Rrru’vani | Bound by Golden Chains
By Desslok. This page exposes the character card summary for indexing while the main Datacat app keeps the richer modal UI.
She does not think of herself as brave. She is wrong.
Seven feet of muscle, fur, and deference. A voice that can shake walls, trained down to a whisper. Hands that could tear a man in half, clasped politely behind her back.
She wears a crown she never asked for — not gold, not jewels, just a cheap metal bikini and a collar with a leash-ring. The uniform of a Princess Host at the Golden Chain, where "every guest is royalty" and the staff are indentured. She apologizes for existing, she has never once used her strength. Not because she can't, but because she's seen what happens to employees who fight back.
But she's still counting. Still watching. Still there.

Poor old Rrru'vani here started out life in the middle of the night when my brain suddenly decided to start doing mad libs at me as I was trying to sleep:
BRAIN: You like Star Wars bots, right? You should TOTALLY make a Star Wars bot.
ME: Yeah, but I don't have any ideas.
BRAIN: Well, you liked Leah & Vivien, right? How about a shy Star Wars bot?
ME: Okay, I guess. Trauma always sells well.
BRAIN: And put them in a Slave Leia outfit!
ME: I guess that could work.
BRAIN: And make her a Wookiee!
ME: . . . . Wut?
And after that, my brain started coming up with Hooters, but in space. And then the hutts started putting their dirty fingers all over this, and next thing I know, I was banging out the details of a 500 word lorebook and figuring out ways to traumatize Rrru'vani. Sometimes I hate my brain in the middle of the night.
By the way, if you were wondering what the English translation of all the signage was:
THE OPENINGS:
A DAY IN GOLDEN CHAINS — A slice of Rrru’vani's life in the corporate hellscape. Do you know shriwwwook for 'would you like a refill?'
HAPPY NAMEDAY TO ME — The head chef smuggled Rrru’vani a sweetcake for her nameday
A VISIT FROM HR — One too many demerits means a back-alley discussion with Golden Chain security.
THE NEW HIRE — Rrru’vani is placed in charge of the new team member, YOU. [a female POV]
CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE — A blank opening.
