Player Name: Manda or Silvy
Full Name: Daeva Dragao
Age: 37
Birth Date: January 3, 2275
Homeworld: Unknown
Significant Relations and Affiliations: “The Dragon Network,” her spider’s web of thieves and spies that answer only to her. She has some alliances with other criminal enterprises, which mainly amount to not stepping on each others’ toes.
Bonds, Obligations, Debts, and Warrants: She uses proxies in almost all her dealings, and has taken steps to make sure she is far removed from the actual crimes anywhere outside of Warden - but the authorities are aware of a shadow figure pulling certain strings, and if they could link those strings to Daeva, she’d be one of the most wanted women in the galaxy.
Appearance: Daeva has light brown skin and full lips, with deceptively warm brown eyes and long, thick hair that would have a mind of its own if her hairdresser didn’t sculpt and spray it into submission. Everything about her look is cultivated, from her long, wicked nails to her face itself, which has been surgically altered such that no facial recognition software could match her to any identity in their database.
Daeva augments her diminutive 5’4 height with platforms and stiletto heels on every occasion, claiming an extra three to five inches of height depending on the outfit. She has an expensive taste, running toward silk and velvet, and owns a kimono certified to have come from Japan itself that she keeps at her vacation home on Paradise. Some smugglers tried to steal it once, and she’s still making them pay for it, even though no damage was done.
Personality: Ruthless, territorial, and wickedly creative in some terrifying ways, Daeva strives for a disarming demeanor that is more unsettling than anything else. She is highly ambitious and dreams of someday being at the top of a galaxy-spanning enterprise where she owns every drug dealer, thief, and pirate in the black.
She’s vicious, and has some vindictive tendencies when it comes to getting ‘payback’ from those who have wronged her. She never forgets a debt or a face.
Strengths, Talents, Abilities: Daeva is rich, with loyal lieutenants that fear her as much as they love her generous compensation packages. She has a variety of ‘employees’ with skills she values. If someone manages to get in her debt, if they’re useful to her, she’ll put them to work. She has enough clout that other kingpins leave her alone, and are willing to work with her on occasion if it benefits both parties.
Weaknesses and Fears: “Known” weaknesses are few, but there is a rumored phobia of space travel, where it’s said that Daeva must sedate herself heavily whenever she leaves Warden Station. She obsessively collects unique objects from history and works of art, and will go overboard in trying to acquire them. She is said to be very overconfident and thus short-sighted when it comes to her domain on Warden.
History: Daeva Drago’s origins are shrouded in mystery. She’s run the dark underbelly of Warden Station for the last decade, appearing out of nowhere and replacing the previous organization overnight. Once her footing on Warden was solid, she built up cells of illegal activity on other stations and some planets, building up her empire one racket at a time. If it’s made on Warden, she can sell it for the right price, and sometimes that price comes in the form of favors no one wants to owe.
She’s made examples of those who broke their word to her in the past, with live streamed punishments via her proxy that ended with the victim begging for the airlock. Her ruthlessness and uncompromising standards have made others tread carefully when dealing with her, and her employees obey out of fear as much as the generous pay. It can’t be all stick, no carrot, after all.
She’s only dabbled in the drug trade until recently, when a Paradisian boy was caught selling something special - on her station, no permission, no kickbacks. So she ordered him spaced. Her boys tossed him in the airlock, and brought her the formula for the drug he’d been working on. She handed it over to her pet chemist, who was able to develop a delightfully addicting party drug out of the original formula. Business has been booming ever since, and she’s started working out deals with drug kingpins on various planets to bring her new euphoric drug to new markets.
