We could do something like reskin the Korrunai Force Using Tradition (Clone Wars Campaign Guide page 57). There are talents there that let you bond with an Akk Dog, maybe use a similar beast from the Hutt gladiatorial pits. Though Akk Dogs work within that context as well. Since you wouldn't likley be a native of the planet that tradition comes from, we could easily call it whatever, but the basic principle would be the same. If you wanted to go that route I could look for some comparable Beasts to use in place of the Akk Dog.
There is also a talent in KOTR (page 53) called Beast Trick as well. Lets you use mind trick on beast with INT of 2 or less.
I like the idea of the force sensitive kid ( I am a sucker for Ezra from Rebels
)
The adventure we are in, the current group is searching for information to locate a Hutt crime lord. So I could insert you at the spot the hutt is (but that may take time for the party to get to yet). Or we could insert your character earlier. I anticipate the party will be in several seedier systems for a bit.
We are level 3 currently and used the point buy for character stats. I will re-post the character gen guidelines for the game and the house rules we have (we made characters a little more survivable) once we get our game sections going. I don't google cache or wayback has those threads though =( So I will likely have to retype them up again.
