her mind. Therefore, over the years, she has become an expert in interpreting and speaking several languages fluently. She has also mastered all things electronic. If Tarek can’t break a door down, it’s quite possible that Darja can hack into the security systems and open the door... if Tarek hasn’t ruined it in his attempts. Furthermore, in contrast to Tarek, Darja is extremely level-headed and slow to anger. This makes them the ideal ‘good cop, bad cop’ team.
Equipment: Darja carries assorted computer interface equipment, a datapad, and two blaster pistols. Before she met Tarek, Darja used a DH-17 blaster pistol, and though she still carries it, she has also taken to carrying an S-5 heavy blaster pistol as well. “Damn Tarek,” she laughs when this is pointed out. “He’s rubbing off on me.”

History: Nothing is known about Darja Bryn before she joined CorSec at the age of twenty. Only Tarek has ever heard hints of what his partner’s past was like, and only that because she trusts him not to squawk. If any of the rest of the team asks her about her past, she merely arches an eyebrow and replies icily, “That’s between me and the past.” If he is asked, Tarek laughs and says, “Once upon a time, in a far away land...” but that’s usually as far as he gets before someone throws something at him.
But even Jace knows that Darja’s past hardly changes what she is in the present; a dependable, dedicated, and highly talented CorSec detective.
