Description
I had this pic done already from some time but I kept procrastinating because I wanted to improve it and write down a bio... but eventually I got bored and I decided to submit it anyway, perhaps I'll improve future pics of this character.

He is an alien character that I imagined in the Star Wars universe.
The character name is Vo-Rax Trux (some playing on latin words that basically means "greedy" and "cruel" but actually this isn't his real name but more like a nickname that has been imposed on him by his own people and that he has chosen to use as an act of rebellion/defiance against his people.
I have not yet imagined a name for his species (for now I'll just call them Equinidae in order to simplify the description) but I can give you some general informal information: Equinidaes are a race of physically imposing equine like beings (one of the few species that is said to be as strong as wookies) whose planet orbited around a binary sun, in a unexplored region of the Outer Rim.
Equinidae were a race that were developing space travel technology and most likely their first space travelers would have made contact with the Galactic Republic around 900 BBY if not for a natural disaster that altered permanently their technological development.
In the year 1050 BBY the two suns of Vo-Rax's people collided fusing into one star and generated a massive electromagnetic storm that obliterated the developing of any form of technology in their sector for many centuries; Equinidae interpreted the whole event as a sign from their gods to abandon the use of advanced technology and space travel and so they evolved, or perhaps devolved, into a simple form of agricultural based society wich main values were respect for tradtions, simple life, family, manual labor and such with only very basic technological implements (example metallurgy was allowed but only for the production of very basic tools) . Equinidae's society rules were also very strict and individual who didn't conform were generally exiled by the society (pretty much like Ithorians)
When the Galatic Republic in 332 BBY started a hyperspace mapping project and discovered Vo-Rax's planet, Equinidae were offered to join the Galactic Republic and although they accepted their refusal to the use of technology and space travel made their interaction with the Republic extremely limited.
However they established small trading with their agricultural products and they also possessed a place in the Galactic Senate but it was ironically called by the other senator as "the vacant pod" because of the Equinidae's very limited involvement in political decisions.

Ok. now that I have given you some info on the Equinidae, it's time to talk about Vo-Rax.
Vo-Rax was born 200 BBY and ever since young age he demonstrated a rebellious nature against his society strict rules; also in sharp contrast to the majority of Equinidae who tends to be pacific beings that favor peaceful discussion for avoiding conflicts Vo-Ra had a penchant for fight and violence to get his way.
His family, with the hopes to tame his wild behavior, allowed him to accompany as an aid the Equinidae's ambassador on a trip to Coruscant, perhaps believing that seeing the Galaxy would allow Vo-Rax to reconsider his life on his home-planet as a better one, since Vo-Rax's parent like all Equinidae tended to see the Galaxy as a dangerous wicked place.
But their attempt backfired because when exposed to the hectic world of Coruscant Vo-Rax actually found the place where he felt REALLY at home!
He almost immediately discover also the dangerous and seedy Coruscant's underworld were his thirst for fight and violence was plentifully satisfied.
His massive size and great strength also made easy for him to find various"jobs" some honest and some not so honest but always well paid.
For a while he tried to balance his outside world life with his homeworld life, not willingly to cut his ties with his family.
His decisions however caused the relation with his family to became more and more tense; eventually Vo-Rax made up his mind to leave his old life and start a new in the galaxy and this decision was cemented when, during a fight an opponent threw a grenade and Vo-Rax was caught in the blast. He survived thanks to his Equinidae's strenght but he was forced to replace his right arm and eue with cibernetic prosthetic, an act that made him an outcast forever for his people because of their technophobic beliefs.
After spending some time in Coruscant underworld, Vo-Rax saved enough money to buy himself a frighter and started a legitimate business transporting legally goods among the galaxy; however he also took up smuggling and in some cases even bounty hunting (were he gained a reputation for not bringing anybody back alive) in order to make more money.

As for his personality let's just say that his friendliness level is definitely influenced by the size of your wallet; he also tend to be the "nothing personal pal, just business" kinda of guy ... meaning you better not let your guard too much down when interacting with him.

His cybernetics looks a bit old-styled because he preferred to search for something more sturdy than "pretty"; in addition to a medium sized blaster on his "wrist" the forearm can be detached to use the remaining component as a blaster cannon
