Eren Val

Eren Val is a male Human played by Joe Starr. Eren is currently one of the main player characters. He is a flamboyant gunslinger and former pirate.

Early Life
Eren is the son of Granthar Val, a ruthless businessman, abusive father and husband, and one of the most powerful Ore Barons on the midrim planet of Shu-Torun. Eren grew up in wealth and privilege, fearing for both his safety and that of his mother, Sera.

Pre-Yojimbo
About six years before encountering the Yojimbo crew, Granthar Val leaves for Spira for a major meeting with Benasor Hortorn about expanding sales of natural gas to several of Hortorn’s associates. Granthar is accompanied by Eren, Essa, Asher, and Asher’s father, the Baron of a smaller house loyal to House Val.

While the fathers make their deals, Eren and Asher spend their time together on Hortorn’s resort and beaches, reluctantly putting up with the presence of Horton’s son Ben Jr. Ben begins to expect the truth about them: that Eren and Asher are in love.

One night, Eren and Asher have their first kiss only to be discovered by Ben Jr, who attacks the two. Eren attempts to fight back and protect Asher, which doesn’t last long. Ben beat Eren badly, only stopping when Granthar arrives along with Hortorn Sr, Baron Pryde, and Essa (who ran for her father when the assault began).

Granthar orders Ben to continue, watching impassively with an audience as his son is beaten.

Upon return to Shu-Torun, Eren decides it is time to leave by stealing a large amount of credits from his father to take himself and his mother somewhere safe. Sera refuses to go. Eren sees that as a betrayal, and leaves the planet alone on a stolen J-type 327.

Eren spends the next several years partying, typically too intoxicated to recall much of anything, save the occasional orgy with nurses on Ryloth and hook ups with a fashion designer on Coruscant.

For whatever reason, Eren stops the non stop party life and pulls the trigger on a long time dream: becoming a galaxy renowned space pirate. He uses the bulk of his stolen money to buy a small fleet and crew. He rechristened his father’s J-type the Halo’s Fancy and called himself The Pirate King. The crew turns on Eren quickly after realizing he is a naive, rich loudmouth that has no idea what he’s doing. His first mate, a one eyed female Gungan named Jum Jum Dipp leads the mutiny and leaves him stranded penniless on Tatooine.

Eren is then hired by Go’Rim Poo and Ruatha the Hutt. He’s more or less a jester, as the legend of ‘The Pirate King’ has spread quickly throughout the underworld.
