The Robur-Cordis Legacy, Star Wars The Old Republic

Robur Cordis in Latin means Strength Of Heart.  It was chosen to reflect the very character of the women and men in the legacy.

Republic Characters:

Class:  Vanguard (Tank)



Main:  Rhiordan Monria Carrick, Thyrsian/Echani by blood.  She was born and raised on Coruscant but according to Thyrsian culture despite not learning the language until recently.  She's 25 years old.  Her birth date being the day before Life Day.

Her father is Senator Monroe Carrick, son of Garian and Ordis Carrick, their Thyrsian names were changed when they left Thyrsus when Monroe was an infant and joined the SIS.  Her father works as legal adjunct to the Chancellor.

Her mother is Senator Sarsian Ra'ial,  Senator of District 2, Coruscant.  Born on Thrysus and raised on Coruscant by foster parents.   Sarsian kicked Rhio out when she was thirteen and strung out on spice.  They do not speak to each other and Sarsian has decided not to attend the wedding due to the impending divorce from her father.

From ages infant to six years old, Rhio was allowed to be a normal child.  At six years old, she was enrolled in a private military school on Coruscant and taught the martial arts.  She was a black belt in several by the age of thirteen.  At thirteen, she was rebellious and kicked out of her mother's home when she was found strung out on spice in the Black Suns territory on Coruscant.  She moved in with her father's mistress, Charmaign, who became a mother to her showing her all the love her birth mother didn't give her.  At almost fourteen, a drug clean and socially accepted Rhiordan joined the Culinary on Coruscant and received a gold medal upon graduation at sixteen.  When she was seventeen, she was a med student on Coruscant and was a runway model to pay her way through school.  She wanted to do it on her own though she had a large inheritance and respectable and financially well off parents.

At eighteen, Rhiordan met Adan Bri'an'can, a Thyrsian in the Republic military, and found out that he was the one who rescued her from the Black Suns territory and brought her home to her father.  She worshiped him from afar for six months until he asked her out.  She made a career choice then.  She quit med school and followed him into the Republic military where she did very well, making captain in three years and major in seven.  After dating Adan for four years, he proposed to her.  He was killed in action a year later on Corellia.

After Adan's death, Rhiordan went into a downward spiral, attempting to take her own life.  General Bri'an'can took her to Thyrsus, her first trip there, to take the Walk of Widows, a Thrysian tradition when a warrior leaves the mortal world to follow the sun god.  His wife may follow him or she may take the life of other beasts to give her life back.  Rhiordan chose to live.

At age twenty five, she met Dr. Rasos Wavingsky.  They were off to a very poor start in their relationship but she proved her love and loyalty by staying with him throughout their shaky start.  She is very much in love with him and adores him.  They will be married on Corellia on the first day after the new year.  Eventually making their home on Corellia.

Class: Gunslinger



Rhorrie Cadance Carrick, age twenty-three, is Rhiordan's half brother. There was no love between Monroe and Sarsian who'd been having an affair for several years with another Thyrsian in the Republic military, name unknown.  Though Monroe knew that Rhorrie was not his son by blood, he took Rhorrie as his own and treated him no differently that he did Rhiordan.  Rhorrie and Rhiordan were always very close.  He, being two years younger than she, looked up to her as a role model.  At eleven, he went to Rhiordan's room and saw that she was not there.  She left him a holovid telling him that she was leaving.  She couldn't handle the stress of a mother who didn't love her or her father and wasn't coming back.  Rhorrie took the vid to Monroe who sent out a search team immediately.  It took them seven days to find Rhiordan who was strung out on spice.  When they brought her back and took her to the institute to get clean, Rhorrie was by her side every day, cutting classes at private school to do so.  He tried to convince Sarsian that allowing Rhiordan to come home was the best thing but Sarsian would not hear of it and Rhiordan went to live with Charmaign Tarisini, a human who was known to be Monroe's consort.  After Rhiordan wasn't allowed to return home, Rhorrie vowed that he'd never love his mother again, that Monroe was his father and that Sarsian's lover would never be a father to him.

Rhorrie lived with Monroe and Sarsian, working in his father's legal office at the Senate Tower until he was twenty-one and travelled to Thrysus to search out his roots with Monroe's blessing and financing.  He's a natural born historian, loves his culture and his people.  In the two years on Thrysus, he dug up family history that pertained to Rhiordan, why she was so different and why he was so close to her.  He has yet to reveal this history feeling that it isn't quite time though he did show Monroe all of his research.  Rhorried learned to shoot with both hands on Thrysus becoming quite an accomplished shot.

Rhorrie decided to return home when Rhiordan left the military and start Galactic Security Solutions.  There was nothing he wanted more than to work for her and help her accomplish her goals.  He quickly became her second hand man and CEO of operations.

Class: Scoundrel (healer)


Dr. Larabie Robur-Cordis, age twenty-nine, trained at the Medical Academy of Coruscant for ten years, becoming a full surgeon at the age of twenty-six.  After two years of patching up the Coruscant thugs from the Black Suns and the Justicars, she was ready for a change.  She looked for private positions on Alderaan and interviewed for a position on Corellia in the Coronet Medical Center.  She met Rhiordan at a fund raising event to aid the wounded soldiers of the Republic a year after Rhiordan's fiance Adan Bri'an'can was killed in action.  They got along very well, Larabie having suffered recently the loss of her father, and corresponded with each other quite often.  When Rhiordan called to ask her if she'd like a position in Galactic Security Solutions as a staff doctor, she jumped at the chance even though her pay was cut by one third.  She now happily patches up the GSS team and takes care of all their medical needs.
