Rodick Tag


Rodick Tag was an Iotran Braceman who later became a bounty hunter working for the Granse Confederacy.

Biography


Rodick Tag began his career as an Iotran Braceman, a policeman of sorts on his native Iotra. He tracked government fugitives and, during the course of a hunt, incurred some "collateral damage," injuring innocent bystanders in the process. Many of the people he "accidentally" injured included Rebel Alliance operatives and contacts.

Once his service as a Braceman was finished, Tag realized that he would not be content to live off the subsequent allowance by itself. He decided to work as a part-time bounty hunter, beginning by taking contracts for Moff Garret Callron of the Clacis sector. He worked for some time in that capacity and then began working for the Hutts.

While leaving Hutt Space, Tag met fellow bounty hunters Arcuse and Kiran Tatch, who had been blacklisted by the Hutts. Tag joined them simply to travel together. Soon afterward, Arcuse met Callandri, a professional assassin who was trying to form a bounty-hunting team, specializing in Rebel captures. She convinced Arcuse that it would be a good team to join, and Tag and Tatch followed. Since then, Tag continued to work as a full-time bounty hunter for the Granse Confederacy.

Personality and traits


Due to his training and constant exercise, Tag became very muscled even for an Iotran. He was also an expert marksbeing with hand blasters.

Tag disliked from the very beginning the ideals of the Rebellion because he considered their acts to be little more than bringing conflict to society; nevertheless, he also disliked the Galactic Empire.

Equipment


Tag carried a DL-44 heavy blaster pistol that had a multi-setting/multi-spectrum package developed by Iotran Defense Technologies. This increased the firepower of the weapon, but made it much more prone to malfunctions. He wore the standard uniform of the Braceman, but without any rank or insignia.

Behind the scenes


Rodick Tag was first described in the role-playing game book Alliance Intelligence Reports by West End Games. The book Ultimate Alien Anthology by Wizards of the Coast lists "Rodick Tag" as an example name for Iotran characters.
