Personal history
Little Sugmi: Grandma you know how you and grandpa and all the other old people moved here from human-land?
Sugmi's grand'am: STFU Timmy or whatever the hell my dumbass excuse for a daughter called you do you know what me and "all the other old people" did so you could live in this purple goddamn paradise huh? No, you don't! Because your momma don't want me to tell you how we all used to be pirates with a policy of selling all our pretty captives into slavery and the un-pretty ones into regular slavery and how we wouldn't merge with that stinkin' Zee Pirate Confederation so they murdered most of us and the rest of us had to run away into here LIR but we needed somewhere to stay that wouldn't take 50 years to get to so we went here and the owner of the planet offered us a place here if we murdered all the Tartles thingies cos they was breeding too fast and eating everything so we embarked on a brutal genocide campaign in which we murdered most of them poisoned the others and then released rabbit Tartle-eating dogs into the wilderness to kill off any that remained.
Little Sugmi: My name's Sugmi.
Sugmi's Grand'am: SUGMI BOELLS HA *dies of a heart attack*
Sugmi grew up as a Gen 3 inhabitant of Purple Flower planet and, as such, was bound in service to the Warlord Jihwprba, pronounced among humans as Jihup.
He and his 4 siblings were primarily taken care of by his grandma until he was 10, at which point she died of a heart attack after finding out his full name, because both of his parents spent a lot of their time working. This resulted in him having to take care of his younger siblings, which he was okay at at best, mostly just playing games with them and giving them food.
When he was 13 he was conscripted into Jihup's military forces and put through 7 years of training before actually being put to use in territorial skirmishes with several other warlords, during which he rose the ranks through a mixture of his superiors dying and needing replacements and him often being the best living replacement.
This ended up mattering when Sugmi was 23 as the LIR isn't a fan of the warlords in the areas it can't control fighting one another as this reduces the amount of taxes that can be squeezed out of them. The LIR's solution to this is the Sagwalli Templar, as ironic as that is considering they're a large part of why the LIR has warlords inside its territory in the first place, but with it also being unironic as it's a form of penance.
Anyhow, presented with the perfect excuse to attack this warlord in the form of all the property damage and loss of life by the skirmishes this warlord initiated, the LIR yeeted 10 Sagwalli for every 1 soldier this warlord had and didn't bother with deploying Tartles as it they were seen as a waste of oxygen and food for short-term wars and campaigns (in long wars, they're generally bred near the area of combat and then yeeted onto the battlefields).
Sugmi Boells, after leading his troops through several battles by taking advantage of how utterly impulsive Sagwalli already naturally are (and are made even more so by the conditions of their cult) to trick Sagwalli forces into doing dumb stuff like splitting up, bunching together and partaking in "glory charges", saw that things just weren't gonna work out too well for his warlord or the people in his territory as, despite their impulsiveness, Sagwalli are still incredible and resilient fighters.
So he shot and then decapitated his warlord's head on live holovision, making sure there were holovisions near Sagwalli forces so they were aware of the act, and declared peace. He was more or less just accepted as the new warlord, and had rulership over about a third of the territory of his predecessor (the rest of which now belonged to the LIR through conquest).
He died some years to his ship exploding while on his way to put down some pirates. Recovered security footage suggests a Skaters tripping over, most likely in an attempt at indoor skating, and saying the equivalent of "oh ****" in the engine room seconds before Sugmi, along with the 5,000 aboard his ship, were killed.
His girlfriend, a GMO human named Aela that had escaped from megacorp ownership in the CHG, took the reigns from there.
Sexuality
Bisexual. Had a gf but never found a gay/bi boi to get snuggly with, and so had to make do with homies that always said "no homo" after they were done, despite it being VERY homo for Sugmi.
Education
He and his siblings were taught "basic" (*coughs* basic by 2600s standards *coughs*) technological skills. Spent 7 years in military training.
Employment
Babysitter for his own siblings -> soldier in training -> soldier -> various ranks -> warlord.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Rising the ranks so quickly, becoming a warlord, bringing peace to his area of the LIR, was a fairly decent warlord during his time as ruler through the magical technique of not wasting resources on wars with other warlords and instead putting them into infrastructure.
Mental Trauma
Watched his grandma die of a heart-attack as she laughed "SUGMA BALLS HA!"
Oh, and sci-fi battles are extremely stressful experiences because you never know when the other side is gonna pull a planet-destroying weapon out of their asses and destroy you with debris from a blast to the nearest moon.
Intellectual Characteristics
Fairly clever... outwitting Sagwalli doesn't take much. It's not that they're stupid it's just that they don't use their brains before doing/saying things and let's be honest this probably applies to most so-called "idiots" we know.
Morality & Philosophy
A firm believer in the Warlord's Honour, which is a funny way of saying "no touching innocent civilians you need them to add to your ranks and make stuff for you after you conquer them", "screw pirates", "if they're choosing to put on the gear to fight you then you can do what you like... even if they're not really choosing to" and other such beautiful mantras.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Staying alive + ensuring others in his area stay alive
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Really bad at lots of civilian stuff like cooking that doesn't really matter considering his military career.
Likes & Dislikes
Likes: His GMO beast-on-the-battle-field gf, beating up pirates (as ironic as that is considering his grandma was one... unless it isn't?), alcohol, quiet things like reading
Dislikes: his job of managing his area of the LIR, pirates, cucumbers
Virtues & Personality perks
Very intelligent, kind to anyone who happens to be on his side
Vices & Personality flaws
Often underestimates others, likes to micromanage everything himself as he doesn't trust that anyone other than him is competent enough to handle anything, subtly racist towards artificial races
Hygiene
Why good sir the LIR has the best soap in existence, not least because they've gotta cater to the presence of creatures that are naturally far less hygienic than even our disgusting human selves!
Social
Social Aptitude
Not very social, often stutters, etc.

Quotes & Catchphrases
