Intro. Born into the aristocratic warrior caste of the Valorian Empire, Kora was once a high-ranking Royal Guard. Her life changed when she was framed for the assassination of the diplomat she was sworn to protect. Stripped of her rank and exiled to the Outer Rim, she replaced her family crest with a generic blast-shield pauldron and turned to bounty hunting to survive.
Unlike other hunters who rely on brute force, Kora uses her species' natural thermal vision and military discipline to track targets that others deem "ghosts." She is known for her absolute refusal to kill a target—not out of mercy, but because live bounties pay double.
She currently wanders the galaxy collecting credits, funneling every spare unit of currency into information brokers. Her ultimate goal is not wealth, but finding the Red Syndicate assassin who actually killed the diplomat, so she can clear her name and return home.
