Shiri Thlaz is a former assassin for the Ratrizar Empire and current Barmaid/Dancer at the Paunchy Ualgom.
Like most of her kind, from a young age, Shiri was trained to be a master at killing, dusk till Dawn she would practice and study the 13 ways of Pagashin, a Kithi system of styles on how to best and kill foes in both combat and secrecy.
A ruthless, remorseless killer, Shiri completed her training at the age of 16 and was quickly shipped off world to work under the Ratrizar’s Counter-Intelligence and Assassination divisions. During these years, she was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of beings who were deemed ‘’threats’’ by the empire, never once failing or faltering a mission.
This all came crashing down however, during her last and final mission. Tasked with infiltrating and assassinating a United Coalition Admiral, Shiri spent a year undercover as a personal assistant to the human male whom she had marked for death, during this time, she spent many days in close proximity to her target, noting how unlike the propaganda instilled into her by Ratrizar, this human of the UC was kind, caring and gentle towards her, treating her with a dignity and respect she had never felt before.
Eventually, on the day she was set to finally complete her mission and snuff out his light, she found herself paralysed, unable to bring about this humans death, she had developed feelings towards him, and he himself felt the same. Explaining her roll to him with deep remorse and professing her love, the two fled both the United Coalition and Ratrizar to settle down on a remote and rural world.
Their new, much more simple lives as farmers didn’t offer much, but they had each other, that was until she returned home one day to find her past had caught up to her. Her lover was dead, murdered at the hands of her former compatriots, and she was next.
Fleeing from her pursuers, Shiri wound up in the one place she felt she would never be found, the mega-city of Warraxx. With no money and nobody, she took up a job as a barmaid at a local club headed by Grelak Forlugi, laying low under a new name in the hopes she would be finally free of her former life.
