Personal history
Atai D'nar was born on Zygerria in 32797 TYA, a few years before the Sith Empire sacked the Republic's capital of Coruscant (32800 TYA). The subsequent treaty had tremendously prosperous effects on the Zygerrian Empire as a client state of the Sith Empire. The war brought in an influx of ‘products’ and wealth for the Slave Empire, pushing back the borders of the anti-slavery policies of the Galactic Republic and setting up a border connection between the Sith and Hutt Cartels.
During the Cold War period, Zygerria prospered exponentially. However, the rapid influx of slaves created a rift between the different social classes on Zygerria with an incredibly wealthy nobility. To try to combat this dominant nobility, the Zygerrian government implement the 'New Man Act', broadening the franchise of the nobility, allowing for the D'nar family to rise to minor Noble.
At this time the D'nar family had a net worth of around 2.6 million Credits. The family’s main source of income was Krae D'nar's mining company on the planet of Rekkiad, manned mainly by slaves. It was this wealth that rose the family to minor noble status. Atai's upbringing was one of relative privilege and pampering. The family’s wealth only heightens from profiteering from the renewed war against the Republic, bringing the family and Zygerria to their economic peak for a generation.
When the Eternal Empire defeated the Republic and Empire, Atai left his family on Zygerria to make his own fortunes in Hutt Space, believing that his father and family were foolish to make their fortunes from their homeworld because of Zygerria's close link and reliance on the Sith Empire's demand for slave labour which was volatile and unreliable. In the 6 years since leaving his homeworld, Atai has jumped between petty gangs and small crew operations, learning a few skills on the way and being able to fend for himself in combat. Atai made sure to never settle down with any one organisation and has steered clear of the bigger factions like the Hutt's, the Exchange, and the Czerka Corporation, among others. Atai is determined to create a business for himself outside of the Zygerrian Empire and is constantly looking for any opportunities that spell profit. Having spent so long centred on Nar Shadda and with the Galactic War between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic escalating again, Atai sees now as the perfect time to broaden his horizons and seek work elsewhere.
The Eternal Empire's invasion of the galaxy however set about a change in the winds, the Eternal fleet's dominance against the Empire and Republic made intergalactic trade incredibly difficult and hazardous. For the many smaller businesses and minor nobles on Zygerria the sudden lack of imports and inability to export products set the stage for a catastrophic crash of the socio-economic hierarchy on Zygerria. The D'nar family were one of many families hit by this crash, while legally maintaining their status as nobles the family were now no richer than the common man.
