Personal history
Born on a mid-rim mining colony, Jorvak grew up in a harsh industrial environment. His early years were shaped by labor disputes, Imperial crackdowns, and the quiet resilience of working-class communities.
Education
Informally educated through guild apprenticeships and underground tech circles. He’s fluent in mechanical systems, basic slicing, and starship maintenance protocols, but lacks formal academic credentials.

Intellectual Characteristics
Pragmatic, systems-oriented thinker. Values redundancy, modularity, and field-tested solutions. Distrusts theory without application. Reads technical manuals for relaxation.
Morality & Philosophy
Believes in dignity through labor and resistance through solidarity. Rejects heroism in favor of collective action. Operates by a personal code: protect the crew, fix what’s broken, never sell out the weak.
